Ian Stewart 1995 Numerology is the easiest-and consequently the most dangerous-method for finding patterns. It is easy because anybody can do it and dangerous for the same reason. The difficulty lies in distinguishing significant numerical patterns from accidental ones. Here's a case in point. Kepler was fascinated with patterns in nature, and he devoted much of his life to looking for them in the behaviour of the planets. He devised a simple and tidy theory for the existence of precisely six planets (in his time only Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn were known). He also discovered a very strange pattern relating the orbital period of a / planet- the time it takes to go once around the Sun-to its distance from the Sun. Recall that the square of a number is what you get when you multiply it by itself: for example, the square of 4 is 4 x 4 = 16. Similarly, the cube is what you get when you multiply it by itself twice: for example, the cube of 4 is 4 x 4 x 4 = 64. Kepler found that if you take the cube of the distance of any planet from the Sun and divide it by the square of its orbital period, you always get the same number. It was not an especially elegant number, but it was the same for all six planets. Which of these numerological observations is the more significant? The verdict of posterity is that it is the second one, the complicated and rather arbitrary calculation with squares and cubes. This numerical pattern was one of the key steps towards Isaac Newton's theory of gravity, which has explained all sorts of puzzles about the motion of stars and planets. In contrast, Kepler's neat, tidy theory for the number of planets has been buried without trace. For a start it must have been wrong, because we now know of nine planets, not six. There could be even more, farther out from the Sun, and small enough to be undetectable But more important, we no longer expect to find a neat, tidy theory for the number of planets. We think that the Solar System condensed from a cloud of gas surrounding the Sun, and the number of planets presumably depended on the amount of matter in the gas cloud, how it was distributed, and how fast and in what directions it was moving. An equally plausible gas cloud could have given us eight planets, or eleven; the number is accidental, depending on the initial conditions of the gas cloud, rather than universal, reflecting a general law of nature" Page 6 " The big problem with numerological pattern-seeking is that it generates millions of accidentals for each universal. Nor is it always obvious which is which. For example, there are three stars, roughly equally spaced and in a straight line, in the belt of the constellation Orion. Is that a clue to a significant law of nature? Chapter 6 Page 81 "Nature's symmetries can be found on every scale, from the structure of subatomic particles to that of the entire universe. Many chemical molecules are symmetric. The methane molecule is a tetrahedron - a triangular-sided pyramid - with one carbon atom at its center and four hydrogen atoms at its corners Benzene has the sixfold symmetry of a regular hexagon. The fashionable molecule buckminsterfullerene is a truncated icosahedral cage of sixty carbon atoms. (An icosahedron is a regular solid with twenty triangular faces;

Algorithm Flow chart of an algorithm (Euclid's algorithm) for calculating the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) of two numbers a and b in locations named A and B. The algorithm proceeds by successive subtractions in two loops: IF the test B ≥ A yields "yes" (or true) (more accurately the number b in location B is greater than or equal to the number a in location A) THEN, the algorithm specifies B ← B − A (meaning the number b − a replaces the old b). Similarly, IF A > B, THEN A ← A − B. The process terminates when (the contents of) B is 0, yielding the g.c.d. in A. (Algorithm derived from Scott 2009:13; symbols and drawing style from Tausworthe 1977). Informal definition No human being can write fast enough, or long enough, or small enough† ( †"smaller and smaller without limit ...you'd be trying to write on molecules, on atoms, on electrons") to list all members of an enumerably infinite set by writing out their names, one after another, in some notation. But humans can do something equally useful, in the case of certain enumerably infinite sets: They can give explicit instructions for determining the nth member of the set, for arbitrary finite n. Such instructions are to be given quite explicitly, in a form in which they could be followed by a computing machine, or by a human who is capable of carrying out only very elementary operations on symbols.[13] Minsky: "But we will also maintain, with Turing . . . that any procedure which could "naturally" be called effective, can in fact be realized by a (simple) machine. Although this may seem extreme, the arguments . . . in its favor are hard to refute".[19] Gurevich: "...Turing's informal argument in favor of his thesis justifies a stronger thesis: every algorithm can be simulated by a Turing machine ... according to Savage [1987], an algorithm is a computational process defined by a Turing machine".[20]

Examples of such problems are those ... _____________________________________________ What is e? Who first used e? How do you find it? How many digits does it have? e = 2.71828..., the Base of Natural Logarithms e is a real number constant that appears in some kinds of mathematics problems. Examples of such problems are those involving growth or decay (including compound interest), the statistical "bell curve," the shape of a hanging cable (or the Gateway Arch in St. Louis), some problems of probability, some counting problems, and even the study of the distribution of prime numbers. It appears in Stirling's Formula for approximating factorials. It also shows up in calculus quite often, wherever you are dealing with either logarithmic or exponential functions. There is also a connection between e and complex numbers, via Euler's Equation. e is usually defined by the following equation: e = limn->infinity (1 + 1/n)n. Its value is approximately 2.718281828459045... and has been calculated to 869,894,101 decimal places by Sebastian Wedeniwski (you'll find the first 50 digits in a Table of constants with 50 decimal places, from the Numbers, constants and computation site, by Xavier Gourdon and Pascal Sebah). The number e was first studied by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler in the 1720s, although its existence was more or less implied in the work of John Napier, the inventor of logarithms, in 1614. Euler was also the first to use the letter e for it in 1727 (the fact that it is the first letter of his surname is coincidental). As a result, sometimes e is called the Euler Number, the Eulerian Number, or Napier's Constant (but not Euler's Constant). An effective way to calculate the value of e is not to use the defining equation above, but to use the following infinite sum: e = 1/0! + 1/1! + 1/2! + 1/3! + 1/4! + ... If you need K decimal places, compute each term to K+3 decimal places and add them up. You can stop adding after the term 1/n! where n! > 10K+3, because, to K+3 decimal places, the rest of the terms are all zero. Even though there are infinitely many of them, they will not change the decimal places you have already calculated. Now the last decimal place or two of the resulting sum may be off due to truncation or rounding of each term, but the first K places should be correct. That is why the computation uses extra decimal places. As an example, here is the computation of e to 22 decimal places: Then to 22 decimal places, e = 2.7182818284590452353603, which is correct. (Actually,it's correct to 25 places, but that was luck!). It is a fact (proved by Euler) that e is an irrational number, so its decimal expansion never terminates, nor is it eventually periodic. Thus no matter how many digits in the expansion of e you know, the only way to predict the next one is to compute e using the method above using more accuracy. It is also true that e is a transcendental number (a fact first proved in 1873 by the French mathematician Charles Hermite), which means that e is not the root of any polynomial with rational number coefficients. These are properties that e shares with pi. The Dr. Math archives contain one proof of The Irrationality of e, and on the Web is another by Kevin Brown. e is also the base of natural logarithms. The natural logarithm function ln(x) is defined that way: ln(x) = loge(x). This is "natural" for several reasons. One is the following limit: ln(x) = limk->0 (xk-1)/k. Another example from calculus is that if y = ln(x) + c, for c constant, then dy/dx = 1/x, and these are the only functions for which this is true. Another is that the curve y = ln(x) has a tangent at (1,0) with slope 1, and among all logarithmic functions, it is the only one that does. Note: The term Euler's Constant is usually reserved for another number also first studied by Euler, 0.5772156649... = limn->infinity [1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + ... + 1/n - ln(n)]. [Return to text.]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cogito_ergo_sum Cogito ergo sum[a] is a Latin philosophical proposition by René Descartes usually translated into English as "I think, therefore I am". The phrase originally appeared in French as je pense, donc je suis in his Discourse on the Method, so as to reach a wider audience than Latin would have allowed.[1] It appeared in Latin in his later Principles of Philosophy. As Descartes explained, "[W]e cannot doubt of our existence while we doubt … ." A fuller form, dubito, ergo cogito, ergo sum ("I doubt, therefore I think, therefore I am"),[b] aptly captures Descartes' intent. This proposition became a fundamental element of Western philosophy, as it purported to form a secure foundation for knowledge in the face of radical doubt. While other knowledge could be a figment of imagination, deception, or mistake, Descartes asserted that the very act of doubting one's own existence served—at minimum—as proof of the reality of one's own mind; there must be a thinking entity—in this case the self—for there to be a thought.

