Sustained Quantum Information Processing Demonstrated - (USA)
Raising prospects for building a practical quantum computer, physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have demonstrated sustained, reliable information processing operations on electrically charged atoms (ions). The new work, described in the August 6 issue of Science Express,* overcomes significant hurdles in scaling up ion-trapping technology from small demonstrations to larger quantum processors. In the new demonstration, NIST researchers repeatedly performed

A Peaceful Solution Monique “Amalphi” Claus - (USA)
Click here to view the embedded video. Monique “Amalphi” Claus shows her keen eye and wonderful graphic style in her video illustration of “A Peaceful Solution.” We have previously used her art as lead images to our ‘Family Farms Pulled Us Out of the Great Depression’ and ‘Seek Peace’ articles. The actions of Christianists in supporting and even fighting in foreign wars of aggression immediately brings the whole of mainstream Christianism into question. The supposedly Christianist United State

What is the purpose of homework? - (USA)
What is the purpose of homework? Why do so many kids suffer from homework anxiety? Why do we teachers assign so much homework? Last year, one of my favorite students' father wrote all the teachers a note through our online communication system. The note went something like this (all in capital letters): "Why do you teachers assign so much homework? There is no need for my daughter to do 5h of homework every night. She stays up every night until very late and then can't concentrate in school.

Commonsense rules By Mark, Saturday 29 November 2008 at; 11:21 :: Journalism From Guardian's Cif belief... Jim al-Khalili believes that scientists should do more than simply communicate the facts. He argues they should also combat the culture that leads some to believe in creationism and others to spend millions of pounds on homeopathic remedies. The light of rationalism must be kept shining brightly, he wrote on these pages. Who would deny that? Except that I suspect something more subtle

SHORT FICTION: Paying It Forward - (USA)
by Michael A. Burstein Analog, September 2003 Nominee, 2004 Hugo Award for Best Short Story I’m dying. No one knows it yet. Having never married, I have no family to mourn my passing. I do have my fans, who would probably turn out in droves to say farewell if I had chosen to let them know in advance. But in the twilight of my time, I want to face this final passage alone. Of course, I’m not completely alone. I still have my mentor, Carl Lambclear. I’ll email him tonight, and he’ll email m

Review: 'The Daddy Machine' @ Celebration Theatre - (USA)
The unassuming pleasures of "The Daddy Machine" at Celebration Theatre go beyond its kicky staging and deft performers. This sweetly wacky musical, based on Johnny Valentine’s book about two kids with lesbian moms who get more fathers than they counted on from the title device, avoids talking down to children or talking at adults. "It’s All Good," sings Stonewall (Joe Souza), the family dog, cavorting with his chew toys before designer Alexandra Smith’s set, which sports a festooned cardboard

TED | Talks | Clifford Stoll: 18 minutes with an agile mind (video) - (USA)
TED Talks <a href="/speakers/view/id/213" target="_blank">Clifford Stoll</a> could talk about the atmosphere of Jupiter. Or hunting KGB hackers. Or Klein bottles, computers in classrooms, the future. But he's not going to. Which is fine, because it would be criminal to confine a man with interests as multifarious as Stoll's to give a talk on any one topic. Instead, he simply captivates his audience with a wildly energetic sprinkling of anecdotes, observations, asides -- and even a science experiment. After all, by his own definition, he's a scientist: "Once I do something, I want to do something else."

Learn Science With the Best Online Science Tutors - (USA)
When we talk about science, two basics come in our mind: theory and experiment. To know and interpret phenomena, you should involve the theory in your mind. Without understand theory of science you can not do any experiment. Human can get a lot of information from the science. Science can introduce us about certain theory that arranges something. By the science human can control or explore something. Science is a very difficult subject which requires lots of concentration. Some concepts
