Matter Flashed at Ultra Speed
Using a robotic telescope at the ESO La Silla Observatory, astronomers have for the first time measured the velocity of the explosions known as gamma-ray bursts. The material is travelling at the extraordinary speed of more than 99.999% of the velocity of light, the maximum speed limit in the Universe.
"With the development of fast-slewing ground-based telescopes such as the 0.6-m REM telescope at ESO La Silla, we can now study in great detail the very first moments following these cosmic catastrophes," says Emilio Molinari, leader of the team that made the discovery.
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powerful explosions occurring in distant galaxies, that often signal the death of stars. They are so bright that, for a brief moment, they almost rival the whole Universe in luminosity. They last, however, for only a very short time, from less than a second to a few minutes. Astronomers have long known that, in order to emit such incredible power in so little time, the exploding material must be moving at a speed comparable with that of light, namely 300 000 km per second. By studying the temporal evolution of the burst luminosity, it has now been possible for the first time to precisely measure this velocity.
Gamma-ray bursts, which are unseen by our eyes, are discovered by artificial satellites. The collision of the gamma-ray burst jets into the surrounding gas generates an afterglow visible in the optical and near-infrared that can radiate for several weeks. An array of robotic telescopes were built on the ground, ready to catch this vanishing emission.
On 18 April and 7 June 2006, the NASA/PPARC/ASI Swift satellite detected two bright gamma-ray bursts. In a matter of a few seconds, their position was transmitted to the ground, and the REM telescope began automatically to observe the two GRB fields, detecting the near-infrared afterglows, and monitored the evolution of their luminosity as a function of time (the light curve). The small size of the telescope is compensated by its rapidity of slewing, which allowed astronomers to begin observations very soon after each GRB's detection (39 and 41 seconds after the alert, respectively), and to monitor the very early stages of their light curve.
The two gamma-ray bursts were located 9.3 and 11.5 billion light-years away, respectively.
For both events, the afterglow light curve initially rose, then reached a peak, and eventually started to decline, as is typical of GRB afterglows. The peak is, however, only rarely detected. Its determination is very important, since it allows a direct measurement of the expansion velocity of the explosion of the material. For both bursts, the velocity turns out to be very close to the speed of light, precisely 99.9997% of this value. Scientists use a special number, called the Lorentz factor, to express these high velocities. Objects moving much slower than light have a Lorentz factor of about 1, while for the two GRBs it is about 400.
"Matter is thus moving with a speed that is only different from that of light by three parts in a million," says Stefano Covino, co-author of the study. "While single particles in the Universe can be accelerated to still larger velocities - i.e. much larger Lorentz factors - one has to realise that in the present cases, it is the equivalent of about 200 times the mass of the Earth that acquired this incredible speed."
"You certainly wouldn't like to be in the way," adds team member Susanna Vergani.
The measurement of the Lorentz factor is an important step in understanding gamma-ray burst explosions. This is in fact one of the fundamental parameters of the theory which tries to explain these gigantic explosions, and up to now it was only poorly determined.
"The next question is which kind of 'engine' can accelerate matter to such enormous speeds," says Covino.

The Death of Stars: Stellar Recycling
Picturing structure with spectropolarimetry
The spectropolarimetry of SN 2002ic has provided the most detailed picture of a Type Ia system yet. Polarimetry measures the orientation of light waves; for example, Polaroid sunglasses "measure" horizontal polarization when they block some of the light reflected from flat surfaces. In an object like a cloud of dust or a stellar explosion, however, light is not reflected from surfaces but scattered from particles or from electrons.
If the dust cloud or explosion is spherical and uniformly smooth, all orientations are equally represented and the net polarization is zero. But if the object is not spherical -- shaped like a disk or a cigar, for example -- more light will oscillate in some directions than in others.
Even for quite noticeable asymmetries, net polarization rarely exceeds one percent. Thus it was a challenge for the ESO spectropolarimetry instrument to measure faint SN 2002ic, even using the powerful Very Large Telescope. It took several hours of observation on four different nights to acquire the necessary high-quality polarimetry and spectroscopy data.
The team's observations came nearly a year after SN 2002ic was first detected. The supernova had grown much fainter, yet its prominent hydrogen emission line was six times brighter. With spectroscopy the astronomers confirmed the observation of Hamuy and his associates, that ejecta expanding outward from the explosion at high velocity had run into surrounding thick, hydrogen-rich matter.
Only the new polarimetric studies, however, could reveal that most of this matter was shaped as a thin disk. The polarization was likely due to the interaction of high-speed ejecta from the explosion with the dust particles and electrons in the slower-moving surrounding matter. Because of the way the hydrogen line had brightened long after the supernova was first observed, the astronomers deduced that the disk included dense clumps and had been in place well before the white dwarf exploded.
"These startling results suggest that the progenitor of SN 2002ic was remarkably similar to objects that are familiar to astronomers in our own Milky Way, namely protoplanetary nebulae," says Wang. Many of these nebulae are the remnants of the blown-away outer shells of Asymptotic Giant Branch stars. Such stars, if rotating rapidly, throw off thin, irregular disks.

Undergraduate education generally involves acquiring “received knowledge” – in other words, absorbing the past discoveries of scholars and scientists. But University of North Carolina at Charlotte senior biology major Andrew Pierce went beyond the textbooks and uncovered something previously unknown.
Pierce’s discovery has to do with detecting a significant new detail concerning the behavior of the European honeybee – perhaps the most studied and economically important insect on Earth. Beyond agriculture, the finding may also have key implications for understanding the dynamics of all social animals, including man.
Pierce’s recently reported his research in an article appearing in the behavioral biology research journal Ethology, with co-authors Lee Lewis and UNC Charlotte biology professor Stanley Schneider, Pierce’s mentor. Pierce was first author on the paper – a rare achievement for an undergraduate.
“It was a very good work and an impressive achievement for a student researcher – he got a publication as an undergraduate,” Schneider noted. “I really like working with our undergraduate honors students – they are so bright.”
Pierce, age 22, has been working as a researcher in Schneider’s lab for the past two years through a UNC Charlotte Honors College program that fosters research experiences for undergraduates.
Using an ingeniously designed experiment, Pierce and his co-authors were able to document details of bee social behavior that fundamentally confirm the hypothesis that major colony activities are initiated by the cumulative group actions of the colony’s older workers, not by the queen’s individual decision.
What Pierce and colleagues found was that older workers gave signals to the queen and to the rest of the colony that it was time to swarm and leave the hive. Later, they were able to observe inside the swarm itself and see workers give the queen a signal, known as “piping” that tells her to fly.
“Researchers have never reported worker piping being done on the queen before, so some of what we found was exciting,” Pierce said. “It was generally surprising to see the level of interaction that the older bees have with the queen. This doesn’t normally happen in the hive,” he noted.
“It’s interesting because it shows that though the queen has a tremendous impact on the colony, she’s not the decision maker,” Schnieder said. “The colony is not a dominance hierarchy and, from a human perspective, this is unusual. Our human society is very dominance hierarchy structured --we have centralized systems of control. But bee colony systems of control are very different – they are totally de-centralized.”
Schneider’s lab studies the honeybee and its behavioral ecology. Like humans, honeybees are remarkable for living in large organized groups where highly developed social behaviors coordinate the efforts of thousands of individuals to accomplish complex tasks – manufacturing, community defense, environmental control and maintenance, food production, brood-rearing and education. Like human civilizations, bee societies follow organizational principles, such as following social rules (like human customs and laws) and division of labor.
But here the similarity ends. Bees do not have large brains and are not capable of complex thought like humans. Though the bee colony is centered around the queen and her reproductive capabilities, findings by Schneider and others indicates that she does not exactly “rule.” Instead, the colony appears to be controlled by the anonymous consensus of the colony’s workers.
Though it is of great interest to researchers studying social behavior, a great mystery still remains regarding how bee societies effectively direct and coordinate complex operations without a central controlling intelligence. Pierce’s finding is part of an ongoing research effort in Schneider’s lab aimed at understanding the mechanisms of leaderless societal management – in particular, the importance of two communication-related behaviors known as the “vibration signal” and “worker piping.”
Different from the famous “waggle dance” that foraging worker bees perform to tell other bees where to find a food source, the vibration signal appears to be a more general, multi-purpose form of communication. Schneider has concluded that this signal, which consists of one bee grabbing another bee (worker or queen) and then vibrating its body, does not convey a specific message, but instead is a form of “modulatory communication” that alters existing bee behaviors (making bees perform their jobs more actively, perhaps) or changes bees response to other signals.
Pierce and Schneider have documented in their current paper how workers use the vibration signal to prepare the queen for swarming by making intrusions into her “court” and vibrating her hundreds of times an hour. She responds by changing her behavior -- reducing her food intake, slowing egg laying and becoming more active. At this point, the workers begin to send a second signal that researchers call “worker piping” at a fevered pitch. Piping, which consists of bees making contact and vibrating their wing muscles rapidly, appears to be a general instruction to fly.
The researchers document that the workers stop using the vibration signal when the queen flies and leaves the nest with the swarm. Piping, however, continues in the swarm, as the bees need to make the queen fly again once a new nest site has been selected.
“Drew Pierce did this project last summer,” Schneider explained. “We constructed a special observation stand where we could actually see how workers were interacting with queens inside a swarm cluster, where they are hanging in a tree. That was really interesting, because nobody had ever really been able to look at that before,” he noted.
“What was interesting was how little attention the workers pay the queen – until it became time to go – to become airborne. Then they started interacting with her at very high rates, and performing the ‘worker piping’ signal on her. This interaction is a behavior that nobody had described before,” Schneider said.
Contrary to the popular conception of a colony controlled by instructions from its breeding queen mother, the research shows a picture of the queen as a passive egg layer whose own behavior is programmed, with changes dictated by signals delivered by older workers.
This does not mean, however, that the colony is controlled by a key group of experienced bees either. The worker bees that deliver the critical signals have short life-spans and tiny brains incapable of managing the colony the way a human village might be managed by a council of elders. Instead, critical strategic choices, such as the assessment that it is time to divide the colony and swarm, appear to be decided by the dynamics of the group itself. Social interactions, environmental pressures or group dynamics in some still-unknown way initiate a string of behaviors that effectively manage complex group activities.
“It is a real challenge to understand how bee colonies work, but it is also fascinating because they are so different. Evolutionarily, they got to the same point as humans – living in these highly organized societies that function with remarkable efficiency -- but they are organized so differently when you start digging into them,” Schneider said. “It’s interesting that these major differences can result in the same emergent social properties. It may tell us something about ourselves.”

Physicist cracks women's random but always lucky choice of X chromosome

Physicist cracks women's random but always lucky choice of X chromosome
A University of Warwick physicist has uncovered how female cells are able to choose randomly between their two X chromosomes and why that choice is always lucky.
Human males have both a X and a Y chromosome but females have two X chromosomes. This means that in an early stage in the development of a woman’s fertilised egg the cells need to silence one of those two X chromosomes. This process is crucial to survival and problems with the process are related to serious genetic diseases.
Both X chromosomes in a cell have a suicide gene called XIST which, if activated, seals the chromosome behind a barrier of RNA preventing the activation of any other gene. Researchers believe that this suicide gene can be itself blocked by a plug of proteins forming on top of its specific location on the chromosome but they had little idea as to why this should happen randomly to one X chromosome’s gene and not the other.
Scientists are extremely uncomfortable with this randomness and have sought a clear scientific reason as to why one X chromosome was switched off rather than the other. The observations also seem to run counter to the usual idea that the biological mechanisms evolve in ways that allow a "best" choice to be made between things rather than a random one.
Now researchers led by University of Warwick physicist Dr Mario Nicodemi have explained how this randomness occurs and why that it is beneficial. This will help understand the problems of a small number of women who unusually don’t have a completely random distribution of X chromosomes but the explanation may have much wider implications as at least 10% of our genes may behave in similar ways as mechanism that "chooses" between X chromosomes. Examples of this range from the immune system to our olfactory apparatus.
Coming at the problem from the perspective of a physicist Dr Nicodemi has found an explanation for the random selection based on thermodynamics. Research has already shown that at the key moment in this process both X chromosomes are brought close together within the cell. The Warwick researcher paper says that what happens next is that material for a "protein plug" then begins to gather around both of the XIST suicide genes on each X Chromosome. This starts a race between the two build ups of protein. Inevitably one of these two nascent protein plugs narrowly wins that race and reaches an energy state in which it can pull together all the material building up in both plugs into a single protein plug. That single plug then closes off one of the XIST suicide genes allowing its host X chromosome to continue to operate. However the other XIST suicide gene is now freed to activate and shuts down its X chromosome.
Since putting forward this explanation researchers in Harvard have observed actual plugs of protein shutting down X chromosome XIST genes in a manner giving further confirmation to Dr Nicodemi’s research. So the randomness is explained but what about researchers’ other concerns" Dr Nicodemi believes the randomness actually does give an evolutionary advantage. The mechanism means equal numbers of both the maternal and paternal X chromosome are preserved in the gene pool and the resultant population thus has more chance of surviving any biological threat targeted at a single version of the X chromosome.

Hidden Planet Pushes Star's Ring a Billion Miles Off-Center
Hidden Planet Pushes Star's Ring a Billion Miles Off-Center

A young star's strange elliptical ring of dust likely heralds the presence of an undiscovered Neptune-sized planet, says a University of Rochester astronomer in the latest Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Stars in the early stages of life are surrounded by dust clouds that thin out and dissipate as the star reaches maturity, becoming rings in their final stages. One star, however, has a dust ring that has long puzzled astronomers because it is not centered around the star as usual. Instead, the ring is elliptical, with the parent star off to one side.
"We wanted to know why this ring was off-center," says Alice C. Quillen, Associate Professor of Astronomy and author of the study. "People guessed there might be a planet in there, but nobody knew where it might be, or how big it might be. Now we've got a very good idea."
Roughly 250 planets have been discovered so far around stars other than our Sun. Most have been revealed by the way the planets influence their parent stars, but Quillen has been working for years on understanding the delicate interaction between stellar dust disks and the planets that shape them. She is now one of the world's experts in predicting planet size and position from the features of a star's dust ring.
Quillen used new images from the Hubble Space Telescope that caught the star, Fomalhaut, and its surrounding ring almost edge-on and in more detail than ever before. Fomalhaut, 25 light-years away, is the brightest star in the autumn sky. Using a device called a coronagraph that blocks out a star's light so dimmer objects near it can be seen, the Hubble revealed that Fomalhaut was indeed off-center within its ring. The images were also clear enough to show that the ring itself had a surprisingly sharp edge.
That sharp edge was the clue Quillen was looking for. Since ascertaining one of the first extra-solar planets using dust-ring analysis in 2002, Quillen has greatly strengthened her planet-ring interaction models. Treating the ring like a hydrodynamic structure, for instance, is necessary for younger stars whose dust is relatively fine and acts more like a fluid—while the physics of dust collision become dominant in older ring systems where the dust has begun clumping into larger bodies.
The sharp inside edge of Fomalhaut, Quillen calculated, demanded that a relatively small, Neptune-size planet was tucked right up against the inner side of the ring, using its gravity to toss dust in the area out of orbit.
According to Quillen's calculations, the ring is elliptical because the Neptunian planet's own orbit around Fomalhaut is elliptical—a curiosity in such a young system. When stars form from a giant cloud of gas and dust, the angular momentum of the cloud carries over to all the objects that form from the cloud, including new planets. Those new planets should, initially at least, orbit in nice, circular paths—not elliptical ones. Fomalhaut's ring is offset by 1.4 billion miles, more than 15 times the distance from the Earth to the Sun, suggesting the hidden planet's orbit is also tremendously skewed.
"Something had to skew that planet, and that's what we're working on now," says Quillen. "There may have been fantastic planetary collisions early on that changed their orbits. We're working on figuring out how many more planets of what size you'd need to account for that elliptical orbit, and to account for why there is no other dust inside that ring."
Quillen's model will remain just a theory until a new generation of telescopes can actually see the Formalhaut planets in question. These telescopes will be equipped with sophisticated coronagraphs that can block out Formalhaut's light enough to let the planets themselves shine through.

Physicists get ultra-sharp glimpse of electrons

In this image showing the energy levels of electrons in a two-dimensional system, the electrons can be thought of as a sea, filling all the lowest places available and with a surface at sea level. In the picture, the dark line across the center is the sea level. Bright lines show where the energy levels are. The distance of the lines from the sea level shows how large their energy is, with lines below the center showing states that are normally filled (underwater) and lines above the center showing states that are normally empty (up in the air). Tracing out the energy levels as the number of electrons in the system is changed, from left to right in the plot, scientists can learn how electrons behave together in large groups. Graphic courtesy / Ashoori Group Lab
MIT physicists have developed a spectroscopy technique that allows researchers to inspect the world of electrons confined to a two-dimensional plane more clearly than ever before.
Two-dimensional electron systems, in which electrons are walled in from above and below but are free to move in a plane as if they were placed on a sheet of paper, are rarely observed in the natural world. However, they can be created in a laboratory and used, for example, in high-frequency amplifiers found in cell phones.
The new spectroscopy technique measures electron energy levels with 1,000 times greater resolution than previous methods, an advance that has "tremendous power to tell you what the electrons are doing," said MIT physics professor Ray Ashoori, author of a paper on the work published in the July 12 issue of Nature. This technique has already revealed some surprising behavior, and the researchers believe it will shed new light on many physical phenomena involving electrons.
Ashoori and postdoctoral associate Oliver Dial took advantage of a quantum phenomenon known as tunneling to create the most detailed image ever of the spectrum of electron energy levels in a 2D system.
The new spectroscopy technique relies on a phenomenon that defies the laws of classical mechanics. Electrons, because they exhibit wavelike behavior, can move between two locations separated by a barrier without having to pass over the barrier--a phenomenon known as "quantum tunneling."
"We anticipate that this technique will help us discover all kinds of new physics," said Ashoori. "We're looking into a realm that was just not visible to us before."
Electrons trapped in 2D systems exist in specific energy levels, just as electrons orbiting an atom's nucleus in three dimensions exist in distinct quantum energy levels. By measuring which energy levels are occupied, physicists can study how electrons behave together in large groups.
The researchers used short pulses of electricity to induce electrons to tunnel from a 2D system to a 3D system, and vice versa. By measuring the resulting voltage difference, they could calculate the energy states of the electrons in the 2D system.
The spectroscopy experiments were performed inside a semiconducting crystal cooled to 0.1 degrees above absolute zero.
Until now, the primary method for performing this kind of spectroscopy relied on photoemission. The new method has an energy resolution that is 1,000 times finer than the best photoemission measurements.
Physicists have also traditionally used "transport" techniques that measure electrical currents flowing in response to applied voltages to learn about 2D electron energy levels, but that technique only offers a partial look at what electrons are doing.
"Similar to creating small ripples on the surface of a sea, transport techniques only tell us about what is happening very close to the water's surface," said Dial. "Pictures made with this high-resolution spectroscopy provide, in essence, one of the first glimpses of the entire ocean in these systems and show what a beautiful and interesting world exists beneath the surface."

The metal itself is usually less a handling hazard than the caustic hydroxide produced when it is in contact with moisture. Lithium should be stored in a non-reactive compound such as naphtha or a hydrocarbon.
In humans lithium compounds have not been found to play a natural biological role; large amounts are slightly toxic. Lithium appears to be an essential trace element for goats, and possibly rats, suggesting a role in humans by analogy. However, the essentiality of ultratrace mineral in humans is far more difficult to determine, due to the difficulty and ethical issues involved with the experiments, which involve total isolation from the environment, and unpalatable semi-synthetic foods.

Tightly packed molecules lend unexpected strength to nanothin sheet of material
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/amazinglystr.jpg
Experiments by scientists at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory, have revealed how to drastically change the properties of certain materials by confining their molecules in nanospaces.

Scientists at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have discovered the surprising strength of a sheet of nanoparticles that measures just 50 atoms in thickness.
“It’s an amazing little marvel,” said Heinrich Jaeger, Professor in Physics at the University of Chicago. “This is not a very fragile layer, but rather a robust, resilient membrane.”
Even when suspended over a tiny hole and poked with an ultrafine tip, the membrane boasts the equivalent strength of an ultrathin sheet of plexiglass that maintains its structural integrity at relatively high temperatures.
“When we first realized that they can be suspended freely in air, it truly surprised all of us,” said Xiao-Min Lin, a physicist at Argonne’s Center for Nanoscale Materials.
The characteristics of the nanoparticles are described in the July 22 issue of the journal Nature Materials in a paper written by Jaeger and Lin, along with Klara Mueggenburg, a graduate student in physics at the University of Chicago, and Rodney Goldsmith, an undergraduate student at Xavier University in New Orleans who participated as part of the National Science Foundation’s Research Experience for Undergraduates program. The work was funded by the NSF-supported Materials Science and Engineering Center at the University of Chicago. Additional support came from the U.S. Department of Energy.
The material’s characteristics make it a promising candidate for use as a highly sensitive pressure sensor in precision technological applications. “If we use different types of nanoparticles to make the same kind of suspended membrane, we can even imagine using these devices as chemical filters to promote catalytic reactions on a very small length scale,” Lin said.
As artificial atoms, the nanoparticles might also serve as building blocks in assembling specially designed nano-objects. “This is the ultimate limit of such a solid. It’s just one layer,” Jaeger said. “What is interesting is that already one layer is so resilient and has these interesting properties.”
But the payoff is scientific as well as technological. Scientists had already discovered that the electronic properties of semiconductor material can change dramatically when its tiniest metallic components are tightly packed between organic molecules, a phenomenon called nano-confinement. “But now we find that mechanical properties can also change dramatically. On a basic science level, that’s why this is exciting,” Jaeger said.
The experimental material consisted of gold particles separated by organic “bumpers” to keep them from coming into direct contact. The research team suspended this array of nanoparticles in a solution, then spread the solution across a small chip of silicon, a popular semiconductor material. When the solution dried, it left behind a blanket of nanoparticles that drape themselves over holes in the chip, each hole measuring hundreds of nanoparticles in diameter. Then the researchers probed the strength of the freely suspended nanoparticle layer by poking it with the tip of an atomic force microscope.
Plexiglass draws its strength from the nature of its polymers, long chains of molecules that become entangled with one another. But the short-chain polymers the research group used to link the nanoparticles were scarcely long enough to qualify as polymers at all.
“They probably do not have the chance to entangle like a ‘card-carrying’ polymer would do,” Jaeger said. “The molecules are anchored to the gold particles, but only on one end. The strength comes from compressing them between the gold particles.”
The research team also found that the material held together when heated until reaching temperatures of 210 degrees and beyond.
While the Chicago-Argonne experiments focused on two-dimensional sheets, they generally agree with computer simulations on similar three-dimensional assemblies of smaller nanoparticles conducted by Uzi Landman’s team at Georgia Institute of Technology.
“The behavior of these systems is sensitive to dimensionality, and this is a subject that should be explored in the future,” said Landman, the Fuller Callaway Chair in Computational Materials Science at the Georgia Institute of Technology. “This actually brings another control parameter into question. Change the dimensionality, you change the properties.”

Researchers at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) have developed an inexpensive solar cell that can be painted or printed on flexible plastic sheets. “The process is simple,” said lead researcher and author Somenath Mitra, PhD, professor and acting chair of NJIT’s Department of Chemistry and Environmental Sciences. “Someday homeowners will even be able to print sheets of these solar cells with inexpensive home-based inkjet printers. Consumers can then slap the finished product on a wall, roof or billboard to create their own power stations.” This will be useful for even space programs.

Solar Power Breakthrough: Solar Dyes Could Be Put In Windows, Clothing
Researchers from the Nanomaterials Research Centre at Massey University in New Zealand have developed synthetic dyes that can be used to generate electricity at one tenth of the cost of current silicon-based solar panels. These photosynthesis-like compounds work in low-light conditions and can be cheaply incorporated into window-panes and building materials, thereby turning them into generators of electricity.
Dr Wayne Campbell and researchers in the center have developed a range of coloured dyes for use in dye-sensitized solar cells. The synthetic dyes are made from simple organic compounds closely related to those found in nature. The green dye Dr Campbell is synthetic chlorophyll derived from the light-harvesting pigment plants use for photosynthesis. Other dyes being tested in the cells are based on hemoglobin, the compound that give blood its color.
Dr Campbell says that unlike the silicon-based solar cells currently on the market, the 10x10cm green demonstration cells generate enough electricity to run a small fan in low-light conditions – making them ideal for cloudy climates. The dyes can also be incorporated into tinted windows that trap to generate electricity.
He says the green solar cells are more environmentally friendly than silicon-based cells as they are made from titanium dioxide – a plentiful, renewable and non-toxic white mineral obtained from New Zealand’s black sand. Titanium dioxide is already used in consumer products such as toothpaste, white paints and cosmetics.http://www.metaefficient.com/campbell-wayne-1.jpg
“The refining of pure silicon, although a very abundant mineral, is energy-hungry and very expensive. And whereas silicon cells need direct sunlight to operate efficiently, these cells will work efficiently in low diffuse light conditions,” Dr Campbell says.

Physicists get ultra-sharp glimpse of electrons
Published: 22 hours ago, 13:13 EST, physorg.com (http://www.physorg.com/news104156028.html), July 20, 2007

In this image showing the energy levels of electrons in a two-dimensional system, the electrons can be thought of as a sea, filling all the lowest places available and with a surface at sea level. In the picture, the dark line across the center is the sea level. Bright lines show where the energy levels are. The distance of the lines from the sea level shows how large their energy is, with lines below the center showing states that are normally filled (underwater) and lines above the center showing states that are normally empty (up in the air). Tracing out the energy levels as the number of electrons in the system is changed, from left to right in the plot, scientists can learn how electrons behave together in large groups.

MIT physicists have developed a spectroscopy technique that allows researchers to inspect the world of electrons confined to a two-dimensional plane more clearly than ever before.
Two-dimensional electron systems, in which electrons are walled in from above and below but are free to move in a plane as if they were placed on a sheet of paper, are rarely observed in the natural world. However, they can be created in a laboratory and used, for example, in high-frequency amplifiers found in cell phones.
The new spectroscopy technique ....
The spectroscopy experiments were performed inside a semiconducting crystal cooled to 0.1 degrees above absolute zero.
Until now, the primary method for performing this kind of spectroscopy relied on photoemission. The new method has an energy resolution that is 1,000 times finer than the best photoemission measurements.
Physicists have also traditionally used "transport" techniques that measure electrical currents flowing in response to applied voltages to learn about 2D electron energy levels, but that technique only offers a partial look at what electrons are doing.
"Similar to creating small ripples on the surface of a sea, transport techniques only tell us about what is happening very close to the water's surface," said Dial. "Pictures made with this high-resolution spectroscopy provide, in essence, one of the first glimpses of the entire ocean in these systems and show what a beautiful and interesting world exists beneath the surface."

