The Washington Monument, 666, Fibonacci and the Precession

The Washington Monument, 666, Fibonacci and the Precession

Today, November 13 is the last Solar Eclipse of Baktun 12 of the Maya Calendar.
The Maya Calendar will rollover to 13 Baktun on 12/21/12.

Just in time for 2013.
(a number composed of a 20 and 13)

The number 20 also plays a important roll in the Maya Calendar so the year 2013 is an interesting one!

Mayan Cycle : Composed of / Total Days / Years (approx.)

kin: 1 Day
Uinal: 20 kin / 20 days
tun: 18 uinal / 360 days / 0.986 years
katun: 20 tun / 7200 days / 19.713 years
baktun: 20 katun / 144,000 days / 394.3 years
pictun: 20 baktun / 2,880,000 days / 7,885 years

We can see the cycles of "20" in nearly all of the Calendar's structure.


The Mayans believed at at the conclusion of each pictun cycle (approx. 7,885 years) the Universe is destroyed and re-created. Those with apocalyptic inclinations of Baktun 13 will be relieved to observe that the present cycle will not end until Friday, October 13, 4772 in the Gregorian calendar.

Perhaps a part of the reason that a Friday the 13th is considered unlucky in the psyche of Western culture!

So following in the wake of my blog post on November 11 (Day# 314 of the Gregorian calenar, PI Day) I'm going to explore another famous Monument in the United States of America, The Egyptian Obelisk, The Washington Monument.

The Washington Monument

In this article we're going to explore the interesting mathmatical properties of the monument and hopefully point the reader to their origins.

The Wikipedia page for the Washington Monument tells us:

The monument was damaged during the Virginia earthquake of August 23, 2011 (8/23/11)
The National Park Service estimates the monument will be closed until 2014

Location: Washington D.C.
Coordinates 38°53′22.08377″N 77°2′6.86378″W
Area: 106.01 acres (42.90 ha)


View Larger Map

From my article of 11/9/12:

The Washington monument is in a Vesica Piscis and located on the square (90 degrees) between the Pentagram and the Compasses.


Exterior structure
- Total height of monument: 555.5 ft
- Width at base of monument: 55.5 ft

Capstone
- Marble capstone weight: 3,300 pounds (1.5 t)
- Capstone cuneiform keystone measures 5.16 feet
- Each side of the capstone base: 3 feet

Foundation
- Depth: 36 ft
- Weight: 36,912 long tons (41,341 short tons; 37,504 tonnes) Includes earth and gneiss rubble above the concrete foundation that is within its 126.5-foot (38.6 m) square perimeter.
- Area: 16,002 square feet

The data tells us that the Washington Monument is 555.5 feet tall and 55.5 feet wide at its base.

555.5 feet x 12 inches/ft = 6666 inches tall

55.5 feet x 12 inches/ft = 666 inches wide

Here we find our same Pentagonal and Hexagonal math that we observed in the previous article of 11/9/12!

Surely those numbers weren't randomly chosen! But what could they mean??

Well I'm sure some readers are going to start freaking-out and thinking somehow this is the work of the devil since 666 is in The Bible in REVELATION 13.

Revelation 13:18
King James Version (KJV)
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six (666).

I however will show something even more wonderful. How the numbers and ratios apply to the to very precession of Earth itself!

But first...
What is a "Precession"?!?!

In astronomy, precession refers to any of several gravity-induced, slow and continuous changes in an astronomical body's rotational axis or orbital path. Precession of the equinoxes, perihelion precession, and changes in the tilt of the Earth's axis to its orbit, and the eccentricity of its orbit over tens of thousands of years.


Axial precession is the movement of the rotational axis of an astronomical body, whereby the axis slowly traces out a cone. In the case of Earth, this type of precession is also known as the precession of the equinoxes, lunisolar precession, or precession of the equator. Earth goes through one such complete precessional cycle in a period of approximately 26,000 years or 1° every 72 years, during which the positions of stars will slowly change in both equatorial coordinates and ecliptic longitude. Over this cycle, Earth's north axial pole moves from where it is now, within 1° of Polaris, in a circle around the ecliptic pole, with an angular radius of about 23.5 degrees.

The Precessional wobble is very slow and results in a complete circle approximately every 26,000 years. There is some scientific dispute, due to the enormous timeframe involved, as to the exact length of a precessional wobble but I hold that the period is quite likely to be 25,920 years!


Now let's explore the MATH behind it!


Fibonacci sequence:
Leonardo Fibonacci lived in the thirteenth century. His work on the relationship of mathematics and nature has been applied in physics, astronomy and engineering. Many famous market analysts believe that Fibonacci principles apply equally as well to markets and market psychology.

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987 ...

