Re: X Marks the Spot
Filamentary My Dear Watson
May 06, 2013

Phenomena throughout the visible universe exhibit features that are twisted and “stringy”. From plume to prominence it is plasma interactions that we see.

n previous Picture of the Day articles, there have been many discussions about formations cut in stone or puffed-out in clouds of ionized gas that are not easily explained by conventional theories. Two such figures are shown at the top of the page. One is said to be a volcano erupting on the surface of Jupiter’s active moon Io. The other is a massive flaring eruption from the Sun. How do both events relate to one another when they occur in such disparate environments?

Every world in the solar system is a charged body orbiting in a plasma. There are many ways in which plasma interacts with dust or atmospheric gasses no matter how hot or cold they are. Spacecraft sent to other planets, as well as satellites orbiting our own planet, have detected auroras, lightning, tornadoes and dust devils. Volcanoes on Earth have been found to “spit lightning” from their vents. Global dust storms on Mars are shown to be fed by thousands of sky-high funnels. Farther into the Solar System remote instruments are finding radio noise, electrified comets, spokes in Saturn’s rings and many other modes of electrical activity...............

Re: X Marks the Spot
that sounds quite healthy
think of this possibility if you will
let us say, for the point of this topic, in 1950`s onwards we went into space
in the following 60 + years discoveries were made in space that are considered irrevocably true
without thought of what these irrevocable truths may or may not mean, they are considered vital enough to be incorporated in all and anything we know
somehow

now

upon discovery of these truths , looking back through all our records of truths, they are missing. as in:
not recorded by any god, saint, or person of notable standing within our recorded history

thus what do we do

do we make it appear it was said by placing meanings to what was said in our past that we know was never imagined in our past
or
do we not

the reason we think on this topic is this

is it our intention to provide our previous history with something it never possessed
or
are we wishing to do something else

this point has meaning to our authorities and before choices are made it is thought important that the choices being made are recognized for what they are

i agree

i will add personal thought
limitation (our) was always the same limitation throughout our recorded history
and the boundary of our limitation was always the same boundary
it exists 250 miles above our heads
when we went through that boundary our historical limitation ceased to exist in the minds of a few
access to the information the other side of our boundary is still limited to access of the few
what the few do is one of the topics of this thread
luckily for us our limitation boundary is only a geographical location and nothing else but that
and
we now know that our next limitation boundary 8 billion miles approx further on from the first is no longer a mystery to us because the information we experienced crossing our first boundary explained all we required to know beyond the next boundary before we got there and crossed it for ourselves to confirm our discoveries are true
thus we have discovered all we needed to know in our past 60 years by our own physical/practical experience to confirm forever that we know know enough to understand forever in a manner unlike any previous imaginative thought recorded of the meaning of for ever that arose before 1850 approx
thus the thoughts closet to our discoveries that we on the surface of our planet possess that closest match what we have discovered that our planet
thus ourselves
are within to experience what we are to experience within
are our imaginative thoughts of our past 160 years

and there is no mystery how and why this is so /z\

EEG vibrations continuously shift from state to state over the whole range of frequencies during normal brain processing in adults. However, brain frequencies in developing children display a radically different behavior. EEG vibration rates and their corresponding states evolve in incremental stages over time.

The predominant brain activity during the child’s first two years of life is delta, the lowest EEG frequency range.

Between two and six years of age, the child’s brain activity ramps up and operates primarily in the range of theta. While in the theta state, children spend much of their time mixing the imaginary world with the real world.

The predominant delta and theta activity expressed by children younger than six signifies that their brains are operating at levels below consciousness. Delta and theta brain frequencies define a brain state known as a hypnagogic trance—the same neural state that hypnotherapists use to directly download new behaviors into the subconscious minds of their clients.

In other words, the first six years of a child’s life are spent in a hypnotic trance!

A child’s perceptions of the world are directly downloaded into the subconscious during this time, without discrimination and without filters of the analytical self-conscious mind which doesn’t fully exist. Consequently, our fundamental perceptions about life and our role in it are learned without our having the capacity to choose or reject those beliefs. We were simply programmed.

