We depend on time to be consistent, but it’s not always so dependable
In the movie Star Trek: Generations, Captains Kirk and Picard join
forces to fight Dr. Soran, a madman who viewed time as his enemy.
Picard, however, came to see time as a companion that accompanies us on
our journeys through life. Throughout the many experiences of our lives, we regard time in both
ways: as a kind of enemy when we’re late for something or eager for
something to happen; but on an everyday basis as something we can rely
on. One thing follows another, cause and effect, twenty-four hours in a
day.
Every once in awhile, however, time seems to go haywire, gets fouled up
in a glitch, moves impossibly fast orimpossibly slow.
Is it time
itself that gets screwed up? Or is it just our perception of it?
Consider these reports from people who suspect that the flow of time
(or the flow of their lives through it) went mysteriously wrong.
Time Moved too Slowly
Don and his wife had their encounter with missing time in the Nevada
desert in 1997. They were driving their small, three-cylinder Geo Metro
to Laughlin, Nevada from San Diego, California. “We took the back way
to Laughlin on 8 East through the desert to 95 North,” says Don.
“Around dusk, our windshield had a rather large collection of bugs, so
we pulled into the only gas station at Vidal Junction to clean the
glass.”
As they pulled into the mini mart station, Don noticed a seedy looking
character at the pumps staring at him and his wife. He had greasy hair,
a disco shirt and aleather vest, and was driving a beat up, early ’70s
Toronado. Don quickly cleaned his windows and got back in his car. The
greasy dude was still staring at them.
Darkness was quickly approaching as Don pulled back onto 95N, hoping
the creepy stranger would not follow them. But he did. “Immediately, I
had a bad feeling,” says Don, “knowing that in the lonely desert there
are bandits who prey on tourists, nudging their car, then robbing them
after they pull over for a fender bender.”
Don knew his Geo Metro was no match for the stranger’s aging muscle
car, but tried to outrun him anyway. Even managing to reach 80 mph, the
stranger stayed on his tail. Don and his wife began to get frightened.
“I told my wife to get the gun out of our backpack we travel with for
protection.”
But then something weird happened. “A split second later, with noturn
offs......

Andy Monkman: The "Flower of Life" can be found in all major religions of the world. It contains the patterns of creation as they emerged from the "Great Void". Everything is made from the Creator"s thought. After the creation of the Seed of Life the same vortex"s motion was continued, creating the next structure known as the Egg of Life. This structure forms the basis for music, as the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between the tones and the half tones in music. I...What is Alchemy ?
Anthony North: Of all the esoteric arts, none are more controversial than alchemy. Indeed, the standard image we have of the Magician – pointy hat, wise look on his ancient face, and surrounded by books and glass vials – is really that of the Alchemist. Existing in a world of mystery, the Alchemist seemed to be a dark, occult shadow over much of Europe from Medieval times to the birth of the modern world. And his claims were quite often fantastic.Famous alchemists: Europe produced many alchemist...Archimedes Death Ray device put to the test
Massachuessets Institute of Technology: Ancient Greek and Roman historians recorded that during the siege of Syracuse in 212 BC, Archimedes (a notably smart person) constructed a burning glass to set the Roman warships, anchored within bow and arrow range, afire. The story has been much debated and oft dismissed as myth. TV's MythBusters were not able to replicate the feat and “busted” the myth.Intrigued by the idea and anintuitive belief that it could work, MIT's 2.009ers decided to ap...Cracking the alchemists' secret recipe
A 500-year old mystery surrounding the centerpiece of the alchemists' lab kit has been solved by UCL (University College London) and Cardiff University archaeologists. Since the Middle Ages, mixing vessels – or crucibles – manufactured in the Hesse region of Germany have been world renowned because of their ability to withstand strong reagents and high temperatures. Previous work by the team has shown that Hessian crucibles have been found in archaeological sites across the world, including ...The eternal now
Anthony North: Foretelling the future is one of the trickiest areas of the paranormal. Within known theorizing, there is very little of a concrete nature that can suggest it is possible. Hence, much skepticism is placed on the subject. For my own research, I"ve looked at the idea that possible future outcomes can be gleaned by unconscious knowledge and intuitions in the present. However, I won"t bore the reader by going over these "mechanisms" again. I want to look further than that.: For whilst...Feng shui creates better websites
Could someone or
something switch us off? Could it possibly be true that our world is just a
computer program, or a hologram, or a dream? Although it's about the weirdest
thing you could think of, there are some tantalizing clues this might indeed be
the case. The stuff we call 'reality' simply isn?t very real after all.
Welcome to the outskirts of reality. Welcome to the place where theoretical
physics and philosophy meet, and where religion and science loose their meaning.

:This report presupposes two things: that there
are ?aliens,? and that some people (occultists) have ?magickal powers.? It is
not the point of this report to prove there are or are not such beings or

To most of us, the word "alchemy" calls up the
picture of a medieval and slightly sinister laboratory in which an aged,
black-robed wizard broods over the crucibles and alembics that are to bring
within his reach the Philosopher's Stone, and with that discovery, the formula
for the Elixir of life and the transmutation of metals. But one can scarcely
dismiss so lightly the science -- or art, if you will --that won to its service
the lifelong devotion of men of culture and ...
