... should be treated as full members and meet the Charity Commission's requirement that the majority of Council members must be resident in the United Kingdom. The amended By-Laws, if agreed, would read as follows (with amendments underlined): "2 . The following persons shall be members of the Society, namely: (a ) any person, normally resident in Europe , who had subscribed to the Society prior to the General Meeting at which the Constitution was adopted, and (b ) any person or institutional body admitted to membership in accordance with these by-laws." By-Law 3, which deals with associate membership, would be conferred on "any person normally resident outside Europe". ...
412. The Scientific Reception System [Books] [de Grazia books]
... , or the long run. ' If a postulated model of the scientific reception system fits a case well, and is believed to be either personally unjust [1 ] or socially (scientifically) harmful, then the question will naturally arise whether the case should be reheard, as well as whether this condition is typical, this model is normal, and the public or social policies (rules) of scientific behaviour should be revised. Four models appear to explain a good deal of scientific reception-system behaviour. They may be called the Rationalistic Model, the Indeterminacy Model, the Power Model, and the Dogmatic Model. THE RATIONALISTIC RECEPTION SYSTEM The rationalistic reception system is openly displayed by ...
413. In the Days of Seti I and Ramses II [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... CONTENTS "Ramessides, Medes and Persians" by Emmet J. Sweeney 42 VELIKOVSKIAN Vol. V, No. 2 CHAPTER 4 IN THE DAYS OF SETI I AND RAMSES II The End of the Theban Dynasty Whilst the fall of Egypt's mighty 18th Dynasty in the chaotic events that followed the reign of Akhnaton is normally regarded as traumatic, it is not normally regarded as a violent episode. Yet, abundant evidence exists to show that the extinction of Akhnaton's line was far from peaceful, and that civil war as well as foreign invasion marked the age. The decline of the 18th Dynasty was the subject of one of Velikovsky's most fascinating and insightful books, Oedipus and Akhnaton ( ...
414. Ice Caps, Continental Shift and the Break up of Pangaea [Journals] [SIS Review]
... dramatic proof of the predicted sea water injection mentioned above and the model of Continental Shift described here. In spite of difficulties, KTB yielded valuable information: Predicted' electrical conduction turned out right, KTB encountered much higher temperatures than expected', KTB failed to find structures predicted from seismic wave patterns' but the strength of the rock increased normally' until reaching a depth of 6 to 7.5km'. At that depth it encountered great volumes of saline water somewhat concentrated above normal sea water'. These observations confirm the model of Continental Shift given 40 years ago but improved in several revisions since then. Clearly the great quantities of salt water were encountered at the level ...
415. Jaynes anyone? [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... you occasionally read about them in cases such as those of Joanne of Arc or David Berkowicz (Son of Sam), but they are rare, and such stories do not usually have happy endings (getting burned at the stake is not a happy ending...). Jaynes, however, claims that such auditory hallucinations were perfectly normal just three thousand years ago and that, in fact, the entire manner in which men used their brains and minds was then totally different from the way in which we use them now, and that the mechanism involved this right-side analog to the Wernecke area of the brain. He uses terms like "bicameral mind", "bicameral ...

... a sphinx; however, it was usually not Amenhotep but Tiy who was fashioned in the form of a sphinx. Following the long-standing tradition of a male-faced sphinx, Queen Hatshepsut had been sculptured as a sphinx with a beard suspended from the chin. But Tiy had her sphinx made with a woman's face. Furthermore, for the first time female breasts were added to the lion's body of the sphinx: there was no doubt that it became a female. It also bad wings, while the Sphinx of Gizeh and other early ones were as a rule wingless. In the past the sphinx had been represented in a lying or standing position, as if motionless, but this was ...

... seaport, and this map shows it in relation to modern Eilath and Aqaba, Tell el Kheleifeh is nearly half-way along the shore. Note this little island, Jeziret el Far'ûn which is an alternative site for Ezeon-Geber which I now favour. Glueck was excavating Tell el Kheleifeh in three seasons, 1938-1940.- Tell el Kheleifeh is not a normal tell', it doesn't stand up like a huge mound as tells normally do. A plan of Ezeon-Geber, the first phase was a very small settlement, from the second phases onwards it was enlarged to this size, there was a big wall around it and a double gateway here; it seems to be quite well fortified. ...
420. The present state of Radiocarbon Dating [Articles]
... , or whatever, in 2950 BC, what that really means is that there is a 95% chance that it falls within this 400-year bracket, so it's not quite the same sort of thing. Clearly it means that the actual use of radiocarbon dating is a statistical rather than a simple dating technique. The accuracy of dates: a normal date produced by a normal lab will be something like+ 80 years, so at that 95% chance that means a single date will be somewhere within a 320-year bracket. For high precision dates, that is dates where the counting time taken for making the sample is much longer than that used for a normal date, we can ...
