  1. Not true you cannot be atheist and get in government no one will vote for you .Look at the abortion and separation of church and state debate !! The teaching of god in school and prayer in school.Also gays and lesbians and the evolution debate in schools.The nedia use of god we trust and other quotes so on and so on like god bless America It like that in Canada and the US.No Christians are not happy to leave it at home and the church. They are the fundamentalists not the 90% of Muslim . What I'm saying is all religion is like that and clash with separation of church and state .You seem to paint that Christians are the only people that do not clash and this is not true.
  2. I have been having discusses about different propulsion system looking for ways to bring the space cost down. And after looking at the different propulsion system it seems chemical propulsion is the only option --- Anti-matter ( very very very costly (way more than chemical propulsion) cannot be controlled or stored has fuel. Also hard to make you have smash atoms and it only last for second or so the anti-matter If there was breakthrough where we can make lots and lots of anti-matter very cheap and can control it and store it and use it has fuel it be banned for use in , earth thus only used for deep space has a size of rock would destroy all of New York. It would be banned in earth and close to earth. ---Ion propulsion or plasma propulsion does not have the thrust to lift any thing to space ( must be used for deep space only) ----microwave propulsion very bad on the person health. I would think this is banned for use too . ---fusion propulsion no point talking about this to we get working fusion but you need big core and would have to be very big so payload may be a problem. ---fission not sure have not read much on it. But I would think the core and shielding would make it very big and space would be tight so payload would be a problem more so than chemical propulsion . --Laser propulsion there is different types of Laser propulsion . one type people at the ground shine a laser beam to the craft to get it to go up , other type the craft shines a laser beam that heats up the air and the craft goes up. The last type is pulse laser the craft rides on pulse of the laser going on and off very fast. From what I read there is some problems with laser propulsion you need gigawatt power well find for the ground if (ground shine a laser beam to the craft but the other propulsion the craft in the air shines a laser beem you need flying power station if the craft in the air shines a laser beam that heats up the air so it goes up. Also it could be very costly and also 300 feet is the highest we got a craft to go up than came down so it is along ways off to getting into space. --- space elevator I don't see this happing if the cable snap it would cut any thing in path around the earth. ---Ion lifers work by having 2 electrodes one at the top and one at the bottom .There is high voltage at the top electrode that ionizes the air and the ions are strongly attracted to the downwards electrode , the ions rushing downwards impinges on air molecules causes upward force . Problem is no one has done experiments on Ion lifers ---chemical propulsion not sure but may be they can improved it What are the pros and cons ? And problems they have to overcome to the above propulsion system. In the end it looks like the space program is doomed, seriously the space program is seriously flawed only 3 countries can put people into space it cost money like a leaking faucet and we are hardly done any think in past 20 years of the space program other than build the ISS !!!! And what go up into space every month or two !!! If the space program is going to have any chance of getting any where you have to go up in space 2 or 3 times a month and quadruple the space program or even more than what we have now. I'm not saying bring the cost down for $2,000 per person or taking up 40 people at time has this is pure scfi talking and we are billion and billion of light years from that level of technology if at all . But if the cost came down by 50% less yes just 50% less to get into space now , and 5 or 8 countries can put people into space and the private sector can pull it of and profit that this is worth having a major party. Has of now it is a joke only 3 countries can put people into space and most of the time do not even have monthly launches. It cost like a leaking faucet. And it does not look like any of the propulsion is going work and shine light at the end of the tunnel . It does not look like there is any propulsion system out there that will work other than chemical propulsion but is very very very costly and limited by a payload problem. I was hoping of the above propulsion system talk about here that fusion, fission propulsion or laser propulsion may be the answer to the problem in 50 or 100 years from now. What is your thought? And pros and cons on the propulsion system.
  3. When computers get faster and better than virtual reality will go from scfi to reality.
  4. Eye-Popping Microscope Images ( 10 photos 1 of 10) http://news.yahoo.com/nphotos/Eye-Popping-Microscope-Images/ss/events/sc/111810bioscapesimage#photoViewer=/ydownload/20101118/photos_net_web_sc/1290096617 ( 4 of 10) http://news.yahoo.com/nphotos/Eye-Popping-Microscope-Images/ss/events/sc/111810bioscapesimage#photoViewer=/ydownload/20101118/photos_net_web_sc/1290096675 Note is this new technology that shows more detail than ever before ? Even parts of cells ? If so than do you think one day we can look at energy or each photon of light?
