God is the engineer... We re his creations nd He gave us a Manual for operation(bible). The machine does not last long when the manual's instructions re nt adhered to BUT when adhered to, the machine gets eternal life! There is always a frictional force(the devil) which will tend to cause wear nd tear and there is grease(the holy spirit, ) that lubricates thee. Have a Nice day peeps #myproblemfreePhilosophy |

Imagine the delight at unwrapping your Christmas present in 2043 and discovering you've been gifted a trip around the Moon. It may seem a little far-fetched right now but it could become a reality if space companies like Virgin Galactic realize their aspirations over the next 30 years or so. Richard Branson and his children are due to fly in his company's spaceship on its first commercial flight currently slated for 2014. But speaking to CNN outside a space conference in the UK last week, the company's CEO George Whitesides said their ambitions extended beyond sub-orbital flights for those first customers. "If we can make significant progress on the challenge of reusable space access then I think that opens up all kinds of opportunities in the future," he said. "One of the directions that might open up is high-speed point-to-point travel on Earth -- so that you could go from London to Singapore in an hour or go from London to Los Angeles in a couple of hours. Future tourists train for space flight SpaceX launches Falcon 9 rocket China launches first moon mission "We may be able to open up the opportunity for habitats in low Earth orbit, we could make it more affordable to do longer term flights -- even trips around the Moon. I think he [Branson] has high aspirations for a lot of these different activities." For the moment, Whitesides said the company is focused on completing the test flight program in preparation for the passenger flights that he said Virgin Galactic aims to run on a weekly basis once the service is established. Whitesides later told delegates at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory space conference that about 650 people had signed up for the trip, and over the next couple of years the company would double the number of people who have been into space since Yuri Gagarin's flight in 1961 which heralded the start of human exploration of space. But Virgin is not alone in developing the space tourism business. It faces competition from other commercial enterprises trying to attract fee-paying passengers -- and many agencies now offer satellite delivery services. Blue Origin, set up by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, says it is developing technologies to enable human access to space. And another private company, SpaceX, has already delivered payloads to the International Space Station. So with private companies launching services and national space agencies like India's ISRO joining the exploration of Mars and China setting off to land a probe on the Moon, is a fresh space race emerging? Whitesides suggests there is a new era dawning. "This is a great time," he told CNN. "There's a renaissance in space access -- between us and Blue and SpaceX and all these companies -- it's so exciting. "I think there's a very good chance that we're alive when we actually find another 'Earth' in another solar system -- how profound is that?" Scientists may get closer to that goal if proposed missions outlined at the UK conference get off the ground. Professor Giovanna Tinetti explained how one of the European Space Agency's candidate missions -- a space telescope called EChO -- would help analyze what exoplanet environments are like and whether they might be suitable for life. Delegates also heard about the plan to send a new probe to the Jovian system. The JUICE mission (JUpiter ICy moons Explorer) aims to explore not only the gas giant but also its three moons Ganymede, Callisto and Europa. Space physicist Professor Michele Dougherty said they were interested in finding out if water really is trapped between icy layers on Ganymede and its implications for "watery worlds" beyond Earth. The search for Earth-like planets is clearly something that fascinates Whitesides too. He believes we will soon be able to detect seasons on other worlds. And he's unlikely to have to wait until 2043 for his first taste of space adventure, having signed up for a seat in his company's spaceship. "I'm actually a customer as well," he said. "My wife and I bought two tickets in 2005. "I think it's important that I fly because just as Richard's flight is such an important signal to our customers that he believes in the system, similarly I need to do that as well." http://davennady..com/2013/12/tourists-to-trip-to-moon-by-2043.html |

Music is a powerful force that directly impacts how we think, feel, and act. From designing a playlist for the gym to finding those perfect tracks to listen to while making dinner, music has a place in almost everything we do. I have specific playlists for writing, for creative sessions, and for Sunday night emailing. But the direct influence music has on productivity is often misunderstood. Below, I'll break down how sound affects you and how you can use it to work smarter. The Four Ways Sound Affects You Julian Treasure is the founder of The Sound Agency, a U.K.-based consulting firm that helps brands develop and use sound effectively. In his TED talk on the subject, Treasure outlined the four main ways sound impacts you: Physiologically. Sound directly affects how your body functions. If you hear a siren in the background of a song, stress hormones like cortisol are released into your bloodstream. Meanwhile, listening to waves gently rolling ashore brings a sense of calm to your body. Treasure says this happens because ocean waves are about 12 beats per minute, close to your resting breathing rate. Psychologically. Different tones can make us feel happy or sad. The effect of sound on our emotional state can be traced back through thousands of years of evolution. This is why the sound of birds chirping in the morning makes you feel reassured, says Treasure. From an evolutionary perspective, singing birds indicate a safe environment. Cognitively. Sound can have a direct impact on how you process information. Many people find it nearly impossible to focus on two different auditory sources at the same time. We are bad at multitasking, especially when it comes to processing sound. So it’s not surprising that, according to studies, open-plan offices can drop your productivity by 66 percent. Behaviorally. Sound is so powerful that it can cause an immediate physical reaction. If an ambulance goes blaring by, you'll naturally try to shield your ears or move away. If someone screams in your ear, you'll flinch. The impact of sound on your core functioning is real, and recent research has shown that there may be ways you can harness the power of music and use it to your advantage — specifically when it comes to productivity. Listen to Music You Like for Simple Tasks In general, it's a good