    The Obesity Epidemic: What Can Be Done to Stop It?

    Oh believe you me, food companies are not out to get any one. They couldn't care if anyone lives or dies. They want your money, at the least cost to them. For most Americans it goes like this. Mom, Dad and the kids get up to go to school and work. Who is the one that's going to feed them...

    The Obesity Epidemic: What Can Be Done to Stop It?

    A mix of animals is not bad other then the fact that when you eat a hamburger you are eating everything from cow toe jam to ear gunk, meaning that your probably not getting the best cut of meat in your hamburger. But it's the processed fat that the human body can't readily use that is causing...

    The Obesity Epidemic: What Can Be Done to Stop It?

    Today's obesity problem is caused by the processed fat that is used in hamburger. Years ago one would take a chunk of meat and put it through a meat grinder to make hamburger. Huge corporate has taken over the meat industry and the restaurant business i.e. Mac, jack, etc. This is what's...

    What was the big red ball in the sky?

    It was a flash of red light. It was circular. I would say about two to three seconds. Way too big to be an abject. It didn't move. I would say it took up a quarter of the sky. I have checked the Internet for years now looking for something that looked like it to no avail. Ball lightning and...

    What was the big red ball in the sky?

    When I was very young I got up out of bed, in the middle of the night, and looked out the window and saw this big bright red ball of light in the sky. I'm 58 now so it is very hard to remember but I have never seen it again and I have never found anything reported that looked like it. It flashed...

    Oh my God is the Catholic Church right?

    Thanks JesseM, That's what I was looking for. I'm trying to develop a correct concept of empty space, SR, and time. Then I'll work in gravity. They call gravity a weak force, not if you go back to the point just before the big bang, I'm thinking gravity was an overwhelming force at that point...

    Thanks ZapperZ That explains a lot, thanks. So it doesn't matter who is actually doing the moving, it's all has to do with the relative position and velocity of the observer to the observed.

    Oh my God is the Catholic Church right?

    Thanks A.T. I guess the Church is still wrong. The effects of angular momentum are hard to ignore. I'm just having a hard time understanding SR when it comes to velocity, time and space. Example, I'm sitting on Earth and you buzz by me at the close to the speed of light, who's to say...

    Oh my God is the Catholic Church right?

    You and I are moving away from each other at close to the speed of light, can it be determined who is doing the moving in empty space? And will SR know which clock to slow or speed up?

    Oh my God is the Catholic Church right?

    Wow, I've got to be a bit more focused. You guys are great, thanks for your replies. Let me rewrite my question. If there is no absolute rest point to use as a reference, how can it be determined who is moving faster or slower, or for that matter, if something is at rest. Could the Earth...

    Oh my God is the Catholic Church right?

    Let me know if I've got this right. If there is no absolute rest and everything is relative then everything is moving and we are stopped. The universe does revolve around us. The observer is the "man, dog, king pin" and in this case we earthlings are standing still and everything revolves...
