Garbage as green tech...pull my finger!

I am not debating Revelation: this post primarily is to fight ignorance, especially this being "2012" of thriller movie fame.

Honestly, when I say that ancient people had as much fear of the winter solstice as they did a lunar eclipse, when I say that maybe the Mayan people, for whatever reason, stopped making calendars, I get the "how do YOUknow?" as if I'm not "supposed" to. I then tell them to solve the followng problem, then get back with me:

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. McNair as an undergraduate at North Carolina A&T State University (we had the same major: Engineering Physics). I share several post/mentions of him from my physics blog. He was a personal hero of mine:

Quantum Mechanics applied to cloud computing. Nuff said.

A Chinese boy can apparently see better at night than he can during the brightest part of the day, and has "cat-like" eyes. They're calling him the next stage in human evolution...or if proven, an effective hoax. See embed video at the bottom of the page, (once you follow the link above).

Auto-Tune: politics isn't the only thing they do! See "Children of Africa," "Ode to the Brain!" and "Onward to the Edge" (with Neil deGrasse Tyson).

John Johnson is a member of the National Society of Black Physicists and discoverer of the latest exoplanetary system (3 to be precise) orbiting a distant star. Along with Red Tails, something our kids need to know.

While teaching physics at Manor High School, I ran into Gary Millikan, descendent of Robert Millikan of the famous oil drop experiment...

Scientist will attempt to photograph a black hole, supposedly invisible, mind you...

Using plasma physicsto examine the human brain. Way cool!

I post an analysis on Mushin - No Mind and Dark Matter, a cognitive comparision on the thesis of "Becoming Batman" and achieving expertise in any endeavor. It's also the first day of the "Year of the Dragon." Enjoy!

By the application of nanotechnology, scientists can possibly increase the efficiency of this "green tech" solution to our fossil fuel dependency.

The Tuskegee Airman experiment was supposed to fail. It was the pseudo-science of Eugenics as practiced by the military: blacks were not seen as "smart enough" to pilot high performance aircraft in combat. Just as blacks were not seen as "smart enough" to quarterback for an NFL team before Doug Williams.

Whether you support President Obama or Juan Williams, the issue is the same: they, being black aren't "smart enough" to govern a country or ask a presidential candidate a question regarding relating to a black electorate. As of December 2011, the economy is not "great," but it is better than it was:

Red Tails mustbe supported because it is not fiction, it is ignored history that supports a preconceived bias for a certain segment that needs our debasement for their own elevation.

That is why black speculative fiction must be written, purchased, supported. We can - to paraphrase Karl Rove - "create our own realities," not in support of dreamed empires, but in support of our, and our children's esteem.

ABC News: Red Tails movie honors Tuskegee Airmen

Washington Post: Luke Weathers Jr., Tuskegee airman, buried at Arlington as ‘Red Tails’ movie released

WHODATHUNKIT? Call me "human guinea pig."

Seriously, with nano-enhanced technology, scientists are hoping to enhance hearing on the nano-lengh scales. Beyond "Who-ville" it would be cool to listen to what an atom "sounds like."

Lizards and robotics: WHODATHUNKIT?

On the national celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday, you put out the political dog whistle to a South Carolina audience that “blacks should want jobs, not food stamps,” and calling our nation’s first African American president the “food stamp president.” You also disrespected the moderator – Juan Williams – by calling him by his first name (almost like calling him “boy”), when he called you by your former title of “Speaker.” I wonder if you’d been so bold if Herman Cain were still in the race?

On my blog post September 16, 2010, I wrote about poverty, particularly those that had been driven into poverty due to the recession.

One of those people…was me.

I also posted an article from Black Voices regarding the extreme effort college-educated African Americans were putting forth to get jobs with not as demonstrative success as the rest of the country.

That was also…me.

I have a degree in Engineering Physics from North Carolina A and T State University. I worked in a warehouse at UPS with that degree, slinging boxes between the hours of 3 – 9 AM, Monday – Friday making $6.52/hour. Do the math…

And yes, Mr. Gingrich, I went on food stamps…, with a degree in Physics.

I wrote a blog that became a book that described my angst, my self-doubt, my hurt pride, my desire to provide for my family in the manner I’d trained myself in the sciences to provide.

I now work in New York back in the industry I’d left eight years ago, making an income that allows me to provide for that same family…honorably. That was not a government program, sir: that was the Grace of God.

You cannot logically paint a broad brush on any one group’s desire over another to remain on food stamps – your data and political dog whistle is quite inaccurate: “Despite significantly higher participation rates for Blacks and persons of Hispanic origin, 65 percent of all participants were White.” (Census.gov)

I am not running for president, I am the “We the People” you’re running in the GOP primaries to qualify to govern.

Your behavior in this primary process is an abomination to the political process the Founding Fathers – you say you revere – established.

The day after celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. your crass, unprofessional comments demean the station you supposedly “occupy.” Perhaps after your bath, may I suggest soap applied to the orifice in front of the oval called your face? Please be suitably aggressive in application.

I don’t debate, but I do vote! If you were to get the nomination by some stretch of a miracle, you won’t be getting mine.

Using a Star Wars metaphor to talk about Dark Matter.

A lot of things were suggested in Star Trek that have become reality - sliding doors in department stores, I-Pads, cell phones, teleportation and now Magnetic Memory.