The golden number is closely connected with the Fibonacci series and has a value of (sqrt(5)-1)/2 = 0.618 yielding the value we now as PHI φ or 1.618 and the ratio golden ratio of 1:1.618

The reason that the Greeks called it the "golden ratio" is that when they used it in the construction of their temples it provided the most pleasing shape. They considered this ratio to be divine.

For example, when you lay out a rectangle such that the sides are 0.618 as high as the width, this seems to look "nice" or visually pleasing when making landscape paintings.

Human heads seem to have this ratio too, the face is approximately 0.618 as wide as it is high.

If you take the Fibonacci ratio of two consecutive terms, they approach the number
0.618

1/2 = 0.5
2/3 = 0.6666
3/5 = 0.6
5/8 = 0.625
8/13 = 0.61538
13/21 = 0.61905
21/34 = 0.61765
34/55 = 0.61818
55/89 = 0.61798
89/144 = 0.618



I encourage all readers to explore more about Fibonacci numbers, the golden ratio, the golden mean, and golden section on their own!



The Pentacle
Of all symmetric geometric shapes, none represent so concisely the principles of PHI than the pentacle or five pointed star within a circle. This is probably so because the ratio of PHI is first derived from the square root of five. Using a compass, draw a circle with five points spaced at exactly 72 degree apart with the first point at the top. Connect the points at 144 degree intervals with straight lines. Notice that both numbers 5 and 144 occur in the first twelve terms of the Fibonacci series.

Jupiter and Saturn
For every complete orbit of Jupiter, Saturn will travel about 144 degree along its orbit. So after 60 years, Jupiter will have made 5 complete orbits while Saturn will have marked out five points, each 144 degrees apart. While doing so Saturn will have made two complete orbits.

Here we see again the numbers 5 and 144 of the Fibonacci series. But whereas the Earth-Venus cycles contain mostly Fibonacci values, the Jupiter-Saturn relationship contains more. It has the patterns of the Fibonacci and the sexagesimal. As the pentacle was shown to have a relationship with PHI, the sexagesimal (hexagram) has a relationship to PI, that other magical number. And, as will be shown, both PHI and PI have a relationship to each other.


The radius of a circle measured in a straight line divides a circle into six parts. Hence the hexagram. The 60 year cycle of Jupiter and Saturn gives rise to the usage of the sexagesimal system and its derivatives.

(from
http://www.glenn.freehomepage.com/writings/Pentacle)

6 x 60 arc minutes or degrees = 360 degrees.

We note however that planet Earth has the odd feature of its orbital circle being 365 days along the 360 degree orbital path around the Sun.

If we take the number of days in a year and divide by PI
365 / 3.14 = 116

We find 116, which we can intrepret as 11/6 or November 6th.
Curiously this was the Presidential Election Day in the USA in 2012.

We can also take it as 1/16 or January 16th.
Lastly as day # 116 which is April 26th in non-leap years.

And of course, to note, 11 x 6 = 66

Day 66 is March 7 in non-leap years.

If we take the number of days in a year and multiply by PHI

365 x .618 = 225.57

Day 225 is August 13. (8/13 in non-leap years and 8/12 in leap years like 2012)

May 20 (5/20) is day 140 from which 225 remain in non-leap years!

But let's look at that the interesting math of that proposed precessional number of 25,920...

25,920 / 288 = 90

25,920 / 216 = 120

25,920 / 144 = 180

25,920 / 72 = 360

25,920 / 60 = 432

25,920 / 40 = 648

25,920 / 30 = 864

25,920 / 20 = 1296

25,920 / 5 = 5184

25,920 / 6 = 4320

25,920 / 4 = 6480

25,920 / 3 = 8640

25,920 / 2 = 12960


Let's focus on:

25,920 / 288 = 90

25,920 / 216 = 120

25,920 / 144 = 180

25,920 / 72 = 360

25,920 / 2 = 12960

12960 / 360 = 36

12960 / 60 = 216

12960 / 2 = 1296

When we explore our sexagesimal products we find:

6x6 = 36

6x6x6 = 216

6x6x6x6 = 1296


Interesting that all of the 3 numbers appear in The Washington Monument!

36 in the foundation.
666 in the number of inches in the width (via 55.5 x 12) and
6666 in the number of inches in the height (via 555.5 x 12)

It's a good time to note that the Washington Monument is created in a 10.01:1 ratio of height to width.

Which becomes very interesting we we take

6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 10 = 12960

12960 is HALF of the precessional number of 25,920.

25,920 / 2 = 12960

We also find that if we use that important "20" of the cycles of the Mayan Calendar we have

25,920 / 20 = 1296

and

6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1296

Since I like to compare numbers to calendar I recognize that the 36th day (6 x 6) of the Gregorian year is February 5th. (2/5)

Which we note the digits of 2/5 are found also in the Fibonacci numbers and PHI calculation:
((sqrt(5))-1)/2 = 0.618

2x5 = 10

and the 2 and 5 pointing us to the 25,000 of 25,920.
and the 5200 tuns of the Mayan Calendar mentioned in my previous article on November 9, 2012

We also note that 4 X 13 = 52
From the reverse of the digits of PI (3.14)

And there's 52 weeks in a gregorian calendar year.

we also note that in the symbol of 25,920 we find

2,5,9,2,0

we can assemble this many ways but let's focus on

2 x 5 x 9 x 2

Since Zero negates it all in multiplication we leave it out...

