Significant rioting occurred at HMP Birmingham (England) on Friday 16th December 2016. The Prison Officers Association has described the disturbance as the worst since the Strangeways Riots of April 1990.

 

The Strangeways Riots had started the day before the Bishops Castle Earthquake, one of the highest magnitude earthquakes of the 20th Century.

 

The purpose of this post is that I wish to go on record as stating that there is a significant possibility of an Earthquake beneath the land area of England and Wales within 14 days after the HMP Birmingham Rioting. To be absolutely clear, this predicted Earthquake has a reasonable probability of exhibiting a Magnitude greater than 2.5M_L , will occur within the land area of England and Wales and more likely than not will strike before 30th December 2016.

For the record I find your hypothesis highly unlikely, but I do applaud your readiness to make a public prediction.

and maybe some of the more intelligent people will read my experience and check their blood iron before going to a neurologist.. . . .

I am not in the business of protecting intelligent people. It's the dumbshits I'm trying to look after.

I am pleased things have worked out for you. However, I return to the point raised early in this thread by another member. Sudden sensitivity to smells can be a symptom of a serious neurological condition.

Not all readers of this thread will have your ability to distinguish between medical advice and anecdote. There is a risk that some will decide their problem, based on your experience, is simply mild anemia and avoid seeking the medical help they urgently require.

I regret coming across as a curmudgeonly, pedantic nay-sayer, but that's only because I am.

Feed back from people who experienced the same symptoms and have since found solutions and have opinions on the subject is what i was hoping for. Not medical advice, is that not what this forum is about???

Anecdotal opinions in science and medicine are inherently flawed. In medicine, in particular, they are downright dangerous. Consider the following:

1. You do not know if the individuals are speaking the truth.

2. You do not know if the individuals have properly understood there experience.

3. You do not know if the individuals have accurately reported there experience.

Given that they will not have been medically trained there is little reason to expect that they have properly understood, or accurately reported their experience. It is by applying that kind of anecdotal experience that we have seen develop the nonsense surrounding vaccinations.

To address your final question. This sub-forum is to discuss scientific development in the fields of anatomy, physiology and neuroscience, and to ask and answer general questions about these subject areas.

Even though I have had no feed back on here which I was hoping ,.....

The only feedback you should seek, the only feedback you should receive, the only feedback you should pay attention to, is the feedback that says "If you have a medical issue, seek medical help. Do not look for advice on the internet."

I am pleased to see you have done this. It is the only sensible approach. It is the only intelligent approach.

Are you aware that the ancient Tibetan religion claims that humans are descended from monkeys?

Interesting, but in what way relevant? I strongly suspect there are many claims with "the Ancient Tibetan religion" for which there is no evidence, or contrary evidence.

I have no idea what cladking is waffling about. He seems to think there is "sand in the horizontal passage". Moreover, he seems to think this sand came from somewhere other than the immediate vicinity.

Questions to cladking:

1. What are you referring to when you speak of the "horizontal passage"? You are aware, are you not, the while there are similarities of internal geometry in the pyramids, each is unique.

2. Please provide a proper citation for the presence of sand in this passage.

3. Please provide a proper citation in support of your claim that it comes from a distance.

Back to studiot: cladking is correct that the the greater part of the pyramids at Giza are made of limestone. Elsewhere one or two made of sandstone, and many of mudbrick. Limestone is also commonplace. I don't have the statistics to hand on how many of each type of building material there are. The controlling factor appears to have been which stones of suitable quality were closest to hand. There was also a matter of cost and expediency. I think the later Middle Kingdom pyramids were mainly mudbrick with limestone facings. Of course, many of the mudbrick examples are no more than sad little mounds now.

Since cladking seems to have focused on the pyramids on the Giza plateau, I do not know why he mentions basalt. (I can't find where it is mentioned in this thread.) I am not aware of any basalt in the Great Pyramid. Certainly I have never seen any when I have been inside, though that's hardly to be relied upon. Basalt was used to a limited extent, I think, in a handful of other pyramids and almost certainly in the ancillary temples at the Giza site.

The interior of the Grand Gallery is lined with granite.

 

I'll assume you're talking to me even though most of what I've posted so far is obvious evidence.

 

You have posted almost no evidence. You have posted assertions, claims, opinions, (mis)interpretations, accusations, objections and the like. But precious little evidence. I shall not be wasting any more time on your unsupported delusions.

And what is your evidence for this claim?

Keep in mind the following:

Evidence is not a belief.
Evidence is not a desire.
Evidence is not an opinion.

Evidence is not a suspicion.
Evidence is not writings of undemonstrated provenance.
Evidence is not a passionately declared statement.

Evidence is not an idea.

Evidence is not a majority opinion.

Evidence is not a minority opinion.
Evidence is measurable, repeatable observation consistent with a hypothesis

So what is the evidence for your assertions?

 

Perhaps it would be a learning experience for me if you attacked the evidence or logic.