The Jesuits were aware of this programmable state and proudly boasted, “Give me the child until it is seven years old and I will give you the man.” They knew the child’s trance state facilitated a direct implanting of Church dogma into the subconscious mind. Once programmed, that information would inevitably influence 95 percent of that individual’s behavior for the rest of his or her life. [link to books.google.co.uk]

Re: X Marks the Spot
we add to this that our generations not only live within an era of limitation boundary breakthrough
we are also living within the era of solar systems environment alteration
our new to us information explains the affect this alteration has upon each and every person in our present and each generation to become
thus it is no coincidence that what we require to adjust to our altering environment we discovered when our need arose
how this manifests into practical reality
the translation of new information into global meaning
and
the meaning of our altering environment contained within the new translation of global meaning appears generally agreed in timescale by our lawful authorities prompted mostly by the velocity of noticeable environment alternation , it seems to me
but
whatever the motive this is the direction our now globalized authorities are thinking
that is as far as we have got

for our noticeable past and future indra has increased it`s noticeable presence hence noticeable solar system alteration including indra`s affect upon both our sun and boitatá
the result of this is our sun has less say in the big decisions here on earth , boitatá has more say
because boitatá is experiencing less influence from our sun and more influence from indra
thus boitatá , for our noticeable future, is the one whom tells

Re: X Marks the Spot
Earth-like planets and moons are similarly “born” by electrical expulsion of part of the positively charged cores of dwarf stars and gas giants. That explains the dichotomy between the dense rocky planets and moons and the gaseous giant planets. In the Electric Universe model, gravity itself is simply an electrostatic dipolar force. So planetary orbits are stabilized against gravitational chaos by exchange of electric charge through their plasma tails (Venus is still doing so strongly, judging by its “cometary” magnetotail, and it has the most circular orbit of any planet) and consequent modification of the gravity of each body. Planets will quickly assume orbits that ensure the least electrical interaction. Impacts between large bodies are avoided and capture rendered more probable by exchange of electric charge between them. Capture of our Moon becomes the only option, it cannot have been created from the Earth. Evidence of past planetary instabilities is written large on the surfaces of all solid bodies in the solar system. That evidence is in the form of electric arc cratering [link to www.holoscience.com]

It seems that when a dwarf star or gas giant planet “gives birth” to a rocky satellite, parent and child usually remain closely bound. Our solar system, with its widely spaced orbits and chaotic features, appears to be the result of a recent cosmic “traffic accident”. This seemingly wild conjecture is supported by the global stories of prehistoric planetary encounters. So to use our situation as a measure of a normal planetary system will give wildly misleading ideas of how life begins and estimates of the likelihood of life elsewhere in the universe. The most benign situation for life in an Electric Universe is inside the electrical cocoon of a brown dwarf star. Radiant energy is then evenly distributed over the entire surface of any planet orbiting within the chromosphere of such a star, regardless of axial rotation, tilt, or orbital eccentricity.

The exceedingly thin atmosphere of such stars has the essential water and carbon compounds to mist down onto planetary surfaces. The reddish light is ideal for photosynthesis. Such a model provides one reason why the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project is unlikely to succeed. Any advanced civilization on such a planet will be unaware that the universe exists outside its own stellar environment, and radio communication through the glow discharge of the star is impossible!

Re: X Marks the Spot
Hanging gardens of Babylon were not in Babylon

Instead, the Hanging Garden was actually created 300 miles further north in Ninevah, a feat of artistic prowess achieved by the Assyrian civilisation under King Sennacherib, writes Stephanie Daley, a Research Fellow at Somerville College, Oxford.

For centuries, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylonia, has been credited with the birth of a lavishly watered paradise in the fertile crescent of what is now central Iraq in the 6th century BC.

But there is one problem: no remains of the Hanging Garden have ever been found in Babylon. When a German team spent 19 years excavating the site during the last century, Ms Daley writes that they "expected to find inscriptions of Nebuchadnezzar confirming that he built the garden".

She adds: "To their dismay, they could not find any possible location with enough space in the vicinity of the palaces, nor did they dig out any written confirmation from the many texts they unearthed.".................