2 x 5 x 9 x 2 = 180

180 degrees is HALF of a circle of 360 degrees
Taking HALF of the precessional number of 25,920 we find 12,960


which is also

(6 x 6 x 6 x 6) x (2 x 5) = 12,960


WOW! All the important numbers of the Washington Monument leading us to HALF the precessional number of 25,920!


I'd also like to compare the current 44th USA President, re-elected on 11/6/12.

BARACK = 36 in simple gematria, where a=1,b=2,c3...z=26, and 216 in old English gematria (which is found by multiplying simple gematria by 6)

36 = 6 x 6
216 = 6 x 6 x 6

BARACK's birthday is given as August 4th, 1961
August 4th, 1961 is 8/4/61 and was day 216 of the gregorian calendar!

One of the biggest events in the BARACK presidency so-far was the BP oil spill.

B=2
P=16

BP = 2,16

We also note that the Washington Monument was damaged in The Virginia Earthqauke of 2011 on August 23rd.

8/23 is day 235 of the gregorian calendar that year!

23.5 degrees is the "tilt" of the planet Earth!








I think I will continue this exploration later as there's just so much more to write about it all!

Before We Begin:
To those who hate numbers today as much as they did way back on that 3rd grade math exam, I apologize!

But the CALENDAR is based on numbers!

Try to make your way through it and I'll attempt to flesh out the basics in the upcoming articles. Feel free to post a comment about anything you'd like to have made more clear.


Now:
as I've mentioned before on my Twitter Page, (HINT: the "MORE" button at the bottom of the Twitter Page is your friend, click it!!) I'll almost always check the "dates" against the END DATE of the MAYA Calendar which is 12 December 2012
(12.21.12)

and as the planet VENUS was instrumental in the MAYA Calendar I also often check against the FINAL Transit of VENUS of the MAYA Calendar on 5 June 2012 (BEGIN at 6/5/2012 @ 10:13 PM (UTC) as viewed from Washington, DC)
(I use the more appropriate date of '6/5/12' because that's the date when the 2012 Venus Transit will occur in the "Home of the MAYA" which is North, Central, and South America )

I Actually use Gregorian, MAYA, Julian, Hebrew, and Egyptian calendars as my primary "date testing" calendars...
but we'll explore the uses and WHYs of the various Calendar systems in later installments.



(Bloomberg Article)



So now that we have the background...
let's GO dig out some number Syncs:
(and look for "checksums" to know we're on the right track)


Note that the Bloomberg Article above says:
"4" were killed and "38" homes destroyed...

Note the individual digits: 4,3,8

From and including: Thursday, September 9, 2010
To, but not including : Friday, December 21, 2012

is... 834 days! (or 119 weeks)

834 (days)
4,3,8 (4 killed 38 homes destroyed)

119 (weeks) is reverse of 911

reverse the digits
4,3,8 to 8,3,4

and you get the EXACT number days (834) between the PG&E Explosion (of 9/9/2010) in San Bruno, Cal and the END DATE of the MAYA CALendar (12/21/2012)



Mercury NEWS coverage:
"San Mateo County opened emergency centers and a shelter at the San Bruno Recreation Center while activating a reverse 911 message system to alert residents."


also...

"Two brothers, Bob and Ed Pellegrini, live near the house at the center of the explosion, reported to have occurred at Claremont and Glenview drives"

"It looked like hell on earth. I have never seen a ball of fire that huge," Bob PELLEGRINI said.


Something struck me as odd about those "brothers",
and it wasn't ONLY the fact that there's "19" words in the paragraph:
"It looked like hell on earth. I have never seen a ball of fire that huge," Bob PELLEGRINI said.

so we investigate possibilities by searching (google, bing, etc) for "Pellegrini"


We find:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giovanni_Antonio_Pellegrini
so..

PELLIGRINI = 4/29/1675

1+6+7+5 = 19 (1+9 = 10)

For our "19" so we continue looking at G.A. Pellegrini's Birthday

16+75 = 91 (9+1=10)

aha... "19" reversed is "91"

(While we're looking, we make a quick check to "2012" or /12
4/29/75 (works)...
4/29/12

So now we look at "4/29" as related to this event date:

We start with this year, 2010 (or /10 as a 2 digit year on a date)
(Recall: we found a "10" already from the '19' as "1+9")


From and including: Thursday, April 29, 2010
To, but not including : Thursday, September 9, 2010
is 133 days (or 4 months, 11 days or 19 weeks) excluding the end date

4,11 = 4,2

What's the posted at "time" on that Bloomberg article in the picture above?
Right.. 4:11

Early story at SF Gate
Deputy San Mateo County Coroner April Florent said "there are deaths, but we do not have a number right now." She said it would take awhile to compile a count because investigators must go from house to house.