BURIED ANGELS Camilla Lackburg 2011 Translated from the Swedish by Tiina Nunnally 2014 Page 189 "...A mobile began ringing in the living room, and he jumped up. 'Sorry, but do you mind if I answer that?' Without waiting for her reply, he left the kitchen, and Erica heard him speaking in a low voice. No one else seemed to be at home. She gazed around the room while she waited. A pile of documents stacked up on a kitchen chair caught her interest. Casting a quick glance over her shoulder, she began leafing through the pages. They seemed for the most part to be records of parliamentary proceedings and meetings, but then she gave a start. Between two printouts she found a piece of paper covered with scribbles that she couldn't decipher. From the living room she heard Holm saying goodbye, so she quickly pulled the page out of the pile of documents and slipped it into her handbag. When he returned to the kitchen, she gave him an innocent smile. 'Everything okay?' He nodded and sat down again." Page 209 Several months later, John Holm's name appeared for the first time in connection with the National Socialists. 'And his hatred hasn't diminished,' said Erica, reaching for her handbag. She took out the note and handed it to Kjell. 'I found this in Holm's house yesterday. [can't read what it says, but maybe it's important.' He laughed. 'Define what you mean by found.' 'You sound exactly like Patrik,' said Erica, smiling. 'It was just lying there. I'm sure it's only a scribbled note that nobody will ever miss.' 'Let me see.' Kjell put on his reading glasses, which he'd pushed up on his forehead. 'Gimle,' he read aloud, frowning. 'Yes. What does that mean? I've never come across the word before. Is it an abbreviation of some sort?' Kjell shook his head. 'Gimle is what comes after Ragnarok, the end of the world in Nordic mythology. A sort of heaven or paradise. It's a well-known concept and frequently used in neo-Nazi circles. It's also the name of a cultural association. They claim not to be affiliated with any political party, but I have my doubts on that score. They're certainly popular with both the Friends of Sweden and the Danish People's Party.' And what do they do?' 'According to their literature, their aim is to revive nationalistic feelings and a shared identity through reviving old Swedish traditions, folk dancing, ancient Swedish poetry, relics of antiquity, and so on. All of which fits in with the purported goal of the Friends of Sweden to promote Swedish traditions.' 'So Gimle might also be a reference to that association?' She pointed at the paper. Erica shrugged. 'I haven't a clue. I thought they might have been scribbled down in a hurry, the way you do when you're on the phone.' 'Could be,' said Kjell. He waved the paper in the air. 'Can I keep this?' 'Sure, go ahead. I'll just use my mobile to take a picture, in case I suddenly get a flash of inspiration and crack the code.' 'Good idea.' He pushed the paper across to her, and she took a picture. Then she knelt down on the rug and began tidying up after the children. 'Do you have any idea what you're going to do with that?' 'No, not really. I might start by exploring a few archives, see if I can come up with more information.' 'It could be. In any case, it's worth checking out.' 'Keep me posted, and I'll let you know if I find anything new.' She began ushering the kids towards the hall. 'Of course. We'll keep in touch,' Kjell said, reaching for the phone. It was so typical. If Gosta arrived late, there was hell to pay, while Patrik could be gone half the morning and nobody raised an eyebrow. Erica had phoned last night and told Gosta about her visits to Ove Linder and John Holm. Now he was impatiently awaiting Patrik's arrival so they could go see Leon. Sighing at the unfairness of life, he returned to studying the list on his desk. Page390 "...This was more than a scoop for him as a journalist — this story was going to have reverberations in Swedish politics and shock the entire country. 'Thanks for including me,' he muttered, feeling suddenly embarrassed. Sven shrugged. 'We wouldn't have been able to finalize things if you hadn't provided the information that you did.' 'So you were able to decode the numbers?' Kjell was practically bursting with curiosity. Sven hadn't told him all the details on the phone. 'It was a ridiculously simple code.' Sven -laughed. 'My kids could have cracked it in fifteen minutes.' 'What do you mean?' 'One was "A", two was "B". And so on.' 'You're joking.' Kjell glanced over at Sven and almost drove off the road. 'No, I wish I was. It just shows how stupid they think we are.' So what did you find out?' In his mind Kjell tried to picture the numbers, but he'd never been good at maths in school. Nowadays he could barely remember his own phone number. 'Stureplan. It said Stureplan. Followed by a date and a time.' 'Jesus Christ,' Kjell said, turning right on to the roundabout near Torp. 'That could have been disastrous.' 'Yes, but the police went in early this morning to pick up the people who were going to carry out the attack. Now they can't communicate with anyone to reveal that the police know all about the plan. That's why this is so urgent. It won't be long before the responsible individuals in the party notice that they haven't heard from the attackers, nor can they contact them. And then they'll be on guard, and we won't have another chance.'

PROPER PEOPLE EARLY ASYLUM LIFE IN THE WORDS OF THOSE WHO WERE THERE David Scrimgeour 2015 Proper People takes the reader back in time to the early nineteenth century to meet some of the mentally ill patients who passed through Yorkshire's West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum in Wakefield during the first 50 years of its existence. Using transcriptions from the celebrated collection of original asylum records held by the West Yorkshire Archive Service - casebooks, reception orders, annual reports, journals together with contemporary newspaper articles, the patients' stories are told using the actual words of those who were there at that time, their physicians, poor law officers, reporters and sometimes even the patients themselves...." Page 1 Introduction "Many excellent books have already been published about the county asylums of the nineteenth century, but little has been revealed of the "pauper lunatics" themselves - the tens of thousands of people receiving poor relief and suffering from mental illness who passed through the asylum doors. While there is a lot of general information available, social historians are, relatively speaking, starved of material providing a deeper insight into the lives of the patients, material that might allow them to answer key questions, such as: Why were they in an asylum? What was life really like for them while they were there? What happened to them in the long term? What was the impact on their families? Proper People is my contribution towards gaining a better understanding by looking at the lives of just a few of those patients, all admissions to the West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum in Yorkshire, England, in the early part of the 1800s. Why this title, Proper People? In 1819, a magistrate committing someone to an asylum would sign a warrant declaring that the person was a "proper object" to be admitted. Fifty years later, the expression used had become "proper person". Proper People has been written about some of those early asylum patients, and through their stories the reader is very much reminded that they Were, as all patients are today, real people, proper people, not objects, suffering from a period of mental illness. Page 2 "I chose Stanley Royd Hospital in Wakefield, originally known as the West Riding Pauper Lunatic Asylum...." Page 17 Patients Admitted 1818-1829
2nd June, 1819. Pulse near 100, complains of debility. 4th December, 1819. Complains of pain at his stomach which he thinks will be cured by tincture of rhubarb. 22nd March, 1820. Appetite impaired - bowels regular. 14th April, 1820. Pulse 90. Urine high coloured - complains of pain in his back, heat natural. 17th April, 1820. Pulse 80 - looks better and has less pain in his back. Later that year John FIELD, presumably by then free from any problems with his stomach and back, decided to take a short break from the Asylum. 10th November, 1820. Escaped over the airing court wall last night about six o'clock. He returned of his own accord about 5 o'clock this morning. 11th November, 1820. Has not been well since his return - complains of sickness - tongue white. It hadn't taken John long to find something else to complain about. John's case notes from that time onwards record nothing particularly unusual until 25 years after his admission when his doctor added the following extraordinary description of how John used to spend some of his time in the Asylum. June, 1844. For years his frequent occupation has been to sit down on the flags, take a piece of tobacco pipe and commence figuring. He /page 18/ uses the Arabic numerals in order, for the letters of the Alphabet; A is represented by figure 1, B by 2, C by 3, D by 4, etc; thus his rows of figures are in the place of letters, and his occupation is writing by cyphers. For example, the name John Field stands thus, 10 15 8 14 6 9 5 12 4. Having obtained these numbers, or others furnished by any other words, he multiplies, adds, divides or subtracts them in numerous ways. Hence it will be easily perceived that the combination being unlimited, an infinite variety of results may be obtained. These resulting figures are, in their turn, considered as letters, which are formed into words, sometimes rational, but generally most anomalous and unheard of sounds. They have usually some personal signification - the name of an estate to which he is entitled; the person who left it to him, the act of Parliament according to which he ought to be set at liberty, the time of his liberation, the money owing to him, the name of his secret enemy, etc, etc, etc. It is unknown how he got this system of cyphers; the probability is that he has learnt it from someone; he appears to regard it as a means of arriving at secret knowledge, and practices it as an astrologer in former times would consult the stars. The following is an instance - he said "N o n e spells none, or no ne, and it is in the last clause of the act, and signifies that they have no right to keep me here". He then writes it down, 14 15 14 5; these figures he divides, with great facility of manner, by 12 (the number of pence in a shilling) and by 20 (the number of shillings in a pound) 12\ 14 15 14 5 This he reads "Five thousand eight hundred and ninety-six stops. This is what they have to pay me an hour. These marks are against them". But the irrational, incoherent explanations are too intricate, too extensive, and moreover too mystical to be followed any length. All the concerns of life undergo this perplexing process, and to a listener he will discourse in this way for a very long time, yet in many matters of everyday life he is shrewd and intelligent. John's case notes show that there was to be little change in his health or behaviour during the next eleven years and that is also reflected in the Chaplain's Journal. The Asylum chaplain, Reverend Thomas Bayley Clarkson, had been appointed by the Committee of Visitors in 1843, when aged 48. He kept a journal during the 26 years of his tenure and over time it had spread to multiple volumes but only one leather bound volume has survived, covering 1853-1854. It is written very neatly and every patient mentioned appears in an index at the front. The Reverend Clarkson's journal was intended to be inspected by the visiting magistrates so in it he recorded all the services which had been conducted, statistics of attendees, the names of patients and staff who had taken communion and, of great value in better understanding the "proper people", his insightful reflections on the patients with whom he had come into contact. John FIELD features in the Chaplain's Journal in an entry made on 17th March, 1854.3 It is as long ago as the month of January, in the last year V. VII P. 455 since allusion has been made to John Field now in the 36th year of his captivity! So mutch has in earlier volumes been said about him and so little change has taken place, physically or mentally, during the eleven summers and winters which the Writer has passed in close neighbourhood with him that a few sentences would comprise all that needs be added in order to bring down his uneventful history to the present date. Page 20 from the Chaplain's Journal 1854 (omitted?) The little change which has occurred in John's outward man is rather for the better; for, contrary to the usual course of nature, his wrinkled face is looking fresher, and, his person stouter, than was the case years /page 21/ ago; and this notwithstanding considerable peevish irregularity in the eating of his meals. His age is about 75, and he seems to promise fair for an extreme old age. He has a good deal of personal strength remaining and the tones of his voice are in good force, though not always well employed. As for his delusions they are just as extravagant and multitudinous as ever, embracing every subject in creation, and consequently admitting of no increases. To argue with him on any supposable topic would be as hopeless as the attempt to cut down an aged oak with a pen knife. The most courteous contradiction of any of his absurdities is what he does not at all like but perseverance in argument is sure to put him into a pet, and perhaps to elicit an oath. "Vocas in certamina divos." The latter part of the charge against him the Writer, however, knows only from report: he has always succeeded in living on good terms with the irritable old man, and has rarely heard him swear. His most troublesome hallucination - as is well known - is to the effect that he is the most injured individual on the face of the earth; inasmuch as, being a man of immense wealth and lawful master of the Institution and of every thing contained in it, his servants (the Chaplain included) are wickedly and for interested purposes forcibly debarring him from the enjoyment of his own by means of false accusations; - he himself maintaining, and firmly believing that his own sense amounts to more than the "collective wisdom" of the whole community. "Give me a key and let me go down to the Bank and see if my money is safe", such is the burden of his cry, often accompanied with violent threats in the event of non-compliance. Occasionally, he puts this demand in a form which it is difficult to evade. "My excellent John", the Chaplain said to him the other day, "I assure you I have no more power to let you out, than I have to jump over the moon." "Oh! You haven't" was his reply; "well then, say that is not a key that you have in your hand, and I'll believe you" - "I can't spare my key, John" - "Why, bless you! (1 give it you again as soon as ever I came back from the Bank", was his rejoinder. This appeal being insufficient, he turned abruptly away in dudgeon and mal content. This is a point to which it is as well to bring the poor man at once, for let him lay hold of a button, or thrust his person within the half-/page 21/opened door, and there is no end of the discussion which follows, and which cannot be terminated without an appearance of discourtesy which it is always desirable to avoid with reference to insane patients. It will be concluded that this venerable inmate is not at all a subject for the Chaplain's ministry; and this admission is made on his part in the widest sense. The attempt to teach him a religious idea would be as insensate a thing as to pour water into a sieve in the expectation that it would prove a retentive receptacle of the fluid. John, in fact, knows this, as well as every other thing, better than any one else, and disdains to be a scholar in any respect. Assert in his hearing that black is not white, and he will forthwith engage to prove to you by arithmetic, his usual recourse, that you are entirely in the wrong. Sometimes, when, in the earlier stage of his acquaintance with Field the Chaplain has addressed him seriously on the subject of eternity, and perhaps, proposed to read him a chapter of the Bible, - putting on an expression of mingled surprise, pity, and profound sagacity, he would exclaim, "The Bible! Why I could teach you things out of the Bible that you never knew, and that nobody knows but me." And he would sometimes proceed to demonstrations, which, in the mouth of a sane person, would amount to blasphemy. He is, therefore, better let alone, and left to Almighty God, from whom he will receive that measure of mercy through Christ, of which all stand in need, when his failings shall be weighed against his opportunities in an answering balance. It will perhaps be recollected, that the Chaplain when speaking of this well known aboriginal inmate of this Asylum, has always given him credit for the possession of several good qualities; more especially, for an absence of selfishness, which is not always, unusually, a characteristic of the Insane; and for open-handed munificence. This latter endowment sounds oddly as an attribute of a pauper-lunatic, not possessed of a groat : but if destitute of tangible, he is richly endowed with ideal wealth, and has the heart, if not the power to dispense it liberally. Often has the Writer felt pain, and some degree of shame, when compelled to turn the remorseless key upon one whom the moment before has, in his own belief conferred upon him a noble gift. "Take this piece of paper", he would say "and go with it to the Bank; its for a thousand pounds; it will do you good, and when you've /page 23/spent it, come to me, and you shall have some more." Sometimes his benevolence puts on a humbler shape: "You look poorly this morning, as if you hadn't had a good breakfast: go down to the house-keeper's room, and get some ham and eggs, and say I sent you". Such redeeming traits go far to ensure a certain measure of respect for John, notwithstanding not a few faults in his disposition, and more tolerance than he would otherwise gain as an inordinate abuser of the time and patience of others. Despite the Chaplain's prediction for John looking as if he would reach "an extreme old age" that was not to be as, in January the following year, John's health began to decline. He started to refuse medicine, his language became incoherent and he expressed ever more deluded notions. John FIELD, cypher writer, passed away on 9th May, 1855, at the age of 71 years having spent over half of his life in the Asylum. He was buried at Holy Trinity Church in nearby Rothwell, four days later.'

