U.S. Republican congressmen follow the Bible and not the Constitution without knowing the power of God

October 24, 2012

Watch this video. The first homo erectus denies global warming by quoting the Genesis: God made this planet for us, so do not worry. The second alerts evolutionists will go straight to hell, together with embryologist and other scientists.

The view of this people is offensive even towards God.

1) This planet is the place where Adam and Eve were exiled for their ridiculous  sin. I would not be surprised if God would like to sadistically make our life even worst by altering climate and promoting pestilences.

2) Obviously Hell cannot exist for the believer. If God is love with no borders and out of time and full of power, there is no way that a place in his creation could be ruled  by alternative power. God’s creation has no borders: where is the place for Hell? Or is God ruling Hell, too? Well, we can discuss about this. It is clear there is no Evil and no Hell, as there is no place for them in the creation of a loving God. Evil and Hell where created by fanatic religious people to gain power on ignorants.

As you can easily understand, Talibans are not middle East creatures, they directly sit on US congress chairs! May all superstitious (aka ignorant) people annihilate each other and leave this planet to evolved human beings.

God bless French Revolution, I was born in Europe :D


Bruciate gli scienziati della Grandi Rischi in piazza! Basta scienza, viva la veggenza!

October 22, 2012

Plagiati da media e ignoranza, troppi Italiani oggi tripudiano: i colpevoli dei morti del sisma aquilano sono stati alfin trovati! Ecco cosa i sordidi assassini colposi conclusero nella loro lurida commissione, 420 ore prima che il terremoto spezzasse l’Aquila e dintorni:

Prof. Dolce: “[...] si siano registrati picchi di accelerazioni piuttosto alti [...] corrispondono però spettri di risposta di forma stretta.” Colpevole: parla troppo difficile!

Prof. Boschi: “Improbabile che ci sia a breve una scossa come quella del 1703, pur se non si può escludere in maniera assoluta.” Colpevole: non ci fornisce mai una risposta sicura!

Il dott. Selvaggi: “[...] la sequenza in corso sia molto seguita dal Centro Terremoti” Colpevole: topo da laboratorio!

Prof. Barberi: “sia estremamente difficile fare previsione temporali sull’evoluzione dei fenomeni sismici”. Colpevole: non sa prevedere!

Il Prof. Eva: “essendo la zona di L’Aquila sismica, non è possibile affermare che non ci saranno terremoti.” Colpevole: usa le doppie negative!

Il Prof. Calvi: “C’è quindi da attendersi danni alla strutture più sensibili alle accelerazioni, quali quelle a comportamento fragile.” Colpevole: insinua che le case non si reggono in piedi!

Prof. De Bernardinis: “pone la questione sul tipo e entità del danneggiamento che terremoti di questo tipo possono procurare”. Colpevole: si pone domande!

C’e’ chi ricorda che Bertolaso influenzo’ il messaggio della commissione per placare gli animi. Mi chiedo se le analisi degli esperti qui sopra vi sembrano falsamente positive o solamente ragionevoli, anche per controbattere alle dichiarazioni di un unico (!) esperto mondiale italiano che invece prevede i terremoti col gas radon.

PS

The chief executive of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), a non-profit organization which publishes the journal Science, wrote a letter in 2010 to Italian President Giorgio Napolitano calling the charges against the experts’ “unfair and naive”.

PPS

Oh yeah, Italy is now on BBC front page!


Monsanto Roundup and GM maize: new shocking research 2012 found they both cause cancer

September 20, 2012

I heard this news about roundup, GM maize and cancer on Rsi (the Swiss-Italian radio) and I find it online only on “The Grocer” and on the scientific journal that published it . Is it a hoax (the researchers are from The Committee for Research & Independent Information on Genetic Engineering (CRIIGEN)) or no big media want to discuss it??? I am shocked.

The point seems to be that this is the first time rats were analyzed longer than 90 days after the treatment. This reminds me the discussions about aspartame toxicity for human consumption.

UPDATE

Reading the Methods could ring some bells why this research is not discussed on big media: the mock (control) group is made up of 10 rats, are they enough for statistical significance? Hopefully other labs will have the possibility to test the same conditions with more rats. I do not have the capability to judge the statistical method they used, this could be another weak point, due to the low number of mocks. Any statistician willing to help?

If statistics are not good enough, as this kind of rats easily develop tumors with aging, it is difficult to trust the results they published.


Breaking news: the Alien skulls from Serifos!

September 12, 2012

Snorkelling in Serifos, at the prohibitive depth of 6 meters below the sea level, on a sandy bottom adorned with few plants, I found the amazing treasure shown in this post picture.

Different from the familiar round-shaped green/purple sea-urchin skeletons (bottom right), the 14 objects clearly resemble skulls of an ancient race of aliens, probably fallen in the Aegean sea a long time ago (click on the picture to zoom in).

The size of the skulls seems to be related to the age of the individual, the black pattern as well, although sea water is also responsible of the skeleton bleaching.

On the front side, the skulls show a star shaped pattern made of small holes, very possibly the two horizontal series being light sensitive organs, while the two vertical ones still of unknown function.

On the bottom, a hole in the skull, possibly for the contact with a human-like neck bone. On the back (not shown), an elliptical hole of unknown function.

How amazingly surprising is life! If you think these are skeletons of Metalia Spatagus, you are clearly wrong, as they are not reported in the Aegean sea, but only in the tropical indo-pacific ocean.


What is our society development based on?

August 4, 2012

Market? No. On Science, Technology and Oil. The latter soon going to finish, don’t you think it is time to enroll yourself in science and do inspire next generation?

Enjoy.