 

A negative rep is just a new kind of irrelevancy to the argument.

 

If something is "unscientific" then why not say in what way it's unscientific?

I did. You ignored it, other than responding with further unscientific statements and unsupported statements. I only apply neg. rep. for consistent failure to provide support for assertions, or for self delusion, or for cherry picking, or for failing to directly address objections, or for being rude. You have not been rude.

 

Done, that will be one beer

 

Couldn't manage the beer, but I hope the +rep compensates.

Oops. I intended to give cladking a neg. rep, but inadvertently applied it to Mootanman's post that contained the target post of cladking. Would someone please reverse that with a positive rep on post #23 please. Sorry about that Moontanman.

Somewhere along the line people came to believe the conjectures of archaeologists.

An interpretation of reaction to archaeological theory that is simultaneously snide and irrelevant.

Probably this was caused by the fact that everyone calls themselves a "scientist" and we all know that experiment can't be done in the historical contexts.

More snide irrelevancy. It seems to be your speciality.

Experiments are routinely done in historical contexts. Either you are lying, or ignorant. In either case it wholly devalues your opinions in these matters.

Since experiment isn't possible then some won't even do simple testing.

As noted, of course experiment is possible. And why should every archaeologist conduct testing, if the relevant testing has already been conducted by others?

You might be surprised to learn that the concept ramps must have been used to build the Great Pyramid has been disproven

I would not be surprised. I would be amazed. Please provide appropriate citations to support your claim. Include citations that refute the points made by Strange about the evidence for ramp use. Alternatively, and preferably, admit you are wrong.

It appears they used water filled counterweights and funiculars on the causeways instead. There is extensive physical evidence and, I believe, there is extensive cultural and historical evidence to support it.

Provide the citations to justify this claim.

So far in 150 years Egyptology has failed to identify any of the symbols of the ancient Egyptians from the simplest to the most complex. Almost no writing of any sort exists and they don't understand it. They have been scrambling for a couple years since ramps were debunked to try to reestablish the concept but so far the efforts are amusing at best.

More snide ignorance. I am at a loss as to why your nonsense is tolerated.

One of the ancient concepts was the ben ben stone which sat on the primeval mound. Despite the fact that not only the chemical composition of this can easily be deduced but I can point them to one that exists now. It exists and is growing in the Sphinx Temple below the Great Pyramid today;

Huh?

the chromosome may match but that won't make human chimp and gorilla equal. how to explain the difference?

Who said this would make humans, chimps and gorillas equal? No one.

What does equal even mean? If you mean identical, that would be wrong, since they are not identical either in appearance, behaviour, or genome. They are, however, very similar - in appearance, behaviour and genome.

The difference is explained by Darwin's concept of Natural Selection and the development of that concept in a century and a half of sound observation.

I just asked a small group if they could do this. All agreed they could and were surprised it was even questioned. It is perhaps worth noting that they consisted of two Brazillians, one Chinese, one Saudi, one Kuwaiti, one Englishman and a Scot, so the ability appears to be cross cultural - not a surprise.

 

Right, this is about changing the focus of your vision and yes there is not known benefits out of this, however, I do believe that just like any other muscle if is exercised, it would be stronger and react better.

In that case I would be astounded if there was anyone on the planet who was unable to do this, excepting individuals with some genetic deficiency, or who had suffered some trauma. At the risk of sounding patronising, which is not my intent, this is rather like saying "did you know that if you tilt your head way back when you are outside and keep your eyes open then you can see the sky".

Now you say you have discussed this with others, many of whom have said they cannot do it. Note that I was unsure what you meant by blurry vision. Would you try asking those same people if they can defocus their eyes and let us know what the result is then?

Are you simply talking about defocusing the eyes, or something else? If defocusing I would have thought anyone could do that, but as noted earlier, there is no incentive to try.

The pole shift is based on sound science

No one is denying that polarity reversals occur. We are challenging your apparent assertion that these are associated with major disaster; that they occur rapidly and that they can presently be predicted to within a day (or even a century). What makes you adopt these strange beliefs? what have you found convincing in this fringe material that causes you to reject sound science?

Trash can please. Inventive and creative nonsense would have the benefit of being entertaining. This is as entertaining as a painting the toe nails of a dead hippo.

Based upon the date of the OP and of the last post it would appear that even the outline planning for such a project takes in excess of four years.

Seems to me that adding deliberate misspellings to your code is a great way to slow down people trying to crack it.

I understand that is a common practice along with odd grammar that is still intelligible.

Pure limestone is pure calcium carbonate. A limestone quarry is likely to have limestone with a very high level of purity. Go for one that is crystaline with a low fossil content. What level of purity do you need?

Go to a limestone quarry.

Excellent compilation Medelejev. I feel guilty I have nothing to add.

Ezines and the majority of blogs have become tiresome in my opinion.

First, welcome.

Second, become, or always were?