Work and Energy (http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:Ev8KE8uGxG8J:www.physicsclassroom.c om/mmedia/energy/ie.html+resistance+energy+force&hl=nl&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=nl)
Energy Conservation on an Incline
Consider an ordinary lab cart loaded with bricks and accelerating down an inclined plane. How could work and energy be utilized to analyze the motion of the loaded cart? Would the total mechanical energy of the cart be altered in the process of rolling down the incline? Or would the total mechanical energy of the cart merely be conserved?
Of course the answers to these questions begin by determining whether or not there are any external forces doing work upon the loaded cart. According to the work-energy theorem, if external forces do work upon the cart, the total mechanical energy of the cart is not conserved; the initial amount of mechanical energy is not the same as the final amount of mechanical energy. On the other hand, if external forces do not do work upon the loaded cart, then the total mechanical energy is conserved; that is, mechanical energy is merely transformed from the form of potential energy to the form of kinetic energy while the total amount of the two forms remains unchanged.
In the case of the cart rolling down the incline, there are three external forces (the normal force, the force of friction and air resistance) and one internal force (the force of gravity). The normal force does not do work upon the cart because it acts in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion. In such instances, the angle between F and d is 90 degrees and the work done by the force is 0 Joules (Work = F*d*cosineTheta). The force of friction does not do work upon the cart because it acts upon the wheels of the cart and actually does not serve to displace either the cart nor the wheels. The friction force only serves to help the wheels turn as the cart rolls down the hill. Finally, the force of air resistance does do work upon the cart; air resistance does negative work upon the cart since it acts in a direction opposite the direction of the cart's motion. Sometimes referred to as a dissipative force, air resistance contributes to a loss in the total amount of mechanical energy possessed by the cart. Subsequently, it would be expected that there would be a small amount of energy loss as the cart rolls down the hill from an elevated position to a position just above the ground.
Due to the difficulty in measuring air resistance forces and due to the small amount of existing Fair in situations in which a streamlined object moves at relatively small speeds, the effect of air resistance is often neglected. If air resistance is neglected, then it would be expected that the total mechanical energy of the cart would be conserved. The animation below depicts this phenomenon (in the absence of air resistance).
http://www.physicsclassroom.com/mmedia/energy/ie.gif
As the cart rolls down the hill from its elevated position, its mechanical energy is transformed from potential energy to kinetic energy. At a height just above the ground, the majority of energy is in the form of kinetic energy. This is to say, energy due to vertical position has been transformed into energy due to motion. In fact, if air resistance can be neglected, then the amount of potential energy loss equals the amount of kinetic energy gained. Calculations can be performed to illustrate that the potential energy lost by the 3.0-kg cart in the above animation is equal to the kinetic energy gained. Assume that the height of the cart changes from 0.40 meters to 0.05 meters and the speed changes from 0 m/s to 2.62 m/s.

Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity (http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/Class/1DKin/U1L1b.html); it does not have a direction. it does not have a direction. Unlike velocity, acceleration, force, and momentum, the kinetic energy of an object is completely described by magnitude alone. Like work and potential energy, the standard metric units of measurement for kinetic energy is the Joule. As might be implied by the above equation, 1 Joule is equivalent to 1 kg*(m/s)^2.

Space-time singularity - revealed the mistake (http://www.daloka.blogspot.com/)
A little mistake origins the space-time singularity in the general relativity theory of Einstein. Simple demonstration. It regards only limit conditions but offers extraordinarily consequences for cosmology and quantistic effects
giovedì 14 giugno 2007
Since the first proposed solutions of the formulation of the Einstein general relativity theory, the singularities on the space-time that were discovered, were considered due to an excessive simplification of the models adopted. Further on, due also to their persistence for more complicated models and some exceptional experimental confirmations of the theory, those singularities have been accepted and besides considered the most sensational results of the theory itself.
Here below it is shown how those singularities arise from a little mistake due to an inappropriate extension of the special relativity results to limit conditions.
The General Relativity base hypothesis
The base hypothesis in the develop of the general relativity theory is that, whenever the coordinates system is properly chosen, the special relativity equations remain still valid for infinitesimal four-dimensional regions of space-time. At this purpose one need to choose the acceleration of the local coordinate system in such a way he doesn’t see any gravitational field; that is possible for an infinitesimally small region only.
However the reference to the extension of the spatial and temporal regions introduces an incongruence, as these extensions are relatives and depend from the motion conditions of the observer. One could think that if a spatial and temporal region is infinitesimal for one observer it should be infinitesimal for all the other too. But it’s not true, because a very small region for one observer can be big and even infinite for another one.
Mathematically the base hypothesis of the general relativity can be expressed saying that the space-time interval between two events, as below defined, remain constant for any local observer for which does not exist any gravitational field.
(1) ds2 = dx12 + dx22 + dx32 - dt2 = dl2 - dt2
A free falling observer with a caliper to measure length and a clock, evaluates the distance between two events as dl and dt. Another observer moving fast with respect to the first, and in the same portion of space and at the same time will evaluate the distance between the same two events as dl’ and dt’, much bigger and leaning to infinite with the increase of the relative velocity.
In a flat and infinite space the space-time distance shall be the same, but in presence of a gravitational field and velocity approaching c shall be different, and therefore the equation (1) is not valid for all the observers.
With the introduction of the imaginary time dx4 so that
dx42 = - dt2
Minkowski has made the invariant theory for the continuum four-dimensional formally similar to the theory of the invariant for the Euclidean three-dimensional space.
However the fact that x4 is imaginary causes a great difference with respect to the three-dimensional space. Two points (i.e. two events in the space-time) very closed each other, can have the space and time coordinates very far and at limits infinitively far.
This depends on their motion conditions.All the points on a real plan that are at the same distance from the origin of any reference system, are placed on a circle of radius equal to the distance itself. The value of each coordinate remains always less or at limit equal to the distance considered. On the contrary on an imaginary plane dl / idt all the points at the same distance from the origin lay on a hyperbole.
Of course the distance does not vary, by definition, but if you rotate the reference system, the respective coordinates can become very high and also infinitive.In case of extreme velocity and gravitational fields, it's not possible to define the infinitesimal zones where the special relativity remains still valid. Two spatial-temporal events infinitesimally closed, can be, under extreme conditions, finite and also infinitively extended.In those conditions one cannot consider still valid the special relativity theory, being so possible only for infinitesimal zones.
From the mathematical point of view, the mistake is on the following passage:
In order to express the equation (1) referred to a general coordinates system X1, X2, X3, X4, not local but that cover a finite zone of space of which for example we want to describe the gravitational effect of the bodies inside it, we need to linearize the relations between the local and the general reference systems as follows:
dxv = Ss avs dXs (Ss summatory base s)
and therefore the equation (1) can be expressed with respect to the general coordinate system as:
ds² = Svs gvs dXv dXs
The parameters gxx , that depend on X1, X2,X3,X4 describe the gravitational field in the whole finite zone of the general observer.
However the linearization of the relation between the two coordinate systems is valid only for minimal variation of the coordinates dxv, and not for finite or above all infinite variation as happens in the limit cases considered above.
The space-time singularity as consequence
The singularities in the space-time found inside the models based on the general relativity theory derive from this incongruity.
For a free falling system in a gravitational field, without rotations and at very high speed, the special theory of relativity cannot be applied. The energy associated to the motion is less and above all is not infinite for velocity approaching the light speed.
Let’s think to the difference existing between a system traveling at the speed of light in a flat and infinite space, and a system that is reaching the same velocity at the entrance of a black hole.
In the first case, due to the length contraction the observer is at the same time present in the whole infinite space (and therefore has an infinite energy). Not in the second case; the observer is simply on the border of a black hole and it takes to him a finite time to reach it. It’s not at the same time present everywhere (according to his time of course) in an infinite space. He has therefore a finite energy, becoming smaller and smaller as the diameter of the black hole decreases.
The mistake with respect to the predictions of the general relativity, that is very insignificant for even very massive bodies but far from the condition 2MG/R=1, shows a basic difference with respect to the so called gravitational collapse.
Let’s consider a very massive body in a static condition for which the parameter 2MG/R is just a little more than 1. The general relativity theory overestimates the gravitational potential in the proximity of the surface of the body that would lean to infinite as 2MG/R approaches to 1.
A mass m << M on the surface of M would undergo a gravitational interaction whose potential energy is given by:
Ep = mc²/( Sqrt(1-V²/c²)-1)
The potential energy is therefore less and does not tend to infinite for V -> c. It would tend to infinite only for M-> infinite.
The pressure in the centre of the body is more than the one foreseen by the Newtonian gravity, but does not sort out in a gravitational collapse.
Expressed in different way, the small black holes cannot exist, but only the big ones and without singularities inside.
Which upshots?
This little mistake could seem to regard only a very limited case and not have real consequences on the behavior of the matter. But it’s not true. It involves a big modification in the concept o mass itself, as well as with regards many cosmological occurrences.
The mass of a body is the parameter that characterizes its interaction with the space-time regarding the gravitational viewpoint as well as the inertial one. Such interaction is not however immediate as it needs to propagate at the finite velocity of light.
And this must be true also regarding the inertial aspect. Hence the mass cannot be consider as a scalar entity equal to the ratio from the applied force and the consequent acceleration, but must be represented in a more complex way. The special relativity describes the behavior of a motion in a steady state and in flat space big enough to have the transient completed, actually as more extended as higher is the velocity involved.
This aspect shall be shown in a forthcoming article where shall be demonstrated that taking into account this aspect of the inertial interaction of a body with the space-time one can give a physical account of the quantistic behavior of the matter and the so much searched connection between the two theories.
For the time being, as a demonstration of the potentiality this little mistake can have, we shall report only the following considerations regarding some cosmological aspects.
The space at the border of a gravitational system applies an expansive action as bigger as 2MG/R approaches the value 1, with all the cosmological aspects this can originate.
Common matter can scatter from a missed gravitational collapse. Let’s consider a gravitational system with the value 2MG/R close to 1. As said before a small black hole cannot exist, but only a big one. Such a system must be of a very important mass and with internal pressure that determines very condensed state of the matter (like neutrons or quarks density). When the mass increases again also the dimension R of the system increases proportionally. The density inside becomes consequently lower and lower until these condensed states of the matter can decay into common matter. This could be the case of galaxies and clusters.
Also regarding the formation of the solar system many possibilities come out. The most accredited theory regarding the formation of our solar system from the rests of a supernova explosion shows some difficulties:
A disk or lens shape of the system is does not conform to an origin by aggregation. Besides some left portion of the supernova core should still exist not so far from us.
The mass is nearly all made of hydrogen and helium in the proportion actually identical to the primordial one.
The sun represents more than the 98% of the total mass of the system, and in spite of this has only the 2% of the total angular moment. Actually it should spin much faster if deriving from the aggregation of supernova rest.
A neutron star with the mass of our sun has a ratio 2MG/R = close to 0,5. As the mass increases the general relativity theory foreseen the gravitational collapse for a mass starting from 1.4 times the sun mass (the rotation is very important at this regard)
In absence of the collapse he mass can be much higher. From two to four times the solar mass the density decreases and the neutron core can decay in proton and electrons and create a normal matter with a big delivery of gravitational energy. The outside layer of the star (mainly made of iron) shall be sprayed around on the rotation plan end it will start to concentrate in planets. The inside core shall become for the most part hydrogen and helium and in a well defined portion. The spinning speed will decrease of about 2000 times the original speed due to the expansion.

Cosmotheoros (1698)
During the last years of his life, Christiaan Huygens worked on a "philosophical treatise", addressed to his brother Constantijn, which contained his speculations on the construction of the universe and the habitability of the planets as deduced from his own observations and those of other astronomers.
Although he first planned to write this work in French, he later decided to publish it in Latin instead. Christiaan Huygens finished his manuscript in January 1695 and wrote to Constantijn that he had also found a publisher. On 4 March he wrote to Constantijn that the first page had already been printed but that the printer had not progressed any further. However, Christiaan's health was rapidly deteriorating and on 8 July he passed away. In his last will, drawn up on 23 March, he requested Constantijn to see to it that his book was published.
Unfortunately, Constantijn's duties as secretary to the stadholder-king William III often necessitated his presence in London and the printing of the book progressed slowly. Constantijn too passed away (on 12 November 1697) before it was finished and the last stages of the printing were overseen by the Leiden professor of mathematics and physics Burchard de Volder.
Shortly after the Latin edition of the Cosmotheoros was published by the The Hague publisher Adriaan Moetjens, translations appeared in English (1698) and in Dutch (1699). In the following years, translations also appeared in French (1702), German (1703), Russian (1717) and in Swedish (1774).
This online edition is based on the English translation printed in 1698 by the London publisher Timothy Childe. The identity of the translator is unknown.
The spelling of this edition has been followed and has not been altered to suit modern taste or conventions. The pagination in this edition is given in red numerals between square brackets.
The following table of contents is largely based on the rubrics printed in the margins of the text::

Thank you &:cool: in any case In Mars
In Mars
But Mars, as I said before, has some Parts of him darker than other some. By the constant Returns of which his Nights and Days have bin found to be of about the same length with ours. But the Inhabitants have no perceivable difference between Summer and Winter, the Axis of that Planet having very little or no inclination to his Orbit, as has bin discover’d by the Motion of his Spots. Our Earth must appear to them almost as Venus doth to us, and by the help of a Telescope will be found to have its Wane, Increase, and Full, like the Moon: and never to remove from the Sun above 48 Degrees, by whose discovery they see it, as well as Mercury and Venus, sometimes pass. They as seldom see Venus as we do Mercury. I am apt to believe, that the Land in Mars is of a blacker hue than that of Jupiter or the Moon, which is the reason of his appearing of a Copper Colour, and his [112] reflecting a weaker Light than is proportionable to his distance from the Sun. His Body, as I observ’d before, tho farther from the Sun, is less than Venus. Nor has he any Moon to wait upon him, and in that, as well as Mercury and Venus, he must acknowlege himself our inferiour. His Light and Heat is twice, and sometimes three times less than ours, to which I suppose the Constitution of his Inhabitants is answerable.

Irish company claims wave power success
A prototype wave energy converter has begun harnessing electricity from Atlantic waves off the west coast of Ireland, the Wavebob company said on Tuesday.
Link (Physorg News Published:October 16, 2007) (http://www.physorg.com/news111763283.html)
"This is a giant leap forward for renewable energy production in Ireland," said Wavebob chief executive Andrew Parish.
"As an island in the middle of the energetic Atlantic Ocean, Ireland can be to wave-energy what Saudi Arabia is to oil.
"The more we exploit this unlimited natural resource, the better it will be, not just for the global environment, but also for the Irish consumer's pocket," he said.
The quarter-scale prototype device involved in the trials is not connected to the national grid.
At full scale, each Wavebob device will be capable of producing in excess of a megawatt -- enough electricity for 1,000 homes.
Part of the strategy of Ireland's Energy Minister, Eamon Ryan, a member of the Green Party, is to have 500 megawatts of ocean energy installed by 2020.
Wavebob has invested more than 4.0 million euros (5.7 million dollars) in research and development over the past six years.
The company's partners include Chevron, Georgia Tech Research Institute, University College Cork and National University of Ireland, Maynooth.

Integral discovers the galaxy’s antimatter cloud is lopsided
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/integraldisc.jpg
The left-hand panel shows the glow of 511 keV gamma rays coming from the annihilation of electrons by their antimatter counterparts, the positrons. The map shows the entire sky, with the galactic centre at the middle. The emission can be seen extending towards the right-hand side of the map. The right-hand panel shows the distribution of hard low mass X-ray binary stars. This stellar population has a distribution that matches the extent of the 511 keV map. Credits: ESA/ Integral/ MPE (G. Weidenspointner et al.)
The shape of the mysterious cloud of antimatter in the central regions of the Milky Way has been revealed by ESA’s orbiting gamma-ray observatory Integral. The unexpectedly lopsided shape is a new clue to the origin of the antimatter.
The observations have significantly decreased the chances that the antimatter is coming from the annihilation or decay of astronomical dark matter.
Georg Weidenspointner at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics and an international team of astronomers made the discovery using four-years-worth of data from Integral. The cloud shows up because of the gamma rays it emits when individual particles of antimatter, in this case positrons, encounter electrons, their normal matter counterpart, and annihilate one another.
One signature of positron-electron annihilation is gamma rays carrying 511 thousand electron-volts (keV) of energy. There has been a vigorous debate about the origin of these positrons ever since the discovery of the 511 keV emission from the centre of the galaxy by gamma-ray detectors flown on balloons during the 1970s.
Some astronomers have suggested that exploding stars could produce the positrons. This is because radioactive nuclear elements are formed in the giant outbursts of energy, and some of these decay by releasing positrons. However, it is unclear whether these positrons can escape from the stellar debris in sufficient quantity to explain the size of the observed cloud.
Other astronomers wondered whether more exotic processes were at work. From earlier results using much less data, the positron cloud seemed to be spherical and centred on the centre of the galaxy. Such a shape and position corresponds to the expected distribution of dark matter in the centre of our galaxy, so it was suggested that dark matter was annihilating or decaying into pairs of electrons and positrons, which then annihilated to produce the gamma rays.
The trouble with this idea, however, was that the dark matter particles needed to be much less massive than most theories were predicting.
The new results give astronomers a valuable new clue and point away from dark matter as the origin of the antimatter. Beyond the galactic centre, the cloud is not entirely spherical. Instead it is lopsided with twice as much on one side of the galactic centre as the other. Such a distribution is highly unusual because gas in the inner region of the galaxy is relatively evenly distributed.
Equally importantly, Integral found evidence that a population of binary stars is also significantly off-centre, corresponding in extent to the cloud of antimatter. That powerfully suggests these objects, known as hard (because they emit at high energies) low mass X-ray binaries, are responsible for a major amount of antimatter.
A low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) is a celestial system in which a relatively normal star is being eaten alive by a nearby stellar corpse, either a neutron star or a black hole. The gravitational field of the stellar corpse is so strong that it rips gas from the normal star. As this gas spirals down towards that object, it is heated so much that positron-electron pairs can be spontaneously generated in the intense radiation field, although the 511 keV emission is probably too weak to be detected from individual LMXBs by Integral.
“Simple estimates suggest that about half and possibly all of the antimatter is coming from the X-ray binaries,” says Weidenspointner. The other half could be coming from a similar process around the galaxy’s central black hole and the various exploding stars there. He points out that the lop-sided distribution of hard LMXBs is unexpected, as stars are distributed more or less evenly around the galaxy. More investigations are needed to determine whether the observed distribution is real.
Integral is currently the only mission that can see both the 511 keV radiation and the hard LMXBs. Weidenspointner and colleagues will be watching keenly to see whether it discovers more LMXBs and, if so, where they are located.
“The link between LMXBs and the antimatter is not yet proven but it is a consistent story,” says Weidenspointner. It has real astrophysical importance because it decreases the need for dark matter at the centre of our galaxy.
‘An asymmetric distribution of positrons in the galactic disk revealed by gamma rays’ by Georg Weidenspointner et al. is being published today, 10 January, in the journal Nature.

SPIRE, the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver, is a submillimetre camera and spectrometer for the European Space Agency’s Herschel Space Observatory. It comprises a three-band imaging photometer operating at 250, 360 and 520 mm, and an imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS) covering 200-670 mm. The detectors are arrays of feedhorn-coupled NTD spider-web bolometers cooled to 0.3 K. The photometer field of view of is 4 x 8 arcmin, observed simultaneously in the three spectral bands. The FTS has an approximately circular field of view with a diameter of 2.6 arcmin., and employs a dual-beam configuration with broad-band intensity beam dividers to provide high efficiency and separated output and input ports. The spectral resolution can be adjusted between 0.04 and 2 cm-1 (resolving power of 20-1000 at 250 mm). The flight instrument is currently undergoing integration and test. The design of SPIRE is described, and the expected scientific performance is summarised, based on modelling and flight instrument test results.

When I was 14, I hoped that one day I would have a girlfriend.
When I was 16 I got a girlfriend, but there was no passion, so I decided I needed a passionate girl with a zest for life.
In college I dated a passionate girl, but she was too emotional. Everything was an emergency; she was a drama queen, cried all the time and threatened suicide. So I decided I needed a girl with stability.
When I was 25 I found a very stable girl but she was boring. She was totally predictable and never got excited about anything. Life became so dull that I decided that I needed a girl with some excitement.
When I was 28 I found an exciting girl, but I couldn't keep up with her. She rushed from one thing to another, never settling on anything. She did mad impetuous things and made me miserable as often as happy. She was great fun initially and very energetic, but directionless. So I decided to find a girl with some real ambition.
When I turned 31, I found a smart ambitious girl with her feet planted firmly on the ground and married her. She was so ambitious that she divorced me and took everything I owned.
I am older and wiser now, and am looking for a girl with big tits.

When REM sleep begins, all the areas that were turned off in NREM sleep gear up except one; the logical, reasoning portion of the prefrontal cortex.
So, effectively, your brain is activated save the portion that controls logic and reason.
13. How dreams are produced
This is why our dreams seem so real but appear to be a hallucinatory world, much like that of a waking schizophrenic.
In fact, brain imaging studies have shown that the functional anatomy of dreaming is almost identical to that of a schizophrenic psychosis, except that for dreamers, the visuospatial system is highly charged while the audioverbal system is highly charged in schizophrenics (i.e. hearing voices).
Solms and Turnbull’s The Brain and the Inner World, pg 213
14. How dreams are produced
While dreaming, most importantly, the limbic system, responsible for the brain’s long term emotional center is highly active during REM sleep…effectively driving the boat of your dream (stimulated 15% above waking levels).
The amygdala, a structure in the brain responsible for the “fight or flight” response, is part of the limbic system that is highly active during sleep.
The amygdala is also an important structure in memory, particularly long term emotional memory.
15. How dreams are produced
With the emotional memory center of your brain driving the boat and the logic and reason part of your brain not even a passenger, it is no wonder dreams will frequently have an emotionally charged, hallucinatory, even psychotic nature to them.
While dreaming, thoughts are linked through emotion, not logic.
16. How dreams are produced
The visual cortex is shut down but the visual association area is active above waking levels, which is the area of the brain that is involved in creating mental images and recognizing faces.
This is why dreams are so richly visual, but if someone pries open your eyelids and shines a light in your eyes, you won’t see it.
17. How dreams are produced
Development of visual imagination are a prerequisite for vivid dreaming.
Studies looking at children’s dreams showed that children younger than age 5 typically consist of brief, bland static images (animals, eating, sleeping, or daytime activities).
Between 5 and 8 years of age, dreams become more complex but it is not to around age 11 where dreams take on the characteristic complex plot lines like that of adults.
David Folkes. Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pp 31-38.
18. How dreams are produced
Not until the age of 7 can children form visual imagery in waking consciousness, which means they don’t have the capacity to do the same while dreaming.
As children develop greater visuospatial cognitive capacity and imagination and a clearer understanding of “self,” their capacity to dream develops as well.
19. How dreams are produced
“With the emergence of active self-representation, of autobiographical memory, and of a sensed self that lends continuity to experience, the human person emerges. We dream because we have achieved consciousness.” David Folkes. Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pp 31-38.
20. How dreams are produced
Throughout sleep, the area of the brain that is responsible for putting memories in sequential order and to temporarily store on-going events (short term memory) is turned off.
Also, the chemicals involved in memory formation (NE and Serotonin) are lacking and therefore we typically don’t remember our dreams unless we wake up during or right after a dream. J. Allan Hobson (taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pg 20.)
21. How dreams are produced
Dr. Allen Braun has theorized that dreams are imprinted in our brain which is why we sometimes will see something in our waking day which reminds us of a fragment of a dream from the previous night that we have no true recollection of.
Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pg 52.
22. How dreams are produced
Brain structures involved in long-term memory formation and retrieval are more active than when we are awake (i.e. your kindergarten teacher riding next to you on the way to the football game).
23. How dreams are produced
So, the structures that we rely on in our brain for our waking construct of reality are only partially turned on during dreaming sleep, with the rational, logical part of our brain turned off.
The chemicals which help us to focus attention and stay on track are in short supply.
Additionally, we rely upon internal input (i.e. our brain), rather than external input (i.e. our senses…sight, smell, etc) for our mental construct during dreaming.
24. How dreams are produced
It is important to remember though that dreams are like thoughts; from whence they originate, no one knows….
25. Why we dream
No one knows for sure:
Evolutionary Theories
Memory and Learning Consolidation Theories
Brain development & neural networking
Mood regulation theories
Maintaining and redefining self
26. Why we dream
One theory suggests that dreaming has evolved as a time to rehearse out behaviors that are essential to survival during waking hours.
Most frequent drama reported during dreaming, across all cultures (including small tribal societies) is being pursued by someone or something. Tore Nielson; Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pg 68.
27. Why we dream
That dreams, at least in part, are actually genetically encoded survival-related data inherited from lower species.
A “virtual reality” testing ground to simulate threatening scenarios in a safe place.
Hence, REM-sleep paralysis evolved.
-Antii Revonsuo; Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pg 71.
28. Why we dream
Infants are in REM sleep about 50% of the time.
What is likely happening is that REM sleep is actually help development of neural circuitry that will help pass along this genetically encoded information.
29. Why we dream
Memories are formed by activating specific, interconnected brain cells (neurons) that tie together a memory. When a memory is replayed, it reactivates the firing pattern of those same neurons and causes an anatomical change in which the connections grow stronger the more they are replayed….transforming short term memories to long-term ones.
30. Why we dream
Memory consolidation during dreaming evolved as the brains of mammals evolved to higher cognitive functioning with increased ability to plan and decision-make.
Allowed integration of lessons learned while awake without requiring larger brain matter to facilitate the processing of the information (i.e. enormous prefrontal cortex)
Jonathan Winson; Taken from The Mind at Night. Rock, A. pg 68.
31. Why we dream
Crick and Mitcheson propose the idea of “reverse learning”, a memory reorganizing, where extraneous information makes its way into dream material on its way out of the memory stores….

32. Why we dream
As we sleep, our brains are working hard to save the experiences that we will carry around with us for the remainder of our lives by replaying variations of the event…while less important events receive little attention, thus paving the way for forgetting. Daniel Schacter
33. Why we dream
Rosalind Cartwright theorizes that dreaming plays a part in mood regulation, helping us process negative emotions so that we wake up in a better mood than when we went to sleep.
Studies have showed that 2/3 of emotions in dreams are negative.
By playing out negative emotions during dreaming, we are working through, resolving, and integrating these emotions so that we are better equipped to deal with the source of our conflict in our waking lives.
34. Why we dream
Support for this theory was found in the difference of dreams in a study of people going through marital breakups. Those who were able to recover and get on with their lives had significantly different dreams than those who remained mired in depression.

Finally, the brain has a biological clock, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, that maintains a 24 hour rhythm of activities, even if we are locked away in a cave with no time clues. This clock can be reset by light cycles, or by a variety of behavioral cues such as food availability. In addition, this clock can drive daytime wakefulness as it does in humans and other diurnal animals, or nighttime wakefulness as it does in bats and other nocturnal animals. But the suprachiasmatic nucleus itself is locked to the light-dark rhythm, always being maximally active during the light cycle (or presumed light cycle if one is in constant darkness). How does the brain maintain nocturnal vs. diurnal animals, and how does it adjust to behavioral cues? The answer turns out to be a series of relays from the suprachiasmatic nucleus, which ultimately contact the wake-sleep circuitry. However, the two relays between the suprachiasmatic nucleus and the wake-sleep system are more flexible. They can be reset by behavioral circumstances, such as food availability, and can even override the suprachiasmatic nucleus entirely if necessary.

Abstract
A short overview is given of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect and its device applications. As an example of present research topics, the optimization of the ferromagnetic-layer composition of spin valves for application in recording heads is discussed. The influence on output voltage and stability has been investigated in test structures and compared with material parameters that were experimentally obtained from unpatterned films. It is found that in practical applications a small addition of cobalt is advantageous, since, although the output voltage is decreased, it leads to an improvement in reproducibility, linearity, signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range.

Abstract
We have studied the structural and magnetotransport properties of epitaxial, Co/Ag granular alloy films prepared by molecular beam epitaxy at different growth temperatures. The rapid decrease in the magnetoresistance above 35% concentration at low temperature deposition is related to the presence of Co paramagnetic impurities within the Ag matrix, which has the effect of reducing the spin diffusion length by increased spin-flip scattering and indicates that the spin diffusion length in such granular systems is a determining length scale at the origin of the magnetoresistance.

