13 Things in Science That Do Not Make
Sense. 03/19/2005 02:22 AM

I love checking the RSS feed from the NewScientist.com everyday. They have some great articles and they know how to dumb-down the articles so even I can understand them. Today they have a truly intriguing article on 13 things that do not make sense in the field of science. I can remember many of the incidents but I did not understand the ramifications of what was going on at the time, until now. The article breaks down the incident and the questions it created and the reasons it does not make sense. Great reading for all geeks.

Until now, visitors to the U.K.'s National Museum of Science & Industry (NMSI) could see only a small fraction of their vast collections at any one time. But virtual visitors now have unprecedented access to more than 30,000 objects, digitized and collected into two creatively organized Web sites. The first, www.ingenious.org.uk, offers a fascinating insight into science and contemporary culture, using images, stories, opinion pieces and online debates to explore the many feats of human ingenuity that shape our lives. The second, www.makingthemodernworld .org.uk, is based on the Science Museum's landmark gallery, Making the Modern World. It gives visitors a new way to explore the icons of invention by using animation, dramatic reconstructions and technical explanations to encourage visitors to find out more about the social implications of historical advances in science and technology. Lindsay Sharp, Director of NMSI, comments: "Through these Web sites, we are offering millions of virtual visitors the chance to see thousands of iconic objects that will help improve the understanding of the contribution of science, technology and invention to the material world around us and how they have changed our lives. As you'd expect from one of the world's leading science museums we've exploited the potential of new technology to make sure the experience for visitors is rich and exciting."

How to Make Money Selling Your Body to
Science While You're Still Alive 01/23/2004 02:20 PM
New Canoe University offers a one day course on ways to make money as a human test subject in medical trials, or selling your body after you die. This reminded me of a Loompanics book from a while back called Sell Yourself to Science that Jim Hogshire wrote, which got me to thinking about how Jim was in this incredible article from Harpers about extracting opium from poppies.

http://www.super-sc ience-fair-projects.com/

Today your teacher announced that your school is going to have a science fair and students are responsible for exhibiting their projects. What do you feel? Enthusiastic? Despondent? Dreadful? Fearful? Excited?" This statement opens the Super Science Fair Projects site. Actually, whether student or parent, science fair projects, while great ways to get students actively involved in learning the scientific method and problem solving, can be tough assignments. This site may help you with one of the hardest parts: coming up with an idea. The site does a great job of walking the visitor through the steps needed to plan and implement a project, from Choosing a Topic, the Scientific Method, and writing the Project Report. There are even tips on displaying your project, rehearsing, winning over judges, and what to expect the day of the fair. This is definitely a great tool to tap into when planning a science fair project.[From The NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2003. http://scout.wisc.edu/]

Alberto Gonzales has said that the controversial Justice Department memo from 2002 which laid out presidential authority to allow torture of terrorism suspects was in response to "questions." Well, it turns out, those questions were his. The New York Times reports: "Until now, administration officials have been unwilling to provide details about the role Mr. Gonzales had in the production of the memorandum by the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel. Mr. Gonzales has spoken of the memorandum as a response to questions, without saying that most of the questions were his."
