| | LINKS FOR CREATIONISTS - INSEPARABLE CONCEPTS |
| | Thus, secure from any credible attack on their Copernican "science" front, the new Darwinian "science" offensive could then link hands with the "established scientific truth" of a rotating, orbiting Earth and forge boldly ahead toward the goal of pushing the Bible completely off stage as a repository of Truth. | | | And, if the Bible could be wrong about the earth not moving, it could be wrong on other aspects of the creation, on Noah's Flood, the Virgin Birth, Heaven... | | | And equally fundamental and inescapable is the fact that making the earth rotate and orbit the sun was essential to all the rest of the success that both terrestrial and extraterrestrial evolutionism have achieved...that indeed none of this success was possible without acceptance of the factless assumptions upon which Copernicanism is based |

| | Rare earth magnets for fun and profit |
| | Apart from making all of your magnetic science experiments work the way they're meant to (NIBs make it easier to push a grape, and they bounce better, too), there are useful things you can do with rare earth magnets. | | | They're commonly just referred to as "neodymium" or "rare earth" magnets, and this composition is both more powerful and cheaper than the previous king of the permanent magnet world, samarium cobalt. | | | Quite big rare earth magnets can be had, if you want more field range. |

| | Before and After Science |
| | Brian Eno's "Before and After Science", his last song-based album until the about-to-be-released (June, 2005) "Another Day on Earth" is in many ways the album you would hope it would be, reflective of his past, pointing in some ways to the future, very much texture-oriented music. | | | BEFORE AND AFTER SCIENCE is one of his very finest albums. | | | Although BEFORE AND AFTER SCIENCE was Eno's fourth (and up to the present, last-one fears that he may never attempt another) vocal album, it is possibly his most pop oriented. |

| | Chico News and Review - Lead News - June 26, 2003 |
| | The Chico State University campus and the downtown were invaded this past weekend by a mass of name-tag-wearing, backpack-toting scientists and students from all over the world who share at least one thing in common: a serious interest in the evolution of life on Earth. | | | Intelligent Design Theory (IDT), she said, claims to be a science that offers a rational alternative to Darwinian evolution, but critics view it as a modern form of creationism, without scientific merit. | | | She also attempted to explain Intelligent Design Theory and how lawmakers and others are adopting, incorrectly, it as a valid theory of science that should be taught in the classroom. |

| | Rare Earth Hypothesis |
| | Modern science suggests that Earth's composition and stability are extraordinarily rare. | | | Their book, "Rare Earth" (Springer-Verlag) is producing whoops of criticism and praise, with some detractors saying that the authors have made their own simplistic assumptions about the adaptability of life forms while others call it "brilliant" and "courageous." [ | | | If the “RARE EARTH” hypothesis turns out to be true then it greatly increases the significance of loss, each time a plant or animal is driven to extinction and strengthens the responsibility for humans to be good stewards of the planet. |

| | Pre-Release Promotional Blurb for 'The Songs of Distant Earth' |
| | It kept circling inside my head, as Sputnik was to go around the Earth six months later, and the only way of exorcising it was to sit down and hammer out a 12,000-word novella, which was printed the next year in an American science-fiction magazine. | | | I was particularly impressed by the music he wrote for 'The Killing Fields', and now, having played the CD-Rom of 'The Songs of Distant Earth', I feel he has lived up to my expectations. | | | While working on 'The Songs of Distant Earth', this became a two-way process with some of the images I had created helping me to imagine the music. |

| | Four years ago, Oldfield left Virgin and signed with Warner, releasing Tubular Bells II and two months ago, Songs Of Distant Earth, inspired by the science fiction novel of the same name by ARTHUR C. "I wanted to relaunch my career," said Oldfield, who estimates his own album sales at 25 million copies. | | | Limited copies of his new album, Songs Of Distant Earth, contain a multi-media CD-ROM that he assembled midway through recording sessions, and Oldfield says he's excited by new computer technology. | | | A master multi-instrumentalist who has released 19 albums, the Reading-born Oldfield started his career at the age of 14 in SALLYANGIE, a folk duo formed with his sister SALLY that released one album in 1968. |

| | Rare Earth hypothesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The fossil record is thought to show that a stable ecology has been reached on Earth several times, first just after the Cambrian Explosion. | | | In the Earth, the cores of the original planet and an impacting body are thought to have merged to form an over-massive core that produces a powerful magnetic field to protect against solar radiation. | | | The rare Earth hypothesis is a response to the Fermi paradox which explains why we might expect a planet such as Earth to be very rare. |

| | eBay - CD: Earth A.D. (UPC: 017046192323) |
| | Influenced by the frenzied vocals and blitzkrieg guitars of the burgeoning hardcore movement, the Misfits adapted their sound (think Elvis meets The Cramps at a doo-wop show) without diluting the poppy hooks, preoccupation with science fiction and horror films, and "whooa-oooh!" vocals that served as the band's trademarks. | | | One of the most brutal and uncompromising records of the 1980s, EARTH A.D. stood as a fitting coda to phase one of the Misfits' career and presaged the darker, occult-influenced work Glenn Danzig would explore with Samhain and Danzig. | | | Although songs as brutal as "Demonomania" and "Death Comes Ripping" are sure to shock those attracted to the Misfits for their goofier material, EARTH A.D. does have its share of tuneful moments. |
