LIGHT AND LIFE Lars Olof Bjorn 1976 Page 197 "By writing the 26 letters of the alphabet in a certain order one may put down almost any message (this book 'is written with the same letters' as the Encyclopaedia Britannica and Winnie the Pooh, only the order of the letters differs). In the same way Nature is able to convey with her language how a cell and a whole organism is to be constructed and how it is to function. Nature has succeeded better than we humans; for the genetic code there is only one universal language which is the same in a man, a bean plant and a bacterium."

A HISTORY OF GOD Karen Armstrong The God of the Mystics Page 250 "(The Book of Creation). There is no attempt to describe the creative process realistically; the account is unashamedly symbolic and shows God creating the world by means of language as though he were writing a book. But language has been entirely transformed and the message of creation is no longer clear. Each letter of the Hebrew alphabet is given a numerical value; by combining the letters with the sacred numbers, rearranging them in endless configurations, the mystic weaned his mind away from the normal connotations of words."

FINGERPRINTS OF THE GODS A QUEST FOR THE BEGINNING AND THE END Graham Hancock 1995 Chapter 32 Speaking to the Unborn Page 285 "It is understandable that a huge range of myths from all over the ancient world should describe geological catastrophes in graphic detail. Mankind survived the horror of the last Ice Age, and the most plausible source for our enduring traditions of flooding and freezing, massive volcanism and devastating earthquakes is in the tumultuous upheavals unleashed during the great meltdown of 15,000 to 8000 BC. The final retreat of the ice sheets, and the consequent 300-400 foot rise in global sea levels, took place only a few thousand years before the beginning of the historical period. It is therefore not surprising that all our early civilizations should have retained vivid memories of the vast cataclysms that had terrified their forefathers. A message in the bottle of time" 'Of all the other stupendous inventions,' Galileo once remarked, what sublimity of mind must have been his who conceived how to communicate his most secret thoughts to any other person, though very distant either in time or place, speaking with those who are in the Indies, speaking to those who are not yet born, nor shall be this thousand or ten thousand years? And with no greater difficulty than the various arrangements of two dozen little signs on paper? Let this be the seal of all the admirable inventions of men.3 If the 'precessional message' identified by scholars like Santillana, von Dechend and Jane Sellers is indeed a deliberate attempt at communication by some lost civilization of antiquity, how come it wasn't just written down and left for us to find? Wouldn't that have been easier than encoding it in myths? Perhaps. "What one would look for, therefore, would be a universal language, the kind of language that would be comprehensible to any technologically advanced society in any epoch, even a thousand or ten thousand years into the future. Such languages are few and far between, but mathematics is one of them" "WRITTEN IN THE ETERNAL LANGUAGE OF MATHEMATICS"

NUMBER 9 THE SEARCH FOR THE SIGMA CODE Cecil Balmond 1998 Cycles and Patterns Page 165 Patterns "The essence of mathematics is to look for patterns. Our minds seem to be organised to search for relationships and sequences. We look for hidden orders. These intuitions seem to be more important than the facts themselves, for there is always the thrill at finding something, a pattern, it is a discovery - what was unknown is now revealed. Imagine looking up at the stars and finding the zodiac! Searching out patterns is a pure delight. Suddenly the counters fall into place and a connection is found, not necessarily a geometric one, but a relationship between numbers, pictures of the mind, that were not obvious before. There is that excitement of finding order in something that was otherwise hidden. And there is the knowledge that a huge unseen world lurks behind the facades we see of the numbers themselves."
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC January 2006 Page 28 GENOCIDE By Lewis M. Simons "In the Iraqi desert, crime-scene investigators are finding new forensic evidence of Saddam Hussein's murderous regime. Their discoveries echo the mass killings of the past century-the bloodiest in history-and offer hope that future mass murderers can be brought to trial. MORE THAN 50 MILLION people were systematically murdered in the past 100 yearsthe century of mass murder: From 1915 to 1923 Ottoman Turks slaughtered up to 1.5 million Armenians. In mid-century the Nazis liquidated six million Jews, three million Soviet paws, two million Poles, and 400,000 other "undesirables." Mao Zedong killed 30 million Chinese, and the Soviet government murdered 20 million of its own people. In the 1970s the communist Khmer Rouge killed 1.7 million of their fellow Cambodians. In the 1980s and early '90s Saddam Hussein's Baath Party killed 100,000 Kurds. Rwanda's Hutu-led military wiped out 800,000 members of the Tutsi minority in the 1990s. Now there is genocide in Sudan's Darfur region. Page 35 ".........man's inhumanity to man........."

