Answer. It is commonly believed that the first two Anti-Christs were Napoleon and Hitler. The identity of the third Anti-Christ is not yet known. Some people believe that Saddam Hussien will be the 3AC. Many believe that the 3AC will come from the Mid-East. Others have argued that the 3AC will come from East Asia (China, Mongolia or Korea.) This is a common topic of discussion in the Nostradamus newsgroup.

Answer. Nostradamus was educated as a physician and was noted for his work during the plagues of the 16th century. In later years, he worked as an astrologer to clients who included the Queen of France.

Answer. Apart from his professional works (in which no one is really interested) he produced a number of prophetic works. We discern between the Centuries and the Prognostications. The Prognostications are like an Almanac. They contain a series of Predictions about the next year. Because these predictions were fulfilled (or not) more than 440 years ago few are interested in them. The really interesting stuff is the Centuries.

Answer. The books of Erika Cheetham have good biographical material. These are readily available in university libraries and even in many bookstores. See also the other Nostradamus pages on the WWW and the USENET Nostradamus FAQ. (See below.)

Also don't forget to check out Albert Nanomius' eight part FAQ regularly posted on apn. Excellent stuff as a sidebar to the quatrains, and goes to some lengths in theorizing about the "subject" of N's writings.

Answer. Very little or nothing. He does refer to the King of the Mongols, and to a King from beyond the Black Sea. Most of the discussion about China relates to a verse from the Bible that mentions an army of 200 Million. If the prediction is very specific, it is probably bogus. Nostradamus almost always concealed his meaning in anagrams, symbolism, and mythological allusions. (There are exceptions, however, see below.) These articles almost never give a citation to the original verse.

Answer. The names of [Louis] Pasteur, [Gen. Francisco] Franco, and others are clearly given by Nostradamus. The exact date of the London Fire (1666) is also plainly given. Many interpreters think that Hitler's name is also given, slightly modified, as "Hister." There are still many unsolved names and dates. In other quatrains, several dates are given in terms of fairly specific and unique astronomical data (e.g., planet positions in the zodiac). Answer.

Answer. Nostradamus wrote primarily in "early Modern French," with an admixture of archaic words mostly derived from Latin and Greek. Early Modern French is approximately contemporaneous with Shakespearian English. He also incorporates words from the "Languedoc" or Provencal dialect of southern France. Readers who are familiar with Latin and modern French can often understand the original language, even if they have not studied early French or Provencal.

Nostradamus was a French physician. He was born in 1503 in Saint-R?my de Provence, France. He died in 1566 in Salon-de-Provence, France. He was a catholic. His parents and grandparents were Jewish from origin, but had themselves baptized catholic.

The Works of the Law is a book. It was the Miqsat Ma'ase ha Torah. In Greek, this was rendered "ergon nomou" and in English it is "Works of the Law." It was lost for 1900 years. The Dead Sea Scrolls contained a copy. That copy was translated by professors Qimron and Strugnell. A paper has been written on its significance for NT exegesis. The paper is The Works of the Law Text - or MMT (No. 104). The original text and the translations are also available from CCG.

ANSWER 3: The definition of a reportable payment differs depending upon whether the QI is a U.S. payor or a non-U.S. payor. For a U.S. payor, a reportable payment generally consists of income from all securities (U.S. and non-U.S.) and proceeds from sales of any securities (subject to exceptions for certain securities such as bonds issued outside the U.S. by U.S. issuers in bearer form).

Simon says: If I owed you £10 but were able to convince you that £5 was the same as £10, i.e. eroded your discrimination, I could only repay you £5 and be £5 better off. If a group, or race, were able to convince others that race was insignificant, that group could take over the banks, the media and the governments of nations without opposition.

To requote from above: "How then do we get sick? Because we take in too many of these "electron thieves" or in other words, because we eat foods and poisons which block cell respiration. Known electron thieves are for example margarine, animal fat, butter, nitrate, radiation and zytostatics (chemotherapy). They all prevent the uptake of electrons." In other words, respiratory poisons are those chemicals and foods that interfere with the respiration of cells.

The Holy Spirit inspired Matthew to write of John the Baptist, For this is He that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make His paths straight. This is quoted from the reference you gave. Also you will find that a messenger is to be sent to proclaim the coming of the Lord, the God of Israel (Mal 2:16,17; 3:1-4). This is the same Lord and God referred to in your text.

Answer: Yes, you need to complete a student health form and a meningitis form. If you do not complete these forms, you will have a block placed on your account and you will not be able to register. Once you are accepted, a student conduct code must also be completed.

ANSWER: When examining this proposed program, members of the subcommittee sought to find the standards for professional doctorates. Academic administrators, both on the Health Sciences campus and in the central university, agreed that there were no such standards. Further, they agreed that standards for each doctorate differed from discipline to discipline. What seems to be common are the requirements of substantial work at the graduate level.

ANSWER 3: To apply for QI status, an eligible entity must submit an application in accordance with section 3 of Rev. Proc. 2000-12.

Typically, I use pESSL, but use ScaLAPACK or PLAPACK when users have the need (prefer PLAPACK, especially to build a custom solver/routine). ScaLAPACK is comfortable in some sense because I have been using it (off-and-on) for so many years. However, the differences are all in performance, which is important, but my problems with LAPACK/ScaLAPACK all stem from the interface and that, of course, does not change. [Yes, I copied my response from the LAPACK response above ..
