READING WRITING AND ARITHMATIC

< p> 

The three Rs (as in the letter R)^[1] are three basic skills taught in schools: reading, writing and arithmetic (usually said as "reading, writing, and 'rithmetic"). The phrase appears to have been coined at the beginning of the 19th century.

The term has also been used to name other triples (see Other uses).

Some of the greatest mathematical minds of all ages, from Pythagoras and Euclid in ancient Greece, through the medieval Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa and the Renaissance astronomer Johannes Kepler, to present-day scientific figures such as Oxford physicist Roger Penrose, have spent endless hours over this simple ratio and its properties. ... Biologists, artists, musicians, historians, architects, psychologists, and even mystics have pondered and debated the basis of its ubiquity and appeal. In fact, it is probably fair to say that the Golden Ratio has inspired thinkers of all disciplines like no other number in the history of mathematics.[14]

The skills themselves are alluded to in St. Augustine's Confessions: Latin: ...legere et scribere et numerare discitur 'learning to read, and write, and do arithmetic'.^[2]

The phrase is sometimes attributed to a speech given by Sir William Curtis circa 1807: this is disputed.^[3][4][5] An extended modern version of the three Rs consists of the "functional skills of literacy, numeracy and ICT".^[6]

The educationalist Louis P. Bénézet preferred "to read", "to reason", "to recite", adding, "by reciting I did not mean giving back, verbatim, the words of the teacher or of the textbook. I meant speaking the English languagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_three_Rs#Origin_and_meaning

The Archimedean spiral (also known as the arithmetic spiral) is a spiral named after the 3rd-century BC Greek mathematician Archimedes. It is the locus corresponding to the locations over time of a point moving away from a fixed point with a constant speed along a line that rotates with constant angular velocity. Equivalently, in polar coordinates (r, θ) it can be described by the equation

$$

with real numbers a and b. Changing the parameter a moves the centerpoint of the spiral outward from the origin (positive a toward θ = 0 and negative a toward θ = π) essentially through a rotation of the spiral, while b controls the distance between loops.

From the above equation, it can thus be stated: position of particle from point of start is proportional to angle θ as time elapses.

Archimedes described such a spiral in his book On Spirals. Conon of Samos was a friend of his and Pappus states that this spiral was discovered by Conon

THE COMMANDMENTS THAT KING JAMES VER. NEGELECTED TO MENTION

BEING RAISED IN THE SOUTH AND BEING OF THE AFRICAN RACE OUR ANCESTORS HELD THE KING JAMES BIBLE AS BEING WRITTEN AND HANDED TO US BY GOD HIMSELF, THEY NEVER QUESTIONED ANY WORD THAT WAS TOLD OR READ TO THEM AS LONG AS IT WAS FROM THAT HOLY BOOK. AND WITH THAT BEING SO, THE HISTORY OF THE  BLACK BAPTIST {PROTESTANTS} AS THE RELIGION started OUT TO BE, AS OUR OWN KNOWLEDGE  WAS PASSED DOWN GENERATION AFTER GENERATION, TO BE THE CONNECTION, OR THE PATHWAY BACK TO OUR SALVATION. OUR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT WAS TOLD TO US AS BEING THE HOLY WORD OF "GOD", WHO'S GOD I HAVE YET TO GET FIGURE OUT, BUT A GOD WAS NOT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY BY THOSE WHO PERHAPS HAD SOME NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT WHO IT WAS WE WERE TOLD TO WORSHIP, AFTER BEING TAKEN FROM THE LAND WE KNEW TO BE HOME AND MADE TO SERVE A GOD THAT WASN'T OUR OWN.                                                                        https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/bonnie-allison

THERE IS SO MUCH I HAVE COME TO KNOW ABOUT THE RELIGION.THE UNDERSTANDING OF DIFFERENT CULTURES, AND I DO KNOW AND BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A HIGHER BEING THAT PROTECTS, PROVIDE, AND YES PUNISH'S ALL OF US HERE ON THIS EARTH, THOUGH EVERY CULTURE HAS THEIR OWN RULES, GUIDELINES, UNDERSTANDINGS, ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF GOD. AND THAT BEING SAID LET ME START BY LETTING MY READERS KNOW WHAT I HAVE COME ACROSS WHILE HAVING IDLE TIME ON MY HANDS, WHICH REALLY TURNED OUT TO BE A BLESSING, BECAUSE MOST OF US NEITHER HAVE THE TIME OR PATIENCE TO RESEARCH EVERY BIT OF INFORMATION THAT'S OUT THERE FOR US ALL THESE DAYS. 

    THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: THERE REALLY ARE 613 COMMANDMENTS, 365 NEGATIVES (WHICH CORRESPOND TO THE NUMBER OF DAYS IN A LUNA YEAR ,248 POSITIVE WHICH RELATES TO THE NUMBER OF BONES IN A MAN'S BODY. TWELVE COMMANDMENTS         WERE GIVING UNTO MOSES FOR HIS SEED, THE KING JAMES VER OF THE WRITTEN WORD, ONLY RECORDED TEN  [ie; RECORDED THE TIME I STARTED THIS BLOG AS 1:53 A.M.] THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS FOR ME IS THE NUMBER 613 ,10, AND 153, SEE IF YOU CAN FIND THE CONNECTIONS FOR THESE THREE NUMBERS THERE' ONE NUMBER MISSING+0

    Approximate and true golden spirals: the green spiral is made from quarter-circles tangent to the interior of each square, while the red spiral is a golden spiral, a special type of logarithmic spiral. Overlapping portions appear yellow. The length of the side of a larger square to the next smaller square is in the golden ratio. For a square with side length 1, the next smaller square is 1/φ wide. The next width is 1/φ², then 1/φ³, and so oN

MATHAMATIC, MAGIC, MEDICINE

 WHEN WE SAY THAT ALCHEMY HAD A LONG HISTORY, GOING BACK TO THE ANCIENT MIDDLE EASTER CIVILIZATIONS, WE MEAN IT HAD A LONG WRITTEN HISTORY, ALCHEMY LMOST CERTAINLY HAD A MUCH LONGER PREHISTORY, BACK TO THE START OF WORK WITH METAL AND PROBABLY BEYOND: ONLY IN THE LKAST FEW MILLENNIA HAS ALCHEMICAL THOUGHT BEEN WRITTEN DOWN, IT MAY VE THAT THE WORD ALDCHEMY DERIVES FROM ARABIC WHICH IS APPROPRIATE AS THE ARAV WORLD WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS IN ALCHEMY, SOME OF WHICH DERIVED FROM GREEK PRECEDENTS THAT WERE TRANSMITTED TO EUROPE THROUGH THE TRANSLATION OF ARABRIC MANUSCRIPTS FROM THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY CE ONWARDS. ALCHEMY WAS COMOUNDED OF A SERIES OF CROSS-CULTURAL LINKS BETWEEN MESOPOTAMIA AND EGYPT, BUT ALSO BEWEEN INDIA AND CHINA, ALTHOUGH LINKS VEWEEN EAST AND WEST ARE STILL TO BE FULLY EXPLORED.

DURING THE RENAISSANCE THE FULL HERMETIC AND NEOPLATONIC BASIS OF ALCHEMY WAS UNDERSTOOD THROUGH THEORIES OF CORRESPONDENCEL HERE ALCHEMY APPROACHED MEDICINE, THOUGH THE PRACTICE OF SO CALLED IATROCHEMISTRY(IATROS IS GREEK FOR 'DOCTOR')

Page from alchemic treatise of Ramon Llull, 16th century

The red sun rising over the city, the final illustration of 16th-century alchemical text, Splendor Solis. The word rubedo, meaning "redness", was adopted by alchemists and signalled alchemical success, and the end of the great work.

