532. The Tutankhamun Deception (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... This was Pa-nehesi (the Egyptian equivalent of Phinhas)... during the time of Moses, his priest Phinhas killed a man who supposedly defiled the temple by hanging him on a tree... Tutankhamun himself was killed .. . and his injury is consistent with hanging' (O'Farrell). 8. Ibid. 9. Strangely, although Velikovsky's Oedipus and Akhenaten [sic] of 1960 is listed in the bibliography, the only reference in the text is to Brackman, The Search for the Gold of Tutankhamun, Robert Hale Ltd, 1978. 10. Messiah' is a word taken from the Egyptian for crocodile - messer - because kings were annointed with the ...
533. Testing Juergens' 'electric sun' theory [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in praise of kings and heroic deeds - and poems and songs praising gods which have survived into modern hymnology. Iron Age European culture is separated by thousands of years and miles from southern Africa, yet several practices display evidence of a common human experience, including dance and song, weaponry (e .g . the spear) and, strangely, a common fear of a collapsing sky [1 ]. In Celtic terms this has survived in fable and asterix cartoon and the Lenny Henny nursery rhyme, where the character is frightened the sky is going to fall on him. In the 19th century Zulu warrior society the same idea was preserved in war chants [2 ]. ...
534. Tree Symbols [Books]
... which plants are made poisonous, as well as malign influences, crime and madness. Their saliva, the foam which fell from their mouths during the attack of rage, their sweat, their blood itself, were all 110 less to be feared. When any drop of it touched the earth, straightway, it germinated, and produced something strange and baneful, a serpent, a scorpion, a plant of deadly nightshade or of henbane. But, on the other hand, the sun was all goodness, and persons or things which it cast forth into life infallibly partook of its benignity. But Re's saliva gave origin to the serpent which stung him. In the Sait Magical ...
535. Making Sense of Astronomy and Geology by Dirk Bontes (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... their moons, may reflect a tendency towards minimising electromagnetic interactions with the Sun's interplanetary magnetic field and with each other. A considerable number of ad hoc modifications to the theory have to be invoked to explain some of the many bizarre stellar and galactic objects but this indicates - in my view - not weaknesses in the theory so much as how strange and complex our universe is. 3. Redshifts In chapter 4 - A new redshift model' - Bontes says: The photons that are the vectors of light, though massless, do have momentum (mv) .. and the photon continually moves perpendicularly to the direction of its propagation, a property called amplitude .. . Accordingly ...
536. Deluge Warnings (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... of the coming disaster by various beasts. Animals, indeed, seem to have a sense of anticipation for meteorological or seismic events. Thus, for instance, a Peruvian myth tells how a man took his llama to a fine pasture but the animal showed no appetite and only moaned. The man asked in surprise for the reason of this strange behaviour and the beast told him that it was sad because in five days the sea would rise and engulf the Earth. Alarmed, the man asked if there was no possibility of escaping, and the llama advised him to repair to the top of the high mountain Villacoto. The man and his family victualled themselves and set out at ...
537. The Legends of the Jews: Volume II - Preface [Books]
... of this material, in order not to make the second volume too bulky. The division chosen is a natural one. This volume closes with the Exodus, and contains the deeds of Moses in Egypt, while the following volume will deal with Moses in the desert. The fact that Job is placed between Jacob's sons and Moses may appear strange to some readers, since in the Bible Job is one of the last books; but "legend is above time and space," and I have, therefore, given Job the place which legend has ascribed to him.

538. Comments on Chappell [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... days, and perhaps to as low as 610 days.) Which planet must increase its period to accommodate this is anyone's guess. Both Venus and Earth are reasonable candidates, in that they could increase their orbits 1 ½ days each, with "room to spare" and Mars would still be "the deviant inner planet". The strange attractor value for planet location around the sun seems to be a = 10,000,000 x pi x phi^(2n/3 ) where: a = semi-major axis in nautical miles of 6082.12 feet, pi = 3.141593..., phi = 1.618033989..., n = ...
539. Back to the Drawing Board? [Journals] [Kronos]
... a device sent along to analyze the spectral properties of the Venusian atmosphere and hence quantify and locate noncorrosive gases, was turning up unexpected results. . . . found indications in his data that the lower atmosphere of Venus may be rich in methane. Could methane, either burning or reacting with other organic compounds, be the source of that strange glow? Of course, said Donahue. But we're being very skeptical about the methane reading, ' he added. It could be an artifact or it could be an important finding. It will take quite a while to verify. ' " This question received no discussion whatsoever in the issue of Science devoted to Pioneer Venus' findings ...
540. The Rise and Fall of Man (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... and sudden cataclysm overtakes this busy hive of London, the swarming canyons of New York- even the villages and hamlets of England, the backwood settlements of America- and an unimaginably great and powerful tidal wave sweeps me and a few of my neighbours, a sorry crew with nothing to call our own except the shirts on our backs, to some strange place scoured clean by the raging waters where would be our learning, our technical skill, our standard of culture? Though I may still remember a number of mathematical formulae, historical data, and general facts- of what value are they to me? Though I can make things out of wood and metal, unless I have the materials ...