We present giant magnetoresistance (GMR) measurements performed on electrodeposited Co/Cu multilayered nanowires. The variation of the GMR with the thicknesses of the Cu and Co layers over wide ranges is discussed in the framework of the Valet-Fert model for perpendicular GMR. The interface and bulk spin-dependent scattering parameters as well as the spin diffusion lengths in the nonmagnetic and ferromagnetic layers are extracted from this analysis.

length and time inside matter Text - Physics Forums Library- [[Archive]] [Archive] length and time inside matter Special & General Relativity.
www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-128770.html
Special and General relativity rely on the possibility of having clocks and propagating light rays for defining (locally) time and length. My question is about how to define such things inside matter. Inside a metal block or inside a neutron star, light will not propagate that far, or not at all. Maybe the electromagnetic wave can be made to propagate when going to higher frequencies, but again, one could imagine very dense materials in which this would not be possible. The same question about clocks : How should one imagine a clock sitting inside a dense material ? And who could be there to observe it ? So, it seems that all the nice thought experiments used in special relativity would not apply inside matter. Is this an indication that relativity in general is not strictly valid inside matter (since time and length can not adequately defined there) ? (http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:Z2BgODkddqoJ:www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-128770.html+matter+length+and&hl=nl&ct=clnk&cd=4&gl=nl)
There's something rather odd with your original question, and your subsequent responses.
If I put a "clock" in an opaque box where there's no "propagation" of light whatsoever, are you implying that one has problems in defining time and length?
Note that "light" in SR can almost be considered as nothing more than a euphimism for any electromagnetic interaction. There are EM interaction inside matter - that's who they stay together most of the time, especially in metals where the EM forces are responsible for holding them together in a regular lattice. So the absence of any visible light propagation is irrelevant in the presence of time and length in such a situation.

Electron filmed for first time ever
Now it is possible to see a movie of an electron. The movie shows how an electron rides on a light wave after just having been pulled away from an atom. This is the first time an electron has ever been filmed, and the results are presented in the latest issue of Physical Review Letters.
Previously it has been impossible to photograph electrons since their extremely high velocities have produced blurry pictures. In order to capture these rapid events, extremely short flashes of light are necessary, but such flashes were not previously available. With the use of a newly developed technology for generating short pulses from intense laser light, so-called attosecond pulses, scientists at the Lund University Faculty of Engineering in Sweden have managed to capture the electron motion for the first time.
“It takes about 150 attoseconds for an electron to circle the nucleus of an atom. An attosecond is 10-18 seconds long, or, expressed in another way: an attosecond is related to a second as a second is related to the age of the universe,” says Johan Mauritsson, an assistant professor in atomic physics at the Faculty of Engineering, Lund University. He is one of seven researchers behind the study, which was directed by him and Professor Anne L’Huillier.
With the aid of another laser these scientists have moreover succeeded in guiding the motion of the electron so that they can capture a collision between an electron and an atom on film.
“We have long been promising the research community that we will be able to use attosecond pulses to film electron motion. Now that we have succeeded, we can study how electrons behave when they collide with various objects, for example. The images can function as corroboration of our theories,” explains Johan Mauritsson.
These scientists also hope to find out more about what happens with the rest of the atom when an inner electron leaves it, for instance how and when the other electrons fill in the gap that is created.
“What we are doing is pure basic research. If there happen to be future applications, they will have to be seen as a bonus,” adds Johan Mauritsson.
The length of the film corresponds to a single oscillation of the light, but the speed has then been ratcheted down considerably so that we can watch it. The filmed sequence shows the energy distribution of the electron and is therefore not a film in the usual sense.
Previously scientists have studied the movements of electrons using indirect methods, such as by metering their spectrum. With these methods it has only been possible to measure the result of an electron’s movement, whereas now we have the opportunity to monitor the entire event.
It has been possible to create attosecond pulses for a couple of years now, but not until now has anyone managed to use them to film electron movements, since the attosecond pulses themselves are too weak to take clear pictures.
“By taking several pictures of exactly the same moment in the process, it’s possible to create stronger, but still sharp, images. A precondition is for the process to be repeated in an identical manner, which is the case regarding the movement of an electron in a ray of light. We started with a so-called stroboscope. A stroboscope enables us to ‘freeze’ a periodic movement, like capturing a hummingbird flapping its wings. You then take several pictures when the wings are in the same position, such as at the top, and the picture will turn out clear, despite the rapid motion,” clarifies Johan Mauritsson.

We demonstrate a quantum stroboscope based on a sequence of identical attosecond pulses that are used to release electrons into a strong infrared laser field exactly once per laser cycle. The resulting electron momentum distributions are recorded as a function of time delay between the IR laser and the attosecond pulse train using a velocity map imaging spectrometer.

Research Overview
In Lund, we are performing basic research in a very exciting field at the border between atomic and molecular physics and advanced optics, nonlinear optics and laser physics: high-order harmonic generation in gaseous media exposed to intense laser fields and its applications. The harmonic spectrum exhibits an extended "plateau" where consecutive (odd) harmonics have approximately the same intensity. If the harmonics are emitted in phase, i.e. phase-locked, the temporal structure of the radiation emitted from the medium consists of a “train” of attosecond pulses separated by half the laser period [Varjú et al.].
http://www.atto.fysik.lth.se/research/images/shortestpulse.jpg
Evolution of ultrashort light pulses. In 2001, the "femtosecond barrier" was broken, by going into the extreme ultraviolet range and by using high-order harmonic generation in gases.

Principle for the generation of attosecond pulses using high-order harmonic generation. A typical harmonic spectrum is indicated on the left. If the harmonics are synchronized, their beating leads to a train of attosecond pulses (on the right).
Generation and characterization of attosecond XUV pulses
We have built a robust and flexible setup for the generation, characterization and compression of attosecond pulses. In 2003, we were able to produce trains of 170 as pulses, the shortest pulses produced to date [López-Martens et al.]. Today, we operate one of the shortest in duration and most flexible attosecond pulse sources in the world. We use thin metallic films or alternatively broadband XUV mirrors, to filter out a broad spectral range (~30 eV) and to synchronize up to ten consecutive harmonics, thus achieving on target short, single-cycle, 170 as pulses.

Compression of attosecond pulses down to 170 attoseconds (red line). This represents the shortest measured light pulse. The inset shows that these pulses are single-cycle.
Applications of attosecond XUV pulses
These pulses can now be used to probe ultrafast electronic processes with an unprecedented time scale resolution. Recently, we have used an attosecond pulse train to create temporally confined electron wavepackets and we have studied their interaction with a strong laser field [Johnsson et al.]. The energy and angular distribution of the electrons is found to strongly vary as a function of the delay between the infrared field and the attosecond pulses, i.e. on an attosecond time scale.
http://www.atto.fysik.lth.se/research/images/electrondyn.jpg
Attosecond electron dynamics. An attosecond pulse train creates temporally confined electron wavepackets which interact with a laser field. Depending on the attosecond timing between the laser cycle and their time of creation, the electrons acquire more or less extra energy from the field.
Attosecond pulses and pulse trains give us a tool to study how light interacts with matter at a detailed level never possible before! Attosecond science is in its birth stage, representing a great challenge. Not surprisingly, attosecond pulses are now the "hottest" topic of strong field laser physics and possible applications are raising equally great interest in the scientific community. The vision is that the generation of attosecond pulses will become a new tool for fundamental studies of electronic processes at the natural time scale, the attosecond time scale (one atomic unit is 24 attoseconds) and atomic dimensions. Thus atomic, molecular and even nuclear physics will be investigated on these atomic scales, bringing a revolution in our microscopic knowledge and understanding of matter.
Harmonic source development
By spectrally selecting one harmonic order, a relatively narrow bandwidth source of XUV radiation is obtained, with short pulse duration, high brightness and good coherence. This XUV light source is used for a growing number of applications ranging from atomic and molecular spectroscopy to solid-state and plasma physics. We develop the harmonic source for novel applications and in particular for use as a high-quality seed of other sources of XUV radiation, like soft X-ray lasers or X-ray free-electron lasers, as well as for (time-resolved) holographic imaging.

Old Cellulose Found in NM Salt Crystals
By MATT MYGATT, Associated Press Writer
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/oldcellulose.jpg
This photo provided by Jack Griffith, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, shows Waste Isolation Pilot Plant staff member Sam Dominguez using a core drill to extract salt crystal samples from a salt wall at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad, N.M. in December 2006. Griffith and his team found cellulose dating back 253 million years _ along with some possible ancient DNA _ in salt crystals from the underground nuclear waste dump. The crystals were taken from newly mined areas 2,000 feet below WIPP's desert surface last fall and a couple of years ago, Griffith said Wednesday, April 9, 2008. Griffith said he thinks looking for cellulose in salt deposits is a good way to go searching for life on other planets. (AP pPhoto/Courtesy of Jack Griffith)
(AP) -- Cellulose dating back 253 million years - along with some possible ancient DNA - has been found in salt crystals from an underground nuclear waste dump in southern New Mexico.

"We did see some ancient DNA in the salt, but not a lot, and we have to continue experiments to try to verify that it is ancient DNA," said Jack D. Griffith, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine.
The cellulose - the same microscopic stuff in wood or cotton - was in water locked in tiny cubes of clear and reddish-brown salt crystals at the federal government's Waste Isolation Pilot Plant near Carlsbad.
The crystals were taken from newly mined areas 2,000 feet below WIPP's desert surface last fall and a couple of years ago, Griffith said last week.
"We found one in a wall that was a couple of feet across, almost looking like into a huge frozen block of ice. The others were found in crystal that is smaller and finer and in jumbles with sulfur or clay deposits," he said.
The research by Griffith and four co-authors was published in the April issue of the journal Astrobiology.

Griffith said he thinks looking for cellulose in salt deposits is a good way to go searching for life on other planets because cellulose is tough.
He and his colleagues used a tiny drill - about the width of a cat's whisker - to bore into the water-bearing cubes to retrieve drops water as large as one from a standard eyedropper.
"These inclusions contain saturated salt water that is basically a time capsule that is a quarter-of-a-billion years old," Griffith said.
Evaporation cycles from a Permian sea created a 2,000-foot-thick bed of salt.
The water drops were placed in a centrifuge and the remaining pellets were examined with an electron microscope.
"We were thinking we might see bacteria or bacteria viruses or DNA," Griffith said.
"But there were all these mats of this fibrous stuff," which further tests and research found to be cellulose, he said.
The cellulose looks like a web of tangled angel hair pasta. The fibers are about twice the diameter of a DNA molecule.
The discovery of the cellulose, probably remnants of filamentous algae, is significant and exciting, said Karl Niklas, a professor at Cornell University's Department of Plant Biology.
"The cell walls were preserved, so they (Griffith's team) have native cellulose," Niklas said.
The ancient cellulose was not fossilized - a process in which biological material is replaced by minerals, making a rock.
Cellulose is "a fairly simple structure. And it's probably a fairly simple step for the earliest life forms a couple of billion years ago to start stringing these things together one after another," Griffith said.
"Bacterial colonies could use it to synthesize mats. They could coat themselves with it for protection," he said.
"Not only is it (cellulose) extremely stable, but it's also by far the single most abundant molecule on the planet," Griffith said.
Plants, algae and bacteria generate about 100 gigatons of cellulose a year, he said.
"We're kind of living in a soup of this stuff," Griffith said.
Griffith and his students have talked about going into older salt beds - such as an almost 400 million-year-old deposit under Detroit - to look for cellulose.
"The joke has been that this is the first time students want to be sent to the salt mines," he said.

Itching for a better anti-itch remedy? Your wish may soon be granted now that scientists at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have identified the first gene for the itch sensation in the central nervous system. The discovery could rapidly lead to new treatments directly targeting itchiness and providing relief for chronic and severe itching.

Trapped, Imaged Single Atoms May Enable Powerful Quantum Computing
By Laura Mgrdichian
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/Qubic_atom_array.gif
An image of one plane of the cubic atom array.
Bright spots are single atoms; the haze is from
atoms trapped in out-of-focus planes.
Quantum computers have the potential to vastly out-perform present-day “classical” computers – if scientists can identify and manipulate promising quantum bits, or “qubits,” the basic information-storing units of a quantum computer.
Recently, researchers from The Pennsylvania State University trapped and imaged a three-dimensional array of 250 neutral atoms – each a promising qubit. This work could one day form the base for an incredibly powerful quantum computer.
“Atoms are ideal quantum systems,” explains Penn State physicist David Weiss, the experiment's corresponding scientist, to PhysOrg.com. “We have shown that we can trap hundreds of isolated atoms in such a way that it should be possible to individually address them, making each of them a qubit. It may be a long road from here to a useful quantum computer, but we can already see quite far down that road.”
Weiss and his group, including postdoctoral researcher Karl Nelson and graduate student Xiao Li, who performed the work, say that a quantum computer consisting of even 50 qubits could perform simulations way beyond those of current computers. Prior to their work, however, fewer than ten atoms had been imaged simultaneously nor had scientists successfully used light to trap and image either single atoms or atom bunches into three-dimensional “optical lattices.”
The optical lattice this research group created results from three overlapping laser-beam pairs and traps cold neutral cesium atoms. The beams restrict the atoms tightly in all three directions and lock them into a cubic array, with equal spacing between each atom. This occurs due to the interference pattern produced by the crossed beams; that is, how the light waves add and cancel each other, resulting in a regular cubic grid of maxima (bright spots) and minima (dark spots). The atoms are trapped in the minima.
Weiss and his colleagues imaged the lattice plane by plane, taking photographs of each layer. The photos show that the light used to image the array is highly unlikely to cause atoms to hop around in the lattice, a requirement if this type of atom arrangement could be one day used in a quantum computer. The researchers also assert that the spacing between each atom should be large enough such that individual atoms can be manipulated. By combining this ability with the ability to repeatedly image the array without disrupting it, the scientists think they have the basic ingredients for workable qubits. Their method could be used to create optical lattices containing thousands of atoms.
However, warns Weiss, “I don't want to understate the technical challenge of building a large quantum computer with our approach, or any other approach.”

E-PRIME, abolishing all forms of the verb "to be,"
it appears >>
I'd be very surprised if this hadn't been presented on this forum before. What do you think? Do you think it would help to reduce the number of arguments? I have seen a lot of IS-ness being presented on here, I find it disturbing and it appears, to me, to lead to more arguments.
IS this a better way of communicating?
TOWARD UNDERSTANDING E -PRIME
Robert Anton Wilson
E-PRIME, abolishing all forms of the verb "to be," has its roots in the field of general semantics, as presented by Alfred Korzybski in his 1933 book, Science and Sanity. Korzybski pointed out the pitfalls associated with, and produced by, two usages of "to be": identity and predication. His student D. David Bourland, Jr., observed that even linguistically sensitive people do not seem able to avoid identity and predication uses of "to be" if they continue to use the verb at all. Bourland pioneered in demonstrating that one can indeed write and speak without using any form of "to be," calling this subset of the English language "E-Prime." Many have urged the use of E-Prime in writing scientific and technical papers. Dr. Kellogg exemplifies a prime exponent of this activity. Dr. Albert Ellis has rewritten five of his books in E-Prime, in collaboration with Dr. Robert H. Moore, to improve their clarity and to reap the epistemological benefits of this language revision. Korzybski felt that all humans should receive training in general semantics from grade school on, as "semantic hygiene" against the most prevalent forms of logical error, emotional distortion, and "demonological thinking." E-Prime provides a straightforward training technique for acquiring such semantic hygiene.
To understand E-Prime, consider the human brain as a computer. (Note that I did not say the brain "is" a computer.) As the Prime Law of Computers tells us, GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT (GIGO, for short). The wrong software guarantees wrong answers. Conversely, finding the right software can "miraculously" solve problems that previously appeared intractable.
It seems likely that the principal software used in the human brain consists of words, metaphors, disguised metaphors, and linguistic structures in general. The Sapir-Whorf-Korzybski Hypothesis, in anthropology, holds that a change in language can alter our perception of the cosmos. A revision of language structure, in particular, can alter the brain as dramatically as a psychedelic. In our metaphor, if we change the software, the computer operates in a new way.
Consider the following paired sets of propositions, in which Standard English alternates with English-Prime (E-Prime):
lA. The electron is a wave.
lB. The electron appears as a wave when measured with instrument-l.
2A. The electron is a particle.
2B. The electron appears as a particle when measured with instrument-2.
3A. John is lethargic and unhappy.
3B. John appears lethargic and unhappy in the office.
4A. John is bright and cheerful.
4B. John appears bright and cheerful on holiday at the beach.
5A. This is the knife the first man used to stab the second man.
5B. The first man appeared to stab the second man with what looked like a knife to me.
6A. The car involved in the hit-and-run accident was a blue Ford.
6B. In memory, I think I recall the car involved in the hit-and-run accident as a blue Ford.
7A. This is a fascist idea.
7B. This seems like a fascist idea to me.
8A. Beethoven is better than Mozart.
8B. In my present mixed state of musical education and ignorance, Beethoven seems better to me than Mozart.
9A. That is a sexist movie.
9B. That seems like a sexist movie to me.
10A. The fetus is a person.
10B. In my system of metaphysics, I classify the fetus as a person.
The "A"-type statements (Standard English) all implicitly or explicitly assume the medieval view called "Aristotelian essentialism" or "naive realism." In other words, they assume a world made up of block-like entities with indwelling "essences" or spooks- "ghosts in the machine." The "B"-type statements (E-Prime) recast these sentences into a form isomorphic to modern science by first abolishing the "is" of Aristotelian essence and then reformulating each observation in terms of signals received and interpreted by a body (or instrument) moving in space-time.
Relativity, quantum mechanics, large sections of general physics, perception psychology, sociology, linguistics, modern math, anthropology, ethology, and several other sciences make perfect sense when put into the software of E-Prime. Each of these sciences generates paradoxes, some bordering on "nonsense" or "gibberish," if you try to translate them back into the software of Standard English.
Concretely, "The electron is a wave" employs the Aristotelian "is" and thereby introduces us to the false-to-experience notion that we can know the indwelling "essence" of the electron. "The electron appears as a wave when measured by instrument-1" reports what actually occurred in space-time, namely that the electron when constrained by a certain instrument behaved in a certain way.
Similarly, "The electron is a particle" contains medieval Aristotelian software, but "The electron appears as a particle when measured by instrument-2" contains modern scientific software. Once again, the software determines whether we impose a medieval or modern grid upon our reality-tunnel.
Note that "the electron is a wave" and "the electron is a particle" contradict each other and begin the insidious process by which we move gradually from paradox to nonsense to total gibberish. On the other hand, the modern scientific statements "the electron appears as a wave when measured one way" and "the electron appears as a particle measured another way" do not contradict, but rather complement each other. (Bohr's Principle of Complementarity, which explained this and revolutionized physics, would have appeared obvious to all, and not just to a person of his genius, if physicists had written in E-Prime all along. . . .)
Looking at our next pair, "John is lethargic and unhappy" vs. "John is bright and cheerful,' we see again how medieval software creates metaphysical puzzles and totally imaginary contradictions. Operationalizing the statements, as physicists since Bohr have learned to operationalize, we find that the E-Prime translations do not contain any contradiction, and even give us a clue as to causes of John's changing moods. (Look back if you forgot the translations.)
"The first man stabbed the second man with a knife" lacks the overt "is" of identity but contains Aristotelian software nonetheless. The E-Prime translation not only operationalizes the data, but may fit the facts better-if the incident occurred in a psychology class, which often conduct this experiment. (The first man "stabs," or makes stabbing gestures at, the second man, with a banana, but many students, conditioned by Aristotelian software, nonetheless "see" a knife. You don't need to take drugs to hallucinate; improper language can fill your world with phantoms and spooks of many kinds.)
The reader may employ his or her own ingenuity in analyzing how "is-ness" creates false-to-facts reality-tunnels in the remaining examples, and how E-Prime brings us back to the scientific, the operational, the existential, the phenomenological--to what humans and their instruments actually do in space-time as they create observations, perceptions, thoughts, deductions, and General Theories.
I have found repeatedly that when baffled by a problem in science, in "philosophy," or in daily life, I gain immediate insight by writing down what I know about the enigma in strict E-Prime. Often, solutions appear immediately-just as happens when you throw out the "wrong" software and put the "right" software into your PC. In other cases, I at least get an insight into why the problem remains intractable and where and how future science might go about finding an answer. (This has contributed greatly to my ever-escalating agnosticism about the political, ideological, and religious issues that still generate the most passion on this primitive planet.)
When a proposition resists all efforts to recast it in a form consistent with what we now call E-Prime, many consider it "meaningless." Korzybski, Wittgenstein, the Logical Positivists, and (in his own way) Niels Bohr promoted this view. I happen to agree with that verdict (which condemns 99 percent of theology and 99.999999 percent of metaphysics to the category of Noise rather than Meaning)--but we must save that subject for another article. For now, it suffices to note that those who fervently believe such Aristotelian propositions as "A piece of bread, blessed by a priest, is a person (who died two thousand years ago)," "The flag is a living being," or "The fetus is a human being" do not, in general, appear to make sense by normal twentieth-century scientific standards.

And, yes, I do see the problem with my quote from RAW in my sig! :D
Pablo Neruda
I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as certain dark things are loved,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom and carries
hidden within itself the light of those flowers,
and thanks to your love, darkly in my body
lives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving
but this, in which there is no I or you,
so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,
so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.
Linking low frequency hearing to the cochlea's curvature
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/shapematters_figures_800.jpg
The figure at the top shows how the base and apex radii of the cochlea were determined. The graph at the bottom illustrates the link between the radii ratio and the low frequency hearing limit of a number of species: ms1 and ms2 are two strains of mice; ra1 and ra2 are two species of rat; bd is the bottlenose dolphin; sl is the sea lion; sm is the squirrel monkey; ca is the cat; ch is the chinchilla; gb is the gerbil; gp is the guinea pig; h is the human; e is the elephant; cw is the cow.

Shape matters, even in hearing. Specifically, it is the shape of the cochlea — the snail-shell-shaped organ in the inner ear that converts sound waves into nerve impulses that the brain deciphers — which proves to be surprisingly important.
A study published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences establishes a direct link between the cochlea's curvature and the low-frequency hearing limit of more than a dozen different mammals.
The relationship will be useful in conservation to estimate the impact that the noises of human activities are having on animals like Siberian tigers, polar bears and marine mammals that won't sit still for hearing tests. It also can provide new information about the hearing of extinct mammals, like mammoths and saber-toothed tigers, and, in so doing, may contribute new insights into how the sense of hearing evolved.
"It turns out that it is the curvature of the cochlea, not its size, that is highly correlated to the low-frequency hearing limit," says Daphne Manoussaki, assistant professor of mathematics at Vanderbilt University, who headed the new study with Richard S. Chadwick, a section chief at the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (one of the National Institutes of Health, or NIH).
Spiral-shaped cochleae are exclusive to mammals. Birds and reptiles generally have plate-like or slightly curved versions of this critical organ, limiting the span of octaves that they can hear. Animals with tightly coiled cochleae tend to have greater hearing ranges, but previous attempts to associate these auditory effects with the physical characteristics of the cochlea have proven unsatisfactory because they did not take a critical acoustic effect into account.
In 2006 Manoussaki and her NIH collaborators published a paper proposing that the helical shape of the cochlea enhances low-frequency sounds through an effect analogous to the well-known "whispering gallery effect" in which soft sounds that travel along curved walls in a large chamber remain loud enough that they can be heard clearly on the opposite side of the room.
When sound waves enter the ear, they strike the eardrum and cause it to vibrate. Tiny bones in the ear amplify and transmit these vibrations to the fluid in the cochlea, creating pressure waves that travel along a narrowing canal in the coiled tube-like organ. The canal is one of two main chambers that are created by an elastic membrane that runs the length of the cochlea. The mechanical properties of this "basilar" membrane vary from very stiff at the broad, outer end to increasingly flexible toward the inner end as the chambers narrow. The basilar membrane's graded properties cause the waves to grow and then die away. Different frequencies peak at different positions along the membrane.
Sensory cells are attached to the basilar membrane and have tufts of tiny hairs called stereocilia that stick up into adjacent structures in the canal. As the basilar membrane moves it tilts the sensory cells, causing the stereocilia to bend. The motion generates electric signals that travel along the auditory nerve to the brain. As a result, the sensory cells near the outer end of the cochlea detect high-pitched sounds, like the notes of a piccolo, while those at the inner end of the spiral detect lower-frequency sounds, like the booming of a bass drum.
This mechanical ordering of response from high to low frequencies works in the same fashion whether the cochlear tube is laid out straight or coiled in a spiral. But Manoussaki's calculations predicted that the spiral shape causes the energy in the low-frequency waves to accumulate against the outside edge of the chamber. This uneven energy distribution, in turn, causes the membrane to move more toward the outer wall of the chamber, enhancing the bending of the stereociliae. The enhancement is strongest at the apex of the spiral, where the lowest frequencies are detected. Manoussaki and her collaborators calculated that the increase in the sound pressure level can be as much as 20 decibels, equivalent to the difference between the aural ambience of a quiet restaurant and a busy street.
"The idea that the cochlea's curvature has a significant effect on hearing has been quite controversial for many years," says Darlene R. Ketten, a senior scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and assistant professor at the Harvard Medical School, who participated in the current study. "Curvature was often dismissed or, when examined, the theories were not entirely satisfactory. Now we have a theory that we have confirmed with a number of concrete examples using real ear shapes and hearing abilities."
Ketten provided Manoussaki and her collaborators with high-resolution CT scans of the cochleae of a number of different species of land and marine mammals. Together with her biophysicist colleagues, Manoussaki analyzed these shapes and found that low- frequency hearing limits of species ranging from mice to cats to cows to whales varied in step with the ratio of the radii of curvatures at their cochlea's base to that of its apex. This ratio varies from about two to nine: The larger it is the lower the frequencies that the animal can hear.
"This makes sense because the bigger the ratio, the tighter the spiral is wound and more of the sound wave energy in the low-frequency waves is forced against the cochlea's walls," Manoussaki says.
Animals like mice, which have a radii ratio of about two, can't hear much below 1000 hertz (Hz). Species like cows and elephants, which have a ratio of about nine, hear sounds as low as 20 Hz. The power of this approach is illustrated by the cat, guinea pig and sea lion. The cochlea of the cat is longer than that of the guinea pig, but the guinea pig has a ratio of 7.2 and can hear down to 47 Hz, while the cat, with a smaller ratio of 6.2, has a higher threshold of 55 Hz. Similarly, the sea lion has a basilar membrane three times as long as that of the guinea pig. But its radii ratio is 5.2, lower than either the cat or the guinea pig, and it cannot make out sounds below 180 Hz. (This limit is for the sea lion's hearing in air; under water it can hear down to 200 Hz.)
"What I like about this is that a macroscopic feature of the ear has such a major effect on our hearing," says Manoussaki. "As colleagues have pointed out, so much research today is done at the genetic and cellular level that you don't often see cases like this where simple geometry proves to be so important."

