Linking Park: 2006-W46
Forecasts from the past and the future, Lego bricks and applied meditation, Polish traditions and the absolute edge, introducing speedflying through life.
Quantum philosophers take note and go for a blast into the real past --
If his experiment with splitting photons actually works, says University of Washington physicist John Cramer, the next step will be to test for quantum "retrocausality." That's science talk for saying he hopes to find evidence of a photon going backward in time.
It doesn't seem like it should work, but on the other hand, I can't see what would prevent it from working,
Cramer said.If it does work, you could receive the signal 50 microseconds before you send it.
Brilliant minds forecast the next 50 years --
In coming decades will we: discover that we are not alone in the universe? Unravel the physiological basis for consciousness? Routinely have false memories implanted in our minds? Begin to evolve in new directions? And will physicists finally hit upon a universal theory of everything? In fact, if the revelations of the last 50 years are anything to go on -- the internet and the human genome for example -- we probably have not even thought up the exciting advances that lay ahead of us.
The Lego Elites are a great example for applied meditation in a highly creative setting. Take some random bricks and build a robot -- as fast as you can and with as few parts as possible. Ingenuity, creativity, instant brain-storming, make your brain child a reality. For advanced and most admired brick creations, try and make sure that the colors match.
The recipe of the week, some say it's a prescription: Nalewka Babuni 2.0: Super Anti-Oxidant Health Booze at Dethroner, all with ingredients listed and directions for proper preparation --
"Nalewka Babuni" -- "Granny's Medicine" -- is an old Polish tradition of taking something and soaking it in alcohol, thereby extracting its goodness.
Traditionally fruits and teas are used in nalewka babuni and our recipe is no exception, except that instead of flavor, we're going for maximum anti-oxidant properties. Our nalewka will be a healthy tincture with which to start each morning.
Living on the edge --
... is about embracing fear, about growing, about going out of your comfort zone because staying comfortable in one spot too long is akin to death. We must strive to live on the edge.
Strive to live on the edge?
From basejumping to speedflying, on skis and with parachutes --Now take this apparent insanity -- the mind-bending and the border-crossing -- back into everyday, urban and business-life and you've got it -- and only then you've got it as excellent as it gets.
Since being WOW and maintaining the high-speed, high-energy, and high-performance lifestyle is about hard work, here are some -- more or less random -- Testosterone speedlinks: Temporal Nutrition, Phoenix Rising, The Plastic Surgeon, Most Intimidating Athlete, The New BB for Old-School Results, Twenty Things I Know, ... your results may vary.
To your excellent life.
