According to researchers, a man will gaze at a woman’s lips before gravitating elsewhere over the landscape of her body. (yes, including her chest).
Lips are our body’s most exposed erogenous zone. They are packed with more than a million different nerve endings, making them one of the most sensitive parts of our body.
They are considered a sensually seductive part of our body, and highlighting them in rich glittering colors adds to their alluring qualities.
These Stunner Originals Fantastic Lips exemplify this biological phenomenon. Their sophisticated satin luminous quality draws such beautiful attention to your lips, making them irresistibly kissable. This Fantastic Collection also gives you 25 different deep shades to choose from.
For my eyeshadow, I wanted a sexy and dramatic look. That said, I selected the M&T Garage Giada EvoX eyeshadow in metallic blue with winged eyeliner. This Giada collection comes in 6 gorgeous color options.
Wearing this blue hue brings out my eyes correctly and makes them pop. I adjusted the eyeshadow color density to 60% for a demurer appearance.
Both the Stunner Originals Fantastic Lips and the M&T Garage Giada Eyeshadow are exclusively available at Swank’s "Wild Spring Event" for March 2023.

I've seen lots of these Tree Swallows in the past but they were always moving too fast for me to get a decent shot. Yesterday I saw a few at the Patuxent National Wildlife Refuge and this one was accommodating (thankfully).
This planet seems good. One species seem to be so populous they have infiltrated every continent. They do have some rudimentary language skills but their mathematic ability is so basic they would never be considered an intelligent species. Atmosphere is very similar to ours with minimal terra and bioforming needed making it cheap to colonize.
The fingers quickly tapped the device sending a communication to corporate headquarters that they could apply to the commission to colonize earth with a high degree of probability of being approved.
Within a decade the ships started arriving. Humans objected to being colonized and threw every nuclear weapon they could scrap up. The colonizers retreated back to orbit, baffled by a species intelligent enough to create a bomb that could destroy the atmosphere and stupid enough to deploy it. The colonizers requested equipment to cleanse the atmosphere which was an extra expense. By the time they received approval and the equipment, all life forms on earth were dead except for cockroaches.
The colony shipped in fauna and flora from their original planet. It was much better really. Normally it was very difficult to get permission to make a planet exactly like home. There were groups that fought for planetary diversity but really it wasn't the colonizers' fault the original species killed themselves and almost everything else.
No one was happy about the cockroaches tho. Not even the groups for planetary diversity as cockroaches spread quickly across the galaxies once a few managed to get aboard ships. Major funding was approved to eradicate them. Nothing worked. The cockroaches kept surviving and coming back. Very irritating.

Note: I added texture and the aqua lighting on the right through Photoshop. For the texture, I used NightCafe to create an image with two planets on one layer and then used the SoftLight filter in PS at 40% opacity. The aqua lighting I brushed two circles of aqua, then Guassian Filter to spread them out, then Vivid Light filters at differing opacity for each circle.

Having wasted most of my day on Flickr-y things like slimming down my sets, adding new sets ready for the new year, and other general housekeeping, I decided I needed to keep Ginger company, and ended up sitting on the sofa researching whisky (in the glass) and double decker buses (on the Internet) while Ginger researched wedding dresses, whisky and took her own picture for the day.
The peace was only broken when I exclaimed "Well bugger me!" upon realising I'd accidentally managed to bag a FUTAB as well. For some reason Ginger found this statement amusing.

With a sudden “crack!” of pyrotechnics, a mockup of NASA’s Orion spacecraft released its grip on a set of cables and began a graceful, deliberate dive toward a pool 14 feet below.
Instead of an Olympic-style feat of athletics, it was a mighty stroke of engineering — and an essential step forward in NASA’s journey to Mars.
Onlookers gathered near the Hydro Impact Basin at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, applauded and cheered. They had just witnessed the simulated water landing of a space capsule, through the use of a 7.2-ton mockup covered with sensors capable of detecting forces that the structure and its astronaut crew would experience.

Gloster Meteor T.7(MOD) WL375 displayed at the Dumfries & Galloway Aviation Museum. Two non standard modifications are a photo nose and F.8 tail assembly. Painted in the last known scheme applied when in service at RAF West Freugh southwest Scotland.
Delivered to the RAF 5 June 1952 and in service up until 1969 it would seem mostly for research/trials work at West Freugh, the twin jet was semi derelict and abandoned in the long grass at that airfield in 1996.
The museum volunteers have done a grand restoration job on this classic early jet fighter design.

[I moved this cabinet card up to the head of the line because somebody favorited it today, and many of my new followers probably haven't seen it. When it comes to pure greatness, here you are. This is just a fabulous cabinet card. I paid a pretty penny for it back in the day, like, a lot of money, but I still think it was money well spent. A relative of Mrs. Robinson contacted me to tell me about her, but thank goodness she didn't want the photo back. I fall in love quite easily. I fell in love with Mrs. Robinson, and though my hopes are unrequited, I am still her eternal slave.]
