http://cognitivedaily.com/?p=137 Important findings: self-discipline, as rated on a number of scales, appears to be a more significant predictor of academic success than IQ, particularly for GPA (grade point average). Also, self-discipline and IQ, as measured in this study, were independent...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutronium http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Neutronium#Disputed:_Periodic_table BAH! I'm tired of this, the disputes, the misinformation, incorrect equations and terms, and I am requesting that somebody(s) from here contribute a little, so I can sleep at night...

Im in grade 11 and I need to find a interesting article that's realated to present to the class. I've tried Google News but I couldn't find anything appealing. Gah! Does anyone have any ideas of what I could present?

Science Matters by David Suzuki Science Matters is published weekly in newspapers across Canada. Consumer culture no accident Mar 07, 2003 Most people I talk to today understand that humanity is inflicting harsh damage on the planet's life support systems of clean air, water, soil and...

Why should we get sick I need help on finding resources on why getting sick is a GOOD thing. I'm sure there has to be some. I'm not meaning this like "so you can get out of school" etc. - I give thanks, :biggrin: Mk (This shy :shy: face always puzzles me to what it means until I hover it)

Any comments on this pithy article on parity: A Conserved Parity Operator Mark J. Hadley, Dept of Phys., Univ. of Warwick, Abstract:The symmetry of Nature under a Space Inversion is described by a Parity operator. Contrary to popular belief, the Parity operator is not unique. The choice...

http://www.nybooks.com/articles/18350 Freeman Dyson, reviewing a collection of Feynman's personal letters assembled and edited by Michelle, Feynman's daughter

Please let me know if this is the wrong place to post this question. I'm really fascinated by the idea of time symmetry in quantum mechanics and it's implications for the measurement process. I'm trying to make sense out of an article posted in the arXiv by Aharanov, et al. and it seems like...

Ok ok I must admit that is a bit harsh - but the following link has some seriously insane misinterpretations about the world around us. But it was hilarious reading it :rolleyes: http://www.fixedearth.com/athiest.html Oh and you got to excuse the misspelled link by the author.. just sad

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,10117,15889405-38198,00.html TOP White House adviser Karl Rove was one of the secret sources who spoke to reporters about a covert CIA operative whose identity was leaked to the media, Newsweek has reported. Mr Rove's lawyer, Robert Luskin, confirmed Mr...

Well, I've been asked by a local newspaper to write an objective article about physics/engineering in development. Pretty broad, huh? Well, I live in a small town, so there's nothing here to talk about, other than the MINOS neutrino detector in my state. But it's supposed to be more worldy, I...

So, for extra credit in my physics, i can submit 2 articles that are physics related and published within the previous three months with a page summary but i don't know what magazines i can find some. I don't think i can get them off the net so this is going to be hard because i don't have...

Interesting experiment http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science/discoveries/2005-04-19-big-bang-mystery_x.htm

one reason it's good is that it is written for the Wiley "Encyclopedia of Physics" http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0503245 Neutron Stars Gordon Baym, Frederick K. Lamb Comments: Encyclopedia of Physics 3rd ed., R.G. Lerner and G.L. Trigg, eds., Wiley-VCH, Berlin Abstract: "This short...

I saw an article in New Scientist... This is a piece from it. OUR universe appears to be unfathomably uniform. Look across space from one edge of the visible universe to the other, and you'll see that the microwave background radiation filling the cosmos is at the same temperature...

How clean, green atomic energy can stop global warming Interesting perspective on the present and future of nuclear energy in the world.

I have to write an analysis on an article (has to be scientifically published and related to chemistry or biochemistry) that is around at least 4 pages long. I've been surfing the web but i can't seem to find any. Can anyone recommend me some places where i can find them? Thanks.

In the Sept issue of Discover they had an article about Einstein. In the article they mentioned something about Special Relativity that I always suspected but had never seen in print. They basically stated that the reason a beam of light always passes you at "c" (the speed of light) no...

The proper article to use in the sentence "A/An NaI detector" I'm not sure if this is the best forum to put this in, but I'm curious, what is the proper article to use in a sentence such as "A/An NaI detector"? The source I found this from uses "An," probably because "NaI" is read letter by...

Cute ZPE artilce: http://xxx.arxiv.cornell.edu/abs/gr-qc/0209016 Its goal in life: Keep NASA funding going by suggesting that EM fields can shut down gravity.

I was reading an article regarding "morphogenic fields". http://twm.co.nz/shel_morfields.htm I am not really all that interested in the author's conclusions, rather I want to verify the experiments cited. Specifically what he claims in this excerpt: I have done a little checking and...

I have to write an article about long range artillery and the physics involved. I thought that perhaps I could tell about the coriolis effect or the perfect angle (at which the projectile covers the greatest distance). I wondered if anyone has some other interesting ideas to write about...

Just wondered if anyone read this weeks New Scientist and more to the point the article on gravity. Aparently experiments have shown that pendulums behave irratically during a solar eclipse, and hence this has lead to some scientist questioning the laws of gravity and the work of Einstien...

From the NCSE Oct 15 e-newsletter. I'm not trying to promote ID here, but it sure is refreshing to hear a voice from that arena finally say "hey, shouldn't we be using science to prove our case?"

I've had this article for quite some time, and I find it to reflect greatly on the current political situation in America. The article was written in 1938 by Garet Garrett http://www.rooseveltmyth.com/docs/The_Revolution_Was.html Take some time, read it, and let me know what you think...

That's what Wikipedia said. If, for an outside observer, it takes an infinite amount of time for matter to enter a black hole, does this mean that from the point of view of an outside observer, after a black hole has formed, no new matter will enter it?

This message is meant to start a new format of the postings on sci.physics.strings. Everyone is invited to answer the question "What was the most interesting paper on hep-th, hep-ph, or gr-qc today?" My answer for the night of April 4th is the paper by Pioline and Waldron The Automorphic...

Bell J.S. Physics. 1964,1,195. Whether is not present at somebody? Whether is it possible download it somewhere ? There is interesting to my what purpose had Bell, proving an inequality. Is it to deny a quantum mechanics? I hope, that from this article it will be possible to gather the...

Has anyone read this? Either the physicists interviewed in this article were ridiculously stupid or they're so smart that they go right over my head. People at NASA sent out some sort of probe which was just intended to go out into the uiniverse with no particular destination. It constantly...

The "Humans and Chimpanzees" PP article. I just now noticed that there's no "Physicspost.com Articles" Forum here anymore, so I don't know if there's been any discussion on this article, but I've got a couple of questions: 1) How different is the DNA of a chimp, when compared to another ape...

THE SHADOW WAR : EURO VS. DOLLAR Some Indian thinkers are interpreting the U.S.-led attack on Iraq as part of the "clash of civilisations" between the "Christian" West and the Islamic world. Such facile academic theories can mislead both the public and policy makers into thinking that the...
