Anonymous Coward User ID: 11340266 United States 12/01/2012 11:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The European Organization for Nuclear Research (French: Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire), known as CERN or Cern (; French pronunciation: see History) is an international organization whose purpose is to operate the world's largest particle physics laboratory. Established in 1954, the organization is based in the northwest suburbs of Geneva on the Franco–Swiss border, and has 20 European member states. Quoting: WikipediaThe term CERN is also used to refer to the laboratory, which employs just under 2,400 full-time employees, 1,500 part-time employees, and hosts some 10,000 visiting scientists and engineers, representing 608 universities and research facilities and 113 nationalities. CERN's main function is to provide the particle accelerators and other infrastructure needed for high-energy physics research - as a result, numerous experiments have been constructed at CERN following international collaborations. It is also the birthplace of the World Wide Web. The main site at Meyrin has a large computer centre containing powerful data-processing facilities, primarily for experimental data analysis; because of the need to make these facilities available to researchers elsewhere, it has historically been a major wide area networking hub. There are some good qualities here beyond just the mechanical understanding that CERN aims to understand better. I think at the front of those good qualities is the tremendous amount of teamwork it takes to run such a facility. And the fact the the Internet was born out of CERN sorta gives that flavor of cooperative organization and how it has effected the entire planet. CERN is a very popular and viable group of individuals no doubt, but are they on the right track as far as the accuracy of the understandings that they lend to the populace in regards to what constitutes 'reality'? What's Hector favorite tea? : ) ------ |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 11280549 United States 12/01/2012 11:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Doctor is a title character and the protagonist of the long-running BBC television science fiction series Doctor Who, and has also featured in two cinema feature films and one made-for-television movie, as well as a vast range of spin-off novels, audio dramas and comic strips connected to the series. Quoting: WikipediaTo date, eleven actors have played the role in the television series, with continuity being maintained by the ability of the character's species to regenerate. Several other actors have played the character on stage and film, in audio dramas, and in occasional special episodes of the series. The character's enduring popularity led the Daily Telegraph to dub him "Britain's favourite alien". The Doctor, in his eleventh incarnation, is currently played by Matt Smith, who took on the role in January 2010 and became the first Doctor to be nominated for a BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role in 2011. You mean this guy(s)? Growing up I had a couple of friends who moved here from England and they would always watch Dr. Who after school. I think the show itself was unlike anything that was available at the time with the closest thing maybe being 'Land of the Lost' in terms of being uniquely imaginative in its creation and premise. It definitely had an impact on my young and impressionable mind. ------ |

We look human, but who we are inside is much different, much older, far more experienced. We live in a multilayered, multiparalleled, multidimensional multiverse, and there's an infinite number of each one of us spread across each possible reality. And when you die, another you is reincarnated shortly afterwards...it is still you inside, while a different person as well. |

In terms of sharing meaning through artistry, who else has had a bigger impact on the footprint of how that is accomplished than the Fab Four? Music had become the most popular from of artistry in the 20th century and I think that is still the case today. So I don't think that it's any coincidence, that these guys challenged Jesus is terms of popularity. But I don't see it as a better than this or that kind of thing as it was portrayed in the media back in the '60's. To me the rise of the Beatles is more of a complimentary reprisal of the rise of Jesus. : ) [link to youtu.be] ------ Lennon went Commie / Harrison went hippie...the other 2 did not. Not much common ground there. Yet, the impact they all had in musical expression still reverberates to this day. ------ |

Her publication of the Seth texts, known as the "Seth Material", established her as one of the preeminent figures in the world of paranormal phenomena. The Yale University Library Manuscripts and Archives maintains a collection entitled Jane Roberts Papers (MS 1090), which documents the career and personal life of Jane Roberts, including journals, poetry, correspondence, audio and video recordings and other materials donated after her death by Roberts' husband and other individuals and organizations.
