☣ 'The Swine Flu Conspiracy' ☠

I wonder why the Obama girls won't be getting vaccinated. I guess they don't go to school or anything.

France cheats its way into World Cup

What I don't get is if the player tells the ref that he touched it with his hand shouldn't that be enough to disqualify the goal? It is really easy to instinctively reach out and touch the ball but it sounds like Thierry told the ref what happened. When I used to play soccer that might have been frowned upon by your own team (depending on the coaches) but the refs certainly listened to the players if they ever called something on themselves.

Urban myths about climate change

Since global warming is so controversial and hard to prove why even mention it? Air quality should be plenty of reason to lower emissions and this problem has plenty of non-controversial proof. Why even talk about global warming when it basically impossible to prove when there are plenty of other reasons to lower emissions.

I will promise you this..

People complain about the corporations having too much power. The corporations don't vote, individual people do. The only way the corporations can take power is for people to give it to them. Stop complaining and start doing. The rich few are laughing all the way to our graves while we stand idly by letting them do as they please. The rich few would love for us to believe we cannot change anything, that we have no power. The truth is the few cannot rule over the many unless the many let them.

Curb Your Enthusiasm - Sweden and Norway are not the same!

Language, culture, food, is almost the same. If you can read one language you can read the other. It is harder when speaking to understand everything because of the accents. The variations in habitat have more of a cultural impact than nationality. But I must say I meet people from Norway, Sweden and Denmark who are fiercely nationalistic even though we share so much history and culture but I don't find that to be the norm and saying Sven is a Norwegian name is certainly not accurate. It is a name much older than the current nations as are most names and cultures in Scandinavia.

16 yr old has ridiculously simple idea, makes $$$

It is perfectly safe. It will only move when there is a light force applied. as soon as there is any larger force applied it locks. Simple perfect design. All you have to focus on is making it and the installation strong enough.

Mother Nature Warms Up The Crowd

I love the people cheering the spectacular sky and the lightning. I am always amazed by what one can see just by looking at natural phenomena that people just seem to ignore for the most part.

Dennis Kucinich Raises a Valid Point on Health Care

Never mind that Gandhi showed the futility of armed conflict. One would think that after such an example anyone with at least a minimum of intelligence would realize the complete uselessness of armed forces.
Every conflict we have been in since then could have been resolved through non-violent resistance with fewer lives lost than in an armed conflict so why have armed forces at all?

Dennis Kucinich Raises a Valid Point on Health Care

Never mind that medicare for everyone would save hundreds of billions for taxpayers. Even people who currently don't pay for healthcare would benefit. Universal healthcare gives you more options, better quality and lower cost so why not?

Lara Logan reports on the Yakuza

Being part of a group shouldn't be illegal nor an excuse. One should only be responsible for ones own individual actions. That seems fair to me.

Brian Cox at TEDtalks on the Large Hadron Collider

particles don't exist though so not so strange that the equation for the standard model is so convoluted. Vibrations might seem like particles but at some point we've got to think about vibrations and the harmonics of those vibrations which cause particle and mass like observations. Plus you don't need the "forces" when you think about vibrations and their harmonic influence of each other. No matter how much I search the web I don't find people talking about not needing forces as we commonly think of them and I still see mention of the particle/wave duality as if particles actually existed. Particles and forces may be a useful way of looking at larger events in physics as kind of a shorthand like we talk about cells and chemicals in biology but when you are actually talking about what the underlying nature of the universe is it seems I should at least find one reference to harmonics instead of forces.
