Billy-T, I wonder why you are surprised at American ignorance in this matter. I have not ever heard any proposal for importing ethanol, ever. It doesn't seem like something that should have been...

IQ tests definitely do not measure long term things, like strategy. Creativity is often long term as well (like epiphanies... you don't just start concentrating and have them at will).

Tesla motors has an electric sports car on the market. One cent per mile, 0-60 in 4s, 250 mile per charge... about 100,000$ cost. They are planning to make a regular family four door vehicle in the...

Is that what you call getting murdered while doing humanitarian work? That is scary.

Perhaps if physics one day limits space travel to small vessels only feasible for midgets, and of course, space travel becomes possible.

If you remember back to 2004 when "e-voting" machines made by Diebold, who were actually quoted as proming to deliver votes to Bush, had their voting machines widely used, especially in crucial...

There is one common denominator... if anyone, no matter what there issues, creates a mild caloric deficit each day, there is no other option but weight loss. And making a mild caloric deficit is not...

Can you explain about nervous tension please?

I can think of a POV where being fat is mostly not your fault, in America anyway. I spent 3.5 years living in Singapore where I had to struggle KEEP my weight up. I played sports and did weight...

I assume you minimized your error, because on a average household scale, that is a within it's margin of error.

If you have a caloric deficit of more than 500 per day (for most people) your body...

I don't know the reference at all, but ROFL. :p

I read that the tests have been adapted to score HARDER in modern times, and that people going under old tests/scales would score genius if they are average by todays standards.

Without even worrying about the merits of IQ tests, I am 99% sure this is total BS.

The scale has been adapted to modern times in most, if not all tests, and atleast all of the classical tests...

It's amazing how someone can be democratically elected and dedicated to improving the lives of his people and come out as the bad guy ("dictator", another "saddam hussein"). I find it VERY...

I am against it. I wouldn't object to being saved by a cure already developed by that method. If there was a hypothetical scenario where the cure hadn't been developed but could successfully be made...

Cool. I wonder how far away we can reasonably expect to see results from this (on other scientific fields and cures for diseases).

Your quote says they are at the forefront, but I wonder how true...

going to reveal the answer?

I'm curious for these various sleep schedules how sleep stages change. The 2 hours awake 20 minutes asleep states it makes it pure REM sleep. That excludes the 'slow wave' sleep, which is critical...

Is it 4 hours off 4 hours on infinitely or 4 off 4 on 4 off 12 on? The former results in total 12 hours on 12 off (less time awake) and the latter in 16 on 8 off (equal time awake), so how is it you...

Must be by the same people that made the "smart" car, by the name and look. Looks like they made the smart car even smaller. One of the major problems is the smart car is only usable for city driving...

He didn't say that it was the easiest to learn, he meant it was the easiest to get very accurate definitions.

Facial that was a very nice explanation :)

Creation of robots capable of such things seems too far off to be worth thinking of. Look at what MIT AI student graduates produce these days, a dysfunctional vacuum cleaner they call a robot (that...

From what I've been told about Latin I wish it were still going, as a universal language instead of English. OT- wasn't the attempt at a universal language like 90% latin? I hope I pick enough of it...

Rank languages in terms of usage for future scientific development and add any looked over. Specify what branches of science your choices apply to. No need to include english because I'm sure we all...
