... From: Solaria Binaria, by Alfred De Grazia and Earl R. Milton Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER SEVENTEEN Time, Electricity and Quantavolution With the model of Solaria Binaria constructed here along the lines of short-time electrical quantavolution, we have presented physical and cultural evidence of several major historical happenings, as well as some lesser events that need not be summarized here. 1. The succession of great gods in human history coincides with a succession of ages of destruction and renewal that may tentatively be numbered at seven. These are carried in Table 6. 2. Human nature originated abruptly with a complex culture in the first age of binary instability, precipitated by electrical and hormonal changes, ...
792. Cheers and Hisses [Books] [de Grazia books]
... complete case in the three articles, with excellent refereeing throughout, was a historic achievement in challenging and improving methodology in the Behavioral Sciences. I particularly admire the way you did not go into the controversy of the correctness of Velikovsky's theories, leaving that to the specialists concerned. Your editorial statement of the issues involving the mores of both the physical scientists and the social scientists as scientists in accepting and sifting new scientific work is a skillfully done job. On the humanities side Mose Hadas, Horace Kallen, William T. Couch, Jacques Barzun, William Sloane and August Heckscher wrote Deg supportively. Medicine, social work, psychiatry, and law were among the fields of applied science ...
793. Could Someone Explain "Electrogravatics" in Simpler Terms [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 1996:1 Home | Issue Contents Newsgroups: alt.sci.physics.new-theories Could Someone Explain "Electrogravatics" in Simpler Terms.The Anti-gravity Handbook (revised ed.) compiled by D. Hatcher Childress Published by - Adventures Unlimited Press 303 Main St., Kempton, Illinois 60949 USA ISBN: 0-932813-20-8 Pub date: 1993 (First edition was in 1985). "My library research shows that as early as 1917, a Professor Nipher had found that the weight of substances could be reduced (become negative) by the application of electrostatic charges. (Science, Sept. 21, 1917, page 173). Dr. Charles ...
794. Notes on this issue: Pensee IVR IX [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 4 No 4: (Fall 1974) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered IX" Home | Issue Contents Notes on this issue:The radioactive decay of an atom- an event as fundamental to theoretical physics as it is mysterious. Nothing illustrates the mystery more clearly than the characterization of radioactive decay as "random." But now that characterization is being challenged by a number of researchers perhaps most effectively by Drs. John Lynde Anderson and George W. Spangler (p . 31). The decay "constant" may not be constant at all, if these two physicists are correct, and the enigma of an apparently random, "uncaused" phenomenon ( ...
795. Key figures of the Amarna period [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... from a wide variety of places. He reigned a little over 50 years. Conventionally dated in the mid-15th century BCE, the New Chronology places his reign from late in the 12th century to the start of the 11th century. Amenhotep 2 A son of Thutmose 3, he was appointed heir shortly before his father's death. He apparently combined physical and military skill with cruelty towards his enemies. He campaigned several times against Mitanni. He reigned for just over 25 years, from late in the 15th to early in the 14th century BCE conventionally, or the first half of the 11th century with NC dates. Thutmose 4 A son of Amenhotep 2, he seems to have been ...
796. Science-Fiction and Collective Amnesia: "Dragon's Egg" [Journals] [Kronos]
... events in life which we make bearable by giving them order.(2 ) Plot, curiously, presents a very special kind of order indeed. For in every plot, whether its action is external to the characters or internal to them, there occurs what the Elizabethans deliberately used to call the "catastrophe" - a coming together of physical or psychic events which radically alter characters' lives and perceptions and which, in one way or another, resolve the conflict between or within them. We like to call such a resolution - note the catastrophic term - the "climax ". Good fiction is, by its very nature, catastrophic. Uneventful lives drifting on wide, ...
797. "Just Plainly Wrong": A Critique of Peter Huber (Second Installment) [Journals] [Kronos]
... those other writings in which the matters at issue have been treated in further detail. Huber begins with the traditional assumption that the Ninsianna tablets present 21 years of observations, which modern scholars number from 1 to 17 and from 19 to 21, with a gap for the "missing" Year 18. But in fact 1 to 17 are physically separated from 19 to 21 by nearly fifty lines of extraneous material (the so-called "artificial insertion"), and we are not given the slightest clue as to what the relationship between the two sets of observations might be. I shall use the modern numbering system just for convenience. But it should be taken with a large dose ...
798. Stellar Spectra [Journals] [Aeon]
... dictated by two factors: the calculated low density that stars appear to have and the fuel requirement for the thermonuclear fusion model. The spectra of only a few stars feature dominant hydrogen or helium lines. In the majority of cases, metal lines dominate the spectra. As a result, astronomers assume that the characteristics of the spectra reflect the physical state of the stars more than they do the stars' chemistry. Spectrum lines, though generally identifiable from terrestrial experiments, show stellar components which arise from energy transitions not normally observed in the laboratory. These wavelengths are sometimes predictable from first principles. Independently of other factors, the complexity of an element's spectrum depends upon how clustered the ...
799. Empedocles, Healer of the Mind (Part II) [Journals] [Kronos]
... First, defenders of spherical universes are usually quite uncomfortable about what is outside them, and do not readily allow things to go there. Second, Empedocles, who denied the existence of the void, could not even allow a void outside the universe for Love or Strife to flow into! Love and Strife, we must remember, are physical substances, like fluids; there must be a void out there for them to fill, or material for them to displace. Neither alternative would be acceptable to Empedocles. There is no void, and the universe is spherical. Never mind asking what's out there. There's no there there, not even a void. This awkwardness befalls ...

... ,25, NASA TT 143. Oddly enough, the person who first brought these data to my attention left out some data and misplotted other points in order to make the data fit the theory. 32.