The Higgs boson for dummies (like me) and some questions for nerds (like you)

July 5, 2012

Matter is made of electrons, protons and neutrons.
Proton and neutrons are made up of quarks: all quarks are “fermions”.
Electrons (charged) and neutrinos (uncharged) are “leptons”

Force is made of bosons, e.g. the boson called photon is the particle “carrying” light and involved in electromagnetic force.

Bosons, leptons and fermions do not require to have mass to exist. However, matter has mass, or no gravity would exist between masses. Also light has mass and is bent by gravity.

So, where do bosons, leptons and fermions get their massess?

The existance of a new boson was recently confirmed by the LHC at Cern: the Higgs boson.

Higgs bosons permeate the universe: the universe is a field of Higgs bosons. When other bosons, leptons and fermions pass through such field of Higgs they differently decelerate depending on their energy, and acquire a mass.

- Without Higgs field, would matter (particle with mass) exist at all?
- Where does the mass of Higgs bosons come from?
- Without Higgs field, what would be the speed of light?
- Are black holes made up of concentration peaks of Higs bosons?
- Is the Higgs field instead constant through the universe?
- Can we pump Higgs bosons like air through a jet engine to travel through space?
- If Higgs bosons have their own mass, do they feel gravity and accumulate close to big masses?
- Without an initial big bang, would bosons, leptons and fermions acquire their masses through the Higgs field?
- If the expansion of the Universe will end, will also matter stop to exist as no particles will hit Higgs bosons?

I have no background but a lot of curiosity :)


We live dark times as we forget what human beings are for

June 10, 2012

It is not by underlying the dark side of humanity that we promote its development. It is not by highlighting human mistakes that we avoid to repeat these mistakes in the future. It is not by ignorantly criticizing the slow pace of human research and advance that we help us to find a faster path.

We, humans, made marvelous things on this Planet and slightly outside of it, more than any other being we know.

Do not hide your sloppiness or laziness in religion, as no God intervention is proven to exist. Do not wait for an afterlife, there is so much to do here. Do not put in other hands what you could personally do to evolve and to let humans evolve. It is not only a question of staying hungry and foolish: our energy has to be focused on the research and preservation of knowledge, its value being, as far as we know, very, very unique in the whole Universe.

Fatti non fummo a viver come bruti, somebody said.

I find the Sagan series from NASA and Carl Sagan “A Personal Voyage” (the post movie is the first episode) extremely moving and inspiring. Thank you, Carl Sagan, for letting us lift our eyes to the infinite ocean surrounding our limited shores.

PS I admit it, I wrote this post after seeing how much energy human beings put in… UEFA 2012.


Vittorio Zincone: tipico Italiano medio che ha in odio la scienza

March 30, 2012

Date una morbosa occhiata alla “intervista” di Zincone a Antonio Ereditato e capirete tutta la spocchiosa strafottenza dell’Italiano medio verso la scienza.

In fondo l’ignoranza e’ il problema maggiore di troppi Italiani. Col fatto di credersi furbi, troppi Italiani pensano di poter pontificare su tutto senza sapere nulla. E’ difficile trovare un Italiano che osi dire: “non lo so, non e’ il mio campo”. Tutti si fanno gli affari altrui, senza sapere neppure muoversi nella propria specialita’. E cosi’, mentre perdono tempo a sfottere gli altri per motivazioni fasulle, non imparano nulla per migliorare se stessi.

I genitori sanno meglio dei maestri, i guidatori meglio delle regole del codice della strada, e anche i Zincone meglio degli Ereditato. Che immonda figura, o Zincone. Persino la De Pasqua avrebbe fatto meglio! Ma che dico: persino Franco Foresta Martin avrebbe organizzato domande migliori! :D Complimenti al Corriere della Sera, carta per avvolgere il pesce serve sempre.


Combinatorial evolution: new crazy paths of adaptation

February 16, 2012

Many of you still probably know that evolution merely acts on our genome sequences. Mutagens have the ability to change the sequence of our genes, resulting in defective proteins which can either lead to disasters like cancer or to positive features like … blond hairs ;)

That’s why you trust GATTACA-like movies or cheap companies sequencing your DNA for 1,000$ – but the story is much more complicated and goes beyond DNA sequences.

It is already known from a few decades that genes can be switched on or off like light bulbs, without the need of altering their sequences. The “switch” is operated by special proteins which clamp DNA and pack it, so that they are physically off or on. But that’s not all, yet.

It’s brand new story that even prions are evolution engines. Yes, prions, those packed fiber-like proteins which, for example, make you crazy like a cow. What was found is that also very-important-proteins, which regulate every protein translation, i.e. control every read out of our genome, have also the ability to “get prionified” and therefore inactivated under some stress conditions.

It’s like if traffic lights got inactivated in rush hours: chaos would rise, but also new ways to reach home. This is exactly what was observed in yeast cells with such prionified very-important-proteins: death, but also very quick new ways of adapatation to stress conditions.

Interesting, isn’t it?  Newly discovered fast and randomized adaptation changes that are driven by… prions! In the picture: cadavers of yeast which did not develop fast enough to survive baking stress :D


We should think about our Planet with more gravity

January 26, 2012

At least depending on where we live. I find this new gravity point of view on our Planet very intriguing. Cold areas: low gravity pull; hot areas: high gravity pull. All measured with a orbiting satellite. Pity no scale is present.

Now some time for science fiction based on this study. Considering that more is the mass in a specific area, higher is gravity, what is that low gravity hole below India? A huge depression in the crust thickness due to a metheorite impact? Or a change in its composition? Do places with vulcanic activites cause more gravity? Or does more gravity promotes vulcano? Do we sense planetary gravity changes with our bodies? Were ancient humans following gravity and therefore crossing Bering towards Americas? Whatever, I like this animation a lot.
