"On the tractor through the fields, driving round and around the Arc de Triomphe, eye-to-eye with the French gendarmerie, waltzing with a eighty-year old Frenchman and his chicken, smoking a cigarette with an Arabic sheik in his limousine on the camping in Bois du Boulogne, and bumping into a legion of about 400 children on 25 tractors.."

Manon Ossevoort is a 28 year old Dutch actress travelling by tractor from the Netherlands, through the Balkans, down through Africa to Cape Horn, then by boat to the Antarctic, collecting dreams (written on pieces of paper by people she meets). She is performing her theater show 'DOEN' (Do It!) in some post conflict countries on her way. She is raising money for War Child.

By the end of April 2006 she had travelled right down through Egypt and Sudan, crossed into Ethiopia and then reached the border with Kenya. She had picked up a little dog, which is travelling with her. Her plan is to travel through northern Kenya and into Uganda, before proceeding southwards.

Goliath Expedition
The Goliath Expedition is Bushby's attempt to walk around the world "with unbroken footsteps", from Punta Arenas, Chile, to his home in Hull, England. He began his journey in November 1, 1998 and expects to finish it by 2009, then having walked over 36,000 miles.

In March 2006, Bushby and French adventurer Dimitri Kieffer crossed the Bering Strait on foot, walking across a frozen 56 mile section in 15 days. They were detained by Russian border troop officers while they were crossing the Russian border near the Chukotkan village of Uelen, for not entering Russia at a correct port-of-entry. They were threatened to be banned from Russia, which would stop the journey. It was announced on May 5, 2006, that the Russian appeal court had upheld Bushby's application and his walk will continue. This is reported to be the result of consultation between John Prescott, the British Deputy Prime Minister, and Roman Abramovich, the Governor of Chukotka (and owner of the British football club Chelsea F.C.).

The A-Team was a hit TV show from the 80s. They were a former crack commando unit who fought during the Vietnam War. Nearing the end of the war they were wrongly arrested for robbing the Bank of Hanoi. After being trialed they escaped from a maximum security prison.

In the years that followed the A-Team were on the run from numerous military pursuers. During this time the team helped out victimised people in America and beyond, usually for very little money. Make your own A-Team episode.

The show ran for five seasons on the NBC television network, from January 23, 1983, to December 30, 1986 (with one additional, previously unbroadcast episode popping up on March 8, 1987), with a total of 98 episodes. It has achieved cult status through heavy US syndication and enjoyed a brief revival in the 1990s when re-runs were shown in the United Kingdom. As of 2006 the show is in syndication on Sleuth & TV Land. Also currently each season is shown in progression in a recurring cycle on the UK satellite channel UKTV Gold, with an episode shown daily.

Master Degree

2006-05-21T11:52:00.000+02:00

A master's degree is an academic degree usually awarded for completion of a postgraduate or graduate course of one to three years in duration.
In the United Kingdom it is sometimes awarded for an undergraduate student whose final year consists of higher-level courses and a major research project. The ancient universities of Scotland (Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow and St Andrews) award an MA (Master of Arts) as their normal undergraduate degree after four years of study in Arts, Humanities or Social Sciences. In the recently standardized European system of higher education diplomas, it corresponds to a two-year graduate program to be entered after three years of undergraduate studies and in preparation for either high-qualification employment or for doctoral studies.

Easter Eggs

2006-04-15T11:21:00.000+02:00

Easter eggs, also known as Spring eggs in the United States, are specially decorated eggs given out to celebrate the Easter holiday or springtime. The oldest tradition is to use dyed and painted chicken eggs, but a modern custom is to substitute eggs made from chocolate, or plastic eggs filled with candy such as jellybeans. Candy Easter eggs can be any form of confectionery such as hollow chocolate eggs wrapped in brightly-colored foil. Some are delicately constructed of spun sugar and pastry decoration techniques. The ubiquitous jelly egg or jellybean is made from sugar-coated pectin candy. These are often hidden, supposedly by the Easter Bunny, for children to find on Easter morning. Decorated eggs are much older than Easter, and both eggs and rabbits are age-old fertility symbols. The Passover Seder service uses a hard-cooked egg flavored with salt water as a symbol both of new life and the Temple service in Jerusalem. The Jewish tradition may have come from earlier Roman Spring feasts.