APRIL 29 (4/29) is day number 119 of the Gregorian Calendar

4,38 = 4 , 11 or 4,2
4,29 = 4 , 11 or 4,2



The time of the Explosion was 6:15 pm (or 18:15)

18 + 15 = 33

The official time of 6:15 was taken from the ORIGINAL (not the now UPDATED) article at
MERCURY News

Check out the photo slideshow of the area at MERCURY NEWS


Did someone say MERCURY (aka the Greek Hermes)??
Right... that was ME!


PG&E is, of course, an anagram of "PEG"
"PEG" is the nickname of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

The BLOOMBERG article above shows us the same "6, 15" info, as above, in this way:
"...The Pipeline ruptured at about 6pm local time starting a fire that spread rapidly over an area of 15 acres..."

6 pm and 15
6 pm in 24hr time is 18:00
18pm + 15 acres = 33



From 9.9.2010 forward to the next 4.29 (4/29/2011) is 33 weeks

AND...

From the 4.29 of 2012
4.29.12 to 12.21.2012 (maya calendar end date) is 33 weeks

So...

SAINT JaSON's Day, (Day number 119 of the Gregorian CALendar)...
4/29 is "The CENTER" (see Mercury NEWS Pellegini above)


If you haven't yet caught on...
12/21

Try this:
12 + 21 = 33

3x3 (3 squared) = 9

"a thunderous explosion rocked the Crestmoor community in the area of Skyline Boulevard and Sneath Lane about 6:15 p.m." - Mercury NEWS

Route 35 (Skyline Blvd) and Route 82 (Sneath Ln) (West of i-280)

35 = 3 + 5 = 8
82 = 8 + 2 = 10 = 1

81 = 9 x 9
(or 9^2 = 81)
(9 squared = 81)
(Explosion happened on "9/9")

35 + 82 = 117 ((1+1)+7 or 2,7)

See also 117 on Wikipedia


82 - 35 = 47 = 4+7 = 11

Recall: West of i-280

4 x 7 = 28


Remember the SAN JOSE MINE COLLAPSE in Chile?
The one with the "33" trapped miners that happened on 8/5/2010 at 14:00 (EDT).

Maybe this way...
"35" days before the Explosion on Skyline Blvd (Cal State Route "35")?

The 33 miners that were finally located "17" days after the collapse on 8.22.10

Recall: Cal State Route 82 is Sneath Lane.

State Route 35 (SR 35) in the U.S. State of California, generally known as Skyline Boulevard, is a 2-lane road running along the western ridge of Silicon Valley in California. It runs from
Highway 17 to San Francisco at State Route 1.

The Silicon Valley area is often referred to simply
as "SAN JOSE"
SAN JOSE is spanish for Saint JOSEPH, Jesus's (Hey Zeus) earthly father.
Saint Joseph is one of the saints that gets a double Feast Day. One on 3/19 and then a second one (2 days after 4/29) on MAY DAY or 5/1 (aka the other LABOUR DAY.)

As a matter of fact, I posted an article on MAY DAY back in 2009


Trivia:
Just West of Skyline Boulevard is San Andreas Lake, outside the city limits, which gave its name to the famous San Andreas Fault in 1895
The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform fault that runs a length of roughly 810 miles (1,300 km) through California in the United States.

810 = 9 x 9 x 10 (maybe it's easier to read this way... 9/9/10)

We'll explore the deeper connections and how one thing points to another in further installments in this "CAL-Ender Mysteries" series.

Happy PI Day - Hey, Thanks for Coming Around (UPDATE)

Official PI (partial):





Ancient PI ( π ):
22/7
3.142857142857142857142857142857142857142857......


Today, 3/14 is officially designated as "PI DAY"

Pi Day and Pi Approximation Day are two holidays held to celebrate the mathematical constant π (pi) (in the mm/dd date notation: 3/14); since 3, 1 and 4 are the first three digits of π. March 14 is also the birthday of Albert Einstein and the two events are sometimes celebrated together.

Pi Approximation Day is observed on July 22, because of Archimedes' popular approximation of π being 22/7. However, this may be considered misleading, as all cited dates are "approximation days" (as π is an irrational number) and 22/7 is actually a closer approximation of π than 3.14 is. Typically, March 14 is more popular for countries using the month/day format and the 22nd of July is more popular for countries using the day/month format.

