The Huffington Post leaped on the most recent altercation at the Western Wall in Jerusalem caused by the Women of the Wall protesting the Orthodox rules in place there, publishing both a news article and a blog post and then a second news article because Sarah Silverman's sister was one of them. The Huffington POst wanted to make sure you saw this story, in other words.
Israel has a variety of laws in place to protect religious doctrines (whether you agree with them or not), such as that Jews cannot pray on the Temple Mount, but the HPers naturally took this opportunity to attack Israel's status as a democracy. These particular HPers are, of course, nowhere to be found on articles about Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq.
By the way, in the United Kingdom, the law against blasphemy was repealed in 2008, and I didn't say anyone claiming the UK was a theocracy up until that point. Just one example of religious laws still in place in democracies that aren't Israel.

There are more than 1.5 billion people that are using the Internet. This essentially means that at any given time someone somewhere is actively looking for a light fixture. The trick for you is to reach that person who is looking for that light fixture intelligently. Everyone is talking about going online these days, especially in this tough economy. However, very few people talk about what it takes to be online. With all the hype that is going on out there, a lighting showroom owner finds himself/herself lost and often confused.
Too many website design companies using technical jargons that leave the retail shop owners unprotected and less informed about the strategies required to maintain a thriving online business and sustain a brick-and-mortar operation. The fact of the matter is, the Internet market is a growing field that is inevitable in modern business operation. Internet business is an integral component of any business, and its mere existence is a great survival mechanism for that business that faces fiercely competitive forces in an open, cutting edge market.
We are here to explain to you in very simple terms what it means to be online. You can use our language word for word and sit with your internet consultant in your office and have a productive conversation about "online business" and its facts and overcome the unfounded myths that usually surround this subject matter.
E-Commerce has various components to it and each component needs ample and equal attention. Although an e-commerce website may generate money after you close your door at the store each day, it may also require more attention than your brick and mortar operation. Knowing the components of e-commerce will help you allocate appropriate resources and hence get you closer to success.
Demand Generation
This is the most important component of e-commerce. After your website is up, your primary mission is to find ways to generate visitors to your website (aka web traffic). This may seem like putting the cart before the horse, but you truly ought to think about generating traffic way before you assign someone to develop an e-commerce site.
Store Front Design
This is where you build your image; that is, your brand recognition. Your online customer meets you here for the first time. You have to impress him/her and entice him/her to make a purchase after establishing trust. Be very delicate as to how you would like to merchandise your products.
Checkout Process
Accepting payment on your website or having a customer call with their payment methods essentially would mean you are involved in e-commerce. You need to make the customers feel that you are real and can be trusted. Your site must have built-in fraud protection.
Your customer information such as (but not limited to) name, address and credit card number needs to be encrypted while being transmitted online. You need to have an easy-to-use checkout process and must accept VISA, MC, AMEX and Discover cards on your website.
Order Fulfillment
This topic deals with what happens once the order is placed. You will integrate your existing PO, product inventory, white glove delivery and installation into your web order. If your site calls for integration with your inventory management or financial software, by all means, go for it. You must ensure your e-commerce site factors in both the "landed-cost" and the "retail price" in every fixture in order to keep yourself in the black.
Supplier Management
Suppliers need to be managed for your products, credit line, PO and order processing. You also need to be aware of pricing rules set by the manufacturers / suppliers. Keep your eyes on any specials or co-op programs that suppliers run on a periodic basis. Many manufacturers offer a drop ship method that is extremely well suited to e-commerce type business.
Customer Service Management
Whether it is during the visit of your website, purchase or after placement of order, you must have a good customer method to care for your prospects and customer base. Shipping and tracking information along with live support are among some of what a typical ecommerce site will have to be successful.
Cataloging and Content Management
What your Web visitors see is what they will want to buy. Your online products must have visually appealing pictures and descriptions. Rich content sells more. You must also ensure that you have updated products, prices and discontinuations.
You cannot manage what you do not measure. There are numerous tools and reports that you can use to measure items such as conversion ratio, order fulfillment, web traffic, sales and product popularity.