Easter Egg as a Symbol
Of all the symbols associated with Easter the egg, the symbol of fertility and new life, is the most identifiable. The customs and traditions of using eggs have been associated with Easter for centuries. Originally Easter eggs were painted with bright colors to represent the sunlight of spring and were used in Easter-egg rolling contests or given as gifts. After they were colored and etched with various designs the eggs were exchanged by lovers and romantic admirers, much the same as valentines. In medieval time eggs were traditionally given at Easter to the servants. In Germany eggs were given to children along with other Easter gifts.
Launch

History of Easter Egg
The egg is nature's perfect package. It has, during the span of history, represented mystery, magic, medicine, food and omen. It is the universal symbol of Easter celebrations throughout the world and has been dyed, painted, adorned and embellished in the celebration of its special symbolism.

Swords

2006-04-11T13:05:00.000+02:00

Sword (from Old English sweord, cognate to Old High German swert, literally "wounding tool" from a Proto-Indo-European root *swer- "to wound, to hurt") is a term for a long-edged, bladed weapon, consisting in its most fundamental design of a blade, usually with two edges for striking and cutting, a point for thrusting, and a hilt for gripping. The basic intent and physics of swordsmanship remain fairly constant, but the actual techniques vary between cultures and periods as a result of the differences in blade design and purpose. The names given to many swords in mythology, literature, and history reflect the high prestige of the weapon.

Illusion

2006-04-10T15:35:00.000+02:00

An illusion is a distortion of a sensory perception. Each of the human senses can be deceived by illusions, but visual illusions are the most well known. Some illusions are subjective; different people may experience an illusion differently, or not at all.
An optical illusion is characterized by visually perceived images that are deceptive or misleading. Information gathered by the eye is processed by the brain to give a perception that does not tally with a physical measurement of the stimulus source. A conventional assumption is that there are physiological illusions that occur naturally and cognitive illusions that can be demonstrated by specific visual tricks that apparently show particular assumptions in the human perceptual system

Chess: Brain, Blood and Fun

2006-04-08T14:41:00.000+02:00

Chess is an abstract strategy board game for two players. It is played on a square board of eight rows (called ranks) and eight columns (called files), giving 64 squares of alternating color, light and dark, with each player having a light square at the near-right corner when facing the board. Each player begins the game with 16 pieces which can move in defined directions (and in some instances, limited range) and can remove other pieces from the board: each player's pieces comprise eight pawns, two knights, two bishops, two rooks, one queen and one king. All pieces can remove opponent's pieces by landing on the space they occupy. One player controls the white pieces and the other player controls the black pieces; the player that controls white is always the first player to move. In chess, when a player's king is directly threatened with capture by one or more of the opponent's pieces, the player is said to be in check. When in check, only moves that can evade check, block check, or take the offending piece are permitted. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent; this occurs when the opponent's king is in check, and no move can be made that would prevent it.

Vampires

2006-04-07T12:12:00.000+02:00

Vampires are mythical or folkloric creatures, typically held to be the re-animated corpses of human beings and said to subsist on human and/or animal blood (hematophagy), often having unnatural powers, heightened bodily functions, and/or the ability to physically transform. Some cultures have myths of non-human vampires, such as demons or animals like bats, dogs, and spiders. Vampires are often described as having a variety of additional powers and character traits, extremely variable in different traditions, and are a frequent subject of folklore, cinema, and contemporary fiction. Vampirism is the practice of drinking blood from a person/animal. Vampires are said to mainly bite the victim's neck, extracting the blood from the carotid artery. In folklore and popular culture, the term generally refers to a belief that one can gain supernatural powers by drinking human blood. The historical practice of vampirism can generally be considered a more specific and less commonly occurring form of cannibalism. The consumption of another's blood (and/or flesh) has been used as a tactic of psychological warfare intended to terrorize the enemy, and it can be used to reflect various spiritual beliefs.