http://www.kubrussel.ac.be/visumath/opp10kl.pngWORD REPETITIONS IN THE QUR'AN (http://www.***********************/forum1/message541837/pg1)
Quote
from [link to www.harunyahya.com (http://www.harunyahya.com/miracles_of_the_quran_p4_01.php)]
Apart from the miraculous characteristics of the Qur'an which we have looked into so far, it also contains what we can term "mathematical miracles." There are many examples of this fascinating Qur'anic aspect. One example of this is the number of repetitions of certain words in the Qur'an. Some related words are surprisingly repeated the same number of times. Below is a list of such words and the number of repetitions in the Qur'an.
The statement of "seven heavens" is repeated seven times. "The creation of the heavens (khalq as-samawat)" is also repeated seven times.
"Day (yawm)" is repeated 365 times in singular form, while its plural and dual forms "days (ayyam and yawmayn)" together are repeated 30 times. The number of repetitions of the word "month" (shahar) is 12.
The number of repetitions of the words "plant" and "tree" is the same: 26
The word "payment or reward" is repeated 117 times, while the expression "forgiveness" (mughfirah), which is one of the basic morals of the Qur'an, is repeated exactly twice that amount, 234 times.
When we count the word "Say," we find it appears 332 times. We arrive at the same figure when we count the phrase "they said."
The number of times the words, "world" (dunya) and "hereafter" (akhira) are repeated is also the same: 115
The word "satan" (shaitan) is used in the Qur'an 88 times, as is the word "angels" (malaika).
The word faith (iman) (without genitive) is repeated 25 times throughout the Qur'an as is also the word infidelity (kufr).
The words "paradise" and "hell" are each repeated 77 times.
The word "zakah" is repeated in the Qur'an 32 times and the number of repetitions of the word "blessing" (barakah) is also 32.
The expression "the righteous" (al-abraar) is used 6 times but "the wicked" (al-fujjaar) is used half as much, i.e., 3 times.
The number of times the words "Summer-hot" and "winter-cold" are repeated is the same: 5.
The words "wine" (khamr) and "intoxication" (saqara) are repeated in the Qur'an the same number of times: 6
The number of appearances of the words "mind" and "light" is the same: 49.
The words "tongue" and "sermon" are both repeated 25 times.
The words "benefit" and "corrupt" both appear 50 times.
"Reward" (ajr) and "action" (fail) are both repeated 107 times.
"Love" (al-mahabbah) and "obedience" (al-ta'ah) also appear the same number of times: 83
The words "refuge" (maseer) and "for ever" (abadan) appear the same number of times in the Qur'an: 28.
The words "disaster" (al-musibah) and "thanks" (al-shukr) appear the same number of times in the Qur'an: 75.
"Sun" (shams) and "light" (nur) both appear 33 times in the Qur'an.
In counting the word "light" only the simple forms of the word were included.
The number of appearances of "right guidance" (al-huda) and "mercy" (al-rahma) is the same: 79
The words "trouble" and "peace" are both repeated 13 times in the Qur'an.
The words "man" and "woman" are also employed equally: 23 times.Will they not ponder the Qur’an? If it had been from other than Allah, they would have found many inconsistencies in it.
(Qur’an, 4:82)
The number of times the words "man" and "woman" are repeated in the Qur'an, 23, is at the same time that of the chromosomes from the egg and sperm in the formation of the human embryo. The total number of human chromosomes is 46; 23 each from the mother and father.
"Treachery" (khiyanah) is repeated 16 times, while the number of repetitions of the word "foul" (khabith) is 16.
"Human being" is used 65 times: the sum of the number of references to the stages of man's creation is the same: i.e.
Human being 65
Soil (turab) 17
Drop of Sperm (nutfah) 12
Embryo ('alaq) 6
A half formed lump of flesh (mudghah) 3
Bone ('idham) 15
Flesh (lahm) 12
TOTAL 65
The word "salawat" appear five times in the Qur'an, and Allah has commanded man to perform the prayer (salat) five times a day.
The word "land" appears 13 times in the Qur'an and the word "sea" 32 times, giving a total of 45 references. If we divide that number by that of the number of references to the land we arrive at the figure 28.888888888889%. The number of total references to land and sea, 45, divided by the number of references to the sea in the Qur'an, 32, is 71.111111111111%. Extraordinarily, these figures represent the exact proportions of land and sea on the Earth today.238

Blog: Russian Human Genome Project discovers Extraterrestrial
abilities to modify DNA through a "biological internet"
http://www.agoracosmopolitan.com/home/Frontpage/2007/05/15/images/biological_internet.jpgby Mary Rodwell [Excerpted]
Some recent Russian DNA discoveries documented by Grazyna Fosar and Franz Bludorf in their book Vernetzte Intelligenz have been summarised by Baerbel. ‘The human DNA is a biological Internet’ with evidence that DNA can be ‘influenced and reprogrammed by words and frequencies.’ This suggests that ‘our DNA is not only responsible for the construction of our body, but also serves as data storage and communication.’ The Russian scientists and linguists have found that the genetic code ‘follows the same rules as all our human languages.’ In effect, human language did not appear coincidentally but is a reflection of our DNA.
The Russian researchers believe that ‘Living chromosomes function just like a holographic computer using endogenous DNA laser radiation.

[COLOR="navy"]In experiments, the cream-based ultra-violet (UV) filters -- used to protect skin from the harmful effects of sun exposure -- caused bleaching of coral reefs even in small quantities, the study found.
Coral reefs are among the most biologically productive and diverse of ecosystems, and directly sustain half a billion people. But some 60 percent of these reef systems are threatened by a deadly combination of climate change, industrial pollution and excess UV radiation.
The new study, published in US journal Environmental Health Perspectives, has now added sun screens to the list of damaging agents, and estimates that up to 10 per cent of the world's reefs are at risk of sunscreen-induced coral bleaching.
Chemical compounds in sunscreen and other personal skin care products have been detected near both sea and freshwater tourist areas. Previous research has shown that these chemicals can accumulate in aquatic animals, and biodegrade into toxic by-products.
Researchers led by Roberto Danovaro at the University of Pisa in Italy added controlled amounts of three brands of sunscreen to seawater surrounding coral reefs in Mexico, Indonesia, Thailand and Egypt.
Even small doses provoked large discharges of coral mucous -- a clear sign of environmental stress -- within 18 to 48 hours. Within 96 hours complete bleaching of corals had occurred.
Virus levels in seawater surrounding coral branches increased to 15 times the level found in control samples, suggesting that sunscreens might stimulate latent viral infections, the study found.
Pesticides, hydrocarbons and other contaminants have also been found to induce algae or coral to release viruses, hastening the bleaching process.
According to the World Trade Organisation, around 10 per cent of tourism takes place in tropical areas, with 78 million tourists visiting coral reefs each year.
An estimated 4,000 to 6,000 tonnes of sunscreen are released annually in reef areas, with 25 per cent of the sunscreen ingredients on skin released into water over the course of a 20 minute submersion.
Sunscreens are made of around 20 compounds acting as UV filters and preservatives. Seven were tested for the study, including parabens, cinnamates, benzophenones and camphor derivatives.

1983 Artical about Planet X says it possibly the size of Jupiter
Quote
By Thomas O'Toole, Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, December 30, 1983 ; Page A1
A heavenly body possibly as large as the giant planet Jupiter and possibly so close to Earth
that it would be part of this solar system has been found in the direction of the constellation
Orion by an orbiting telescope aboard the U.S. infrared astronomical satellite.
So mysterious is the object that astronomers do not know if it is a planet, a giant comet, a
nearby "protostar" that never got hot enough to become a star, a distant galaxy so young that
it is still in the process of forming its first stars or a galaxy so shrouded in dust that none of the
light cast by its stars ever gets through.
"All I can tell you is that we don't know what it is," Dr. Gerry Neugebauer, IRAS chief
scientist for California's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and director of the Palomar Observatory
for the California Institute of Technology, said in an interview.
The most fascinating explanation of this mystery body, which is so cold it casts no light and
has never been seen by optical telescopes on Earth or in space, is that it is a giant gaseous
planet as large as Jupiter and as close to Earth as 50 trillion miles. While that may seem like a
great distance in earthbound terms, it is a stone's throw in cosmological terms, so close in fact
that it would be the nearest heavenly body to Earth beyond the outermost planet Pluto.
"If it is really that close, it would be a part of our solar system," said Dr. James Houck of
Cornell University's Center for Radio Physics and Space Research and a member of the
IRAS science team. "If it is that close, I don't know how the world's planetary scientists
would even begin to classify it."
The mystery body was seen twice by the infrared satellite as it scanned the northern sky from
last January to November, when the satellite ran out of the supercold helium that allowed its
telescope to see the coldest bodies in the heavens. The second observation took place six
months after the first and suggested the mystery body had not moved from its spot in the sky
near the western edge of the constellation Orion in that time.
"This suggests it's not a comet because a comet would not be as large as the one we've
observed and a comet would probably have moved," Houck said. "A planet may have moved
if it were as close as 50 trillion miles but it could still be a more distant planet and not have
moved in six months time."
Whatever it is, Houck said, the mystery body is so cold its temperature is no more than 40
degrees above "absolute" zero, which is 456 degrees Fahrenheit below zero. The telescope
aboard IRAS is cooled so low and is so sensitive it can "see" objects in the heavens that are
only 20 degrees above absolute zero.
When IRAS scientists first saw the mystery body and calculated that it could be as close as
50 trillion miles, there was some speculation that it might be moving toward Earth.
"It's not incoming mail," Cal Tech's Neugebauer said. "I want to douse that idea with as much
cold water as I can."
Then, what is it? What if it is as large as Jupiter and so close to the sun it would be part of the
solar system? Conceivably, it could be the 10th planet astronomers have searched for in vain.
It also might be a Jupiter-like star that started out to become a star eons ago but never got hot
enough like the sun to become a star.
While they cannot disprove that notion, Neugebauer and Houck are so bedeviled by it that
they do not want to accept it. Neugebauer and Houck "hope" the mystery body is a distant
galaxy either so young that its stars have not begun to shine or so surrounded by dust that its
starlight cannot penetrate the shroud.
"I believe it's one of these dark, young galaxies that we have never been able to observe
before," Neugebauer said.
"If it is, then it is a major step forward in our understanding of the size of the universe, how the
universe formed and how it continues to form as time goes on."
The next step in pinpointing what the mystery body is, Neuegebauer said, is to search for it
with the world's largest optical telescopes. Already, the 100-inch diameter telescope at Cerro
del Tololo in Chile has begun its search and the 200-inch telescope at Palomar Mountain in
California has earmarked several nights next year to look for it. If the body is close enough
and emits even a hint of light, the Palomar telescope should find it since the infrared satellite
has pinpointed its position.

Fifth Generation Warfare
by: Garrett Heaney and Justin Boland (http://www.wishtank.org/magazine/commons/fifth_generation_warfare/)
About a month ago, Justin Boland (http://thirtyseven.info/), our Director of Research, introduced us to a phrase we had never heard before — Fifth Generation Warfare (5GW). In fact, he dedicated one of our Sister Sites (Skilluminati.com (http://www.skilluminati.com/)) to its research. When Justin started writing about tactical military manuals, it made me a little nervous. Knowing his heart (http://amazon.com/gp/product/0762422955?ie=UTF8&tag=thelasmov-20&link_code=em1&camp=212341&creative=380425&creativeASIN=0762422955&adid=1c3043c6-699f-4358-9f62-10e214ba187d) is good, I decided it would be best if I contacted him for an interview. I think the resulting discussion is a good primer on Fifth Generation Warfare and the direction Skilluminati Research is moving.
Wishtank: There’s been some commentary around this question within the comment section of Skilluminati.com, but could you give us your definition of fifth generation warfare (5GW)? How might this differ from popular understandings of the phrase?
Justin Boland: “Solo warfare” would be the most concise. It’s slippery because both words are deceptive — “solo” implies that you’d never collaborate with other 5GW operatives, and “warfare” implies overt agression and violence.
I’m very much uncommitted to the 5GW orthodoxy, the framework is just another model to me and of course all models are toys. Toys for thinking and analysis, but toys just the same. I like to disassemble things to see how they work and ideas are no different.
In terms of the generations of war, I think the distinction between 3GW — traditional, nation versus nation warfare — and 4GW is very useful. 4GW is non-state “guerrilla” organizations going to war against nations, and it’s a great unsolved problem of our time. Nations all around the world are losing these wars right now, and the USA is no exception.
WT: It seems, to me at least, that you foresee something dangerous coming, and feel a personal responsibility to not only prepare for it, but to do everything you can to help others prepare for it as well. What do you see on the horizon that others might not?
JB: Well, let’s nail down the metaphor. The horizon is where something enters your view, and I’m not worried about the future at all. The future is over the horizon. I have no idea what the future will bring and I’m not really qualified to make predictions. I do see the present, though, and that’s what worries me.
Right now, we are dealing with a mass extinction of Earth species, exponentially rising toxic ocean pollution, and planet-wide bizarre health effects from the ambient levels of drugs and chemicals in our water and food. Global warming is not really a concern for me when you set it up against facts like that, I definitely think that’s a well-funded shiny distraction.
On a more Western level, our economy and our food supply are both in grave danger at the moment, although both of those are more of a managed crisis than a real problem. Reality is kind of grim right now.
WT: Do you fear it, and should I?
JB: No, fear is unhealthy and counterproductive.
For the same reasons I just listed, I also see immense opportunity. One of the most interesting 5GW concepts to me is the “Super-Empowered Individual” — someone who is brilliant enough to leverage technology, information and secrecy to acquire vast power that would have been unthinkable for a single human 100 years ago.
Bill Gates and Warren Buffet are homeboys
Richest man alive
These are people like George Soros and Warren Buffett, and people like Osama bin Laden and Henry Okah. There’s a remarkable parallel between the elites who profit from globalism and the “terrorists” who attack it. They both represent a serious theat to our future, and they’re both great innovators and opportunists.
WT: Who are humanity’s greatest enemies? How susceptible are they to 5GW?
JB: I recently came across a great quote from an anonymous African refugee who observerd “Chaos is the worst kind of oppression because you don’t know who to fight against.” In my short lifetime of observation and reading history, it does look like we’re making incremental gains in the face of exponential problems.
Our greatest enemy is ourselves, but if you dig deeper than that cliche you start thinking different. I’m starting to wonder if our great enemy is specifically about 10,000 of us, recently referred to as “The Superclass” in Newsweek, who profit the most from global exploitation and Shock Doctrine economics.
“Globalization” in it’s current form is highly susceptible to 5GW, especially since it never figured out how to defend against 4GW. The infrastructure is highly profitable but also highly volatile and insecure. This is how men like Henry Okah do billions of damage. They’re not superhumans, they just have accurate information and specialized knowledge. It doesn’t take an army, just the right weapon in the right place.
WT: Speaking of weapons and armies, does 5GW employ violence as earlier generations of warfare have?
JB: Not if it’s any good. 5GW is sometimes referred to as “Invisible Warfare” because of the emphasis on out-thinking your opponent and operating in secret.
I’ve been fascinated to see the parallels between warfare and marketing over the past century. The languages of advertising and mass persuasion are often identical — penetration, projection, triggering and targeting. There’s been a shift in emphasis from mass marketing and world warfare, to segmented marketing and counterinsurgency, and now viral marketing and 5GW share a common set of concepts as well. You could also write an essay exploring the links between urban marketing and urban warfare in the past decade, but it would be a fairly boring essay.
If there is violence, it will be largely inadvertent, if not entirely unintentional. Precise hits on vulnerable infrastructure will be getting more common in the next decade. I have no idea if that will lead to smaller, more resilient communities or towards a more iron-clad and energy-efficient version of globalist capitalism.
My focus is on open-source projects, cheap, low-tech empowerent, asymmetrical system design and energy independence. I think it’s important to be in on this conversation early, because the core problem globalist capitalism is facing right now is 4th Generation Warfare — they can’t beat it and they can barely even fight it.
Right now there’s hundreds of billions of Homeland Security dollars being wasted. Liars in ties are selling security systems for an infrastructure that cannot be secured. I’m rooting for the little guy, but the little guy is more interested in TV and it’s not like I’m getting paid for this. I am hopeful that we’re on the verge on a radical change, but realistically, we’re probably just headed for bigger, more expensive fences… control systems that make the sheep feel secure but do nothing to protect against actual wolves.
WT: I know you approached this question when you stated: “I’m writing for an audience very much like myself: post-nationalism, post-racism, post-religion human beings with no respect for authority, national borders or even the laws of physics,” but what do your readers value? What does Skilluminati provide its audience?
JB: Immediately useful information and concepts. Once we get the basic language and theory out of the way, I want to anchor everything in hands-on tactical advice.
There is a solution to 4GW: communities. As John Robb puts it, ”Resilient Communities,” small sustainable and secure. You need to create and distribute your own energy, food and water — that’s the only real solution to 4GW: build smaller and build safer.
So it’s going to be a balance, and an uneven one at that. The focus will be on understanding and practicing “super-empowerment” and I’m also focused on the community, defense aspect. I think that’s a more beneficial path to take than emphasizing first-hand destructive techniques, although I’ll still be addressing those.
WT: What is the most important piece of literature on your mind today?
Sun Tzu
JB: Absolutely, Sun Tzu. I see so many overlaps and curious parallels with the Tao Te Ching now, so The Art of War is a very different book to me than when I read it back in 2000. I want to distill the rich fabric of solo warfare into precise operational guidelines — a System of Best Practices, which Dr. Quandary recently put me onto.
As exciting as new technology is, I don’t think there’s anything fundamentally new in modern warfare. The history of Western Military Theory is just the story of how white people gradually caught on to Sun Tzu. Now it’s 2008 and we’re 95% there.
WT: Tell us more about “System of Best Practices.”
JB: It was the Audible Hype material that gave me an appreciation for business books and marketing science. The Skilluminati project has gotten me into the precision and brevity of military manuals and documents. Both of them share a certain stripped-down flavor that appeals to me.
As much as I’m a counterculture advocate, I have to admit I don’t pay much attention to the counterculture. I value clarity and simplicity just as much as creativity, and most of what I do with this zoo of Websites is distilling information.
A System of Best Practices is a written document distilling the most effective and efficient methods for getting task X done. So far, we haven’t finished any of them — they’re living rulebooks that evolve with your technique. I use to chafe at the thought of documenting or streamlining my creative process but it’s a project that’s long overdue.

rubbery cylinder filled with seawater is said to efficiently harvest the energy from ocean wavesEnlarge (http://environment.newscientist.com/article/dn14258-giant-rubber-snake-could-be-the-future-of-wave-power.html)
A giant rubber snake could be the future of renewable energy. The rippling "Anaconda" produces electricity as it is squeezed by passing waves. Its developers say it would produce more energy than existing wave-energy devices and be cheaper to maintain.
Retired physicist Francis Farley and Rod Rainey of Atkins Global (http://http://www.atkinsglobal.com/) dreamed up a flexible tube filled with seawater and sealed at both ends like a giant sausage. The structure streams out in the waves like a windsock pushed by the wind.
The passage of each wave squeezes the rubber and produces a bulging pressure wave that travels down its length. When the bulge reaches the end it sets turbines spinning to generate electricity.
Slippery customer
Eventually, full-scale versions should be 7 metres across, 200 m long and be anchored at one end in water between 40 m and 100 m deep.
For now, however, engineers John Chaplin and Grant Hearn at the University of Southampton are testing mini Anacondas, a few metres long, in a wave tank. "The top barely breaks the surface, and you can see the bulges moving down the tube," says Chaplin.
"In engineering terms, it is unlike any other offshore structure," he told New Scientist. "It's not a solid structure like an oil platform and it doesn't behave like a boat either."
Preliminary results are promising, says Chaplin. By tuning the diameter, flexibility and thickness of the rubber tube it is possible to make the Anaconda's pressure bulges travel at roughly the same speed as the waves outside. As a result they gradually gather more energy from the waves as they travel down the tube.
Snake scales
A full-scale device should produce 1 megawatt – enough to power around 2000 houses.
By comparison, each jointed steel cylinder of the Pelamis wave power system which is being trialled in Portugal generates just 0.75 MW.
Anaconda's unique design should also handle the greatest challenge of wave energy better. "The ocean is a very hostile environment," says Chaplin. "The structure has got to be there and still working after the largest storms." What's more, saltwater corrodes metal structures, making maintenance costs high, he says.
A rubber structure with few mechanical parts exposed to the sea should be more resilient. Chaplin hopes to have a one-third scale model for testing in the sea next year and says full-scale Anacondas could be commercially available in five years.

Scientists are reporting synthesis of the world's first DNA molecule made almost of entirely artificial parts. The discovery could be used in the fields of gene therapy and other futuristic high-tech advances, such as nano-sized computers. Courtesy of Masahiko Inouye
Chemists in Japan report development of the world's first DNA molecule made almost entirely of artificial parts. The finding could lead to improvements in gene therapy, futuristic nano-sized computers, and other high-tech advances, they say. Their study is scheduled for the July 23 issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
In the new study, Masahiko Inouye and colleagues point out that scientists have tried for years to develop artificial versions of DNA in order to extend its amazing information storage capabilities.
As the genetic blueprint of all life forms, DNA uses the same set of four basic building blocks, known as bases, to code for a variety of proteins used in cell functioning and development. Until now, scientists have only been able to craft DNA molecules with one or a few artificial parts, including certain bases.
The researchers used high-tech DNA synthesis equipment to stitch together four entirely new, artificial bases inside the sugar-based framework of a DNA molecule. This resulted in unusually stable, double-stranded structures resembling natural DNA.
Like natural DNA, the new structures were right-handed and some easily formed triple-stranded structures. The unique chemistry of these structures and their high stability offer unprecedented possibilities for developing new biotech materials and applications, the researchers say.

This has been really bugging me lately.I have been taking the same route to and from work everyday for over 2 years and suddenly last week i notice something different.There is one intersection i always almost have to wait at until I get a green arrow to take a turn.Sitting the other side of the intersection to my left is a Walgreens.This is the same road i take.It is a large building so it would be impossible to miss but i just noticed it.It is as if the building appeared out of nowhere.That spot was an empty lot with nothing on it and all of a sudden there is a large one story builing there.It just does not seem possible i never noticed it ,especialy since it is where I am stopped everyday where i am facing the building .Other buildings went up and i always noticed them .

Stem Cell Chicken and Egg Debate Moves to Unlikely Arena: The Testes
General Science / Biology
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/stemcellchic.jpg
The hub cells found at the tip of Drosophila testis are outlined with DE-cadherin (shown in red). A lineage tracing strategy, which marks somatic stem cells and their offspring with green flourescent protein, revealed that these cells are direct descendants of somatic stem cells.

Logic says it has to be the niche. As air and water preceded life, so the niche, that hospitable environment that shelters adult stem cells in many tissues and provides factors necessary to keep them young and vital, must have emerged before its stem cell dependents.
A team of scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies led by Leanne Jones, Ph.D., assistant professor in the Laboratory of Genetics, now suggests that this is not always the case. They report in the July 20 advance online edition of the journal Nature that the cells that comprise a specialized niche in the testis of fruit flies actually emerge from adult stem cells, a finding with implications for regenerative medicine, aging research, and cancer therapeutics.
Previously, investigators thought that a fruit fly's allotment of testis niche cells was handed out at birth and meant to last a lifetime. "What this paper demonstrates is that once a fly becomes an adult, some stem cells that function in spermatogenesis start making the very cells that support them," said Jones. "Once a fly develops into an adult, some of these niche cells can be replaced."
Using microscopy and fluorescent markers enabling them to image specific cell types over time, Jones' group, led by first author Justin Voog, actually caught a testis stem cell population in the act of turning into their own niche, known in the fly testis as the hub.
"We used a detailed lineage tracing strategy to differentiate between single somatic stem cells (SSCs) and hub cells," said Voog, an M.D./Ph.D. student in Jones' lab. The hub contains approximately 10 cells that secrete factors promoting self-renewal of two neighboring stem cell populations — germline stem cells, which become sperm, and SSCs, which develop into a structure that encapsulates maturing sperm. "We tracked cells over a period of days and saw that SSCs can generate not only other immature SSCs but their niche support cells," said Voog. By contrast, germline stem cells appeared incapable of generating hub cells.

Their study also explores the molecular basis of stem cell/niche interactions. "SSCs in the testis look similar to hub cells," explained Jones. "Both cell types express many of the same proteins." The team experimentally decreased levels of one of those — a sticky surface protein called DE-cadherin that likely allows stem cells to latch on to the support hub — but only in somatic stem cells. When they did so, DE-cadherin expression on hub cells also decreased, providing further circumstantial support for the idea that hub cells emerge from SSCs.
"Stem cell biology is a fast-moving field and insights from model organisms like Drosophila provide great insight into how stem cell behavior is regulated," said Voog. "The architecture of the fruit fly testis makes it an ideal system to address questions about what regulates stem cell interactions within the niche."
Jones agrees, noting that spermatogenesis is also a great system to manipulate experimentally. "Spermatogenesis is less complex than stem cell systems that give rise to multiple cell types, such as blood stem cells," she said. "Only one cell type emerges from the process—sperm—so if something goes wrong with the system it is readily apparent: you won't form any sperm."
According to Jones, mammalian stem cell niches are not so well characterized. Although their whereabouts in tissues like brain or bone marrow is known, how niche compartments relate to their respective neural or blood stem cell charges is an open question.
Issues raised by this study will have to be addressed in humans before good stem cells are exploited or bad ones are eradicated. Will stem cells transplanted in proposed regeneration therapies establish their own support crew or will a "niche transplant" be required to maintain them?
Or, do so-called cancer stem cells, which are thought to form the root of most tumors, create a structure analogous to the niche, and if they do, could it be targeted as anti-cancer therapy?
Jones says the onus is now on mammalian stem biologists to answer these questions. "In mammals the field is still at the point of identifying a stem cell, which precedes characterizing the cells that support them," said Jones. "In our system we can definitively say that some stem cells can create a microenvironment that enables them to survive. If I had to say whether similar processes occur in mammalian cells, I'd guess yes."

Yes. To be honest I have not kept up with this years Solar activity. None of my scopes are designed for Solar Observation.
I know it has been quiet and that we are in the normal cycle for low activity.
I did a mini "Star Party" last night in my back yard. Had some folks over that have never used a scope. It was quite cool to show them Jupiter in particular its Moons.

@@@@ Thanks, this makes a great deal of sense to me and I should have been able to come to a basic conclusion on my own, but sometimes my emotions get the best of me. Thank you for the in depth explanation, it helps a lot.
It is understood now that you can't just immediately pull out the artificial foundation from under humanity as that may cause more harm that good. Can certain things be completely ceased immediately though? For example, if the chemtrailing suddenly ceased, this would be beneficial to humanity without causing any sort of damage. Also they could stop the funneling of tax dollars/dollars from the crashing economy into maintenance underground bunkers could they not? Stopping either of these operations would not likely have a detrimental effect on humanity as most people do not even believe these activities exist. Stopping chemtrailing would allow more free thinking and less sickness, and stopping the unscrupulously obtained wealth from being put into bunker maintenance would allow for it to be used for more beneficial causes.
Is there a reason it is not plausible to do this? Am I missing something?

While the magnetic flux through a closed surface is always zero, the magnetic flux through an open surface is an important quantity in electromagnetism. For example, a change in the magnetic flux passing through a loop of conductive wire will cause an electromotive force, and therefore an electric current, in the loop. The relationship is given by Faraday's law:
where (see Figure 3):http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/d/3/b/d3ba36088021513d8effcd2d5833cd96.png
E is the EMF,
Φm is the flux through a surface with an opening bounded by a curve ∂Σ(t),
∂Σ(t) is a closed contour that can change with time; the EMF is found around this contour, and the contour is a boundary of the surface over which Φm is found,
dℓ is an infinitesimal vector element of the contour ∂Σ(t),
v is the velocity of the segment dℓ,
E is the electric field,
B is the magnetic field.
The EMF is determined in this equation in two ways: first, as the work per unit charge done against the Lorentz force in moving a test charge around the (possibly moving) closed curve ∂Σ(t), and second, as the magnetic flux thorough the open surface Σ(t).
This equation is the principle behind an electrical generator.

