Great Ideas in Personality--Theory and Research 34 Lost Cities Forgotten by Time It’s hard to imagine how an entire city can get lost but that’s exactly what has happened to the lost cities on this list.

Swarm Theory I used to think ants knew what they were doing. The ones marching across my kitchen counter looked so confident, I just figured they had a plan, knew where they were going and what needed to be done. How else could ants organize highways, build elaborate nests, stage epic raids, and do all the other things ants do? Turns out I was wrong. Ants aren't clever little engineers, architects, or warriors after all—at least not as individuals. How do we explain, then, the success of Earth's 12,000 or so known ant species? "Ants aren't smart," Gordon says. Where this intelligence comes from raises a fundamental question in nature: How do the simple actions of individuals add up to the complex behavior of a group? One key to an ant colony, for example, is that no one's in charge.

Teaching Clinical Psychology - In-Class Exercises In-Class Exercises These exercises can be conducted in one class period - one hour or less. I've divided the exercises into the categories below, although the categories overlap. Respect the wishes of students who feel uncomfortable about participating in an experiential teaching exercise. Psychotherapy and Counseling Secrets and resistance in psychotherapy What's it like to reveal personal information about yourself in psychotherapy. An Intake Interview Give students a crack at conducting an intake interview with a psychiatric patient. Self-Insight Many of these exercises also apply to psychotherapy and counseling in that they involve processes of insight and self-exploration that are similar to those occurring in psychotherapy. Abnormality and Health Shades of Abnormality How severe is a person's mental illness?

We Showed 'Troll Physics' Comics to a Physics Professor. Here's His Reaction. Is it possible to "troll" the very laws of matter and motion that govern the universe for your own kinetic benefit? For example, can one survive a falling elevator by jumping up in the air at the last minute? Also, f*cking electromagnetism - how does it work? If you've pondered any of those questions before, the blog Troll Physics offers incredibly simple but impossible "hacks" for manipulating the laws of nature to yield infinite energy, money and/or sexual partners. Since this site is pretty much a physics teacher's worst nightmare, I cornered one to get his reaction. David Morgan, a natural science professor with a PhD in physics, was kind enough to bring some logic and rational discourse to this hilariously asinine pile of hot meme trash. DM: "Up" is not "North"...the only reasonable meaning for the word "up" is "in the opposite direction of the Earth's gravitational pull at the surface." DM: You don't really need a guy with a PhD to explain to you that bacon isn't a plant, right?
