http://www.bachelorsdegreeonline.com/blog/2011/25-awe-inspiring-science-talks-on-ted/ The natural world is an amazing thing, and despite the volumes upon volumes that we know about it, we've barely scratched the surface when it comes to truly understanding our universe and the things within it. Yet just because there's so much information out there doesn't mean you shouldn't try to learn as much as you can about science. These lectures reflect information that's at the cutting edge, from medical discoveries that could change lives to astrophysical research that's expanding our knowledge of the worlds that lie beyond our own galaxy, and they can help you get an education in some of the greatest wonders the scientific fields have to offer. Humans These lectures address the science of human life, from how our brains work to how we interact with one another. Sam Harris: Science can answer moral questions : In this talk, you'll hear how science can play a role in the establishment of right, wrong, good and evil — even if that seems against all common logic on the subject.

Will we ever overcome the Heisenberg uncertainty principle

http://www.askamathematician.com/2010/08/q-will-we-ever-overcome-the-heisenberg-uncertainty-principle/ Physicist : Nopers! The Heisenberg uncertainty principle, while normally presented in physics circles, is actually a mathematical absolute. So overcoming the uncertainty principle is exactly as hard as overcoming that whole “1+1=2″ thing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existentialism Existentialism is a term applied to the work of a number of late 19th- and 20th-century philosophers who, despite profound doctrinal differences, [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] shared the belief that philosophical thinking begins with the human subject—not merely the thinking subject, but the acting, feeling, living human individual. [ 4 ] In existentialism, the individual's starting point is characterized by what has been called "the existential attitude", or a sense of disorientation and confusion in the face of an apparently meaningless or absurd world. [ 5 ] Many existentialists have also regarded traditional systematic or academic philosophies, in both style and content, as too abstract and remote from concrete human experience. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Søren Kierkegaard is generally considered to have been the first existentialist philosopher, [ 8 ] [ 9 ] [ 10 ] though he himself did not use the term Existentialism.

Online Speed Reading tools and software

Simply start by clicking on the Play button on the left. Reading is that one activity that we do every day but we don't really practice. Most people learn the basics of reading in kindergarten and never graduate to the next levels. You are probably using the same basic rudimental tools and techniques that you learned when you were 6. The average American person reads at an average speed of 180 to 240 words per minute and has done so since he was 16 years old. Does it make sense that we hit our best performance at age 16 and that we don't improve much after that? http://www.eyercize.com/practice/read
