Achieving an Ambidextrous Mindset by C. Bailey-Lloyd
... Some of us may have heard that we're 'right-brained' or maybe we lean more toward the 'left-brain.' Funny as these terms may seem, they are inherently one in the same. Though we may possess and exhibit more qualities from one side of the brain opposed to the other, we are still integrating both hemispheres in daily applications. Right-brain people are said to think holistically, subjectively and may possess heightened intuition. Left-brain people are more logical, analytical and tend to ...

Here Comes The Sun: Solar Energy is Becoming More Attractive for Mainstream Consumers by Kavar Peter
... In 1985 annual worldwide solar power system installation accounted for 21 megawatts of power. By 2004, this had multiplied to an incredible 927 megawatts in new installation power production alone. The demand for solar produced energy over the last several years has increased annually about 25%, although in 2004 sales were up a whopping 67% from the previous year. There are several reasons for this increase in popularity for all things solar powered.

Increasing Brain Power by Tim Bryce
... Note that in addition to the main effect of conditions of testing, women reported higher stress levels than men overall."Basically, Wilson's study is saying that excessive use of technology can have an adverse effect on a person's brain power. This is somewhat disturbing as technology now permeates our society. As an example, while traveling through the airports recently I observed the majority of my fellow travelers "tuned out" by technology. The lion's share of travelers today make active ...

Where Computer Interfaces Are Going : 3D Beyond Games by Tristan Grimmer
... I've heard the assertion that adding a single extra dimension doesn't buy you much organizational power and that the added navigational complexity isn't worth it. Others think that we need an n-dimensional space to do a good job. Aside from the obvious observation that we seem to exist in a macroscopically three-dimensional world ( macroscopically was added just to keep any physicists-who-may-know-better reading) and are therefore good at 3D manipulations, there is evidence that the jump ...

The Notebooks Of Leonardo Davinci by Kevin Wilson
... In his years in the Vatican, he planned an industrial use of solar power, by employing concave mirrors to heat water. While most of Leonardo's inventions were not built during his lifetime, models of many of them have been constructed with the support of IBM and are on display at the Leonardo Da Vinci Museum at the Château du Clos Lucé in Amboise. His notebooks Leonardo's notebooks were on four main themes; architecture, elements of mechanics, painting and human anatomy.

Explode Your World With Possibilities by Saleem Rana
... The industrial revolution created a demand for more brain power and a small minority of people responded. Imagine what would happen in a world where everyone was allowed to be much more intelligent? We would be building cities under the ocean and colonizing space and resolving those bewildering problems that are threatening to destroy our species altogether. Now, sadly, nobody is going to give you permission to be as bright, capable, and effective as you want to be.

The Hazard of Using Calculators at School by Victor Guskov
... Their brains slowly but surely get accustomed to walking on crutches and became indolent to use mental computational abilities, whereas skills, which are not used, became forgotten very soon. In certain cases it leads to difficulties in math’s learning. Both my experience (32 years in the classroom) and my investigations (20 years of studies) shows that pupils with unsteady elementary mental computational skills (addition and subtraction within the limits of 20, multiplication and division ...

Chewing Gum Battery Concept; Future Innovation by Lance Winslow
... Maybe a tiny light too or running a LCD or LED device such as a computer chip for something? Or an ELT communication device? Or a brain-wave/computer interface? Who knows, vibrational energies will be a huge thing in the future so, if you have this gum-candy device, with a membrane you could soak this device over night in flavor crystals and nice tasting stuff and then chew on it all day and then have its power for a PDA, Cell Phone, Calculator, iPod, flashlight or some other important device.
