Weeding

Captain James Hook :

Thank you.

Well, my stupid, sorry, parasitic sacks of entrails....

Revenge is Mine.

Long live The Hook!

I baited that Hook

and now I'm proud to announce...

We have his children.

Finally I'm going to

kill Peter Pan,

that cocky boy who

cut off my hand

and fed it to

The Crocodile!

And who killed that

cunning Crocodile?

HOOK!

Who stuffed him?

HOOK!

Who made him into

a quiet clock?

HOOK!

Who went to

The Other World

and stole

Pan's children?

HOOK!

And who didn't believe

I could DO it?

Who doubted me?

Who amongst Us

Does not Belong?

Someone here does

not belong --

Stranger amongst

The Loyal,

I'll weed you out.

[Command ship]

(Skagra snaps his fingers and the sphere settles on a pillar.)

ROMANA:

Why don't you tell me?

Why won't you just say what

you're trying to do?

(Skagra looks out of a big window.)

SKAGRA:

Tell me what you see.

ROMANA:

Stars.

SKAGRA:

What are they doing?

ROMANA:

Doing?

SKAGRA:

Yes.

ROMANA:

Well, they're just there.

They're --

SKAGRA:

Exactly. Spinning uselessly through The Void.

And around them, billions of people

spinning uselessly through their lives.

ROMANA:

Says who?

SKAGRA:

I Say.

ROMANA:

And Who are You?

SKAGRA:

What I am now is Not Important.

But what I, what We all shall become...

ROMANA:

What do you --

SKAGRA:

Shush. Look.

(He opens his hands.)

ROMANA:

What?

SKAGRA:

What do you see?

ROMANA:

Nothing.

SKAGRA:

Billions of atoms spinning at random,

expending energy, running down,

achieving nothing.

Entropy, like the stars.

But what is the one thing that

stands against Entropy,

against random decay? Life.

(indicating himself)

See how the atoms are arranged here?

They have Meaning, Purpose.

And what more Meaning and Purpose

than in here. (his head)

You do not understand Me.

Your Mind is too limited.

My Krargs. They shall be The Servants

of The New Generation.

ROMANA:

New Generation? New people?

SKAGRA:

Not new people.

A new Person.

[Krarg generator room]

(They enter a vapour-filled room.)

ROMANA:

What?

SKAGRA:

Shush.

(Skagra activates A Machine, and a new Krarg is created. Giant shaggy alien red yeti with post-it notes instead of fur, pretty much.)

KRARG:

What is Your Command, O Master?

Golden ratio

The golden ratio, otherwise known as the Divine Proportion or Phi, is a mathematical ratio with special properties and aesthetic significance. An enormous number of things in the universe are engineered around the ratio, ranging from the human body to the ark of the covenant to snail shells to the orbits of the planets. Some argue that the prevalence of the Golden Ratio is positive evidence of a common design plan uniting a wide variety of phenomena which share only their creator in common.

Calculating

Phi is derived by dividing a line segment into two parts in such a way that the ratio of the smaller segment to the larger segment is the same as the ratio of the large segment to the whole.

The number is irrational, meaning it never ends or repeats in a decimal system. To the first ten decimals, it is 1.6180339887 ...

A golden rectangle is one in which the ratio of length to height is 1:phi.

The divine ratio also makes an appearance in the Fibonacci sequence. The fibonacci sequence is derived by starting with 0 and 1, and then calculating the next number in the sequence by adding the last two together. Thus the sequence is 0, 1, 1 (0+1), 2(1+1), 3(1+2), 5(2+3), 8(3+5) and so on. The ratio of a number to the previous number in the sequence approximates the golden ratio, and comes to approximate it more closely as the values increase. Thus:

8/5 = 1.6

144/89 = 1.6179775280

10946/6765 = 1.6180339985

Examples

Because Phi is irrational, it is impossible for anything to measure at "precisely" the golden ratio. However, a large number of things approximate the golden ratio to a startling degree.

Architecture

The divine ratio and golden rectangles appear throughout ancient architecture and art. It was believed to be the most aesthetically pleasing and harmonious means of design. Statistical analysis seems to indicate that "people involuntarily give preference to proportions that approximate to the Golden Section." The Oxford Companion to Art, Ed. Harold Osbome, First Edition, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1978, p.489.

Egyptian pyramids were designed with reference to the golden ratio. Slant height / distance from center to perimeter = Phi;
Greek Parthenon designed and constructed out of golden rectangles;
Modern credit cards are golden rectangles;
The painting, The Last Supper, is based on the golden ratio;
The Notre Dame cathedral in Paris is based on the golden ratio;

In Genesis 6:15, God commanded Noah to build an ark saying, "And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits." The end of the ark is thus in a ratio of 5:3. Both are fibonacci numbers, thereby approximating phi at 1.667, so close as to be indistinguishable to the eye.

In Exodus 25:10, God commands Moses to build the Ark of the Covenant, in which to hold His Covenant with the Israelites, the Ten Commandments, saying, "Have them make a chest of acacia wood- two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide, and a cubit and a half high." 2.5/1.5 or 5/3 (a fibonacci relationship) = 1.667, again approximating Phi so closely as to be indistinguishable to the eye.

