http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0401136 The theory of Self Creation Cosmology is described and found to be as concordant as the standard cosmological 'concordance model' with local experiments and cosmological observations. However it does not require the speculative hypotheses of inflation...

It is the reciprocation between the self and the unself. The self is the individual sense of being a complete individual even in the absence of everything else perceived. The unself is the reservoir of beingness from which the self origionates- it is like the sunlight from which plants grow-...

I decided to expand my knowledge on Physics a little from what I was taught at school, which was mostly classical/Newtonian stuff. I am planning on learning both Quantum Mechanics & Relativity. Which one should I learn first, so that the knowledge from that first subject would help me learn the...

Shortest Proof That SR Self Contradicts In The World Suppose SR is correct, it would then follow that the Lorentz contraction formula is correct. That formula is: L = L0 (1-v^2/c^2)1/2 Suppose that formula is true. As you can see, if v=c, then L = (L0) times zero, hence L=0. Now, by...

I was thinking on how man came to be...all the complex evolutionary (manipulated by intelligence) information coding in the DNA / RNA , and the rapid (nearly geometrically doubling ) advancement of computer power. And how in the near future we may build a computer that exceeds the human brain in...

A recent episode of NOVA, The Magnetic Storm, it had been said that, "According to generally accepted theory -- the dynamo theory -- interactions between the churning, twisting flow of molten material in the outer core and the magnetic field generate electrical current that, in turn, creates...

[SOLVED] self diffusion of water Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand- or point in the right direction about a question I have concerning the self diffusion coefficients of HDO vs H2O18. To calculate the effective diffusion coefficients of isotopes of water in groundwater most...

I'm curious what others veiws are on this. Do those who are minorities, many of which are ancient races with a long history in the middle east region (Copts, Assyrians, kurds etc.), do these people have a right to self determination? Do you think minorities that have been oppressed, slaughtered...
