![]() | The "Dark Cloud" of the Big Bang Ten Scientific Papers Censored - http://www.orionfdn.org/papers/index.htm Dr. Robert V. Gentry is interviewed by Don Mackintosh , MDIV, Three Angels Ministry Media. By Robert V. Gentry http://www.halos.com Earth Science Associates P.O.Box 12067 Knoxville, TN 37912-0067 THE ORIGIN OF THE UNIVERSE Steven Weinburg, The First Three Minutes "In following this account of the first three minutes, the reader may feel that he can delete a note of scientific overconfidence. He might be right. However, I do not believe that scientific progress is always best advanced by keeping an altogether open mind. It is often necessary to forget one's doubts and to follow the consequences of one's assumptions wherever they may lead..." "Never the less, there is one great uncertainty that hangs like a dark cloud over the standard model [the Bibg Bang]. Underlying all the calculations described in this chapter is the Cosmological Principle, the assumption that the universe is homogeneous and isotropic. The great thing is not to be free of theoretical prejudices, but to have the right theoretical prejudices. And always, the test of any theortical preconception is where it leads.." BIG BANG VIOLATES CONSERVATION OF ENERGY Edward R. Harrison, Cosmology, pp. 276 "Science clings tenaciously to concepts of conservation, the most fundamental of which is the conservation of energy... The conservation of energy principle serves us well in all sciences except cosmology...To the question where the energy goes in an expanding universe and where it comes from in a collapsing universe the answer is -- nowhere, because in this one case, energy is not conserved.". ABSOLUTE REFERENCE FRAME It is a remarkable that we now are justified in talking about an absolute motion, and that we can measure it. The great dream of Michelson and Mortey is realized. Thet wanted to measure the absolute motion of the earth by measuring the velocity of light in different directions. According to Einstein, however , this velocity is always the same. But the 3 K radiation represents a fixed system of coordinates. It makes sence to say that an observer is at rest in an absolute sence when the 3 K radiation apperrs to have the same frequencies in all dieections... ABSOLUTE REFERENCE FRAME Nature has provided an absolute frame of reference. The deeper significance of this concept is not clear. Weisskopf, VF 1983.

![]() | The Annual Harrison Hot Springs Sand Castle Sculptures (HQ) (Stereo) To watch in HQ: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSwtysILWoA&fmt=18 Since 1989, a World Championship in Sand Sculpture has been held in Harrison Hot Springs (Canada, BC), also known as "Harrisand." The competition has solo, double and team categories. The world's tallest sandcastle was built on Myrtle Beach in South Carolina as part of the 2007 Sun Fun Festival. The structure was 49.55 feet (15.1 metres) high. It took 10 days to construct, and used 300 truckloads of sand. On September 1, 2007, Ed Jarrett completed his world-record 31.7-foot (9.66 m) high sand castle, at the Point Sebago Resort in Casco, Maine. The "Castle to the Sun" was constructed to raise funds to benefit sick children at Camp Sunshine on Sebago Lake. He created a 29-foot 3 inch (8.9 m) sand castle in Falmouth, Maine in 2003 declared the world's tallest. Sand grains will not stick together unless the sand is reasonably fine. While dry sand is loose, wet sand is adherent if the proper amounts of sand and water are used in the mixture. According to the BBC TV program Coast, the ideal ratio is eight parts dry sand to one part water. When the sand dries out or gets wet, the shape of a structure may change; "landslides" are common. Furthermore, the mixture of fine (mostly sharper) and coarse sand granules is very important to achieve good "sand construction" results. Fine granules can be rounded by the natural influences of seas, rivers or fluvials, in turn negatively influencing the bonding between the individual granules. Research is thus necessary to find the most suitable sand to achieve an optimal, landslide-free construction. Shovels are the main construction tool, although some people use only their hands. Water from the sea can be brought to the building site with a bucket or other container. Sometimes other materials, such as pieces of wood, are added to reinforce structures. Sand sculpting as an art form has become very popular in recent years. Hundreds of annual competitions are held all over the world. Techniques can be quite sophisticated, and record-breaking achievements have been noted in the Guinness World Records. Sometimes contests are staged as advertising or promotional events. Some sandcastle artists are purists, using no artificial materials, formwork, coloring, adhesive or heavy machinery. One such purist is G. Augustine Lynas, who has been building public sand sculptures for over 50 years. However, in sand sculpting competitions, the rules often require that the finished sculpture be sprayed with a stabilizing coating that preserves it and allows the work to be properly judged and enjoyed by spectators. Coated sculptures can last for months. |
![]() | Shirley Bassey SOMETHING Live performance from Sydney Australia 1978 Part 7. Something Written by George Harrison. Something recorded: April, 1970 released: UK: May '70 on UA single UP 35125 US: Jun 26 '70 on UA single UA 50698 charted: UK Single: #4, Jun 20, 1970 US Easy Listening: #6, Sep 12, 1970 US Pop: #55, Sep 19, 1970 Released 1970 on a single and the album Something. Shirley Bassey's version was a hit though that song had been a hit for The Beatles just a few months before. Shirley's recording matched the No. 4 chart placing that The Beatles had achieved in the UK. And Shirley Bassey had a 22-week chart run in the Top 50 singles charts, her longest chart duration ever for a single, compared with only 12 weeks for the original Beatles version. Something is still one of her standards sung on almost every concert and contained on almost every collection. On the US Billboard The Beatles 1969 reached No. 3, but Shirley's version did not reach that position, but it was a hit around the world - and is still a hit. George Harrison was a lead guitarist of The Beatles. Paul McCartney had been his slightly older school friend. "Something" became the first Harrison song on the A-side of a Beatles single. It was on the The Beatles album "Abbey Road" (Released September 26 1969), the last Beatles album to be recorded (although it was not the last to be released). The song was also sung by Lena Horne, included on her 1969 LP titled "Watch What Happens", and by Carmen McRae, included on her 1970 LP titled "Just A Little Lovin'", and by Jack Jones, included on his 1970 LP entitled "Live At The Sands", and by many more artists. Shirley Bassey wrote about Something: When I first sang it everybody said, "Oh, no, no, no." Then, when I wanted to record it, they said, "No, no, no, it's a Beatles song , it's a group song." And the more they told me not to do it the more I wanted to. And when I did do it I proved them wrong, because it was number four in England for me. And she said: I just went into the studio one evening with these songs, including Something which I had first heard sung by Peggy Lee on the Ed Sullivan show in the States. I didn't even know that The Beatles had done it! I just caught the end of Peggy's performance and I was so knocked out that I started ringing people up, asked if they knew the name of the song that she had sung. About two weeks later I found that it had been written by George Harrison. Shirley Bassey performs this song on most live concerts, so it is available on the live albums too, and on the videos. Lyrics Something in the way he moves Attracts me like no other lover Something in the way he moves me I don't want to leave him now You know I believe in how Somewhere in his smile he knows That I don't need no other lover Something in his style that shows me Don't want to leave him now You know I believe in how You're asking me will our love grow I don't know, I don't know You stick around now it may show I don't know, I don't know Something in the way he moves And all I have to do is think of him Something in the things he shows me I don't want to leave him now You know I believe in how You're asking me will our love grow I don't know, I don't know You stick around now it may show I don't know, I don't know Something in the way he moves Something in the way he knows Something in the way he smiles Something in the way he moves Something in the way he smiles Something (Transcribed by Roman) |
