Weird, cool SCIENCE!! stuff

[Mendalla]

Damn, did I really go a month without posting on this thread?

Well, this story from Gizmodo is a good one. Usually, we find extinct species as bones or fossils in the ground. This one, however, was found in a tomb as part of the menagerie of a Chinese noblewoman. Among the various animal bones was a previously unknown, and extinct, species of gibbon.

Footnote: The noblewoman in question wasn't just any upper class Chinese lady. She was a grandmother of Qin Shi Huang, the First Emperor.

Dear old Albert wins again. While it is important to keep testing a theory against new data, General Relativity is so well-tested and has held up so well under that testing that, as the article suggests, any attempt to overturn or seriously modify it is going to require extraordinarily good evidence.

Still a great many people cannot relate emotional-intelligence as a balanced concern!

It is either one or the other as both sides are subjectively objectionable to the other in this domain of deep space ... thus the dark abstract nature ... often don't even know what I'm talking about ... as if it is objectionably complex ...

Tis a place to go though for those of us denied positions elsewhere ... refuge T' Dais ...

So apparently the dinosaurs couldn't do this:

T. Rex Couldn't Stick Out Its Tongue

Thus the stamping out of dinosaurs?

The mail service demands more ... like marching on through the weather and the environment for adequate delivery ...

Some don't deliver much ...

Poor dinosaur. However did he say bleah.

 

[Mendalla]

If it's a T Rex, I'm sure he said it however he wanted to. Who's gonna argue with a predator the size of a small bus?

 

[Luce NDs]

Ever run into a small buss ... depending on the situation there could be consuming consequence!

I get the image of a mouth taking on the phonetics of the Hebrew word for death ... maveth ... parallel to the purple vapours ...

Sometimes, the margins of texts are as important as the texts themselves:,

Images of cockatoo on 13th-century Vatican manuscript inspire trade route rethink

Short version: a sketch of a cockatoo, native to Australia, New Guinea, and region, in the margins of a 13th century manuscript indicate trade links between that region and the West much earlier than originally thought.

Librarians of purity don;t like marginal notes except when made by great people ... immagine a future where some POTUS is investigated for his marginal nature ... in the national convention that he has no partisan pragmatic curios ... just subjection!

Gives rise to borderline personality disturbances that may rise as brainstorms in the alternate ... tis corollary ... Carolinian offshoot? Songs of grief ... some sad ... some with justification about dissociation ... elimination and excretion as the story is pistis ... Sophia?

Can you imagine a maddened wisdom ... would it be wild ... and id'llwilde as shadows in the forest ...

One of my favourite things to do is to sit in a group of people with five or six different translations of the bible and yack about some of the often subtly different word choices between one translation and another.

Yes, I often think how cultural-centric our "history" is. As long as you recognize the natural bias that history is written by the victors, you can try and unskew the record a bit.

Such as virgin for maiden? or why Jesus transcended to heaven instead of going into orbit around the earth?

 

[Luce NDs]

Or how about Mauvis as a power that would be the death of amon ... amon being an ancient soul! Pluralized it got out of hand ...

You figure the Ascension turned Jesus into a satellite?

I think @Waterfall is thinking more along the lines of if you take the idea of him "ascending" literally, that's what you end up with given what we now know. If one takes it more metaphorically, meaning that he rose to a spiritually higher plane rather than simply a physically higher one, the problem goes away (my logical extension, not hers).

Is abstract dimension up or down ... and if black how could we tell ... a parallel with getting into the abstract soul ... another unknown! --- Ein's Tein it together relativity!

Why we are freed from eternal states for a flash of getting the up and down syndrome ... a' Moor? Tis unseen by many ... until it go eSt ... where fili O' Sophi lodged as a horse of a different shade ... the darker side of myth is adept! Thus some chose to Steele away ... ire o' neigh?

I take it literally but not that he rose up into outer space to become a satellite. Rather that he rose up to Heaven to sit at the right hand of God the Father.

Heaven being a state of mind and many oppose states of physic mediums ... too far off polity! Thus thought is out ... don't think when associated with angry de baiting sects ...
