Scientists Say they've Discovered Gravity Waves

Detecting gravity waves is a big deal for physicists. Gravity travels at the speed of light and apparently warps space-time. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity had equations that described the way gravity acts to warp space and time that should be regarded as one spacetime thing instead of two different things.

L.I.G.O. is a large gravity-wave searching tool that cost a billion dollars to build. If it could get better at making observations and measurements of gravity waves, or perhaps a future large interferometer observatory could, it might be able to determine if gravity occurs in extra-dimensions beyond the standard four dimensions of normal spacetime of this Universe.

If gravity waves can have their energy accurately observed and quantified it might be possible to determine if all of their energy is accounted for in this Universe or if some of it is going elsewhere. making such accurate observations make take a very long time.

D.I.A., Black Caucus and Hillary; Matters of National Security

A former Chief of the D.I.A. during the Obama administration thinks Hillary should quit her Presidential campaign and let the F.B.I. investigate her using a private email server to send classified material. General Flynn said she should 'stand down'.

Meanwhile the Congressional black caucus endorsed Hillary's run knowing who has kick-backed best buttering their bread in the past. Hillary is the most outspokenly immoral of the candidates with a proven record of denying responsibility for anything from the deaths of Ambassador Stevens to the whereabouts of the missing diary, emails etc. She has supported abortion and homosexual marriage since the invention of sin and blacks overwhelmingly voted for the President that made sin official national policy.

Yet the black caucus may have selected Hillary for the same reason blacks of Kingsland Georgia in 1775 overwhelmingly chose the British side in the revolutionary war; because they hated socialism represented by Bernie Sanders and preferred British imperialism via globalism and the erosion of law and national security in the future United States. They might have supported a Footsie takeover of Wall Street if communications of the time had allowed.. So anything that leaks of national security, increases the Federal budget to 4 or 5 trillion and brings more immoral renormalization must be good and right etc. That is the Hillary factor. Actually though I used some poetic license in that historical configuration for educational purposes.

Blacks of Kingsland supported the Brits because the local rich people were slave and plantation owners and they thought they would get better liberation terms with the Brits. They make that same sort of mistake in the misguided belief that the Clintons are interested in anything more than being rich themselves and will use the public sector in any way possible to accomplish that. Even the Clinton Foundation or Chelsea Clinton have attended and hosted fund raisers with Russian billionaires.

Assuredly it would be cheaper to get along with Russia than make an enemy of them-they were willing at the end of the cold war, yet simplistic retards in government can't do that and need to be foes instead. Only Ronald Reagan could build peace and prosperity with the Russian-certainly not the new age trickster Clinton family.

Would a Vast Flood Drowning Florida Be a Local Flood?

If global warming enabling politicians let the ice of Greenland and Antarctica melt down and raise sea level enough to drown most of Florida, would that be considered a local flood? Some right-wing Biblical literalists, though they read the Bible differently from one another interpreting the text differently, disdain a Mesopotamia-only Biblical flood as a local flood rather than a global flood.

Genesis relates that the Ark came to rest on a high point called Urartu as the high water mark of the flood (Ararat after Jewish transliteration circa 6^th century B.C.). That means it was just a regional flood that went as far as the ancient kingdom of Urartu located in ancient times half-way up Iraq toward the Iranian slope.

Readers of Genesis in the old days began naming highest points 'Ararat' and thus Mt. Ararat in Turkey was given its name long after the flood. If there had been many Jews living in Tibet they would have named Mt. Chomolungma not Mt. Everest, it too would have been named Mt. Ararat.

Noah notably did not venture to Australia to gather kangaroo nor Antarctica to collect penguin. Collecting samples of local animals that might have their habitat lost ain Mesopotamia and saving them until it was safe to reintroduce them is one environmental technique that could be used today too in some cases, such as that of white rhino or mountain guerrilla, however it also would have been logical in the case of collecting samples of all domesticated animals and fowl that resulted from generations of breeding from that soon lost first human civilization.

Biblical Flood Theory Reconsidered

I believe Abraham and others of his day were mostly clueless about a round world. Aristarchus developed it much later. Yet the whole world flooding idea would have made sense if it referred to the first civilization of Mesopotamia when everything was destroyed. People probably evolved the round Earth flooding interpretation later. It’s like the Urartu-Ararat confusion with Mt. Ararat named for the Jewish transliteration of Urartu.

It might have been a very large flood that hasn't since recurred. I grew up where the largest known flood occurred in the U.S.A. where Lake Bonneville flooded Eastern Washington 15-20,000- years ago, yet probably few lives were lost compared to much smaller floods. I think evidence of Wisconsin ice age ending floods in Mesopotamia are difficult to find since the sea level has risen more than 200 feet since then and the entire upper Persian Gulf region that formerly was dry is underwater.  The ancient kingdom of Urartu evidently was where the tidal surge reached high water mark and the Ark settled. Probably no sudden rise like that has occurred since, although I think the salient promise was that humanity would not nearly be wiped out except for a few again. One can interpret what group would not be wiped out in various ways too-it might mean the chosen people or the elect would not be wiped out etc. The era is not too distant from that of the protoevangelium-it is challenging to be precise about what everything is contextually.