Sometimes Pi Minute is also celebrated; this occurs twice on March 14 at 1:59 a.m. and 1:59 p.m. If π is truncated to seven decimal places, it becomes 3.1415926; making March 14 at 1:59:26 p.m., Pi Second (or sometimes March 14, 1592 at 6:53:58 a.m.). If 24-hour time is used, Pi Minute occurs once, on March 14 (3/14) at 1:59.

There are a large variety of ways of celebrating Pi Day and most of them include eating pie and discussing the relevance of π. The first Pi Day celebration was held at the San Francisco Exploratorium in 1988, with staff and public marching around one of its circular spaces, then consuming fruit pies. The museum has since added pizza to its Pi Day menu.

The founder of Pi Day was Larry Shaw, a now-retired physicist at the Exploratorium who still helps out with the celebrations.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology often mails its acceptance letters to be delivered to prospective students on Pi Day.

Some also celebrate alternative Pi Days and/or Pi Approximation Days in addition to the two listed above; these can fall on any of several dates:

March 4: When 14% of the 3rd month has elapsed.

April 26: The Earth has traveled two radians of its orbit on this day (April 25 in leap years), reckoning from the start of the calendar year on January 1. Thus the entire orbit divided by the distance traveled equals π; two radians equals 1⁄π of our orbit. This is celebrated exactly on the 41st second of the 23rd minute of the 4th hour on April 26 or the 116th day. (In leap years, it is celebrated exactly on the 3rd second of the 2nd minute of the 12th hour on April 25 or the 116th day.) This celebration is not a Pi Approximation Day.

[the second occurs 116 days later on August 20, (8/20 day 232) - astute observers will note that the 2 days fall in the only 2 months of the calendrical year to begin with the letter "A" in the english language...
Letter "A" is symbolic representation of the COMPASSES, a tool used to draw a perfect circle.]

November 10: The 314th day of the year
(or 11/9 (mm/dd - USA) or 9/11 (dd/mm - EU/CANADA) in leap years).

December 21, 1:13 p.m.: The 355th day of the year (December 20 in leap years), celebrated at 1:13 for the Chinese approximation 355/113.

On Pi Day 2004, Daniel Tammet recited 22,514 decimal digits of π.

On 12 March 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a non-binding resolution (HRES 224), recognizing March 14, 2009 as National Pi Day.

So a big Thank You to the House and Resolution number 224 (HRES 224) for the USA National PI DAY!

On Pi Day 2010, Google celebrated by changing the logo on the search engine's home page into a Pi related sketch up featuring Pi and other mathematical symbols.

Tiger Woods - Tareq and Michaele and the Math of the Epiphany (UPDATE 12.02.2009)

(More Updates 12.02.2009)




Tiger Woods the Titan of Golf...

Tiger's (read as "Orange/Gold") Crash (and the Salahi's "Crash") has many "predictor" earmarks...

Tiger Woods crashed into Wood (tree).
Wood is where paper (read as "paper money" / debt notes) comes from.

The offcial police report reads, "DRIVER HAD JUST PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AT HIS RESIDENCE ... AS V1 BEGAN TO DRIVE ON DEACON CIRCLE, V1 STRUCK A FIRE HYDRANT. THE FRONT OF V1 THEN STRUCK A TREE ... THE DRIVER WAS TRANSPORTED TO HEALTH CENTRAL HOSPITAL. THE CRASH REMAINS UNDER INVESTIGATION AND CHARGES ARE PENDING."

In the semiotic world scene you could say:

that Gold/debt notes will be allowed to soar to all new highs before "THEY" (London/Wall St financial Wizards) crash its value in the market to take more of everyones' money yet again -
just like "THEY" did with the credit card system and the home/mortgage system.





Tareq and Michaele Salahi
Tiger Woods

Jake Kotze's WE/3 spinner of W,M,E and 3

TW (20 23)


It is interesting to note that given the White House India Dinner Crashers ("T"areq and "M"ichaele Salahi's - M spinner to W) and the date 11/24 (328th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar - 37 days remaining until the end of the year) and the (33 yrs old) "T"iger "W"oods crash of 02:25 (probably 02:23 am!) of 11/27 - November 27 is the 331st day of the year in the Gregorian calendar - 34 days remaining until the end of the year.


If we start at 11/24/2009, the date of the Salahi's White House India Dinner Crash, and add 43 (20 + 23) days we arrive at the magical mystical date of January 6. (or 1 month and 13 days later - 113)

January 6 is last day of the "Orthodox 12 days of Christmas" and The Epiphany
The Epiphany Season, in some parts of the world, carries through until February 2 (aka Candlemas / Groundhog Day).

and 2010 is the year of the TIGER in the Chinese Animal Zodiac system.


The previous WOOD TIGER years of the last century occured in 1914 and 1974.

Interestingly enough, the year 1914 was the year that World War I started (the end of which is commemorated on 11.11).

The year 2010, beginning in February, will be the year of the METAL TIGER (Gold Tiger)


With February 2 linking to Golf, the Metal Tiger, Candlemas and Groundhog Day...

