I found it difficult to find a source on the monetary system in the Byzantine Empire. My luck changed over the weekend when I found what appears to be a lengthy dissertation titled, “The Economic History of Byzantium From the Seventh to the Fifteenth Century” published by Dumbarton Oaks Research and Library Collection Was…[Read more]

The point is what toxin were they carrying or accidentally carrying? Bioweapons in my mind have a whole new meaning if you believe that a virus is an exosome. In other words, we are being totally bamboozled by looking in the wrong direction. Could be an infectious bacteria, EASILY, but if you believe that we have been in the “look over here…[Read more]

SOCIAL PHYSICS: Opening a Champagne bottle by moving the cork is troublesome, sometimes messy, and often dangerous. Hold the cork firmly in one place and turn the bottle. It’s leverage.
Soon we may have to cope with a lot more unpleasantness. Think carefully about the easiest way to attack a problem and use leverage. A child, using l…[Read more]-

Perhaps euphemism, ticks spread viruses?
Funny, good market timing for the book and teacher’s aid, what with the new abnormal, home schooling…only the approved stuff on-line is to be stuffed in those young malleable minds…THEY ARE OURS NOW, TEACHERS LEAVE THE KIDS ALONE…. -

The same can be said for almost any news service in the world Bob…as you can see in what I wrote I offered two alternative ‘views’ on the article, and I’m sure there are many more. I posted it merely as ‘information’ not as a hard and fast belief on my part…time alone will tell if it has any accuracy and therefore validity 🙂
-
Whew…the best that can be done with most “information” available for mass consumption is deciphering the agenda or narrative being pushed and an occasional snippet of what’s really meant. The use of hyperbolic words are usually a key and extensively used more and more lately. And the intent seems to be to shock or pretent something is actually…[Read more]

Cultural demise?….artifacts removed, refurbished and rebranded as decorative do dads….
https://news.yahoo.com/transfer-sphinxes-cairo-square-stirs-controversy-112913520.html-
Decorative? Looks more like a symbolic reaffirmation of Egypt’s real heritage.

Well I suppose more will be reminded if the artifacts are moved to Cairo’s main square then to return them to their original site, especially in the current atmosphere of stay in place.

Knowing that I am totally absorbed in the ornithological world, wherever I have lived and in my home (I raise Australian birds, finches and a few miscellaneous “others”), a friend sent me this. Enjoy.

… Yes, that phrase catches one’s eye doesn’t it? I would suggest that it is worthy at least of some small effort toward an interpretation.

Even considering the extreme levels of political polarization, the split over the work of Judy Mikovits, her accusations, her stance on vaccines, etc. is absolutely biblical.

I like the comment of Dr. Haggmann’s that he’s a retired cardiologist with time to read.
Schole is the Greek word for leisure, he’s still going to school, thankfully. Good post.

Big pharma spends more billions on advertising and political buy offs, including obviously Judges, then R & D. Interesting business model for a MBA student at Ivy League colleges to have pay to learn…seems innate once the audit ledgers are reviewed.

Fantastic! Keep a record of your links somewhere Gabe. Just started law studies and I’m deeply interested in these histories. I have no idea where my studies will take me, but your interests seem align with mine and as you post, I’ll collect 🙂
Theology profoundly impacts the way the we think about law. For an explanation of this and more see Dr. Joseph p Farrell’s book God, History, Dialectic, and Opposition. In this book Farrell describes the differences between Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox theology. He explains how st. Augustine’s dialectical formulation of the doctrine of…[Read more]
Here is a tidbit related to the Tower of Babel Book, where Descartes cites Alexandrian mathematicians Pappus and Diopanthus as explaining things best. This by Sir Thomas Heath book contains chapters on them:

Try searching for “Byzantine coins/coinage” too.
I have tried searching for Byzantine coinage, but those books narrowly focus on Byzantine coinage while ignoring everything else.
