I understand... But I was just trying to discover what happens. I've heard it's something about cristalization by solvent change. But I couldn't understand it yet.

Yes, I could see that yesterday at night. I hope these problems get solved. Good Luck!

FOIS GRAS - should be served with a pipe down the throat
Ladeira replied to john5746's topic in The Lounge
I've watched a documentary about it on TV. It's a horrible cruelty definitely. I don't like FOIS GRAS and the way it's made make me really sick... I hate cruelty with animals specially when it involves human interests. It's disgusting. I can't understand where are the animal protection bodies which were supposed to eliminate this type of routine. -
We've made an experiment which can be described like this: In an Erlenmeyer was put around 1.0 gram of Magnesium (Mg) and added 15.0 mL of a solution 3 mol/L of Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4). Mg + H2SO4 --> MgSO4 + H2 Then, was added Ethilic Alcohol. What happens? Is there some phenomenon? The theoric note notices that it's supposed to occur something. But it doesn't notices what.

Schizophrenia/Science fair help
Ladeira replied to brainstem's topic in Anatomy, Physiology and Neuroscience
it's pretty interesting. I was thinking of a correlaction between Schizophrenia and Parkinson's Disease... since you're looking forward a connection between dopamine and schizophrenia. I thought this article might be quite good for a first research: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9849144 it's just the review if you can find the full text... but I guess it's exactly what you're looking for. -
I also love language... I'm fascinated for English language, next year I'll receive the certificate of 'learned English' haha. I'm thinking of preparing myself to the TOEFL exam. It's going to be useful for me. The next step will be French, Italian or German.

I think the main question is: how do people find time to spread these videos on science forums? o// I've found it! I was quite tired of studying.
-
just like a strange game addicted nerd. funny haha
-
I've found a video on youtube! I guess you all will like it! Check it out.
-
I thought it just like unbelieveable! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I guess the microbiological movement can be seen.! I liked it.

I haven't introduced myself yet. Sorry. My name is Antonio Ladeira, I'm Brazilian, 15 y.o., I'm Catholic, I believe in miracles and I don't think it's a reason to be against science. Science facinates me. Can't God be a scientist? By the way, I live in Rio, I'm in a Chemistry Technician school and I love neuroscience. I joined in this forum for discussing science, music (if you like ), and to have some fun with my free time. ;D Thanks, Antonio.

Miguel Nicolelis is a good inspiration. I have read some reports about him. He is really trying to change the way things work in Brazil, specially about research centers, he created a neuroscience research center in Natal (a Brazilian city). He is making a connection between BR and US, and his ideas are incredible, he is absolutely innovating neuroscience area. I hope the president agree and things work well.
-
By the way, i'd like to know how are the research centers in other contries... Have you all a good view about BR? It has bad bad problems, but it's a good country and the nature here is beautiful

Any way to induce hallucination without drugs?
Ladeira replied to hw help's topic in Psychiatry and Psychology
Yes, there's a possibility: There's a free software which offers 'song doses' that makes people feel like who used drugs (including illegal ones). I guess it's a cool stuff... they say it's something like brain waves and things like that. The official website is :: http://www.i-doser.com Good Luck! -
I'm glad I have internet hahaha never liked to face people (not that I don't do it often). I was a nerd smart baby, but it changed, I'm not smart anymore .o.

that's it! it happens in Brazil, there are lots of good companies (which use a selection proccess based on tests and where the professional will never have contact with EN speaker... sometimes, in written, but there are translators) that have an English Language Exam... and it's often an elimination round, it happens more frequently in Major degrees (no English no Major); And then it reminds me of poor Einstein who flunked lots of times in Idioms hahaha And the worst is that in government research center and schools, Major and Graduate Degrees means a BIG raise in the salary, and as people are not so nice as we'd want them to be, in those researchs, they usually block the opportunities of each other to get a degree...
-
I feel embarrassed Here in Brazil, the research centers are some hypocritical and there's no financial support from the government... brazilian government is such ridiculous. And the professionals are valued by diplomas, certificates and degrees... I mean, an undergraduate and graduate degrees are good points.. but if someone is a great professional, does he really need to speak English perfectly to get a Master's degree if he's taking it in Brazil? And people with no Master's Degree (in Brazil) has no chance to make a research or have own work really valued. Muito obrigado, or muy gracias! Thanks, Antonio.

I got 5!!! I feel as a jerk... I'm not familiarized with English language as you all... and for me is really harder to guess the letters .o. hahaha Hope I do better next
-
However your country speaks English ;D it's still US. Seymour is in Texas or Tennessee?
-
Hey... Is there someone who lives in any country which does not speak English? I'm thinking of applying for a scholarship in U.S. or UK. I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil o/\o I'm wanting to be an undergraduate student in some good university abroad to expand my knowledge and life experience

Since one y.o., I play games which I dont know if can be called "violent"... does someone know the old "Blake Stone"??? That was what I had played when I was (almost a baby) 1 y.o.... My parents were really embarrassed about me because I was like a 'computer baby', I was like an autist in front of the monitor.. someone who knew some DOS commands before talking. The result was that with 1 y.o. and six months I formatted my dad's PC.