Biology

Humans

The human head forms a golden rectangle;.
The mouth and nose are each placed at golden sections of the distance between the eyes and the bottom of the chin.
Whole body height / head to fingertips = Phi;
Top of head to fingertips / head to navel and elbows = Phi;
Top of head to navel and elbows / head to pectorals and inside top of arms = Phi;
Top of head to navel and elbows / width of shoulders = Phi;
Top of head to navel and elbows / length of forearm = Phi;
Top of head to navel and elbows / length of shinbone = Phi;
Top of head to pectorals / top of head to base of skull = Phi;
Top of head to pectorals / width of abdomen = Phi;
Length of Forearm / length of hand = Phi;

DNA

Each cycle of the DNA molecule measures 34 angstoms long by 21 angstroms wide. 34 and 21 are fibonacci numbers, as noted above. 34/21 is 1.619, approximating phi. Jean-claude Perez suggests there is a strong link between DNA and golden ratio in 1991, then again in 1997 in his book l'ADN décrypté. In this work, he shows that relative proportions of nucleotides within coding DNA sequences like genes or RNA strings are governed by specific Fibonacci and Lucas numbers sets. This discovery was validated particularly on all known HIV and SIV (Simian Immunodeficiency Virus) retroviruses whole genomes with Professor Luc Montagnier (the discoverer of HIV virus) which called the discovery a "DNA supracode" .

DNA supracode is revealed by computing sets called "resonances" within any DNA sequence: specific nucleotides clusters like FFF (Fibonacci Fibonacci Fibonacci), LLL (Lucas Lucas Lucas), FFL (Fibonacci Fibonacci Lucas) or LFF (Lucas Fibonacci Fibonacci). An example of elementary FFF resonance: 144 contiguous TCAG bases contain exactly 55 bases T and 89 bases A or C or G. This kind of screening is processed along the DNA sequence, for all possible Fibonacci/Lucas combinations, and for all possible values (example here 144 89 and 55 are 3 consecutive Fibonacci numbers). Then there appear lots of "resonances". For example, in HIV whole genome, long of about 9000 bases, there are more than 50000 significant Fibonacci/Lucas resonances. The longer resonances (several hundred resonances) are overlapping about 2/3 of the whole HIV genome (6765 bases which is a Fibonacci number).

Then, to explore both aesthetics and Ethics dimensions of this discovery, Perez published in 1994 an audio CD entitled "the first music of genes" - SACEM GEN0694 - (a subset of supracode for the oncogene KIRAS involved in cancers)...

And also in 1995 sone thinkings related to Ethics of a discovery .

In 2008 Jean-claude Perez is publishing proofs on evidence of Golden ratio based rules at all levels of Life information: bioatoms, DNA, RNA amino acids or whole genomes

Particularly he will publish a central book entitled " CODEX BIOGENESIS: les 13 CODES de l'ADN " (spring 2009) .

Human Genome

The book CODEX BIOGENESIS show that the whole Human Genome is controled by two BINARY CODES ATTRACTORS which provide a kind of self-organized bistable binary code like in computers.[1]

With the central following difference - the binary code within computers was invented artificially by humans and yet the binary code of Life has either “emerged” spontaneously perhaps by self-organization or was the intentional act of divine creation.

The ratio between both bistable states is exactly equal to “2” (the space between two consecutives octaves in Music...)

The Top state is exactly matching with a GOLDEN RATIO...
The Bottom state is also exactly related to Golden Ratio...
“Top” level = = 1 / Phi
“Bottom” level = 1 / 2 Phi
Top / Bottom = 2

Where Phi is the "Golden Ratio"

In 2009 new proofs were provided on the human Fractal Genomephysical and logical structure.

Other life

The bodies of dolphins are defined by the golden ratio
The bodies of ants are defined by the golden ratio
Snail shells and many seashells are golden spirals, that is, a spiral formed by making successively smaller golden rectangles.
In plants, petals, leaves, sections, and seeds, pinecones, pineapples and sunflowers all exhibit fibonacci numbers;
Fruit seeds form in golden spirals.

Astronomy

Golden ratio in the planets: The orbital periods, mean distances, and orbital velocities of the planets in the solar system are all related by phi to a statistical significance of over 99%.
The rings of Saturn form two golden sections, divided by the Cassini division.

The Scorpion, who was a Queen amongst Scorpions, said, “No. If I do THAT you'll turn, and thrown me off your back and EAT me, midstream — then, not only will I day, but the whole of my race will go extinct amongst the Scorpion nations : You are too GREEDY, you will devour me, all of my children, and any hope of a Future for My People.”

The Bullfrog assured him, “Do You really think I would betray you, know that you would sting me to death, the moment it seemed like I might try….?

You are an aggressive, venomous beast, who protects Her Young with Deadly Force — known for it, in fact.”

So The Scorpion Queen thought about it, decided that no — the bullfrog would have have to be pretty fucking stupid to be THAT obviously Treacherous, and so finally agreed.

So The Scorpion climbed up on his back,

and The Bullfrog began to swim.

But halfway across The River,

The Bullfrog was seized by the grip of an insatiable hunger,

and threw the Scorpion Queen off his back midstream, whereupon

She instantly lashed out

and she stung him

and she stung him.

As The Poison filled his veins,

The Scorpion turned her face to the Bullfrog and said

“See You in HELL, You Greedy, Dissembling Traitor..!!

Now YOU’RE gonna die TOO…!!”

“I couldn't help it,” said The Bullfrog.

“I am immune to the lethal effects of Scorpion Venom, and I consume EVERY living creature I can fit inside my mouth, and swallow them all Whole —”

picking the poor, heartbroken Queens tiny children off her back by the dozen, which his lightning-flash long, sticky tongue, until he had eaten her entire Family,

along with any future they WOULD

have had on the far bank of The River —

“It's My Nature.”

he quipped to the desolated

Widow Queen by way of conclusion,

and then gobbled her up

and swallowed her whole.