Martial Arts

2006-04-06T13:10:00.000+02:00

A martial art, often referred to as a fighting system, is a system of codified practices and traditions of training for combat, usually (but not always) without the use of guns and other modern weapons. Today, people study martial arts for various reasons including sport, fitness, self-defense, self-cultivation (meditation), mental discipline and character development, and self-confidence. The therm "martial art" does not mean only a way of fighting, but it can be interpreted as a life philosophy. A real martial artist should find in his own martial art a way by 'honestly expressing himself'. The most important example of Martial Artist of the 20th century is Bruce Lee. Through his films he made occidental people know martial arts fascination.
"With nothing but his hands, feet and a lot of attitude, he turned the little guy into a tough guy." -- Time

The Time
"In an America where the Chinese were still stereotyped as meek house servants and railroad workers, Bruce Lee was all steely sinew, threatening stare and cocky, pointed finger — a Clark Kent who didn't need to change outfits. He was the redeemer, not only for the Chinese but for all the geeks and dorks and pimpled teenage masses that washed up at the theaters to see his action movies. He was David, with spin-kicks and flying leaps more captivating than any slingshot".

Bruce Lee Divine Wind
In a lifetime comprising a mere 32 years, Bruce Lee revolutionized the world of martial arts through his profound teachings and philosophy, and created a legacy through his work in motion pictures, that has evolved into a Legend. Thought by many to be the ‘Greatest martial artist of the 20th Century’, Bruce Lee didn't believe in classic styles of fighting, like judo or Karate, but he proposed a new style, a style with no rules, a style with which a martial artist could express himself, "totally and completely".

Alice

2006-04-05T17:53:00.000+02:00

The most common perspective on Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is that it is a whimsical fantasy. However, there is disagreement with this perspective. To a number of people, the book does not characterize whim and fantasy, but rather horror and self-sustaining Kafkesque insanity. The comedy of the book, while clearly visible, does not mitigate the fact, but rather causes it to stand out by perverse contrast. Taken from this perspective, the novel (as well as Through the Looking-Glass) is a sinister, pernicious world characterized by persons who exist fully by a self-sustaining logic that exists without reference to outside influence, including the influence of a sane, rational, and moral mind. By this perspective, at its essence, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is not a dream but a surreal nightmare involving loss of control, inability to communicate or reason, rampant uncontrolled change of one's self and everything around, and a total inability to gain any foundation in the world.

Big Heads

The front (ventrum) of the head, where the eyes, ears, and mouth are located, is called the face.
The area above the eyes is called the forehead (the front of the head). Below the mouth is the chin.
Younger aged humans and some older humans' heads have a continuously growing layer of hair covering the head.
Most females of the human race do not lose this covering during the aging process, however some males can lose their head hair as they grow older.

Soccer history

2006-04-04T09:29:00.002+02:00

The contemporary history of football spans more than 100 years. It all began in 1863 in England, when rugby football and association football branched off on their different courses and the world's first football association was founded - The Football Association in England. Both forms of football stemmed from a common root and both have a long and intricately branched ancestral tree. Their early history reveals at least half a dozen different games, varying to different degrees and to which the historical development of football is related and has actually been traced back. Whether this can be justified in some instances is disputable. Nevertheless, the fact remains that playing a ball with the feet has been going on for thousands of years and there is absolutely no reason to believe that it is an aberration of the more "natural" form of playing a ball with the hands.