There are few shots more difficult to accomplish than striking a fairway wood from a bunker. Just because the fairway wood has 'fairway' in the title, it doesn't mean it can't be used from the sand. However, because of the club head design of fairway woods and how a club head interacts with the sand, it's a difficult shot to play.
Deciding on whether to attempt the shot depends on a number of factors including technique but also course management. Fairway woods should only be hit from the sand when all the options have been weighed up.
1. Height of bunker lip - Because fairway woods have low lofts when compared to irons, the ball will leave the club face very low. If the golfer is faced with a high bunker lip it will be almost impossible to play a successful shot with the fairway wood. This could be slightly different if the golfer is using a very high loft fairway wood such as 9 wood. In general, the bunker lip should be very low or very far away from the ball.
2. Lie - a bunker shot hit with a fairway wood requires perfect contact with the ball to be successful. The club head must strike the ball first, nipping it off the sand cleanly. If any sand gets caught between the club face and ball it's unlikely the golfer will escape the bunker let alone reach their target. Because of this, the ball must be lying perfectly on the sand, sitting up slightly where the club can make contact with the back of the ball. If there is any sand behind the ball it will be impossible to make a clean contact.
3. Risk versus reward - The first question a golfer should ask when deciding whether to hit the fairway wood from the bunker is 'is it worth the risk?' A purely struck shot would sail from the sand and bring looks of admiration from playing partners. However, a poorly struck ball might not even escape the bunker. Another variable to the equation is what lies between the ball and target? Striking a fairway wood shot from a bunker to a target when trouble lies between is fraught with danger. For example, if the target sits just over a water hazard, heavy rough or more bunkers, a safer option should be considered.
There is nothing stopping a player from using the fairway wood out of a bunker but there are a number of reasons why players should be cautious. However, if the risks outweigh the rewards, players can use the following technique to help ensure the shot is successful.
1. The ball should be just forward of centre in the stance.
2. The feet should be shuffled into the sand slightly for stability.
3. Hold the club a few inches down the handle.
4. Weight should be divided 50/50 on each foot.
5. Swing rhythm should be smooth and slow, it won't help to rush.
6. Players need to 'sweep' through the ball action, nipping it cleanly off the surface.

I've have done some research, and have fondled a few.
Narrowed down to the ones listed above.
Was wondering which ones you folks have, and your opinions on them.
I have deliberately left off the higher priced ones (e.g. Kimber solo and
Sig P238)as I'm not in the market for those.
I've also omitted "mouse guns" and revolvers.
Two of the ones listed below have risen to the top of my "wish list", but just
curious as to your preferences. If there are any I've overlooked, Id be happy
to hear about those, too.