I bought this card from an Internet dealer (not Ebay). He had posted the card, as he does every two weeks, and put a price on it, and no one had bought it. The photos are posted on Sunday, and the first person who says he will pay the money gets the photo. I told the dealer I was tempted, and he emailed back and urged me to buy it. Naturally, I ended up buying it, even though it was priced very high. I've paid more for a photo, but that was on Ebay. I'm not going to say how much I paid for this, but it was a lot.
On the one hand, you could say I overpaid. I mean, it's just a photo of a woman looking in a mirror. The photo has some fingerprint smudges, it's kind of plain, barren, there's not a lot going on, and though I find this woman attractive enough, she's not a stunning (a favorite Ebay seller's word) beauty. I mean, it's just a nice photograph---why did I waste my money?
I paid that money because the photograph is astonishingly modern. It's like the past leapfrogged the present and jumped into the future. I mean, this woman is dead, and there she is, looking right at us, right now, not a hundred years ago, or however long ago it was.
Did she know that we would be looking at her? Why isn't she smiling? I think she isn't smiling because she's saying "I Lived." She's saying, "I'm Living." She's saying, "I'm Alive." And of course she's not alive. But she is alive.
Perhaps I bought the photograph because it distills into a single artifact so much of what draws me to old photographs (and yes, of course, I find her attractive).
I don't think the seller had done a lot of research on Wirt Robinson. Maybe one of you who has access to genealogical resources could find her first name for me. Perhaps there was more than one "Wirt Robinson." However, I found information on only one, and since the one I found was a good one, I didn't look any further.
Wirt Robinson was in the Army, and he taught at West Point. He wrote a book which seems to be still in print, with the wonderful title "Notes On The Circumstances Of A Moving Projectile." Apparently, when he wasn't teaching at West Point, he was off in the tropics, looking at birds. Somewhere (ART_NAHPRO perhaps will find it for us) there is a book he wrote, or illustrated, about birds in the forests of Venezuela. How he could have borne the absence of Mrs. Wirt Robinson is beyond me. Perhaps the experience of her was so rich, so filling, so extravagant, that he could only take a little bit at a time, like foie gras or something. From the looks of things, I would guess that Mrs. Robinson was extremely sensitive in that little square inch just behind her ear lobe. They say that the universe is so vast that out there somewhere there is another planet where they speak English. If that is so, perhaps there is another planet out there where Mrs. Robinson and mrwaterslide might meet and fall in love (of course, not-wanting her to be Mrs. Robinson, but Amelia Arnold, or whatever her maiden name was.)
I have this idea of what Wirt Robinson was like. He must have been an academic sort of fellow, but, like Mr. Chips, he was that lucky fellow who met the love of his life, and won her heart, as she had won his. Unlike Mr. Chips, I hope his love endured in the earthly realm, and lasted to old age. There would have been fires in the fireplace, and sherry, and croquet perhaps, and the triumphs and sadnesses of students who came and went (it seems that Wirt Robinson lived in to the 20's though I haven't found a date of death.)
One last little tidbit, that I saw once and now can't find again---apparently at West Point there is a little memorial to Wirt Robinson, and it seems, though I haven't been able to find a picture, that it is a statue of a bunch of ducks. I really hope you're allowed to go there and see it.

The following is from the museums website.
According to the Air Force Historical Research Agency (AFHRA/RSA), Maxwell AFB, AL, the museum's C-131D has the following history:
The museum's C-131 is a D model, serial number 54-2808, manufactured by Consolidated-Vultee, San Diego, CA, and delivered to the Air Force on 19 October 1954. It served with the following locations:
Oct 1954 - To 1299th Air Transport (Special Missions-Medium), (MTC), Bolling AFB DC (MTC is the abbreviation for Military Air Transport Service and Special Missions aircraft were used for V.I.P. Transport.)
May 1956 - To 4500th Support Squadron (TAC), Langley AFB VA
Mar 1960 - To 4500th Air Base Wing (TAC), Langley AFB VA
Feb 1964 - To 1001th Air Base Wing (HQ USAF), Andrews AFB MD
Jul 1968 - Unit became 1001st Composite Wing
Apr 1975 - To 125th Fighter-Interceptor Group (ANG), Jacksonville AP FL (according to sources at Maxwell AFB this aircraft was most likely used for a general personnel transport and a V.I.P. Transport).
May 1989 - Dropped from USAF inventory by transfer to school or museum This aircraft made its very last flight from Jacksonville AP FL to March Field in 1989 and officially retired from U.S. Air Force service on May 31st 1989 with a total of 17892.6 flight hours on the airframe. This aircraft is on loan from the USAF.
The size of a 40.000 year old tooth from the Denisova cave indicates a very tall individual, and artefacts found tell about
an unbelievable modern technology - including high speed drilling. The first kings of Egypt were called Gods, but they lived with the people and helped them to develop their civilisation. Many of the granite and basalt artefacts found in Egypt can only have been done by high speed drilling. Were these divine kings in fact Denisova hominins? Did they underestimate how fragile the eco-balance of our environment is, did they trigger a worldwide catastrophe that "capsized" the Earth and wiped them out?
