... count on their fingers'. He suggests that a spherical pebble might be found (or simulated in clay) and used to test the level of a surface. This would certainly work with a ball bearing and a sheet of glass; but what is the Neolithic equivalent? (This also implies a developed theory of the constant direction of gravity, the concept of sphericity, i.e ., constant radius in three dimensions based on an invisible centre, and the concept of a true plane, etc.) Next a vertical stick was added (straight line concept/construction?), its verticality being tested by using a second stick to trace out a circle around ...
312. The Parting of the Waters of the Red Sea [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... can be calculated approximately from the formula dy i. Bv = dx D. g where i is the current density in the water, Bv is the vertical component of magnetic flux density, D is the density of the water (1025kg/m3 - somewhat higher than that of pure water because of the salinity), and g is gravity acceleration (9 .81m/s2). In the model, i is 160 amperes per square metre, and at the water's edge B equals 6.4 tesla (64,000 gauss), which makes the slope equal to 0.10. The power density dissipated by the current density i is i2/G watts ...

314. Anhydride Theory: A New Theory of How Petroleum and Coal are Generated [Journals] [Aeon]
... " converts to petroleum, is parlous at best. A further objection to the theory of biomass conversion to petroleum arises from its distribution at various depth ranges. In Fig. 1, showing the conventional view of biogenesis, the distribution predicted is not confirmed by observation. That is because kerogen, transforming progressively into bitumens and thence to higher gravity oils at increasing depths and pressures, should result in prominent resources of black oils and bitumens at generation depths. In fact, worldwide, black oils and bitumens are mostly near, or at, the surface, well above the supposed generation depths. The lower diagram of Fig. 1 conforms to observation and to Anhydride Theory. The ...

316. The Earth's Magnetism (Geomagnetism) [Books]
... angle formed by the north magnetic pole with this axis). The Earth's magnet thus appears to be distorted. The line lying half-way between the south and the north magnetic poles forms the magnetic equator (there is no dip of the magnet on this line). Thus a magnet, free to move in every direction round its centre of gravity, will come to rest: (a ) Oriented in a horizontal plane in a general direction corresponding to the north-south magnetic direction. The angle existing between this direction and the geographic north-south direction is called the declination(D ). (b ) Oriented in a vertical plane which corresponds theoretically to the vertical plane passing through the Earth's ...
317. Apophoreta - 6 [Journals] [Catastrophist Geology]
... and in large-scale vertical movements which were thought to be responsible for the disappearance of land bridges ' and for the emergence of new*continental areas. Although some of the processes involved, especially the vertical movements, were thought of as sudden, the formation of nappes was visualised as a geologically slow process. Since that time, however, gravity tectonics was found to be an important mechanism in the generation of some nappes, and largescale mass movements, up to sizes comparable to those of nappes, were shown to have occurred (cf. Voight, 1978). Some nappes were even found to have overridden topographic surfaces (High Calcareous Alps of Savoy), implying a rapid ...
318. Saturnists Play Marbles [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... a time when the events and celestial forms associated with them were no longer present. Of this collective urge, storytelling was only a small part. Of course, in the transmission of the stories over the centuries, there is not just a progressive degradation of the original integrity, but a natural psychological effect of distance and unfamiliarity. The gravity of the experience could only be diminished with time. And the meaning of the story elements would increasingly appear irrational or out of place, finding no explanation in natural experience. That is, of course, the reason why, with the rise of Greek rationalism, the mythical themes of tragedy became the themes of comedy as well. ...

... tossed outside Jupiter's orbit.(8 ) This diminishes the poignancy of the example because Venus is not considered to have behaved in this way. The appeal to the "Laws of Cassini" to explain the circularisation of Venus's orbit(9 ) is ludicrous. They are simply not laws, but mere musings on par with Aristotle's notions about gravity. Venus's orbit would not be reduced and circularised by trading tidal friction for orbital energy, thereby keeping Venus molten. Because the orbital period of Venus has, in all likelihood, been greater than the rotational period of the Sun, tidal friction would work to increase, not decrease, Venus's orbit - just as happens between Moon and ...

... gives us laboratory demonstrations. The conclusion? Electricity is the one force which can produce this unique scarring, visible on virtually all of the solid bodies revealed to us by space age exploration. Overviews on the electrical nature of comets, the "electrical sun", the flow of electricity through and between galaxies, and the electrical underpinnings of gravity make this CD a terrific contribution to a potential new science of the third millennium. The CD production is a co-venture between Thornhill and film producer Robert Dunlap.- "REMEMBERING THE END OF THE WORLD" VHS $29.95 A feature-length documentary "A groundbreaking vision!"
