Bernoulli Equation for the Aether and Ampere's Effect, Ionel Dinu
Ampere's effect is the force that develops between two current-carrying conductors, and no theory exists that explains how this effect actually occurs in nature. The present work proposes that the charges flowing in a wire and constituting the electric current drag the aether that exists outside and permeates the inside of the wire. This leads to the conclusion that the force discovered by Ampere is simply a Bernoulli effect occurring within the fluid aether.

Review of Bolonkin's Non-Rocket Space Launch and Flight, ESJ Staff
The feasibility of the numerous schemes for alternatives to jet propulsion for space missions (space towers, tethers, sails) presented in Bolonkin's Non-Rocket Space Launch and Flight is given a second look.

Classic Flying Saucers May Not Have Been Electric, Jean-Louis Naudin
Small-scale flying saucers with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capability have been constructed by hobbyists. They make use of an aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. It is possible the Coanda effect can be integrated with electrohydrodynamics for a particularly eerie-looking flying saucer.

Spooky Action at a Distance: An Explanation of Bell's Theorem, Gary Felder
In this classic paper, reproduced with the author's permission, Felder describes a proof-by-contradiction of Bell's theorem. This is the theory which states, "No physical theory of local hidden variables can ever reproduce all of the predictions of quantum mechanics." Felder invites the reader to look for assumptions that may have crept into his line of reasoning.
