Articlesby Donald Cyr Explorers, traders, even settlers, left their words inscribed on canyon walls, on artifacts, and on trade goods found in the Americas many centuries before Columbus sailed the ocean blue. For many strange reasons, the very idea of alphabets carved on such objects and in America is generally considered to be without scientific value. Most examples are considered to be forgeries or fakes and are conveniently discounted by those who guide our thinking. by William Donato An ambitious new research project, a multi-pronged investigation into the many archeological mysteries of Bimini, is currently in the planning stages. Funded by Law of One Research Corporation, a Massachusetts-based foundation dedicated to following up on the work of Edgar Cayce, the project is a continuation of Project: Alta, begun in 1993 by The Atlantis Organization. The new investigations will focus on high-priority sites as well as seeking out new ones. The emphasis in 1993 was to seek out new sites by means of aerial reconnaissance and side-scan sonar, as well as to investigate the zoomorphic (animal-shaped) effigy mound designated as the Cobra Mound, which was discovered on an earlier trip. by Rand Flem-Ath In November of 1993 I received a fax from John Anthony West that started me on a four-year quest. The article that slipped through the fax machine that day had been written by an Egyptian-born construction engineer by the name of Robert Bauval. Little did I suspect that Bauval would soon become known for his revolutionary theory that the pyramids of Egypt were a mirror image of the constellation of Orion (see The Orion Mystery). However, in the article I read that day Robert had taken his idea even further. He revealed that not only the pyramids but also that most famous of all sculptures, the Sphinx, was oriented to the constellation of Orion as it appeared in 10,500 B.C. (see The Message of the Sphinx). by Freddy Silva For over twenty years the normally quaint and quiet English countryside has slowly been overrun by a phenomenon more akin to It Came From Outer Space than to cream tea. Fields long accustomed to entertaining wheat, barley, or canola are, with increasing frequency, playing host to magnificent pictograms in the form of crop circles: areas of flattened crop as large as 100,000 square feet where plants are bent an inch above soil level and gently laid down in geometrically-precise pictograms, with no visible signs of damage or human entry.PSYCHIC DISCOVERIES SINCE THE COLD WAR When in 1982 Astraea, a small and struggling Atlanta publishing house, introduced a gigantic, profusely illustrated hardback by previously unknown author Richard W. Noone, not too many noticed. At that time the threat posed by enormous polar ice buildups coupled with factors such as global warming and unfortunate astronomical alignments had been considered only by a very few. Fewer still took seriously the work of unsung scientists such as Charles Hapgood, Augustus LePlongeon, Immanuel Vilikovsky, and many others cited. Nevertheless the new volume slowly began to generate respectable sales and in 1986 Crown Publishing of New York took notice and added 5/5/2000 Ice: The Ultimate Disaster, to its list. In the intervening years the book has never once been out of print, with total sales running into six figures. And, in fact, as its following has steadily grown, it has become something of an underground classic. by Cynthia Gage Science, asserts Dr. Candace B. Pert, is feminine. It's a conclusion she has reached after spending 25 years of rigorous, exacting research at the lab bench, forging her way to the top of a profession long dominated by men and the male perspective. Now, as Research Professor in the Department of Biophysics and Physiology at Georgetown University School of Medicine, she is considered one of the most pre-eminent neuroscientists in the world. by Stephen Mehler (In issue #10, Stephen Mehler reported on the search for a secret entrance to the Great Pyramid. The late Dr. R.O. Kinnaman claimed that, in the company of Sir William Flinders Petrie, he found just such an entrance. In an attempt to authenticate the claim Mehler went to Egypt in September and filed this report. |
