How To Read and Interpret Body Language: A Quick Guide
Jun 26, 9:48pm    (3 reviews)  psychology, sexuality, sociology, self-help, how-to  http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-read...

Interesting, but there's really only two types of body signals to be concerned with:
1) The threat display
2) Presenting behavior

Everything else is just the veneer of civilization over our animal instincts :-)

Its amazing what filmmakers can do with real locations.  Last year they shot a Sandra Bullock movie up on the North Shore, it was a stand in for Alaska...which seems a bit of a stretch.  But I guess it worked.

Nazi zombies, sex, gore and dark humor.  Looks like a fun ride.

My only complaint: ZOMBIES DON'T RUN!

Sharp's New LED Light Bulb Features Adjustable Brightness, Remote Control...

This might seem like just another cool new product.  But LED's use 50-80% less energy than standard incandescent lights and last 10x longer.  And they have a lot less mercury and other toxic materials in them.
If all lights in the world were switched to LED's, the reductions in energy consumption and green house gasses would significant.

Two factors have been holding back widespread adoption of LED's: cost and the quality of light (the early LED's produced a very harsh,unflattering light).  But the quality issue has been addressed.  As for cost, if Pres. Obama mandated that all Federal buildings switch to LED's within 3 years and banned the use of incandescents within 5 years, the costs would plummet.

Another excellent speech.  This issue could be the defining one of his presidency.  HUGE money is arrayed against him: the AMA, the pharmaceutical companies, the insurance industry.  But public opinion is still on his side-so many of us have health care horror stories or know someone who does.  He could very well win this fight.

Lex Luthor should get some of the bailout money, his schemes to defeat Superman bring a lot of jobs to the community.