An amiable, diligent coach, the forlorn Italian had just seen his best chance of a first trophy for Chelsea's new boardroom elite dramatically snuffed out by the precocious talent of Jose Reyes.
A goal ahead with 35 minutes left, Ranieri must have felt Chelsea were about to finally demolish Arsenal's half a century of FA Cup supremacy.
No wonder he looked such a downcast figure as he tried to explain their latest demoralising collapse. 'Maybe we lost the plot in the second half,' he said.
Indeed they did - - and for the fourth year running Arsenal were the beneficiaries of their defensive generosity.
Sylvain Wiltord destroyed them in 2001, Ray Parlour and Freddie Ljungberg were the heroes in the 2002 final and Lauren and Wiltord shone in last year's sixth round replay.
But this thunderous 2-1 triumph at Highbury belonged to the young senor from Sevilla. Two goals in five minutes, the first confirming his shooting ability and the second his pace and positioning, demonstrated exactly why Arsene Wenger agreed to pay what could amount to £17million for him.
'The boy is 20 so there is still a lot to come from him,' said the Arsenal coach, trying hard not to sound too self-satisfied. 'He's beginning to feel more comfortable with his team-mates but he doesn't speak the language yet so he's going to need time to adapt.
'It's not easy when you're a youngster joining a big club with so many impressive players. You can see that the timing of his movement has still to be adjusted to that of his team-mates.'
Reyes would not have played, of course, had Thierry Henry been fit. The absence of the Frenchman, resting a foot injury, gave Reyes the chance to make his mark and, just as at the same stage at Old Trafford last season, showed that Arsenal can survive the biggest challenges without Henry.
A peripheral figure for much of a compelling and physically demanding first half, Reyes flitted in and out of the game without seriously troubling William Gallas or John Terry.
Chelsea were the more menacing side in the first half, with Frank Lampard and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink going just wide and Jesper Gronkjaer having a goal wrongly disallowed for offside.
Finally, they got what they deserved when Jens Lehmann's careless clearance was intercepted by Scott Parker. His ball forward found Adrian Mutu, who twisted past Kolo Toure and then hit a crisp shot beyond the dive of the Arsenal goalkeeper in the 41st minute.
Ranieri's half-time talk warned of Arsenal's inevitable response. 'We needed to be compact and tight and I told them that it would be important to score a second goal,' he said.
You need possession to do that and Arsenal allowed them very little in the second half. Chelsea's inability to press the ball as a unit cost them dearly and probably made the difference.
Ranieri admitted as much when he said: 'We made mistakes when we gave Reyes too much room. We must press the ball more quickly, not give him time to look and shoot.'
Parker was the only Chelsea player to get near Reyes as he carried the ball forward in the 56th minute before unleashing a rising drive from 30 yards that flew past Carlo Cudicini. It was a wonderful shot and had a galvanising effect on the whole Arsenal team.
'His first goal gave him a lift,' said Wenger. 'You could see a difference straight away.'
Five minutes later Patrick Vieria, a colossal presence in midfield, slid a pass between two defenders and Reyes went after it like a whippet, clipping his shot past substitute goalkeeper Neil Sullivan, who had just replaced the injured Cudicini.
The FA Cup holders, now serious contenders for a third 'double' under Wenger, were ecstatic.
Suddenly, the sun was streaming down on north London and you sensed the final outcome was inevitable.
Ranieri sent on Eidur Gudjohnsen and Joe Cole but despite much frantic effort Chelsea couldn't break Arsenal. It was a familiar storyline in a longrunning serial dating back to 1947.
What's Arsenal's secret? 'I don't know,' replied Ranieri. 'But I do know we play them again on Saturday.'
And Henry should be back for that one. Life just isn't fair!

Looking For Easy Landscaping Tips? Try These!
When you look at your yard, do you cringe? Do you have even worse terms to describe it? Are neighbors eager to decline your backyard invitations? You do not have to accept living with an ugly yard. Read on to find tips which can help to renew your yard and create a welcome outdoor retreat.
When investigating landscaping options for your property for the first time, consider what tasks you will need professionals to complete. Some specialized landscaping tasks require an arborist, landscape architect, or tree limber who can help you with specific landscaping tasks. Although this is more costly than doing it on your own, you have a better chance at a quality job.
Try to use native plants when landscaping. When landscaping your garden, always try to use trees, shrubs and flowers that are local to your area. Native plants tend to be hardy species, able to thrive in less-than-ideal soil and with less water in even the poorest weather conditions.
While you may be tempted to let ivy grow all over your house, do not let that happen unless you are ready to put a lot of effort into properly maintaining and caring for it. Ivy attracts a lot of bugs, including termites and that may end of greatly costing you in the end.
When you start performing a landscaping project, it is very important to establish a budget first. Certain tools, accessories and live plants can be more costly than you think and can make an impact on your plans. Do your research online to get an approximation of how much it will cost to complete your project.
If you are doing a major landscaping project, think about talking with a landscape architect who can give you a fresh perspective on your idea and design. Professionals can often provide tips that can save you time and money. Even though the hourly cost of a consultation can be about $75, the investment can save you time and money.
Always wear proper safety gear when doing any landscaping projects. This includes wearing good strong gloves to protect your hands. Wear eye protection when using any power saws or tools. And remember to protect your skin from the sun by wearing long-sleeved shirts or a good sun screen lotion and a hat.
Anyone wishing to landscape their property with limited funds should remember that it is not necessary to do everything at once. There's nothing improper with doing a project in steps or phases. You make it easier to get things down right and you budget your money wisely. Create the steps you wish to take and prioritize them according to your desires.
A great way to really make your landscaping stand out is to use flowering trees. This can really add some vibrancy to your landscape as it can add lots of different colors. Consider using these items as a border to your entire landscaping design. When the trees blossom, it will really look great.
As you can see, with the information that you have just read, you can definitely make a difference on how your home looks. Now take this information and experiment with it around your home. Feel free to educate yourself on other ideas, as well. Small simple changes can often have quite an impact.

