My favorite quote from the article is below:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/johann-hari/johann-hari-republicans-religion-and-the-triumph-of-unreason-1773994.html">Johann Hari: Republicans, religion and the triumph of unreason - Johann Hari, Commentators - The Independent</a>: "These increasingly frenzied claims have become so detached from reality that they often seem like black comedy. The right-wing magazine US Investors' Daily claimed that if Stephen Hawking had been British, he would have been allowed to die at birth by its 'socialist' healthcare system. Hawking responded with a polite cough that he is British, and 'I wouldn't be here without the NHS'."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-5838633216088985134?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-71930025785259382032009-08-03T16:16:00.000-07:002009-08-03T16:17:11.722-07:00<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sndv93dJb2I/AAAAAAAAang/QHXQSkFKUWI/s1600-h/photo-731724.jpg"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sndv93dJb2I/AAAAAAAAang/QHXQSkFKUWI/s320/photo-731724.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365880589684141922" /></a></p> <br> <br> <br>Sent from my iPhone<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-7193002578525938203?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-8486881790843449182009-07-28T20:42:00.001-07:002009-07-28T20:42:57.702-07:00<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sm_FQRNxljI/AAAAAAAAafI/nQgKMfqlbk0/s1600-h/photo-777703.jpg"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sm_FQRNxljI/AAAAAAAAafI/nQgKMfqlbk0/s320/photo-777703.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363722564511307314" /></a></p> <br> <br> <br>Sent from my iPhone<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-848688179084344918?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-79379054359610823692009-07-28T11:47:00.000-07:002009-07-28T11:47:06.000-07:00Compelling reasons why Dr Francis Collins is not a good candidate for director of NIH.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/science-is-in-the-details/">Science Is in the Details :: Sam Harris</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-7937905435961082369?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-58869038839315808102009-07-14T19:28:00.000-07:002009-07-14T19:29:01.606-07:00<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sl0-7THVfeI/AAAAAAAAaX0/o26e-JRy6AY/s1600-h/photo-741608.jpg"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_FXggGMcdUIY/Sl0-7THVfeI/AAAAAAAAaX0/o26e-JRy6AY/s320/photo-741608.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5358508320105004514" /></a></p> <br> <br> <br>Sent from my iPhoneChildrens pool la jolla<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-5886903883931580810?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-23403453467452418182009-06-15T18:49:00.001-07:002009-06-15T18:50:24.665-07:00I... want... this... game...<br /><br /><object width="625" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/FjfAXCKLcfk&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/FjfAXCKLcfk&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xcfcfcf&hl=en&feature=player_embedded&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-2340345346745241818?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-5501309680717698262009-06-10T14:27:00.001-07:002009-06-10T14:29:03.314-07:00Cool interview with Gerald Edelman in Discover<br /><br /><a href="http://discovermagazine.com/2009/feb/16-what-makes-you-uniquely-you">What Makes you uniquely you?</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-550130968071769826?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-28485628259509308552009-05-12T13:56:00.000-07:002009-05-12T13:56:39.423-07:00<a href="http://www.wired.com/gadgets/miscellaneous/news/2007/05/sharkmagnets#previouspost">Geeky Rare-Earth Magnets Repel Sharks</a>: "Divers and swimmers may thrill to the idea of shark safeguards. However, before you rush out to buy neodymium magnets to create your own shark-repelling gear, Herrmann cautions that the magnets appear to have an effective range of only 10 inches. Also, you'd need to align the magnetic poles outward and keep the magnets from clicking together, and once you had the necessary 10 to 20 pounds of magnets all over your body, you'd sink. So, at a cost of about $5 a magnet, you could theoretically turn yourself into a $400 shark-safe anchor at the bottom of the sea."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-2848562825950930855?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-54977740086544139222009-04-22T10:13:00.000-07:002009-04-22T10:15:46.388-07:00Good news on the shark front! <br /><br />From the <a href="http://oceana.org/north-america/media-center/press-releases/press_release/0/968/">Oceana org</a>:<br /><br />The House of Representatives passed the Shark Conservation Act of 2009 (H.R. 81) yesterday. This bill would require sharks to be landed with their fins still naturally attached, which allows for better enforcement and data collection in stock assessments and quota monitoring.<br /><br />Below is a statement from Beth Lowell, federal policy director at Oceana, an international marine conservation organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the world's oceans.<br /><br />The Shark Conservation Act will improve existing laws that were originally intended to prevent shark finning. This legislation will also allow the U.S. to take action against countries whose shark finning restrictions are not as strenuous, labeling the U.S. as a continued international leader in shark conservation.<br /><br />Oceana now looks to the Senate for fast action to enact the Shark Conservation Act into law. It is time for the U.S. to end shark finning once and for all. <br /><br />Background:<br />Tens of millions of sharks are caught globally for just their fins each year. During the finning process, sharks are typically hauled up on deck, their fins sliced off and the animals thrown back to sea, often still alive. <br />========================================<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/11787847-5497774008654413922?l=k3rm1t.blogspot.com'/></div>K3rM1thttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03755939168041000680noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787847.post-29580665455541673582009-04-11T09:13:00.000-07:002009-04-11T09:13:08.218-07:00<a href="http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/richard_dawkins_on_our_queer_universe.html">Richard Dawkins on our &quot;queer&quot; universe | Video on TED.com</a><br /><br />Interesting TED talk from Richard Dawkins.