Ms Daley bases this on new translations of cuneiform inscriptions, many of which had been misinterpreted in the past. In particular, she came across a description attributed to Sennacherib, an Assyrian king, of his "unrivalled palace" with a "wonder of all peoples". There is also archaeological evidence of a sophisticated system of aqueducts, canals and dams in the area of Nineveh. [link to www.gods-kingdom-ministries.net]
 Quoting: observation



Nineveh was an ancient Assyrian city on the eastern bank of the Tigris River, and capital of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. It was the largest city in the world for some fifty years until it was sacked and completely depopulated by an unusual coalition of Medes, Persians, Babylonians, Scythians and Cimmerians in 612 BC................

.............Nineveh was one of the oldest and greatest cities in antiquity. The area was settled as early as 6000 BC and, by 3000 BC, had become an important religious center for worship of the Assyrian goddess Ishtar. The early city (and subsequent buildings) were constructed on a fault line and, consequently, suffered damage from a number of earthquakes. One such event destroyed the first temple of Ishtar which was then rebuilt in 2260 BC by the Akkadian king Manishtusu.

Texts from the Hellenistic period and later offered an eponymous Ninus as the founder of Nineveh, although there is no historical basis for this. The historic Nineveh is mentioned about 1800 BC as a centre of worship of Ishtar, whose cult was responsible for the city's early importance. The goddess's statue was sent to Pharaoh Amenhotep III of Egypt in the 14th century BC, by orders of the king of Mitanni

Why are the names of the chief characters in the biblical Book of Esther those of Mesopotamian deities? Stephanie Dalley argues that the narrative reflects real happenings in seventh-century Assyria, where the widespread belief that revenge belongs to the gods explains why Assyrian kings described punitive campaigns as divine acts, leading to the mythologizing of certain historical events. Ashurbanipal's sack of Susa, led by the deities Ishtar and Marduk, underlies the Hebrew story of Esther, and that story contains traces of the cultic calendar of Ishtar-of-Nineveh. Dalley traces the way in which the long-term settlement of `lost tribes' in Assyria, revealed by the fruits of excavation in Iraq and Syria, inspired a blend of pagan and Jewish traditions.

Re: X Marks the Spot
Invention of the water screw is traditionally credited to the third-century B.C. Greek scientist-engineer Archimedes, on the basis of numerous Greek and Latin texts and the technological context of Hellenistic Alexandria. An Assyrian text from the seventh century B.C. may be interpreted to show that king Sennacherib cast such a device in bronze at Nineveh, for use in his palace garden. Such an argument may be strengthened by comparison with details of Assyrian technical capabilities in large-scale casting and in making bearings, and with later Greek texts referring to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. The method for casting a bronze screw implied in the Assyrian text and instructions for building a wooden water screw provided by Vitruvius were reproduced for a television program. Arguments are presented for and against the invention of the device centuries before Archimedes, together with a discussion of the social context in which such inventions took place in antiquity.

They're back: 17-year cicadas to swarm from Georgia to New York

Colossal numbers of cicadas, unhurriedly growing underground since 1996, are about to emerge along much of the U.S. East Coast to begin passionately singing and mating as their remarkable life cycle restarts.

This year heralds the springtime emergence of billions of so-called 17-year periodical cicadas, with their distinctive black bodies, buggy red eyes, and orange-veined wings, along a roughly 900-mile stretch from northern Georgia to upstate New York.

The eerie, cacophonous mating music they produce, along with the unusual synchronous mass emergence and lengthy development cycles, have amazed scientists and lay people alike for centuries.

They're back: 17-year cicadas to swarm from Georgia to New York

Colossal numbers of cicadas, unhurriedly growing underground since 1996, are about to emerge along much of the U.S. East Coast to begin passionately singing and mating as their remarkable life cycle restarts.

This year heralds the springtime emergence of billions of so-called 17-year periodical cicadas, with their distinctive black bodies, buggy red eyes, and orange-veined wings, along a roughly 900-mile stretch from northern Georgia to upstate New York.

The eerie, cacophonous mating music they produce, along with the unusual synchronous mass emergence and lengthy development cycles, have amazed scientists and lay people alike for centuries.

