Mathematical secrets of ancient tablet unlocked after nearly a century of study

Original Post: www.theguardian.com Dating from 1,000 years before Pythagoras’s theorem, the Babylonian clay tablet is a trigonometric table more accurate than any today, say researchers Mathematician Dr Daniel Mansfield with the Plimpton 322 tablet.

The 3,700-year-old broken clay tablet survives in the collections of Columbia University, and scientists now believe they have cracked its…

Perseid Meteor Shower 2017: How, When and Where to Watch the Year’s Best Cosmic Light Show

Perseid Meteor Shower 2017: How, When and Where to Watch the Year's Best Cosmic Light Show By Hannah Osborne On 8/8/17 at 10:54 AM Close Tech & Science NASA meteor shower perseids 2017 The Perseid meteor shower, one of the best shooting star displays of the year, is set to peak on August 12. It is expected to produce up to 150 meteors per hour and will be visible across the Northern Hemisphere. The best time to watch the shower is late on August 12, or early the following morning. Stargazers hoping to watch the event should find an area away from light pollution and get settled in a comfortable position, allowing about half an hour for their eyes to acclimatize to the dark. Alternatively, a live broadcast of the shower will be shown via the Slooh website on August 12 from 8 p.m. Eastern time. Astronomers will discuss the…

Neuroscience Reveals What Fasting Does To The Brain (And Why Big Pharma and the Food Industry Won’t Study It)

by ideapod | May 8, 2017 | Mind & Brain | I came across this TEDx talk given by Mark Mattson, the current Chief of the Laboratory of Neuroscience at the National Institute on Aging. It presents some fascinating details about fasting and why it isn’t as popular as it should be. Many research studies are showing its benefits. This article by Authority Nutrition highlights 10 evidence-based health benefits of fasting that studies have found. These include weight loss, lower blood pressure and reduced cholesterol. But the real interesting question is, why won’t the pharmaceutical industry study it? Here is a transcript of a section of Mark Mattson’s talk which hints at these questions: “Why is it that the normal diet is three meals a day plus snacks? It isn’t that it’s the healthiest eating pattern, now that’s my opinion but I think there is a lot of evidence to…

Chemtrails, Nanoaluminum and Neurodegenerative and Neurodevelopmental Effects By Russell L. Blaylock, M.D. Source: www.consciouslifenews.com | Original Post Date: July 7, 2013 The Internet is littered with stories of “chemtrails” and geoengineering to combat “global warming” and until recently I took these stories with a grain of salt. One of the main reasons for my skepticism was that I rarely saw what they were describing in the skies. But over the past several years I have notice a great number of these trails and I have to admit they are not like the contrails I grew up seeing in the skies. They are extensive, quite broad, are laid in a definite pattern and slowly evolve into artificial clouds. Of particular concern is that there are now so many ­dozens every day are littering the skies. My major concern is that there is evidence that they are spraying tons of nanosized aluminum…