They have usually some personal signification - the name of an estate to which he is entitled; the person who left it to him, the act of Parliament according to which he ought to be set at liberty, the time of his liberation, the money owing to him, the name of his secret enemy, etc, etc, etc. It is unknown how he got this system of cyphers; the probability is that he has learnt it from someone; he appears to regard it as a means of arriving at secret knowledge, and practices it as an astrologer in former times would consult the stars.

DARKNESS AT NOON Arthur Koestler THE FIRST HEARING Page 19 Rubashov walked up and down in the cell, from the door to the window and back, between bunk, wash-basin and bucket, six and a half steps there, six and a half steps back. At the door he turned to the right, at the window to the left: it was an old prison habit; if one did not change the direction of the turn one rapidly became dizzy. What went on in No. l's brain? He pictured to himself a cross-section through that brain, painted neatly with grey water-colour on a sheet of paper stretched on a drawing-board with drawing-pins. The whorls of grey matter swelled to entrails, they curled round one /page 20/ another like muscular snakes, became vague and misty like the spiral nebulas on astronomical charts. . . . What went on in the inflated grey whorls? One knew everything about the far-away spiral nebulas, but about them nothing. That was probably the reason that history was more of an oracle than a science. Perhaps later, much later, it would be taught by means of tables of statistics, supplemented by such anatomical sections. The teacher would draw on the blackboard an algebraic formula representing the conditions of life of the masses of a particular nation at a particular period: 'Here, citizens, you see the objective factors which conditioned this historical process.' And, pointing with his ruler to a grey foggy landscape between the second and third lobe of No. l's brain: 'Now here you see the subjective reflection of these factors. It was this which in the second quarter of the twentieth century led to the triumph of the totalitarian principle in the East of Europe.' Until this stage was reached, politics would remain bloody dilettantism, mere superstition and black magic. . . . Rubashov heard the sound of several people marching down the corridor in step. His first thought was: now the beating-up will start. He stopped in the middle of the cell, listening, his chin pushed forward. The marching steps came to a halt before one of the neighbouring cells, a low command was heard, the keys jangled. Then there was silence. Rubashov stood stiffly between the bed and the bucket, held his breath, and waited for the first scream. He remembered that the first scream, in which terror still predominated over physical pain, was usually the worst; what followed was already more bearable, one got used to it and after a time one could even draw conclusions on the method of torture from the tone and rhythm of the screams. Towards the end, most people behaved in the same way, however different they were in temperament and voice: the screams became weaker, changed over into whining and choking. Usually the door would slam soon after. The keys would jangle again; and the first scream of the next victim often came even before they had touched him. at the mere sight of the men in the doorway. Rubashov stood in the middle of his cell and waited for the first scream. He rubbed his glasses on his sleeve and said to /page 21/ himself that he would not scream this time either, whatever happened to him. He repeated this sentence as if praying with a rosary. He stood and waited: the scream still did not come. Then he heard a faint clanging, a voice murmured something, the cell-door slammed. The footsteps moved to the next cell. Rubashov went to the spy-hole and looked into the corridor. The men stopped nearly opposite his cell, at No. 407. There was the old warder with two orderlies dragging a tub of tea, a third carrying a basket with slices of black bread, and two uniformed officials with pistols. There was no beating-up; they were bringing breakfast.... No. 407 was just being given bread. Rubashov could not see him. No. 407 was presumably standing in the regulation position, a step behind the door; Rubashov could only see his forearms and hands. The arms were bare and very thin; like two parallel sticks, they stuck out of the doorway into the corridor. The palms of the invisible No. 407 were turned upwards, curved in the shape of a bowl. When he had taken the bread, he clasped his hands and withdrew into the darkness of his cell. The door slammed. Rubashov abandoned the spy-hole and resumed his marching up and down. He ceased rubbing his spectacles on his sleeve, put them in place, breathed deeply and with relief. He whistled a tune and waited for his breakfast. He remembered with a slight feeling of uneasiness those thin arms and the curved hands; they reminded him vaguely of something he could not define. The outlines of those stretched-out hands and even the shadows on them were familiar to him — familiar and yet gone from his memory like an old tune or the smell of a narrow street in a harbour. 7 The procession had unlocked and slammed a row of doors, but not yet his. Rubashov went back to the judas, to see whether they were coming at last; he was looking forward to the hot tea. The tub had been steaming, and thin slices of lemon had floated on its surface. He took off his pince-nez and pressed his eye to the spy-hole. His range of sight held four of the /page 22/ cells opposite : Nos. 401 to 407. Above the cells ran a narrow iron gallery; behind it were more cells, those of the second Rubashov began to drum on the door with his fists. He saw that the two orderlies with the tub looked at each other and glanced at his door. The warder busied himself with the lock on the door of No. 402 and pretended not to hear. The two men in uniform stood with their backs to Rubashov's spy-hole. Now the bread was being passed in through the door of No. 402; the procession started to move on. Rubashov drummed more loudly. He toqk a shoe off and banged on the door with it. The bigger of the two men in uniform turned round, stared expressionlessly at Rubashov's door and turned away again. Rubashov drew back a step from his door and waited for it to open. The tension inside him gave way suddenly; he did not care any more whether he was given tea or not. The tea in the tub had no longer steamed on the way back and the slices of lemon on the rest of the pale yellow liquid had looked limp and shrunken. The key was turned in his door, then a staring pupil appeared in the spy-hole and disappeared again. The door flew open. Rubashov had seated himself on the bed and was put-/page 23/ ing his shoe on again. The warder held the door open for the big man in uniform who entered the cell. He had a round, clean-shaven skull and expressionless eyes. His stiff uniform creaked; so did his boots; Rubashov thought he could smell the leather of his revolver belt. He stopped next to the bucket and looked round the cell, which seemed to have become smaller through his presence. 'You have not cleaned up your cell,' he said to Rubashov. 'Why was I omitted at breakfast?' said Rubashov, examining the officer through his pince-nez. 'If you want to argue with me, you will have to stand up,' said the officer. 'I haven't got the slightest desire to argue or even to speak to you,' said Rubashov, and laced up his shoe. 'Then don't bang on the door next time, else the usual disciplinary measures will have to be applied to you,' said the officer. He looked round the cell again. 'The prisoner has no mop to clean the floor,' he said to the warder. The warder said something to the bread-orderly, who vanished down the corridor at a trot. The two other orderlies stood in the open doorway and gazed into the cell with curiosity. The second officer had his back turned; he stood in the corridor with his legs straddled and his hands behind his back. 'The prisoner has no eating bowl either,' said Rubashov, still busied with the lacing of his shoe. 'I suppose you want to save me the trouble of a hunger-strike. I admire your new methods.' 'You are mistaken,' said the officer, looking at him expressionlessly. He had a broad scar on his shaven skull and wore the ribbon of the Revolutionary Order in his button-hole. So he was in the Civil War, after all, thought Rubashov. But that is long ago and makes no difference now. . . . 'You are mistaken. You were left out at breakfast because you had reported yourself sick.' 'Toothache,' said the old warder, who stood leaning against the door. He still wore slippers, his uniform was crumpled and spotted with grease. 'As you like,' said Rubashov. It was on the tip of his tongue /page 24/ to ask whether it was the latest achievement of the regime to treat invalids by compulsory fasting, but he controlled himself. He was sick of the whole scene. The bread-orderly came running, panting, and flapping a dirty rag. The warder took the rag out of his hand and threw it in a corner next to the bucket. 'Leave me alone and stop this comedy,' said Rubashov. The officer turned to go, the warder jangled his bunch of keys. Rubashov went to the window, turning his back on them. When the door had slammed he remembered that he had forgotten the chief thing and with a bound he was back at the door. 8 Rubashov resumed walking up and down his cell, six and a half steps to the window, six and a half steps back. The scene had stirred him; he recapitulated it in minute detail while rubbing his pince-nez on his sleeve. He tried to hold on to the hatred he had for a few minutes felt for the officer with the scar; he thought it might stiffen him for the coming struggle. Instead, he fell once more under the familiar and fatal constraint to put himself in the position of his opponent, and to see the scene through the other's eyes. There he had sat, this man Rubashov, on the bunk — small, bearded and arrogant, and in an obviously provocative manner, and put his shoe on over the sweaty sock. Of course, this man Rubashov had his merits and a great past, but it was a different thing to see him on the platform at a congress or on a palliasse in a cell. So that is the legendary Rubasbov, thought Rubashov in the name of/page 25/
the officer with the expressionless eyes. Screams for his breakfast like a schoolboy and isn't even ashamed. Cell not cleaned up. Holes in his socks. Querulous intellectual.Conspired against law and order : whether for money or on principle makes no For a few seconds Rubashov wondered whether he should really scrub the tiles. He stood hesitantly in the middle of the cell, then put his pince-nez on again and propped himself at the window. The yard was now in daylight, a greyish light tinged with yellow, not unfriendly, promising more snow. It was about eight — only three hours had passed since he first entered the cell. The walls surrounding the yard looked like those of barracks; iron gates were in front of all the windows, the cells
