... the oceans came back to the earth via the poles; slowly and steadily as the march of ages, for they had to float as canopies from the home of rings over the equator - the beginning place of annular processes. In this march of canopies, then, we must see the tread of ages. Watery vapors must fall in polar latitudes as snow, and in medial lands as floods. The geologist knows full well that the ages have had their sweep of waters. Even in the more modern geologic time deluges of incalculable magnitude and power have swept the continents. The track of the glacier, to the reign of inveterate winter and snow who does not know that ...
322. Thoth Vol VI, No 4: June 30, 2002 [Journals] [Thoth]
... think the story goes something like this If we assume that the charge of an electron and proton always remains the same it means that their effective inertial mass must be lower. If we take Sansbury's model of electrons and protons - being composed of smaller orbiting charges - then it means that the electrons and protons are subject to a lower ambient polarizing electrostatic force - in other words, gravity. That is borne out by the high initial velocity and subsequent slowing of quasars as their redshift falls. Herbig-Haro objects should show the same effects because in both cases I think that the plasma focus (PF) effect, that spits out jets and quasars. I believe that the PF traps ...
323. The River of Ocean [Journals] [SIS Review]
... been identified with the Indian god Varuna, whom the Rig Veda equates with Agni and thus, inadvertently, with Saturn" [49]. (The name Saturn here refers to the Saturnian configuration which included other planetary members. As a member of this configuration, Agni might additionally have stood for Mars which was embedded' in the configuration's polar column [50]). Complementary to this, the same Rig Veda informs us that Agni was the sea: He only [Agni] is the sea, holder of treasures' [51]. Likewise, Varuna was known as the lord of the waters [52], these being recognised as having been the waters of ...
324. The AAAS Symposium on Velikovsky [Books]
... of healthy behavior one would expect under these conditions, as Storer argues? Geoffrey Burbidge, another world respected scientist, described the sociological techniques used by the scientific community to destroy Arp in the 1980's, just as they used against Velikovsky in the 1940's and 1950's, and continue to use even today. "The community of astronomers is totally polarized by this argument [about the meanings and interpretations of red shifts]. Most do not want to hear about it. The strong disbelievers hold that those who propose or believe in this hypothesis are variously naive, mistaken, ignorant of how to do statistics, overly zealous or worse. They claim that [the results Arp presents as ...
325. Saturn's Cosmos [Books]
... solar image, then one must assume not only that the sun worshippers around the world instinctively adopted the sun to a more complicated abstract form, but that every ancient sun-cult drew upon the same abstraction. Why? The enclosed sun-cross is not an abstraction. It simply records what the ancients originally saw. It is a literal drawing of the polar sun, passed down from earliest antiquity: the image of Saturn, the Universal Monarch. Rarely do archaeologists, seeking to interpret the widespread "sun" symbols, consult ancient mythology. Yet the myths explain the symbols, and the symbols illuminate the myths. Largely overlooked by archaeologists are the hundreds upon hundreds of myths and liturgies focusing ...
326. Some Implications of Saunders' Lunar Hypothesis [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Moon and Earth in Myth and History In a private communication dated 8th March 2004, Dwardu Cardona, whose knowledge of the ancient records is formidable, takes a dismissive view of Saunders' hypothesis. He wote, inter alia: (i ) Neolithic spiral patterns have nothing to do with the Moon but a lot to do with the plasmatic polar column [2 ]; (ii) as far as I can see there is nothing in either mytho-historical record or in present astronomical knowledge that even hints at a 180 degree lunar turn-over at any time in history or pre-history'. His letter begins by admitting that his early rejection of Warlow's theory of Earth's inversion [3 ] has ...
327. Discussion [Journals] [Aeon]
... SISR VI [1982], p. 74). Field is wrong when he indicates that the Earth could be turned over by a torque exerted on the equatorial bulge. Such a torque could do no more than tilt the axis slightly, as Bass had indicated. As Slabinski admonished Warlow, an inversion also requires a torque about the polar, or spin, axis. It is the difficulty of this requirement that leads to the immense size of passing cosmic bodies to produce an inversion in a day. Warlow did not connect his model of an inversion to a realistic trajectory. He merely treated the encounter as though a foreign body acted on Earth at a fixed distance for ...
328. The Uranians [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Mudies have analyzed a sedimentary core raised off the Labrador coast. In an area that has always been believed to be part of the heavy ice cover of the pleistocene, "an ice-free ocean may have occurred as early as 22,000 years before the present." Hitherto, reports "imply that the Labrador Sea was locked in year-round polar ice." Furthermore, "the pollen spectrum indicates the continuous regional presence of terrestrial vegetation during this time." Sedge, shrub and tundra were growing densely nearby [7 ]. The C14 dating may, of course, be basically faulty. But then the whole theory of the ice ages needs to be reviewed. Or else ...
329. Ocean Basins [Books] [de Grazia books]
... during which time the Earth's field would be moving geographically and oscillating, the laminated magnetic structure of the floor must follow. Allen Cox points out that "if sea-floor spreading has occurred at a constant rate, the marine magnetic profiles may be interpreted to yield a reversal time scale going back 75 million years. The apparent average duration of the polarity intervals was greater during the time 10.6 <t <45 million years than during the past 10.6 million years, and during the time 45<t <75 million years the average length was still greater."[4 ] That is, periods between reversals of the Earth's magnetic field occupy ever broader stripes or ...
330. Morning Star* [Journals] [Aeon]
... the Codex Vindobonensis, a naked Quetzalcoatl is depicted "raised to the high heavens." Behind his back appear the so-called mountain of the sun and the double-peaked hill of sunset. (108) Readers of this periodical should by now be quite familiar with this "mountain," sometimes described as double-peaked, as the axis mundi, or polar column, associated with the primeval Saturnian sun. (109) In Mesoamerica, this cosmic hill was known as Colhuacan, and was said to have been the mountain of Tlaloc. (110) This is significant because, according to the Codex Magliabecchiano, Quetzalcoatl was assimilated with Tlaloc (111) who was likewise depicted with the face ...