Right from getting a quote from Matt he was the only choice. The detail he gave when pricing up the job was first rate. He answered all questions I had and offered great advice throughout the quote and the job itself. Weather hampered the job but he still turned up and patiently waited in the van until the rain cleared. Great communication when he was unable to turn up due to persistant rain and gales blowing. I advise all users to use Matt. The cheapest quote and excellent workmanship. Thanks Matt .
Very impressed with work - finally I got someone who was able to diagnose & fix long-standing problem with overflow. Would definitely recommend!!

A hard-hitting report has been sent by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors to Kate Barker, who is conducting an indepth review of housing at the request of the Chancellor and the Deputy Prime Minister.
It points to the massive drop in the level of affordable housing over the past 30 years, making housing availability in the UK much among the worst in
the European Union.
The UK now has an average 10 per cent fewer homes than Germany, Italy and France. RICS chief executive Louis Armstrong said: "A housing underclass is being created and its numbers a include people who traditionally would have been able to purchase their own home.
"RICS believes the situation has arisen due to a continuous erosion
in public subsidy on the building of social housing, and the reduction in
incentives for house-builders".
A spokesman for the ODPM said: "Getting people into decent homes is a key priority."

Buyer BewarePosted Apr 28, 2016 on Hotels
Started out a 1 but finished as a 4. When we arrived and got to our room, we opened the door and felt like I was walking into a dive bar. The smell of smoke was permeating the entire room. When I called to request a different room I was told that I booked a smoking room through the third party vendor and they didn't have any other rooms available. Mind you, it was neat 4pm and there were about 10 cars in the whole parking lot. I explained that my stepdaughter has asthma and cannot stay in a room with smoke. The only way they would be willong to move us if we moved to a king room. However we needed 2 beds. it took a call to the corporate office before they would agree to move us to a non smoking room. I say Buyer Beware because this is the 2nd time I have booked a room where these important details don't appear to be fully disclosed at the time of booking (all I see is the bed sizes and room size) but then when you check in you're told, oh you booked smoking or you booked handicap. Just be sure to read all the fine print and call and verify the booking. once we got moved it was a very nice room and the breakfast in the morning was good.

A great experience. The hotel check-in staff was incredible (Donna). She called to confirm that the room met my standards and if I needed anything. The room was large and a great value. Breakfast was amazing - changed daily. Eggs, fresh fruit, cereals, breads and snacks during the day. Total value for your cash!

Where there is only one room left, there is smoke.Posted Feb 15, 2016 on Hotels
I've stayed in many Hampton hotels, but this is not one of the better ones. I received the last room available. It was a smoking room. I expected some residual odor, but not one that smelled like a live ashtray. To be fair, the hotel staff found a bottle of Febreeze to help, but even after thoroughly hosing down the room - using almost the entire bottle in the process - my clothes still smelled of smoke when I returned home. They should give their smoking rooms a regular deodorizing. The hotel is currently under renovation.