Maps of the World

2006-04-01T10:40:00.000+02:00

Jorge Luis Borges is said to have remarked that the only accurate representation of reality would be reality itself; by extension, the only accurate map of the Earth would be the exact shape and size of the Earth itself. Since we cannot construct such a map, we accept a certain level of inaccuracy from our maps, conceding, for instance, that individual buildings need not be marked on a city map, or that fluctuations in elevations will remain unmarked until they deviate by more than a set number of feet from a pre-established elevation. As Borges implied, we must expect some inaccuracies of this kind. But even beyond this simple separation of reality and representation, our society functions in relative naïveté about the accuracy of maps. Most of us blindly accept the borders on our maps, for example, but if you ask an Indian and a Pakistani to draw the boundaries of Kashmir on a blank map of the Indian subcontinent you will almost surely get two very different maps (From Modern Medieval Map Myths: The Flat World, Ancient Sea-Kings, and Dragons, by Michael Livingston)

Medieval World Maps
In this are listed the medieval cartographic images in the wonderful Henry Davis's collection, such as the Macrobian (A.D. 400), the Al-lstakhri (A.D. 934), and the Polychronicon (A.D. 1350)

The Apollo Project

2006-03-31T10:22:00.000+02:00

Project Apollo was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the United States of America using the Apollo spacecraft and Saturn launch vehicle, conducted during the years 1961–1972. It was devoted to the goal of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth within the decade of the 1960s. This goal was achieved with the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969. The program continued into the early 1970s to carry out the initial hands-on scientific exploration of the Moon, with a total of six successful landings. As of 2006, there has not been any further human spaceflight beyond low earth orbit. The later Skylab program and the joint American-Soviet Apollo-Soyuz Test Project used equipment originally produced for Apollo, and are often considered to be part of the overall program. The name Apollo, like earlier manned space-flight programs, was named after a god from classical civilizations, and comes from one of the Greek gods.

Baldness

2006-03-31T09:39:00.000+02:00

Alopecia, commonly known as baldness, is a set of disorders which involves the state of lacking hair where it would normally grow, especially on the head. The most common form of baldness is a progressive hair-thinning condition that occurs in adult humans and other primate species. Nonetheless, the severity and nature of condition can vary greatly; it ranges from male and female pattern alopecia (alopecia androgenetica), to alopecia areata, which involves the loss of some of the hair from the head, alopecia totalis, which involves the loss of all head hair, to the most extreme form, alopecia universalis, which involves the loss of all hair from the head and the body. Treatment for alopecia has limited success. The more hair lost, the less successful the treatment will be. The psychological implications of alopecia include stress, anxiety and depression, and can in many cases involve issues relating to identity change, particularly when the eyebrows and eyelashes are also lost.

Prisons

2006-03-31T09:24:00.000+02:00

Imprisonment is one of the main forms of punishment for the commission of crimes within the United States of America, and according to some reports, the country has some of the highest incarceration rates in the world. Some feel the high levels are due to the long sentences, especially for non-violent crimes.Some also feel that repeat offenders are not properly handled and that more focus should be on rehabilitation. A survey showed that among the nearly 300,000 prisoners released, 67.5% were rearrested within 3 years, and 51.8% were back in prison. The United States has the highest proportional prison population of any reporting world nation at 686 per 100,000. For the most part, the U.S. rate is five to eight times that of the Western European nations and Canada. The rate in England and Wales, for example, is 139 persons imprisoned per 100,000 residents while in Norway it is 59 per 100,000.

The condom

2006-03-30T10:25:00.000+02:00

A condom is a device, usually made of latex more recently polyurethane, that is used during sexual intercourse to reduce the risk of pregnancy and/or some sexually trasmitted diseases (STDs) such as gonorrhea, syphilis and HIV. Condoms are also often used to cover medical ultrasound imaging transducers, keep a sex toy clean, and in cases of toys shared between partners, helping provide STD protection. Condoms do not protect against all forms of STDs. Other uses include holding water, keeping gun muzzles dry, and being a membrane to keep drugs intact whilst being trafficked. They are also known as prophylactics, as well as a number of colloquial or slang terms, such as rubbers.

