121. Chomsky UD Review by US political dissident Noam Chomsky of the United States' own appalling record on human rights not in the distant past, but in the last 50 years and continuing right up to this day. http://www.zmag.org/chomsky/articles/9708-UD-relativity.html

The United States and the "Challenge of Relativity" By Noam Chomsky This essay will appear in a collection assembled by Tony Evans, dealing with the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of the Rights of Man. The adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on December 10, 1948 constituted a step forward in the slow progress towards protection of human rights. The overarching principle of the UD is universality. Its provisions have equal standing. There are no moral grounds for self-serving "relativism," which selects for convenience; still less for the particularly ugly form of relativism that converts the UD into a weapon to wield selectively against designated enemies. The 50th anniversary of the UD provides a welcome occasion for reflection on such matters, and for steps to advance the principles that have been endorsed, at least rhetorically, by the nations of the world. The chasm that separates words from actions requires no comment; the annual reports of the major human rights organizations provide more than ample testimony. And there is no shortage of impressive rhetoric. One would have to search far to find a place where leadership and intellectuals do not issue ringing endorsements of the principles and bitter condemnation of those who violate them notably excluding themselves and their associates and clients.

122. Usenet Articles By Mukesh Prasad (aka Bhanwara@my-deja.com) Alternate viewpoint on the Double Slit Experiment which is the experiment that started the moderen QM thought. http://www.mukesh.ws/

List of selected Usenet Articles by bhanwara Here is a list of some usenet articles on Physics (specifically QM SR GR and light ) by Mukesh Prasad (aka bhanwara@my-deja.com , and ) collected here so these discussions are not lost as they roll off the news-server archives. All articles here require open-minded, non-authoritarian thinking. Summary A mechanism is clarified whereby light can propagate in vacuum without requiring mystical properties. Quantum Mechanics interpretations are shown to be incorrect. The actual interpretation involves the fields generated by the electron sources. QM is still a valid line of research, but it is a lot less mystical and therefore potentially more useful than previously assumed. Special Relativity and constancy of light are demonstrated to be incorrect. Despite its mathematical complexity, General Relativity is shown to be trivial and useless in terms of its actual meaning, and slightly incorrect. Some of its incorrectness arises from the fact that it incorporates constancy and Special Relativity. It is also incorrect because of its attempt to use a symmetrical albeit elegant model for an underlying asymmetrical reality (which fact makes the elegance of the model or lack thereof, totally irrelevant. Appropriateness of the model is more important in mathematical models of physical reality, than elegance.)

123. Alignment Theory: New Quantum Relativity Theory Of Everything Preliminary look at a new approach to relativity, Cosmology and the Quantum nature of the universe. http://www.becomereal.com/quantum_relativity.htm

Quantum Relativity "Theory of Everything" Alignment Theory Abstract: (Fuller explanation below) Alignment Theory is the mechanism of zero point energy, quantum mechanics, relativity, mass and gravity, cosmology, cosmic inflation, dark energy and the cosmological constant, the nature and speed of light and quantum entanglement, quantum chaos and the lumpiness of the universe. This mechanism unifies relativity and quantum mechanics. The following is a preliminary look at a new, very simple approach to Relativity, Cosmology and the Quantum nature of the universe that explains the proposed mechanism. (This approach is based on a mixture of existing mainstream ideas and some new ones, put together in a new way. Relativity and Quantum theory describe the effects, Alignment theory is the actual mechanism.) There are three main elements that underlie this approach: 1. Gravity and Mass are the outcome of a two-polarity "Alignment" / "Anti-alignment" energy fluctuation Field. (Momentary alignments of quantum foam fluctuations, explained below.)

127. The Relativity Of Biblical Ethics Joe Edward Barnhard argues that the Bible itself exemplifies moral relativism. http://www.positiveatheism.org/writ/bibethics.htm#BIBETH

Clinton is not an adulterer by Larry Judkins Religion Page Editor Sacramento Valley Mirror Index: Atheism and Awareness (Editorials) Home to Positive Atheism I know, I know! After reading that headline, you think I'm a rabid Democrat who's in denial about President Clinton's extramarital affairs. Actually, long before Mr. Clinton's own admissions, I accepted as true the allegations of both Monica Lewinsky and Gennifer Flowers. I have also never doubted Paula Jones or Kathleen Willey. So how, then, can I maintain that President Clinton is not an adulterer? Simple. From a biblical perspective or at least an Old Testament perspective he has not committed adultery. Remember that in Old Testament times, polygamy and concubinage were perfectly acceptable institutions, and no "sin" or immorality was associated with them. Generally speaking, men could have as many women as they could acquire. A man was considered an adulterer only if he had sexual relations with another man's wife. If a married man had sex with an unmarried woman, he was not guilty of adultery. Thus, King David was an adulterer only because of his relationship with Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah the Hittite. His many other legally acquired wives and concubines did not make him guilty of adultery.

