This is what scientists expect from reverse-directional shifting of Earth s Inner Core. &nbsp; If the Core reverses direction, this will cause drastic climate changes that will displace tradewind, ocean current, and plate tetonic origination, resulting in agricultural imbalance from orographic lift reversal, depletion of nutrients from fresh upwelling, and the return of Austrilia to India as the Atlantic becomes the new Ring of Fire for earthquakes caused by volcanic thrust.<BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <!-- Hide For Now --!> Simply put, we know in the geological record exists evidence of magnatism in the rocks shifting direction - due to magnetic pole reversal. &nbsp; That can only have occured if the inner core reversed direction. &nbsp; My hypothesis is that the implications of a core reversal would be devastating: the Earth would reverse its direction of rotation causing sunlight radiation, tradewinds, ocean currents, and storm patterns to change direction and intensity. &nbsp; Lack of oxygen would kill any fish caught unaware in the new currents, not to mention every place that is fertile would become desert within a year&rsquo;s time due to the new wind and sunlight direction, causing instant worldwide economic collapse. &nbsp; This explains why  Adam (Erectus) left the presumed  Garden Spot of the African continent - . &nbsp; This calamity may happen again in the next 50 years due to the Earth s isostatic balance quickly becoming less able to resist global warming. &nbsp; The ability for the Earth to resist is being stifled both above and beneath! &nbsp; We are not merely filling the atmosphere with greenhouse gases, but we are extracting Earth&rsquo;s lubricant - oil.<BR><BR> <!-- There's Always More --!> </DIV><A HREF="http://www.StephenRush.com/MoreGod.html"> <DIV Align=Center><Font Color="#DD5522">More&nbsp;<FONT size=4>’!</FONT></FONT></A></DIV> <!-- Bird In The Hand --> <BR><B> Bird that Got Away Well Scene Narrative:</B><BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The Paleolithic cave art in Lascaux, France contains a room near a well that appears to describe the event of a man s death associated with 3 animals along side various lines and dots. &nbsp; There is a bison on the right, a man and a bird in the center, and a rhinoceros on the left. &nbsp; These figures and the lines that accompany them are somewhat both arranged and scattered, with little shading and color in a highly two-dimensional perspective, but definitely a narrative. <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Many have long sought after a story line to accompany this  Well Scene , as it is formally named, but use of space and material is quite simple and doesn t help to interpret what is seen. &nbsp; The author s thought is conveyed by use of the positions of tectiforms (lines and dots) as a pre-language method of showing relationship of the animals to the man. &nbsp; Half-arrows stick through the bison s disemboweled stomach and point at its feet. &nbsp; Marking away from the bison s feet is another half-arrow running along the underside of the bison and pointing to the feet of the man and a bird. &nbsp; These half-arrows cannot represent spears, for the same line that points at the feet of the man also contains a full-arrow also pointing back at a perpendicular angle to the first half-arrow at the bison s stomach. &nbsp; The fact that the full-arrow does not conform to any known representation of a spear is noted as a highly unlikely interpretation and is key to understanding the narrative as a whole. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Consider this, for a spear to exist as drawn in the representation of the full-arrow, the spear would have to be double-sided with a double-point on one side, in addition to having another spear already struck inside the bison. &nbsp; It also doesn t make sense for a bird to be skewered on the wrong side of a pole. &nbsp; What is more believable is the representation of directional markers not spears, since the full-arrow in this case appears to denote a return direction. &nbsp; Lines representing directional steps would account for the displacement of the man and lend to explaining <BR><DIV Align=Center><IMG src="c:\http/www.StephenRush.com/Images/WellScene.gif" align=center border=1></DIV> what took place.<BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; In the first part of the scene, from right to left, it is widely accepted the man struck the bison with a spear. &nbsp; After stepping over the buffalo, the man notices a bird and begins to chase it unsuccessfully because he wasn t swift enough. &nbsp; While returning for the meat of the bison s carcass, another event takes place. <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Now, although the detail of the stick-figured man is not as skilled as the shapely form of the animals shown, it is noticeable this is definitely a man since there is an obvious penile protrusion at the base of the torso. &nbsp; The man s arms are laid out and his whole body is tilted back, but logically could not have been wounded from the bird nor the bison. &nbsp; The rhino on the left has 6 red drops of blood beneath its tail, while facing away from the man. &nbsp; The fact the droplets are in two rows of three may indicate having charged at the man twice with three thrusts of its horn each time. &nbsp; It does not stand to reason that the rhino charged three times and impaled the man twice since that would mean extra effort on the part of the rhino to run and attack again after already having successfully struck its victim. &nbsp; It makes more sense that the man tried to get up after the first rampage and was summarily bludgeoned to death immediately following. <BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; So the story is about a hunter who slays a bison, he notices a bird while getting his spear out, tries to unsuccessfully capture this bird with his bare hands, then returns to the buffalo to retrieve his spear, and is felled by a rhinoceros who charges at him twice and impales him 3 times each attack. &nbsp; Due to the remoteness of the deep shaft and difficulty for the artist to reach the site, the intention could only have been for remembrance and posterity of the individual that was slain, possibly for future explorers.<BR><BR> <IMG src="Http://www.StephenRush.com/Images/Spacer.jpg" Align=Right border=0 width=400 height=1> <!-- There's Always More --!> </DIV><A HREF="http://www.StephenRush.com/More .html"> <DIV Align=Center><Font Color="#DD5522">More &nbsp;<FONT size=4>’!</FONT></FONT></A><BR><BR> <DIV Align=Center><IMG Src="http://www.StephenRush.com/Images/Cvr House.jpg" Align=Center border=0 width=192></DIV> --> </TD> <!-- Side Pocket --> <TD background="http://www.StephenRush.com/Images/Denim.jpg" vAlign=top align=middle borderColor=#ffffff width=180> <Div Align=Center><STRONG><FONT Color=#000000><FONT face=Arial size=4>Observation Is Key To Discovery</FONT></STRONG><BR> <FONT size=2> <B>Do Not Shoot The Messenger</B><BR><BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; When Wagner observed how the edge of South America fit snugly into Africa&rsquo;s coastline, he was laughed at by the scientific community for one reason: he did not have a mechanism to support his claim. &nbsp; All of the science of the day could not support the notion of Plate Tetonics, and Wagner spent his last dying breath trying to find proof of this phenomenon in Greenland and never saw the fruit of his labor while he was alive. &nbsp; Modern science has not really changed much from the time of Galileo, when we still condemn those of different ideologies as heretics. <BR><BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; An observation cannot be rightly condemned as right or wrong because it is only a key to discovery, for it is the responsibility of further research to disprove the reaction based on facts. &nbsp; Observation differs from Research, in as much as subjectivity differs from objectivity. &nbsp; The effect of the initial observation can be steeped in philosophy that skews the outcome whereas research results are simply facts. &nbsp; An observation can and should be disproved on a philosophical level first, personally deemed the Scholarly Scientific Method, before attempting to attach factual-based research to its disanalogous and faulty-opinion counterpart. <BR><BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; The best example of mixing philosophy & facts is a belief that the intelligence of humans is superior to that of animals, skewing what direction science attempts to prove the existence of Evolution. &nbsp; To explain further, a philosophy of merely comparing similarities of intelligence is imbalanced, so research on Evolution should also include differences, such as conscience verses instinct. &nbsp; A premise like Adaptation should become accepted by the scientific community and just as widely proclamated as Evolution, because they are relatively viable suppositions. &nbsp; Therefore, leadership in government needs to instill better appreciation for the sciences by separating Observation from Research / Application into two schools of thought within the Arts and Sciences, and create the existence of an Open-participation Journal of Observation. <BR><BR> &nbsp; &nbsp; Now, these observations here do not offer absolute proof, neither should they. &nbsp;They exist to provoke thought and further research. <!-- End Table Setting --> </FONT></FONT> <IMG Src="http://www.StephenRush.com/Images/LibertyB.JPG" Align=Center border=0 width=192> </TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE> <!-- About This Vision --> <Span Style="Font: 1pt Palace Script MT;
