It is proposed that gravitational fields may be interpreted as a variation in the relative available driving power (Watts) of the Electromagnetic, Zero-Point Field (ZPF). It is shown that variations in the relative power are covariant with variations in the coordinate speed of light as measured by distant observers in unaltered space-time. Gravitational time dilation and length contraction may then be interpreted as a loss of power in the ZPF. It is shown that an amplification of the ZPF is necessary to drive inflation and achieve faster than light speeds. This principle of matter and power is utilized to show the form of matter required, may be interpreted as a reduced ground state equilibrium energy density of ordinary matter. Associated with an increased ground state energy and volume, caused by the increased power of the ZPF. This property is utilized to derive a new type of electromagnetic warp drive that can eliminate the effects of time dilation and length contraction that oc...
V6 under construction In this version I explicitly compute the induced localized gravity warp near fields for a parallel plate capacitor C with meta-material filling and for a solenoid inductance L with a meta-material core forming an LRC series circuit in every nano-scale pixel. The oscillation need not be damped in the Frohlich "active" laser mode under external pumping into a non-equilibrium macro-quantum coherent state. Remember, no human on Earth at this time in history has written the equations I am now writing. (I mean the later equations in this paper beyond Feynman's equations I start with.) I am being led by the nose by La Forza del Destino to The Truth about Tic Tac propulsion and control. Einstein's classical gravity ("geometrodynamical") field equations are local in space-time. Feynman used scale-independent Fourier transforms to get his propagators in QED. Mikhail Altaisky in Moscow, Russia has shown that the use of Fourier transforms is not adequate and leads to spurious infinities in the equations that must be "renormalized" away. Feynman told me personally in his office at Cal Tech in the 1960s that renormalization was a "shell game" he was never happy with. Feynman apparently was not aware of scale-dependent wavelet transforms which really only came into prominence after his premature death in late 1980s. The Tic Tac low-energy low-speed v << c warp drive depends on time-changing inhomogeneous anisotropic meta-material electromagnetic resonances emergent in external pumping to the Frohlich non-equilibrium macro-quantum coherent collective mode boson condensate phase 1 in 3D+1 interior bulk and an analogous anyonic topological 2D +1 surface collective mode analog whose details need investigation. These problems are too ambitious for the present paper needing a team of theorists to properly solve. I will here make a crude approximation, a toy model, not meant to be quantitatively realistic, but simply to pave the way to what needs to be done. The weak field limit is adequate to explain Tic Tac Close Encounters with US Naval Battle Groups because the radii of spacetime curvature at Earth's surface are 1AU (10^13 cm). 1 These are room temperature super fluids and superconductors pumped far off thermodynamic equilibrium.
Certain classes of higher dimensional models suggest that the Casimir Effect is a candidate for the cosmological constant. In this paper we demonstrate that a sufficiently advanced civilization could, in principal, manipulate the radius of the extra dimension to locally adjust the value of the cosmological constant. This adjustment could be tuned to generate an expansion/contraction of spacetime around a spacecraft creating an exotic form of field-propulsion. Due to the fact that spacetime expansion itself is not restricted by relativity, a faster-than-light 'warp drive' could be created. Calculations of the energy requirements of such a drive are performed and an 'ultimate' speed limit, based on the Planckian limits on the size of the extra dimensions is found.
In this article, considering the work referenced in [16] that allows for emulation motion up to ¼ of the speed of light, appropriate modifications have been considered where by classes of metamaterials or ordinary magneto-electric materials can be used for an emulation Alcubierre drive that permits superluminal motion.
2023, ENGINEERING A WARP DRIVE USING QUANTUM GRAVITY AND A NEW INTERPRETATION OF GENERAL RELATIVITY – AN ENGINEERING MODEL
For engineering purposes, it is proposed that gravitational fields may be interpreted as a reduction in the relative available driving power (Watts) of the Electromagnetic, Zero-Point Field. It is shown that variations in the relative power are covariant with variations in the coordinate speed of light as measured by a distant observer, outside the gravitational field. Gravitational time dilation and length contraction may then be interpreted as a loss of power from the interaction between matter and the zero-point field. It is hypothesized that the loss of power is due to increased radiative damping within matter due to Larmor radiation. The relative radiative damping factor affects the relative ground state energy of the quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator such that, the mean-square fluctuations of matter reproduce the behavior attributed to and resulting from the space-time metric of General Relativity. From this principle, the phenomena observed by a distant observer that are due to gravity may be reproduced from the variable relative damping factor acting on the quantum harmonic oscillator. Utilizing the techniques of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance to stimulate Larmor radiation, experiments may be conducted that may pave the way for the creation of breakthrough technologies, such as Artificial gravity, Antigravity and Warp Drive.