Very Nice HotelPosted Nov 22, 2015
As should be expected from a Hampton this was a very nice hotel. It seems brand new and everything about it is nice and clean. Staff was very nice, except for one older man who was disgruntled when we were locked out of our room. This is a great hotel to stay at if you need to be in Brooksville!

Should we trade Stastny/ROR? Or keep BIG 3 together?

I mentioned that... Since there is a cushion there it could be managed, especially if we moved one of O'Brien or Hunwick.
Originally Posted by

By the 2014-15 season the cap should be back up to 70M and we could either trade D. Jones or use our second compliance buyout on him. So they could give him a chance to turn it around next season, unless someone actually wanted him this off-season in a trade.
If we needed a bit more space during next season one of Hunwick or O'Brien could be moved at that time or during this off-season as well.
I'd love to see us be this active in free-agency, but I have my doubts just like everyone else
. Adding two recent Stanley Cup champions, and another veteran in Streit could do a lot for the locker room environment as well as the actual on ice product.
I also mentioned that I was skeptical they would be that aggressive in free-agency, and was just attempting to prove it's possible without sacrificing our ability to give our core players their raises. I do think it would benefit the team to have a couple Stanley Cup veterans added to the roster though. Unfortunately I don't have very much faith that they will see the value in bringing in veterans who have won in the playoffs recently, especially at the cost of being a cap team now instead of a year or two from now. It's just what I would do considering the continued up and down play of our team and how much of an impact one veteran speaking up had on the teams play as a whole.
Horton & Scuderi are established winners, and could help keep the teams up and down swings to a minimum when combined with Jiggy's voice in the locker room. Just a guess but I would bet Streit would have a good impact on EJ and the rest of our puck movers as well. So we seem to agree a bit, but I'd like to see more done.
It also proves that Stastny at his current cap hit isn't really hurting our future. Now if Stastny stays at 6.6M and O'Reilly jumps to 6.5M... Then I'd say we don't have much choice but to move one of them.
However the Avs can find that out by at least attempting to negotiate extensions for all three centers during this off-season.
(Edit: Scuderi could have a similar impact to Foote in that, maybe he wouldn't play 25 minutes a night but has two Stanley cups (Pitt, LA) is still a solid shutdown guy, and is known to be fairly vocal in the dressing room and with the media.)

The Rush to Tap Myanmar's Energy PromiseBy
Myanmar, also known as Burma, has largely been shunned by the West for most of five decades of military rule that ended last year. Now open for business and shedding sanctions, the cash economy badly needs a working banking system. The population of more than 60 million wants mobile phones, newer cars, and Coca-Colas. Myanmar just hosted a three-day World Economic Forum on East Asia, with executives from multinationals such as General Electric and Unilever in attendance. But no one sector is as critical to Myanmar's growth prospects as energy.
The country has 7.8 trillion cubic feet of proven natural gas reserves, worth about $75 billion at current U.K. benchmark prices. Neighbors India and China covet the stuff. In a recent report, the McKinsey Global Institute estimated that energy and industries such as agriculture need a combined $320 billion through 2030 for Myanmar's economy to pull off 8 percent annual growth.
In April, the government commenced an auction for 30 blocks of offshore gas and oil. Exxon Mobil, France's Total, and Eni are jockeying for positions, and nearly 60 global energy companies want to work with state-owned Myanmar Oil & Gas Enterprise in the exploitation of onshore and offshore fuel. Its gas reserves represent 1.9 percent of known deposits in the Asia-Pacific region, according to the Energy Information Administration—which faults sanctions, poor foreign investment, and regulatory inconsistency for significantly stifling Myanmar's energy output. The nation is ranked 172 of 176 nations in Transparency International's 2012 corruption index.
"If you can get a first-mover advantage, you could be well set for years to come," Melinda Tun, a senior associate at law firm Baker & McKenzie, told Bloomberg News. Myanmar "sits between the two most populous economies in the world."
Though agriculture still dominates the economy, the contribution of energy and mining to gross domestic product are projected to expand to $21.7 billion by 2030, from $8 billion in 2010, according to the McKinsey report. Burma first exported oil in the mid-19th century. It now has 16 energy multinationals working on 17 onshore exploration blocks and 15 exploring or producing in 20 offshore blocks.
Myanmar's whip-lash conversion from pariah economy to foreign direct investment bonanza is one to keep an eye on. If international companies can successfully do business in the opaque and corrupt system, the West will increasingly regard it as a legitimate frontier market alongside the likes of Vietnam and the Philippines. That then opens the door to broader bond and equity issuance and, someday, individual investors being able to participate in Myanmar's big comeback.
Can a Myanmar ETF be too far off?

