On his desk next to his computer sat crunched Red Bulls, empty Gatorade bottles, some extra pocket change and scattered pieces of paper. In the pocket of his sweat pants rested a blaring iPod with a chord that dangled near the floor, almost touching against his Adidas sandals. On his computer sat even more stray objects than his surrounding environment. Mike made a shift about every thirty seconds between all of the above. Do you know a person like this? The Science Behind Concentration In the above account, Mike’s obviously stuck in a routine that many of us may have found ourselves in, yet in the moment we feel it’s almost an impossible routine to get out of.

The importance of observing Never was the phrase "a job well begun, is a job half done" truer than in the case of memory. All memories begin with what you perceive – with how you see, hear and feel the world. And for that simple reason, the first way to boost your memory is to make sure that you experience the world as vividly, clearly and meaningfully as possible. To understand how to do this, we need to appreciate that our senses are not designed to record the world, but instead to make sense of it. Remembering names and faces Let's see how this works by examining the way we go about remembering names and faces at a party. To do that, you'll first want to put lots of life and imagination into the way you experience the person's face. • Who do they remind me of? • What animal does this person most resemble? • What would their caricature look like? • If they were a genius, what would their talent be? • If they were on the run from the police, what crime would they have committed? • Don't rush. How to keep focus

Do-It-Yourself Biology | MIT World Personal and Historical Perspectives of Hans Bethe Hawking on the future of mankind To mark his 70th birthday, physicist Professor Stephen Hawking answered a selection of questions from listeners to Radio 4's Today Programme. Topics ranged from the origins of the universe to the prospects for extra terrestrial life and the impact on Einstein's theory of relativity should neutrinos be confirmed to travel faster than light. It seems clear that Professor Hawking believes we we will have to colonise space if we are to avoid catastrophe, but he is upbeat about the prospects for self-sustaining colonies on Mars and believes the human race will eventually spread out across the far reaches of the universe. Finding intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, he says, would be the greatest scientific discovery ever, but he is not optimistic about the likely outcome. 1. The origin of the universe can be explained by the laws of physics, without any need for miracles or Divine intervention. 2. Einstein's theory of relativity predicts that nothing can travel faster than light. 3. 4. 5.
