Don't Seek Education, Seek Knowledge

Don't Seek Education, Seek Knowledge Many words make me cringe. “We” and “our”, when not specifically pertaining to the people you directly know or associate with on a personal level, top the list. Probably third is “education”. The word, just like so many, has been twisted, turned and co-opted over time. Just like the word “liberal” used to mean someone almost of anarchist leanings, but now signifies almost the exact opposite: a leftist statist. Or how the word “anarchism” has also been skewed through propaganda to connote the opposite of what it is. Education can mean one of many things depending on who you ...

They also claim that the recent discovery is a strange ruin as it is unlike anything found before in the United Kingdom and possibly all of Europe. "It's a real mystery. Whatever ...

Playing music while you sleep can help improve your ability to play the same tune, new Northwestern University research suggests. The research supports existing evidence that memories can be reactivated during sleep, and storage of them strengthened in the process. "Our results extend prior research by showing that external stimulation during sleep can influence a complex skill," says psychology professor Ken A Paller. Participants were taught to play two artificially generated musical tunes with well-timed key presses. Then while the participants took a 90-minute nap, the researchers presented one of the tunes that had been practised, but not the other. Using EEG to record ...

In this July 13, 2004 photo, Natalie Homza is notified by her new hearing dog Arby that her oven timer is going off during a training exercise in her Shreveport, La., home. In recent years, researchers are finding that thought processes in animals aren't a matter of how closely related they are to humans. You don't have to be a primate to be smart. … In this Dec. 13, 2006 photo provided by the Primate Research Institute of Kyoto University, a 5 1/2-year-old chimpanzee named Ayumu performs a memory test with randomly-placed consecutive Arabic numerals, which are later masked, accurately duplicating the lineup on a touch screen computer in Kyoto, Japan.

June 22, 2012 Coast Insider Audio Velikovsky & the Dogon: Making his C2C debut on Thursday's show, author/researcher Laird Scranton discussed the controversial assertions of Velikovsky, as well as the cosmology and scientific knowledge of the Dogon tribe in West Africa. According to Velikovsky, a large body smacked into Jupiter and as a result of that impact, Venus was ejected as a brilliant comet; it then impacted Mars directly, and proceeded on to have close passes with Earth, before it moved into its current orbit. This suggests that because Earth is similar to Venus, it may have been formed the same way, Scranton said. In ancient times, Venus was reportedly so bright it could ...

THE US government has given no indication it wants to extradite WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange over the release of secret diplomatic cables,Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr said. Senator Carr said he has received no hint from two discussions with American officials that they have a plan to extradite him to the US. "There is not the remotest evidence that is the case," he told ABC Television today. Mr Assange has been at Ecuador's embassy in London for nearly a week as the South American nation considers his political asylum application. The asylum bid is a last-ditch effort to avoid extradition to Sweden to face sex-crime allegations he says are baseless. The ...

Stonehenge was actually built to mark unification of Britain Washington: After 10 years of archaeological investigations, a team of researchers from different universities has concluded that Stonehenge was built as a monument to unify the peoples of Britain, after a long period of conflict and regional difference between eastern and western Britain. Its stones are thought to have symbolized the ancestors of different groups of earliest farming communities in Britain, with some stones coming from southern England and others from west Wales. The teams, from the universities of Sheffield, Manchester, Southampton, Bournemouth and University College London, all working on the Stonehenge ...

A video of schoolchildren bullying and tormenting a 68-year-old school bus monitor has caused outrage in the US. The footage, which went viral on the internet, prompted an outpouring of sympathy and fund-raising for the victim, with almost half a million dollars being raised. The ten-minute video of Karen Klein being verbally abused by children aged 13 as she accompanied them to school was posted on the internet on Monday. The children can be heard taunting the pensioner about her weight and her income and at one point discuss stabbing her. The clip, which was filmed in the town of Greece, in upstate New York, prompted widespread revulsion. Related Articles Fiona Geraghty: Internet ...

