... From: SIS Workshop No. 2 (July 1978) Home | Issue Contents Letters (The following letter from the correspondence columns of the current Journal of the B.A .A . (Vol. 88, No. 3, April 1978),was submitted by Michael G. Reade, London. Mr. N. P. Warren has kindly given me permission to publish it and while wishing the Society well in its endeavours, nevertheless adds that he has "never been favourably impressed by Velikovsky's theories, which are at least in violation of the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum". Perhaps one of our members with scientific expertise may wish to comment. ...
252. The Olympian Rulers [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Ram is associated with Fricka, Frigga, Frye, who is Venus (Venerdi in Italian is Friday in English) and who is said to be the wife of Odin (Wotan) who is the Teutonic Mercury or Hermes. It is Beaumont's theory, which deserves credence, that the pillars of Hercules refer to the large number of stone columns (dolmens) that line the coasts of Southern Britain and Northwestern France leading into the English Channel [42]. However, not Hercules, but Hermes is the god commemorated so strikingly there that the passage was known to the ancients. (Hercules is most clearly identified with the planet Mars.)[43] Beaumont relies partly ...

... , consider the other separately. (If some particular words or phrases bother you, have Doris phone me today regarding my OK of possible changes.) I repeat my request for written reasons for your censoring my attempts to make these simple statements to Skeptical Inquirer readers. At this point, I am not interested in promises regarding future letters column space, since what can one make of Council's word, after its recent clandestine "election" and customary secrecy regarding Abell's upcoming elevation? --Dennis Rawlins, Associate Editor Frazier replied the next day by decreeing that he would allow no changes (sic). Any announcement about nonreelection to the Council would have to be carried in Skeptical Inquirer's ...

Column 1 contains the measured orbital distance from the Sun. Column 2 contains values calculated from the normally used Bode's formula. Column 3 has values computed with the modified equation. Some of these attempts have been successful. One equation has been designed that accurately describes the orbits of the planets as well as the orbits of the moons of Jupiter ...
255. Northwest Indian Myths of Catastrophe [Articles]
... between Albuquerque and Gallup, New Mexico. But the story is now incorporated in the traditional stories of these Pueblos and the sequence of natural events has been overshadowed by the new materials which have religious significance. If you stand at the base of the Devils Tower and look up you will observe that about a third of the way down the column the rock looks very weathered, as if it stood out in the elements for quite a while. The lower two-thirds of the formation appears to be virtually untouched by any weathering process. The Kiowa, Sioux, and Cheyenne stories of this feature all involve a bear chasing a group of little girls who are out gathering berries. Only ...
256. The Mixtec Tree of Origin [Journals] [Aeon]
... circles and arrows to portray this. However, taken as a whole, I feel that the artist was instead trying to show that the tree was a dramatic, constantly moving and changing object. Fred Jueneman and Dwardu Cardona have both remarked on the appearance and pyrotechnics of the Saturnian configuration. [22] The diagonal patterning suggests a twisting column and the curls may be the buds from which occasional swastika-like arms grew. The increasing size of the downward circles, which is not obvious in the diagram supplied by von Hagen, is akin to the apparent enlargement of Mars as it slid down the polar column, approaching closer to Earth as per Talbott's and Cochrane's scenario. The downward ...

... turbulent motion' and that this is evidence of convection. (M . Minnaert, op. cit., p. 169.) "J . A. Hynek, as director of Dearborn University at Northwestern University, spelled it out for the non-specialist: `Most astronomers are now fairly certain that these bright cells are the tops of columns of hot gases being rapidly transported from "subsolarian" depths to the surface. As they cool, these columns of hot gases began to sink. And as an effect of cooling they lose their brilliance, appear dark by contrast to hot ascending columns . . . . It seems that the Sun's surface is like a patchwork of blindingly ...
258. Thoth Vol III, No. 4: Feb 15, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... something similar in his computer modeling (only he did the simple thing of including the electrostatic force as if there were no shielding by plasma in space) and derived the rapid emplacement of Venus in its present orbit from one that originated out near Jupiter or Saturn. It is more difficult to model the charge exchange between bodies in the plasma column of the Saturnian configuration. But I can imagine there might have been differential effects involving radial distance from the axis of the polar column which might act in such a way as to stabilise the planetary alignment. Mars could have oscillated up and down the column, acting like an oscillating charge carrier, between Venus and the Earth.- ...
259. Some Detailed Evidence from Egypt Against Velikovsky's Revised Chronology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... numerous observations. Among them is the architecture of the two reigns, which Dr Velikovsky examines. Ramesses III is well known for his temples at Karnak and Medinet Habu. These belong emphatically to the tradition of New Kingdom building, while Nectanebo I's surviving monuments at Philae and Luxor contain elements unknown before the Late Period, such as complex floral column capitals and broken lintels over doorways. One last inscription may be cited to show that the revised chronology cannot stand up to the scrutiny advised in the opening of this paper. This is on the walls of the tomb of [hieroglyphics] in the Siwa Oasis. The decoration of the tomb is completely in keeping with styles derived from ...
260. Thoth Vol IV, No 13: Aug 31, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... in the visual conjunction of Mars and Venus as they drew nearer to each other in the configuration. From this conjunction arose the repeated myth of the hero's liaison with the daughter or spouse of a renowned "king," or the hero consorting with his own mother. 4) In connection with the descent of the god, a cosmic column appeared, a luminous stream stretching along the world axis. This cosmic column will be the world mountain, or the mountain upon which the hero was "exposed" at birth, or the mythic river into which the hero was cast at birth. By this association the hero himself was inseparably linked to the world pillar. Originally, ...