Regarding 'probably'. In that particular instance I was referring to the Lake Bonneville flood. I believe there is an archaeological site in Eastern Washington that is one of the oldest in North America with Indian bones dating maybe 15,000 years. I suppose they moved there after the Bonneville flood (not the Biblical flood). North America was sparsely populated then and that is why I said probably few lives were comparatively lost in contrast to a flood in a densely populated region such as occurs even in the modern world as in Bangladesh in the past. Late Pre-Columbian America in the area that is today the U.S.A. had a population of fewer than 4 million souls.

As the remnants of Middle-Eastern Eden faded away, that may have been during the end of the Wisconsin ice age when Arabia became a desert and the Mid-east dessicated saving species that would have perished in a vast flood with deserts could be like saving species on one land mass surrounded by water. After the flood one could set them down again where the habitat was before flooding. I don't care much for physical geologist's paradigms that place a unified land mass 300 to 175 million years ago. It is named Pangaea, and I don't know about any of the plate tectonic mountain formations of that hypothetical continent. It probably wasn't flat and easy to flood. Besides, the creatures of that era would need to be of that era-not like today's, and would need to evolve to be like today's. Another theory is that the whole world was covered by water shortly after the formation of the Earth under gravity several billion years ago when space ice was gathered in too, melted and rose to the surface. yet no life is likely to have existed then besides maybe the kind they look for on Mars that is very tiny and doesn't fit the Bible descriptions. Those seem to fit a recent, comparatively, flood. While the world may have been entirely covered with water at some time in its history, I don't like to associate those with the Biblical flood.

Consciousness Can't Trigger Actions?

I believe the article had some solid work,  (https://www.chess.com/article/view/why-chess-players-blunder ) yet it's also replete with blunders regarding the nature of consciousness. Consider how few bits of data are said to go into consciousness; "it has been known that from all the information flooding through our sense organs (1,121,000 bits), only a fraction (1-16 bits) makes up a conscious experience". In assembler language with binary data 1-16 bits is what-like 4 words? That is a trivial amount of data. A chessboard alone has far more information than that.

Amateurs make some blunders for the obvious lack of seeing the whole board rather than a small area where the action seems to be happening. General Gordon nearly flanked Grant's Army of the Potomac battle with Lee in the 2nd Wilderness campaign because the Union was focused on the front line where the action was.

There are many theories of consciousness, yet it is wrong to regard it as entirely separate from the subconscious. Without the subconscious and a healthy brain the conscious obviously wouldn't exist. It is better to compare consciousness to a computer where some things are being used and appear on the video display while other data is just in memory. If one cannot remember something sometime, such as a name, with some practice it is possible to let the subconscious mull it over and the answer will pop up into thought eventually

There are scientific atheists that want to degrade consciousness down to being an appendage of nature that is phenomenal and worthy of dismissal regarding macro-political decisions. That followed from B.F. Skinner's behaviorist work. I disagree with numerous parameters of the paradigm, although there are some innate behavioral characteristics of being human such as the appearance of thirst. It would be convenient if elites could disregard the conscious will of the citizens as meaningless in order to screw them in harmony with the will of concentrated wealth and power. Even mega-corporations have an element of a commune about them in their collective subconscious.

“Since consciousness cannot trigger actions, we cannot inadvertently, unintentionally, un-purposefully or un-deliberately commit actions or play moves we “didn’t mean to.””-Vik-Hansen https://www.chess.com/article/view/why-chess-players-blunder

That seems like the most pure bunk imaginable. One virtually cannot move without conscious thought and will to act. Spend some time in a wilderness where your own body is the sole transport, and test the theory.

Obama Admin Should Not Fund Crimes Against Humanity

The Obama administration has been a loud vocal enabler of the Syrian Civil Conflict from its inception with money, material and propaganda accelerants inevitably blaming the Syrian Government for existing. Now the U.N. has declared that all sides in the conflict are perpetrating crimes against humanity-why is that not surprising?

The administration should just stop support for the war and let the fire burn itself out. It will be difficult as it is to let the area develop a new stability. yet it would without external powers coordinating the attack on the Syrian interior lines.

http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=53181

The United States has no vital interests in Syria though Europe does insofar as it receives hundreds of thousands of terrorists and victims of war seeking to insinuate themselves as refugees to plan future terror attacks or simply flee from state and internationally driven terror in Syria. Anyone with common sense would stop funding the conflict, unless war is sort of amusing to them perhaps in that it might advance select special interests
