Truth-Telling In Israel Is Very Very Unpopular
It's amazing what propaganda will do to people. Sometimes it's just amazing that they can be so reasonable and logical in some ways but in others completely the opposite. Look at these people they don't question they don't study they don't ask questions, they just repeat whatever they were told over and over and over. It's honestly the end of humanity, this little genetic accident of a frontal lobe caused us great success and then tremendous failure.
Just 1% - told by Neil DeGrasse Tyson
The biggest intelligence difference is really the development of the frontal lobe which handles communication, abstract thinking, problem solving and a host of other things involved in higher thinking.
Casey Heynes' Bully Richard Gale says HE was bullied first
>Sincerity not found.
Maybe I miss heard but his reason for backing Casey against a wall and punching him several times while trying to humiliate him in front of everyone was because Casey bullied him by telling him to get back to class? Maybe that eyebrow piercing nicked his frontal lobe a little but I'm failing to see the logical reasoning behind the supposed offense and his reaction.
This kid is going to have some real problems in the future if pops doesn't step up his parenting game. So far his biggest concern seems to be the public humiliation and vitriol he's suffering cause his kid got caught being a twat. He needs to be extremely alarmed by his child's seeming lack of empathy or inability to judge appropriate reactions to a lackadaisical insult.
The Spirit Molecule - DMT FULL Documentary
Describing their trips I noticed a few recurring themes. First, the stoppage of time. I've read a few books on time limited psychotherapy and they came to mind there. True joy is the state of timelessness - you lose all anxiety if there's no yesterday or tomorrow. Second was the loss of the physical self. This made me think of the supression of activity in the superior parietal lobe, (the part that processes your spatial awareness, including where your 'outer shell' is in space), which is possible with good meditation.
I also noticed the one lady saying she saw a pink light and tried to make it white, suggesting she had some knowledge that the trip was exclusively from her own mind and there was the possibility of controlling it.
Not to be a dick, but I think the problem I have with this is that a psychiatrist performed the tests without a neurologist.

Emperor was a more bold game, which tried to do a lot of things. It was one of the first 3D RTS games, which pretty much killed it for me, not because it was ugly, but because it freaking killed my PC at the time. The story was much more true to the book in that one too, with different houses and factions.
Dune 2000 was a straight re-make of Dune 2, but with the lessons they'd learned from C&C and Red Alert, ie. it was great.

This was a really good game. Does the intro narrator have to speak so slowly though? It sounds like she has a nailgun nail in her frontal lobe.
I didn't like Dune 2000 that much. It wasn't bad.
So old Dune2ers, did you try http://drackbolt.blogspot.com/ yet?