Remnants of a previously unknown hominin, distinct from both early modern humans and Neanderthals,
were a few years ago found in the Denisova cave of southern Siberia: Denisova hominins. The bones and also artefacts excavated at the same level were carbon dated to around 40.000 BP. The scientists say these Denisovans had "modern technology and ornaments, including a very beautiful bracelet". Our archaic cousins the Denisova Hominins
A catastrophe in form of a flood that, according to the legends wiped out the Egyptian civilization that was developed by divine kings (Gods), shall have taken place more than 30.000 years ago. The finger bone, the large tooth and the artefacts found in the Denisova cave in the north-east Altai Mountains region are also dated to be more than 30.000 years old. The small bone belonged to a very young girl. A small bracelet of polished stone was also found, and since it was found in the same layer and dated to the same age; it might have belonged to her.
We can only speculate why the young girl was in the cave. Could it be that she was seeking shelter from a coming catastrophe, might be brought there by her mother or father? Or that she was washed into the cave by the raging wave of a tsunami - even if the cave today is 600 meters above sea level?
It seems that the first rulers of Egypt had a technology that was even more advanced than we have today; we are in fact unable to replicate many of the artefacts found. And it still is an open question how they managed to construct the Great Pyramid with its incredible precision and up to 70 ton's stones.
The archaeologists say that the ancient Egyptians used simple tools like bronze chisels and stone hammers but many of the items found, like basalt jars and also the so called sarcophagus in the Great Pyramid, cannot be made without high speed drilling with drill-bits harder than basalt and granite. The artefacts found in the Denisova cave, the bracelet with pendant, the eyed needles and other ornaments, also witness of a superior technology - and believe it or not: They had used hight speed drilling!
Not us homo sapien sapien
We do not know how the Denisova hominines looked but as mentioned: A tooth found in the cave was very large, so they might have been very tall. We know that people in the area surrounding the Altai Mountains in the 6th to 3rd centuries BC had a very advanced technology; a race of white skinned, blond, blue eyed and very tall people with Caucasian features and long skulls.
The divine kings, the "Gods", of Egypt were often depicted as white skinned, blond, blue eyed and very tall people with Caucasian features and a long skull. Were the "Gods" of the ancient Egyptian king-lists in fact Denisovans? Not us homo sapien sapien but our archaic cousins the Denisova Hominins?
We do not yet know what the Denisova hominins looked like but a Denisovan tooth found in the cave is the largest archaic homo species tooth found. Were the Denisovans the giants of the legends all over the world? Where they the first kings of Egypt - the divine Pharaohs? Did they have an advanced technology that later got lost, might be together with the Denisovans themselves, in a world wide catastrophe?
Global warming
Professor Gregory Ryskin at Northwestern University in Illinois, USA, has found that the long-term changes in the Earth's main magnetic field are possibly induced by our oceans' circulation. We know that global warming already has raised the temperatures of the oceans of the world and some scientists have proposed that this could disrupt thermohaline circulation (THC), which is a massive, worldwide system of ocean currents. We have already seen a change in some ocean currents, so a change in our Earth's magnetic field might already be happening! Might be this is why our magnetic poles are moving much more rapid than before! Scary stuff - because this could also mean a change in the Earth's gravity - and changes in gravitational forces will certainly affect the tectonic plates and with the continents on them. Might be this is the reason why we also experience more earthquakes than before?! Might be we should take Hapgood's conclusions and Heyerdahl's warning serious?
Did the Egyptian "capsize" the world - did they have technologies that could contribute to a sudden and rapid polar change? Might be because of and a change in the Earths gravity and/or magnetic field? Well, some say that the ancient Egyptians used the pyramids to create a unique form of energy. That they by paying special attention to celestial events, they could have used natural forces like static electricity, the Earth's magnetic field, and lightning.
Electric phenomenon
Sir William Seimens, a famous German born English inventor, travelled to Egypt and visited the Great Pyramid. While they were standing on the top, the guide remarked that when he raised his hand with his fingers spread, it caused an intense ringing noise in his ears. Sir William ventured a few tests, one by raising his arm with his index finger pointing, which he claimed caused a prickling sensation. He then drank some wine from a metallic cup which gave him a distinct shock. He was convinced he was witnessing some sort of electric phenomenon and instantly put this to the test by assembling a makeshift Leyden Jar, an apparatus for the storage of static electricity, by wrapping moistened newspaper around the wine bottle. The static charge at the peak of the pyramid was so high that sparks began to stream from the bottle. The guide was so shocked that he accused Sir William of witchcraft and tried to grab the bottle, but an electrical jolt knocked him unconscious.
A power plant?
Master craftsman and engineer Christopher Dunn argues that based on his measurements of Egyptian monuments, ancient stonecutting achieved a high-precision accuracy surpassing modern accuracy standards in building. He asked himself what was the power source that fuelled such a civilization and after twenty years of research, Dunn reveals that the Great Pyramid of Giza was actually a electrical power plant. Based on the technology of harmonic resonance, he claims that the pyramid was a large acoustical device! By its size and dimensions, this crystal edifice created a harmonic resonance with the Earth and converted Earth's vibrational energies to microwave radiation. He shows in his books and articles how the pyramid's numerous chambers and passageways were positioned with the deliberate precision to maximize its acoustical qualities.