Comic books are a paradoxical medium. They exist at once as both collectibles and consumables. They are perhaps the medium most open to independent producers; anyone with a pencil and access to a Xerox machine can produce mini-comics" (From Dissertation on comic books, by Mark C. Rogers). "One advantage comic book writers have on other writers, of course, is artwork. Comic book writers do not have to waste words describing something the reader can plainly see. Yet this is a frequent blunder committed by neophyte comic book writers" (From So What's so great about writing comic books?, by Steven Philip Jones)

The hamburger

2006-03-29T11:21:00.000+02:00

A common theory is that the word "hamburger" originated from Hamburg, Germany. Due to widely prevalent anti-German sentiment in the USA during the First World War, an alternative name for hamburgers ("salisbury steaks") became more common for the duration; hamburgers' popularity even after the war was severely depressed until the White Castle chain of restaurants created a business model featuring sales of large numbers of small hamburgers in the mid-1920s. Recent years have seen the increasing popularity of new types of "burgers" in which alternatives to ground beef are used as the primary ingredient. For example, a turkey burger uses ground turkey meat, a chicken burger uses either ground chicken meat or chicken fillets, a buffalo burger uses ground meat from a bison, an ostrich burger is made from ground ostrich meat and a veggie burger, garden burger, or tofu burger uses a meat substitute (such as tofu, TVP, seitan (wheat gluten), or an assortment of vegetables, ground up and mashed into patties).

World's Biggest Hamburger

Art of seduction

2006-03-29T09:28:00.000+02:00

Seduction is the process of deliberately enticing a person into an act. The word can have a negative connotation, either seriously or mildly (and also used jokingly),and may refer to an act that the other may later regret and/or would normally not want to do. Temptation is similar, but does not require another person actively inducing it. In a religious context, seduction is often a specific form of temptation, an inducement to commit a sinful or immoral act. Seduction most commonly refers to the use of sexual desire in order to persuade someone to change their behavior to meet the desires of the seducer. It is usually implied that the seducer is acting out of a motive other than love for the seducee, and that the object of the seduction would not ordinarily have engaged in such behavior. There are many strategies that can be used for seduction, depending on sex, personality and circumstances. Many social behavior theorists classify seduction as a specialized form of persuasion. Seduction can also be viewed as a form of power that relies on psychological mastery rather than the use of coercive power, money, or intellectual appeals.

The Believers

2006-03-29T08:50:00.000+02:00

The existence of religion in all of the world's major societies is the result of the process of Darwinian natural selection. Religion is a set of beliefs made by the elders in a society to enforce the moral values necessary to preserve the society which exploits a belief and supernatural powers to enforce "the rules". In a primitive society, without modern methods of transportation communication, religions could not conflict. In fact, religions were necessary to build the societies stable enough to bring about the technological advancements needed to bring them into conflict. However, in the modern world, the deep set beliefs in supernatural powers that have led people to build modern society cause more harm than good, because people are willing to fight and die to force their beliefs upon others in a time when science and technology have reached levels high enough to refute or make obsolete the claims of supernatural powers on which those beliefs are based (From Religion's place in modern society, by David Baron)

Hiragana is the first of all the writing systems taught to Japanese children. Many books for young children are, therefore, written in hiragana only.

"Sometimes, it seems, the paranoids are really on to something. When conspiracies prove to be true, the assertion that there is a kernel of truth in even the most far-fetched conspiracy theory appears also to be true. Conspiracies are often replete with internal paradoxes, and some are easily dismissed by rational folks as completely weird and crazy. Often, the truth lies in the middle, and the task of the serious researcher is to make an intelligent discernment. To dismiss some conspiracy theories as too wild and off the wall to deserve attention may only result in the last laugh being enjoyed by those who seek to control and to manipulate others" (From Conspiracies and Secret Societies: The Complete Dossier, by Brad Steiger and Sherry Steiger)