Jesse Ventura "I Think Religion Is The Root Of ALL Evil!"
>> ^Gallowflak:
I like him. But I think it's dense to imagine religion as being the root of all evil. Religion is a fabrication of man, and has to be a consequence of something else. It's the inadequacy of the human creature which is the root of all evil, filtering into the world through various delightful minty flavours.
Agreed. Christopher Hitchens put it with characteristic bluntness when he spoke of the inherent shortcomings of human beings.
So, in point of fact, THAT is the true root of all evil: our craptastic brains.
Why You Don't Think with your Balls
Yeah, I don't see why falling victim of false imprisonment and theft should be seen a funny or justified just because you were "thinking with your balls".
I execute several testicular computations when making decisions on a daily basis, but other people still shouldn't have the right to abuse me just because of the fact that they think exclusively with their ovaries or frontal lobes.
Rachel Re: They're Not Embarassed
To help you understand better, NinjaInHeat, on American politics, just think on this. The concept of a conservative/liberal agenda news agency did not emerge until Fox News turned from 'journalistic quality' in the early 90's to sensational news coverage. Basically, that 'news' agency started to embrace more weird things and not so much stable ideas. During that time, it was not leaning to one or the other side of the political spectrum. With the 'election' of George W. Bush, the owner of Fox News started to switch it from 'neutral' to 'conservative' journalism. During the first couple of years, pass 2000, more and more Americans started to hear of differences between Fox News an all others.
They called it 'the elite media' or 'leftist media'. In an effort to undermine good journalism in favor of their style of journalism. Journalists/reporters were often charged with the task of reporting the news, as it happened, and allow the audience to form their opinions. They would show facts and evidence, and would stay away from opinionated journalism. Think 'Walter Conkrite'. So, Fox News, turned to having a political 'bent' on news reporting. They often tried to put the Republican President, Mr. George W. Bush in the best possible light. Anyone who remains neutral on the subject would point out, that, it undermines good journalism. They were the last ones to report about events in several spots (i.e. Gitmo), and did try to spin the knowledge of an event in the most favorible manner towards the Republican president and Congress (which until 2006, was controlled by the Republican party).
During this timeline, radio, in an effort to draw more listeners, started to bend towards conservative politics. Radio was getting heavily hammered thanks to the Internet, and needed a gimmick to draw more listeners to its site. Largely to get people to buy products and services the radio stations aired on ads.
Conservative radio, actually changed how Fox News 'reported' information. On talk radio, often the host would try to keep the tone and mood of any discussion on subjects that would anger its listeners. Making callers respond in angered voices. As anyone who has studied psychology will understand. Someone who talks in a calm, rational tone, generally can think and be reasoned with. When someone is beyond angry, their ability to think rationally is severally if not, totally, eliminated. Hence were the concept of 'blind rage' comes from. The Frontal Lobe of the human brain shuts down.
So, back to Fox News, and your question. Any news source that doesn't blindly agree with Fox News or conservative talk radio, is, to those people, liberal media. Whether the media is actually liberal bias or not, is irrelavent. So, for example, CNN (i.e. cnn.com) is considered liberal. The BCC, in England, is liberal. The Washington Times (or is the Post?), is liberal. The Boston Globe, is liberal. Newsweek, Money, and even Forbes, is liberal. Generally, any publication that questions Republicans, is automatically liberal. Conservative media will not show things, that hinder its philosophy or show moderates/liberals in a positive tone.
/end neutral bias
I've seen alot of news coverage by Fox News on the sift here, showing how they undermine good jounalism in favor of the latest spin to keep Republicans out of scrutiny. I'm sure many of the people here could post links of some of the more amusing moments in which Fox News, Hannity, Beck, O'Reilly, or even Rush Limbaugh tries to change the facts to place conservatives/Republicans in to the best possible light. And, to lump moderates as liberals. Then, to show liberals/Democrats in the worst possible light.
Honestly, to understand American politics, one needs to listen to all possible sides on a given piece of information or event. Use, 'critical thinking skills', wisdom, and reason, to figure out what the reason information and facts are, THEN, decide on how to accept that information. For most conservatives, and some liberals, that's way to much effort to expect to take in.

That comment doesn't deserve an upvote.
It's so random though!
Random in the sense that its puerile, tired, irrelevant, and a particularly unfunny rehashing of a 60-year-old stereotype? On moment, my frontal lobes are smashing themselves against the inside of my skull in despair.

How much of our brain do we use?
I'm wondering if the Brits really do use such different terminology in anatomy.
I've been going over brain anatomy in class recently (my girlfriend and I are currently training to be CMTs). "Lower Brain" is more commonly referred to as the Cerebellum, and it is, in fact, largely responsible for our autonomic nervous system. It also acts like as an output filter of sorts - it helps manage the nervous impulses we need to generate to move skeletal (voluntary) muscles.
I'm confused why they're calling the entire Cerebrum the "cortex." The Cortex of the brain is it's "surface" - that's what "cortex" means ("corticosteroids" are secreted by the surface tissues of our adrenal glands). Also, I've never heard of an "amigdala" before (Wasn't she Natalie Portman's character in those awful Star Wars prequels?), but the structure highlighted in the video is the Diencephalon, which houses the hypothalimus and the pituitary glands. The "emotional center" of the brain is referred to as the "Limbic center," which resides behind the frontal lobe. Reflex actions are usually handled directly by the spinal cord for things that need to happen faster than our brains will process, like kicking your leg when your doctor hits your knee with that funny rubber hammer.
