NLP, Subliminal Messages and the WT Writing Department
by 00DAD ina few years ago i became interested in the subject of neuro-linguistic programming (nlp).
while the core concepts of nlp have been largely discredited as new-age pseudo-science, there is no doubt that there is at least some validity to the idea.
words and images remain the key way we communicate.

Lincoln split logs and had a secretary named Kennedy.
Kennedy split a Lincoln to get a log for his secretary.
Abe Kennedy dropped a log when his secretary split.
Coincidence? I don't think so. -

Ricky Gervais on atheism & some ideas we can relate to
by alecholmesthedetective ini found this article really interesting because of the similar thoughts ricky expresses i could relate to and think are good food for thought irrespect of what you believe at the present time.
http://blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2010/12/19/a-holiday-message-from-ricky-gervais-why-im-an-atheist/.
for example.... people who believe in god dont need proof of his existence, and they certainly dont want evidence to the contrary.

Ricki's case isn't as balanced as it could be on the points brought up.If the point is not wanting harm or misinformation, the basic concepts of God
and atheism don't come with character determinants and there's proof of neither.
Don't be 'centric or intolerant about either since being so has caused some of
the biggest abominations in history. Making either law of the land is institu-
tionalized 'centric intolerance.If you add stipulations beyond that, add liberal not conservative ("proof" of
God, rights for women and LGBT people, evolution, cosmology, etc.)."The existence of God is not subjective. He either exists or he doesn’t. It’s
not a matter of opinion."Forced point. If the suggestions I gave are agreed to. the analogy with the
freedom of subjective reactions to music beyond the math of the music is a good
one, notably with regard to not wanting harm over differing subjective reactions
or misinformation about the known things. Otherwise, the quoted statement veers
toward requiring mathematical proof for subjective reaction to music/mistaken
claims of proof God is or isn't, which are misinformation.Part of understanding a choice to hope or not in a possibility is that harm
isn't justified for a possibility, not a proven, because arbitrary harm is
sadism and murder. It's an ironic point to try to force past in a plea for not
wanting harm."You can have your own opinions. But you can’t have your own facts."
True.

New Update on Higgs Boson makes front page on Huffington Post
by Pterist inby john heilprin 03/14/13 04:29 pm et edt .
geneva it helps solve one of the most fundamental riddles of the universe: how the big bang created something out of nothing 13.7 billion years ago.. in what could go down as one of the great eureka!
moments in physics and win somebody the nobel prize scientists said thursday that after a half-century quest, they are confident they have found a higgs boson, the elusive subatomic speck sometimes called the "god particle.".

The Higgs boson is often referred to as the "God particle" by individuals
outside the scientific community, from the title of a 1993 book on the Higgs
boson and particle physics by Nobel Physics prizewinner and Fermilab director
Leon Lederman. The book was written in the context of failing US government
support for the Superconducting Super Collider, a part-constructed titanic
competitor to the Large Hadron Collider with planned collision energies of 2 ×
20 TeV that was championed by Lederman since its 1983 inception and shut down in
1993; the book sought in part to promote awareness of the significance and need
for such a project in the face of its possible loss of funding.While media use of this term may have contributed to wider awareness and in-
terest, many scientists feel the name is inappropriate since it is sensational
hyperbole and misleads readers; the particle also has nothing to do with God,
leaves open numerous questions in fundamental physics, and does not explain the
ultimate origin of the universe. Higgs, an atheist, was reported to be dis-
pleased and stated in a 2008 interview that he found it "embarrassing" because
it was "the kind of misuse... which I think might offend some people".
Science writer Ian Sample stated in his 2010 book on the search that the nick-
name is "universally hate[d]" by physicists and perhaps the "worst derided" in
the history of physics, but that (according to Lederman) the publisher rejected
all titles mentioning "Higgs" as unimaginative and too unknown.
Lederman explains his choice with a review of the long human search for know-
ledge, using an analogy between the impact of the Higgs field on the fundamental
symmetries at the Big Bang, and the apparent chaos of structures, particles,
forces and interactions that resulted and shaped our present universe, with the
biblical story of Babel in which the primordial single language of early Genesis
was fragmented into many disparate languages and cultures.Today ... we have the standard model, which reduces all of reality to a dozen
or so particles and four forces. ... It's a hard-won simplicity [...and...]
remarkably accurate. But it is also incomplete and, in fact, internally incon-
sistent... This boson is so central to the state of physics today, so crucial to
our final understanding of the structure of matter, yet so elusive, that I have
given it a nickname: the God Particle. Why God Particle? Two reasons. One, the
publisher wouldn't let us call it the Goddamn Particle, though that might be a
more appropriate title, given its villainous nature and the expense it is caus-
ing. And two, there is a connection, of sorts, to another book, a much older
one...
—Leon M. Lederman and Dick Teresi, The God Particle: If the Universe is the
Answer, What is the Question p. 22
Lederman whimsically asks whether the Higgs boson was added just to perplex
and confound those seeking knowledge of the universe, and whether physicists
will be confounded by it as recounted in that story, or ultimately surmount the
challenge and understand "how beautiful is the universe [God has] made".
