... articles, the arch-manipulators of the data on the tablets have been the uniformitarian scholars, in their attempts to make the evidence conform to conventional astronomical theory. If Mr Brown's dyslexia progresses, he has every hope of one day joining that illustrious scientific vaudeville act, Sagan, Asimov & Moore (which will be known from now on in this column as "The Sagasimoore" as an economy measure). His dogmatic stance appears even more bizarre in view of his very clear exposition elsewhere in the book of the problematic nature of much of the astronomical evidence - the multiplicity of possible sighting lines and markers, the ambiguity of horizon markers, the identification of the celestial body observed and ...
162. The Devil's Advocate [Books] [de Grazia books]
... a small fractions of all events that have occurred and all changes that have shaped the present surface of the globe. One anomaly or exception does not undo a rule or make a new rule; how do you know, or how does your reader know, the ratio of exceptions to the normal cases? You make much of your revolutionary column; it is merely the geological column extended into the atmosphere. You will have as much difficulty proving a recent catastrophe in every column on Earth as geologists have in finding a real geological column with all ages represented by it. Geologists may not be able to prove that a certain discontinuity is a product of depositional slowdown, or slowly ...
163. Apophoreta - 5 [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... From: Catastrophist Geology Year 3 No. 1 (June 1978) Home | Issue Contents Apophoreta - 5 After a banquet in ancient Greece, guests received some eatable or drinkable gifts, APOPHORETA - things to be carried off', to take home. On this page a column is published in which provocative hypotheses are presented. They may serve to stimulate thought and research - and the correspondence for the Comments' column of this journal. It is commonly stated that at an interface some 2 900km from the surface of the Earth the phase changes from solid to liquid and the composition from SIMA to NIFE (other hypotheses have been proposed), because of the extinction of ...
164. A Chronology for the Middle Kingdom and Israel's Egyptian Bondage - II. Israel in Egypt [Journals] [SIS Review]
... by Rosemary Burnard. Manetho does not list individual names or lengths of reigns for the kings of Dynasty XIII. For such details we depend on the Turin Canon, a papyrus of XIXth-Dynasty date which originally gave the names and reign lengths of all the kings of Egypt to roughly the end of the Hyksos period. The entries are listed in columns, each column containing between 25 and 30 names. Even in its fragmentary condition, the Turin Canon gives over a hundred names for the period following Dynasty XII. This figure is a problem to historians working with the conventional Sothic-based chronology, which allows only two centuries from the end of Dynasty XII to the start of Dynasty XVIII. ...
165. Aeon Volume VI, Number 5: Contents [Journals] [Aeon]
... Cardona. A Review of Wells's Review of Sun, Moon, And Sothis Varves And Bok Globules Page 18: To Begin the World Over Again Mel Acheson A philosophical call to see the Universe as it really is, filled with electromagnetic forces and electrically conductive plasma phenomena. Page 21: Prelude to Creation Dwardu Cardona An investigation of the sustained columnar plasma ejection which formed the proto-Saturnian polar axis, and the dynamic fluctuations it underwent due to the instabilities it self-generated on entry into the Solar System just prior to proto-Saturn's unforgettable flare-up. Page 55: Ladder to Heaven Ev Cochrane A detailed study of the celestial ladder recorded in the mytho-historical record and its relationship to the columnar plasma effluvium emanating ...
166. Velikovsky's Sources Volume One [Books]
... as manna (Ex.16:l3) to the hungry Israelites. Next, V sees the pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night as the Venus Comet itself, On WIC p.86, he writes: "The great ball of the comet retreated, then again approached the earth, shrouded in a dark column of gases which locked like a pillar of smoke during the day and of fire at night .. ." But there are several problems with this: (i ) Nowhere, either in Exodus or elsewhere (i .e . outside the pages of WIC), is the famous pillar of cloud/fire ever associated with the ...
167. The Crescent [Books]
... earth" and "moon." (29) The Crescent and Mount In all ancient myths of the lost paradise, the land of peace and plenty rests upon a cosmic pillar- "earth's highest mountain." One of the peculiarities of the Mount is that it possesses two peaks, rising to the right and left of the central column. The Egyptian Mount of Glory (Khut) reveals two peaks between which rests the Aten or enclosed sun . Depicted by this sign are "the two great mountains on which Re appears." (30) And what is most interesting about the Egyptian symbol of the cleft peak is that it finds strikingly similar parallels in other lands ...
168. Further Comments on the Saturnian Configuration Theory (Forum) [Journals] [Aeon]
... was at a luncheon chat with C. J. Ransom during the 1974 AAAS Conference in San Francisco that he relayed the information concerning the experiment he'd conducted at General Dynamics some years earlier. It was there that he described the multi-armed plasma figures mentioned by Cochrane. [32] From this I myself extrapolated the magnetohydrodynamic character of the Polar Column which, at the time, was still in something of a rudimentary development stage. The following year, I incorporated the bare-bones in my 1975 collection of short essays, [33] and again several years later in IR&D . [34] Ralph Juergens was intrigued by the idea, but he never contributed further, for ...

... space show the aurora to consist of a central polar cap surrounded by an auroral oval which varies according to the degree of electrical disturbance. Where the field lines became more energetic and excited particles they could be seen in the form of a cross. Where the Earth's magnetic field lines crowd in towards the poles they have the effect of a column which, again, would be made visible by the ionic particles which were excited. Molecules of oxygen, entering the ionosphere, would be dissociated and in this state, when highly electrically excited, they give out a green glow but where less excited they give out a red glow, the two colours which are mythologically inextricably bound to ...
170. The Saturn Thesis [Journals] [Aeon]
... on behalf of the Universal Monarch. Mars as murderer of his own father. Mars as interrex and usurper. Mars as messenger or shaman moving along the world axis. Mars as prototype of the trickster and fool. The great crescent appearing on Saturn and turning with the cycle of day and night. Formation of the polar mountain or cosmic column, related directly to the movements of Mars along the polar axis. Formation of a circumpolar band, intimately tied to the activity of the spiraling Venus comet. The presence of the chaos hordes, large volumes of comet-like debris moving in shifting relationships to the participating planets, stretching between planets and giving the evolving polar configuration many of its ...
