    In 1963, he published the book The Adam and Eve Story which interpreted the Book of Genesis, several pre-Biblical legends, and historical geological phenomena to make the pseudoscientific claim that the Earth has routinely been hit by cataclysmic events every 7,000 years.

  4. Cataclysmic pole shift hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataclysmic_pole_shift...

    The geographic poles are defined by the points on the surface of Earth that are intersected by the axis of rotation. The pole shift hypothesis describes a change in location of these poles with respect to the underlying surface – a phenomenon distinct from the changes in axial orientation with respect to the plane of the ecliptic that are caused by precession and nutation, and is an ...

  5. Sports periodization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_periodization

    The roots of periodization come from Hans Selye's model, known as the General adaptation syndrome (GAS). The GAS describes three basic stages of response to stress: (a) the Alarm stage, involving the initial shock of the stimulus on the system, (b) the Resistance stage, involving the adaptation to the stimulus by the system, and (c) the Exhaustion stage, in that repairs are inadequate, and a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silurian_hypothesis

    The Silurian hypothesis is a thought experiment, [1] which assesses modern science's ability to detect evidence of a prior advanced civilization, perhaps several million years ago. The most probable clues for such a civilization could be carbon , radioactive elements or temperature variation.

  9. Scheduling (production processes) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheduling_(production...

    It is an important tool for manufacturing and engineering, where it can have a major impact on the productivity of a process. In manufacturing, the purpose of scheduling is to keep due dates of customers and then minimize the production time and costs, by telling a production facility when to make, with which staff, and on which equipment.
