POPSTravel photography - fun perspectives It's a great series of photographs. I can't seem to find out by whom though. I like the idea of it...though I'm not too sure about covering up the actual landmark itself....maybe something alongside it instead....but still a great idea. EDIT: Michael Hughes ....found him!!! Voila his Flickr page.

POPSThe Most Beautiful Beaches of the World Good grief, these pictures remind me, that I need a change of scenery! Within the next few months, I will find myself on one of these beaches! I will! What you think, you create; *Thinking....thinking....thinking*

POPSWinter in Siberia Photos from a trip across Siberia in January 2006, when the average temperature was -60F. Just thinking of this numbing cold makes my bones ache, but the photos are lovely. Grab a cup of your favorite warm beverage and take a look at these photos of winter in Siberia.

POPSthe top 10 least religious countries The survey concluded that "high levels of organic atheism are strongly correlated with high levels of societal health, such as low homicide rates, low poverty rates, low infant mortality rates, and low illiteracy rates, as well as high levels of educational attainment, per capita income, and gender equality. In some societies, particularly Europe, atheism is growing. However, throughout much of the world -- particularly nations with high birth rates -- atheism is barely discernable."

POPSString Theory Faster-Than-Light Drive Proposed Dreams of interstellar travel may need to be put on hold for the moment, however. Cleaver and Obousy estimate that the amount of energy needed to influence the extra dimension is equivalent to the entire mass of Jupiter being converted into pure energy for a ship measuring roughly 10 meters by 10 meters by 10 meters. "That is an enormous amount of energy," Cleaver said. "We are still a very long ways off before we could create something to harness that type of energy." But what if we could make ourselves very very small??? I am ready to squeeze myself quite a bit to get really far... :-)

POPSTime Travel in the Brain Perhaps areas that are lit up are where new pathways are being formed, and dark areas are where old pathways are 'studied' or remembered. Where, while the brain may not literally be able to 'see' the future, our choices are being refined, by the projection of possible outcomes of choices, based on past experience.

POPSFour Reasons Not to Give Up on Interstellar Travel It looks far, dark, and cold... Yet, 120 years ago, flight was science fiction as well. C. G. Jung said that all dreams of space travel are just an escape from one most difficult challenge of all, that is the journey to man's inner space. :-) ...and see my clip from last week on suggested FTL drive. It seems the motivation to escape an inner journey just grows.

POPSUnreal Landscapes of the Bolivian Salt Lake The Bolivia's Salar de Uyuni is perhaps one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world. A magnificent area with an impressive Salt Desert (the world's largest), active volcanoes, tall cacti islands and geyser flats, it exists like an alien mirage, something completely out-of-this-world...