behind them were too dark for one to see into them. It was impossible even to see whether anyone stood directly behind his window, looking down, like him, at the snow in the yard. The old disease, thought Rubashov. Revolutionaries should not think through other people's minds. Or, perhaps they should? Or even ought to? How can one change the world if one identifies oneself with everybody? How else can one change it? He who understands and forgives — where would he find a motive to act? Where would he not? They will shoot me, thought Rubashov. My motives will /page 26/ be of no interest to them. He leaned his forehead on the window pane. The yard lay white and still. So he stood for a while, without thinking, feeling the cool glass on his forehead. Gradually, he became conscious of a small but persistent ticking sound in his cell. He turned round listening. The knocking was so quiet that at first he could not distinguish from which wall it came. While be was listening, it stopped. He started tapping himself, first on the wall over the bucket, in the direction of No. 406, but got no answer. He tried the other wall, which separated him from No. 402, next to his bed. Here he got an answer. Rubashov sat down comfortably on the bunk, from where he could keep an eye on the spy-hole, his heart beating. The first contact was always very exciting. No. 402 was now tapping regularly; three times with short intervals, then a pause, then again three times, then again a pause, then again three times. Rubashov repeated the same series to indicate that he heard. He was anxious to find out whether the other knew the 'quadratic alphabet' — otherwise there would be a lot of fumbling until he had taught it to him. The wall was thick, with poor resonance; he had to put his head close to it to hear clearly and at the same time he had to watch the spy-hole. No. 402 had obviously had a lot of practice; he tapped distinctly and unhurriedly, probably with some hard object such as a pencil. While Rubashov was memorizing the numbers, he tried, being out of practice, to visualize the square of letters with the twenty-five compartments — five horizontal rows with five letters in each. No. 402 first tapped five times — accordingly the fifth row: v to z; then twice; so it was the second letter of the row : w. Then a pause; then two taps — the second row, F - j; then three taps — the third letter of the row : H. Then three times and then five times; so fifth letter of the third row: o. He stopped. WHO? A practical person, thought Rubashov; he wants to know at once whom he has to deal with. According to the revolutionary etiquette, he should have started with a political tag; then given the news; then talked of food and tobacco; much later only, days later, if at all, did one introduce oneself. However, /Page 27/ Rubashov's experience had been so far confined to countries in which the Party was persecuted, not persecutor, and the members of the Party, for conspiratorial reasons, knew each other only by their Christian names — and changed even these so often that a name lost all meaning. Here, evidently, it was different, Rubashov hesitated as to whether he should give his name. No. 402 became impatient; he knocked again : WHO? Well, why not? thought Rubashov. He tapped out his full name: NICOLAS SALMANOVICH RUBASHOV, and waited for the result. For a long time there was no answer. Rubashov smiled; he could appreciate the shock it had given his neighbour. He waited a full minute and then another; finally, he shrugged his shoulders and stood up from the bunk. He resumed his walk through the cell, but at every turn he stopped listening to the wall. The wall remained mute. He rubbed his pince-nez on his sleeve, went slowly, with tired steps, to the door and looked through the spy-hole into the corridor. The corridor was empty; the electric lamps spread their stale, faded light; one did not hear the slightest sound. Why had No. 402 become dumb? Probably from fear; he was afraid of compromising himself through Rubashov. Perhaps No. 402 was an unpolitical doctor or engineer who trembled at the thought of his dangerous neighbour. Certainly without political experience, else he would not have asked for the name as a start. Presumably mixed up in some affair of sabotage. Has obviously been in prison quite a time already, has perfected his tapping and is devoured by the wish to prove his innocence. Still in the simple belief that his subjective guilt or innocence makes a difference, and with no idea of the higher interests which are really at stake. In all probability he was now sitting on his bunk, writing his hundredth protest to the authorities, who will never read it, or the hundredth letter to his wife, who will never receive it; has in despair grown a beard — a black Pushkin beard — has given up washing and fallen into the habit of biting his nails and of erotic day-dreams. Nothing is worse in prison than the consciousness of one's innocence; it prevents acclimatization /page 28/ and undermine's one's morale. . . . Suddenly the ticking started again. Rubashov sat down quickly on the bunk; but he had already missed the first two letters. No. 402 was now tapping quickly and less clearly, he was obviously very excited : . . . . RVES YOU RIGHT. `Serves you right.' That was unexpected. No. 402 was a conformist. He hated the oppositional heretics, as one should, believed that history ran on rails according to an infallible plan and an infallible pointsman, No. 1. He believed that his own arrest was merely the result of a misunderstanding, and that all the catastrophes of the last years — from China to Spain, from the famine to the extermination of the old guard — were either regrettable accidents or caused by the devilish tricks of Rubashov and his oppositional friends. No. 402's Pushkin beard vanished; he now had a clean-shaven, fanatical face; he kept his cell painfully tidy and conformed strictly to the regulations. There was no sense in arguing with him; this kind was unteachable. But neither was there any sense in cutting off the only and perhaps the last contact with the world. WHO? knocked Rubashov very clearly and slowly. The answer came in agitated fits and starts : NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. AS YOU LIKE, tapped Rubashov, and stood up to resume his wandering through the cell, taking the conversation to be ended. But the tapping started again, this time very loudly and ringingly — No. 402 had obviously taken off a shoe in order to give more weight to his words : LONG LIVE H.M. THE EMPEROR! So that's it, thought Rubashov. There still exist genuine and authentic counter-revolutionaries — and we thought that nowadays they only occurred in the speeches of No. 1, as scapegoats for his failures. But there sits a real one, an alibi for No. 1 in flesh and blood, roaring; just as he should : long live the Monarch. . . . AMEN, tapped out Rubashov, grinning. The answer came immediately, still louder if possible : SWINE! Page 29 Rubashov was amusing himself. He took off his pince-nez and tapped with the metal edge, in order to change the tone, with a drawling and distinguished intonation : DIDN'T QUITE UNDERSTAND. No. 402 seemed to go into a frenzy. He hammered out NOUN' -, but the D did not come. Instead, his fury suddenly flown, he tapped : WHY HAVE YOU BEEN LOCKED UP? What touching simplicity„ .. The face of No. 402 underwent a new transformation. It became that of a young Guards officer, handsome and stupid. Perhaps he even wore a monocle. Rubashov tapped with his pince-nez : POLITICAL DIVERGENCES. A short pause. No. 402 was obviously searching his brain for a sarcastic answer. It came at last : BRAVO! THE WOLVES DEVOUR EACH OTHER. Rubashov gave no answer. He had enough of this sort of entertainment and started on his wanderings again. But the officer in 402 had become conversational. He tapped : RUBASHOV Well, this was just about verging on familiarity. YES? answered Rubashov. No. 402 seemed to hesitate; then came quite a long sen tence : WHEN DID YOU LAST SLEEP WITH A WOMAN? Certainly No. 402 wore an eye-glass; probably he was tapping with it and the bared eye was twitching nervously. Rubashov did not feel repelled. The man at least showed himself as he was; which was pleasanter than if he had tapped out monarchist manifestos. Rubashov thought it over for a bit, and then tapped : THREE WEEKS AGO. The answer came at once : TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT. Well, really, that was going a bit far. Rubasbov's first impulse was to break off the conversation; but he remembered the man might later become very useful as a connecting link to No. 400 and the cells beyond. The cell to the left was obviously uninhabited; there the chain broke off. Rubashov /page 30/ racked his brain. An old pre-war song came to his memory, which he had heard as a student, in some cabaret where black-stockinged ladies danced the French cancan. He sighed resignedly and tapped with his pince-nez : SNOWY BREASTS FITTING INTO CHAMPAGNE GLASSES. . . . He hoped that was the right tone. It was apparently, for No. 402 urged : GO ON. DETAILS. By this time he was doubtless plucking nervously at his moustache. He certainly had a little moustache with twirled-up ends. The devil take the man; he was the only connecting link; one had to keep up with him. What did officers talk about in the mess? Women and horses. Rubashov rubbed his pince-nez on his sleeve and tapped conscientiously : THIGHS LIKE A WILD MARE. He stopped, exhausted. With the best will in the world he could not do more. But No. 402 was highly satisfied. GOOD CHAP! he tapped enthusiastically. He was doubtless laughing boisterously, but one heard nothing; he slapped his thighs and twirled his moustache, but one saw nothing. The abstract obscenity of the dumb wall was embarrassing to Rubashov. GO ON, urged No. 402. He couldn't. THAT'S ALL — tapped Rubashov and regretted it immediately. No. 402 must not be offended. But fortunately No. 402 did not let himself be offended. He tapped on obstinately with his monocle : GO ON - PLEASE, PLEASE. . . . Rubashov was now again practised to the extent of no longer having to count the signs; he transformed them automatically into acoustic perception. It seemed to him that he actually heard the tone of voice in which No. 402 begged for more erotic material. The begging was repeated: MORE—PLEASE, PLEASE. . . . .Hopelessly staring at the dumb, whitewashed wall, staring at the stains caused by the damp, which gradually began to assume the outlines of the woman with champagne-cup breasts and the thighs of a wild mare. TELL ME MORE — PLEASE. Perhaps he was kneeling on the bunk with his hands folded like the prisoner in No. 407 had folded them to receive his piece of bread. 9 Pieta. . . .