NEW DELHI - Suicide has become the second leading cause of death among the young in India, a British research has revealed. The research on suicide mortality in India, published in Britain's prestigious "The Lancet" journal on Friday, has pointed out that more than half the total suicide deaths in women and 40 percent of suicide deaths in men in this country occur between the ages of 15 and 29. "Suicide kills nearly as many Indian men aged 15-29 as transportation accidents and nearly as many young women as complications from pregnancy and childbirth," lead author Vikram Patel of London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine said.

A video of a bunch of verbally abusive middle school bullies making a 68 year old bus monitor cry has gone viral all over the Internet. This video is a perfect example of the social decay that is destroying this nation. We are raising a generation of young people that do not have respect for anyone or anything. In the video, 68 year old Karen Klein is repeatedly called poor, fat, ugly and a whole bunch of other things that I cannot repeat in this space. The bullies refer to "her sweat" and "her flab" over and over throughout the ten minute video. They call her a troll and an elephant and make numerous sexual comments about her.

ScienceDaily (June 15, 2012) — From factory workers to Wall Street bankers, a reasonable proficiency in math is a crucial requirement for most well-paying jobs in a modern economy. Yet, over the past 30 years, mathematics achievement of U.S. high school students has remained stagnant -- and significantly behind many other countries, including China, Japan, Finland, the Netherlands and Canada. A research team led by Carnegie Mellon University's Robert Siegler has identified a major source of the gap -- U. S. students' inadequate knowledge of fractions and division. Although fractions and division are taught in elementary school, even many college students have poor knowledge of ...
Home ownership belief debunked

An Australian study led by the University of Adelaide has debunked the belief that owning a home is a recipe for happiness. In a study involving more than 10,000 people over a six-year period, researchers found that while home owners are happier, wealthier and better educated than renters, home ownership in itself does not lead to improved mental health. Lead researcher Dr Emma Baker from the Centre for Housing, Urban and Regional Planning (CHURP) at the University of Adelaide says this simple finding is important. "Many studies have established major differences between home owners and renters but our findings suggest that happier and healthier people are able to afford a ...

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP) — Uruguay's national government said Wednesday it hopes to fight a growing crime problem by selling marijuana to citizens registered to buy it, and will send a bill to Congress that would make it the first country in the world to do so. Under the plan, only the government would be allowed to sell marijuana and only to adults who register on a government database, letting officials keep track of their purchases over time. Minister of Defense Eleuterio Fernandez Huidobro told reporters in Montevideo that the measure aims to weaken crime in the country by removing profits from drug dealers and diverting users from harder drugs. He said the bill would be ...

Many of us like to think of the Internet as a hub of free speech and unlimited content—an anything-goes sort of space where you can find almost any information. But plenty of us trying to look up a YouTube video of our favorite song or a sleepy cat have encountered that error message that the video has been removed or the link is no longer active. Sometimes the reason will be copyright infringement. But other times no reason is given at all. Ever wonder why? Google has the answers... In 2009, Internet giant Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) released its first biannual Transparency Report, offering information about government censorship requests and the company's rate of compliance. The ...

"There is a way of bringing up the child of a samurai. From the time of infancy one should encourage bravery and avoid trivially frightening or teasing the child. If a person is affected by cowardice as a child, it remains a lifetime scar. It is a mistake for parents to thoughtlessly make their children dread lightening, or to have them not go into dark places, or to tell them frightening things in order to stop them from crying.Furthermore, a child will become timid if he is scolded severely. " Poster Comment:Turtle's advice on raising kids.

I want to jump right back into my Items to Consider, so without further ado... 7. Know how to protect yourself. This almost certainly means owning a firearm and knowing how to use it to protect yourself or others. Many TV survival documentaries show people who feel they can defend themselves with knives or clubs, but in reality, they are going to lose 98% of the time against someone else with a firearm. Someone that has been specifically trained on how to use firearms in a defensive manner will almost always win the day in a gun battle. You can’t just own a gun; you have to know how to use it at a very high level. You also need to know how to clean your weapons and take care of ...

This song is in honor of good dad's everywhere. I had 50 good years with mine and I miss him. If yours is still around maybe today would be a good day to give him a call or take him out for lunch or dinner if he lives nearby. You don't want to be sorry you didn't make that call.