Jack Sarfatti adastra1@icloud.com Under Construction April 13, 2018 This version v13 uses a more precise notation closer to experiment in which the Frohlich pump power spectrum must be integrated over a range of frequencies and wave vectors. The powers of frequency and wave vectors in the integrands are determined by dimensional analysis. It also corrects an error in my dimensional analysis in v3 and adds new content on statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. The many-body Green’s function formalism is introduced for Aharonov’s two-state vector locally retrocausal quantum mechanics, but still without the Sutherland post-quantum wave action <—> Bohm particle reaction Lagrangian. The linear response generalized susceptibility of the room temperature superconductor and other non-equilibrium pumped Frohlich coherent many-particle systems is introduced. The implication for Einsteins general relativity for achieving rapid interstellar travel without time dilation is also introduced. Additional comments based on email exchange with Hal Puthoff on April 6, 2018. Appendix A on wavelet time-frequency phase space detector signal analysis added on April 9, 2018. Equations using Feynman's weak field approximation to Einstein's gravity field equation are introduced for practical metric engineering. Abstract I present the basic equation to achieve room temperature and higher electrical superconductivity and other macro-quantum coherent effects in any many-boson system if the correct resonant coupling can be found for some range of frequencies and wave vectors even when the electromagnetic Frohlich pump is in the non-radiative near field of Glauber states of virtual photons with all three polarizations transverse and longitudinal.

We have established mathematically that there exists the potential to realize a positive required energy density in order to warp spacetime. By using a complex shaping function where the imaginary part is greater than the real part, the solution to the expression for the required energy density is positive. This ultimately makes it feasible to selectively bend spacetime for the purposes of propelling a craft.We have devised an experiment that utilizes a material having the properties of possessing a greater imaginary component to the dielectric constant than real component. This material, introduced into a resonant cavity, sets up the conditions to realize a shaping function in the form as is utilized in the Alcubierre’s metric. We have established a potential structure from which to build better experiments.

This paper will examine the ways in which the prevailing representation of the legal practices and institutions related to the management and control of Indigenous fami-lies and children in Australia shifted over time from “welfare” to “cultural gen-ocide,” and how that shift can be better understood by drawing on Norbert Elias’s understanding of civilizing and decivilizing processes. Policies and practices which were understood from the 19th century onwards to be aimed at promoting the welfare of Indigenous children in the interests of increasing civilization came to be regarded from the 1980s onwards as essentially vio-lent and indeed barbaric. This was due to them being a social engineering project for the gradual and systematic annihilation of Aboriginal cultural identity, to the point of being consistent with the definition of genocide in the UN Genocide Convention, albeit as “cultural genocide.” However, the term remains heavily contested, with views divided between those who think gen-ocide should be restricted to deliberate physical killing, and those arguing for a more expansive conception of what constitutes the destruction of human life. I will argue that a turn to Elias’s conception of civilizing and decivilizing processes helps to clarify what underpins the opposition between these two approaches. After examining the concepts underpinning the legal mecha-nisms used first to intervene into Australian Indigenous family life and then to pursue holding the responsible authorities to account through “Stolen Generations” litigation, the paper argues for a more nuanced conception of the ways in which civilizing and decivilizing processes interweave with each other in changing ways over time, generating a need to engage with the con-cept of a “meta-civilizing process.”

