Developing a scientific worldview: why it’s hard and what we can do | Culturing Science - biology as relevant to us earthly beings
https://culturingscience.wordpress.com/2010/11/18/developing-a-scientific-worldview-why-its-hard-and-what-we-can-do
Culturing Science – biology as relevant to us earthly beings. Developing a scientific worldview: why it’s hard and what we can do. While performing monotonous, brainless tasks at work, I’ve begun the habit of listening to podcasts. And let my friends tell you: have I been listening to WNYC’s Radiolab. About the theory of relativity and how, well, time is relative. Jad asks the question: “What do you with this information? Text cannot do Radiolab justice; listen to the 2-minute clip below:. When I look at...

http://developingmindsinscience.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 27, 2009. What's on Your Mind? Here is where we start a dialogue about the brain. What is this amazing seat of consciousness, learning, motor control, and just about everything else in humans? How do we study it, harness its impulses, apply our amazing gift for good? How about appreciating what science is beginning to understand in terms of what centers of this 3.5 pound organ control in our bodies? And what implications does that have for understanding human functioning and behavior?

An off-beat festival for ideas, creativity and the lively arts in Washington, D.C., the nation and around the world. Friday, March 15, 2013. March mornings wear amber eyes under. Which I, a flyspeck, am trapped in morning’s. Honey-thickened glaze. I long to fly but my. Wings are congealed, sticky-thick. Winter ebbs, teases with the promise of spring yet-. To-emerge. Green-helmeted buds erupt, setting out. Tentative antennae to one day sprout. Their joy at life. They are frozen in time. Yoga in Context: V...

Washington's Off-Beat Arts: Heartsong
http://dcoffbeatarts.blogspot.com/2014/01/heartsong.html
An off-beat festival for ideas, creativity and the lively arts in Washington, D.C., the nation and around the world. Monday, January 27, 2014. When I leave this body, do not look for me in the things I have owned or worn, for I am not there. Memory may serve as only a dim reminder of the times we have shared together. Songs we sang together (or that you suffered me to sing in your presence), jokes and experiences may live beyond me through you. But I am not there. For Ben, Dana and Ari. All My Love, Mom.

An off-beat festival for ideas, creativity and the lively arts in Washington, D.C., the nation and around the world. Friday, January 11, 2013. No Time like The Present. So tied today are we to the unfolding of our devices, that my young adult children cannot even imagine wearing a watch. Why rely on such an unfashionable accessory when the time is as close as your cell phone or tablet that signal and ring to tweets and texts as your friends and family clocks in? The clock-keeper of the cathedral played a...

Tuesday, March 15, 2011. Training Brains: The Latest Education Trends. A thought provoking blog post by educator Larry Cuban. More intriguing is what we don't know.