Inventor Michael F. Praamsma partly agrees but he says that the Great Pyramid at Giza was "a sophisticated acoustical sound chamber that was used as a technique to generate natural sounds to create an elevated frequency environment confined to a single resonant physical cavity". He claims that the Great Pyramid was systematically and competently sealed, and that this was "a sign it was decommissioned and intended to be of use again at a future day, when the awakened humanity would restore it competently to its rightful function, unfortunately history went another way."
A California researcher, Peter Grandics, has shown how an antenna, modeled on the Great Pyramid of Giza, can transfer the power of atmospheric electrostatic discharge impulses into a resonant circuit that converts the random impulses into an alternating current as a potential source of renewable electric power. Thousands of terawatts of power are generated in the troposphere by thunderstorms and a pyramidal structure, with its optimal geometry and construction, can act as a suitable charge sink, capturing this electric.
A biological engineer named John Burke argues that the movement of underground water in limestone aquifers below monuments produces an electric current via friction and the rich magnetic dolomite content of the stone. Burke measured positive ground current at Silbury hill in England, an ancient pyramidal mound composed of chalk and clay that lies on top of such limestone bedrock riddled with zig zagging aquifers filled with rainwater. Such tunnels and water caverns lie beneath the Giza plateau as well. Abd'El Hakim Awyan, a native Egyptian archaeologist, attests to swimming in such tunnels during his youth on the Giza plateau.
Electric torches?
Another alternative theory is that the pyramids were wireless power plants used to generate electricity and for wireless communication. On the internet you will find a video where it is speculated that the Great Pyramid may have been powered by the Ark of the Covenant. The person behind the video is saying that murals inside tombs and temples show that the ancient Egyptians were using handheld electric torches powered by cable free power sources. It is believed that the so called sarcophagus inside the Great Pyramid has the exact dimensions, according to the Christian bible, to house the Ark of Covenant: That the pyramid with a capstone of gold and the covenant in place was a kind of super capacitor the could produce and store electric energy. It is also theorized that Moses stole the Ark of Covenant from the pyramid and took it with him out of Egypt. This should be the main reason for the downfall of the Egyptian pharaohs; without the electrics power their own power dwindled. This should have happened at the time of the pharaoh Ramses II.
Three engineers; Erica Miller, Sean Sloan and Gregg Wilson all agree on one theory: That the Great Pyramid acted as a huge nuclear breeder reactor, which produced Plutonium fuel by mediating uranium isotopes in water. Supposedly, the King's Chamber was flooded with a water pump, and the sarcophagus was packed with uranium ore.
Frenchman Antoine Bovis stumbled upon dead cats and mice that had been disposed of in the trash cans inside the Great Pyramid, and they were perfectly mummified - apparently automatically, without putrefying or giving off a stench. When Bovis returned to France he built a scale model of Khufu's monument, deposited a dead cat inside - and the Giza phenomenon repeated itself, the cat mummified without rotting. Karl Drbal of Czechoslovakia researched this further and said that this was due to the pyramid's special cavity that resonated with cosmic microwaves concentrated in the earth's magnetic field. He also hypothesized that the same concept would work for rusted shavers, and claimed the sharpness of the tools returned after lacing them in a scale model of the pyramid. Stanford Research Institute, however, carrying out experiments in the Great Pyramid, and found that biological samples deteriorated at normal rates within the structure.
Energy grid
Some researchers say that it not by chance that the Great Pyramid was built where it was. They propose that the Earth has a planetary energetic grid that operates through geometric patterns called Sacred Geometry. Grids meet at various intersecting points forming a grid or matrix. These grid points shall be found at some of the strongest power places on the planet. A planetary grid map outlined by the Russian team of Goncharov, Morozov and Makarov has an overall organization anchored to the north and south axial poles and the Great Pyramid at Giza.
It is said that the ancient people, including the Egyptians, knew that wherever the earth's energy gathered into a vortex was a sacred place. Very simular is the theory that the Earth has as net of electromagnetic lines, and that the intersecting points of the network, the knots, are influenced by underground veins of water as well as magnetic forces emanating naturally from the Earth. The ancient Egyptians are said to have been able to move and/or anchor the energy lines by pushing metal rods into the ground before they built a temple or pyramid - they shall have called it "piercing the snake".
Also what is called lay lines seems to be connected to an ancient grid of a form. According to Wikipedia; "Ley lines are hypothetical alignments of a number of places of geographical interest, such as ancient monuments and megaliths." Archaeologists have documented that the alignments are existing but it is not proved that the ley lines and their intersection points resonate a special psychic or magical energy or that they have electrical or magnetic forces as some writers claim.
Pyramid fortex using a Tesla coil
In addition to all this it is also said that we have high energy spots on the Earth called vortices - and they shall be linked ley lines. A Vortex (plural: vortices) is usually a spinning, often turbulent, flow of fluid but some also include a kind of spinning Earth energy due to its electromagnetic field. Such vortices can be volcanoes, high mountains, hot springs, mineral deposits, deep gorges, rock outcroppings and even in deserts like the Sinai. Ancient sites can also be vortices, like the pyramids of Egypt. Dr. Dee J. Nelson has taken a so called Kirlian photograph of energy spiralling out of the top of a pyramid using a Tesla Coil.
