  • History Displays Newton’s Optics and Organic Chemistry?

     The Errors & Animadversions of Honest Isaac Newton by Sheldon Lee Glashow ABSTRACT: Isaac Newton was my childhood hero. Along with Albert Einstein, he one of the greatest scientists ever, but Newton was no saint. He used his position to defame his competitors and rarely credited his colleagues.His arguments were sometimes false and contrived, his…

  • The Physics of Organic Chemistry

    Download a Power Point Presentation about Hera (3.3 MB) It is a hasty entry this morning so by all means this information will not be complete. Familiarity with using spectrographic  processes helps to align the thinking needed in the overview of dealing with the processes of organic chemistry. By no means do I have a…

  • Jim Al-Khalili and the Quantum Robin

     http://youtu.be/jepgOQEvWT0 We’ve known for some time that certain animals can navigate the Earth using it’s magnetic fields, but the methods by which they do this have remained largely unknown. However, an emerging field known as quantum biology is shedding light on this area and suggests that nature maybe taking advantage of quantum mechanics to develop…

  • Quantum Biology

    The frequency of vibration of an object is, among other things, a function of mass: A heavy guitar string vibrates more slowly than a light one and produces a lower tone. These tiny cantilevers vibrate at radio frequencies, in the 1 to 15 megahertz range, and because they are so small to begin with, adding…

  • Our Backyard Chickens

    As you can see the picture is from 2010 so we have had them for a few years now. We have had chickens in the past, but not in as elaborate set up as we have now. As you can see it only took a couple of days. Sort of designed it our selves. This…

  • Black Bear Pays us a Visit

    It was about six o’clock in the morning when I woke up, walked down the hallway to turn on a our water for heating and drinking for our morning coffee. Walking over to our kitchen window I looked out and under some of our larger fir trees I notice this gaffer reaching for bird seed…

  • Higgs Field as a Pheromone?

    I am lead by science. Just so you know at what scale most certain and in this, the analogy ensues. “A Biologist Remembers (1967)1 Karl Ritter von Frisc wrote about his life’s work: The layman may wonder why a biologist is content to devote 50 years of his life to the study of bees and…

  • Smoky Comes to Visit Again

    We built a patio to the one side of the house that allows us to watch the birds feed, and some of these pictures I have shown on this site. We found that quite a variety were coming as long. While the birds still do come, the squirrel population is doing well, as they come…

  • Pauli’s World Clock

    You know it’s as if we struggle to find the deepest patterns in the world, so I am not alone here. It’s as if we were to say that it is indeed the mathematical construct that rules the reality? What would we say then about all the “others things that cover this essence and logic,”…

  • Birds on Their Migrations

    Sandhill Crane(Grus canadensis) On the drive into town today, my wife pointed out these birds in the field above. She went back later, after arriving at home and unloading the building supplies we needed. We have never seen them before. White-breasted Nuthatch (Sitta carolinensis) She is the picture taker in this family and she has…

  • Ouroboros:The Left/Right Brain

    simbolo alquímico (Ouroboros serpent in old Greek alchemical manuscript) The Ouroboros, also spelled Ourorboros, Oroborus, Uroboros or Uroborus (pronounced /ˌjʊəroʊˈbɒrəs/ or /ʊˈrɒbɔrɔs/), is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon swallowing its own tail and forming a circle. It has been used to represent many things over the ages, but it most generally symbolizes…