Bangalore, Jan 7: A 22-year-old from Sahaspur, a remote village in Uttar Pradesh rocked the world with his impressive performance on debut against Pakistan in the third and final ODI at Feroz Shah Kotla on Sunday.
Scorecard; PHOTOS: Team India's thrilling win over Pakistan
With 4 maidens, 23 runs, one wicket off 9 overs Shami Ahmed created a flutter on Sunday as the entire nation was talking only about the talented 22-year-old pacer from Bengal.
It is also the most maiden overs bowled by an Indian bowler on debut as Manoj Prabhajar (1984), Vijay Bharadwaj (1999) and Bhuvaneshwar Kumar (2012) had recorded 3 maidens in their first game.
Interestingly only three bowlers have recorded 5 maidens on their debut - West Indies' Andy Roberts (1975), England's Devon Malcolm(1990), Bermuda's Dwayne Leverock.
Shami Ahmed impressed one and all with his performance on Sunday as he became a star overnight, as India won the third and final ODI against Pakistan at Feroz Shah Kotla.
The 22-year-old Bengal pacer also made a point clear that domestic cricket could produce talented cricketers like him rather than relying on IPL for future stars.
The youngster was signed by Kolkata Knight Riders the fourth edition of IPL in 2011 but has not got an opportunity to play a single IPL match yet.
Wasim Akram, the bowling consultant of KKR spotted his talent during the Kolkata Knight Riders'practice sessions.
The cricketer had not played a first class game, his success in domestic T20 impressed Kolkata Knight Riders to sign him for the fourth edition of IPL. He had picked 14 wickets with the best being 4/24 off 8 matches that prompted KKR to bank on the youngster.
The 22-year-old also holds a record of two 10 wicket hauls in the Ranji Trophy season this year which also paved way for his international debut.

We are 'homo sapiens', and have been for about fifty thousand years. But some of us have progressed and developed a bit more than others during this period.