Nikola Tesla - Earthquake Machine
The Tesla Coil was invented by Serbian-American engineer Nikola Tesla (1856 - 1943), one of history's greatest scientists. His coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit, used to produce high-voltage, low-current, and high frequency alternating-current electricity. Yes, he is best known for inventing the alternating electrical current (AC) used all over the world today, but his patents and theoretical work helped form the basis for radio comunication and many other inventions.
Nikola Tesla was an electrical genius, but he also was responsible for a number of mechanical devices. One of these was his "Earthquake Machine" also known as the Tesla Oscillator. The machine which Tesla tested was no larger than an alarm clock but it is said that when he started to twiddle the machine's frequency-controller in his lab: blocks around chaos reigned as objects fell off shelves, furniture moved across floors, windows shattered, and pipes broke. When the police arrived they found the inventor smashing the resonator to bits with a hammer: "Gentlemen, I am sorry. You are just a trifle too late to witness my experiment. I found it necessary to stop it suddenly and unexpectedly in an unusual way, he said calmly to the astonished officers.
Tesla was convinced that by finding the correct frequency, any structure can be destroyed (an obvious example is the wine glass shattered by an opera singer). He later told a friend that he could split the Earth with one of these devices: "I could set the earth's crust into such a state of vibration that it would rise and fall hundreds of feet, throwing rivers out of their beds, wrecking buildings, and practically destroying civilization".
Tesla and coils
Tesla claimed that the laws of electromagnetics were connected to gravity, and one of his patents was on a flying machine without wings or propellers but based on what he called electrogravitics. Tesla also was working on a generator that basically worked by harnessing the electricity from the air and the ground. He used the natural conductivity of limestone aquifers to generate electrical power. The power ran up the ground into the Tesla coil tower above, which in theory should channel wirelessly transmitted power over great distances. Since Telsa wanted the distribution of the energy to be free, the inventor's sponsor pulled out from funding the scientist's machine before it was completed. Tesla died a poor and disillusioned man.
His research station for transmitting power at Colorado Springs might have a link to the Great Pyramid - a notable harmonic association between the latitude positions of both sites. Coral Castle - 9-ton gate that moves with just a touch of the finger.
Edward Leedskalnin - Coral Castle
Another person that was interested in gravity and electromagnetism was Edward Leedskalnin (1887-1951) - an eccentric Latvian emigrant to the United States. He built the extraordinary monument known as Coral Castle in Florida. Leedskalnin single-handedly and secretly carved and displayed over 1,100 tons of coral rock, the heaviest stone weighing 35 tons. It is a mystery how the tiny man could move all the heavy stones. He claimed to have discovered the secrets of the pyramids, and had found out how the Egyptians and the ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan, and Asia, with only primitive tools, raised and set in place blocks of stone weighing many tons! But he did not want to show
"I have discovered the secrets of the pyramids, and have found out how the Egyptians and the ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan, and Asia, with only primitive tools, raised and set in place blocks of stone weighing many tons!"
- Edward Leedskalninanybody how it was done and worked mostly at night-time. A group of young witnesses claimed to see coral blocks floating through the air "like hydrogen balloons" and another time one of Ed's neighbours found him singing to the stones with his hands placed on their surface as if he were somehow making them lighter.
Ed Leedskalnin disputed contemporary science and believed that "all matter consists of magnets which can produce measurable phenomena, and electricity." Ed would say he had "re-discovered the laws of weight, measurement, and leverage," and that these concepts "involved the relationship of the Earth to celestial alignments."
Researchers have speculated that Ed Leedskalnin learned the secret of levitation and one theory in particular caught the imagination of many. The planetary grid hypothesis postulates that the earth is covered by an invisible web of energy which is concentrated at points of telluric power, the convergence of which create unusual phenomena. Leedskalnin moved the complex from Florida City to Homestead and some suggest this was because Ed realized he had made a mathematical error in his original positioning and moved to an area with greater telluric force.
The famed American psychic Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) said during his readings that the Great Pyramid "was erected by the application of those universal laws and forces of nature which cause iron to float. By the same laws, gravity may be overcome, or neutralized, and stone made to float in air. The Pyramid was thus built by levitation, abetted by song and chanting". He also said that the Great Pyramid was built was built as a hall of initiation around 10,500BC by those who originally came from the civilization of Atlantis.
Levitation by sound
Metal rods that caused the stone to levitate
The current estimates of mainstream science contends that it took a workforce of 4,000 to 5,000 men 20 years to build the Great Pyramid using ropes, pulleys, ramps, ingenuity and brute force. But the 10th century Arab historian, Abul Hasan Ali Al-Masudi had written a 30-volume history of the world and he wrote about how the great stone blocks of the pyramid were transported. First, he said, a "magic papyrus" was placed under the stone to be moved. Then the stone was struck with a metal rod that caused the stone to levitate and move along a path paved with stones and fenced on either side by metal poles. The stone would travel along the path, wrote Al-Masudi, for a distance of about 50 meters and then settle to the ground. The process would then be repeated until the builders had the stone where they wanted it.
