The doors of the ITLADic University swing open once more and I welcome you to another Sunday Service.This is a slightly reduced Service owing to some illness on my part and general overall exhaustion!!
Thankfully it has been a quieter time for ITLADic Science News than recent weeks, but I battle on for the collective good and thus I include links below to this week’s Top 5:
1. The Brain Hides Information From Us To Prevent Mistakes
2. Do We Think That Machines Can Think?
3. Good Golf Players See The Hole Larger Than Poor Players
4. Woman Acquires New Accent After Stroke
5. Investigating The Environmental Origins Of Autism
(Linked to #5): Common Mechanism May Underlie Autism's Seemingly Diverse Mutations
And for the EXTRA section this week I again select a few articles from a wide variety of areas that I know certain students will find of interest and have some interesting views upon.
Perception:
> A Perspective On 3-D Illusions <
(Click “View 3-D Illusions Slide Show”)
Evolutionary Psychology:
> Brain Cells Related To Fear Identified <
Psychology:
> When Grief Goes Beyond The Blues <
Neurology:
> Brain Implant Helps Stroke Victim Speak Again <
Quantum Physics:
> CERN Project: Large Hadron Collider [Interactive Guide] <
(Click on “Enter Interactive” and follow the prompts)
And finally, as a very interesting addition to the Spinning Lady experiment that we have discussed on previous Sunday Services, I include this link which should(!) help those of you who only see her spinning in one direction.
> Spinning Dancer Hacked!! <

I will be available most of Sunday to answer any questions you have on these articles and to discuss the implications within ITLADic Philosophy.
I will place my own interpretation of the articles throughout the day in the comments section.
I hope we can generate as interesting a discussion as we have on previous Sundays and if you haven’t been involved before then you are more than welcome to add your thoughts.
Please place your opinions, questions and observations in the comments section for all to discuss. .

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 210 of 210hey! SM..THANX!
'I for one believe that homosexuality is complex and do not think the "born that way" argument applies to all'..Thank you for saying that.. i thought so too..
SM, i live in a country that loves to push all topics on sexuality under the carpet( whn we r one of the most populated countries in the world ha!)
anyway, one of my bestest friends is a homosexual and i love him for just being HIM! he is a male with the understanding, sensitivity and empathy of a girlfriend..(he gives me wonderful tips on makeup for goddnesss sakes!)
but u know, i always felt that his environment played a very important role in his sexual orientation, we have had talks/arguements on this topic and have never come to any conclusion..maybe u can tell more about it through email.
thank you once again!
Sure, I will do that, Rosh. There has been much controversy and many excellent articles and texts written on both sides of the divide.
I think with the Psychology article about grief that goes onbeyond normal time,ITLAD and your own work may be a cure and something to evoke a response in the eidelon to messages coming from the daemon.
EVERYONE: OH MY!!!
We have Quantum Leaped into a Parallel Comments Box again!!
Apologies for delay in responding but my now traditonal Manic Monday became a Manifold Manic Monday and I only got home towards 11pm.
Anyway, I will add a couple of o comments to those who responded yesterday below:
Jesamyn: Hey Jez, WOW, I must have signed off just as you were signing on!!
Thank you, as ever, for your kind words and I hope you are feeling better this week hun
*gentle hugs*
I'm personally very glad that you found something in the grief article that may be able to help you.
Speak Soon Jez.
Johar: *giggles*
Yeah, Wednesday/Thursday will be fun!
Andrew: Your involvement with the Sunday Service is VITAL to how the whole system operates my friend. I'm glad you enjoyed the 3-D Illusions, and yes the slide show is rather interesting isn't it. Try doing what Johar does and cover one eye at a time while viewing it - see if that alters any perception.
Roshni: Oh yes indeed, you have been a wonderful ITLADic Student during this week's Sunday Service and I thank you for that.
Roshni, SM Kovalinsky, Ed and Johar:
Very interesting comments from all of you on homosexuality, the fluidity of sexuality, the Anima/Animus-Persona balances etc, etc.
I enjoyed reading through your discourse, thank you.
SM Kovalinsky: Susan Marie, my dear, you know I see and read EVERY post.
*smile*
Thank YOU personally for looking after the post and moderating so effectively, you were FABO darling!
*hugs*
