Download, print, fold, paste Downloading cars, houses and aeroplanes is no science fiction. In the future, a desktop fabricator may be as common as a desktop computer today, 3D-printers might complement inkjet printers. Downloading, sharing and printing of appliances might become as ordinary (and controversial) as it is today with music, movies and texts. Yet, downloading objects is already possible with a familiar computer configuration. At least, if the objects are made of paper and if you are willing to spend some time cutting and pasting. Paper cut-outs have a long history, but thanks to the internet they are making a comeback. Using imaging software, the objects can be scaled to your liking. 1. French blog Agence Eureka has several pages of downloadable cut-outs from far gone times - buildings, soldiers, classic cars, theatre scenes, farms, a circus, a camping site, and much more. 2. 3. Apple has a nice collection of cut-out computers and iPods. 4. 5. Papertoys is another place to go. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
Difficultés en amitié comme en amour du surdoué - ETRE SURDOUE - PRECOCITE ET DOUANCE : Un handicap plutôt qu'une chance ! Un sujet atteint de surefficience mentale, comme mentionné de nombreuses fois dans ce site, a le cerveau monté à l'envers. La notion d'amour va donc être analysée beaucoup plus en profondeur qu'elle ne l'est par un sujet ordinaire. Résultat, il va attaquer le grand sujet de l'amour avec sa moitié...A l'envers de la façon de le vivre habituellement en société ! Il faudra alors beaucoup d'efforts et de concessions chez sa moitié pour accepter le comportement déroutant de cet extraterrestre de l'amour qui semble mettre immédiatement la charrue avant les boeufs ! Ce sont les raisons pour lesquelles ce type de sujet s'avère souvent très intriguant pour une femme en paraissant être une personne frustratoire et tyrannique (un vrai TGV de l'amour absolu en quelque-sorte) ! Un surdoué est avant tout un compagnon aux sentiments exaltés et à l'attachement absolu.

EasyDefine - Define multiple words quickly How to retain 90% of everything you learn Imagine if you had a bucket of water. And every time you attempted to fill the bucket, 90% of the water would leak out instantly. Every time, all you’d retain was a measly 10%. How many times would you keep filling the bucket? The answer is simple: just once. The first time you noticed the leak, you’d take action You’d either fix the bucket or you’d get another bucket, wouldn’t you? Yet that’s not at all the way we learn. That weird thing is that you’re wasting time. To summarize the numbers (which sometimes get cited differently) learners retain approximately: 90% of what they learn when they teach someone else/use immediately. 75% of what they learn when they practice what they learned. 50% of what they learn when engaged in a group discussion. 30% of what they learn when they see a demonstration. 20% of what they learn from audio-visual. 10% of what they learn when they’ve learned from reading. 5% of what they learn when they’ve learned from lecture. 5000bc now has a Waiting List.
How to Extract DNA from Anything Living First, you need to find something that contains DNA. Since DNA is the blueprint for life, everything living contains DNA. For this experiment, we like to use green split peas. But there are lots of other DNA sources too, such as: Spinach Chicken liver Strawberries Broccoli Certain sources of DNA should not be used, such as: Your family pet, Fido the dog Your little sister's big toe Bugs you caught in the yard Step 1: Blender Insanity! Put in a blender: 1/2 cup of split peas (100ml) 1/8 teaspoon table salt (less than 1ml) 1 cup cold water (200ml) Blend on high for 15 seconds. The blender separates the pea cells from each other, so you now have a really thin pea-cell soup. Step 2: Soapy Peas Pour your thin pea-cell soup through a strainer into another container (like a measuring cup). Add 2 tablespoons liquid detergent (about 30ml) and swirl to mix. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes. Pour the mixture into test tubes or other small glass containers, each about 1/3 full. Why am I adding detergent?
Science vs. Religion: 50 Famous Academics on God by Maria Popova Decoding divinity, or what the great intellectuals of our time have to say about science and spirituality. The dialogue between science and religion is among humanity’s oldest and most controversial, drawing each era’s greatest thinkers into some of history’s most heated debates. We’ve previously looked at a BBC documentary on the complex relationship between the two and 7 essential books on the psychology of faith. Today, we turn to a fantastic mashup of 50 famous academics — including Brain Pickings favorites Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, Oliver Sacks, Steven Pinker and Daniel Dennett — talking about spirituality and science, created by Jonathan Pararajasingham. I can’t believe the special stories that have been made up about our relationship to the universe at large, because they seem to be too simple, to connected, too local, too provincial. The speakers, in order of appearance: 1. via @kirstinbutler Donating = Loving Brain Pickings has a free weekly newsletter.