The video indicated they were in TN in 2011. 15 years to go...

What are they doing underground for 17 years? Are they sleeping?
 Quoting: Seer777


Hibernating, yes, they would have to be as 17 year lifespan for an insect or whatever would be actually alive that long without some hibernation, I would imagine.

To me, the question is what is the 17 year cycle that they are tuned to?

Re: X Marks the Spot
Ms Daley bases this on new translations of cuneiform inscriptions, many of which had been misinterpreted in the past. In particular, she came across a description attributed to Sennacherib, an Assyrian king, of his "unrivalled palace" with a "wonder of all peoples". There is also archaeological evidence of a sophisticated system of aqueducts, canals and dams in the area of Nineveh.
 Quoting: observation



Nineveh was an ancient Assyrian city on the eastern bank of the Tigris River, and capital of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. It was the largest city in the world for some fifty years until it was sacked and completely depopulated by an unusual coalition of Medes, Persians, Babylonians, Scythians and Cimmerians in 612 BC................

.............Nineveh was one of the oldest and greatest cities in antiquity. The area was settled as early as 6000 BC and, by 3000 BC, had become an important religious center for worship of the Assyrian goddess Ishtar. The early city (and subsequent buildings) were constructed on a fault line and, consequently, suffered damage from a number of earthquakes. One such event destroyed the first temple of Ishtar which was then rebuilt in 2260 BC by the Akkadian king Manishtusu.

Texts from the Hellenistic period and later offered an eponymous Ninus as the founder of Nineveh, although there is no historical basis for this. The historic Nineveh is mentioned about 1800 BC as a centre of worship of Ishtar, whose cult was responsible for the city's early importance. The goddess's statue was sent to Pharaoh Amenhotep III of Egypt in the 14th century BC, by orders of the king of Mitanni

oh

look he has returned today to tell us she was never babylonian

Ishtar

she says everything said by the babylonians etc and ever since

is nonsense

Good morning everyone...

I'm not sure I had ever noticed her feet. They look like chicken feet.

hmm
 Quoting: Seer777


good morning


she seems quite able to use our new language thus talon feet signs owls
wise, silent and able to take care of themselves
combine that to her wings and she is wise in the air. as in
her wiseness fly's through the air silently which she confirms to distant feeling
telepathy
she says there is no mystery to this
men, not structured to experience the "rigor" of pregnancy and child birth, experience/express emotions differently to women
thus
when our golden age began to decline the men were the first to noticeably express the signs
their emotional senses declined at a far quicker rate then women's did
eventually there were no men whom utilized their senses as all once did, only women could to varying degrees
thus men are the first to become senseless in declining environment of sense altering change and are the last to become sensible when the environment becomes sensitive to our senses once again

she seems pretty content with that translation tounge

Re: X Marks the Spot
Earth-like planets and moons are similarly “born” by electrical expulsion of part of the positively charged cores of dwarf stars and gas giants. That explains the dichotomy between the dense rocky planets and moons and the gaseous giant planets. In the Electric Universe model, gravity itself is simply an electrostatic dipolar force. So planetary orbits are stabilized against gravitational chaos by exchange of electric charge through their plasma tails (Venus is still doing so strongly, judging by its “cometary” magnetotail, and it has the most circular orbit of any planet) and consequent modification of the gravity of each body. Planets will quickly assume orbits that ensure the least electrical interaction. Impacts between large bodies are avoided and capture rendered more probable by exchange of electric charge between them. Capture of our Moon becomes the only option, it cannot have been created from the Earth. Evidence of past planetary instabilities is written large on the surfaces of all solid bodies in the solar system. That evidence is in the form of electric arc cratering

Morning.

No worries. Just a little synch going on. I was having a 'debate' with my friend's son last night that was pretty fun. lol, he called Electric Universe model 'psuedo-science', which at that point I started blasting him with all the research. He went with things like, "Just because one person says it's true doesn't make it so." Shit like that.

Kid is really intelligent though, and it was really fun. But, we started discussing gravity in comparison to magnetism, etc. Unfortunately, he didn't have much knowledge on EM, as he thinks of it as 'pseudo', as the entire universe is based on gravity.
