  6. The Cool Picture Thread

    I been reading recently about an Aboriginal that lived in such an environment, traditional way, but alone, as recently as the 1970s ; He 'came in from the outback' as a youth and worked on cattle stations, but was beaten for some for some minor infraction. He wasn't having that so he took off, left the station, the area and his people and travelled to a remote part of their land that had become abandoned and lived there by himself. His people often saw traces of him, when they went to that area. Eventually, when their conditions got a little better, (in the 70s ) they went out to look for him. They identified his tracks and traces, he had been also hunting and eating camels , as they found their remains. But they didnt find him, the knew, with his skill, he would know they were there and who they where, but he chose not to reveal himself, so they left him be . A hard enough terrain to survive in in a group .... but a lone person, surviving for years and years out there, with no contact or network .... just your naked self, an animal skin and some sticks and stones for tools !

    Its probably one of our earliest weapons ; Then they discovered if its weighted on one end, that can be an advantage The there was the innovation of making it so it comes back to you ; The 'Indian boomerang' , the valari started to develop a blade shape on the end ; Until, eventually ; Yikes !

    Actually ... that ^ was expected . And not only that ... the Spanish Inquisition itself was expected ...... they would send you a notice before they turned up ! Everyone expected the Spanish Inquisition because they told people they were coming. They gave written and verbal notice to their accused. They gave time to pack up all the valuables and sort our affairs. The accused if they lost their case (surprise surprise they invariably did) would see their property confiscated. Secret police then as now do not like to housework. And so the Spanish Inquisition or their minions let the damned know they had time to make everything ready for confiscation. Feeding prisoners has always been an expense, and so friends and family had to have time to ensure they could bring food to the prisoners and pay bribes to the wardens. Gelileo Galilei could have been reasonably expected to be expecting the Inquisition : How "unexpected" were investigations conducted by the Inquisition? We have a very famous example: 1611, Roberto Bellarmino, a Cardinal and important scholar in Rome, began preliminary investigations with regards to Galileo Galilei's theories on a heliocentric solar system, which if proven true begin to discredit the worldview as envisioned in biblical scripture. An inquiry as to his "heretical" past was also conducted by the local inquisitor in Padua, where Galileo had been studying the solar system. We don't know if Galileo was made aware of these initial investigations. However, the controversial nature of Galileo's work was well-known; by 1614 an ambitious Dominical preacher named Tommaso Caccini denounced several prominent scientists during a sermon in Florence's Santa Maria Novella church, and Galileo was one of those names. So it cannot have been a surprise for Galileo when the next year, Caccini deposited his accusations of Galileo's heresy (specifically, that he held that the earth revolved around the sun, tied to an accusation that his theory was born out of Galileo's lack of faith). In addition, the state apparatus of the Duchy of Tuscany, under whose patronage Galileo had been given a research grant at the University of Pisa without having any classes scheduled (a dream scenario for many academics) was well aware of the Inquisition having opened up a dossier on Galileo; the Tuscan ambassador to Rome knew all about the proceedings, and it is safe to say Galileo, who was frequently demonstrating experiments at the Tuscan Court in the Pitti palace, was similarly well-informed. So we can safely say Galileo was expecting the Inquisition. In fact, you could argue that Galileo was provoking the inquisition, personally arguing his case in Rome and staying three months to appeal the decision. He was, effectively, attempting to change the minds of the inquisitors, exasperating the Tuscan ambassador ("His humor is set on reasoning with the friars and fighting with them with which he can't but lose ... Staying away from this country would be of great benefit and service to him" wrote back the Ambassador). But Galileo didn't stop; and would provoke the church as well as scholars at the Roman College until he was summoned by the inquisition a second time, in 1633. Again, it can't have been too much of a surprise, he had spent years picking fights with Catholic Scholars: instead of limiting himself to writing down commentary on the appearance of three comets in 1618, he wrote a rebuttal to the published observations of a scholar at the Roman College. In 1624, after an audience with newly elected Pope Urban VIII, Galileo petitioned him to accept the heliocentric model of the solar system. After the Pope said no, Gelileo published a lengthy treatise on the solar system anyway. Although only published in 1630 due to complications tied to his health the Church insisted on his presence, and in 1633 he was summoned before the Inquisition again. Now, his book had already been banned in 1632, reinforcing the assumption that Gelileo Galilei could have been reasonably expected to be expecting the Inquisition. ( i bet you didnt expect this response )

    What do you think generates tides in life or elsewhere ? Aside from the factors of insight, foresight , intelligence, experience, etc . 'luck or unluck' can be greatly modified by the 'cosmic tides' ( which really modify our nsight, foresight , intelligence, experience, etc . making us think we are lucky or unlucky ) Here are some of the ' lucky and unlucky' patterns / 'life tides' Saturn return ; at 28 and double Saturn return at 56 ..... unlucky ? Man, I am lucky to still be alive after that ! Venus return is nice " Keywords for the Venus Return are leisure, pleasure, happiness, popularity, social contacts, romance, gifts, the love nature." - sorta around 12 months . We often hear people going " Oh Gosh ! Mercury must be retrograde again ! There goes the communication and understanding " .... pshaw! Mercury is always going retrograde, and retrograde may not mean that at all . Of course the Moon has the most effect and most cycles that effect us ... and nature - it effects all of nature and we are part of nature, so we are effected. New Moon - Full Moon 29.5 days Moon Opposite Saturn 27.5 days Ascending and Descending Moon 27.3 days The Moon Nodes * 27.2 days Apogee & Perigee * 27.5 days Moon in Zodiac segment 27.3 days [ * some associated dynamics in these cycles can cause 'unlucky' : Nodes: The Moon while crossing in front of the Sun will negate the Sun's beneficent influence for this brief period. Some cultures consider this negative and do not plant sow or harvest, or do any activity during this period. Ag / Pg : Ap and Pg is considered 'stressful' activity is limited 12 hours either side . ]

  24. Throwing stick

    Just as I thought! You dont know what you are talking about . I suggest you learn about boomerangs from OTHER then roadrunner and coyote cartoons The 'sticks that are supposed to come back to the thrower' are just one type and are used for a particular purpose. The thrower does not 'aim at himself' . Nor does he 'have to miss' nor 'stand there waiting' . You have made assumptions about what is going on without understanding ... aside from pop representations . 'War ' or 'fighting boomerangs' are not for throwing or are 'coming back'. How do you think the guy got the back of his head split open in the pic above ? Did you think he threw a boomerang and it came back and hit the thrower ? I see you have no idea how the weapon is used in a fight or war , it is very effective when used properly ; Meanwhile , his enemy runs over and clobbers him with a properly designed club boomerang , which indexes in hand, offers mechanical advantage , or has a real point on it. It can be used like a club that breaks bones or skull, it has an edge that can do things like in the above picture, and its bent angle can be used like a hook, to capture, lever and manipulate the limbs, ina tussle .... like the 'kama' .