An ancient legend tells that The Great Pyramid was built from year 10,490 to 10,390 B.C. That the god Ra made studies of the terrain and took great care in figuring the geometrical location in relation to the Sphinx and the four cardinal points of the compass. The Pyramid was then built by levitation, abetted by song and chanting.
Well, we do not have any proof that the ancient Egyptians could make the huge stones fly through the air but levitation is no longer only a party-trick by magicians with quick fingers. We have high speed trains that levitate by the help of magnetic power and in an incredible move for modern medicine; scientists are using sound waves to help levitate droplets of drugs to make them with less side effects.
A kind of Swiss knife
The Great Pyramid is very different to other pyramids, in Giza or else. Most alternative researches conclude that it was some kind of machine; most possibly a power station. We have seen that it would be impossible to use the Great Pyramid as a tomb for a pharaoh and that dating of seashell tells that it much older than the other pyramids. The nearby sphinx has been re-dated to be at least 5000 years old because of the erosion from water, but it might be much older. The same will go for the Great Pyramid. Some speculate that the Great Pyramid was a kind of Swiss knife - a gigantic multipurpose tool. The world "pyramid" means "fire in the middle" - so if it was a kind of power station with the power source situated in what is called Khufu's sarcophagus the some researches in one way might be correct when that speculate that the pyramid also was built as a gigantic ram water pump - inside the base of the pyramid. Yes, it could have been a power-station with a water cooling system! We have seen that some say that the power source was the ark of covenant from the Christian bible and some say
The King's Chamber with the stones above
King's Chamber and large stones
that Moses was the person who stole it from the pyramid. That the pharaohs' rapid decline took place because with no more energy, in form of electric power, then their advanced civilisation could no longer exist!
A gigantic Tesla coil?
Or might be the Great Pyramid was a kind of a gigantic Tesla coil? That the huge granite stones, highly polished on the underside and placed above the so called Kings chamber, made it possible to harness electricity from the ionosphere - just like Nikola Tesla wanted to do it?
About 20 minutes drive from the Great Pyramid is the site of Abu Ghurab, the "Place of Osiris". The ruined stepped pyramid once had an alabaster platform on the top and on the platform it had been standing an obelisk ("sun stick"); most likely, the total height was between fifty and seventy meters. It had looked like a pyramid with a flat top, just like Great Pyramid! Is it possible that the Great Pyramid once had an obelisk standing on it's flat top - and not a capstone? The legends says that spirit of the sun god entered the obelisks at certain periods…
Could it have been like this - an obelisk on top of the Great Pyramid?
Can it have been like this?
Tesla viewed the Earth as a negative electric pole and the sun as a positive pole of an electrode; so an obelisk standing on top of a pyramid would to him be a solar-electric diode! If the under ground part of the pyramid was a pump that brought water up to the Kings Chamber then we would have a capacitor with a very good earth ground. Yes, the Great Pyramid could have been an extremely powerful kind of solar-panel!
Might be Tesla got the idea of harnessing the ionosphere from the Egyptians? Might be they had made the strongest power station ever but that something went terribly wrong; a technical fault or a construction-fault? Or might be extra strong solar activity? Stephen A. Reynods of New Zealand has done research showing that changes in the ionosphere caused by strong solar activity can cause changes in the Earth's internal magnetic field and through telluric current induced in the Earth's crust trigger earthquakes. So might be it happened that instead of harnessing high voltage that could be stored and used, the pyramid send the current into the ground and
The God Ptah with a Djed pillar
Ptah and pillar
triggered a gigantic earthquake that literally shook the whole Earth and caused geological catastrophes worldwide? Might be the changes to the internal magnetic field was so fast and so strong that the outer crust slipped - just like professor Charles H. Hapgood once suggested (but not due to imbalance of the polar ice)?
Interesting enough; one of the oldest and most important symbols to the ancient Egyptian was the "Djed Pillar". Take a look at the image to the right of the God Ptah holding a Djed pillar. The pillar looks very simular til the set-up of the stones above the Kings Chamber - and also a homemade Tesla coil! You might also have noticed a Djed pillar in picture of what could illustrate an electric lamp in an ancient Egyptian temple, higher up in the article!
Very advanced technology
In the Palermo, Turin and Manetho king lists, there are names of eight god kings that ruled Egypt in the beginning; Ptah, Ra, Geb, Osiris, Set, Horus, Thoth and the female god Ma'at. Even if they sometimes were represented in a variety of forms on murals, often with human body and animals/birds heads, these gods seemed to be something else than imaginary gods living in a theological heaven. They lived on earth, were married with children, and had duties they performed. They also helped the ordinary people to develop. We have seen that Ptah made the Nile-delta liveable after the great flood and Thoth is credited as the author of all works of science, religion, philosophy as well as magic and he is said to have been married with the female god and ruler Ma'at.
Pharaoh Can it be that the first kings of Egypt were called Gods because they came from a far away place and looked a bit different to the other humans in ancient Egypt? The word "God" comes from "shining/bright" and murals picturing the first pharaohs/gods show that they had so white skin that the must have looked very bright compared to other people! Were they also called devine because they had much better mental capabilities and a very advanced technology?