(Remember Jake Kotze's WE/3 spinner!!)

From Wikipedia on Tiger Woods

Eldrick Tont "Tiger" Woods (born December 30, 1975) is an American professional golfer among the most successful of all time. Currently the World No. 1, he was the highest-paid professional athlete in 2008, having earned an estimated $110 million from winnings and endorsements.

Woods has won fourteen professional major golf championships, the second highest of any male player, and 71 PGA Tour events, third all time. He has more career major wins and career PGA Tour wins than any other active golfer. He is the youngest player to achieve the career Grand Slam, and the youngest and fastest to win 50 tournaments on tour.


... and Tiger had his "accident" on 11.27.2009

11.9.11




UPDATE:

Bangladesh ferry toll at 40, but set to rise: police

NAZIRPUR, Bangladesh — Bangladeshi rescue workers on Sunday pulled more bodies from a capsized ferry as police said at least 40 people had died and warned that "scores" more corpses remained in the vessel.
Local police chief Zakir Hossain told AFP that seven more victims were retrieved from one of the cabins that was locked when the crowded MV Coco-4 overturned late on Friday.
The triple-decked ferry, which had a capacity of 665, was overcrowded with more than 1,000 passengers and began taking in water when it came into dock, Hossain said.
The dead included at least 20 children and 11 women, he said.
The accident occurred on Friday around midnight as the MV Coco-4, one of the country's largest inland vessels, was approaching the dock on Bhola island. ...READ MORE at original story...

11.27.2009 - the headline reads "Bangladesh ferry toll at 40"

Bangladesh, next-door neighbor to West Bengal, India

The count from 11.27.2009 ..to.. 1.6.2010 is 40 days.


Recall that 11.27.2009 = 11.9.11 from earlier in this post...

Well... the tabloids are now reporting that Tiger Woods and his wife Elin Nordegren may have been having a (moderately violent) argument just before his now infamous "Crash".



Rachel Uchitel

The rumours are that the argument stemmed from the allegation that Tiger Woods may have been having an affair with New York socialite, Rachel Uchitel, although Rachel has denied the rumours.

It is also an interesting connection to the story that Rachel Uchitel's fiance, James Andrew ("Andy") O'Grady, died in the South Tower WTC attacks on 9/11 !


Left: Rachel mourning fiance Andy.
Right: Rachel with nightclub owner Jason Strauss.

The Chicago Sun Times is reporting that the tape of call to 911 regarding Tiger's accident should be released Today (Sun 11/29/2009 - 11.11.11!!)

The Florida Highway Patrol said it expects to release tapes of the 911 call on Sunday, and it will investigate the crash that left Woods' mouth bloodied as a traffic accident.

curious and curiouser...





It is also unclear at this time whether Tiger will be playing in his Chevron World Challenge 2009 golf tournament ...

Chevron Corp. is the child of the antitrust breakup of John D Rockefeller's Standard Oil Company in
1911.



Sunday, 11.29.2009 (aside from the resultant 11.11.11 !!) is the 333rd day of 2009 (32 days remain in 2009).


The Epiphany Season, in some parts of the world, lasts 40 days from The Epiphany of January 6 until February 2 (aka Candlemas - The Feast of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple by Mary / Groundhog Day).

February 2 is the 33rd day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. There are 332 days remaining until the end of the year in 2010 (333 days in leap years like 2012).


UPDATE:



(Excerpt from The MIRROR regarding Tiger Woods and Jaimee Grubbs)

Tiger Woods’ wife blasted his mistress in a furious phone call when she found out about their affair.

Elin Nordegren phoned Jaimee Grubbs from a blocked number. When the 24-year-old cocktail waitress asked who Elin was, she replied: “You know who this is because you’re f***ing my husband.”

Details of the phone call emerged as Woods made an astonishing apology last night, admitting cheating on Elin, 29, and letting down his family.

The golfer admitted to “transgressions” after his car crash sparked a string of allegations he had slept with other women.
...

Woods allegedly called Grubbs three days before the crash to warn her his wife had “gone through his phone and may call you”.

A voice that sounds like Woods, said: “Hey, it’s Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favour. Can you please take your name off your phone?

“My wife went through my phone and maybe calling you. So if you can, please take your name off that. Just have it as a number on the voicemail. You got to do this for me. Huge. Quickly. Bye.”

Last night the message was posted online. Meanwhile Grubbs has said: “He told me last month we will always be together.

“He gave me the impression he and his wife had separate rooms.”

She claimed he texted her in September to say: “I will wear you out soon. You just need some attention from me.”

The last time they met was two months ago. She claimed: “We cuddled, watched Angels and Demons, then had sex. It was very romantic.”

and RadarOnline.com says that they have evidence that Rachel Uchitel's trip to Australia, that she describes as just a coincidence and the National Enquirer alleges that she went there to meet up with Tiger, was actually booked and paid for by Tiger Woods' organization.



