Xenoglossy ( pron.: / ˈ z iː n ɵ ɡ l ɒ s i / or / ˈ z ɛ n ɵ ɡ l ɒ s i / ), also written xenoglossia ( / z iː n ɵ ˈ ɡ l ɒ s i ə / or / z ɛ n ɵ ˈ ɡ l ɒ s i ə / ), is the putative paranormal phenomenon in which a person is able to speak or write a language he or she could not have acquired by natural means. For example, a person who speaks German fluently, but who is not a native German speaker, has never studied German, never been to a German-speaking country, and never associated with German speakers or had any other source of exposure to the German language, would be said to exhibit xenoglossy. The existence of xenoglossy is not generally accepted by linguists and psychologists (Samarin 1976, Thomason 1984, 1987, 1996).

Bonheur national brut
Bonheur intérieur net

Le bonheur intérieur net (BIN) est un indice de mesure économique et sociale créé en 1980 par le Centre d'étude des niveaux de vie, un organisme canadien , et le magazine économique français L'Expansion [ 1 ] , [ 2 ] . Partant du principe que le produit intérieur brut (PIB) ne tient compte que des données économiques brutes, entretenant ainsi une vision purement matérialiste de l'économie, et que l'économiste américain Richard Easterlin a mis en évidence l'absence de corrélation entre développement économique et sentiment de bien-être ( paradoxe d'Easterlin ), les créateurs de cet indice proposent de mesurer le « bonheur national » et de comparer les résultats obtenus avec l'évolution économique de l' État considéré [ 3 ] . Les critères utilisés sont les suivants [ 1 ] , [ 2 ] , [ 3 ] :

If you experience "mind fog" after watching television, you are not alone. Studies have shown that watching television induces low alpha waves in the human brain. Alpha waves are brainwaves between 8 to 12 HZ. and are commonly associated with relaxed meditative states as well as brain states associated with suggestibility. While Alpha waves achieved through meditation are beneficial (they promote relaxation and insight), too much time spent in the low Alpha wave state caused by TV can cause unfocussed daydreaming and inability to concentrate. Researchers have said that watching television is similar to staring at a blank wall for several hours..