The tap code table The tap code, sometimes called the knock code, is a way to encode text messages on a letter-by-letter basis in a very simple way. The message is transmitted using a series of tap sounds, hence its name. The tap code has been commonly used by prisoners to communicate with each other. The method of communicating is usually by tapping either the metal bars, pipes, or the walls inside a cell. The tap code is based on a Polybius square using a 5×5 grid of letters representing all the letters of the Latin alphabet, except for K, which is represented by C. The listener only needs to discriminate the timing of the taps to isolate letters. Each letter is communicated by tapping two numbers For example, to specify the letter "B", one taps once, pauses, and then taps twice. Or to communicate the word "water", the cipher would be the following (the pause between each number in a pair is smaller than the pause between letters):
The letter "X" is used to break up sentences, and "K" for acknowledgements. Because of the difficulty and length of time required for specifying a single letter, prisoners often devise abbreviations and acronyms for common items or phrases, such as "GN" for Good night, or "GBU" for God bless you.[1] By comparison, Morse code is harder to send by tapping or banging because it requires the ability to create two differently sounding taps (representing the dits and dahs of Morse code). A Morse code novice would also need to keep a "cheat sheet" until he or she remembers every letter's code, which the captors would likely confiscate. Tap code can be more easily decoded in one's head by mentally using the table. For example, if you hear four knocks, you can think A...F...L...Q; then after the pause, you hear three knocks and think Q...R...S to arrive at the letter S. History[edit] The origins of this encoding go back to the Polybius square of Ancient Greece. As the "knock code", a Cyrillic script version is said to have been used by nihilist prisoners of the Russian czars.[2] The knock code is featured in Arthur Koestler's classic 1941 work Darkness at Noon.[3] United States prisoners of war during the Vietnam War are most known for having used the tap code. It was introduced in June 1965 by four POWs held in the Hỏa Lò Prison "Hanoi Hilton" prison: Captain Carlyle "Smitty" Harris, Lieutenant Phillip Butler, Lieutenant Robert Peel, and Lieutenant Commander Robert Shumaker.[1] Harris had heard of the tap code being used by prisoners in World War II[4] and remembered a United States Air Force instructor who had discussed it as well.[1] In Vietnam, the tap code became a very successful way for otherwise isolated prisoners to communicate.[4] POWs would use the tap code in order to communicate to each other between cells in a way which the guards would be unable to pick up on. They used it to communicate everything from what questions interrogators were asking (in order for everyone to stay consistent with a deceptive story), to who was hurt and needed others to donate meager food rations. It was easy to teach and newly arrived prisoners became fluent in it within a few days.[5][6] It was even used when prisoners were sitting next to each other but not allowed to talk, by tapping on anothers' thigh.[6] By overcoming isolation with the tap code, prisoners were able to maintain a chain of command and keep up morale.[4] References[edit] 1.^ Jump up to: a b c "Return with Honor: The Tap Code".

This is why the pyramid skirts of the two statues, guarding the entrance to the Burial Chamber, were triangular (base 3), when the all-seeing eye-skirt of Mereruka contained a pyramid skirt with a base of four sides.

"Page 129 "I returned to Dr. Gliedman's essay. I read the following sentence: "The mind is not the playwright of reality." At that moment there came a knocking on the side of the house. This was a substantial noise, very regular and sharp. The knocks were so exactly spaced that they sounded like they were being produced by a machine. Both cats were riveted with terror. They stared at the wall. The knocks went on, nine of them in three groups of three, followed by a tenth lighter double-knock that communicated an impression of finality. These knocks were coming from just below the line of the roof, at a spot approximately eighteen feet above the gravel driveway. Below the point of origin of the knocks were two open windows. Had anybody been out on the driveway with a ladder I would certainly have heard their movements on the gravel. In addition, to get a ladder to that point they would have activated the movement-sensitive lights. But it was dark beyond the windows. It would be next to impossible to stand on the sharply angled roof that covers the living room of the cabin. While the angle of the roof above the upstairs bedroom is almost flat, this roof is extremely steep. What's more, I would certainly have heard anybody crawling around on the roof. There would have been creaks and groans from the boards, and there is no question but that I would have noticed the sounds, given the profound silence of the country night. I am absolutely dead certain about the reality of the knocks. They were not made by the house settling. Nothing but an intentional act could have produced such loud, evenly spaced sounds. They were not a prank being played by neighbors. In the summer of 1986 I had not yet told my neighbors about the visitors. What's more, the prank explanation was hopelessly impractical. To reach the place from which I heard the knocks..." Page 131 cannot be put down to disease. Such a thing is not a symptom. My cats would not have reacted to something happening in my mind. I am reporting a true event. It was the first definite, physical indication I had while in a state of commpletely normal consciousness that the visitors were part of this world. They were responding to my attempts to develop the relationship and accept my fear by making their physical reality more plain. The stunning event of August 27, 1986, strengthened my wavering resolve to keep the matter where it belongs, which is in question. It is an awfully serious business, and it cannot be removed from question except as we learn more facts. Should we decide to believe something about this that is not true, we will ruin it for ourselves. We will form yet another mythology around the visitors, as I suspect we have been doing throughout our history. The moment after the nine knocks I thought to go outside. I also thought, You're not ready yet. You just go up to bed. The next morning I thought that was exactly what I had done. But there was something wrong. While the knocks were taking place I was unquestionably in a normal state of mind. As soon as I began to move from the chair, though, I feel that I may have entered another state. Unfortunately, I did not remember that something may have happened after the knocks until weeks later. On the morning after, my immediate thought was that I had failed miserably. The visitors had come, had knocked-and I'd just sat there, too scared even to open the door! I therefore don:t know whether I concocted the subsequent memories to make myself feel better, or if they were hidden by a more prosaic screen memory. One day I glanced at the clock on our videotape machine and suddenly remembered seeing it when it said 2:18 A.M. An instant later I recalled that I'd seen it reading that time as I went upstairs on the night of the nine knocks.

It had communicated a distinct sense of finality, and seemed by its lightness of tone not to be a part of the group. The nine knocks were a sort of communication. The tenth was punctuation..."