  5. I was diging around the net and found this on tinnitus and Hearing loss ==== I noticed my tinnitus getting worse and was concerned. My tinnitus, or commonly referred to as a ringing or buzzing sound in the ear, I found was a symptom that could be related to almost every known hearing problem. Tinnitus is a condition and not a disease, and is a result of exposure to loud sounds, middle or ear infections, tumors on the hearing nerve, and even wax on the eardrum. Getting rid of tinnitus can be difficult if you don't identify the root cause. Read more http://www.squidoo.com/Tinnitus-Getting-Worse === Hearing loss is not normal or common. According to US government statistics from the 60's (National Center for Health Statistics), only 8% of the entire US population has any difficulty with hearing at all. Furthermore, only 3% of the population had difficulty hearing anything other than faint speech. Thus, having problems hearing is not something that "everyone has". Rather, it is a significant sensory loss. Severe hearing loss is not nearly as common in young people. Unilateral hearing loss is estimated to have a prevalence ranging between 0.1 and 5% in school aged children (Barsky-Firsker and Sun, 1997; Niskar et al, 1998). In US data between 1988 and 2006, mild or worse unilateral hearing loss (25 db or worse), is reported in 1.8% of adolescents. Mild or worse bilateral loss, in 0.8%. (Shargorodsky et al, 2010). On the other hand, there is an epidemic of hearing loss in older people. Between 25 and 40% of the population aged 60 and older is hearing impaired. Not only is hearing loss more common in older persons, hearing loss is also increasing with time (Yueh et al, 2003). As the population ages, the population's hearing is certain to worsen.

  6. What ? ultrasound to cure cancer . They use ,radiation therapy ,chemotherapy ,targeted therapies ,immunotherapy .hormonal therapy ,angiogenesis inhibitors and the experimental cancer treatment using radio waves to heat up tiny metals which are implanted in cancerous tissue also have heating, induction heating, magnetic hyperthermia or direct application of heat Check this http://www.scienceforums.net/topic/50974-no-one-knows-hows-how-to-fight-cancer-or-why-people-get-cancer/page__p__556962__fromsearch__1#entry556962 Why it is hard to cure cancer.
  7. My understanding the left will attack religious right has they are anti-religious and fear the growth of it.So will fight Sharia law if it going to teach god in school and have church and state all one. Not sure , I thought it was Islam saying the west is evile and having hard time to live in state that is secular. Not sure what you mean but not all think the US is evile and secular law has to go.It sort of Islamophobia to say all think the US is evile and secular law has to go. My view is the problem is some Muslims view secular has evile and thus want a community or court that is not secular but church and state all one.Well such laws women will not be allowed to work and have to be covered from head to toe among no drinking and porn illegal.. It is the left who are trying to do that. It is the left who want a secular-progressive very ver very bad has they are anti-religious and will attack religious right .
  8. lemur It has been said over and over multicultural has been making segregation areas look at any cities in Canada or the US white area, black area ,Cuban area , Italian area ,Mexican area ,Chinese area ,philapinenos area ,Russan area so on. My take on it is simple we Americans move to Mexico we cannot read,write ,speak or understand language at all and very hard to get a job and get education not say very much so a culture shock so whe feel more at home if we find a community in Mexico with Americans and even find Americans who better at the language and more established to help us. If we are in 20's or 30's when we get in are 50's or 60's we are more likely to learn the language by that time.The kids we have are more Mexican and better at than us. Not only has multicultural made segregation areas but breaks down by the second or third generation of kids.Back in time alot of Europeans came to the US and Canada but English and western culture taken over by the second or third generation of kids. Well Spanish is growing has language because it is third or so most spoken language in the world.It is very hard to get any where in life with out English in Canada and US and Spanish will be next with NAFTA ,big businesses in Central or South America and Spanish people moving to the US. What is happing is government is bringing people into the country and allowing them to fight for them self than the government helping them get a job ,free education and free ESL and this making problems.And English is hard to learn than like other language in the world.The fact people can read and write amazes me that people can do that.
