Perhaps the title of this Book – The Devil‘s Legacy to Earth Mortals may at first seem somewhat strange; they will pause as they do at a Witches Prayer, and wonder whether they had best look into it or no, lest they should really raise the Devil by reading what he has bequeathed to mankind. It is a question not yet determined by the learned, whether the word Devil be singular, that is to say, the name of a person standing by himself, or a noun of multitude; if it be a singular, and so must be used, personally only as a proper name, it consequently implies one imperial devil, monarch, or god of the whole clan of Hell; justly distinguished by the term, The Devil, or as the Scots call him, the muckle-horned Dee‘l, or as others in a wilder dialect, The Devil of Hell, that is to say, The Devil of a devil; or (better still) as the Scriptures expresses it, by way of emphasis, the great red dragon, the Devil, and Satan....

The power of these witches as we find in their earliest records originated in their intercourse with familiar spirits, invisible beings who must be supposed to be enlisted in the armies of the prince of darkness. We do not read in these ancient memorials of any league of mutual benefit entered into between the merely human party, and his or her supernatural assistant. But modern times have amply supplied this defect. The witch or sorcerer could not secure the assistance of the demon but by a sure and faithful compact, by which the human party obtained the industrious and vigilant service of his familiar for a certain terms of years, only on condition that, when the term was expired, the demon of undoubted right was to obtain the possession of the indentured party, and to convey him irremissibly and forever to the regions of the damned. The contract was drawn out in authentic form, signed by the sorcerer, and attested with his blood, and was then carried away by the demon, to be produced again at the appointed time....

This is a book about the beginnings of the Jewish people, from prehistory to the time the Jewish Nation was formed in the land of Canaan. Many books cover the early history of the Jews, the Bible being, perhaps, the most read one. However, archaeological discoveries made over last 30 or so years shed some new and important light on many events in that history. These discoveries have been published in a number of books and scholarly papers. For those who do not have time, or inclination to go over those numerous sources, this short (intentionally short) book retells the early history of the Jewish people in light of those discoveries. For those, who would like to dive deeper into specific subjects, the extensive bibliography provides the material for further reading....

Dans le chapitre 1 nous nous intéressons à l’horoscope chinois. (De toutes les sources existantes qui portent sur cette astrologie nous nous contentons de mentionner le livre [7].) Deux énoncés en sont le résultat : 1. Des évènements analogues liés à des changements de paramètres du pouvoir, ou à des acquisitions ou pertes de territoire et/ou de souveraineté, ont lieu souvent dans deux années distantes d’un multiple de 60 ans l’un de l’autre (c’est à dire d’un nombre entier de cycles complets de cet horoscope). « Souvent » veut dire « bien plus souvent que quand cette distance dans le temps n’est pas un multiple de 60 ans ». 2. Une distance dans le temps d’un multiple impair de 30 ans favorise l’apparition de tels évènements, mais à caractère opposé (ou plutôt mélangeant analogie et contraste). Cette apparition est plus fréquente que dans le cas où la distance dans le temps entre les deux évènements n’est pas un multiple impair de 30 ans. Dans le chapitre 2, on compare quatre régions géographiques (la Péninsule Ibérique, l’Italie, la Péninsule Balkanique et la Géorgie) pour observer des similitudes historiques. Puis on ajoute à c...

De toutes les forces naturelles, l’eau semble avoir été la moins généreuse envers Napoléon Bonaparte. C’est logique – il était né sous le signe du Lion, un signe de Feu. Ce n’est pas seulement qu’il ait perdu les batailles sur mer contre l’Angleterre – Aboukir (1798) et Trafalgar (1805). Mais deux de ses défaites sur terre sont liées à la traversée de rivières et à l’impossibilité d’évacuer la totalité de ses troupes – celle de la Bérézina (1812) et celle de Leipzig (1813) où on a fait sauter le pont sur l’Elster trop tôt. Il reste à mentionner aussi la bataille de Waterloo – « water » signifie « eau » en hollandais. A ce propos on peut observer que le nom de son adversaire Arthur Wellesley, duc de Wellington, était un peu mieux en accord avec les vibrations du nom du champ de bataille – sur les huit lettres de « Waterloo », cinq sont contenues dans « Wellington » et cinq dans « Bonaparte », mais les premières lettres de « Waterloo » et « Wellington » sont les mêmes. La ressemblance entre les noms de protagonistes ou lieux historiques est seulement un des thèmes d’intérêt de ce livre qui est la suite du livre [1]. Dans ce derni...

