Please indulge me in one particularly crass one-liner today. It demanded to go public…
- General James Cartwright gives a rundown of yesterday’s satellite destruction (with video of the strike). A good detailed and open talk, worth checking out. Also, a DoD photo essay charts the operation.
- And: U.S. to share satellite strike data with China. Just to show them what the U.S. is capable of…
- Giant meteor explodes over Northwest U.S. No word yet as to whether extraterrestrials will be sharing the data on that one.
- Martian crater records aftermath of Amazon-like flood.
- Animals are smart, but they don’t think like autistic savants.
- Brain Gym: nonsense dressed up as neuroscience?
- The location of the elusive G-spot – fingered at last!
- Raelians move from clones to clitorises.
- Panic after ‘Franken-fish’ is caught in Britain.
- Are there lots of Earths out there? We may need a spare one some time soon…
- And yet: could greenhouse gases become gasoline?
- Student invents lamp powered by gravity.
- Media criticize JFK conspiracy theorists, before any theories begin.
- Speaking of, the Washington Post scoffs at Paranoia Magazine (with not one, but two tinfoil hat references…some original writing there).
- The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe voted best children’s book of all time. Some wonderful memories in that top fifty list.
- Former Spiritualist leader imprisoned for child rape. Because belief in the paranormal is a slippery slope towards immoral behaviour.
- The remnants of ten pyramids have been discovered on the coast of Peru.
- Have pilgrims to Ireland been kissing the wrong stone? The Blarney Stone’s custodian disagrees.
- Confucius has more than 3 million living descendants.
- Breathtaking monasteries from around the world.
- Le serpent rouge…d’Iran.
- Are illegal tactics against Scientology justified?
- Pwnage news? Google to store patient’s health records.
- A robot that dances your dreams.
Thanks Rick and RPJ.
Quote of the Day:
What’s frustrating is that in this extremely fascinating, important, potentially highly impactful area, research is proceeding so slowly because of excesses of skepticism and fear in the scientific community.