Scientists are reporting synthesis of the world's first DNA molecule made almost of entirely artificial parts. The discovery could be used in the fields of gene therapy and other futuristic high-tech advances, such as nano-sized computers. Courtesy of Masahiko Inouye
Chemists in Japan report development of the world's first DNA molecule made almost entirely of artificial parts. The finding could lead to improvements in gene therapy, futuristic nano-sized computers, and other high-tech advances, they say. Their study is scheduled for the July 23 issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
In the new study, Masahiko Inouye and colleagues point out that scientists have tried for years to develop artificial versions of DNA in order to extend its amazing information storage capabilities.
As the genetic blueprint of all life forms, DNA uses the same set of four basic building blocks, known as bases, to code for a variety of proteins used in cell functioning and development. Until now, scientists have only been able to craft DNA molecules with one or a few artificial parts, including certain bases.
The researchers used high-tech DNA synthesis equipment to stitch together four entirely new, artificial bases inside the sugar-based framework of a DNA molecule. This resulted in unusually stable, double-stranded structures resembling natural DNA.
Like natural DNA, the new structures were right-handed and some easily formed triple-stranded structures. The unique chemistry of these structures and their high stability offer unprecedented possibilities for developing new biotech materials and applications, the researchers say.

A 'New Dimension' at the LHC
By Laura Mgrdichian, Physics / Physics (http://www.physorg.com/news135938428.html)Published: 3 hours ago, 09:40 EST,
(PhysOrg.com) -- Later this year, the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva, Switzerland, will begin operating, sending beams of protons hurling around circular tracks in opposite directions at nearly light-speed and then forcing them to collide, producing a spray of energy and matter.

Scientists' hopes are high for the LHC, with many yearning that its detectors will record evidence of undiscovered theorized particles and new physics. In that respect, a group of physicists considers a new possible discovery: a new dimension. At the LHC, the proton collisions will be powerful enough to probe incredibly minute size scales, perhaps minute enough to open a tiny new dimension.
"While the LHC may uncover what appears to be an extra dimension, it could really be a hologram of some more complicated physics theory," said physicist Veronica Sanz of Boston Univeristy and York University in Ontario, Canada, to PhysOrg.com. Sanz is one of three physicists involved in the study.
By "hologram," Sanz and her colleagues aren't referring to a flat image that appears three dimensional. Rather, in the context of particle physics, holography imagines an extra dimension to handle the calculations of strongly interacting systems, like LHC collisions.
Added physicist Adam Martin of Yale University, "LHC could discover a new type of strong interactions wildly different from the strong nuclear force we already know from the Standard Model."
The strong nuclear force is one of the four fundamental physics forces and is what keeps atomic nuclei together, mediated by gluons. The other three forces are the electromagnetic, gravitational, and weak forces. The strong, weak, and EM forces, and the particles that experience them, are all described by a sweeping physics theory known as the Standard Model (gravity is ignored because it is so weak by comparison).
But the Standard Model isn't quite complete: One particle, the proposed "Higgs boson," has yet to be discovered. It is the missing piece of the Standard Model and perhaps the "Holy Grail" of LHC results. If found, it could tell scientists about the origins of mass itself, and why matter can be made of elementary particles that are essentially massless. The Higgs, they think, is responsible for assigning masses to those elementary particles.
But the Higgs may not exist, or may not be found. And if not, Standard Model calculations become unwieldy, as only with the Higgs do the calculations make sense. But a new physical dimension, if only an imaginary one, could make such calculations easier.
"For all we know, extra dimensions may be nature's way of computing the masses of particles," says the study's corresponding scientist, Yale University physicist Johannes Hirn.
This research is published in the May 23, 2008, online edition of the Journal of High Energy Physics.

Scientists create touch-based illusion
General Science / Biology
Anyone who has seen an optical illusion can recall the quirky moment when you realize that the image being perceived is different from objective reality. Now, a team of scientists from MIT, Harvard and McGill has designed a new illusion involving the sense of touch, which is helping to glean new insights into perception and how different senses—such as touch and sight—work together.
Ambiguous visual images are fascinating because it is often difficult to imagine seeing them any other way—until something flips within the brain and the alternative perception is revealed. This phenomenon, known as perceptual rivalry, is of great interest to neuroscience. Because rivalrous illusions produce changes in perception that are independent of changes in the stimulus itself, they may help to understand how the brain gives rise to conscious experience.
"The most familiar illusions involve vision," explains Christopher Moore, a principal investigator at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT and an assistant professor in MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences. "But we're interested in discovering general principles of perception, and we wanted to see whether similar illusions can occur in the tactile domain."
Moore is senior author of a paper on the new illusion published on the Current Biology web site on July 17.
In the visual illusion known as the apparent motion quartet, two dots are presented at diagonally opposite corners of an imaginary square. When the pattern alternates between the two diagonals—top left/bottom right followed by top right/bottom left—people perceive the dots as moving back and forth either horizontally or vertically. After a period of time, typically a minute or two, most observers report that the axis of motion appears to flip from vertical to horizontal or vice versa.
To create a tactile version of this illusion, Olivia Carter, a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard University, and Talia Konkle, a graduate student in Moore's MIT lab, used a new piezoelectric stimulator device developed by Qi Wang and Vincent Hayward at McGill University. This device, originally designed as a computer Braille display, uses a centimeter-square array composed of 60 "tactors" to deliver precisely controlled touch stimuli to the finger tips of volunteer subjects.
When volunteer subjects were given the diagonally alternating stimuli, they perceived them as moving smoothly back and forth—and just as with the visual illusion, the direction of apparent motion flipped back and forth from vertical to horizontal, on average about twice per minute, even though there was no change in the stimulus itself.
The authors went on to show that after a period of adaptation to an unambiguous horizontal or vertical stimulation (produced by activating a row of tactors in succession), subjects were more likely to perceive a subsequent ambiguous stimulus as being in the orthogonal direction. Similar after-effects are common in vision and were once thought to reflect fatigue in the brain circuits responsible for a particular perceptual interpretation, but are now thought to reflect a continual recalibration of the brain to its sensory environment. In another experiment, an ambiguous touch stimulus was interrupted by a three-second break, after which subjects tended to experience the same direction as before the break, suggesting that the prior interpretation was somehow retained in memory and used to reinterpret the ambiguous stimulus.
Real-world objects often stimulate multiple senses simultaneously, and our brains must combine these disparate stimuli into a unified interpretation of the world. The authors used their tactile illusion to explore the interaction between touch and vision. They instructed their subjects to make vertical or horizontal eye movements during the ambiguous touch stimuli. Subjects perceived that the direction of tactile motion shifted into alignment with the direction of the eye movements, but only if the head and finger were also aligned. Tilting the head sideways 90 degrees produced a shift to the other direction—suggesting that the tactile and visuomotor systems are somehow aligned with respect to the external world.
"We don't yet understand what's happening in the brain during these illusions," says Konkle. "But we think this illusion will be a useful new tool to understand more about the similarities between different sensory modalities and how they all work together."

Solar power from Sahara will
keep Europe’s lights on
Foreign Staff (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article4381687.ece)
European politicians are discussing ambitious plans to harvest the energy of the Saharan sun, connecting a vast network of solar panels to electricity grids across the continent. According to The Guardian, the project, estimated to cost up to £35.7 billion, is backed by Gordon Brown and President Sarkozy of France.
The project is still at an early stage and faces daunting financial and technological obstacles. Solar power’s supporters say it will take ten years for it to become economically competitive, and while undersea cables to Sicily and Spain are planned for construction in 2010-2012, it is not known how they will be financed.
As the world grows increasingly anxious about climate change and dwindling fossil fuels, ideas that once sounded like science fiction are becoming ever more plausible.
The EU last year set a mandatory target of producing 20 per cent of its energy consumption from renewable sources by 2020, and there are also big political imperatives in play.
Finally an idea that could get us somewhere ...

Shocking Menace of Satellite Surveillance (Part II)
by John Fleming
…continued.
Click here (http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/08-09-2008/106313-Satellite_Surveillance-0)to read Shocking Menace of Satellite Surveillance (Part I)
There are various other satellite powers, such as manipulating electronic instruments and appliances like alarms, electronic watches and clocks, a television, radio, smoke detector and the electrical system of an automobile. For example, the digital alarm on a watch, tiny though it is, can be set off by a satellite from hundreds of miles up in space. And the light bulb of a lamp can be burned out with the burst of a laser from a satellite. In addition, street lights and porch lights can be turned on and off at will by someone at the controls of a satellite, the means being an electromagnetic beam which reverses the light’s polarity. Or a lamp can be made to burn out in a burst of blue light when the switch is flicked. As with other satellite powers, it makes no difference if the light is under a roof or a ton of concrete--it can still be manipulated by a satellite laser. Types of satellite lasers include the free-electron laser, the x-ray laser, the neutral-particle-beam laser, the chemical-oxygen-iodine laser and the mid-infra-red advanced chemical laser.
Along with mind-reading, one of the most bizarre uses of a satellite is to physically assault someone. An electronic satellite beam--using far less energy than needed to blast nuclear missiles in flight--can “slap” or bludgeon someone on earth. A satellite beam can also be locked onto a human target, with the victim being unable to evade the menace by running around or driving around, and can cause harm through application of pressure on, for example, one’s head. How severe a beating can be administered from space is a matter of conjecture, but if the ability to actually murder someone this way has not yet been worked out, there can be no doubt that it will soon become a reality. There is no mention in satellite literature of a murder having been committed through the agency of a satellite, but the very possibility should make the world take note.

This mudra is good for: stresses and strains, insomnia, emotional instability, indecisiveness, excessive anger, idleness, laziness, indolence, and is a great help in increasing memory and I.Q. It can help cure sleeplessness and get one off sleeping pills where these are being taken.
There are a number of variations of this mudra for higher and higher degrees of attainment e.g. Purna Gyan Mudra, Vairagya Mudra, Abhay Mudra, Varad Mudra, Dhyan Mudra, Mahagyan Mudra. As one keeps attaining higher and higher levels of the mind, the mudra's change.

"The scientists concentrated on bacteria. More than 500 different species of bacteria exist in our bodies, making up more than 100 trillion cells. Because our bodies are made of only some several trillion human cells, we are somewhat outnumbered by the aliens. It follows that most of the genes in our bodies are from bacteria, too."

We learn that Gods travel in Space-Ships called Vimanas (�Flies like a bird�) � of which Hindu and Buddhist temples are shaped after, called rathas (chariots). They are built by Ribhus and Vishvakarma � their architect. The Demons in the Universe have theirs constructed by Asuramaya or Venus � as also do demonic humans.

Mother of man - 3.2 million years ago
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/prehistoric_life/human/human_evolution/images/human_evolution_article_big1.jpg
One fossil discovery above all has transformed views of how we became human. But who was Lucy, and why is she so important to human evolution?
Lucy was discovered in 1974 by anthropologist Professor Donald Johanson and his student Tom Gray in a maze of ravines at Hadar in northern Ethiopia.
Johanson and Gray were out searching the scorched terrain for animal bones in the sand, ash and silt when they spotted a tiny fragment of arm bone.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/prehistoric_life/human/human_evolution/images/human_evolution_article_small1.jpg
Johanson and Gray named their fossil skeleton Lucy, after the Beatles song 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds'. Lucy may have looked something like this.
Discovery of a lifetime
Johanson immediately recognised it as belonging to a hominid. As they looked up the slope, they saw more bone fragments: ribs, vertebrae, thighbones and a partial jawbone.
They eventually unearthed 47 bones of a skeleton - nearly 40% of a hominid, or humanlike creature, that lived around 3.2 million years ago. Based on its small size, and pelvic shape, they concluded it was female and named it 'Lucy' after 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds', the Beatles song playing on the radio when Johanson and his team were celebrating the discovery back at camp.

The Emperor of China (Chinese: 皇帝; pinyin: Huángdì) refers to any sovereign of Imperial China reigning since the founding of the Qin Dynasty in 221 BC until the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1912. When referred to as the Son of Heaven (天子), a title created in the late Shang dynasty, the Emperor was recognized as the ruler of "All under heaven" (i.e., the world). In practice not every Emperor was the holder of the highest power of his land, though this was largely the case.physorg-news (http://www.physorg.com/news100877977.html)

We have Steve Willner from Labyrinth of the Psychonaut back with us on the program to discuss his triple episode team up with Jake Kotze and to further explore the topics of CERN, that did their first test run on the 7th anniversary of 9/11. Join us for a fascinating discussion. Topics Discussed: 666, WWW, Spiritual Science, Shiva, Higgs Particle/God Particle, Scientists Received Death Threats, Quakes, Dubai's Tower of Babel: Burj, Energy, Rik Clay, Gate, Octagon, "Who is watching the Watchers?", Fake Alien Invasion, Black Water, Bear claw Logo, Benjamin Fulford, Jericho, The All Seeing Eye, Sanpaku Eye, 1776, 2010, 2012, Hurricanes, Oil, The Watchmen, 13 Floor, The Lawnmower Man, The Fisher King, The Matrix, The Stars & Movie Stars, Babylon A.D., Inspiration, working with the muse and much more.
By the looks of this Mayan image taken from one of their Pyramids, it looks like the Hadron Collider in Cern could have more uses than we believe.
Seem like the Mayans used it as some kind of portal or gateway to the stars and Gods.

The sorting process may look just like this being described here. Those staying on Earth would continue here, while the others would "dissappear" to other locations of etheral differential.
The Earth doesn't necessarily HAVE to get plowed in, although that would seem to be the necessary way to refresh this place. But who knows, that was always Lucifer's gangs methods and may not be needed at all with the new caretakers. We shall soon see. http://209.85.12.236/4826/126/emo/angel1.gif

Interference and Diffraction in Optics (http://mysite.du.edu/~etuttle/optics/ywave.htm)
The refractive index (or index of refraction) of a medium is a measure for how much the speed of light (or other waves such as sound waves) is reduced inside the medium. For example, typical glass has a refractive index of 1.5, which means that in glass, light travels at 1 / 1.5 = 0.67 times the speed of light in a vacuum. Two common properties of glass and other transparent materials are directly related to their refractive index. First, light rays change direction when they cross the interface from air to the material, an effect that is used in lenses and glasses. Second, light reflects partially from surfaces that have a refractive index different from that of their surroundings.

Bubbles and Interference
Saturday, March 15, 2008 by twilit.wordpress.com (http://twilit.wordpress.com/2008/03/15/bubbles-and-interference/)
This week, you shall be entertained with the physics of soap bubbles! Soap-bubble rainbows are caused by thin-film interference. When a light ray strikes the film of of soap bubble, some of the light reflects off of the film’s top surface (Ray 1). Other rays (Ray 2), however, pass into the film, reflect off of the bottom surface of the bubble, and passes back through the film.
http://twilit.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/bubble.jpg
Ray 1 changes phase 180° as it reflects (which only happens when light reflects off a material with a higher index of refraction than the medium it is traveling in), and Ray 2 does not change phase as it reflects but it travels an extra distance through the film. This results in a path length difference of about 2x the thickness of the film.
So you end up with the two different rays being either in phase with each other (constructive interference), completely out of phase (destructive interference), or somewhere in between. The path length difference at a certain point on a soap bubble might cause destructive interference for blue light, but constructive interference for red light. You’ll end up seeing red at that spot.

When you wash your hands today, take a moment to bask in the loveliness of soap bubbles! ^ ^

The Law of One, Book I (formerly The Ra Material)
By an humble messenger of the Law of One
When a planetary civilization reaches a certain level of evolution it is possible for its consciousness to blend and for each entity in that civilization to have access to all of the knowledge of every other entity who ever lived in that civilization, much like Jung’s collective unconscious of humanity becoming consciously available to each person on Earth. In THE LAW OF ONE, Book One, we find that this process is now culminating on planet Earth as 75,000 years of human evolution of mind, body, and spirit is about to produce its fruit.
Millions of years ago the consciousness of the planet Venus blended into the “social memory complex” known in Earth’s history as Ra. When such a blending has taken place the primary method for such civilizations to further their evolution and union with the Creator is by offering their service to less advanced civilizations who call for aid in their own evolution. Eleven thousand years ago Ra answered such a call from the Egyptians and for a short time walked the Earth in order to teach the Law of One in person. At a later time Ra also built many of the pyramids for use by the Egyptians in healing and initiation, but because the Egyptians worshipped Ra as a god and distorted Ra’s teaching of the Law of One, Ra was forced to leave the Egyptians and wait for another opportunity to balance the distortions in the Law of One for which it felt responsible.
On January 15, 1981, our research group was unexpectedly contacted by Ra when one of our members went into deep trance seemingly quite by accident. The format of the contact was quickly defined as question and answer only, and the first 26 sessions of the on-going contact were collected in Book One of THE LAW OF ONE. This book describes the mechanics of the spiritual evolution in which each entity on Earth is now participating and methods for accelerating that evolution.
Book One contains a great deal of information on the history of Earth’s spiritual evolution, Atlantis, Mu, and the unique situation that was created by the transfer of entities to Earth from many locations throughout the universe so that they could repeat the third density experience that is now ending on Earth. Also discussed is the destruction of the planet Maldek, the attempts at conquest of Earth by the Orion group which is of negative polarization, the Confederation of Planets which is of a positive polarization, and the Council of Nine located within the rings of Saturn which serves as Guardian for Earth. Book One covers in detail the “harvest” into fourth density occurring shortly after the year 2,000, the nature of Wanderers, the densities of this octave of creation and the nature of each density. Also given is much information concerning the healing process and some basic exercises for those desiring to become healers.
Ra, being from the density of unity, sees all these activities as “the Creator knowing Itself” and, as Ra says, “In truth there is no right or wrong. There is no polarity for all will be, as you would say, reconciled at some point in your dance through the mind/body/spirit complex which you amuse yourself by distorting in various ways at this time. This distortion is not in any case necessary. It is chosen by each of you as an alternative to understanding the complete unity of thought which binds all things. You are not speaking of similar or somewhat like entities or things. You are every thing, every being, every emotion, every event, every situation. You are unity. You are infinity. You are love/light; light/love. You are. This is the Law of One.”
Book One contains Sessions #1 through #26.

DEVI-DHAMA
This material world is the realm of Durga who is the material energy in her personal form.
http://truthdisclosed.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/visnudurga.jpg
“The goddess Durga was decorated with flower garlands, smeared with sandalwood pulp and dressed with excellent garments and ornaments made of valuable jewels. Holding in her hands a bow, a trident, arrows, a shield, a sword, a conchshell, a disc and a club, and being praised by celestial beings like Apsaras, Kinnaras, Uragas, Siddhas, Caranas and Gandharvas, who worshiped her with all kinds of presentations, she spoke as follows.” (SB 10.4.10-11)
http://truthdisclosed.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/jiva.jpg
I, jiva, am now just a transcendental sparkle of an atomic size and according to my desire and karma I take birth in various material bodies one after another (the cycle of birth and death, or samsara) within this world characterized by all-pervading presence of birth, death, old age and disease (janma-mrtyu-jara-vyadhi). These are symptoms of my conditioned life based on my identification with matter. During my whole stay here I am accompanied by the Lord in His invisible form of Paramatma (Supersoul) in my heart. He lets me act according to my desires and witnesses and approves my actions.
http://truthdisclosed.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/haridhama.jpg
Paramatma - “I am seated in everyone’s heart, and from Me come remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulness. By all the Vedas, I am to be known. Indeed, I am the compiler of Vedanta, and I am the knower of the Vedas.” (BG 15.15)
“Sri Krsna, the Personality of Godhead, who is the Paramatma [Supersoul] in everyone’s heart and the benefactor of the truthful devotee, cleanses desire for material enjoyment from the heart of the devotee who has developed the urge to hear His messages, which are in themselves virtuous when properly heard and chanted.” (SB 1.2.17)
“One who worships the Deity of Godhead in the temples but does not know that the Supreme Lord, as Paramatma, is situated in every living entity’s heart, must be in ignorance and is compared to one who offers oblations into ashes.” (SB 3.29.22)

Dark matter 'bridge to nowhere' found
in cosmic void

A line of 14 galaxies seems to be strung along a filament of dark matter. This image, reconstructed from observations from the 40-inch Wise Observatory telescope in Israel, shows the relative positions of the galaxies, which lie about 2 million light years away. Blue regions are where the most stars are forming (Image: A Zitrin)
More than a dozen galaxies seem to be lined up along a bridge of dark matter inside a region of nearly empty space. This 'bridge to nowhere' could shed light on how small galaxies formed in the early universe.
Galaxies in the universe are arranged in a lacy structure that contains many holes, or voids, that are largely bereft of galaxies. But the voids are not completely empty; astronomers expect they are criss-crossed by filaments of dark matter.
Now, astronomers have found a total of 14 galaxies that appear to be part of a dark matter bridge at least 1.5 million light years long.
The string of galaxies spans just 0.5% of a 'mini-void' – a region of space containing mostly dim, dwarf galaxies kept small by their relative isolation from other matter. But the underlying dark matter bridge may be far longer than that.
New stars
All of the galaxies are small dwarfs that seem to be unrelated. But Adi Zitrin and Noah Brosch of Tel Aviv University in Israel noticed that they all seemed to be arrayed in a line.
Further study revealed that after more than a billion years of inactivity, all of the galaxies began forming stars again less than 30 million years ago.
That was unexpected, since new star formation often occurs when galaxies interact, and these seem to be keeping to themselves. Nearby galaxies, for example, did not seem to have more star formation than those lying farther away.
"This is a strange thing," Brosch told New Scientist. "A priori, one would not expect galaxies that have nothing to do with each other, a few million light years apart, to make stars at the same time."
Giant cloud
That synchronisation seems to suggest that the galaxies have come into contact with new, star-forming material, like a passing cloud of gas.
Ordinarily, the gas would be too tenuous to condense down and cause a new burst of star formation. But if a swath of dark matter is connecting the galaxies, its gravity could help concentrate the material, Brosch says.
If all the gas were part of one cloud, it would have to be 20 times the diameter of the Milky Way to fuel the galaxies' star formation.
If the galaxies are pinned to a filament of dark matter, further study could help illuminate how star formation occurred in the early universe, Brosch told New Scientist. That's because the first galaxies are thought to have gotten their start when gas accumulated around denser regions of dark matter.
Too slow
Some caution it may be too early to say for sure whether the galaxies lie along a dark matter filament. "I think that is an interesting hypothesis, but a far cry from a solidly confirmed conclusion," says John Huchra of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Galaxies that are strongly bound by gravity should move quickly relative to each other. But these galaxies move too slowly to suggest there is a massive amount of dark matter hidden away, Huchra told New Scientist.
Solidifying the case for a filament might be possible by observing objects lying behind the void. If their light is bent travelling through the void, the gravitational effect of unseen dark matter could be to blame, Huchra says.
Brosch agrees that the results are still preliminary. He says further observations with larger telescopes could reveal more about the star formation history of the galaxies and show the order in which new material entered the area.

“WE SELECT YOU WITHOUT YOU KNOWING IT.
At the proper moment: once you have become important enough, fully public, and made enough mistakes... we exact our penance.”
[link to www.***********************]
I want to thank ‘535’ and others like him for sharing with us irrespective of what I am about to write. I was recently made aware of user ‘535’ and I’d like to share my observations and conclusions.
It is with regret that I witness a slight peddling of the 'overpopulation' crisis for a means to justify ‘God-Like’ authority granted to certain chosen people to thereby cull LIFE as they deem necessary and to shape the world as they see fit. ‘535’ wishes to convince us that the highest ideal is based merely upon the notion that 'they' can be the gentler ‘cull’ for all of humanity; for humanity would be far better served this way than can be nature if we let nature run her own course. This way of thinking, is consistent of the FALSEHOOD that there is no other way, and that there are not any spiritual forces that wish a different path for mankind, or that those various forces are in opposition with each other. The new movie called “Blindness” is about people ‘blind to the spirit’ or what is not found on the surface, although the movie is not saying such on the surface. It is what lies hidden that is often overlooked.
Few men besides our illustrious leaders, Popes or Kings would proclaim themselves a hero in light of the fact of murder. ‘535’ seemingly does this but without the direct approach in asking for our approval. In fact, it’s almost as if he is asking for our pity. He avoids over- religious discussion (which many of us appreciate) so certainly one would have little reason to think he is in any way a person affiliated with any particular form of religious faith. He mentioned (I believe) that he was Christian in one post but I must assume that unless it was not the real ‘535’, than he’s just using that word ‘Christian’ for ‘whatever’ reason. Yet it would be uncalled for myself or anyone else to imply that when ‘535’ wrote “…..we exact our penance.” that it meant anything more than a simple expression. (Hint)
Indeed, just as the true nature of the ‘cold gaze’ of materialism is found in expression, so too did the religious institutions feel the full effect of moving toward modernization. It is cold and calculating, such is Ahriman. The plan to turn us into the “New Man” as Hitler put it.
‘535’ is not sharing what is possibly the most important of all matters. I stress the importance here: The true ideals which ‘535’ serves are having more to do with creating a ‘soulless machine” than about curtailing overpopulation. The ultimate task for them now is to have our blessing – through fear and through bloodshed, the sacrifice must be chosen by them for occult purposes. If you do not understand what lies beneath the surface then you would ONLY accept overpopulation as the final justification in Paraguay and other such countries. Each country has its OWN connection to the peoples, the various spiritual guardians that look upon the people. In Paraguay, to properly decimate the peoples, this spiritual connection had first to be broken through a systematic attempt of destroying the Indigenousness people’s Conscious Soul and to send man into an animalistic state. This is black magic used in the very worst of its kind. They continued this experiment using Lenin and then later using Stalin to help bring it back into check when things got out of control. I’m sure ‘535’ would agree that when the ‘beast was about to devour its parents’ in America and in Rome, that Stalin and Hitler did quite a service in helping to direct to curtail it. During WW1 and WW2, who were the majority to perish? And now over 2000 more people are dead in South Ossetia as a blood sacrifice – not to curtail overpopulation. The hidden objectives which have not been revealed are all part of having you allow the vampire into your bedroom. The scam: You MUST now accept that ‘535’ and others like him are given little choice and you are to view them as ‘heroes’, doing really dirty jobs that few else can handle.
In ancient times, the Chinese doctors had a term for fat people... they called them of Royalty or something like that. Simply put... Only rich people could afford to be fat. Today it’s viewed from the other angle. My point: Things are only the way they say it is now because it is essentially what they WANT. Whether we can stop it is irrespective of the fact that we must begin to see it as such –do not view the matter of sorts from the perspective that ‘they’ are serving the higher ideal. They are not! Again, what they serve is a self-serving only ideal.
.In creating an environment of cold calculating logic, I have mentioned it elsewhere that the true nature of the Opium war in China was not to make certain families rich, but to re-direct the souls into European body’s and to prevent certain advanced souls from incarnating into Europe. Read closely what ‘535’ has written in the past and you will discover that he is selling us on the overpopulation myth that was already resolved by men like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in the past. ‘535’ displays what we term “Baconian Reasoning“ and that reasoning states that nature must have all her secrets ripped out and extracted, it must be probed, poked and torn rather than freely given unto us. It's like Goethe vs. Sir Francis Bacon being played out on a massive scale.
A certain movie staring Morgan freeman was recently shown in theaters. The story has something to do with selecting names from a destiny-weaving machine. Now what was the final conclusion determined in that movie and who were these destiny-weaving machines truly serving?
In any case, we see OVERPOPULATION being used by ‘535’ as the machine designed to serve its masters. The masters thus grant themselves the right to choose. If we press ‘535’ on the matter, I’m sure the final conclusion would still be “We will look after ourselves FIRST and foremost ONLY, irrespective if the human race survives”. ‘535’ states the complete opposite. He states that they are most interested in the preservation of the human race.
In dealing with Overpopulation a problem here arises "Can anyone argue against the mathematics?” “Can we save humanity another way than what math says". “What about the doubling effect for a population” etc.
YES WE CAN.
I hope all of you truly search and discover the higher ideal. Whether you ask what does Christ/Krishna/Buddha prefer, or you ask only YOURSELF, I think you’ll find that those dark forces at play are BANKING on your inability and your fear to ponder such matters and to think outside the box which they themselves have constructed for you.
Perhaps, all of you might soon start asking?