Daily Mail, Thursday, December 24, 2015 By Ben Wilkinson Page 124 Life-saving 999 call by girl of 3 after pregnant mother fell down stairs WHEN pregnant Catherine Bazzard fell downstairs and knocked herself out, she was lucky to have a cool-headed life-saver nearby-her three-year old daughter Emma. The youngster calmly told the emergency operator that Mrs Bazzard had a baby in her tummy and directed paramedics to her house. Yesterday, South Western Ambukance Service released the 11 minute transcript of her call as it gave her a bravery award. Emma found her mother slipping in and out of consciousness at the foot of the stairs after the 27-year old fell while rushing to get her son Harry, five from school. In the recording of the call on November 27, Emma tells the call handler: 'Mummy fell down a stairs and she has got a baby' After she was asked whether the baby is 'asleep' and how old it is. Emma reveals: It's in mummy's tummy. It's very very big. It's coming at Christmas.' Extracts of the call from Emma to 999 call handler Sara Morris: S:You are so clever to ring up E: Mummy said '999' and I did it. "Pre-school worker Mrs Bazzard said: 'I remember Emma bringing me the phone. She couldn't get the nine button to work so I pressed it." "...her mum spent three nights in hospital..." Mrs Bazzard who is married to Ben, 33, a teacher said that had Emma not responded so quickly her son George would have been born dangerously early ... "George was born healthy on December 4th four weeks early Ambulance call handler Sarah Morris said: 'I was amazed to discover that she was only three."
Daily Mail, Friday, June 24, 2016 ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS Compiled by Charles Legge Page 68 Tapping in to sabotage QUESTION When did the term 'phone tapping' appear in print? THE wire tap or phone tap gained its name because, historically, the monitoring took place via an actual electrical tap on the telephone line. The first direct evidence of wire tapping was recorded in the American Civil War (1861-1865). The connection of the West Coast of the United States to the East took place in 1861, opening the door to cross-country wire tapping. The advent of war gave both sides the opportunity to intercept messages and disrupt communications. The earliest written report of wire tapping appeared in September 1862, in the Smoky Hill And Republican Union newspaper published in Junction City, Kansas. According to this, Confederate Commander John Morgan and his ragtag force had destroyed bridges at Gallatin, Tennessee, cutting the railroad connection north, but 'not the telegraph; which indicated they have tapped the wires and are taking the Union dispatches from them'. Morgan's was regarded as one of the most effective cavalry units in the war. Among his men was George 'Lightning' Ellsworth, an expert telegrapher and wire-tapper. Ellsworth's ability to tap out false commands on the telegraph wires kept the Confederate cavalry a step ahead of the Federal soldiers and allowed Morgan and his men to retire to Tennessee almost unharmed. With the arrival of the telephone system, concerns about phone tapping and privacy appeared in a Toronto newspaper: 'Another serious defect in the telephone is the ease with which the wires can be tapped. `Hitherto no one but an experienced telegrapher could steal lightning, to tap a wire that is running under the Morse or Wheatstone code of signals requires knowledge of those signals and the possession of instruments. But the telephone is so easily managed that the understanding of it could be made the duty of every non- Wire tapping was a significant problem during World War I. Both sides laid down lengths of wire in their forward trenches to act as antennae, which could intercept enemy telegraph and telephone messages by induction through the soil. Some of these security problems were rectified by the introduction of the Fuller-phone, devised by Royal Engineer signals Captain and Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE) associate member Algernon Clement 'AC' Fuller (1885-1970). This was a portable Morse telegraph that transmitted a DC signal through a single wire, but incorporated what was, in effect, a method of scrambling messages to prevent enemy interception.

“THE WORLD IS BUILT UPON THE POWER OF NUMBERS” "Pythagoras, the old master philosopher and mathematician, who lived in the sixth century BC, propounded the theory that nothing in the universe could exist without numbers. He established a Mystery School in Italy when he was 52 years old. He was born in Greece and lived between 582 and 507 BC, much of his life spent in study and travel. His Mystery School taught esoteric knowledge, which included the secret of number and vibration." “The World is built upon the power of Numbers” ...Pythagoras – 6th century BC.

He discovered that there was a relationship between sound and numbers, and developed this discov-ery to form his metaphysical concept. He suggested that every planet was a certain distance from a central point in the universe and that if an invisible string connected each planet to the central point, when plucked the string would emit a certain tone or vibration. Each sound or vibration could be associated with a particular number. He also be-lieved that the sound or vibration of the universe dictated by the planets would have a strong influ-ence on the character of an individual born at that particu-lar time. / Page 7 / believed to be significant to numerology.

Pythagoras also believed that there was nine stages ... Numerology is the practice of attempting to use numbers derived from people’s names, date of birth, phone number, etc to determine that person’s personality and destiny. It bears many similarities to astrology, and some believe that the two are connected. Numerology is based on the belief that everything in the universe can be expressed by numbers, and many religions have at some point attempted to integrate numerology with their beliefs, claiming that numerology is a message encoded into the universe for them by their deity/deities. History of Numerology Numerology originated from ancient Babylonia, but modern Numerology contains elements from many cultures and teachings, including: Many ancient philosophers and mathematicians believed that as mathematical concepts were provable, unlike physical ones, numbers could be used to discern links between everything in creation, and predict the future. St. Augustine of Hippo (A.D. 354–430) wrote, “Numbers are the Universal language offered by the deity to humans as confirmation of the truth,” while Pythagoras once said that “The world is built on the power of numbers”. Pythagoras also believed that there was nine stages of the cycle of life, each of which was connected to a number from 1 to 9, and this was the source of all energy in the universe. During the early stages of Christianity dominance of Europe many attempted to find link biblical concepts to numerology, resulting in such ideas as the ‘Jesus Number’, and the ‘Number of the Beast’. This practice is still found in some Greek Orthodox churches. How Numerology Works Numerology involves turning your name, date of birth, and several other characteristics into a series of numbers between 1 and 9, which are then used to attempt to determine your personality, future, heart’s desire. Supposedly, numerology can even be used to determine what affect things like your house or phone number are having on your life, and how to overcome any problems they may be causing. First, you have to turn your name into a number. In numerology, every letter corresponds to a number from 1 to 9, as shown below: A = 1 B = 2 C = 3 D = 4 E = 5 F = 6
In Search Of The Miraculous Fragments of an Unknown Teaching P.D.Oupensky Page 96 9 x 6 = 54 " There exist not one, but three universal languages. The first of them can be spoken and written while remaining within the limits of ones' own language. The only difference is that when people speak in their ordinary language they do not understand one another but in this other language they do understand. In the second language, written language is the same for all peoples, like say figures or mathematical formulae; but people still speak their own language yet each of them understands the other even though the other speaks in an unknown language. The third language is the same for all both the written and the spoken. The difference of language disappears altogether on this level." Page 283 "In western systems of occultism there is a method known by the name of 'theosophical addition', that is, the definition of numbers consisting of two or more digits by the sum of those digits. To people who do not understand the symbolism of numbers this method of synthesizing numbers seems to be absolutely arbitrary and to lead nowhere. But for a man who understands the unity of everything existing and who has the key to this unity the method of theosophical addition has a profound meaning, for it resolves all diversity into the fundamental laws which govern it and which are expressed in the numbers 1 to 10. As was mentioned earlier in symbology, as represented , numbers are connected with definate geometrical figures and are mutually complimentary one to another. In the Cabala a symbology of letters is also used and in combination with the symbology of letters a symbology of words.A combination of the four methods of symbolism by numbers, geometrical figures, letters and words, give a complicated but more perfect method."
THE CITY OF REVELATION John Michell 1972 Gnostic Numbers Page 118 "Exactly how they came by their science of numbers is not certain, but they appear to have made the discovery that the numerical code of the Hebrew cabala and those of other mystical systems throughout the world were all degenerate versions of the same once universal system of knowledge that returns within the reach of human perception at certain intervals in time. As the revealed books of the Old Testament were written in a code to be interpreted by reference to number, so were the revelations of the gnostic prophets expressed in words and phrases formed on a system of proportion, which gave life and power to the Christian myth, while allowing initiates to gain a further understanding of the balance of forces that produce the world of phenomena." Page 121 / How it was ever supposed that the Hebrew alphabet of twenty-two letters, together with various geometrical symbols might serve to represent the entire moving pattern of the universe is not now easy to understand; but, since all ancient philosophy, religion, magic, the arts and sciences were based on the concept of a correspondence between numbers and cosmic law, it is impossible to appreciate the history of the past without some actual experience of the fundamental truth behind this approach to cosmology. Plato gives a remarkable account in Cratylos of the origin of language and letters. The philosopher is asked whether there is any particular significance in names, for surely they are simply a matter of convention and one is more or less as good as another. After all, foreigners call things by different names and appear to manage just as well as the Greeks in this respect. The answer given is that despite appearances the matter is by no means so simple. Words are the tools of expression, and the making of these, as of any other tools, is the task of a skilled craftsman, in this case the lawgiver. Language has grown corrupt over the ages, and names have deviated from their original perfect forms, which are those used by the gods. But all names were originally formed on certain principles, through knowledge of which it is possible to discover the archetypal meaning of words in current use. 'So perhaps the man who knows about names considers their value and is not confused if some letter is added, transposed or subtracted, or even if the force of the name is expressed in quite different letters.' This is Plato's clearest reference to the mystical science of the cabala, in which letters, words and whole phrases may be substituted for others of the same numerical value. The force of a name is to be found in its number, and can be expressed through any combination of letters, provided the sum of the letters amounts to the appropriate number by gematria.

Also highly significant is 2160 ( the number of years required for the equinoctial point to transit one zodiacal constellation), which is sometimes multiplied by 10 and by factors of ten (to give 216,000, 2,160,000, and so on) " and sometimes by 2 to give 4320, or 43,200, or 432,000, or 4,320,000, ad infinitum."

