Observatory: Marijuana Ingredient May Fight Bacteria:
[Via NYT > Science]

Researchers have discovered that the main active ingredient in marijuana shows promise as an antibacterial agent.

I am sitting around playing with the data, now that I can see it.  This is the Luterbacher data (which passed) any of the three magic sorting tests, scaled according to the standard deviation from 1400 to 1800.  I haven't worked through the data enough to understand everything but one thing is for sure, Luterbacher contributes significantly to the overall peak in recent times.  The next thing I am going to work on is verification and then I might do some curve fitting.  The green curve represents a 9 year square filter.

Tropical Storm Hanna at 5pm was located near Ocean Springs MD moving northeast at 30 mph. Because of the forward speed, I would think that inland flooding potential should be relatively minor, though some locations may receive excessive amounts.  If you want a Tropical Storm Hanna Radar Loop, CLICK HERE.  Just navigate from the default of the Ohio Valley to wherever you like, even down to street level.  Click "animate" to loop.

Maybe now I'll b able to find more weather stations. From Reuters, excerpt:

GeoEye launches high-resolution satellite

Liftoff from Vandenberg

By Andrea Shalal-Esa

WASHINGTON, Sept 6 (Reuters) - GeoEye Inc said it successfully launched into space on Saturday its new GeoEye-1 satellite, which will provide the U.S. government, Google Earth users and others the highest-resolution commercial color satellite imagery on the market.

again, I am so sorry for how long this post is -- but if you have time to read it, do so. If you have children or near school-aged children I would recommend reading it in its entirety. This is an Excerpt from John Taylor Gatto's book. It terrifying, evil and true. We have been participating in a national jailing system... and its not going to get better because, although it is considered a failure in terms of supporting us in becoming true human beings (and I mean that as a verb, not a noun), it is entirely successful when it comes to "efficient" socioeconomic domination of the masses, the "dumbing down", as Gatto would say, of the human spirit.

I am currently playing Spore by Maxis, the guys who brought us The Sims games and true to form this is a wonderfully charming simulation only this time the theme is evolution. Starting off as a single celled organism swimming around the simulated primordial soup, you have to gradually eat, fight and interect with all the different species you encounter throughout your billions of years of evolution with the ultimate goal being to be the dominant species in the galaxy.  The game, kind of like other Sims games is a toy rather than a particularly goal driven linear affair much like other electroninc pet toys from the past and it isn't particularly challenging either, but what it lacks in depth and challenge it more than makes up for in charm, community and in some respects is quite an educational tool when it comes to explaining the theory of evolution, albeit in a simplistic but ultimately engaging way.

I thoroughly reccommend this game to any PC gamer out there.

Using Causality to Solve the Puzzle of Quantum Spacetime by Jerzy Jurkiewicz, Renate Loll, and Jan Ambjorn (Scientific American)

Note: This was originally published with the title "The Self-Organizing Quantum Universe"

Prerequisite knowledge: Relativity and Quantum Mechanics are fundamentally at odds with each other. Relativity seems to work on big scales, from satellites and planets to solar systems and galaxies, while QM only seems to work on smaller scales with electrons up to, maybe, actual cells. (That's another topic ...)

The quest to unify these two physics theories is one that has been voyaged since late in Einstein's life. A theory of quantum gravity is one of those holy grails.

Science - another academic field mostly controlled by the Jewish establishment is wreaking havoc on the human race.

I just received the following video on possible H.A.A.R.P. activities regarding the four hurricanes currently in the Atlantic.  In all my 50 years I've never seen four consecutive hurricanes at one time.

შავი ხვრელი რა არისო რომ კითხო რიგით ობივატელს, გიპასუხებს ხუივოზნაეტ რა არისო, ამიტომაც ის აუცილებლად უნდა გავიდეს რაღაცეების სიაში და არა იმიტომ, რომ ყველამ არ იცის რა არის ის. არა, მისი რაობა არავინ არ იცის დანამდვილებით, რაღაცეების კონკურსი რომ იყოს, შავი ხვრელი აუცილებლად აიღებდა პირველ ადგილს, კლასიკურ და ბერძნულ-რომაულ სტილებში.

Como si unas invisibles riendas tirasen desde la tierra arrastrando la masa de nubes hacia abajo desde el cielo. En Nuevo Mexico entre Roswell y Vaughn Así es la espectacular formación de un tornado.