Assume you knew as 100% fact, that an event would happen that would cut the planetary food supply by 75%. Given the power and control, would you:
A. Assume that "nature will run its course", allow all scientific advancement in medicine, electronics, space, etc.. be eliminated in the wink of an eye? Think of it. EVERYTHING that has been accomplished over the course of thousands of years... gone. Additionally, because you do nothing with this power and information, many more would die than is necessary due to the lawless nature and lack of organization that would doom millions to a slow death. No ability in the future to manufacture food on a massive industrial scale, no ability to manufacture medicine on a massive industrial scale... this equals DEATH on a massive scale. More massive than you could possibly imagine. You would, by extension, be guilty of the very thing you accuse other of: Genocide.
OR
B. Do the best you can with the tools given you. Make the hard choices. Understand that nature IS running its course by allowing the most intelligent creature (on this planet, at least) survival of not only the species, but of the collective knowledge of humans. You will also ensure the maximum number of humans will survive.
It is hubris to pretend to peer into the mind of God. We MUST prevail, despite the mines put before us.
We must have the intelligence to leap over them rather than walk aimlessly into our own collective death.
We will win. WE ALWAYS DO. That is the nature of things. Much slack has been given, but that time is OVER. You WILL do as you are told in the future, or this future will not have a place for you. It is not about control for the sake of control... those days are OVER. It is about control for the sake of survival.

You love to talk of hubris but it's amazing how you never seem to make the internal connection. Your pride allows you to pretend that God's will or mind can't be known to justify the things that you do. We may not be able to comprehend God's mind but He's made it quite clear how we are to act towards each other.
Option C, which you never even considered, is to give people the truth to do with as they will. What difference does it make if humanity perishes? That is a battle that one way or another we will eventually lose. I'd rather us all die with the truth than be herded by delusional people such as yourself. The point of life is not just the survival or propagation of the species. You seem to have missed that somewhere along the line. You'd be well advised to spend the remaining time you have meditating on that.

“If a man knew the past, he would know what the future holds; both are linked to the present as a whole complete in itself.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
‘535’, it was never about you enforcing order for the survival of humanity. There will be some major and minor events; how many of them will be self-fulfilling prophecies? This is about your maintaining control by way of dealing with a much smaller populace because you admitted it yourself that more power held in the hands of fewer men is much easier to control. In the past, the Roman dignitaries considered it prudent to use more people in the lower ranks, for more people would be working in their favor. Indeed, times have changed. Today, you can no longer maintain control over the same sized mass due to the nature by which man has advanced. Thus the fewer people you to have to deceive, the better off you are. Falsehoods cause disease and today people are sicker than ever before. And it is in man’s nature to eventually seek out a cure for it. It is inevitable. It is this striving to awaken that you’re in opposition to, whether you know it or not.
But let us assume, if not for the moment that this was your true intended purpose……
You continue to reduce the population of people on the earth through an infringement upon their free-will because you assume that nature had not even intended for man to over-populate during certain times. The question is also one of the lessons learned during an intended purpose. But you will find that ‘nature’ shall re-adjust herself to your thoughts and actions via producing less sustainability for the much smaller remaining population, since nature had already intended that purpose. Nature has a teleological relationship with the organic forms, not a naturalistic one as do other lifeless processes. The lessons learned must come from the subtle, not the enforced. Culling is not necessary. All forms of life that are designed to be created will of its own accord, survive alongside nature, even when nature has no choice but to be less abundant. After wars, you’ll still get more baby boomers to fill in the losses.
Just as an over abundance of germs is backed up by a ‘purpose’ driven design to supply an inadequate means of survival, so too will nature have already planned over-population through an intended purpose. If you do not wish for nature to have planned this, than it is YOU that goes against the PURPOSE of both nature and those who seek to live. You’ve not chosen to find the correct means to alter the PURPOSE even when much has been written about man being rewarded or punished through his own treatment of other life forms on this planet. Do you really believe that culling will bring anything into balance, when that culling WILL only cause more earth changes?
If society is working about unhealthy conditions already, then how can anyone claim that nature did not intend to play a role in a portion of that unhealthy condition? If someone decides to force something unhealthy upon his fellow man, such as culling, then the planet will see it fit to move life’s purpose toward these varied conditions (on unhealthiness) to survive. Does that in any way mean that there will be more sustainability? You’re task is to learn how to love. Some introspection may help you understand what I mean. If you try to create a balance between nature and man, than an even larger unbalance is made proportional to the intended purpose. Those of you who normally doubt this fact are operating in accordance to mainstream scientific thought; your mindset being that nature is producing at a rate that is completely independent to the purpose of all purpose driven, organic life. You see the tree from only one angle and base all your mathematics on that one-sided view while telling us that “it is already done”.
It’s disappointing how men like Darwin could not grasp the entire scope of what Malthus was actually alluding to in his “Essay on the Principle of Population”. Malthus was writing a very complex view about how difficult was the history of mankind to have to compete in society when the population grows at a faster pace than the supply of food. This was a comparative study during difficult times. Instead, Darwin took this view of competition and turned it into an all encompassing and comprehensive law of all life-forms! How did Darwin arrive at such a conclusion? How did you arrive at this conclusion, ‘535’? How does your purpose (to cull) remain in conformity with natures’ unless you have already decided that nature has no purpose toward maintaining life? Since you claim to NOT be able to know what nature’s purpose is, you then fashion for yourself the idea that nature has no purpose in anything it creates. To me, this is irresponsible.
In school, they brainwash students into thinking that lifeless processes, such like watching water form or watching a magnet attract iron, is exactly the same process when applied to the purpose-based organic world. Such are the lies of Ahriman. Now when a physicist looks at a magnet attracting iron fillings, he does not say to himself, “Oh look there must be some force at work in the magnet that aims toward a PURPOSE of the attraction. When Oxygen and Hydrogen turn into water, a chemist does not look upon the process and say “Oh look, something found in both substances (H & O) just wanted to actively form water. So what does Darwin do next? He decides that this SAME process found in magnets and water forming must also be applied to all of life, organic based, and to purpose driven forms.
He decides that Nature CANNOT be involved in any of the purpose or conformity in organic life. He decides that things in nature, like water forming, just happens and have nothing at all to do with nature planning the conformity or purpose of it’s very creations. He thought nature ‘just acts’ and is totally impartial from all purpose of what it creates.
Does that sort of view sound familiar?
Just like Darwin, you take the view that nothing found in nature can be involved in planning the design. You then mold for yourself that design that you claim nature cannot do for herself. Just like Darwin, you believe that nature does not decide when its products “the people” and “sustainability” are having a purpose or not. You assume it just acts – without any purpose. Again, thinking incorrectly with fancy math will not replace reality.
You claim that an event will enfold so catastrophic that it would be far worse for us to try and survive through coming together, than to be culled in preparation. You also alluded to a polar shift elsewhere. Although it serves no purpose to assume what event you were referring to, I suspect that one supposed reasoning for the insane to cull is based upon a ‘certain’ polar shift idea. Irrespective, I’ll inform you that even men like Cayce, although a great mystic, make mistakes while in trance.
On the opposite end, the likely-hood of you people basing anything upon a series of psychic readings, instead of materialistic science alone is very slim. So I pose this question: Let us assume that the earth only became a completely solid form about 40,000-50,000 years ago and that all human skeletons are likewise no older, since earlier man had no bones, so then what would that tell you about the geological strata and fossil remains in terms of the date normally attributed of millions of years old? Could it be wrong by a factor of a hundred or more? In other words, if the earth was not always as solid as it is now, what makes you believe that it will always remain solid and also how can it be measured in a linear fashion? Just a thought…..
Despite what you claim, we are no longer held to any predestined path. Just because an event MUST occur does not mean that we are supposed to commit evil. Often the event must occur as a test. To pass the test is not always about surviving the event. What if the lesson was for us to be good in light of the event and that none of us will survive no matter what we do? Would your attempt to cull not make it even worse for you in the end? So you might try searching for answers within yourself, as opposed to externally basing everything on materialism, or survival of the fittest.
And despite what horrific events may unfold, what is the real event we face today? You wanted to help us, and so I’d like to help you.
What we face now is not a purging through fire, or through water. Today it will be a purging through EVIL. During a past epoch, in the portion of the world known as ‘Atlantis’ an event unfolded which would reduce the population. ‘The Great Flood’ as Plato referred to it. Many people during that time did survive, for they listened to the subtle voices of the Divine. Many of those same men tried to warn the masses but the masses were not ready to listen! Thus the Atlantians were purged through water due in great part to their own karma. It was the intended purpose, yet people still had a CHOICE. The people could have left freely but still they CHOSE not to. Before Atlantis, there was another catastrophic event that took place in another land known as Lemuria. The people there perished due to fire, yet again, many did survive.
If the Atlantian civilization fell into darkness and were purged, imagine what darkness will bestow us if we are not even granted the chance to listen outside of what you claim is already done? Is it not our purpose to oppose your plans?

The Crystalline Network
So clearly was the Om Crystal the most complex in its construct and utility of all the magnificent Temple Crystals in Atlantis. This is not to say that the other Atlantean crystals are not of enormous capability, complexity and purpose, indeed they are. We have told you that nine utilitarian Atlantean Temple crystals, stunning specimens of Arcturian and Sirian construct, were transported through the hyper dimensional capacity of the inner earth tunnel system and relocated to specifically chosen areas. We have also told you that the Blue Crystal of Knowledge, located in the Crystal Vortex of Arkansas, would be the first activated. Indeed it has been rebooted, and surged into the first tier step-up into approximately 25% power on the June solstice of 2008. We tell you that on the frequencial triple date portal of the 8-8-8 that it will launch into half strength and in so doing will also trigger the 144-Crystalline Grid into two-thirds functionality. The 8-8-8 activation of the Blue Crystal will trigger a sequencial surge of axialtonal energy networking to the other eight. Four of these are scheduled to come on line on the 9-9-9, September 9th, 2009. These are the Om Crystal of Multidimensionality in Shasta, the Emerald Crystal of Healing in Arkansas, the Golden Crystal of Healing & Regeneration in Brazil, and the Sun-Moon Crystal at Lake Titicaca.
Indeed, what may be termed a Crystalline Network is tuned to the activation of the 144 Grid and correlates with the function of that termed the Golden Sun Disc. The activation schedule is as follows:

1) A detailed summary of the 'Big Picture', including the Roswell crash, time travel issues, future human visitation, and the 2012 problem.

The PROJECT AVALON FORUM: to support aware individuals in networking and forming groups across the planet.
As stated by George Green in the Project Camelot interview Messages for the Ground Crew, there exist individuals and groups, all over the world, who have an important responsibility and role to play in the preservation of civilization regardless which scenarios may play out.
These possible scenarios - which include planned financial collapse, war, and population reduction by covert means - can be prevented and changed by the united intention of many concerned individuals. Many of us are working to prepare and awaken others.
We know that our efforts to create a new tomorrow will not be in vain. We acknowledge the Ground Crew all over the globe - including (we are confident) ethical and principled individuals within military and intelligence circles worldwide.
We believe it's prudent to make contingency plans. PROJECT AVALON is created to help you do that.
4 September
• We had a telephone interview scheduled yesterday with Benjamin Fulford which was unexpectedly canceled at the last minute. It appears he's very concerned over the latest turns of events, and would only say that we should be aware of 8 September. We know nothing more than this, other than he stressed that things are constantly changing.
Two weeks previously he publicly stated that he had learned from his own sources that 30 September would be important, being the end of the US Fiscal Year. It was then, he had been told, when US bankruptcy could be announced, with various complex major consequences.
Half Past Human, using its very unusual and creative predictive web bot technology, have identified 7 October as the date for a crucial event - preceded by a plateau of 11 days of tension starting on 27 September. The aftermath of the 7 October event, they say, will last till mid-February. They do not know what this is, save that’s it’s partly economic, partly military. They're confident of their prediction, and note that this situation is totally unique in their experience.
They compare the five months of 'release language' they have identified on the net (in connection with the period of time following the incident) with the far shorter 10 or 11 days following 9/11. This implies the possibility of a far more major and impactful event or situation.
Half Past Human first got our attention at Camelot when they predicted regime change in Pakistan as far back as last February. President Musharraf, facing impeachment, resigned one day later than the exact date they had identified five months earlier.
We interviewed George Green by phone two days ago and have just published this here (see also What's New on our Site, opposite). He believes WW III is on its way and is planning to relocate to Ecuador.
Our source Hawkeye (see below here, here, here, here and here) stated in his last messages to us that the first ten days of October would be highly significant. We have not heard from him in the last several weeks.
There are clear parallels to the events depicted in Timeline 1, variant 83 - although this timeline has been broken and some important details are clearly different.
There is no-one we know, or are aware of, who is saying that we should all relax and that this is all hype.
Our own new site, catering for the needs of what George Green has called The Ground Crew, is very nearly ready for launch. It's focused on the formation of communities and will be a support structure for aware people connecting with one another if they wish to. We will be announcing it here before the end of the coming weekend.

James Whale:
We talked about how there could be different levels of existence, but do you think there could be an even bigger power that exists somewhere that could easily come out and stop the Elite with their NWO agenda in their tracks?
David Icke:
That's possible... the idea that we're alone on this planet, on this little solar system, and are the only 'intelligent' life in this dimension that we perceive, is ridiculous. Whether this happens, we'll have to wait and see, but in the meantime, we have to stop giving power away to the few, and start taking it back because there are billions of people on the planet being manipulated, but there are only a handful of people at the core doing the manipulating through front men and gophers and what have you, and the reason they have power and we don't is because they create the primary reality and we don't.

Well, how about a hollow (round) earth?
Flat Earth and Hollow Earth - (http://www.jimloy.com/pseudo/flat.htm)
Hollow universe
I see that there are some people who believe that the earth is hollow, and that we live on the inside. For these people, the entire visible universe is also inside the earth. The laws of physics and math become amazingly distorted in order to make the situation appear to be that we are on the outside of the earth. As bizarre as this idea sounds, it is impossible to disprove. The only thing against such a hollow earth is that it is ridiculously complicated compared to the real, relatively uncomplicated universe. That makes the choice easy for scientists. The real universe is much much more likely to be true.

A thought went up (http://http://www.mith2.umd.edu/WomensStudies/ReadingRoom/Poetry/Dickinson/a-thought-went-up) my mind to-day
That I have had before,
But did not finish,--some way back,
I could not fix the year,
Nor where it went, nor why it came
The second time to me,
Nor definitely what it was,
Have I the art to say.
But somewhere in my soul, I know
I've met the thing before;
It just reminded me--'t was all--
And came my way no more.

SN 2008D:
Supernova Caught in Act of Exploding
http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2008/sn2008d/sn2008d.jpg
On January 9, 2008, NASA's Swift satellite was used to fortuitously observe a very bright X-ray outburst in the spiral galaxy NGC 2770, located 90 million light-years from Earth. In a Nature paper, astronomers show that the properties of the X-ray outburst are consistent with a shock wave bursting through the surface of a massive star that has just collapsed, the first time such an event has been seen. This outburst marked the very early stages of a supernova explosion called SN 2008D.
This discovery triggered a large international collaboration, using a fleet of space-based observatories and ground-based telescopes. Shown here is a Chandra X-ray Observatory image of the region around SN 2008D, obtained about 10 days after the supernova explosion. The lowest energy X-rays are shown in red, intermediate energy X-rays in green and high energies in blue. The faint red source in the upper right is SN 2008D. The other 3 X-ray sources are unrelated to this supernova.
The Chandra observations helped show that this was a normal supernova rather than one associated with a gamma ray burst. They were also used to help calculate the variation of the supernova's X-ray emission with time, allowing estimates to be made of the radius of the star that exploded and the mass-loss rate just before the explosion.

[ You feel quite sure what’s coming, right? But wait…the whole scenario could very well wind up in something COMPLETELY unexpected…
You know, it’s a fact that I have been abducted several times.
When I still was a young kid, I couldn’t understand what was going on, and it scared me a bit. Maybe mostly because there where no one around to talk to, about it. When I tried – I always got comments like… “I believe you, but you shouldn’t talk about things like that”.
However, more recent years (the body is now 55) has been a whole lot more amazing.
All I write feels like (is) complete understatements, because all of this is so amazing, fantastic wonderful.. there’s just no words for it.
Sometimes I must hold myself back from running straight out to the middle of the street, and just scream…
HEY FOLKS… this IS ONLY A TEMPORARY AFFAIR - DON’T WORRY - YOU ARE NOT YOUR BODY – AND YOU HAVE ANOTHER HOME – AND YOU WILL SOON BE BACK AMONGST YOUR LOVE ONES…
I know quite well what’s around the corner for each and every one of us. Of course not the future for others than myself (and even that is not 100% clear). What I mean when I write “I know quite well” is the true conditions on- and around earth.
And I feel confident to say that.. “the truth will be a tremendous surprise for the absolute majority of those living here on earth”.
I wasn’t (and still isn’t) totally sure if the truth actually would be revealed for everyone,
but spotting the below sun pics, made me suspect that this is actually could be the case.
If you still consider stories about aliens, inter dimensional beings, etc, as fantasy, I can guarantee you that the truth will chock you all the way into the bare bones.
The most comprehensive way to describe it would probably be something similar to the movie
“the TRUMAN show “.
But really - it’s so incredible much more fantastic than that – one simply can’t put something like that in words. I have tried… and I won’t do it again
But just wait – sooner or later each and every one of you will see it… (probably sooner.. than later..)
If this is the “October surprise” it will definitely be so even for TPTB – and it will as well be their ticket to some heavily confronting and making amends. (And that’s about time, don’t you think?)
The timing would be perfect!

We experience in ignorance, or naivety, believing the solution will always be part of the grid that created the problem and all will eventually return to balance. Such has been the nature of the physical experience since the beginning of time, playing within its own electromagnetic, electrostatic fields.
The program creates problems to discover how the human condition deals with each situation to restore its natural state of balance before it self-destructs, a fail-safe mechanism in place. In the final level of the game, as reality collapses, the problems have been created by - as some people say "by the powers that be" - the final solution not existing in the physical, but rather in its natural state of being - consciousness.
Illustration of a Light Echo
John Tittor (http://forum.bgdcafe.com/index.php?showtopic=30690)(...)Titor's statements regarding the IBM 5100 ability to emulate and debug mainframe systems were correct. This information was not publicly known when Titor made his declaration, which has led to speculation that the person posing as Titor must have been linked somehow to the development of this system. (see "Secrets of the City" in external links for more information.)
When asked about the mechanisms of the time traveling, Titor replied that he was no engineer. When asked to provide a better picture of his time machine he replied that he wasn't a photographer. When asked to use the time machine to do something paradoxical (e.g., kill his grandfather) he replied that that would only affect this universe, but not his. He appeared to imply that there were many worldlines, and his time machine could not control its outgoing destination exactly, but could return to a worldline exactly similar to his own home. (It would be a different "Worldline" but would be exactly the same in his perspective as when he left). His originating "worldline" would, in turn, receive a John Titor exactly similar to the original. Therefore, his original "worldline" would indeed receive the benefit of his mission.
The "worldline" theory corresponds with a current scientific hypothesis known as the Multiverse.

These are taken from John Titor's original statements and summarised.

Thought is you. If you are not thinking you are not there. Nothing is there.* * *
.....those ideas are picked up from here, there and everywhere.
....There is no mind apart from thought. There is nothing.
It Is Bound to Affect the Whole Human Consciousness....
The human race will somehow survive. But the only thing that one can do is to free himself, because it is a pure, unsullied and uncontaminated consciousness that is operating. So, it is bound to affect all those who come into its orbit. You don't have to do a thing. You can sit in one corner of the world, yet it is bound to affect the whole of human consciousness, because it [consciousness everywhere] is the same; it is exactly the same. It has no frontiers; it has no boundaries. So, it [consciousness here] is bound to affect the whole human consciousness....
* * *You cannot measure it. It is not a thing to measure and statistically prove that so many people have been benefited by it. It is a very slow process. It takes time.

* * *Questioning the Movement of Thought....
Somebody looked at the millipede and wondered how this small, tiny little worm is able to walk with a thousand legs. So, he asked the question, "How do you manage to walk? I find it so difficult to walk with my two legs." And so the millipede started thinking. And it died.
In exactly the same way, the moment you begin to question the movement of thought inside of you, you will find that you are ending up in a very surprising situation -- which is a very frightening thing for you.
http://www.ugkrishnamurti.org/ug/main/chandra_files/exphorsa.gif
Wanting Is Thinking....
Burning of Thought Is Energy....
...That is life....
......Alchemy is burning of thought.
It's Meaningless to Ask the Meaning of Life....
...Life is expressing itself, that's all.
Experiencing the Body....
This body, you see, whose body is it? I have no way of saying to myself, "This is my body." I have no way of directly experiencing this body for myself. Not experiencing funny little things called `separation of the body` -- that is a neurological disorder. Many people have experienced the separation of their body. A neurological disorder can bring about the separation of the body -- as if you are something different, you experience your own body. That is not what I talking about. I cannot separate myself at all, because there is nothing here to separate myself from.
Bliss and the Body....
The body is interested in its survival and reproducing one like itself. The only way it can reproduce itself is through the use of thought. So, thought is very essential for the survival of the living organism. The body is not interested in spiritual activity or psychological activity. None of the spiritual experiences are of any value to the body. On the other hand, they create a tremendous strain. The bliss, beatitude, love, compassion -- all those that the religious man had placed before us are only adding to the strain of the body.
Samadhi and Ultimate Samadhi....
....The senses are functioning at their peak capacity all the time. They cannot go on. So, every now and then -- that is decided by the circumstances and not by any entity inside -- the defenses must be cut out from outside challenges. So, the eyes may be open, but you see nothing, because the senses are tired. The recovery takes exactly 48 minutes -- the so-called Samadhi. But the ultimate Samadhi -- I don't want to use the word -- it is very misleading -- it is [occurs for] one second by the clock. This body, this nervous system cannot stand that. It is its physical death. You come to the point of physical death -- it is not the death of the mind, death of the psyche, or the death of thought. The body goes through the process of physical death. And why it comes back [to life] God alone knows.
You Are That Movement of Thought....
Thought is you. If you are not thinking you are not there. Nothing is there. What is there will begin to express itself. Let that express.
That is intelligence. "I don't want to be other than what I am --" that is the courage.
The Courage to Be Yourself....
You have never let desire just stay there without tampering [with it]. That is life. What can you do without desire? The more you want to tamper with it the more it is suffering. You are always suffering because you want to be other than what you are. You just don't have the courage to be yourself. That means you have to be alone in this world -- one without a second.
http://www.ugkrishnamurti.org/ug/main/chandra_files/exphorsa.gif
This Is Not an Experience....
This is not an experience. I cannot share it with you. If it is an experience, I can at least try to make you experience it through words, through descriptions, through phrases, through painting and musical compositions and so on.
You cannot capture this, contain this or give expression to this. This is outside the range of experience.
I don't know if you see the total helplessness of the situation.

70. HIDDEN IDENTITY
Though the words of the sage are simple,
and his actions easily performed,
they are few among many,
who can speak or act as a sage.
For the ordinary man it is difficult
to know the way of a sage,
perhaps because his words
are from the distant past,
and his actions naturally disposed.
Those who know the way of the sage
are few and far between,
but those who treat him with honesty,
will be honoured by him and the Tao.
He knows he makes no fine display,
and wears rough clothes, not finery.
It is not in his expectancy of men
that they should understand his ways,
for he carries his jade within his heart.

On Art and Artists....
She is a painter. She can understand what I am trying to point out. If she wants really to paint how you look like, she will never be able to do that. She is projecting the idea. She has abstracted from the object that is there: "This is probably the way the person is like...."
So, she is putting the idea or abstraction of what she is looking at onto the canvas and she says, "This is the picture." So, she cannot -- if she were a real artist -- she will never be able to paint or make a portrait of him. It is impossible. That's the real artist. These are not the artists -- not these people who put you on canvas. These are just technicians. I am sorry.
So, there is no such thing as an artist at all. He is just a technician. He or she has learned the technique of painting. They are just technicians, artisans, like the carpenters, masons, etc.

' Geometrics, the unified field and I '
by jesta_g
Senior Member
*wee note - please click on alot of these images to get a better picture :smile:*
it is indeed a massive coincidence if not huge significance that everything in this "reality" is of one of 3 sequences/codes - the Phi ratio (fibionacci), the golden mean (similar to the fibonacci) and binery sequence. in this dimension it is all a seperate holographic expression of its self, Oneness.
we are all part of the "unified field grid" which connects us all and shapes our perception of the 3rd dimension through the frequencies that are transmitted and recieved to our brain.
as Da Vinci understood, our body is based on geometric patterns. these patterns in turn relate perfectly to nature. Da vinci along with many others (drunvalo melchizedek in particular ) understand that we have a "field" around or body that is known as the MERKABA which is (as with everything) connected to the unified field.
- keep in mind *19.5 degrees* as this is important
this field is an electro-magnetic field (which every living thing has, including celestial bodies (planets/stars)) that rotates so fast that we can not see it as it is part of the "light body" the same as the CHAKRA system.

http://www.hinduonnet.com/folio/fo0003/fo000300.jpgThree things move all the time. Our breath - the continuous nourishment of the body, our heart - the continuous propelling of blood with life-giving substances, and our thoughts. Each organ does its bit in this fabulous orchestra, but the band collapses without nourishment. Food, both solid and liquid, we need daily, but air we need literally second by second, minute by minute. What air supplies to us is vital. Our lungs take in air and blow out air. In a very short time, an exchange takes place. Our lungs are special and so is the process of breathing.
Pranayama can be called an exploration in stillness, a subtle and dynamic exploration involving breathing. All around us and within, there is a continuous flow of energy. The wind blows and moves the trees, there is a movement of limbs and bodies, animals and people walk and work. Prana or life energy is seen in its expressions, not by itself. Amidst the continuous, tremendous movement one also sees stillness - a tree at the time of sunset when the breeze has suddenly stopped, a cat resting on the floor, a bird on a telegraph wire or on a branch. But man seems to be still only in sleep.
Movement is one of the essential functions of life. However still the cat, blood courses through its veins, propelled by the action of the heart muscles. However still the tree, sap rises in its core. Only the involuntary life sustaining processes are at work.

