Is the Web making young people vote?
Victoria Barret
by Victoria Barret  Today 12:50 AM   
 Youth voter turnout has increased in recent elections, including this year's primaries. I believe the Web has made it easier and more interesting to be politically engaged -- and young people are connecting online.

Instant approval payday loans: Instant solution for urgent requirements
ameliadixon
by ameliadixon  Yesterday 6:12 AM   
 No matter how severe your economic crisis is, no lender will compromise with his approval procedure and duration. Until or unless complete assurance has been provided regarding collateral, identification and repayment ability of the borrower, the lender will not allow the borrower to have the monetary assistance. For this reason only, many borrowers have succumbed to financial crises because they failed to obtain a decent loan help in the available duration. However by now, thankfully the financial experts have termed this issue as an incompetent behavior of the finance market and rectified it to a certain extent with the solution of instant approval payday loans. With this loan scheme, the borrowers can have the possibility of acquiring good amount of cash within the short duration of 24 hours.

Beating a Dead Horse
cmstratton
by cmstratton  7-23-2008   
 I've commented on this topic many times over the past months, so why not give it one more go. There are two groups responsible for the mortgage mess - the individuals who took out exotic mortgages on houses they couldn't afford, and the financial institutions who sold them those mortgages. I understand we can't let the system fail, but I see no reason why my tax dollars have to go towards helping bail these two groups out. They made terrible decisions. All a bill like this does is reinforce stupid behavior, because if we fail, the government will bail us out. If you had your home re-possessed, it's because you couldn't afford it in the first place. If a financial institution is going down because of all the write-downs they've had to take on bad mortgages, it's because their leadership authorized bad decisions. Are there some exceptions to the above - sure there are. But those aren't the situations that this bill is addressing.

Our Culture Of Debt
debbyski
by debbyski  7-22-2008    2
 "We absorb a way of perceiving the world from parents and neighbors. We mimic the behavior around us. Only at the end of the process is there self-conscious oversight. America once had a culture of thrift. But over the past decades, that unspoken code has been silently eroded."

Converting DNA Structures into Music
rj3sp
by rj3sp  7-21-2008    1
 Highly complex DNA structures can be tranformed into musical sounds, which might eventually be used to monitor sick patients. In the acoustic translation, harmony represents good health, and discord indicates disease. Finally auditory information will allow surgeons, anesthesiologists, and other physicians to be able to focus on their task and listen at the same time.

 Halting the destruction of the environment for the sake of future generations takes peering into the future so that we are able to truly perceive the impact of our actions. In that respect, leadership can be a powerful force to direct the behavior of nations toward the accomplishment of some common environmental objectives.

How a simple mathematic formula is starting to explain the bizarre prevalence of altruism in society
Silkweaver
by Silkweaver  7-18-2008    1
 This new mathematic model for society’s evolution is particularly interesting because not only it reveals a logic behind the large numbers of cooperators that we know exist in all human societies, but also it gives us a glimpse of the principles that can help “pushing” them into a better, fairer, path. Evolutionary game theory is a mathematical approach used to study (and predict) the evolution of social interactions, in which the study of conflict and decision-making is treated – like its name indicates – as a game.

The Earth's 6th Great Mass Extinction is Occurring as You Read This
papananook
by papananook  7-18-2008    1
 With the human population expected to reach 9-10 billion by the end of the century and the planet in the middle of its sixth mass extinction — this time due to human activity — the next few years are critical in conserving Earth’s precious biodiversity. The cause of the Sixth Extinction, Homo sapiens, means we can continue on the path to our own extinction, or, preferably, we modify our behavior toward the global ecosystem of which we are still very much a part. At a casual glance, the physically caused extinction events of the past might seem to have little or nothing to tell us about the current Sixth Extinction, which is a human-caused event. For there is little doubt that humans are the direct cause of ecosystem stress and species destruction in the modern world through transformation of the landscape, overexploitation of species, pollution, and the introduction of alien species

Future Human: The Evolution of Immediate Emotion

 Humans, apparently, are still in the early stages of evolving extended response mechanisms. But it seems likely that by the time we portion more of our brain to long-term dangers, there will be few grizzly bears around to worry about, and a whole lotta global warming.

July 18 - Full Moon

 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_moon July Hay Moon Buck Moon Thunder Moon, Mead Moon Guru Poornima Folklore ======= Full Moons are traditionally associated with temporal insomnia, insanity (hence the terms lunacy and lunatic) and various "magical phenomena" such as lycanthropy. Psychologists, however, have found that there is no strong evidence for effects on human behavior around the time of a full moon. They find that studies are generally not consistent, with some showing a positive effect and others showing a negative effect. In one instance, the December 23, 2000 issue of the British Medical Journal published two studies on dog bite admission to hospitals in England and Australia. The study of the Bradford Royal Infirmary found that dog bites were twice as common during a full moon, whereas the study conducted by the public hospitals in Australia found that they were less likely. Many neopagans hold a monthly ritual called an Esbat at each full moon, while so