Fingerprints Of The Gods Graham Hancock 1995 Page 381 Chapter 41 "Conscious of being alone, this blessed and immortal being contrived to create two divine offspring, Shu, god of the air and dryness, and Tefnut the goddess of moisture: ' I thrust my phallus into my closed hand. Imade my seed to enter my hand. Ipoured it into my own mouth. I evacuated under the form of Shu, I passed water under the form of Tefnut.' 7 Despite such apparently inauspicious beginnings, Shu and Tefnut (who were always described as 'Twins' and frequently depicted as lions) grew to maturity, copulated and produced offspring of their own: Geb the god of the earth and Nut, the goddess of the sky. These two also mated, creating Osiris and Isis, Set and Nepthys, and so completed the Ennead, the full company of the Nine Gods of Heliopolis. Of the nine, Ra, Shu, Geb and Osiris were said to have ruled in Egypt as Kings, followed by Horus, and lastly - for 3226 years - by the Ibis-headed wisdom god Thoth.8" 3 x 2 x 2 x 6 = 72 In short it seems that secret knowledge is indeed available in the myth of Osiris and in the dimensions of the Great Pyramid. With this secret knowledge, if we wanted to fix a specific date - say 1008 years in the future - and communicate it to other initiates, then we could do so with the 'special number' 14 (72 x 14 = 1008). We would also have to specify the 'zero point' from which they were to make their calculations - i.e the present epoch - and this might be done with

It was a proper and a pregnant number, for there had been just seventy-two when red Set lured Usir into the chest. And these seventy-two in their turn had had good cosmic ground to be no more and no less than that number. For it is just that number of groups of five weeks which make up the three hundred and sixty days of the year, not counting the odd days, and there are just seventy-two days in the dry fifth of the year, when the gauge shows that the Nourisher has reached his lowest ebb, and the god sinks into his grave. So where there is conspiracy anywhere in the world it is requisite and customary for the number of conspirators to be seventy-two. And if the plot fail, the failure shows that if this number had not been adhered to it would have failed even worse." One this page 890, two and seventy occurs once. Seventy-two occurs four times.

Wade Baskin 1974 NUMEROLOGY "A survival of the ancient magical theory of names. Names are infinite in their diversity but all may be reduced to a finite set of numbers, usually from 1 to 9, occasionally with the addition of 11 and 22. Leonard Bosman, in The Meaning and Philosophy of Numbers (1932), stated: The power which the student may draw into himself when trying to realise the inner meaning of these great names and posers is sometimes so great as to cause a physical breakdown. The simplest way to find the number corresponding to a name is to turn each letter into a number. Two systems are used. The Hebrew system, which also relies on knowledge of the Greek alphabet, does not use the figure 9 and writes the letters under the other numbers:" "The modern system places the letters of the alphabet under the numbers 1-9." "Using either system, the digital root is obtained by adding the number equivalents for each letter of a person's full name and reducing the sum to one digit."
THE SORCERORS HANDBOOK Wade Baskin 1974 Page 429 Term designating a cult believed by some students of witch- / Page 430 / craft, mainly those inspired by the writings of Margaret Murray and her followers, to incorporate the essential tenets of a prehistoric religion. These students hold that the idea of a Supreme Being antedates the Old Testament and was fairly widespread. Traces of the Old Religion appear in the Vedas of India, in ancient Persian manuscripts, and in the earliest esoteric writings of the Egyptians. Thousands of years before Paul wrote that "In Him we live, and move, and have our being," the ancient adepts or Magi had taught the essential truths of all the great religions of the world. They taught that the physical world and the mental world existed in the continuum of one great mind, the eternal reconciler of all opposites, the source of all things at all levels, the ultimate and absolute repository of wisdom and knowledge. Man with his limited intelligence could never comprehend the incomprehensible. But knowledge of God was accessible to man through his perception of truth and spiritual values; God revealed himself as perfection, love, light, and beyond that, Mystery. The ancient belief was summed up in the formula carved on ruined temples: "I am all that is, all that was, all that will be, and no one shall lift my veil." "I am all that is, all that was, all that will be, and no one shall lift my veil." Page 156 "The rite or initiation follows a general pattern to which / Page 157 / each coven may add its own features. A nine-foot circle is outlined with a sacred black-handled knife. An altar placed in the center of the circle contains a knife symbolizing the air, a cauldron symbolizing water and the Great Mother, a wand symbolizing the phallus and fire, and the pentatle symbolizing the earth. Other instruments may include a sword, a burin, a white-handled knife for use in making talismans, and a cord symbolizing the unifying spirit that links all the elements together. The altar has on it lighted candles, incense burners, a vase filled with salt and water, and a whip symbolizing purification. The circle is consecrated, using ritual instruments, salt, and water. An incantation, repeated over and over, asks the an- cient gods of the four cardinal points to appear. During this part of the ceremony the postulant stands outside the circle.. The leader of the coven touches his chest with the point of the blackhandled knife and warns him that it is better to die by the knife than to enter the coven with fear in his heart. The postulant replies with the password "Per-fect love and perfect faith," enters the circle, and has his feet and hands ceremoniously bound with the cord. The leader presents him to the gods of the east, the south, the west, and the north, brings him back to the altar, forces him to kneel, grasps his feet firmly, and asks: "Are you prepared to swear to remain faithful to the Art forever?" When the postulant states that he is ready, the leader tells him that he must first be purified, and applies first three, then seven, then nine, and finally 21 lashes."

CAT WATCHING Desmond Morris 1986 Page 9 " The cat-goddess was called Bastet, meaning She-of-Bast. Bast was the city where the main cat temple was situated, and where each spring as many as half a million people converged for the sacred festival. About 100,000 mummified cats were buried at each of these festivals to honour the feline virgin- goddess (who was presumably a forerunner of the Virgin Mary). These Bastet festivals were said to be the most popular and best attended in the whole of ancient Egypt, a success perhaps not unconnected with the fact that they included wild orgiastic celebrations and 'ritual frenzies'. Indeed, the cult of the cat was so popular that it lasted for nearly 2,000 years. It was officially banned in AD 390, but by then it was already in serious decline. In its heyday, however, it reflected the immense esteem in which the cat was held in that ancient civilization, and the many beautiful bronze statues of cats that have survived bear testimony to the Egyptians' appreciation of its graceful form. Page 105 nine lives? The cat's resilience and toughness led to the idea that it had more than one life, but the reason for endowing it with nine lives, rather than any other number, has often puzzled people. The answer is simple enough. In ancient times nine was considered a particularly lucky number because it was a 'trinity of trinities' and therefore ideally suited for the 'lucky' cat."

HARMONIC 288 THE PULSE OF THE UNIVERSE Bruce Cathie1977 Page 35 All the work I had done to-date / Page 36 / indicated to me that the mathematicians of old had a knowledge of the universe which we are only once again beginning to understand. The final solution to this argument could be overcome only by the discovery of a geometric connection between the harmonics of light and the harmonics inherent in the division of a circle. As I had based my light values on minute of arc measure there must be some type of geometric arrangement which would tie them together." "This was always in the back of my mind during the reading of many research books and finally I came across something which I believe will answer the critics. The friend who came to my rescue was none other than Pythagoras himself, a man of great stature and forceful personality who lived in the sixth century BC. He travelled extensively to enlarge his mathematical knowledge and was said to have gained much information from the priests of Zoroaster, who had in their possession the mathematical lore of the Mesopotamians. He founded a semi-religious, or mystical, cult based on mathematics, round about 540 BC in the town-ship of Crotona, in southern Italy. He taught his disciples to worship numbers, the main idea being that number is the essence of all things, and is the metaphysical principle of rational order in the universe."

Sarcastically suggesting that his opponents seemed to think that 'phil-osophy is a book of fiction by some author, like The Iliad', he said that the book of the Universe: cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and to under-stand the alphabet in which it is composed It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles and other geometric figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it; without these, one wanders about in a dark labyrinth."

IN SEARCH OF THE MIRACULOUS Fragments of an Unknown Teaching P.D.Oupensky 1947 Page 304 "You must understand ", he said, " that every real religion, that is, one that has been created by learned people for a definite aim, consists of two parts. One part teaches what is to be done. This part becomes common knowledge and in the course of time is distorted and departs from the original. The other part teaches how to do what the first part teaches. This part is preserved in secret in special schools and with its help it is always possible to rectify what has been distorted in the first part or restore what has been forgotten." "Realizing the weakness and imperfection of ordinary language the people who have possessed objective knowledge have tried to express the idea of unity in "myths" "symbols" and in particular verbal formulas" which, having been transmitted without alteration, have carried on the idea from one school to another, often from one epoch to another." Page 279 "The aim of "myths" and "symbols" was to reach mans' higher centres, to transmit to him ideas inaccessible to the intellect and to transmit them in such forms as would exclude the possibility of false interpretation."

THE DEATH OF FOREVER A New Future for Human Consciousness Darryl Reanney (1995 Edition) Page 33 " The laws of physics have no inbuilt time asymmetery.They work just as well in the future-to-past sense as the past-to-future sense. We see this clearly when we look at the quantum wave .The wave is a ripple of possibility, not a real thing It has neither past nor future;it can be described as travelling forwards in time and backward in time with equal validity. This is true not just of the quantum wave. Subatomic particles exhibit the same disregard for time."
NUMBER 9 The Search for the Sigma Code Cecil Balmond 1998 Page 5 "One…two…three….My eye went over the figures. Suddenly I saw something. There were hidden patterns; the old man's story about secret num-bers came back to me and I became curious. I started to look into these simple ideas and the more I searched the more fascinated I became. Something was indeed going on underneath the surface of arithmetic and what appeared as a unique calculation to the outside / Page 6 / world was something quite different when viewed from below. Looked at another way, six and six was not necessarily twelve but something much more exciting - the number 3, of a secret code…" Page 5 "…The thing to do is to follow the path until all the clues are in place and let your mind run free. It is only then that you find what the young master saw: the fixed points in the wind." "…it is in this spirit I dedicate the journey to you. Follow the clues, build up the jigsaw piece by piece and make your own investigations; become part of the search. Go back in time and let the free spirit in you enter. Talk to it, play ask the strangest questions. Start to count again in the simplest of ways, one, two, three, four…up to nine.