Print book is available on Amazon and in some libraries.) The narratives and analyses developed in this book cover the "what, how, when and who" and the "why and so what" of the history of Hong Kong Scouting from 1910 to 2010, using a large volume of primary sources. It tells the story of Hong Kong Scouting based on the theme of citizenship training for youth and its defining categories, especially that of race, class, gender and age, both colonial and post-colonial. It is also richly illustrated with many interesting and instructive images, both from private and archival sources. It is a critical study aimed at both general readers and specialists with more specific interests, and should enrich their understanding of the histories of Scouting, youth, citizenship education, the colonies, the British Empire, decolonization, China and Hong Kong First edition of this book, Scouting in Hong Kong, 1910-2010, relying heavily on a doctoral dissertation, was published in 2011 by Scout Association of Hong Kong, when the Hong Kong youth movement celebrated its centenary. Despite a reasonably large print run, copies of this hardcover edition are largely sold out, though they are still available in most public and academic libraries in Hong Kong and some leading ones around the world. This second edition, retitled Scouting in Hong Kong, 1910-2010: Citizenship training in colonial and Chinese contexts, is issued in 2024 in paperback and ebook formats. The paperback edition, being a full-color publication with numerous illustrations, is somewhat costly. Readers are encouraged to opt for the environmentally-responsible ebook edition, which is more economical and full-text searchable, and has navigation aids. The second edition contains corrections, revisions, new writeups, and extra illustrations and footnotes, drawing from additional sources and more recent studies, including two subsequent books in Chinese on the same topic by this author. The same chapter structure of the first edition and, to the extent possible, similar pagination are kept. The Appendices now include information up to 2023 and the bibliography and index have been updated and cleaned up. However, no attempt has been made in Chapter 6 to extend coverage of history of Hong Kong Scouting beyond the cut-off year of the first edition, i. e., 2010. Both the first and the second editions are available for free partial preview on Google Books.

Este ejercicio deductivo pretende trabajar la temática de la argumentación en el contexto jurídico, específicamente en materia constitucional, acción siempre vinculada a la esfera pública, pero destacando el componente falaz y el sesgo político que mancilla cualquier decisión que pretenda ser imparcial y justa. Desde esta perspectiva, se resaltará la derrotabilidad como componente característico del discurso jurídico, lo que debería separar la actividad cognitiva del sentenciador de una evaluación exclusivamente lógica, en la que se establecen formales incidencias entre premisas y la conclusión contenida en el dispositivo de la sentencia. Y en la indagación que se realiza, se descubre la ubicación exacta del edén de falacias que pretende encontrar cualquier amante del contraste entre un estándar lógico mínimo, el cual se debería exigir a un conglomerado de individuos que se hagan llamar magistrados, con los argumentos y técnica propios de un medio signado por la controversia. Ese paraíso rico en equivocos, deconstrucción de silogismos y desuso de símbolos lógicos, es el de una Sala Constitucional del Tribunal Supremo de Justicia, en Venezuela, en la que se ejerce una tiranía judicial, parcializada y sometida gustosamente a los vaivenes de una política autoritaria.
2023, ALBANIAN MIGRATION DURING THE PERIOD OF COMMUNISM, BASED ON ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL FACTORS
The end of the Second World War coincided with massive demographic movements in Europe. Millions of Germans left the land in Central and Eastern Europe, Jews left the places of suffering for safer places, and non-communists fled to escape the violent communist regimes that had just been installed in their countries. There was also a significant exodus from Albania based of economic and political factors. The fate of these millions of displaced people in Europe deeply affected by the war is very difficult. Although the Universal Declaration of Human Rights guaranteed them protection from persecution and denial of citizenship, or the Geneva Convention for Refugees of 1953 guaranteed them the right to repatriation, again, their situation remained very unclear, especially because after capture of the countries of central and eastern Europe by the communists, they resisted repatriation to a large extent, trying to travel to the USA. The migration policies of the USA were determined at that time by the conflicts stemming from the Cold War. Thus, in 1948, an act for the displaced and a special program "for those who fled" offered a peaceful place of residence for those who fled from the communist regimes. The