FATHER FORGIVE THEM FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO
www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article. Saturday, April 28, 2007 (04-28) 14:31 PDT BAGHDAD, (AP) -- A car bomb exploded Saturday in the Shiite holy city of Karbala as the streets were packed with people heading for evening prayers, killing at least 58 and wounding scores near some of the country's most sacred shrines. Separately, the U.S. military announced the deaths of nine American troops, including three killed Saturday in a single roadside bombing outside Baghdad. With black smoke clogging the skies above Karbala, angry crowds hurled stones at police and later stormed the provincial governor's house, accusing authorities of failing to protect them from the unrelenting bombings usually blamed on Sunni insurgents. It was the second car bomb to strike the city's central area in two weeks. Near the blast site, survivors frantically searched for missing relatives. Iraqi television showed one man carrying the charred body of a small girl above his head as he ran down the street while ambulances rushed to retrieve the wounded and firefighters sprayed water at fires in the wreckage, leaving pools of bloody water. The Americans killed in Iraq included five who died in fighting Friday in Anbar province, three killed when a roadside bomb struck their patrol southeast of Baghdad and one killed in a separate roadside bombing south of the capital. The deaths raised to 99 the number of members of the U.S. military who have died this month and at least 3,346 who have died since the Iraq war started in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count
www.military.com/NewsContent 99 Killed So Far In April The first part of April has been the bloodiest period so far for U.S. troops in Iraq. There were 87 deaths by hostile fire in the first 15 days of this month, a number that had increased to at least 99 by yesterday. In the opening two weeks of the invasion last year, 82 Americans were killed in action.
www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story Blair rejects call for count of Iraqi deathsScale of killing obscured by refusal to collect data Rory McCarthy in Baghdad The GuardianGeneral Tommy Franks, the US commander in the Iraq war last year, spelled it out before the invasion began."We don't do body counts," he said, referring to the Iraqis that might be killed in the forthcoming conflict.His deputies were left to explain why a careful toll of American dead was kept but Iraqi deaths went unrecorded. "It just is not worth trying to characterise by numbers," Brigadier General Vince Brooks, the deputy director of operations at US central command, said just days before the fall of Baghdad. "And, frankly, if we are going to be honourable about our warfare, we are not out there trying to count up bodies. This is not the appropriate way for us to go." Occasionally the generals have not been able to resist. After the assault on Falluja last month commanders said at least 1,200 rebels were killed. It was a claim impossible to verify. Even now the city is cordoned off by US troops, the roads leading there are still extremely dangerous, and the Iraqi Red Crescent, the only aid agency operating inside the city, has had to pull out. When it has been possible to investigate the claims they have been difficult to verify. Last December the military said it had killed 54 insurgents in ambushes in Samarra, a town north of Baghdad. Hospital officials, however, put the toll at only eight or nine. There is a tempting propaganda value for US commanders to cite tolls of enemy dead - during the Vietnam War "success" was often measured in the number of Vietnamese killed, and those numbers were routinely inflated to mask the painful realities on the ground. But the Americans have a broader policy in Iraq, and over the past 20 months the military has made no effort to record the thousands of Iraqi civilians who have been killed. Yesterday Tony Blair rejected a call from more than 40 diplomats, peers, scientists and religious leaders who pressed for an independent inquiry for a civilian death toll. "Figures from the Iraqi ministry of health, which are a survey from the hospitals there, are in our view the most accurate survey there is," he told parliament. The health ministry has produced a figure of 3,853 civilians killed between April and October this year. But it is not clear whether those figures cover the entire country, how they were confirmed or what causes of death. No figures have been produced for the first year since the invasion. The task of trying to assess the civilian toll has been taken up by small groups working in a difficult and dangerous environment. With security in Iraq ever more fragile, and with nearly every western charity out of the country, it has become harder to keep an accurate record. Straight after the war the Guardian examined Baghdad hospital ledgers and had an insight into the difficulty of keeping accurate figures. One large hospital, al-Kindi, officially recorded 192 civilians killed between the invasion and the fall of the regime on April 9. The Yarmouk hospital had 99 civilian deaths before it closed on April 6. But even then staff were cautious, saying many civilians were buried without being taken to hospital and that some may have been fighters out of uniform. Associated Press surveyed hospitals and found 3,420 civilian deaths in the war. Another survey by the Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict, which checked each reported death against several sources, came up with just under 2,000. It was slow and often inaccurate work. Since then much of the recording has been done by Iraq Body Count, independent researchers based in Britain that use press reports and other publicsources to establish a death toll not only for last year's war but also the occupation that has followed. Last night their overall Iraqi civilian toll stood at between 14,619 and 16,804: the broad range is evidence in itself of how hard an accurate count is.

WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR
REVELATION C 21 V 1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