Have you ever noticed that when you respond to something totally, with all your heart, there is very little memory? It is only when you do not respond to a challenge with your whole being that there is a conflict, a struggle, and this brings confusion and pleasure or pain. And the struggle breeds memory. That memory is added to all the time by other memories and it is those memories which respond. Anything that is the result of memory is old and therefore never free. There is no such thing as freedom of thought. It is sheer nonsense.
Thought is never new, for thought is the response of memory, experience, knowledge. Thought, because it is old, makes this thing which you have looked at with delight and felt tremendously for the moment, old. From the old you derive pleasure, never from the new. There is no time in the new.
Excerpt from “Freedom from the Known” by Jiddu Krishnamurti
http://drvasu.wordpress.com/2007/11/11/pleasure-and-joy-j-krishnamurti/
THE ORCHESTRA AS METAPHOR
Let’s take an isolated example from the past to illustrate this. From a psychological perspective the music of Claude Debussy, particularly his orchestration, is an expression of primordial desire. What makes some of his music so haunting and mysterious even after repeated hearings is the fact that he has managed to regress further back than any composer before him and reach a psychological state which lies before the fully formed ego, the latter epitomized in the music of Beethoven and Wagner. His is a state of languid, unarticulated desire. Debussy’s music is a non-verbal discourse on the aesthetics of pleasure. It resonates with a deep-seated feeling or memory lying dormant within each one of us until something stimulates it from the outside; we seem to recognize some aspects of our own spiritual pre-history when we listen to La mer or to the L’ après-midi d’ un faune. Yet, as any theologian or Jungian psychologist might caution, deep within the Garden of Eden of Debussy’s music lies the tree that can cause humanity’s spiritual downfall. Within pleasure lies temptation and temptation is the pencil that draws the outlines of ego, the “I” which conceives itself as separate from the whole. In theological terms, most of the music that followed Debussy was a coming to terms with a fall from Grace. The heroic, defiant soloist who was celebrated by the nineteenth and previous centuries as a hero had by now become the Fallen Angel, and this Fallen Angel consciousness, the turning point in the parable of the Prodigal Son, is what informs spiritually most of twentieth century music. In theological and spiritual terms, this is an important point in the history of human eschatology. Realizing the fall is the beginning of the return home......
......Orchestration, melody, rhythm and harmony too may be viewed as sociopolitical metaphors. Since the advent of polyphony, the horizontal aspect of counterpoint has stood for the unfolding of the individual will (that of a single voice or instrument) in time, while the vertical aspect, the harmonic convergence of separate lines, has stood for the social interaction between these individual wills. In the music of strong hierarchical societies, the tendency has been to reach the maximum possible melodic independence but always within the constraints of a strict harmonic language, that could be never violated for the sake of further melodic independence in individual voices. In the late classical and romantic eras, these rules could be violated if the forward harmonic thrust of a powerful musical idea made such violation necessary. The solid, all encompassing harmonic system, which Bach considered inviolable, Beethoven accepted only if it did not stood in the way of his own Promethean momentum. By the time Schoenberg, and Webern introduced free atonality, the hierarchical system that held society and music together for centuries was completely abandoned as non-relevant. Soon after a very brief period of anarchy, a new ordering principle based on series that reflected the industrial idea of society as a huge assembly line, became the new vogue becoming more automated by each passing generation in tandem with the industrial trend towards automation.
Of course music is not just a reflection of the socioeconomic process, not least because both constitute a reflection of a deeper, spiritual process.

Control was necessary to keep the fabric of this creation intact ,because there are so many species and interferences on Earth

The Consciousness of this world has elevated to the point where humans are no longer animals and are able to lead themselves ,while being free and responsable
Now ,you have started ,today,the 5th day of the 5th day of the5 th day of the Galactic Cycle,a process which will nullify all nations,all national money and all national laws and create a united world instead
This is a very good thing
But you also want to place yourselves ,in your infinite vanity ,at the top of the new world and this is impossible
Not only because it contradicts my plans but also because the consciousness of this planet will not allow you to continue your deceit

Subject: Re: Antimatter propulsion questions
To:
In issue #220, James W. Meritt asks several questions about matter/anti-matter
annihilation:
1) What about Pauli exclusion? Does an anti-proton only react with free
protons?
Pauli exclusion only applies to identical particles. A proton and
anti-proton are NOT identical, so exclusion is entirely irrelevant. A
proton and anti-proton (electron/positron, etc) can annihilate regardless
of the presence of a potential.
2) Will anti-protons only react with free protons? Or does quark-quark
annihilation take place?
The reaction actually taking place IS quark-antiquark annihilation.
But because of confinement rules, some reactions are more likely than
others.
Nevertheless, it is possible for antiprotons and neutrons to react.
Similarly, anti-lithium will react with normal matter quite nicely.
(Not just lithium; ALL matter).
So, NO, you can not store antimatter fuel in an aluminum container.
It has to be handled with more care than that. However, you have to
MAKE antimatter before you worry about any of this; and this hasn't been
done. What is actually proposed as a fuel? Anti-hydrogen?

It is not the case that the Viking sites were particularly dry compared to
other parts of the planet. Moreover, the measured partial pressure of water
was something like 14 precipitable microns, orders of magnitude too low for
liquid water to exist, even if saturated with salts.

The results were hardly "life-like". They were much more consistent with
the presence of peroxides, superoxides, and ozonides in the soil. The
process that generates these compounds (photochemical dissociation of water
vapor) would operate globally, and dust storms would carry the chemicals
everywhere. It would be nice to confirm this model by further tests, but
claims that Viking did not present strong evidence against the existence of
life are misleading.

Cairns-Smith's very imaginative proposal is not supported by any evidence.
Moreover, his model requires the existence of liquid water.

I believe this has been looked into. Frost does not form at night at the
Viking sites (although *seasonal* frosts do occur, probably by
precipitation of suspended ice grains), and any frost that did form would
sublime and not moisten the soil.

Those enzymes cannot operate if the organism has been lyophilized. I view
with incredulity your claim that organisms have been found to grow in
conditions that simulate Martian conditions. Perhaps you are refering
to very old experiments that were performed before it was realized how
cold and dry Mars really is? Please give a reference.

[This variation was suggested by Hud Nordin of Sunnyvale, California.]
If we have a brick with sides of lengths 1, Phi=1·61803... and phi=1/Phi=0·61803... then:-
the longest side is the sum of the other two lengths since 1 + phi = Phi
the largest face (area C=1 x Phi) is the sum of the other two face's areas (area A =1 x phi and area B=phi x Phi) since
Area A + Area B
= 1 x phi + phi x Phi
= phi + 1
= Phi
= Area C

Thank you for pointing out that design trend. I recognize it well, and it's something I'm specifically trying to avoid.
To prevent an auxiliary power/control/communications system from growing in complexity until it takes up a significant portion of the payload, a conscious design decision must be made to keep it as small and simple as possible.
There are at least three ways in which the design I proposed could continue to grow: 1) The number of sensors and access points into the main system. Even though it limits the functionality of the system, these must be kept down to an acceptable minimum. 2) I mentioned the possibility of using the new system to reconfigure the main system if the latter is unable to do so itself. Unfortunately, I don't know what mechanism is used on current spacecraft to perform reconfigurations. Is it as simple as a flip-flop or register controlling tri-state buffers or multiplexers? Or is it considerably more complex? 3) Safety interlocks would be needed so a haywire auxiliary system would not prevent the main system from functioning, and vice versa. This could get fairly complex.
Perhaps a password-based interlock could reduce the hardware complexity requirements. >If you make the emergency backup too complex, you are better off just >making the main computer/communications system triply-redundant instead >of doubly-redundant.
The result will not be significantly heavier or >more complex, could be about as robust, and would be much more useful
>if the mission *doesn't* run into serious trouble.
A doubly redundant system with multiple reconfiguration points is vastly superior to a system with no redundancy, since it greatly reduces the probability that a single failure will bring the whole system down.
Going from double redundancy to triple redundancy adds a much smaller incremental improvement, though it does make a voting mechanism possible, and for anything beyond triple redundancy, the incremental value is even less.
In practice, it appears that unmanned spacecraft generally get double redundancy at most.
Perhaps this is because
the program designers would rather concentrate on the sophistication and performance of the system than on increased redundancy. Making an auxiliary system that doesn't have to have the full performance of the main system gets around the performance-redundancy tradeoff.
Another issue is the choice of technology. In the discussion following the disappearance of Mars Observer,
the possibility of using different technology/architecture/programming for redundant devices was brought up.
The consensus appears to be that given the resources available, the redundant elements of the main system should probably be pretty much the same (an exception being systems with the highest reliability requirements, such as the Shuttle main computers).
An auxiliary system would not be under this restriction.
Using different design choices for an auxiliary system could give a slight improvement in ability to recover from faults, and could be very useful in "post-mortems" of failed spacecraft, and incidentally could provide a relatively painless way to test new designs (since failure of the auxiliary system would not result in failure of the main system.) >>A key issue would be

If the main power system abruptly fails (for instance by shorting out), you never find out what happened, which makes it difficult to avoid the same problem in future spacecraft. I was not trying to emphasize that a particular power source be used, but that it be separate from the main power system.
I would not advocate an RTG unless the main system also uses RTGs.
Incidentally, the auxiliary power supply (RTG, photovoltaic, or whatever) need not be powerful enough to run the entire auxiliary system full time - charging a battery for intermittent use should be sufficient. >>...

I agree that the "smaller, faster, cheaper" probes would derive much less benefit, and it may well be that most new probes in the near future will end up being of that type. There may still be the occasional large unmanned spacecraft, and judging by the performance of the large interplanetary spacecraft of the last decade, they might benefit from this type of approach.

Title: Do Mirrors for Gravitational Waves Exist?
Authors: Stephen J. Minter, Kirk Wegter-McNelly, Raymond Y. Chiao
(Submitted on 4 Mar 2009 (v1), last revised 23 Mar 2009 (this version, v5))
Abstract: Thin superconducting films are predicted to be highly reflective mirrors for gravitational waves at microwave frequencies. The radical delocalization of the negatively charged Cooper pairs, which is due to the Uncertainty Principle, causes them to undergo non-geodesic motion relative to the geodesic motion of the positively charged ions in the lattice, which is due to the Equivalence Principle. The charge separation that ensues from the electrical supercurrents induced in a superconductor by an incident gravitational wave leads to a virtual plasma excitation inside the superconductor. An enormous enhancement of the strength of the interaction of a gravitational wave with a superconductor relative to that of a neutral superfluid is produced, so that the wave will be specularly reflected even from a very thin superconducting film. This result is demonstrated using the BCS theory of superconductivity and a superconducting plasma model.

Making magnetic monopoles,
and other exotica,
in the lab
physorg.com/news
General Physics
February 5th, 2009 By Lauren Schenkman (http://www.physorg.com/news153074178.html)
Physicist Shou-Cheng Zhang has proposed a way to physically realize the magnetic monopole. In a paper published online in the January 29 issue of Science Express, Zhang and post-doctoral collaborator Xiao-Liang Qi predict the existence of a real-world material that acts as a magic mirror, in which the never-before-observed monopole appears as the image of an ordinary electron. If his prediction is confirmed by experiments, this could mean the opening of condensed matter as a new venue for observing the exotica of high-energy physics.
http://www.physorg.com/newman/gfx/news/makingmagnet.jpg
Zhang is a condensed-matter theorist at the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Science (SIMES), a joint institute of SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University. He studies solids that exhibit unusual electromagnetic and quantum behaviors, with an eye towards their use in information storage. But due to his training as a particle physicist, Zhang always keeps the big picture in mind. That’s why it was so easy for him to see that the material he was already working on could behave like what theorists call a magnetic monopole, an isolated north or south magnetic pole.
The monopole is thought of as electric charge’s magnetic cousin, but unlike positive or negative charges, north or south poles always occur together in what’s called a dipole. A lone north or south pole simply doesn’t show up in the real world. Even if you take a bar magnet and cut it in half down the middle, you won’t get a separate north and south pole, but two new dipole magnets instead. For symmetry-minded theorists, however, it’s natural that there should be a magnetic equivalent of charge. String theories and grand unified theories rely on its existence, and its absence undermines the mathematical feng-shui of the otherwise elegant Maxwell’s equations that govern the behavior of electricity and magnetism. What’s more, the existence of a magnetic monopole would explain another mystery of physics: why charge is quantized; that is, why it only seems to come in tidy packets of about 1.602×10-19 coulombs, the charge of an electron or proton.
For decades, scientists have kept their eyes peeled for the elusive monopole, but perhaps they were looking in the wrong place. “They were literally hoping it would fall from sky,” Zhang says. The notion isn’t as far-fetched as it seems—our world is constantly bombarded by weird particles showering from far-off cosmic events, and magnetic monopoles could very well show up as part of that rain. Some enterprising physicists installed loops of superconducting material on their rooftops. If anything remotely like a magnetic monopole fell through, the loops, being sensitive to magnetic fluctuations, would register it.
But in more than 30 years of searching, no one’s been able to conclusively detect this particle. Accelerator experiments have been no more successful, leading scientists believe existing monopoles must be far too heavy to create in even the Large Hadron Collider.
Interestingly, Zhang’s magnetic monopole didn’t fall from the heavens; instead, it was leading a quiet life on the other side of a mirror, but a mirror made of a very special type of alloy. What’s more, says Zhang, the math to prove the effect is very clear. “You could give the last part of the mathematical derivation as a final exam in a junior or senior year undergraduate physics class.”
To understand how a material can act like a magnetic monopole, it helps to examine first how an ordinary metal acts when a charge—an electron, say—is brought close to the surface. Because like charges repel, the electrons at the surface retreat to the interior, leaving the previously neutral surface positively charged. The resulting electric field looks exactly like that of a particle with positive charge the same distance below the surface—it’s the positive mirror image of the electron. In fact, from an observer’s point of view, it’s impossible to tell the difference.
The concept of an image charge is something undergraduate physics students encounter in their very first electricity and magnetism class, along with the idea that the magnetic monopole doesn’t exist. But Zhang’s “mirror” alloy is no ordinary material. It’s what’s called a topological insulator, a strange breed of solid Zhang specializes in, in which “the laws of electrodynamics are dramatically altered,” he says. In fact, if an electron was brought close to the surface of a topological insulator, Zhang’s paper demonstrates, something truly eerie would happen. Instead of an ordinary positive charge, Zhang says, “You would get what looks like a magnetic monopole in the ‘mirror.’”
To go back to the example of image charges, it’s important to emphasize that there isn’t actually half of a bar magnet somewhere inside this material. Instead, Zhang discovered, due to a peculiarity of the material called strong spin-orbit coupling, the nearby electron would induce a current in the surface that circulates constantly without dying out. This in turn—undergraduate physics majors, get out your pencils—would create a magnetic field that looks like that of a magnetic monopole. Experimentalists have tried to approximate this field before, for instance by arranging permanent magnets in certain ways. But to an outside observer, Zhang’s material would be completely indistinguishable from the monopole particle that physicists were hoping to catch in their superconducting detectors.
“We like to find things that don’t exist,” says Zhang. His work on the monopole has further ramifications; this could be a way to physically realize a number of particles that, until now, have only existed as mathematical loopholes in high-energy physics theories. For instance, Zhang has shown that the electron and image monopole together would act like a so-called “anyon” located at the solid’s surface. “The ‘any,’ in this case, is as in ‘anything,’” Zhang explains—they are particles that only exist in two dimensions, whose properties straddle those of the two classes of three-dimensional particles, fermions and bosons.
Although Zhang works as a theorist, he has close ties to experimental physics. In 2007, his prediction of the quantum spin Hall effect in mercury telluride was confirmed experimentally, earning his work praise in Science as a runner-up breakthrough of that year. “As a theorist you’re always motivated by the math, but it’s a testament to our understanding that we can predict real-world materials,” Zhang says. “Before, new materials were more or less found by accident.” Now other SIMES researchers will be using the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource at SLAC to closely study two specific materials, bismuth selenide and bismuth telluride, that Zhang has predicted will exhibit this strange mirror behavior. They hope to confirm the prediction experimentally some time this year.
“Exotic particles such as the magnetic monopole, dyon, anyon, and the axion have played fundamental roles in our theoretical understanding of quantum physics,” Zhang writes in the paper. “Experimental observation of these exotic particles in table-top condensed matter systems could finally reveal their deep mysteries.” Topological insulators could provide a new experimental outlet for high-energy physicists. “You don’t have to look towards the cosmos,” Zhang says. “I think we’ll see more of the beautiful mathematical structures of high-energy physics become realized in condensed matter physics.”

"I never really got the idea of magnetic monopoles. I studied them for a couple weeks, but they just seem so intuitively wrong. Magnetic fields are caused by electrons moving... but if you have a monopole, that's like saying that you have electrons going somewhere but coming from nowhere. Or coming from somewhere and going to nowhere."

Monopoles can be modelled by unipolar magnetic domains, whose appearance is analogous to point source of electrostatic charge in certain extent.

Concept of magnetic monopole doesn't require pinpoint mass. Try to read my posts above. Anyons can be represented by quantum dots with charged particle trapped inside it and such hole can be quite large.

You qoute me out of context: I DID NOT say that a monopole requires a pinpoint mass. All I said is that it is just like the centre of mass of a hollow ball: It is a purely mathematical construct: Not an entity one can physically "see" in isolation.
Has an anyon ever been observed outside of Franck Wlczek's mind?

Human Brains Make Their Own 'Marijuana'
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/04/090420151240.htm
ScienceDaily (Apr. 20, 2009) — U.S. and Brazilian scientists have discovered that the brain manufactures proteins that act like marijuana at specific receptors in the brain itself. This discovery may lead to new marijuana-like drugs for managing pain, stimulating appetite, and preventing marijuana abuse.
"Ideally, this development will lead to drugs that bind to and activate the THC receptor, but are devoid of the side effects that limit the usefulness of marijuana," said Lakshmi A. Devi of the Department of Pharmacology and Systems Therapeutics at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York and one of the senior researchers involved in the study. "It would be helpful to have a drug that activated or blocked the THC receptor, and our findings raise the possibility that this will lead to effective drugs with fewer side effects."
Scientists made their discovery by first extracting several small proteins, called peptides, from the brains of mice and determining their amino acid sequence. The extracted proteins were then compared with another peptide previously known to bind to, but not activate, the receptor (THC) affected by marijuana. Out of the extracted proteins, several not only bound to the brain's THC receptors, but activated them as well.
"The War on Drugs has hit very close to home," said Gerald Weissmann, M.D., Editor-in-Chief of The FASEB Journal. "Last year, scientists found that our skin makes its own marijuana-like substance. Now, we see that our brain has been making proteins that act directly on the marijuana receptors in our head. The next step is for scientists to come up with new medicines that eliminate the nasty side of pot—a better joint, so to speak."

Ganas in Shanti Parva
A detailed analysis has been done about ganas in chapter 108 of Shanti Parva in which Yudhisthira asks Bhisma about the ganas that how ganas increase, how they defend themselves from the dividing-policy of enemies, what are the techniques to conquer enemies and making the ganas friends, how they hide their secret mantras being in majority. The Bhisma’s answers to these questions have been recorded in the form of shlokas (verses) from 16 – 32 in Shanti Parva. [5], [6]
[edit] Ganas in Vedas
Ganas have been narrated in Vedas in the form of assemblies of warriors as is clear from the following sutras of Rigveda (RV 3-26-6): [5]
व्रातं व्रातं गणम् गणम् Vrātam Vrātam gaṇam gaṇam
Gana in brief means an assembly. Ganatantra (republic) means a state run by assemblies.
The representative members of clans were known as ganas and their assembly as sanghas, there chief as ganadhipati or Ganesha and Ganapati.
[edit] Ganas in Buddhist literature
The Buddhist literature Mahabagga mentions that:
गण पूरकोवा भविस्सामीति Gaṇa pūrkovā bhavissāmīti
It indicates that there was an officer who used to see the number of ganas and their koram in the Rajasabha (state assembly).[5

Unbinilium
Unbinilium (pronounced /ˌʌnbɪˈnɪliəm/), also called eka-radium, is the temporary, systematic element name of an undiscovered chemical element in the periodic table that has the temporary symbol Ubn and has the atomic number 120.
Stable unbinilium
The element is of interest because it is part of the hypothesized island of stability, with isotope 318 being the most stable of those that can be created by current methods. Using the spherical model of shell formation, element 120 would be the heaviest element in an island of stability, and also, along with 114, the most spherical.[9]

Scientists show that people really walk in circles when lost (w/ Video)
August 20th, 2009 Enlarge

(PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists in the Multisensory Perception and Action Group at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen, Germany, led by Jan Souman and Marc Ernst, have now presented the first empirical evidence that people really walk in circles when they do not have reliable cues to their walking direction.
Their study, published today in the journal Current Biology, examined the walking trajectories of people who walked for several hours in the Sahara desert (Tunisia) and in the Bienwald forest area (Germany).
The scientists used the global positioning system (GPS) to record these trajectories. The results showed that participants were only able to keep a straight path when the sun or moon was visible. However, as soon as the sun disappeared behind some clouds, people started to walk in circles without even noticing it.

Speaking about the study, Jan Souman said: "One explanation offered in the past for walking in circles is that most people have one leg longer or stronger than the other, which would produce a systematic bias in one direction. To test this explanation, we instructed people to walk straight while blindfolded, thus removing the effects of vision. Most of the participants in the study walked in circles, sometimes in extremely small ones (diameter less than 20 metres)."
However, it turned out that these circles were rarely in a systematic direction. Instead, the same person sometimes veered to the left, sometimes to the right. Walking in circles is therefore not caused by differences in leg length or strength, but more likely the result of increasing uncertainty about where straight ahead is. "Small random errors in the various sensory signals that provide information about walking direction add up over time, making what a person perceives to be straight ahead drift away from the true straight ahead direction," according to Souman.

Marc Ernst, Group Leader at the MPI for Biological Cybernetics, added: "The results from these experiments show that even though people may be convinced that they are walking in a straight line, their perception is not always reliable. Additional, more cognitive, strategies are necessary to really walk in a straight line. People need to use reliable cues for walking direction in their environment, for example a tower or mountain in the distance, or the position of the sun." In future research, Souman and Ernst will focus on how people use these and various other sources of information to guide their walking direction.
For this, the scientists will use state-of-the-art Virtual Reality equipment, including a revolutionary new omnidirectional treadmill ("Cyber-carpet", see video). Participants will try to find their way through a virtual forest, while walking in place on the treadmill and never leaving the laboratory. This will allow the scientists to have much more control over the information available to participants, making it possible to better test specific explanations, for example how people use the position of the sun to orient themselves.

Despite their popularity in the science fiction genre, there is much to be learned about black holes, the mysterious regions in space once thought to be absent of light. In a paper published in the August 20 issue of Physical Review Letters, the flagship journal of the American Physical Society, Dartmouth researchers propose a new way of creating a reproduction black hole in the laboratory on a much-tinier scale than their celestial counterparts.
The new method to create a tiny quantum sized black hole would allow researchers to better understand what physicist Stephen Hawking proposed more than 35 years ago: black holes are not totally void of activity; they emit photons, which is now known as Hawking radiation.
"Hawking famously showed that black holes radiate energy according to a thermal spectrum," said Paul Nation, an author on the paper and a graduate student at Dartmouth. "His calculations relied on assumptions about the physics of ultra-high energies and quantum gravity. Because we can't yet take measurements from real black holes, we need a way to recreate this phenomenon in the lab in order to study it, to validate it."
In this paper, the researchers show that a magnetic field-pulsed microwave transmission line containing an array of superconducting quantum interference devices, or SQUIDs, not only reproduces physics analogous to that of a radiating black hole, but does so in a system where the high energy and quantum mechanical properties are well understood and can be directly controlled in the laboratory. The paper states, "Thus, in principle, this setup enables the exploration of analogue quantum gravitational effects."
"We can also manipulate the strength of the applied magnetic field so that the SQUID array can be used to probe black hole radiation beyond what was considered by Hawking," said Miles Blencowe, another author on the paper and a professor of physics and astronomy at Dartmouth.
This is not the first proposed imitation black hole, says Nation. Other proposed analogue schemes have considered using supersonic fluid flows, ultracold bose-einstein condensates and nonlinear fiber optic cables. However, the predicted Hawking radiation in these schemes is incredibly weak or otherwise masked by commonplace radiation due to unavoidable heating of the device, making the Hawking radiation very difficult to detect. "In addition to being able to study analogue quantum gravity effects, the new, SQUID-based proposal may be a more straightforward method to detect the Hawking radiation," says Blencowe.
In addition to Nation and Blencowe, other authors on the paper include Alexander Rimberg at Dartmouth and Eyal Buks at Technion in Haifa, Israel.

For example, humans lost their tail some time ago.
Who/What made that decision? I mean there has to be some intelligence, that is responsible for these changes.