... and the synchs keep on flowing!

TMZ.com is reporting:
Former Boss of Tiger's Wife Unloads on Golfer
Posted Dec 2nd 2009 7:28PM by TMZ Staff

A Swedish golfer who once employed Tiger Woods' wife -- Elin Nordegren -- and even introduced her to Tiger, just blasted him after a round today, saying he hopes Elin uses a driver next time instead of a 3-iron.

Jesper Parnevik employed both Elin and her twin sister as nannies in 2000, introducing Elin to Tiger the following year. Parnevik told a reporter he feels "especially sad since me and my wife were at fault for hooking her up with him."

Parnevik says Tiger may have taken his Nike credo too far and that next time, "Maybe not just do it."



Jesper Parnevik played himself, as the surprise stand-in golfer, in the movie
"Who's Your Caddy", which critics blasted as a "terrible rip-off" of Caddyshack (noted above).


From Wikipedia:

"Parnevik's nickname on tour is Spaceman, he resides in Jupiter, Florida, United States."

6 Days of Creation - the Ring, the Sphere, and Jimi Hendrix

My Apollo G's in advance to the non-mathematical readers once again!

But this is an excellent one for a Friday the 13th!
Love and Unity to you all.
(and besides tomorrow is 3/14, my day for pie!)


For this article you will need the background of my article
Let me introduce you to...


(and Let me preface all this by telling you that I'm not Jewish)


and also a very basic knowledge of Zohar & GenIsis/OT/Torah.
(though this post is applicable to MORE than Zohar, OT and Genesis - any Physicists in the readership may find even more to it!)

Looking at the very first word of Genesis,
BeReSHiTH

which can become
BeReSHiTH to BaRa-SHiTH

BARA-SHITH
which means
"He made 6"


Now we consider our ABC's - the letters/characters
22 characters of the Hebrew Alephbet
7 days of Creation (6 +1 OF REST)

22 / 7 = 3.142857142857142857142857142857142857...

and that's how REAL men bake Pi π
(LOL)

We can see in that ancient pi π a repeating sequence of:

"142857"

and now to the "BOOK"

In the Beginning was the Word...
and the void...

142857 x 0 = 0


142857 x 1 = 142857
142857 x 2 = 285714
142857 x 3 = 428571
142857 x 4 = 571428
142857 x 5 = 714285
142857 x 6 = 857142


on the Seventh day he rested as his work was complete...


142857 x 7 = 999999

(You'll note there's SIX nines there)

Let's explore some more curiosities of this wonderful number 142857:

1 + 4 + 2 + 8 + 5 + 7 = 27 = 9

142 + 857 = 999


14 + 28 + 57 = 99


1 4 2
8 5 7
- - -
9 9 9


The Number 9, - the final of all the single digits.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9


Now we turn our thought to 3 dimensions

and imagine these numbers around the surface of a sphere or better yet a ring

we know it is these figures derived from the 2 dimensional
circle because the original calculation gave us PI (22/7)

(We will also find the formation of Magen DaViD)
(I'll add some graphics to illustrate the 3D and rings later)


(Synchromystics will recognize the 15, 24, 33, 42, 51 appearing)


Now we can imagine we are holding our ring(s) with the 142857 sequence on it at eye level...

Or even something like this:


142857 x 1 = 142857

2 character places turned forward (clockwise)...
OR
4 character places turned back (counter clockwise)...

(2+4 = 6)






142857 x 2 = 285714

5 character places turned forward...
OR
1 character places turned back...

(5+1 = 6)


142857 x 3 = 428571

3 character places turned forward...
OR
3 character places turned back...

(3+3 = 6)


142857 x 4 = 571428

1 character places turned forward...
OR
5 character places turned back...

(1+5 = 6)


142857 x 5 = 714285

4 character places turned forward...
OR
2 character places turned back...

(2+4 = 6)


142857 x 6 = 857142


We find the cycling of the

2+4
1+5
3+3
5+1
4+2

and at seven it all changes so we've come full circle and we rest.

The digit 6 rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise by 180 degrees (6 x 30) gives us the digit 9

6 9

Now why did I bring up 6 and 9
Aside from the Six Nines at the 7th turn/day!

6th turn and 8+1
8 in the "1"'s position (where the "1" was when we first began our turning)
8+1 = 9

(Our little number ring is 180 degrees from where we started!)



Here's the CYCLING of 142857 that we witnessed while turning ...

