this is how your brain works

four fascinating facts about your brain

the evolution of conciousness - Dr. Bruce Lipton

Is religion science? is the Bible a scientific text?

always interesting. the most recent discussion between Bill Nyle, representing science, and Ken Ham, representing religion. yes, again... the origin of Life, the origin of Man, evolution, etc.
can the supernatural religious point of view be considered 'science' how Ham want? must that point of view be taught in science class? - the discussion is long, but worth it. watch:

sunday space boy // niño espacial dominguero

halo, happy sunday! links. yesterday best links I twittered: spectacular art by Jeffrey C. Jones, a beautiful illustration by N.C. Wyeth for Robin Hood, 1917, an exhibit about american jews who fight in WWII, an article about the Keith Harring's exhibit opening at Brooklyn.
an article on how our brain works, Your Soul is in Your Eyes, and more science: this is about the beginning of brains in evolution,  and what means to be human - a redefinition. finally, how to be creative, can we learn that?
have a great day!

hi!

hello, guys! here I am again. first, the best of my yesterday twitters. here they go:

very nice drawn girls and advice by Jefferson Machamer. 49 interesting  facts in Picasso's life and art. an interesting article about neutrinos and how they might explain the quantum asymmetry in the Universe.

the today's wisdom sentence is: 'magic, it must be remembered, is an art which demands collaboration between the artist and his public', E.M. Butler, 1948.

hello, people. hope you're having a nice wednesday.
here are the best links I twittered yesterday:

ten ultra-weird science-fiction books that became required reading in US.
a review about information and how it doesn't apply for biosphere evolution, and finally, comics: how adventure stories about pirates, romans and aviators are still relevant.

the sentence of the day comes from George Washington, Jan. 8, 1790: "There is nothing which can better deserve our patronage than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness".

and this is not on 2012 apocalypsis nonsense, it's more serious - human extinction. and after Fukushima, what about nuclear energy?

finally, the today's sentence: 'All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike - and yet it is the most precious thing we have', Albert Einstein.
that's it. leave you with this cute girl:
