POPSBorderlands Sciences Research Foundation
Alternative Science has been known under many titles for thousands of years. It has always been an alternative science because it requires the investigator to go outside of their normal perceptions. Shamans and healers of all ages share a common heritage with the Alternative Scientist. A world of patterns, geometry and subtle radiation are operative to both. Alternative science struggles with language to describe the experience of subtle energy. Teaching how to manipulate this subtle energy has always been a challenge. Borderland Sciences preserves this collection so you can aquire your own education.MORE! 20th Century Collection These research texts provide a look into the early resarch of subtle energy by qualified scienctist before teh materialistic paradigm squeezed vitalism out of the picture.many of these texts hold secrets and models of the physical universe that were classified when they were completely worked out by academic engineers. Drink from the Source.

This is technically Part III of the Forensics article I posted yesterday and I hope to receive some feedback. Thank you.

POPSJohann Hari: Science is thrilling – except in our schools At Primary School level, often teachers teach little science as this is often hands on, and they keep the messy lesson for art. Also, some teachers at this level just are not science people, forcing themselves to be proficient at maths in stead. I pushed early on for teachers to move from class to class teaching from their area of expertise. Attitudes became more positive.

POPSDump this blowhard This toon would be funny, except the empty suit Obama would not have the courage to strap on a jet aircraft. And Clark the war hero who criticizes McCain? This blowhard was a '66 grad of West Point. In the middle of a war, does he get out to the front as do his classmates? Hell no. He trots over to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar for two years while his classmates are fighting and dying. He finally makes it over to 'Nam in '70 where he is a general's aide for 6 months, and finally commands a company for less than 1 month in combat where he is shot four times by a VC and evacuated to the U.S. where, after he recuperates from minor flesh wounds, takes up a teaching post back at West Point. And he criticizes John McCain! Birds of a feather fly together... and so do empty suits.

POPSStatistics and the Dancing Cockatoo "On each trial he actually dances at a range of tempos," says Patel. But in each case the slower end of Snowball's range seemed to correlate with the tempo of the music. "When the music tempo was slow, his tempo range included slow dancing. When the music was fast, his tempo range didn’t include these slower tempos," Patel explains. A statistical check on these variations showed that the correlation between the music’s rhythm and Snowball’s slower movements was very unlikely to have happened by chance. "To us, this shows that he really does have tempo sensitivity, and is not just ‘doing his own thing’ at some preferred tempo," says Patel. Via Andrew Sullivan