Dendera light

The dendera light
The dendera light is a motif in the Hathor temple at Dendera in Egypt. A fringe theory interpretation of the reliefs is that they depict some form of ancient Egyptian lighting technology, similar to an arc lamp or cathode ray tube.
The temple contains several reliefs depicting Harsomtus, in the form of a snake, emerging from a lotus flower which is usually attached to the bow of a barge. The so-called dendera light is a variation of this motif, showing Harsomtus in an oval container called hn, which might represent the womb of Nut.[1][2][3] Sometimes a djed pillar supports the snake or the container. A closely related motif is "god resting on the lotus flower".

Fringe interpretation
In contrast to the mainstream interpretation, a fringe theory proposes that the reliefs depict Ancient Egyptian technology, based on comparison to similar modern devices (such as a Cathode-ray tube, Geissler tubes, Crookes tubes, and arc lamps). J. N. Lockyer's passing reference to a colleague's humorous suggestion that electric lamps would explain the absence of lampblack deposits in the tombs has sometimes been forwarded as an argument supporting this particular interpretation (another argument being made is the use of a system of reflective mirrors).[4] Proponents of this interpretation have also used a text referring to "high poles covered with copper plates" to argue this,[5] but Bolko Stern has written in detail explaining why the copper-covered tops of poles (which were lower than the associated pylons) do not relate to electricity or lightning, pointing out that no evidence of anything used to manipulate electricity had been found in Egypt and that this was a magical and not a technical installation.[6]
Archaeologist and debunker Kenneth Feder argued that if ancient Egyptians really had such advanced technology, some light bulb remains (glass shards, metal sockets, filaments...) should have been discovered during archaeological excavations. By applying Occam's razor, he instead highlighted the feasibility of the aforementioned reflective mirrors system, and also that the notion of adding salt to torches to minimize lampblack was well known by ancient Egyptians.[7]

The ancient Egyptian Dendera Light "protective magical energy in liquid form" is the evaporative cooling fog. The fact that the Dendera Light is made of liquid water that transforms itself in a magical way, is exactly what are describing ancient Egyptians themselves : [About the snake inside the Dendera Light Bulb] "The field surrounding Ra’s snake form is referred to in ancient Egyptian literature as protective magical energy in liquid form that all gods and pharaohs possess (Faulkner 1970*)." ahotcupofjoe.net/2016/11/dendera-light-bulb-and-bagdad-ba...

Evaporative cooling for the sodium carbonate manufacturing
My study is based on 2 key elements : the first one is the cold production inside the horizontal passage of the Great Pyramid ; and the second one is the production of sodium carbonate (pure natron), as suggested by the Red Pyramid.
The ammonia still present inside the Red Pyramid, indicates that they were using a sodium carbonate process identical or very close to the ammonia-soda process known as the Solvay process, developed into its modern form in the 1860s in Europe.
In the Solvay process, the ammonia only has a minor role ; but inside the Red Pyramid, my guess is that they didn't control the temperature of the different chemical reactions inside the Solvay towers. They couldn't cool down the towers.
That is the reason why they engineered the visible part of the Great Pyramid : to produce cold inside the horizontal passage, store it inside the Queen's chamber, and transfer it to the sodium carbonate production towers, passing through the Queen's chamber shafts.

Plön ist die Kreisstadt des Kreises Plön in Schleswig-Holstein und hat knapp 9000 Einwohner. Wahrzeichen der Stadt ist das Schloss, das im 17. Jahrhundert erbaut wurde. Plön besitzt ein Gymnasium mit 300-jähriger Geschichte, ist Standort der Marineunteroffizierschule und Sitz des Max-Planck-Instituts für Evolutionsbiologie.
Plön liegt direkt am größten Binnensee Schleswig-Holsteins, dem Großen Plöner See, und ist eingebettet in die hügelige Seenlandschaft der Holsteinischen Schweiz. Nur 7,8 km² des Stadtgebietes sind Landfläche. Der Rest des Stadtgebietes verteilt sich auf elf Seen, die vollständig zur Stadt Plön gehören, und fünf weitere, an denen Plön einen Anteil hat.
Durch Erbteilungen innerhalb des dänischen Königshauses entstand 1622 das Herzogtum Schleswig-Holstein-Plön. Mit Errichtung des Plöner Schlosses anstelle der alten Burg 1633–1636 durch Herzog Joachim Ernst wurde Plön Hauptstadt des kleinen Fürstentums. Als Residenzstadt erfuhr Plön eine beträchtliche Aufwertung. So gründete Herzog Johann Adolph („Hans Adolf“) 1685 im Nordwesten der Stadt die Neustadt, um hier Handwerker anzusiedeln und damit die Wirtschaftskraft des Herzogtums zu steigern. Unter Friedrich Carl wurde das Schlossgebiet um mehrere barocke Gebäude und einen Lustgarten erweitert. Die Stadt besaß damals ca. 1000 Einwohner. 1761 fiel das Herzogtum an die dänische Krone zurück, da der letzte Herzog keine Erben hatte. Damit gehörte Plön bis zum Bundesexekution Ende 1863 wie das restliche Herzogtum Holstein einerseits zum dänischen Gesamtstaat, andererseits aber auch zum Heiligen Römischen Reich (bis 1806) bzw. zum Deutschen Bund. Es diente zeitweilig dem dänischen König als Sommerresidenz, blieb ansonsten aber eine Provinzstadt mit ungefähr 2000 Einwohnern. Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts weilte der dänische Kronprinz einige Jahre zur Sommerfrische im Schloss, das seither seinen weißen Putz mit dem grauen Dach zeigt.
