Powers of the Human Brain A Daily Galaxy post last year featured the built-in neural process of forgetting, which discussed why the average human brain is equipped with the ability to filter through seemingly irrelevant details. While the average person may not have vast memory resources, it appears to be an evolutionary trade-off that allows the majority of us to focus on the most relevant facts. However, some of the most incredible minds on Earth lack this ability to filter irrelevant facts, or perhaps it is more accurate to say that to a savant, the irrelevant IS relevant, and incredibly so. Somehow their brains are able to store and access incredible loads of information, even perceiving and relating to this information in an entirely different way.

For Your Brain
Do you face a mid-afternoon lull that even a double espresso cannot break? Is jet lag the bane of your life, or does that pile of revision seem insurmountable? Or perhaps you're just fed up yawning your way out of the pub at 9.30pm. Whether modern life leaves you struggling to keep up or just totally exhausted, the answer could be as simple as popping a pill. Using drugs to improve performance in sport is nothing new – expect doping to be a hot topic at this summer's Beijing Olympics – but what about pills that do nothing to enhance biceps, glutes, or abs, and instead target the body's most powerful "muscle" – the brain? The idea that pills could boost memory or allow weary workers to put in 24-hour shifts evokes the dystopia of Aldous Huxley's 1932 science-fiction novel Brave New World, in which humanity depends on a government-prescribed "happy" drug called Soma. Some scientists are warning that a generation of artificially enhanced thinkers could soon become science-fact, as an increasing number of people, from stockbrokers and soldiers to students and shelf-stackers, look for something more effective than caffeine to boost performance.

Challenge Proves Hypnosis Can Help You Lose Weight As this method of weight loss has grown in popularity a lot of the popular media has picked up on its great effects. Weight problems are a matter of great concern for us as a nation after all. So, it’s no great surprise to see hypnotherapy regularly mentioned on TV as a tried and tested solution for sustained weight loss. Recently, for example, Dateline NBC followed 6 people who were due to attend their high school reunion. It was their 25th anniversary and they had 10 months to achieve their goals – each of them had to want to lose a set minimum amount of weight and they all had to be willing to try a different method of weight loss. This was designed to show just how well (or badly!) each weight loss solution might work. Top

Luckily, there are a few ways you can make yourself seem smarter with a minimum of effort. This is a list of the ten best tips for appearing smarter. Subliminal Messages Make Us Work Harder Bad
news for hard pressed workers:
a subliminal "pep talk"
can make people work harder,
even though they do not realise
it. Flashing
up motivating words for an instant
on a screen can make people
try more, according to Prof
Henk Aarts of Utrecht University,
Netherlands. The professor is using this method to study human limits, for instance to uncover the true abilities of an athlete. "I am interested in what the mind can do for us, without us knowing it." How

Rupert Sheldrake calls this the Morphogenetic Field. Karl Jung called it Collective Unconsciousness. Jose Silva found a practical method of evoking and controlling this marvelous human ability at will. The technique, which is amazingly simple, has been developed over the years but to this day more than 99% of the population are unaware of it. 7 Questions No One Can Answer By
Michael Hanlon Put yourself in the shoes of our ancestors, 3,000 years ago, and look around you. Raise your eyes towards that big, bright disc in the sky which goes up and down, once a day. What is it, what causes it to shine? No idea. No idea what goes on inside the body, either. Our forebears' ignorance was profound. Today, of course, we know what the sun is, and exactly how our bodies work. Science seems to have answered all the big questions. And yet, maybe we shouldn't be so cocky. For just as we have solved a hundred riddles about the natural world, so a thousand more have come to take their place. That is why, in a new book, I argue that though many scientists think we are on the verge of knowing everything, they are wrong. Here are some of the most intriguing questions science has not yet answered or, in some cases, even really addressed. 7 Principles of a 'Shapeable' Universe By
Christopher
Westra The foundations of quantum mechanics were established during the first half of the twentieth century by Werner Heisenberg, Max Planck, Louis de Broglie, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr, Erwin Schrödinger, Max Born, John von Neumann, Paul Dirac, Wolfgang Pauli and others. In this article I don't present the math of quantum physics, but the meanings, which is what we really want anyway. Go ahead and study the authors and scientists above if you wish, as your time allows. You will learn from them, but here is a streamlined version. More
