Problem, how do you get children, especially minority children to read? Not sure the best method, but this video running on Black Entertainment Television that teaches kids to read "Not a sports page, not a magazine, but a book n****r, a f**kin’ book n****r" is probably not it. picked by 2manyusernames 2 years ago

A $205 million upgrade will allow a laser-wielding observatory to monitor tens of thousands of galaxies for mysterious gravitational waves. Leading investigators are confident that the Advanced LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatories) Project will be able for the first time to detect gravitational waves from neutron stars and black holes, as predicted by Einstein's theory of ge... read full post picked by AutumnLotus 2 years ago

A brain isn't born fully organized. It builds its abilities through experience, making physical connections between neurons and organizing circuits to store and retrieve information in milliseconds for years afterwards. picked by AutumnLotus 1 year ago

Being creative or artistic doesn’t mean you know how to draw or play an instrument. Being creative is a way of thinking, a way of viewing the world.
Creative people use the RIGHT side of their brains more than the LEFT. Take the test and find out if your brain is RIGHT for a creative career. picked by ogri2003 2 years ago

Researchers have discovered that whether someone is a 'people-person' may depend on the structure of their brain: the greater the concentration of brain tissue in certain parts of the brain, the more likely they are to be a warm, sentimental person. picked by karenben 6 months ago

At 99.997% of the speed of light, these waves generate electrical fields of billions of electron volts in just a few meters. This means that table-top particle accelerators might be possible, which in turn offers the promise that R&D and medical applications of accelerators (which at present are miles long) might be more readily available. picked by Fanatic 3 years ago

Radiotherapy used to treat brain tumors may lead to a decline in mental function many years down the line, say Dutch researchers.

A study of 65 patients, 12 years after they were treated, found those who had radiotherapy were more likely to have problems with memory and attention.