Graham Hancock 1995 Page 189 1 x 8 x 9 = 72 " The Sun and the Moon and the way of the Dead Pyramid of the Sun, Teotihuacan, Having climbed more than 200 feet up a series of flights of stone stairs I reached the summit and looked towards the zenith. It was midday 19 May, and the sun was directly overhead, and the sun was directly overhead, as it would be again on 25 / Page 190 / July. On these two dates, and not by accident, the west face of the pyramid was oriented precisely to the position of the setting sun. 6 "A more curious but equally deliberate effect could be observed on the equinoxes. 20 March and 22 September. Then the passage of the sun's rays from south to north resulted at noon in the progressive obliteration of a perfectly straight shadow that ran along one of the lower stages of the western facade. The whole process, from complete shadow to complete illumination, took exactly 66.6 seconds. It had done so without fail, year - in year - out, ever since the pyramid had been built and would continue to do so until the giant edifice crumbled into dust. 7 What this meant of course, was that at least one of the many functions of the pyramid had been to serve as a 'perennial clock', precisely signalling the equinoxes and thus facilating calendar corrections as and when necessary for a people apparently obsessed, like the Maya, with the elapse and measuring of time. Another implication was that the master - builders of Teotihuacan must have possessed an enormouse body of astronomic and geodetic data and refferred to this data to set the Sun Pyramid at the precise orientation necessary to achieve the desired equinoctial effects."
John Michell 1972 Page 36 " St Augustine in The City of God also writes of the perfection of number 6, for 'in this did God make perfect all his works. Wherefore this number is not to be despised, but has the esteem apparently con-firmed by many places of scripture. Nor was it said in vain of God's works: "Thou madest all things in number, weight and measure." ' It is the unique property of number 6, on account of which it was held perfect, that it is both the sum and the product of all its factors excluding itself, for 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 and 1 x 2 x 3 = 6. 6 is the number of the cosmos, and the Greek word " "…sig-nifying the cosmic order, has the value by gematria of 600. The ancient astronomers adopted the mile as the unit which measures the cosmic intervals in terms of the number 6, and procured the following sacred numbers: Diameter of sun = 864,000 miles ( 12 x 12 x 6000 ) Diameter of moon = 2160 miles ( 6 x 6 x 60 ) Diameter of earth = 7920 miles ( 12 x 660 ) Mean circumference of earth = 24,883.2 miles (12 x 12 x 12 x 12 x 12) Speed of earth round sun = 66,600 miles per hour Distance between earth and moon = 6 x 60 x 660 miles or 60 x earth's radius" Zed Aliz Zed casts an oblique look, a squinting of the other eye bringing a re-focus. Diameter of sun = 864,000 miles 8 + 6 + 4 = 18 1 + 8 = 9 Diameter of moon = 2160 miles 2 + 1 + 6 = 9 Diameter of earth = 7920 miles 7 + 9 + 2 = 18 1 + 8 = 9 Mean circumference of earth = 24,883.2 miles 2 + 4 + 8 + 8 + 3 + 2 = 27 2 + 7 = 9 Speed of earth round sun = 66,600 miles per hour 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 1 + 8 = 9 Distance between earth and moon = 6 x 60 x 660 miles = 237600" 2 + 3 + 7 + 6 = 18 1 + 8 = 9

"There's nothing there," said Lissie, staring at the door. "Look," the lantern bearer rasped, with a black, hollow grin. "It's written on the door. A - M - A-" the bony finger moved across the plain wood of the door as the dry mouth spelled out letters - " Z - E - M - E - N - T. What does that say?" "I don't know," Lissie replied. "It says Amazement!" the ancient mouth roared, as the door burst open in another shower of earth. "IT SAYS AMAZEMENT!" The empty doorway seemed to do a cartwheel towards them. "It says Amazement!" came a third time, muffled now and echoing and mixed with the slamming sound of wood on wood on the "maze" sound.

EXTENDED SIMILIES Jenny Joseph 1997 Page 157 The thread But the thread was there, sometimes - he was losing it, losing his thought. Yes, that was the way the thread went, it came and went, elusive as thought - now it flashed into focus, now he had it, him sitting reading to his little girl - but he can't have had that book as a child, he hadn't had that sort of childhood. Thinking about the thread, the idea, myth of the thread was a good way to get you applying yourself, persisting, and he had, hadn't he, he'd gone on searching with his dog in the rubble long after the others had given up. So that thinking, which he'd thought he'd come to as a solid thing like chipping away shale and muck to get at a bit, of core, a thing like a lump of coal, usable, source of energy, so that it didn't matter what you thought, it was a rope ladder to get you across somewhere, get you through the mess, something you pretended, no, not pretended - made up? - to be doing to give a reason for going on. Made up. Ah perhaps something you made, engineered, he'd like it when they called him Monsieur l'lngenieur, ingenious. Not for a reason - you don't need a reason for going on, you need a road, a way, ah yes a means. A way of going. That was tautology. You could just say 'a way'. 'Tell Alice' (you think I don't know she's dead, he heard his crafty thought within his head and in the same flash behaved as if he didn't), 'keep her fingers on the golden thread.' If it's all a fancy, if there isn't something that's true, then there isn't untrue and you were back where you were. He was getting there, getting down that path and this time he would get there, he could still breathe he could still tell them even though they couldn't move the rock off him. If there isn't anything that's true, the opposite of true was false. But it couldn't be false because you can't have an opposite to some-thing that doesn't exist. Though what about negative numbers? Page168 Alice was cleverer than he was he should have asked her. But she could never explain things like he could but after all he'd been a teacher. So if no true, no false and nothing true means everything false. Yes, he'd got it. 'Useful,' he said. They bent low pretending they could hear to encourage him to speak some more. Useful. It was all useful. Alice's knitting had been useful. The thread and the rope ladder and the bridge were useful. Useful was much more useful than true. If he had realised that it was his son who was holding his hand he might have tried to speak in his type of hearty old reprobate he'd put on for years for young people and said something in character like 'Bugger the truth' because he knew they thought he thought truth was the pearl so he had it both ways. They would have been his next, last words but he kept his secret from them till the end because he had got beyond the division of time that living beings need in order to negotiate it, to a point where command question statement implying continuing into a future from the past were neither true, false or useful."
IN TUNE WITH THE INFINITE OR FULLNESS OF PEACE POWER AND PLENTY Ralph Waldo Emerson 1906 Preface "There is a golden thread that runs through every religion in the world. There is a golden thread that runs through the lives and the teachings of all the prophets, seers, sages, and saviours in the world's history, through the lives of all men and women of truly great and lasting power. All that they have ever done or attained to has been done. in full accordance with law. What one has done, all may do. This same golden thread must enter into the lives of all who today, in this busy work-a-day world of ours, would exchange impotence for power, weakness and suffering for abounding health and strength, pain and unrest for perfect peace, poverty of whatever nature for fullness and plenty. Each is building his own world. We both build from within and we attract from without. Thought is the force with which we build, for thoughts are forces. Like builds like and like attracts like. In the degree that thought is spiritualized does it become more subtle and powerful in its workings. This spiritualizing is in accordance with law and is within the power of all. Everything is first worked out in the unseen before it is manifested in the seen, in the ideal before it is realized in the real, in the spiritual before it shows forth in the materiaL The realm of the unseen is the realm of cause. The realm of the. seen is the realm of effect. The nature of effect is always determined and conditioned by the nature of its cause. To point out the great facts in connection with, and the great laws underlying the workings of the interior, spiritual, thought forces, to point them out so simply and so clearly that even a child can understand, is the author's aim. To point them out so simply and so clearly that all can grasp them, that an can take them and infuse them into every-day life, so as to mould it in all its details in accordance with what they would have it, is his purpose. That life can be thus moulded by them is not a matter of mere speculation or theory with him, but a matter of positive knowledge. There is a divine sequence running throughout the universe. Within and above and below the human will inces-santly works the Divine will. To come into harmony with it and thereby with all the higher laws and forces, to come then into league and to work in conjunction with them, in order that they can work in league and in conjunction with us. is to come into the chain of this wonderful sequence. This is the secret of all success. This is to come. into the possession of unknown riches, into the realization of undreamed - of powers." Brahma If the red slayer think he slays, Or if the slain think he is slain They know not well the subtle ways I keep and pass and turn again. Ralph Waldo Emerson

1 Wormwood in the Bible; 2 Interpretations of Revelation 8:11 ... A number of Bible scholars consider the term Wormwood to be a purely symbolic ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormwood_(star)
Wormwood (star) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Wormwood, αψινθιον (apsinthion) in Greek, is a star, or angel,[1] that appears in the Biblical New Testament Book of Revelation.
[edit] Wormwood in the Bible although the word Wormwood appears several times in the Old Testament, translated from the Hebrew term לענה (la'anah), e.g., Deuteronomy 29:18 and Jeremiah 9:15, its only clear reference as a named entity occurs in the New Testament book of Revelation: "And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter." (Revelation 8:10, 11 - KJB). Certain commentators have held that this "great star" represents one of several important figures in political or ecclesiastical history,[2] while other Bible dictionaries and commentaries view the term as a reference to a celestial being. A Dictionary of The Holy Bible states, "the star called Wormwood seems to denote a mighty prince, or power of the air, the instrument, in its fall, of sore judgments on large numbers of the wicked."[3] Scofield Reference Notes draws a link between the term in Revelation and Isaiah 14:12,[4] which reads, "How you have fallen from heaven,O Lucifer , son of the morning! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!" (King James Bible) KJB

The word used in the text is written phonetically, ba-ab-i-li, contrary to tradition, maybe to allow for the etymological explanation of the name as the ‘gate of the gods’.