1867 wurde Plön, nun Teil Preußens, nach Inkrafttreten der preußischen Verwaltungsreform Kreisstadt. Die Hohenzollern-Prinzen erhielten ihre schulische Ausbildung zum Teil in Plön; die Prinzeninsel ist heute noch im Besitz des Hauses Hohenzollern. Für Besuche der Kaiserfamilie wurde ein eigener Bahnhof errichtet. König (später Kaiser) Wilhelm I. bestimmte 1868 das Schloss Plön zur Kadettenanstalt. Die ersten 100 Kadetten im Alter von 11 bis 13 Jahren zogen am 1. Mai jenes Jahres ein. Im Jahr 1896 beschloss Wilhelm II., der letzte deutsche Kaiser, seinen beiden ältesten Söhnen Wilhelm und Eitel Friedrich eine geistige und militärische Ausbildung in der Kadettenanstalt Plön zuteilwerden zu lassen. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg wurde daraus ein Internat, das 1933–1945 als Nationalpolitische Erziehungsanstalt diente. Seit 1946 war es wieder staatliches Internat und das bis 2000.
1891 gründete Emil Otto Zacharias mit finanzieller Unterstützung der preußischen Regierung und mehrerer Privatleute am Plöner See die erste „Biologische Station“ für Süßwasserforschung auf deutschem Boden als privates Forschungsinstitut. Nach seinem Tod übernahm August Thienemann die Leitung. Als Nachfolgeinstitution existierte lange das Max-Planck-Institut für Limnologie. Dieser Institutsstandort wurde, nach insgesamt 115 Jahren der limnologischen Forschung, als Max-Planck-Institut für Evolutionsbiologie auf andere Schwerpunkte ausgerichtet. Plön ist außerdem „Korporativ Förderndes Mitglied“ der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft.

Plön is the administrative centre of the County of Plön in Schleswig-Holstein and has just under 9,000 inhabitants. The town's landmark is thePalace, which was built in the 17th century. Plön has a grammar school with a 300-year history, is home to the naval non-commissioned officer school and the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology.
Plön is located directly on the largest inland lake in Schleswig-Holstein, the Großer Plöner See, and is embedded in the hilly lake landscape of Holstein Switzerland. Only 7.8 km² of the town area is land. The rest of the town area is divided between eleven lakes that belong entirely to the town of Plön and five others in which Plön has a share.
The Duchy of Schleswig-Holstein-Plön was created in 1622 through inheritance divisions within the Danish royal family. With the construction of Plön Castle in 1633-1636 by Duke Joachim Ernst to replace the old castle, Plön became the capital of the small principality. As a residential town, Plön was considerably upgraded. In 1685, Duke Johann Adolph ("Hans Adolf") founded the New Town in the north-west of the town in order to attract craftsmen and thus increase the economic power of the duchy. Under Friedrich Carl, several baroque buildings and a pleasure garden were added to the palace grounds. The town had a population of around 1000 at the time. In 1761, the duchy reverted to the Danish crown as the last duke had no heirs. This meant that Plön, like the rest of the Duchy of Holstein, belonged to the Danish state on the one hand, but also to the Holy Roman Empire (until 1806) and the German Confederation on the other, until the Confederation was decreed at the end of 1863. For a time, it served as a summer residence for the Danish king, but otherwise remained a provincial town with around 2000 inhabitants. In the middle of the 19th century, the Danish crown prince spent a few years at the castle for his summer retreat, which has retained its white plaster and grey roof ever since.
In 1867, Plön, now part of Prussia, became a County centre after the Prussian administrative reform came into force. Some of the Hohenzollern princes received their schooling in Plön; the Prinzeninsel is still owned by the House of Hohenzollern today. A railway station was built for visits by the imperial family. King (later Emperor) Wilhelm I designated Plön Castle as a cadet school in 1868. The first 100 cadets aged 11 to 13 moved in on 1 May of that year. In 1896, Wilhelm II, the last German emperor, decided to give his two eldest sons Wilhelm and Eitel Friedrich an intellectual and military education at the Plön cadet school. After the First World War, it became a boarding school, which served as a national political education centre from 1933 to 1945. It became a state boarding school again in 1946 until 2001.
In 1891, Emil Otto Zacharias founded the first "Biological Station" for freshwater research on German soil as a private research institute on Lake Plön with financial support from the Prussian government and several private individuals. After his death, August Thienemann took over the management. The Max Planck Institute for Limnology existed for a long time as a successor institution. After a total of 115 years of limnological research, this institute site was reorganised as the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology with a different focus. Plön is also a "Corporate Supporting Member" of the Max Planck Society.