The Art of Cooking

2006-03-27T13:54:00.000+02:00

Although the art of cooking seems mysterious at first, its elements are easy to define. You can prepare foods using different methods, with a variety of equipment, ingredients and seasonings. The great world cuisines came into being when people in diverse ecosystems and climates experimented with limited regional food resources and technologies over long periods of time. The Chinese method of stir-frying, for example, developed where large populations made firewood scarce. The Greeks create wonderful dishes with olive oil, mint, marjoram, flour, and other locally-available ingredients. French cuisine, which we associate with expensive restaurants, originated in the kitchens of family farmers, as did Italian and many other cuisines. And we must thank the Native Americans for showing us how to use our own native wild edible plants. (From The Wild Vegetarian Cookbock)

Anomalies of Nature
Throughout history there have always been individuals who possessed the amazing ability to "see" things either at a distant place or at a distant time, both past and future. But it wasn't until around 20 years ago that serious research was started by scientific groups. They found that the human mind had the amazing ability to "see" events at a distance even though under normal circumstances the "viewer" had no knowledge of these events. They further found that under certain mind-states a person could "see" reasonably accurately into the future or into the past. Not only that but distance didn't matter. Successful Remote Viewing has been achieved over a distance of 6000 miles!

Whether the other senses can be affected is unclear. Since deja vu is such an undocumentable experience, even this is not a certain statement. Going under the assumptions that it is exclusively a visual phenomenon, that it only seems to occur to certain people, and that there must be a physiological cause for the phenomenon, we consider some possible explanations

It's pronounced like "early art," but has nothing at all to do with caveman paintings. The UrlyArt idea was conceived over a long Mexican lunch on February 9, 2006 by Ron Hornbaker and Joe Sparks.The site was quietly launched on February 20, 2006.

MSN Art
An emoticon, sometimes called a smiley, is a sequence of printable characters or a small image that is intended to represent a human facial expression and convey an emotion. Emoticons are a form of paralanguage commonly used in e-mail messages, in online bulletin boards, instant messengers, or in chat rooms. The word emoticon is a portmanteau which popular etymology bases on emotion and icon. In truth, the second element is con, short for console, not icon.

Digital Photography Tutorial
Photography is going through an exciting and often controversial transition period as many traditional film photographers are beginning to explore the new capabilities made possible with digital cameras. Traditional aspects such as the fundamental techniques and lens equipment have remained the same, however others are markedly different. Photographers using digital equipment now have previously unattainable control over noise levels, dynamic range and color accuracy. This is an exciting time to get involved with photography and digital imaging. Imaging and digital photography software changes routinely, so these tutorials aim to emphasis key concepts over specific step by step procedures. They are also designed to be general enough that nearly any common editing software can be used, unless otherwise stated.

Hacks
Hack is a term in the slang of the technology culture which has come into existence over the past few decades. As a noun, it has a number of related meanings. As a verb, it means creating or participating in a hack. The initial hacker community applied this pre-existing local slang to computer programming. A "hack" now meant a clever or quick fix to a computer program problem, as in "That hack you made last night to the editor is working well". A hacker came into the lexicon as meaning one who hacks, using this definition. The surface implication (which might be a modest mocking and play on the literary definition) was a casual attempt to fix the problem, but the deeper meaning was something more clever and thus impressive.This site contains a complete list of the hacks that are available online.

The Flash Mind Reader
Telepathy is the claimed innate ability of humans and other creatures to communicate information from one mind to another, without the use of extra tools such as speech or body language. Considered a form of extra-sensory perception or anomalous cognition, telepathy is often connected to various paranormal phenomena such as precognition, clairvoyance and empathy. Though many scientific experiments into telepathy have been conducted, including recent ones by respected universities (some claiming significant positive results), telepathy remains controversial and is not widely accepted by scientists.

The built environment of the city has always been incomplete, by omission and necessity, and will remain so.

As probably some of you already know, two different versions of Guerino are actually present in the world wide web, that is, the scientist and the time waster.

The first one is the Ph.D. who is involved in world-wide research projects about next generation wireless communication networks, who teaches Electrical Communications at the University, and who travels the world for disseminating the research results of his group.

The second one is the guy who scans the Internet for the weird, the bizarre, and the unconventional.

So, this is the question that this morning raised in my mind: who wins between Science and Fun?

The answer is here.