This paper examines how these rules affected the effective military execution of the Rolling Thunder air campaign, as well as their impact on American aircrews and the enemy. During the Vietnam War, many American air commanders were convinced that rigid Rules of Engagement (ROEs) prevented an American aerial victory over North Vietnam during the Rolling Thunder air campaign from 1965-1968. ROEs became so complicated and changed so often that aircrews found it difficult to know what the rules were from day to day. As a result, many vital military targets were either not bombed or were attacked in a very limited and piecemeal fashion....

This thesis focuses on operational-level coalition air force interactions in three conflicts: the Korean War (1950–53), the Persian Gulf War (1990–91), and the Balkan Air Campaign (1992–95). The capability that coalition air forces offer usually benefits the overall effort, while each member’s diverging desires (or will) can degrade overall unity of effort. Analysis of the three conflicts presented here suggests several coalition considerations for air component commanders. Because each case in this thesis had unique elements that may have affected the coalition, a comparison of these elements may also reveal considerations which are important to the air component commander. Finally, the current US programs to train joint force air component commanders and operational-level staffs show promising trends for improving our ability to operate within a coalition....

The years from 1947 through the beginning of the twenty first century witnessed the USAF steadily progress until it became the preeminent air force in the world. With less than 400,000 active duty personnel, the USAF has capabilities and tasks today that were not imaginable six decades ago. The World War II legacy from the Army Air Forces, epitomized in the familiar Air Force song lyrics “off we go into the wild blue yonder, climbing high into the sky!” is not forgotten. However, a strong professional image and unparalleled responsibilities in air and space are far more descriptive of today’s USAF....

Travesía panameña es un libro de carácter divulgativo y científico, donde lo imaginario, aventurero y lo verdadero, se interpolan junto con lo coloquial. En él se relata la herencia humana proveniente del Reino Animal, el origen africano y los viajes épicos que ha desarrollado hasta colonizar el Istmo de Panamá. Travesía panameña intenta retomar las preguntas clásicas filosóficas del ser humano: ¿Quiénes somos? ¿De dónde venimos? Y sus respuestas las integra con la exploración de nuestra historia panameña. Rescata de igual manera, algunos héroes indígenas: Paris, Natá, Escoria, Careta, Comogre, entre otros; de quiénes poco se habla en Panamá. Cuenta, cómo, con tenacidad y persistencia, nuestros hermanos españoles llegaron y contribuyeron a construir nuestra identidad. Las evidencias presentadas con rigurosidad detallan que Panamá prehispánico estaba al mismo nivel cultural que nuestros hermanos europeos colonizadores. La obra integra importantes publicaciones científicas de arqueólogos, genetistas, lingüistas, historiadores y otros científicos, con información de la época narrada por los actores del momento, que vivieron e...

Con esta historia he querido reforzar nuestro linaje africano, quienes realizaron una travesía épica desde África hasta llegar y asentarse en el Istmo de Panamá hace unos 12,500 años. Igualmente, he querido contarles, desde el punto de vista panameño, cómo llegamos aquí desde norte América y, luego, recibimos la influencia de nuestros hermanos europeos. Con este relato, creo haber recopilado las pruebas arqueológicas, genéticas e históricas para entender que el 83% de los panameños del siglo XXI tenemos sangre indígena. Y a pesar, de que hablamos español y nuestra cultura es occidental, sólo el 2% de los panameños conservan aun su acervo genético europeo intacto. Es una afirmación que contrasta, significativamente, con lo que la gente panameña percibe hoy. Por ejemplo, según los datos del Censo 2010, sólo el 12,3% de la población panameña se reconoce de origen indígena. Se ignora además, que el 9% de la población panameña, tiene como lengua materna una variante moderna del chibcha; cuya integridad y antigüedad sobrepasa el castellano que hablamos el resto de la población. También he querido rescatar algunos héroes indíge...

Da es offenbar für die ständig zunehmende Automatisierung keine Grenzen gibt, kann man sich vorstellen, dass Automaten (heuter noch meist als Roboter bezeichnet) sich soweit weiterentwickeln werden, dass ihre Entwicklung von selbst, ohne Mithilfe des Menschen, weitergeht. So gesehen, könnten sie mit der Zeit die Menschen auf der Erde ersetzen. Alles, was der Mensch bisher an Wissen entwickelt hat, könnte dann in den Automaten weit besser aufbewahrt und weiterentwickelt werde. - Die diesbezüglichen überlegungen sind hier zusammengetragen, zum Nutzen aller, die sich schon selbst Gedanken in dieser Richtung gemacht haben....