  9. Is that what they want a isolated community or Islamic court? Why is Sharai Law less in direct conflict ? What is causing this movement ? Are Western Islamic struggling with a moderate Western way of life . What groups of same issue? The religious nature in the US and Canada is very complex has it is saying you can believe in any religione.So religious law would conflit if you have other belief system.That say you 14 or 22 years old in religious community and your parents and family are very religious you not or believe in other religione would the Amendment of the constitution be in conflit . Even the first Amendment of the constitution would be in conflit ? The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights. The amendment prohibits the making of any law "respecting an establishment of religion", impeding the free exercise of religion, infringing on the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment has been interpreted by the Supreme Court as erecting a separation of church and state.[1] Originally, the First Amendment only applied to laws enacted by the Congress. However, starting with Gitlow v. New York, 268 U.S. 652 (1925), the Supreme Court held that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment applies the First Amendment to each state, including any local government. Read more http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution So is it time for the constitution to be change to make easer? It's worth noting that (allegedly) Scientology supports the harassment, My view is law on the freedom of speech makes it illegal for the state to do any thing.In such way in courts Scientology would say this is freedom of speech . That is the confict of seporation of curch and state law and religious law .And every group that wants own law . But the problem is these people do not want to live in seporation of church and state law but under a religious law .Look at the gays, lesbians, abortion and sex and there is major conflit here.They view seporation of church and state is very evile . And still have killings over gays, lesbians and abortion .Even the Islamic leaders are in confict with other Islamic leaders if women is person and if should be coverd or not .There are Islamic sects that say a women is not person but low life .Such Islamic confict with other Islamic confict . Even if some Muslims make legal protests and try to challenge the laws it will not matter. They can want their own laws all they want - hell, David Koresh wanted his own army - but it's not going to go anywhere. Legal precedent is far too established and no matter how many fringers (and no matter what religion those fringers adhere to) no religious group will be above the law in this country. Wanting own community is different than own court.If non Muslims goes into a Muslims community they must do want the community is saying is right or wrong/
  10. I don't understand I thought they wanted their own law and courts?So if you believe in their god you go to theire court? Was there not same thing in UK where they wanted their own laws and court? I'm sure people who do not believe in their god would go to their court. I'm sure they are not making Canada a Islamic state nor did the UK did they want a Islamic state. The US does not live under a Islamic state so has power to do any thing they like .Do you even know some of the scanners show such detail that you nude on the screan and for even non-Muslim this will be a big problem.
  11. How do you overcome fear doctors.Not only should I see the doctor for my eye problems but my tinnitus too..Well it has also been 20 years for check up from head to toe.Alot can change in 20 years and with bad foods and a sedentary lifestyle does not help. I think my fear of doctors is moving me to alternative medicine.
  12. Yap probably there are great minds but the media does not talk about it like the great minds of science and inventors .Give news ,media or TV shows a choice on biology/medical or mega world,theoretical physics or inventions you know what will make air time. Just look at the shows on TLC,discovery, discovery science so on. Also I think what the problem is with medine is there is massive about of information out there how the human body works but very little understanding on the healing, cause and effect and aging.Put it this way doctors know how you body works very well and can diagnose the problem.But know very little on the aging and healing process.Has for cause and effect on diseases and illnesses this still in its infancy. When science get information on this than we probably be closer to star trek medine and most all diseases and illnesses will have cure.It kinda hard to come up with cure when you don't fully understand the healing, cause and effect and aging. And despite all medical books on cells and stem cells they are not even scratching the surface. On the news on how they got skin cells to turn into blood cells and just on the news yesterday turning fat cells into heart cells. With all this happing well time to rewrite the medical books Not to say of some small cases now and than on TLC,discovery, discovery science of a person cannot walk ,use his had or feet and over time the body repairs the damage or makes no pathways. I'm not bashing medical science but my view is medicine and rocket science is billions of light years away of star trek level.But all other science well is showing much more progress towards star trek level. May be in 50 or 100 years they will fully understand aging and healing process.May be in 100 or 150 years organs grown in labs or artificial organs will be the norm.May be in 150 or 200 years 80% of all cancer types will have cure along with diabetes. Has for rocket science it looks very bad well medical science much more progress . Also when computers more powerful where virtual reality can be used medical science will take off like lighting speed.
  13. OTTAWA - Islamists aim to build a "parallel society" in Canada that risks undermining its democracy and multiculturalism and becoming a "catalyst for violence," warned a national security report published Monday. The newly declassified document obtained by the National Post says Islamic hardliners are calling on Muslims living in Western countries to segregate themselves and adhere only to Shariah law. Read more: http://www.montrealgazette.com/life/Muslim+parallel+society+within+Canada+threat+Report/3831385/story.html#ixzz15O8ZHEzv Note I have no idea that is going on in Canada.