128. 4C - The Relativity Of Ones Perception Essay by Lourens Hupkes. http://www.4c.com.br/h_hupkes_i.htm

The relativity of ones perception In Judaism it is told that to hear is standing in opposite of the other senses and that hearing is the quintessence. One explains further that the hearing is not only the hearing of the spoken word, but hearing in all ways. That is why one says: Salomo understands the language of the animals as well as the language of the plants. This does not mean that he understands the crowing of the cock, but he is able to hear something that maybe not at all in this way is expressed. The profets for instance do hear a voice also. And here one says about: this does not necessarily go together with sound in the way of our speech. They can hear that voice without any sound! If that very voice is heard, then it is hocus-pocus and that should be ignored. That voice is heard in another way. The Jiddish language expresses this in a special way. Jiddish is a kind of dialect from middle-age German which was spoken by the Jews who were expelled from Germany or fleeing at the time of the 'Black Death'(1300). They were admitted 'en masse' in then at that time Kingdom Poland and they took the middle-age German with them and this language has itself maintained there in the Jewish society. It has assimilated in the course of time some Slav and Hebrew words. In that Jiddish there is a difference between 'herren' of the German 'hoeren' that is hearing of a sound, and 'der herren' that signifies hearing in an other way. This word is used when for instance someone is telling that he has made the voyage through the 'Hechalos', that is the palaces (in modern terms one could say a voyage in meditation). One has left this world here and one has entered the palaces of the other realm.

132. The Relativity Of Space, Henri Poincare Full text of Poincare's 1897 popular explanation of his conception of space. http://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/philosophy/works/fr/poincare.htm

The Relativity of Space Source The Relativity of Space from (1897). The complete article reproduced here. I. IT is impossible to picture empty space. All our efforts to imagine pure space from which the changing images of material objects are excluded can only result in a representation in which highly-coloured surfaces, for instance, are replaced by lines of slight colouration, and if we continued in this direction to the end, everything would disappear and end in nothing. Hence arises the irreducible relativity of space. Whoever speaks of absolute space uses a word devoid of meaning. This is a truth that has been long proclaimed by all who have reflected on the question, but one which we are too often inclined to forget. If I am at a definite point in Paris, at the Place du Panthéon, for instance, and I say, "I will come back here tomorrow;" if I am asked, "Do you mean that you will come back to the same point in space?" I should be tempted to answer yes. Yet I should be wrong, since between now and tomorrow the earth will have moved, carrying with it the Place du Panthéon, which will have travelled more than a million miles. And if I wished to speak more accurately, I should gain nothing, since this million of miles has been covered by our globe in its motion in relation to the sun, and the sun in its turn moves in relation to the Milky Way, and the Milky Way itself is no doubt in motion without our being able to recognise its velocity. So that we are, and shall always be, completely ignorant how far the Place du Panthéon moves in a day. In fact, what I meant to say was

It's in the stars One of the most challenging problems in modern physics is the application of quantum theory to the universe as a whole. Progress in this area has been plagued by two types of problem: conceptual and technical. The conceptual problems arise from the old difficulties of interpreting quantum theory. The standard interpretations require that the measuring instruments and observers are outside the quantum system described by the wavefunction. In the late 1950s, however, Hugh Everett proposed an interpretation of quantum theory that might apply to systems that include the observers and measuring instruments, but the adequacy of such interpretations has remained controversial to this day. The technical problems are no less severe or fundamental. Ever since the pioneering work of Bryce DeWitt, Charles Misner and others in the 1960s, quantum cosmology has basically been studied by applying quantum theory to simple models of the universe. These models typically assume that the universe is completely homogeneous. As a result they only have a few degrees of freedom - the radius of the universe and the value of one or more matter fields. One then makes a quantum-cosmological model by quantizing these simple descriptions of the universe.

137. The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis An assessment of linguistic determinism and linguistic relativity. With reference to the legacies of Wilhelm von Humboldt and Sigmund Freud. http://venus.va.com.au/suggestion/sapir.html

The Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis 'He gave man speech, and speech created thought, Which is the measure of the universe' - Prometheus Unbound, Shelley The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis as we know it today can be broken down into two basic principles: linguistic determinism and linguistic relativity Linguistic Determinism: A Definition Linguistic Determinism refers to the idea that the language we use to some extent determines the way in which we view and think about the world around us. The concept has generally been divided into two separate groups - 'strong' determinism and 'weak' determinism. Strong determinism is the extreme version of the theory, stating that language actually determines thought, that language and thought are identical. Although this version of the theory would attract few followers today - since it has strong evidence against it, including the possibility of translation between languages - we will see that in the past this has not always been the case. Weak determinism, however, holds that thought is merely affected by or influenced by our language, whatever that language may be. This version of determinism is widely accepted today.

Conference Home Scientific Program Schedule of Talks Students ... MCTP Inaugural Conference of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics May 21-25, 2001 University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Two theories revolutionized the 20th century view of space and time: Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. Their union has spawned elementary particle theories with extra spacetime dimensions, the inflationary model of big-bang cosmology, dark matter in the universe, radiation from quantum black holes and the fuzzy spacetime geometry of superstrings and M-theory. These developments, derived from the 19th century mathematics of Riemannian geometry and Lie groups, have in their turn inspired new directions in the pure mathematics of topology and knot theory. In view of the mission of the Michigan Center for Theoretical Physics to provide a venue for interdisciplinary studies in the mathematical sciences, this Inaugural Conference will bring together Astronomers, Cosmologists, Particle Physicists and Mathematicians to share their different perspectives on the 21st century view of spacetime.
