  • Forgotten Ancient Civilizations Of The World
    By: prolificrandy | - We call ourselves civilized though we have been indulging in uncivilized acts. Does being civilized come to a society over a period of time? Or was it possible that people living aeons ago could have been civilized. Are we confusing modernization with civilization? We imagine that being technologically advanced entitles us to call ourselves civilized. How did people live, say 4,000 years ago? Isnt it difficult to perceive? We believed that people living 1,000 years ago could have been barbari ...

When electrons are vibrated within a range of even more specific frequency, specific wave length of electromagnetic radiation is emitted which results in specific col ...

An idea suddenly came upon her mind, "perhaps I can have a run". This idea came as a great surprise to her. Later, she recollected: "This is a revolutionary idea. I have never seen if there was a woman running. This entire concept was strange for me".

  • How To Boost Employee Motivation With Better Leadership
    By: Trevor Hill | - It is an astonishing fact - repeatedly shown in numerous surveys - that two-thirds of the workforce are not engaged in their work. Imagine the magnitude of lost productivity and innovation this represents! It also lies at the heart of much workplace strife and it denies workers any chance of true satisfaction from their working life. It begs the question - what causes this lack of employee motivation?

    No doubt the responsibility is shared - the workers may have limited vision and as ...

I keep coming back to the inescapable logic that a large fraction of Americans, regardless of their education, econ ...

  • The Main Stream Media And The Void It Leaves Behind
    By: Howard Jacobs | - There has been a lot of discussion recently about media bias. Liberals point to the fact that the media has become consolidated among a relatively few big corporations and therefore, has a bias to the right. Conservatives point to the fact that most people in the media, based on surveys, are registered democrats and vote consistently for the democrat candidate, thereby displaying a bias to the left.

    In fact, neither of these claims proves media bias. It is ludicrous to say that ...

  • Distorted Communication
    By: William R. Murray | - Biases Filter

    We all have biases that filter much of what we hear, see and think. This means our perceptions and conclusions are distorted. Biases distort reality. This hurts communication too because what the speaker means to convey is not what the hearer gets after the hearer filters the message.

    Dr.Wagner Paulon
    2008


    I think "crazy" today is more a matter of point of view of society than of a "disease" that is, all those people considered "hostile to traditional forms of conduct are labeled as" crazy "or are treated as such .

    To better explain my opinion, I would transcribe some excerpts from the book New Consciousness (Luis Carlos Maciel, Eldorado, 2) 8 pp. 1973) in which the subject is clothed in an a ...

    This is an article of interest to anyone who owns a website, particularly if it is valuable. The idea that it can never be stolen is misplaced. The idea that justice will prevail if you do not have the financial means for a proper lawyer is also misplaced.

Human resource professionals spend a lot of time whipping people into doing them, while managers look for a variety of reasons to delay the p ...

    By: Carrie Carter | - With a divorce rate of around 50% and many people not marrying until they are in their thirties, it is surprising to find that there are still many women who aren't financially educated. Most of this can be traced back to two factors: upbringing at home and society. In both cases, boys have often been given much more training and many more resources than girls have and the effects are damaging women financially today as they face a world in which they have to take care of monetary issues on th ...

(Jan 2005, Annals of Internal Medicine http://www.annals.org/content/vol142/issue1/) I was immediately suspicious because I have studied the scientific literature on vitamin E for over two decades and have come to the exact opposite conclusion.

Our age of wonderful technology came at a cost of great persecution and brought us out of the cave and off the pews into the light (fluorescent).

A subject like "America's Presidential Campaigns" that is so 'of the world' might be construed as relating only to political life, but that would be incorrect. What relates to consciousness is part of our spiritual life, as is what relates to the operation of light and darkness, and what relates to the vision we hold for the future.

    By: Jeffrey T Junig | - A multi-vehicle trauma! This is what it is all about, I thought, as I followed my senior resident to the stairs. While my age placed my training against a St. Elsewhere's backdrop, my excitement was more consistent with the modern, high-energy ER soundtrack. The emergency room itself inspired excitement, and as a third year medical student I had not yet developed the healthy fear that affected more senior, and more answerable, members of our surgical team. As we approached the cubicle I noted ...

  • Hindsight Bias In The Courtroom
    By: David S. Davis, Ph.D. | - People tend, with the benefit of hindsight, to falsely believe that they would have predicted the outcome of an event. More colloquially, hindsight bias could be called the "You should have known all along" phenomenon. In the context of litigation, it can lead juries to find defendants which took reasonable care negligent or even reckless. The mere fact that an injury occurred is enough to conclude that the defendant should have known that an injury would occur.