  14. May be the media has clouded my perception has physics and theoretical physics seem get on shows like TLC ,discovery the news so on . Every one knows of Nikola Tesla ,Stephen Hawking .Bamin Franklin,Michael Faraday, Thomas Edison ,Alessandro Volta,Guglielmo Marconi ,Alexander Graham Bell,Isaac Newton,Leonardo da Vinci ,Galileo and Albert Einstein. And today the media all talk on Albert Einstein,Stephen Hawking and Michio Kaku !! And I most say Leonardo da Vinci and Nikola Tesla where more advance for the time they where in almost if they where time travels!!. All the above great minds of science and inventors where are the biology/medical great minds that have just a impact like the above .
  15. An NDP health critic has found data from B.C.s Ministry of Health that reveals a rising trend where homeless patients who no longer require acute care remain in those beds, reports the CBC. Read more: http://news.nationalpost.com/2010/11/15/b-c-hospitals-use-beds-to-house-homeless-says-ndp-healh-critic/#ixzz15Ncjp2Vn Canada had about 68,000 physicians working last year, following the biggest annual increase in medical doctors in 20 years, according to a new report. The Canadian Institute for Health Information released its annual report on the supply and payment of doctors on Thursday. In 2009, about 68,100 physicians were working in Canada, an increase of almost 2,700 over the previous year — more than triple the rate of growth of the Canadian population as a whole, the report's authors found, and the highest growth rate in two decades.

  16. The video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXHlNyEtnAo&feature=related It does horrible job explaining nature of time of past has the video gets into time trevel.
  17. Do not read the name Parallel Universes the video is not about it at all.It is video abou what made the bing bang and gets into deaper on the what happen before and what cause it. It gets into the Universe it struture it has very little to do with Parallel Universes .Who ever give the video its name is wrong.
  18. I'm just so scared this is happing so fast in past 5 years.All I know is it is fact if there is alot of eye flaoters or bright flashes it is medical emergency has this could be retinal detachment or blood vessel rupture in eye .I know I read enough on medical books... Only doctor looking at my eye using tools can find out what is wrong.Going by the symptom is not confirmation and hard to do .I could have high blood prussure or high blood sugar pre-diabetic. The internet is bad place to get information so are medical books do to there are no test to confirm if true or not.Even doctors do not know what is wrong to they do test to confirm has all they know it could be this or that . But do to I'm not getting bright flashes or the eye flaoters getting worse every day it well probably not retinal detachment or blood vessel rupture but still I should see a dotor has I do not know if this or that or what the problem is. I eat bad foods and have a sedentary lifestyle so I'm high risk for high blood prussure or high blood sugar pre-diabetic.This why I should see doctor for that alone. That me tell you a secret I have phobia of doctors and little faith in medicine other than alternative medicine little faith in medicine other than alternative medicine. I have seen so many people in are family that are sick, read horror stories about ER and people going to doctor, been around so many people that have lost faith in medicine and gone back to alternative medicine . I have family doctor that just wants get rich.Really I would love to get into alternative medicine .At one time I wanted to have job some thing to so with medicine but I think alternative medicine can do more now.
  19. Yap that is it.. Not sure why I get that. Should I be scared? I'm mean getting eye floaters , eye sight changes ,tinnitus that gets worse at night and now visual Snow ? I know they say when people get bad floaters and lots of visual Snow it could be retinal detachment or blood vessel rupture in eye . I was also reading that people who have diabetes may effect the eye and circulation. I never had any of these problems 5 years ago. I use to have lots of nice hair now my hair is so thin and lack of hair.What is going on.
  20. The Universe as a Hologram by Michael Talbot I found this today sounds interesting.I was doing a google search for some thing and found this.
  21. I think the quetion is if you have stomach cancer how does it spread to the liver and when you get liver cancer is it liver cancer or stomach cancer that spread to the liver. The post was hard to read.I thought it was stomach cancer spreading to the liver thus stomach cancer in the liver.
  22. Yes the less you drink the more the urine is concentrated that is why urine is dark yellow if you only drank 4 glass of water in 15 hours and the urine more white if you drank 9 glasses of water in 12 hours. Most people say you should drink about 10 to 12 glasses in day.
  23. What grade ? Grade 11,12, first year med scool or entry level into nursing ??
  24. When I get up in the morning and it is very very bright out side I'm seeing dancing stars/ sparkly dots.I did a google search and was saying if there is bright flashes of light it may be retinal detachment. No they are not eye floaters they are dancing stars/ sparkly dots it is hard to explain.I'm farsighted in one eye and nearsighted in other eye and can only see it well if it is very very bright. What can cause this or one eye farsighted in one eye and nearsighted in other eye ? I also have tinnitus it gets worse at night.
  25. Why is it taboo to do research into these things? Well more people get into physics and theoretical physics than medical or biological researcher .Also physics and theoretical physics get more money.