idea to listen to music you enjoy while you work. A study published in the Journal of Music Therapy noted that listening to your favorite type of music, whatever it is, lowers your perception of tension. This is especially true when you're tackling a simple task. The easier you think a task is, the more music can help you. That's exactly what researchers found when they looked at the accuracy of experienced surgeons while listening to music. The results of the study showed that the surgeons were most efficient and accurate when music they liked was playing in the background. They even performed better when music they didn't like was playing in the background than they did when there was no music at all. Similar findings have been discovered for monotonous tasks, like working on an assembly line or copying data into an Excel spreadsheet. When it comes to activities you feel are simple or boring, listening to music you enjoy can put you in a positive state of mind, improve your productivity, and increase the quality of your work. Go for Upbeat When Conquering Creative Tasks It can be hard to find the right music for every occasion. But if you’re having trouble choosing between listening to hip-hop and Bach’s greatest hits, researchers have found that one of the best ways to spark creativity is to listen to songs in the range of 50-80 beats per minute. Dr. Emma Gray, of The British CBT and Counselling Service, found that this tempo is ideal for creative tasks because it helps induce an “alpha state” where your mind becomes calm and alert, and concentration is heightened. (If you want to put this theory to the test, Gray partnered with Spotify to create a playlist of productivity-enhancing music, which you can listen to here.) Alpha waves, or synchronous and slow brain waves, have also been associated with the "eureka moment," a flash of insight that can be triggered when you enter a relaxed yet focused state of mind. Whether you're performing monotonus tasks or hoping to get inspired, listening to music will improve your state of mind. If you're happy and energized, you'll do better work. http://davennady..com/2013/12/how-listening-to-music-can-help-you.html |
To give someone a boost, ask them about a specific aspect of their life where they are doing well, and follow it up with a generic question about their overall happiness. It sounds simplistic, but it works wonders, according to Nobel laureate psychologist Daniel Kahneman. In a study, Kahneman asked students two questions: How many dates did you have last month? How happy are you these days? Those who were happy about their answer to the first question also reported a happy answer to the second, the study found. The first question needn't be that one specifically, of course. You can ask any question that you think the answer will be something that puts the person in a positive mood. If the order of the questions is reversed, it doesn't work. Kahneman theorizes that this is because "happiness" is not an easy or quick assessment, and so the state of mind from the previous question is carried over into answering the second. The emotion aroused by the dating question was still on everyone's mind when the query about general happiness came up… "Happiness these days" is not a natural or an easy assessment. A good answer requires a fair amount of thinking. However, the students who had just been asked about their dating did not need to think hard because they already had in their mind an answer to a related question: how happy they were with their love life. The same pattern is found if a question about the students' relations with their parents or about their finances immediately precedes the question about general happiness. In both cases, satisfaction in the particular domain dominates happiness reports. Any emotionally significant question that alters a person's mood will have the same effect. Eric Barker, who recounts this study, also notes in The Week that the two-question technique could be successfully employed to make people like you. If someone is feeling good about themselves because of what you asked them, they will transfer those feelings towards you. source: http://davennady..com/2013/12/make-people-feel-good-about-themselves.html |
CNN) -- A worker operating a machine in a family workshop in China accidentally cut off his hand -- which doctors were able to save by grafting it onto his lower calf. The worker, Xie Wei, said he was initially unsure if his right hand could be saved, but he thought it was worth a try. The hand went without a blood supply for many hours while Xie searched for a hospital that could perform such a surgery. Xie said that he went to local hospitals near the factory first, but he said they told him they "did not have the skills to help." Eventually he found a hospital about two hours away where doctors believed they could do it. Xie kept his hand in a plastic bag at first, then stored it in a cooler of ice. In total, it took about seven hours to get to a doctor who could help. The doctor, Dr. Tang Juyu, is a specialist in difficult tissue and wound repair cases. Before Xie went into the operation, Tang told him he was optimistic and predicted he would regain the use of his hand, according to Xie. Tang decided the best way to save the hand was to attach it to Xie's calf where there was a good blood supply. The hand would need to stay there until Xie's arm could fully heal. Tang believes there have been about 20 such cases in all of China and all of them have been successful. There is no data, as only case studies have been performed. Tang said in a similar operation in 2004, he grafted a hand onto a patient's belly. That operation was a success. When Xie woke up from the operation he said he was surprised to find his hand on his calf. He says his first reaction at the time was to think it was "unbelievable" and "weird." The hand itself felt warm, he said, but it was numb since no nerves were connected and only blood vessels were attached. His leg felt no different, he said, but was "heavier than usual." After about a month his arm was better healed, and he had another surgery where his hand was reattached. Tang says this second stage of the operation is actually more challenging, but everything went smoothly. Xie has recovered without complications and has been discharged. He is currently resting at home. He said he can twist his wrist to a certain degree, but doesn't have full movement with his fingers, at least not yet. Doctors told him a full recovery for the nerves in his hand should take about six months. Xie said he isn't sure what his future may bring. Today he is concentrating on recovering fully. The factory did pay for his operation, which cost about 300,000 Chinese yuan, or about $49,400. Most of all, Xie said, he is thankful to doctors for "living up to their promise" that they would be able to reattach his hand and make it functional again click link to see photo http://davennady..com/2013/12/doctors-save-hand-by-attaching-it-to.html |