Quoting some new-age reality-relativist craptrap based on a wishful half-baked god-stuff misinterpretation of QM isn't a good start. I believe that's Paul Davies (1979) that you quoted.
There is nothing non-objective about QM or our one scientific reality. And if one has to invoke such quantum quackery as an excuse to continue to believe in the "UFO" delusion--when it's been made abundantly clear why people make "UFO" reports--then his position is in big trouble.
mmm, humans are animals, and have only gradual differences compared to other mammal animals.
By Don Maor, at Wednesday, July 09, 2014
Ah.....Don Maor makes my point and CDA leans towards it:
They think we're animals or have descended from animals, the Darwinian position.
But that is open to question, and not in the religious realm.
Dealt with at one of our other blogs, a while ago.
By RRRGroup, at Wednesday, July 09, 2014
Mr Chomsky,
The religious bent of your science is showing -- it is the Religion of "Local Reality". Go read up on "Bell's theorem". Local Reality died in 1981. It's not metaphysics. There is on-going experiments in learning to actually use "spooky action at a distance" to actually transmit information... which is of itself kind of strange since the "local reality" believers said that even if "spooky action at a distance" does work, no useful information could be transferred... and they, of course, were wrong.
>> "There is nothing non-objective about QM or [sic] our one [sic] scientific reality. "
Bad form to use a double negative when referring to "objective reality." I'm not certain what you are trying to say when you speak of "scientific reality" when "reality" as described by Science is a moving target.
Yes QM is totally objective regardless of which interpretation you choose... but unfortunately the users of QM are incapable of being anything except subjective because their measurements and observations are relative to their position and equipment. Go re-read the Copenhagen interpretation: "quantum mechanics does not yield a description of an objective reality but deals only with probabilities of observing, or measuring, various aspects of energy quanta, entities that fit neither the classical idea of particles nor the classical idea of waves."
Those folks that cling to "old versions of reality" when experiments have "kicked the can down the road" have serious problems claiming to have the "high ground".. I'm not certain there is [or can be] "One QM interpretation to rule them all" because for most of the interpretations do not violate the experimental observations.
Heinze Pagels [a skeptic by the way] in "The Cosmic Code: Quantum Physics as the Language of Nature" [1981] proposed that idea of a "Quantum Reality Market Place" where all the "interpretations" of QM are true... even the mutually exclusive ones because they are required to define the others...
If you like "mathematical horror" you might go read Tegmark... http://space.mit.edu/home/tegmark/crazy.html --of course I'm sure he'll make your skin crawl.
I doubt very much that there's anything I haven't heard about these subjects, including the MUH, that bears on the issue.
The point was that none of it--especially quantum quackery--is necessary to explain why people make "UFO" reports. We already know very well why people make "UFO" reports, it's described by the PSH.
"Nothing non-objective about QM" says exactly what I mean it to say since I'm referring the lack, the failure of that proposed by quantum quackery.
"Our one scientific reality" is world we share, the totality of facts, the world as it is at any moment, and which is continuously evolving.
"The problem with interpretations of quantum mechanics is that it's all the same mathematical theory, and these interpretations are experimentally indistinguishable. ... This means that even an intellectually honest interpreter ends up writing pseudo-philosophy which is not scientifically rigorous, objective or testable. ... you can get QM to say whatever on earth you want it to say before starting, which only leads to more quantum quackery."
Ah, I see you're one of those-- You quote from the haddiths of the irrational "Skeptic Religion" to support your own version of "Science quackery".
While it may be named the "rational wiki", reading it leaves a bad taste in the mouth because 50% of it is "psycho-social" snobbery and has nothing to do with being rational, intelligent, or scientific.
The wiki you referenced is filled with the weasel words of Egotists pretending to be rational. If an information source cannot clearly make its case without resorting to ad hominum attacks one can be pretty sure the source is just as fair and balanced as certain unnamed cable channels.
Unfortunately, my understanding of the reason some people investigate these things is not on the map of your PSH. Some people observe, question, measure, and actually have hypothesis in regards to the things they observe. They actually do science. My father happened to be one of those. He wasn't an ETHer or a Roswellian.. he thought their "agenda" was not realistic.
I don't think that the ETHers or the Roswellians know much about science... They've certainly had a long enough time to try to do science but they have not. Nor do the Skeptics who show there "wares" here and elsewhere. Most are in it for the fame or fortune or in it for the thrill of the Ego strokes they feel when "putting down the heathens".
