Here is a lovely little bit of information about deadly weapons that are still in use today, and should have been banned from there conception.  It sickens me they amount of time humanity spends on creating ways to kill each other.

What is so wrong about wanting to live with one another in peace? Actually talk to someone before you judge them? or bomb them...

Meditation

I am sure most of you have heard of this ancient practice, I am also sure a lot of you don't believe it is useful for anything.  Well you couldn't be more wrong, this is one of the best and easiest practices to start doing, and it helps reduce stress and anxiety.  As well as gain creative flow again, help you focus on tasks that previously frustrated you.  It is usually a daily routine set early in the mornings, but you can do it any part of the day, and it only takes about 20 minutes a day, you can however do it for much longer if you wish.

Meditation can also lead to out of body experiences if you practice long enough, you mind is the ultimate drug, why hurt and abuse your body with these chemicals when you can jump into the deepest parts of your mind and see them as vivid a dream or even real life if you have the knack for it.

Some of the benefits of meditation.

The Time Lens or Time Cloak

This little device is quite a large leap in humanity, this allows the user to temporarily pause or stop an event in time, maybe not quite to what you are thinking.  The main research that has been done on this is using the device to bend the temporal space time of light to make it slow down and speed up in certain parts of the beam, but it does not effect the over all beam of light, it basically still looks like a full beam of light although there is a sped up and slowed down section which creates a gap in the middle of the beam.

This can be use for something such as, a laser that sets off an alarm if you walk through it, this device would create a gap that you can pass through but the information for the detector never notices because the beam is still visually there entering the detector.

This has also lead to the development of the cloaking device, which I am sure a lot of you have heard of already.  It made is way into car commercials. (sadly) The quantum stealth blanket, is also a large jump for humanity, I just hope that it gets used properly...

Some more news from the Canadian Government, this is all getting out of hand.  The Canadian Government should not be allowed to get away with this non sense of shutting down this many research facilities, the majority of them have been environmental research, which makes sense as to why Canada is now last in the Environmental Protection Ranking.

Alan Watts:  The Dream of Life

This is a very interesting discussion of a view on life, and what the infinite possibilities of the universe can hold within yourself and your own imagination and mind.

This is the Glass Frog

This is not only an amazing creature, but it could be used in class rooms, instead of just dissecting an animal to see its insides, why not just use these little guys and just have a look see from the outside.  This way you would not even need to harm an animal to learn from it anymore.

Ted Talks: Imaging a trillion frames per second

By: Ramesh Raskar


This is an amazing break through in technology, it allows you to see inside of the human body without the need of an X-Ray, it can record so fast you can see light moving!  This can even see around corners by emitting photons and having them reflect on a surface around a corner and back to the surface and into the lens, this will make amazing new discoveries as long as we all support this idea and keep it going.

Athene's Theory to everything

A very interesting video that is a theory to connecting everything, in search of the singularity.  This does make a lot of good connections as to how things work and reactive with each other through out the universe.

A sickening little story about Canada, dead last for Environmental Protection.  This is what the Harper Government is doing to this beautiful country.  This kind of stuff is not only happening in Canada though, this is a world wide problem.  We should be doing something as the people of these countries to stop the destruction and start a new with new leaders that care for more then just money.

"When you poison the last lake, burn the last forest, and pollute the last bit of oxygen.... Only then will you find out you can't eat, drink, or breath money."

Alan Watts: Discussion on Nothingness

A very well said discussion, a lot of views of Buddhist beliefs.  You should not be scared even if there is nothing afterwards.... Think, where were you before you were born?