142857 x 1 = 142857
142857 x 2 = 285714
142857 x 3 = 428571
142857 x 4 = 571428
142857 x 5 = 714285
142857 x 6 = 857142

142857 x 7 = 999999 (the 7th turn = the 7th day meets completion in the all "9" result which is the final of the 0-9 digits)




6 x 30 = 180
(6 x 60 = 360)

and J H's "If 6 was 9" plays in the background...
(JH JaH, IeH)

9 = NINE
N+I+N+E = 42
9 = 4+2 = 6

If '6' was '9'

Much more to come on this topic in future posts.
But for now, we can enjoy Jimi's tunez...






And let me introduce you to the first MAN / AMN
otherwise known as ADAM / ATOM




“If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have the Key to the UNIVERSE.”

Let Me Introduce You to...

... the Number 142857


"Oh, Strange Eye not MATH!", you say!
"Not math - MA'ATh - the Mystical numbers for all truth seekers", I reply.

and besides...
synchromystics like to point out numbers
(the underlying fabric of the Multiverse!)

Have You Met the Number 142857 ?

If you've never met before,
let me take this moment to introduce you
to a very mystical number:

142857


it is found through ANY number not evenly divisible by the number 7

the result is a repeating sequence or cycle of the digits 1,4,2,8,5,7

x.142857...

Such as how the ancient Egyptians calculated the value for "Pi":

22 / 7 = 3.142857142857142857142857142857...

3."142857" "142857" "142857" "142857" "142857"...

Note that the individual digits never stray from 1,4,2,8,5,7
...until we multiply it by by a single 7 (one Seven)!


142857 x 1 = 142857

142857 x 2 = 285714

142857 x 3 = 428571

142857 x 4 = 571428

142857 x 5 = 714285

142857 x 6 = 857142


142857 x 7 = 999999


142 + 857 = 999

14 + 28 + 57 = 99



The famous "Number 9" makes an appearance.
The Number 9, - the final of all single digits.
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

1 + 4 + 2 + 8 + 5 + 7 = 27
Dual 7's / Two Sevens (77) in mystical math.


The keen-eyed synchromystic number spotters in the readership may already have noticed a few curiosities about this mystic number...

..but for those that haven't, let me point out a big one for you.

The "stage of transition" (from digits 1,4,2,8,5,7 to 999999 - note that there's SIX Nines!) occurs from the 6th to 7th multipliers.

If you multiply the numbers 6 and 7
(6 x 7) and you "don't panic", you get the synchromystic number 42.



42, the "Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything"

Some of the mathematicians in the readership may note that in
Base 13, 6 x 9 = 42
(recall the six nines I pointed out above)
But Douglas Adams kept it mysterious and joked about this observation, saying: "I may be a sorry case, but I don't write jokes in base 13."

Douglas Adams was asked many times during his career why he chose the number 42. Many theories were proposed, but he rejected them all.
On November 3, 1993, he gave an answer on alt.fan.douglas-adams:

" The answer to this is very simple. It was a joke. It had to be a number, an ordinary, smallish number, and I chose that one. Binary representations, base thirteen, Tibetan monks are all complete nonsense. I sat at my desk, stared into the garden and thought '42 will do.' I typed it out. End of story. "

" There are no jokes in synchromysticism, even when there are! "
- Strange Eye (2009)

Now with that info in mind we turn our eye towards the
the 6 Stepped Pyramid of Saqqara, Eqypt rising 60 meters above the desert floor.



The Institute of Egyptian Art & Archaeology at U Memphis tells us:

The Step Pyramid is the first known monumental structure made of stone anywhere in the world. As its name suggests, it is a series of six levels of stone decreasing in size as they ascend to about 200 feet/60 meters in height. Until this time, mastabas had been the principal form of tomb architecture. A mastaba (Arabic for "bench" / "seat") is a low rectangular structure which was built over a shaft which descended to the burial location. The Step Pyramid originally began as a mastaba, and it may have been visualized as a series of mastaba shapes, decreasing in size, stacked one on top of another. Whatever the origin, it creates an impressive geometrical form rising from the floor of the desert.

A good egyptian tour guide will often ask this question of visitors,
"Why do you think they only built 6 levels?"


From WIKIPEDIA

The step pyramid at Saqqara was designed by Imhotep for King Djoser (c.2667-2648 BC). It is the oldest complete hewn-stone building complex known in history. It is also the location of the newly opened (in 2006) Imhotep Museum. It is also where the tomb of King Menes, the first pharaoh of Egypt lies.

Imhotep (from a statue in the Louvre)

If you've seen my comments on articles at other blogs like "The Secret Sun" you'll see that I've mentioned The Pyramid Texts

The Pyramid texts were written on the walls of the complex at Saqqara, Egypt and are the some of the oldest writings in the world.

You can read one translation of The Pyramid Texts here

Another famous translation is by Raymond O. Faulkner

UPDATE:

Personally, I've always taken the origin/etymology of the word MATH to have been from the word MA'AT in Egypt. I know we typically stop at the Greeks, but afterall some Greek knowledge came out of their interactions and relations with the Egyptians.

gr. mathematos = MA'AT-hematos