Three Versions of Judas*
Jorge Luis Borges
There seemed a certainty in degradation.
- T. E. Lawrence, Seven Pillars of Wisdom
In Asia Minor or in Alexandria, in the second century of our faith (when Basilides was announcing that the cosmos was a rash and malevolent improvisation engineered by defective angels), Nils Runeberg might have directed, with a singular intellectual passion, one of the Gnostic monasteries. Dante would have destined him, perhaps, for a fiery sepulcher; his name might have augmented the catalogues of heresiarchs, between Satornibus and Carpocrates; some fragment of his preaching, embellished with invective, might have been preserved in the apocryphal Liber adversus omnes haereses or might have perished when the firing of a monastic library consumed the last example of the Syntagma. Instead, God assigned him to the twentieth century, and to the university city of Lund. There, in 1904, he published the first edition of Kristus och Judas; there, in 1909, his masterpiece Dem hemlige Frälsaren appeared. (Of this last mentioned work there exists a German version, Der heimliche Heiland, published in 1912 by Emil Schering.)
Before undertaking an examination of the foregoing works, it is necessary to repeat that Nils Runeberg, a member of the National Evangelical Union, was deeply religious. In some salon in Paris, or even in Buenos Aires, a literary person might well rediscover Runeberg's theses; but these arguments, presented in such a setting, would seem like frivolous and idle exercises in irrelevance or blasphemy. To Runeberg they were the key with which to decipher a central mystery of theology; they were a matter of meditation and analysis, of historic and philologic controversy, of loftiness, of jubilation, and of terror. They justified, and destroyed, his life. Whoever peruses this essay should know that it states only Runeberg's conclusions, not his dialectic or his proof. Someone may observe that no doubt the conclusion preceded the "proofs". For who gives himself up to looking for proofs of something he does not believe in or the predication of which he does not care about?
The first edition of Kristus och Judas bears the following categorical epigraph, whose meaning, some years later, Nils Runeberg himself would monstrously dilate:
Not one thing, but everything tradition attributes to Judas Iscariot is false.
(De Quincey, 1857.)
Preceded in his speculation by some German thinker, De Quincey opined that Judas had betrayed Jesus Christ in order to force him to declare his divinity and thus set off a vast rebellion against the yoke of Rome; Runeberg offers a metaphysical vindication. Skillfully, he begins by pointing out how superfluous was the act of Judas. He observes (as did Robertson) that in order to identify a master who daily preached in the synagogue and who performed miracles before gatherings of thousands, the treachery of an apostle is not necessary. This, nevertheless, occurred. To suppose an error in Scripture is intolerable; no less intolerable is it to admit that there was a single haphazard act in the most precious drama in the history of the world. Ergo, the treachery of Judas was not accidental; it was a predestined deed which has its mysterious place in the economy of the Redemption. Runeberg continues: The Word, when It was made flesh, passed from ubiquity into space, from eternity into history, from blessedness without limit to mutation and death; in order to correspond to such a sacrifice it was necessary that a man, as representative of all men, make a suitable sacrifice. Judas Iscariot was that man. Judas, alone among the apostles, intuited the secret divinity and the terrible purpose of Jesus. The Word had lowered Himself to be mortal; Judas, the disciple of the Word, could lower himself to the role of informer (the worst transgression dishonor abides), and welcome the fire which can not be extinguished. The lower order is a mirror of the superior order, the forms of the earth correspond to the forms of the heavens; the stains on the skin are a map of the incorruptible constellations; Judas in some way reflects Jesus. Thus the thirty pieces of silver and the kiss; thus deliberate self-destruction, in order to deserve damnation all the more. In this manner did Nils Runeberg elucidate the enigma of Judas.
The theologians of all the confessions refuted him. Lars Peter Engström accused him of ignoring, or of confining to the past, the hypostatic union of the Divine Trinity; Axel Borelius charged him with renewing the heresy of the Docetists, who denied the humanity of Jesus; the sharp tongued bishop of Lund denounced him for contradicting the third verse of chapter twenty-two of the Gospel of St.
Luke.
These various anathemas influenced Runeberg, who partially rewrote the disapproved book and modified his doctrine. He abandoned the terrain of theology to his adversaries and postulated oblique arguments of a moral order. He admitted that Jesus, "who could count on the considerable resources which Omnipotence offers," did not need to make use of a man to redeem all men. Later, he refuted those who affirm that we know nothing of the inexplicable traitor; we know, he said, that he was one of the apostles, one of those chosen to announce the Kingdom of Heaven, to cure the sick, to cleanse the leprous, to resurrect the dead, and to cast out demons (Matthew 10:7-8; Luke 9:1). A man whom the Redeemer has thus distinguished deserves from us the best interpretations of his deeds. To impute his crime to cupidity (as some have done, citing John 12:6) is to resign oneself to the most torpid motive force. Nils Runeberg proposes an opposite moving force: an extravagant and even limitless asceticism. The ascetic, for the greater glory of God, degrades and mortifies the flesh; Judas did the same with the spirit. He renounced honor, good, peace, the Kingdom of Heaven, as others, less heroically, renounced pleasure.1 With a terrible lucidity he premeditated his offense.
In adultery, there is usually tenderness and self-sacrifice; in murder, courage; in profanation and blasphemy, a certain satanic splendor. Judas elected those offenses unvisited by any virtues: abuse of confidence (John 12 :6) and informing. He labored with gigantic humility; he thought himself unworthy to be good. Paul has written: Whoever glorifieth himself, let him glorify himself in the Lord. (I Corinthians 1:31); Judas sought Hell because the felicity of the Lord sufficed him. He thought that happiness, like good, is a divine attribute and not to be usurped by men.2
Many have discovered post factum that in the justifiable beginnings of Runeberg lies his extravagant end and that Dem hemlige Frälsaren is a mere perversion or exacerbation of Kristus och Judas. Toward the end of 1907, Runeberg finished and revised the manuscript text; almost two years passed without his handing it to the printer. In October of 1909, the book appeared with a prologue (tepid to the point of being enigmatic) by the Danish Hebraist Erik Erfjord and bearing this perfidious epigraph: In the world he was, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not (John 1:10). The general argument is not complex, even if the conclusion is monstrous. God, argues Nils Runeberg, lowered himself to be a man for the redemption of the human race; it is reasonable to assume that thesacrifice offered by him was perfect, not invalidated or attenuated by any omission. To limit all that happened to the agony of one afternoon on the cross is blasphemous.3 To affirm that he was a man and that he was incapable of sin contains a contradiction; the attributes of impeccabilitas and of humanitas are not compatible. Kemnitz admits that the Redeemer could feel fatigue, cold, confusion, hunger and thirst; it is reasonable to admit that he could also sin and be damned. The famous text "He will sprout like a root in a dry soil; there is not good mien to him, nor beauty; despised of men and the least of them; a man of sorrow, and experienced in heartbreaks" (Isaiah 53:2-3) is for many people a forecast of the Crucified in the hour of his death; for some (as for instance, Hans Lassen Martensen), it is a refutation of the beauty which the vulgar consensus attributes to Christ; for Runeberg, it is a precise prophecy, not of one moment, but of all the atrocious future, in time and eternity, of the Word made flesh. God became a man completely, a man to the point of infamy, a man to the point of being reprehensible - all the way to the abyss. In order to save us, He could have chosen any of the destinies which together weave the uncertain web of history; He could have been Alexander, or Pythagoras, or Rurik, or Jesus; He chose an infamous destiny: He was Judas.
In vain did the bookstores of Stockholm and Lund offer this revelation. The incredulous considered it, a priori, an insipid and laborious theological game; the theologians disdained it. Runeberg intuited from this universal indifference an almost miraculous confirmation. God had commanded this indifference; God did not wish His terrible secret propagated in the world. Runeberg understood that the hour had not yet come. He sensed ancient and divine curses converging upon him, he remembered Elijah and Moses, who covered their faces on the mountain top so as not to see God; he remembered Isaiah, who prostrated himself when his eyes saw That One whose glory fills the earth; Saul who was blinded on the road to Damascus; the rabbi Simon ben Azai, who saw Paradise and died; the famous soothsayer John of Viterbo, who went mad when he was able to see the Trinity; the Midrashim, abominating the impious who pronounce the Shem Hamephorash, the secret name of God. Wasn't he, perchance, guilty of this dark crime? Might not this be the blasphemy against the Spirit, the sin which will not be pardoned (Matthew 12:3)? Valerius Soranus died for having revealed the occult name of Rome; what infinite punishment would be his for having discovered and divulged the terrible name of God?
Intoxicated with insomnia and with vertiginous dialectic, Nils Runeberg wandered through the streets of Malmö, praying aloud that he be given the grace to share Hell with the Redeemer.
He died of the rupture of an aneurysm, the first day of March 1912. The writers on heresy, the heresiologists, will no doubt remember him; he added to the concept of the Son, which seemed exhausted, the complexities of calamity and evil.
up1 Borelius mockingly interrogates: Why did he not renounce to renounce? Why not renounce renouncing?
up2 Euclydes da Cunha, in a book ignored by Runeberg, notes that for the heresiarch of Canudos, Antonio Conselheiro, virtue was "a kind of impiety almost." An Argentine reader could recall analogous passages in the work of Almafuerte. Runeberg published, in the symbolist sheet Sju insegel, an assiduously descriptive poem, "The Secret Water": the first stanzas narrate the events of one tumultuous day; the last, the finding of a glacial pool; the poet suggests that the eternalness of this silent water checks our useless violence, and in some way allows and absolves it. The poem concludes in this way:
The water of the forest is still and felicitous,
And we, we can be vicious and full of pain.
up3 Maurice Abramowicz observes: "Jesus, d'apres ce scandinave, a toujours le beau role; ses deboires, grace a la science des typographes, jouissent d'une reputation polyglotte; sa residence de trente-trois ans parmis les humains ne fut, en somne, qu'une villegiature." Erfjord, in the third appendix to the
Christelige Dogmatik, refutes this passage. He writes that the crucifying of God has not ceased, for anything which has happened once in time is repeated ceaselessly through all eternity. Judas, now, continues to receive the pieces of silver; he continues to hurl the pieces of silver in the temple; he continues to knot the hangman's noose on the field of blood. (Erfjord, to justify this affirmation, invokes the last chapter of the first volume of the Vindication of Eternity, by Jaromir Hladlk.)

Do you fully understand Tensors in particular with respect to angular momentum?
For example the 'Tensor' acting along the axis of a spinning mass is not only at right angles but has sense (depending on clockwise or anticlockwise spin).
However, BAUT assure me that this is not a force. If it has direction and acts along an axis what is it then?

Blog: Russian Human Genome Project discovers Extraterrestrial
abilities to modify DNA through a "biological internet"
http://www.agoracosmopolitan.com/home/Frontpage/2007/05/15/images/biological_internet.jpgby Mary Rodwell [Excerpted]
Some recent Russian DNA discoveries documented by Grazyna Fosar and Franz Bludorf in their book Vernetzte Intelligenz have been summarised by Baerbel. ‘The human DNA is a biological Internet’ with evidence that DNA can be ‘influenced and reprogrammed by words and frequencies.’ This suggests that ‘our DNA is not only responsible for the construction of our body, but also serves as data storage and communication.’ The Russian scientists and linguists have found that the genetic code ‘follows the same rules as all our human languages.’ In effect, human language did not appear coincidentally but is a reflection of our DNA.
The Russian researchers believe that ‘Living chromosomes function just like a holographic computer using endogenous DNA laser radiation.

I traced this back to a German publication. I think the study is either made up or misrepresented by Hoaxes R Us.

Angular momentum is conserved in a system
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimension
The dimension of Euclidean n-space E n is n. When trying to generalize to other types of spaces, one is faced with the question “what makes E^n n-dimensional?" One answer is that in order to cover a fixed ball in E n by small balls of radius ε, one needs on the order of ε−n such small balls. This observation leads to the definition of the Minkowski dimension and its more sophisticated variant, the Hausdorff dimension. But there are also other answers to that question. For example, one may observe that the boundary of a ball in E^n looks locally like E^n − 1 and this leads to the notion of the inductive dimension. While these notions agree on E^n, they turn out to be different when one looks at .....

Report abusive post I saw REAL blood on the moon Jan. 14, 2006
Quote
It was Jan, 10th 2006 and I found out there were two volcano’s going off one on the north pole and the other on the south pole.
I knew in my heart that these were signs in the earth. That the earth was in travail and it was a sign we are in the last days.
Having understood this very clearly, I then decided to get up early the next Saturday morning and take pictures of the moon as it was setting. I have a digital binocular camera and I can see the man on the moon very well with it. However, at dusk and dawn it does not take pictures very well.
Nevertheless, I was taking pictures anyway.
My house is in the country and it faces the west and I am up on a hill. So I had a pretty good view from my front window.
I was up early as planned and I was just enjoying the moon.
It was Jan. 14, 2006.
I had no idea it was going to be a full moon or a clear day, but it was both.
It finally started getting lighter and the moon was very big because it was winter and it is closer to earth in the winter.
It was also very bright. I could see the man on the moon laying down looking upwards.
I was looking at this quite a while when all of a sudden, there in the middle of the moon a huge ocean of blood appeared.
It did not cover the whole moon but almost.
I could see it splashing like an ocean. I watched this for a little bit and then it started forming a river at the bottom of the moon. It looked very much like a uterus with an umbilical cord. This river stared flowing downwards and then sideways, and then upwards and then about half way up on the left side of the moon, the blood river turned left and all that blood flowed behind the moon in about 60 seconds.
It did not just vanish, that blood is on the other side of the moon. Have you ever wondered why we never see the other side of the moon???
Anyway before I get side tracked I have to finish my story.
I was stunned to say the least! I knew this was a real sign on the moon showing that we are in the very last days!
Well that morning I was going to a meeting as it was a Saturday. Our pastors wife was holding a women’s meeting.
So I decided to go and tell her what I had seen.
I waited till she was through ministering to all the ladies that had come for prayer so I would not int erupt her ministry to them.
I told her what I had seen. She was very tired and it did not seem to really register.
So I decided to listen to their radio broadcast the next week to see if they would talk about the last days. Sure enough they did.
She was talking and this is what I remember her saying on the radio. I can probably order the tapes to verify this in the future.
She said:
You know I was talking to my husband, and I told him, I don’t know if we are in the last of the last days. No one has ever come up to me and told me that they were Jesus Christ.
(I guess that was the sign she was waiting for to let her know we are in the last of the last days).
She then said;
Except this last Sunday, (day after I told her about the blood), she said a man came up to her in church and told her that he was Jesus Christ, and he asked her if she wanted him to be her Lord and Saviour.
So I guess she got the sign she needed to verify that we are in the last of the last days and also to let her know that I DID see real blood on the moon!!!
Anyway that is my true story! I have told it over and over. It is still the same story because it is true!!!

The Scalar Jump and Weapons

Report abusive post The Scalar Jump and Weapons
Quote
You all know what the Scalar Weapons are:
there are:
-the HAARP facility in Alaska which is producing earthquakes
-the Russian facility at Novgorod that is producing tornadoes
-the Norwegian facility that produces volcanoes
These weapons operate on the principle of a scalar jump namely:
They influence a very small area around the facility and that cancer replicates itself into the planet consciousness to strike somewhere else
ä butterfly in America makes a tornado in Asia"
A Scalar jump is a transition from an individual cell consciousness to a larger,more organized group consciousness
For instance:
when a child is conceived,it exists as a single cell
that cell divides itself in 2,then 4 ,8,16...
the geometrical progression of 2 continues until there are roughly 16000 cells
Those cells unite in a group and at that moment a scalar jump is produced:
those cells no longer see themselves as individual cell organisms ,but as a pluricellular organism
That organism develops tissues,specialized cells,organs,much like a human society
and finally,those 2 billion cells form an individual who is born and is called by his mother with a Single Name
Thus,he is an Individual
Later,that individual enters a group drug addicts
They meet together
At some point in time,when they are all drunk and drugged ,they lose their individuality and gain aGroup individuality:
The group of drug addicts ,armed with....
or he enters a Kaballah group
at some point in time,that group gains an individuality and becomes a cell in the jewish nation
and so on
groups from cities
cities form nations
nations form this planet
planets form a galaxy
galaxies form a universe
That is the principle upon which the meteorological weapons are based

It is quite simple
Google a picture of HAARP and you'll see lots of small ,but tall antennas grouped together
Each antenna produces a small disturbance in the Earth's magnetic field
These distrubances unite themselves into a greater disturbance
The Earthly magnetic field is very organized with meridians and parallels
Thus it is very accurate to predict whether the reaction will occur
These reactions are like when you're going into a group and suddenly you start doing the opposite of what they are doing
The group is suddenly in chaos for a short time and they will kick you out
Exactly this happens in the earth's magnetic field,only that the reaction is much bigger than the initial input
this disturbance creates a movement of Earth's crust and thus,earthquakes
Same principle is applies to the movement of atmosphere currents
Most tornadoes are started in the gulf of Mexico in order to aim at the southern coast of USA
Americans create earthquakes for Russians and they respond with tornadoes

Attend the present to deal with the past;
Thus you grasp the continuity of the Way,
Which is its essence.
http://www.chinapage.com/laozi2.gif
2. Abstraction
When beauty is abstracted
Then ugliness has been implied;
When good is abstracted
Then evil has been implied.
So alive and dead are abstracted from nature,
Difficult and easy abstracted from progress,
Long and short abstracted from contrast,
High and low abstracted from depth,
Song and speech abstracted from melody,
After and before abstracted from sequence.
The sage experiences without abstraction,
And accomplishes without action;
He accepts the ebb and flow of things,
Nurtures them, but does not own them,
And lives, but does not dwell.
3. Without Action
Not praising the worthy prevents contention,
Not esteeming the valuable prevents theft,
Not displaying the beautiful prevents desire.
In this manner the sage governs people:
Emptying their minds,
Filling their bellies,
Weakening their ambitions,
And strengthening their bones.
If people lack knowledge and desire
Then they can not act;
If no action is taken
Harmony remains.
4. Limitless
The Way is a limitless vessel;
Used by the self, it is not filled by the world;
It cannot be cut, knotted, dimmed or stilled;
Its depths are hidden, ubiquitous and eternal;
I don't know where it comes from;
It comes before nature.
39. Support
In mythical times all things were whole:
All the sky was clear,
All the earth was stable,
All the mountains were firm,
All the riverbeds were full,
All of nature was fertile,
And all the rulers were supported.
But, losing clarity, the sky tore;
Losing stability, the earth split;
Losing strength, the mountains sank;
Losing water, the riverbeds cracked;
Losing fertility, nature disappeared;
And losing support, the rulers fell.
Rulers depend upon their subjects,
The noble depend upon the humble;
So rulers call themselves orphaned, hungry and alone,
To win the people's support.
7. Complete
Nature is complete because it does not serve itself.
The sage places himself after and finds himself before,
Ignores his desire and finds himself content.
He is complete because he does not serve himself.
9. Retire
Fill a cup to its brim and it is easily spilled;
Temper a sword to its hardest and it is easily broken;
Amass the greatest treasure and it is easily stolen;
Claim credit and honour and you easily fall;
Retire once your purpose is achieved - this is natural.
17. Rulers
The best rulers are scarcely known by their subjects;
The next best are loved and praised;
The next are feared;
The next despised:
They have no faith in their people,
And their people become unfaithful to them.
When the best rulers achieve their purpose
Their subjects claim the achievement as their own.
18. Hypocrisy
When the Way is forgotten
Duty and justice appear;
Then knowledge and wisdom are born
Along with hypocrisy.
When harmonious relationships dissolve
Then respect and devotion arise;
When a nation falls to chaos
Then loyalty and patriotism are born.
40. Motion and Use
The motion of the Way is to return;
The use of the Way is to accept;
All things come from the Way,
And the Way comes from nothing.
55. Soft Bones
Who is filled with harmony is like a newborn.
Wasps and snakes will not bite him;
Hawks and tigers will not claw him.
His bones are soft yet his grasp is sure,
For his flesh is supple;
His mind is innocent yet his body is virile,
For his vigour is plentiful;
His song is long-lasting yet his voice is sweet,
For his grace is perfect.
But knowing harmony creates abstraction,
And following abstraction creates ritual.
Exceeding nature creates calamity,
And controlling nature creates violence.
65. Subtlety
The ancients did not seek to rule people with knowledge,
But to help them become natural.
It is difficult for knowledgeable people to become natural;
So to use law to control a nation weakens the nation,
But to use nature to control a nation strengthens the nation.
Understanding these two paths is understanding subtlety;
Subtlety runs deep, ranges wide,
Resolves confusion and preserves peace.
72. Revolution
When people have nothing more to lose,
Then revolution will result.
Do not take away their lands,
And do not destroy their livelihoods;
If your burden is not heavy then they will not shirk it.
The sage maintains himself but exacts no tribute,
Values himself but requires no honours;
He ignores abstraction and accepts substance.
Tao De Ching. (http://www.chinapage.com/gnl.html)
Fate's net is vast and its mesh is coarse,
Yet none escape it.

History of the Dark Age
Quote
(This is Part 2 of my chronicle of the history from your time period to my time period in the 109th century.)
The Dark Age
Overview
The beginning of the Dark Age is usually dated to the fall of Paris and Beijing on October 9, 2101.
Roughly the first half of the Dark Age was distinguished by a state of global anarchy. Government on any level was nonexistent; the resulting degree of personal freedom was tempered by a lack of even the most basic services. The wanton lawlessness of the large cities proved to be far too dangerous for most people, and many cities were almost completely abandoned as people began to roam the countryside in search of the fundamental necessities of living. In some places, warlords assembled armed militias and preyed on those who were weaker. Most of the infrastructure that had not been destroyed during World War V or earlier was destroyed by vandals during the Dark Age, leaving the people of the Dark Age with little or no access to previously created technology. Very few artifacts remain from the early Dark Age; most surviving items from this period are makeshift implements adapted from naturally available raw materials or scavenged 21st century objects.
During roughly the second half of the Dark Age, simple forms of social cohesion began to reemerge. People settled down in the areas in which they found themselves able to satisfy their basic needs. The permanent dwelling ensured a higher degree of safety and comfort for its inhabitants, and such dwellings naturally clustered together. The reestablishment of permanent settlements created the need to enforce fairness and justice in interpersonal relationships; as a result, local governments started to take shape. Still, without any regional government, a criminal could escape justice simply by leaving the area. Eventually, these small communities began to rebuild the infrastructure of the previous civilization, providing limited electricity and clean water for their residents. Over time, multiple settlements sought mutual cooperation, which led to the formation of loose regional governments in some places. These regional governments proved to be able to muster militias of their own to fend off marauding warlords and outlaw bands; at times, the regional governments no doubt clashed with one another over land or resources.
Throughout the Dark Age, it was actually infectious disease, and not violence, that posed the greatest threat to human life. Medical care was practically nonexistent, and most ailments went untreated, resulting in high mortality. Where it was available, some Dark Age people made a tea from coca leaves, used as a stimulant to provide energy.
Though Dark Age conditions prevailed in different regions for different lengths of time, historians traditionally refer to January 20, 2278, the date of the founding of the American Theocracy, the first national government to exist since the 21st century, as the end of the Dark Age.
Dark Age Events
The Dark Age produced no contemporary historians, with the struggles for survival that characterized this time period leaving little time for documenting events. The only histories of this period that are available to modern researchers were compiled by writers living some time after the Dark Age. The many blatant contradictions between individual historical writings suggest that they contain radical embellishments, deliberate minimizations, and intentional omissions.
Some of these ancient historians mention three short outbursts of conflict, called the Tech Wars, taking place during the early Dark Age. The first of these is usually recorded as beginning in 2115 and ending in 2117, while the second is generally said to have started in 2139 and ended in 2143, and the third is recorded as having taken place in 2145 and 2146. Most sources that mention these wars describe them as rivalries between some of the more powerful warlords vying for control of various pieces of usable 21st century technological remains, and the violence is almost always said to have consumed both sides of the conflicts, with death tolls—intensified by the lack of effective medical care—ranging between 170 million and 250 million.
The majority of sources describe another war, referred to as the Century War, beginning in 2177 and continuing until the nominal end of the Dark Age, or even afterwards in some regions. Ancient historians commonly claim that this war destroyed about 10.5 billion human lives, making it the most deadly conflict in history. However, modern scholars have theorized that accounts of the Century War are in fact conflated depictions of the entire Dark Age itself.
Religion in the Dark Age
During the Dark Age, religion reasserted itself strongly in private life, as the trials and uncertainties of daily life seemed to continuously defeat human strength and intellect, driving the people of the Dark Age to seek protection and guidance from divine sources. Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism were especially resurgent; Wicca and other neopagan faiths also flourished, in many cases in syncretism with other religious traditions. On the other hand, Hinduism and Islam languished; Hinduism collapsed as the lower castes rejected the religion’s longstanding social order, while Islam suffered a severe depopulation as a result of the warfare that had devastated the Middle East in the 21st century.
The Dark Age also produced a short-lived new religious cult, known as Dajjalism, which was rejected as blatantly heretical, demonic, or destructive, by all of the other religious traditions of the period. The accuracy of ancient treatises on Dajjalism is questionable, and the extant writings of its founder are known to have suffered severe alterations, yet it is fairly certain that Dajjalism was centered on a man who claimed to be the Dajjal of Islamic eschatology. Ancient writers variously describe Dajjalism as anything from a minor sect barely encompassing Baghdad to a massive imperial theocracy engulfing virtually the entire land mass of Asia, Africa, and Europe; one document even reports a short Dajjalist foray into North America.
Perhaps no other historical figure has been subject to as much exaggeration as this Dajjal claimant has. Many ancient sources describe him as a terrifying undead cybernetic being with a red, illuminated eyepiece in place of his natural eye. His teachings are said to have been based on his own assertion of godhood and an invitation to followers to join him in his divinity through ritual mutilation and cybernetic augmentation. A few ancient historians denied this man’s existence entirely; at the other extreme, some sources name him as the primary instigator and antagonist of the Century War. The writings known to have been composed by this Dajjal claimant deal mainly with technology as an essential catalyst for human evolution and perfection. The logical flow of the extant text is frequently punctuated with outbursts of maniacal anger directed at a wide variety of targets for no apparent reason; these interruptions are generally regarded by scholars as having been added by a later editor or polemical commentator.
In any case, Dajjalism did not survive long after the end of the Dark Age. A number of historical records describe successful anti-Dajjalist pogroms that appear to have exterminated the vast majority of the sect’s adherents. The Temple of Dajjal, apparently the cult’s only sacred site, is said to have been abandoned by the Dajjalists and then meticulously dismantled and literally reduced to dust by a military expedition sent from the American Theocracy.
Arts in the Dark Age
The arts of the Dark Age were generally practical in nature. Visual art consisted primarily of diagrams intended to communicate useful information to friends, family, or posterity. Since paper was easily destroyed, and in any case was in short supply due to the total collapse of industry, the people of the Dark Age sought more permanent media in which to create such images; diagrams were often drawn on concrete fragments or scratched onto metal. An example of this Dark Age art is a sketch on concrete found near the ruins of Mexico City, depicting the construction of a wood-powered electric generator.
Literature in the Dark Age manifested in two main forms. The first consisted of brief instructive notes on various topics relevant to subsistence living, such as farming, fishing, and construction of shelters and makeshift technological implements. These often accompanied diagrams like those described above. The other major form of literature in the Dark Age related to practical spirituality and included prayers intended to secure a divine blessing in specific endeavors.
Unfortunately, no Dark Age music has survived to the present, though certain prayer texts contain annotations that appear to have served to indicate the proper way of singing the prayers within a liturgical framework. The simplicity of these annotations suggests that the melodies they represented were likewise simple and unsystematic.
Legacy of the Dark Age
Although the Dark Age was less than 200 years in length, it had lasting effects on the international power structure. The anarchy and technological collapse of the Dark Age served as an equalizer, reducing all regions, cultures, and ethnicities to nearly the same level of poverty and powerlessness. After the Dark Age, the international power structure realigned based on the distribution of usable natural resources. Regions with large amounts of natural resources, such as Africa and South America, were positioned to become global superpowers; regions that had expended most of their original natural resources, such as Europe, and regions that were especially devastated by the wars of the 21st century, such as the Middle East, fell to third world status.
Additionally, the anarchy of the Dark Age led to realignment along ethnic, religious, and cultural lines. National entities that had previously achieved coherence mainly through military power or a unified political system dissolved when military power and political systems ceased to exist. After the Dark Age, ethnicity and religion were the primary unifying forces; as a result, the new national entities that were established in the wake of the Dark Age generally encompassed only a single ethnic or religious group. Multiethnic and multireligious regions fragmented, while regions consisting of a single ethnic group or faith that had previously been separated along purely political lines now sought unity.
The end result of all of these factors is that the geopolitical structure after the Dark Ages was very different from that which preceded it.

A new medieval period, great. Sounds creepy.
Where was located the American Theocracy after those dark years?
Regarding the dark age itself, what kind of technologies were still used besides the apparent general lack of it?
What happened in the next categories:
Transport (aerial, terrestrial, maritime)
Energy (production, delivery)
Industry and/or general item production and delivery, if possible, of food, tools, clothes, housing.
Thanks in advance.

Good questions 225527!
Also, you say technology is basically wiped, does this lead to totally new theories, a completely new technology timeline (completely different technologies unrelated to current).
What about scientific theories, whaat happens to them?

The American Theocracy at its furthest extent included the entire United States and parts of Canada and Mexico.
All technology used in the Dark Age was either scavenged from the ruins of the 21st century, or built from naturally available items.
For transportation, most people walked. Some people were able to scavenge cars and gasoline; the best chance of doing this was in Alaska. There are a few diagrams from that period that show how to build external combustion vehicles. Boats could be built or scavenged; boat engines and fuel had to be scavenged. There was no air travel.
As for energy, people had to produce it themselves. For most Dark Age people, fire was the only source of energy. Some people were able to build water wheels or steam generators to produce small amounts of electricity.
There was no real industry to speak of in the Dark Age. People generally made things themselves, or scavenged them. To survive, they had to grow their own food, make their own tools, sew their own clothes, and build their own houses; otherwise they had to depend on found items.

Quoting: Wheeelman
Much of the technology of the previous century was destroyed, but some of it remained. Also, the technological knowledge was retained, both in remaining records and in the memories and writings of people who used to be experts.
After the Dark Age, most technology was based on the technologies and knowledge that remained. So post-Dark Age technologies still had a resemblance to 21st century technology.
This also helped civilization to return to its prior technological level much more quickly that it originally took to invent those technologies.
Scientific theories such as the Topological Theory of Relativity and Chaotic Quantum Physics survived the Dark Age. The next major theoretical advances did not happen until the founding of Old China.