Alchemist Sendivogius (1566–1636) by Jan Matejko, 1867

A CENTRAL INFLUENCE WAS PARACELUS (1493-1541), WHO COMBINED ASTROLOGICAL CALCULATIONS AS A MEANS OF DIAGNOSIS WITH A VARIETY OF MODES O CURE, MANY BASED ON CHEMICAL KNOWLEDGE SOURCED FROM MEDIEVAL ALCHEMY. PARACELUSUS REFORMULATED THE MEDIEVAL THEORY OF HUMOURS TO ARGUE THAT THE CRUCIAL BALANCE IN THE HUMAN BODY WAS VETEEN THE HUMOURS OF SALT WHICH PROMOTED STAVILITY, SULPHUR (COMBUSTIBILITY) AND MERCURY (LIQUIDITY), AND SAID THAT ILLNESWS AROSE WHEN ON HUMOUR VECAME SEPARATED FROM THE OTHER THREE, WHERE PARACELSUS STARTED TO DIVERGE FROM ALCHEMICAL AND ASTROLOGICAL APPROACHES TO MEDICINE WAS IN HIS GROWING BELIEF THAT SOME TYPED OF ILLNESS WERE A RESULT OF ATTACKS FROM AGENTS OUTSIDE THE BODY. IN THIS THE PREFIGURED GERM THEORYL. PARACELSUS WAS INTERESTED IN SYPHILIS, RELATIVELY NEWLY INTRODUCED FROM THE AMERICAS AND DEVELOPED LAUDANUM FROM AN OPIUM BASE TO HELP WITH PAIN; HAVING FOLLOWED CORRESPONNDENCE THEORY ENERGETICALLY, HE IS NOW FAMOS FOR THE WEAPON SALVEL. IF SOMEONE WAS STABBLED BY A DAGGER PARACELSUS WOULD TREAT THE WOUND WITH CHEMNICAL COMPOUND, BUT THEN ALSO APPLY THE SAME SALVE TO THE DAGGER THAT WAS RESOONSIVLE IN THE HOPE THAT THE SALVING THE DAGGER WOULD ASDO SPEED UP THE HEALING OF THE WOUND.PARACELSUS WAS CLEARY NOT A STUPID MAN AND ALTHOUGH APPLING OINTMENT TO THE DAGGER SEEMS VIZARRE TO US, IT SHOWS THE POWER OF THE LOGIC OF CORRESPONDENCE THAT SO MANY PEOPLE FOLLOWED IN THAT CENTURY.

Alchemy (from Arabic: al-kīmiyā; from Ancient Greek: khumeía)^[1] is an ancient branch of natural philosophy, a philosophical and protoscientific tradition that was historically practiced in China, India, the Muslim world, and Europe.^[2] In its Western form, alchemy is first attested in a number of pseudepigraphical texts written in Greco-Roman Egypt during the first few centuries AD.^[3]

Alchemists attempted to purify, mature, and perfect certain materials.^{[2][4][5][n 1]} Common aims were chrysopoeia, the transmutation of "base metals" (e.g., lead) into "noble metals" (particularly gold);^[2] the creation of an elixir of immortality;^[2] and the creation of panaceas able to cure any disease.^[6] The perfection of the human body and soul was thought to result from the alchemical magnum opus ("Great Work").^[2] The concept of creating the philosophers' stone was variously connected with all of these projects.

Islamic and European alchemists developed a basic set of laboratory techniques, theories, and terms, some of which are still in use today. They did not abandon the Ancient Greek philosophical idea that everything is composed of four elements, and they tended to guard their work in secrecy, often making use of cyphers and cryptic symbolism. In Europe, the 12th-century translations of medieval Islamic works on science and the rediscovery of Aristotelian philosophy gave birth to a flourishing tradition of Latin alchemy.^[2] This late medieval tradition of alchemy would go on to play a significant role in the development of early modern science (particularly chemistry and medicine).^[7]

Modern discussions of alchemy are generally split into an examination of its exoteric practical applications and its esoteric spiritual aspects, despite criticisms by scholars such as Eric J. Holmyard and Marie-Louise von Franz that they should be understood as complementary.^[8][9] The former is pursued by historians of the physical sciences, who examine the subject in terms of early chemistry, medicine, and charlatanism, and the philosophical and religious contexts in which these events occurred. The latter interests historians of esotericism, psychologists, and some philosophers and spiritualists. The subject has also made an ongoing impact on literature and the arts.