It appears that "skepticism" has nothing to do with actual science.
To twist Mr. Fernandez's tag line on its head:
Well, That's Skepticism!
Max Tegmark wrote something which seems to confront the "rigidity" of our skeptical friends. In a paper proposing and defending the idea that the universe is part of a multiverse. In a paper entitled "Shut up and calculate!" he wrote:
"Evolution endowed us with intuition only for those aspects of physics that had survival value for our distant ancestors, such as the parabolic trajectories of flying rocks. Darwin's theory thus makes the testable prediction that whenever we look beyond the human scale, our evolved intuition should break down."
"We have repeatedly tested this prediction, and the results overwhelmingly support it: our intuition breaks down at high speeds, where time slows down; on small scales, where particles can be in two places at once; and at high temperatures, where colliding particles change identity... The point is that if we dismiss seemingly weird theories out of hand, we risk dismissing the correct theory of everything, whatever it may turn out to be."
For the full paper see: http://arxiv.org/pdf/0709.4024v1.pdf
That is the crux of the issue our skeptical friends have. They consider "reality" a "settled issue" which does not allow for unusual events that their intuition of reality is always correct and since it is always correct then any one who perceives something different is a liar, a lunatic, or a criminal selling snake oil.
And yet reality isn't settled and the weirdness is built right in [see Tegmark's examples above]. I suggest that maybe there needs to be an evaluation of a "psycho-Social Hypothesis of the Irrationality of Skeptics".
I realize I am beating a dead horse: Skeptics are [at least in their own minds] never wrong.
Evolution is a fact. It may require further study...but is a monumental truth.
By Don Maor, at Friday, July 11, 2014
Evolution is dicey in some spots, Don, but it's the basis of a book by Lecomte Du Nouy I often recommend to people seeking erudition: Human Destiny.
By RRRGroup, at Friday, July 11, 2014
What Tegmark is saying is that "yes evolution is true-- and it has molded our ability to perceive "reality" in a way "enhance" our ability to "survive"... but the price is that our perceptions are distorted-- the "reality of the skeptic" is not *the full picture of what is real"... So when a skeptic says "That's impossible!" they are in effect admitting their ignorance *and* intransigence to perceive the full scope of the "weirdness" of reality.
By Joel Crook, at Friday, July 11, 2014
Decades ago we would say "Skeptics address the subject, cranks "address" skeptics."
Joel; Disparaging Scientific skepticism and skeptics with phony--and frankly irrational comparisions--isn't making the subject of a social delusion any more real. You're still doing the worthless "little Galileo" act to a dead "close-minded" skeptics straw-man. Skeptics aren't anything like the straw-man you describe. It's particularly amusing that you use a scientist's paper to attack Scientific realists. Don't you think it says quite a lot that this tired routine was deconstructed decades ago?
By zoamchomsky, at Friday, July 11, 2014
Alas Mr. Chomsky I'd love to debate your "fabulist" philosophy of science but I think it would be a waste of both your time as well as mine.
Nature, being what it is, will probably have the last laugh on both of us.
By Joel Crook, at Friday, July 11, 2014
I wasn't named as not having the answers, and I was not labelled as academically illiterate.
I am honoured!
(Time to drop a few names to show I am indeed a literate intellectual.)
I feel my virtuous lack of hardened positions is owing to high "epistemic values," as philosopher of science Michael Ruse terms it. But perhaps I'm just an old-timey Pyrrhonian skeptic, as outlined 2000 years ago by Sextus Empiricus -- the simple soul who takes pleasure in the suspension of judgement, and is comfortable living with doubt. As Gregory Vlastos wrote in Socratic Studies...[etc.]
Disparaging Scientific skepticism and skeptics with phony, and frankly irrational, comparisons isn't making the subject of a social delusion--the abstract and absurd "UFO" idea--any more real.
Joel; There is no debate between the world's scientific realism and Internet contrarian woo. In no way does utterly evidenceless and inconsequential belief in the pulp-fiction "UFO" myth even begin to compete with our world scientific reality.
Ignoring that fact and pretending that there is while making fallacious appeals to ignorance ("anything could be true"), to the philosophy of science (Galileo, Bohr or Kuhn), hypotheticals, conspiracies, reality is relative, and every other tactic in the Internet Woo-Woo Credo, while using sciencey-sounding words like "quantum," "anomaly," "paradigm" and "phenomenon," and quoting scientists as if they support such nonsense, are the hallmarks of contrarian antiscience. It's all mere posturing, worthless excuses, a phony rationale for continued belief in the utterly evidenceless "UFO" delusion.
When it's all so obviously juvenile baloney, why bother?
