Yours is the sign of dreams, imagination, poetry, and matters of the spirit. Ruled by mysterious Neptune, the planet of glamour and illusion, your challenge is to find a way to live in a workaday world when you have an out-of-this-world sensibility. [Pg.85]

And knowledge of nastiness helps to show us the way out of this world, where the good is corrupted and disfigured. We... [Pg.560]

But when he let go of the part my hand almost fell to the floor. It was like someone had switched on an extra gravity field. This thing was not like a rock or a piece of steel or even a piece of lead. It was out of this world heavy. My visceral reaction was. This thing is alien. I can only surmise the look on my face. [Pg.281]

If 10% of energy needs were met by wind power, there would be about 10 billion tons less of worldwide carbon emissions out of a world total of 60 to 70 billion tons. To achieve this, 120 times more wind capacity is needed. [Pg.211]

The first extreme was that cloud or darkness whereof we have spoken formerly. Some call it the remote matter and the invisible chaos, but very improperly, for it is not invisible. This is the Jewish Ain-Soph outwardly, and it is the same with that Orphic night O Night, thou black nurse of the golden stars. Out of this darkness all things that are in this world came, as out of their fountain or matrix.3... [Pg.119]

Of all the odd myths that have arisen in the scientific world, the Caucasian mystery invented quite innocently by Blumenbach is the oddest., A Georgian woman s skull was the handsomest in his collection. Hence it became his model exemplar of human skulls, from which all others might be regarded as deviations and out of this, by some strange intellectual hocus-pocus, grew up the notion that the Caucasian man is the prototypic Adamic man. [Pg.10]

Straight out of his world and upwards into the third dimension likewise, he cannot perceive anything but a sheet of water lacking any thickness. Evidently, it is not the water itself which he sees, for this water constitutes three-dimensional matter rather what he perceives is only the manifestation of the water fall in his two-dimensional world. This sheet only appears to him to widen and to extend itself, and this is because he cannot actually see its real source, the colonne d eau tombant upon the plane. [Pg.341]

However, it was only after much controversy that the latter was occupied eight years later. Out of this conflict with Althoff grew mutual respect and friendship. The Institute was magnificently designed for the standards of that time. It was destroyed during World War II, but was rebuilt essentially in its original form and the design of the Institute is, today, still a practical one. [Pg.4]

The apocalyptic mentality lives with unbelievable intensity in the continuous present, burning himself out in order to produce a break-through into eternity he wants his revolution and he wants it now. His desire is for a communion with the entire world, an undifferentiated sense of merging that allows for no distinctions out of this mode arises the psychopath. His ideal is an anarchic chaos that would be hell on earth. Norman O. Brown s Love s Body describes this mode, and figures like Dylan Thomas, Charlie Parker, and Richard Farina embody it. [Pg.444]

As the world s population continues to grow, the demand for fresh water will certainly increase. Seventy five percent of the Earth s surface is covered with water. Out of this 75%, almost 97% of the world s water is salty and not readily drinkable. The other 2% is locked as solids, in the form of ice caps and glaciers, leaving us with about 1% of freshwater that is available for all humanity s need. This small amount of freshwater can be found in the form of surface water and groundwater. Of the 1% of freshwater available, 96% is in the form of groundwater. From 1940 to 1990, withdrawals of fresh water from rivers, lakes, reservoirs, and other sources have been augmented fourfold [28]. [Pg.66]

And so it came about that a mere boy filled the chair of two illustrious predecessors, and under his leadership the Cavendish Laboratory became the dominant center of scientific research in the world. In the lightning flash which splits the heavens Thomson saw a force in which lay the key to the mystery of the material world. He chose as his field of research the realm of electricity. A year before he entered Cambridge, Thomson had heard of a peculiar glass tube or globe constructed by his countryman, William Crookes. By means of a vacuum pump, Crookes drew almost all of the air out of this tube so that only an infinitesimal fraction of the original molecules of air remained in his sealed glass container. With... [Pg.173]
