A recent article In Bloomberg Green, a regular news blog focused on climate change and energy conservation, provided insights into the recent report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations organization of scientists from 195 countries across the globe, that stated that the science “is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean and land.” This is an astounding statement that shows remarkable alignment across the world’s leading scientists on climate change. This level of concurrence is remarkable because science is messy. Scientific research is bound by standardized practices that require repeatable confirmed tests that validate a scientific hypothesis or theory. In practice, a theory is rarely, if ever, proven….

Middle children are unfairly stereotyped as apprehensive underachievers who suffer from parental neglect, but research shows that they’re actually quite ambitious: Many middle children grow up to be the most successful members of their families, and several have gone onto become some of the most accomplished people in history. “[Middle children] are considered to be neglected, be resentful, have no drive, have a negative outlook, and feel like they don’t belong,” Katrin Schumann, co-author of The Secret Power of Middle Children, told Psychology Today — though she believes they’d been quite harshly misjudged. Written in collaboration with psychologist and researcher Dr. Catherine Salmon, Schummaninvestigated the phenomenon of “middle child syndrome” in her book,… Source link

Friends and colleagues have urged me to write something about UFOs, because the topic is hot again and I’m sort of the space alien reporter on staff. This refers not to where I’m from, but to the kind of stuff I used to write about. I wrote a book (“Captured by Aliens,” 1999) that was primarily about the scientific search for extraterrestrial life and included a long section on UFO mythology. I’ve been to Roswell. I wrote about the mass suicide of the 39 Heaven’s Gate cultists who thought they would be transported to a spaceship trailing comet Hale-Bopp. I’ve interviewed people who think their bodies have become inhabited by aliens from the Pleiades. But I’m wary of returning to that strange universe, because anything I write is guaranteed to be unsatisfying for… Source link

FAIRFAX, Va. (PRWEB) August 11, 2021 Upon its introduction in 1989, nuclear cold fusion offered a promising prospect for sustainable energy production. While failed attempts at replicating the original experiment and other short-sighted skepticism led a large portion of the scientific community to prematurely abandon further research, others continued to study nuclear cold fusion as an alternative energy source, including author and research and development scientist Randolph R. Davis. In “Bridging the Gaps: An Anthology on Nuclear Cold Fusion,” Davis reviews groundbreaking discoveries made over the last… Source link

With hundreds of weapons available in Destiny 2, it can make the process of objectively selecting the best of each category challenging. With around 50,000 daily average players just on Steam alone, each player is going to have their own preferential playstyle and weapons. That being said, when it comes to selecting the best trace rifles in the game, that task is relatively easy: there are only five in total and all of them are Exotic quality. If you have any of these already or have recently found one, they take special ammo, just like shotguns and sniper rifles do. Because they are so rare, when they were first introduced they could only be infused with auto rifles, but now any energy weapon will do. So without further ado, let’s look at the five best (and only) trace rifles in… Source link

Everyone likely conjures a different moment when they hear the name Val Kilmer. Many will remember him drawling “I’m your huckleberry” as Doc Holliday in Tombstone (1993). Others may see a toothy gentleman with a gray combover sneering, “You don’t put any stock in this cold-fusion mumbo jumbo, do you?” in The Saint (1997). For me, it’s him menacingly snapping his jaw—likened to “the sharp-cut bottom half of a stop sign”—at Tom Cruise in Top Gun (1986) with a shit-eating grin after puny Maverick says, laughably, “I am dangerous.” Kilmer has been an unlikely pandemic comeback star. After a viral New York Times Magazine profile last May, timed to coincide with the publication of his best-selling autobiography, this weekend sees the release of Val, a new documentary… Source link
