Doing The Math On Guns

My sincerest thoughts are with the family and friends of the victims of the Aurora massacre, as they are with all innocent victims of gun violence in America. One of my least favorite aspects of tragedies like this, which happen rarely but still far too often, are the emotional and uninformed salvos on gun rights that it seems every Tom, Dick and Bloomberg feel compelled to share. Instead of it being a remembrance of the victims' lives, the “you’re coming for my guns,” “no I’m not” back-and-forth ends up monopolizing the public discourse about the event. The shooter was a deranged neuroscientist who nearly blew up his neighborhood with homemade ...
Making "Captured Lightning" (Multi-million volt Lichtenberg Figures)

Uploaded on Oct 6, 2009 This video describes how we create "Captured Lightning" (Lichtenberg Figure) sculptures. It was assembled from video clips that were captured over several years of production. In order to make Captured Lightning, our team of experienced "Spark Whisperers" uses a 5 million electron volt (MeV) particle accelerator to inject hundreds of trillions of electrons deep inside pieces of clear plastic (polymethylmethacrylate, or PMMA). The electrons come to rest about 1/4" to 1/2" below the irradiated surface, forming a cloud-like layer of negative charge, called a space charge. Since PMMA is an excellent electrical insulator, the intensely ...

Who really killed the Connecticut children?

Who really killed the Connecticut children? by Kevin Barrett When something unbelievably evil happens in one of our schools, like the recent murder of 27 children and teachers at the Newtown School in Connecticut, the media always tells us the same thing: blame the lone nut(s). But history suggests that many if not most schoolyard massacres, like other large-scale acts of domestic terrorism, have a much more sinister agenda. Sheriff Pat Sullivan, who ran the Columbine investigation, was arrested last year and convicted of coercing sexual favors from a child in exchange for methamphetamine. His ridiculously short sentence, served in the jail that bears his name, amounted to a slap on ...

Shakespeare's Sonnet #29 When, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes, I all alone beweep my outcast state And trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries And look upon myself and curse my fate, Wishing me like to one more rich in hope, Featured like him, like him with friends possess'd, Desiring this man's art and that man's scope, With what I most enjoy contented least; Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising, Haply I think on thee, and then my state, Like to the lark at break of day arising From sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate; For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings That then I scorn to change my state with kings.

Title: Scene from the Apocalypse, Date: circa 1829, Medium: oil on canvas, Artist: Francis Danby (1793-1861) Ahead of December 21, which marks the conclusion of the 5,125-year “Long Count” Mayan calendar, panic buying of candles and essentials has been reported in China and Russia, along with an explosion in sales of survival shelters in America. In France believers were preparing to converge on a mountain where they believe aliens will rescue them. The precise manner of Armageddon remains vague, ranging from a catastrophic celestial collision between Earth and the mythical planet Nibiru, also known as Planet X, a disastrous crash with a comet, or the annihilation of civilisation ...

Bigfoot DNA Tests Prove Hairy Creature Exists, Genetic Researcher Says [Full Thread]

Bigfoot DNA Tests Prove Hairy Creature Exists, Genetic Researcher Says Lee Speigel lee.speigel@huffingtonpost.com Bigfoot is real. At least that's what veterinarian Melba S. Ketchum claims after a five-year study of more than 100 DNA samples that she believes comes from the elusive hairy beast. Under Ketchum's direction at DNA Diagnostics in Nacogdoches, Texas, a team of researchers has concluded that the creature may be a human relative that somehow developed around 15,000 years ago as a result of a hybrid cross between Homo sapiens with an unknown primate. Ketchum's research has yet to stand the scrutiny of independent researchers. While many people have claimed to have ...

NH: During a presentation to Manchester's government-school board, principal Lizabeth MacDonald provides backhanded confirmation of libertarian allegations. Freedom folk say public schools are wasteful, unsafe and incompetent. Here are some excerpts from this "educational leader's" laundry list of simple things her school has failed to do for kids. Even though the district receives ten THOUSAND dollars of your money, per student per year. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReKpJjlZc7g
