Emeritus Professor David Wolfe, physicist
Monday 17-Friday 21 January 2022
Discoveries in physics have made huge changes in our way of living. Just in this century the discovery of the

NAPOLEON THE LONG VIEW FROM LONGWOOD 20220119 091540 Meeting Recording
Просмотров 229Год назад
2021 marked the bicentenary of Napoleon’s death at Longwood on the island of St Helena. What are we to make of this multi-talented, charismatic, self-absorbed and dangerous figure? Three times as many books have been written about him as about any other historical character. At first Napoleon seemed a clean break from the repressive world of hereditary monarchies and feudal privilege. He was as...

Cinema and the Visual Arts: Lecture 3 by Andrew Lamprecht
The attendees should appreciate him. He is the foremost scholar on the Late Carboniferous-Permian-Triassic origin of mammals.
There was some ditsy lady who asked a question which smacked of Owensy/Creationist rubbish around the 16:20 point. Go figure.

It would look like the ones that are walking around today. ALL CAUCASIANS!
Dr Verwoed declared in parlaiment that the best friend of colonialsm accross Africa has always been Chiefskap as ajacent to Baaskap.
I just wasted an hour of my life trying to find some useful substance in this lecture.
This is rich, freedom begins here.
An exceptional man!
Where in South-Africa are the most personal belongings are being stored?
It’s so different to modern Irish, but a few words remain similar. Like Tairbh, Meisce, scéal, bó, muc.
Something useful, thanks. Sound not so good though.
Dr Fearless and no sugar coating the brutality of the racists and the benefits unlawful acquired.Why I was not teaching history by you Doc.I had so much stress and all that history lessons were not useful.Hope current generation take note and appreciate him and others.Unfortanetly the current happenings where grade 9 learners attack a teacher is a concern.
Why are the so called “khoisan” languages of the other parts of South Africa like the Cape, Drakensburg or Mpumalanga ever discussed or even those of Zimbabwe.
Even today, most Afrikaners sees Smuts as an arch traitor.
367 views. Shameful. What a incredible lecture!

Back here
That Wilgenhof part is gold😂
Are you surprised the Nats under the guise of the Broederbond stealing from the South African investors, all the prominent board members Bond members and part of the Stellenbosch mafia. I grew up seeing all the big government contracts allocated to these closed members only club. Disgusting, just as clandestine as the Free Masons. Suck it up Wiese, now i understand why Whitey Basson is pissed with him. Guess all you can say is Wiese’s buddies from the Bond ended up stealing from a high ranking members while the funds are hidden in Holland.
DOPE 🔥

Hier kom 'n movie.
I hope the speaker starts a pod-cast, he has integrity, is after the truth, actually cares, find an excuse and start podding with local interest. Die Pa van die huis is absent to an extent and you among others have wisdom, like a father of sorts I feel we need more of this cutting through the BS in this Dark Night.
This was a nice series of lectures, and I am interested in watching the missing part 3. Could you upload it or is part 3 lost?
What’s in a name? Quite a lot evidently.

While discovering this topic which I'l lstudy in detail I'm astonished by the lack of comments in almost 3 years !!!!!!!!!
I've 2-5 episodes lectures, I don't have the first one
Oh the drivel.
Gobeklitepe are also an underground temple structures and the beginning of agriculture and of live stock.
All 3 parts of this presentation are excellent. Thank you!
Excellent presentation ! Wish we could have seen the slides as well, but great even without them.
Excellent! Thank you.
My people are the Forgotten first people. Only genetical testing can prove it, Prof De Jongh owes me a follow up discussion after the one we had in Mara Buysdorps clinic. The Ndebele people found us here and we taught them initiation. We briefly touch on the subject when I referred to the Makan stad incident we discussed that day.
The lecturer is the writer Dr Jean Moorcroft Wilson. Her late husband, Cecil Woolf, was the nephew of Leonard and Virginia Woolf.
I am an historian actively doing my PhD in this field. This is *diabolically* boring.
Where can I find the rest of this lecture?
Very interesting. Public / Local Television is an interesting field too. I appreciate this content. Well done.
45:45 controversial theory that McCarthyism a continuation of Populist anti-elitism, if not anti-intellectualism
Is It possible to get prof de jong's contact details. I had a chat with him in the Buysdorp clinic about Louis Trichardt in 2010. We talked about the significance of the Makapans staat and who they got the guns from. Time to connect the dots.
Great lecture. Did Kandinsky reach the soul? Yes, for me, he did. When I first saw some of his art in person I heard a chamber orchestra but couldn't see it. I walked into the room and looked for the musicians. The beautiful music - music of the spheres ? filled the room. I asked my companion if they could hear the music. It seemed I was the only one hearing it. There was no orchestra - only Kadinsky's art reaching my soul.
Yeah, I don’t know, there was a bit of humour (and why not?), but I thought this was a pretty good all together. Especially on TS Eliot.
Freud was first published by A A Brill editors in 1913. On dreams.
This man breaks down how the BIOs of the matrix 😅😅😅, how the operating system of what is deemed as phenomena through customary IP addresses through various components or continents to what we see on the present day... The front end doesn't depicts how the motherboard resources were used to power up our screens or perceptions...
