אוליבר סאקס על בני אדם ויצירת מיתוסים
שיחה עם ד"ר אוליבר סאקס, פרופסור לנוירולוגיה ופסיכיאטריה באוניברסיטת קולומביה: על השאלה האם למוח האנושי נטייה מולדת ליצירת מיתוסים, על הרקע היהודי שלו, ועל הנוירולוגיה שמאחורי חוויות מיסטיות.

The importance of growing your own food locally: Xavier Fux at TedXSanMi...
(Now with English subtitles! Just click the CC icon on the lower right of the video window - and click it again to get rid of the box that pops up). You can press the letter B on your keyboard to add a black border behind it for easier reading; and if you want to adjust the size, press the - or + key to shrink or enlarge the text. These keyboard shortcuts might not work while in fullscreen, but the adjustments you make will still show up when you go fullscreen.)
Xavier Fux graduated 1991 with a double major from the University of Western Ontario in Canada in Anthropology and Literature. In 2008, his jouney into permaculture began when he took a three-week course with Stephen Brooks and Evan Marks in Punta Mona in Costa Rica. He went on to receive his certificate in Permaculture Design at the Permaculture Research Institute of Australia, in Ethiopia. Xavier has worked on projects in Tulum and in 2011, he lead a Permaculture project in the Congo, with a 500 strong Pygmy community, which had been evicted from their ancestral lands. He is a founder of and active in Tacotal, a 32 acre eco-village in Orotina, Costa Rica. Xavier is also the founder and CEO of Green Beat, a company dedicated to providing consulting and advisory services in permaculture and green solutions. He currently manages the design and implementation of a rooftop nursery that will produce 3000 lettuces a week for local consumption in Mexico City and a Green Beat farm in Tulum. This talk is about the importance and possibilities of urban farming, and growing your own food locally.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Pioneer Science: Discovering Deep Space | BBC Documentary
Around the world, a new generation of astronomers are hunting for the most mysterious objects in the universe. Young stars, black holes, even other forms of life. They have created a dazzling new set of super-telescopes that promise to rewrite the story of the heavens.
This film follows the men and women who are pushing the limits of science and engineering in some of the most extreme environments on earth. But most strikingly of all, no-one really knows what they will find out there.
Not even drop-dead good looks and boyish enthusiasm could save Brian Cox from the first law of science on TV. No matter how hard you try, you can't make cutting-edge astrophysics intelligible for the scientifically illiterate. After all, even the scientifically literate barely have a clue what's going on; and if they do, they don't always agree. So throughout Wonders of the Solar System, I found myself saying: "I'm sure this is a-m-aaazing, Brian, but I haven't a clue why."
Horizon: Seeing Stars showcasing the world's best telescopes, got round this problem by not bothering to explain the difficult stuff, the basic message of the voiceover being: "This is all really important but I'm not going to say why, as you won't understand, so just sit back and enjoy the pictures because they are stunning." This no-nonsense approach was surprisingly effective because it lived up to its billing: the images were breathtaking.

Joven científica israelí con futuro
Espectacular cronica televisivia sobre Dr Kira Radinsky, una de las 35 inventores mas prometedores del mundo...Es una, relativamente, vieja rama de la lógica matemática llamada pattern recognition cuya aplicación - hasta ahora- estaba limitada a bases de datos/información muy pequeñas.
Con la aplicación de las técnicas informáticas modernas de recopilación y análisis de información, el potencial es tremendo.
De hecho, las agencias modernas de inteligencia y contrainteligencia lo que hacen rutinariamente es recopilar y analizar información pública con lo que hacen análisis situacional y predicciones. Tambien siembran desinformación.

From August 19 - 24, 270 international participants from Germany, the US, and Israel will walk together with 150 participants from Poland a distance of 2200 kilometers all across Poland. Over 50 members of the German delegation are descendants of members of Wehrmacht, police, or SS, who were directly involved in the war of annihilation and the Holocaust in Poland. Memorial Ceremonies will take place at historic memorial sites, such as Auschwitz, Kielce and Treblinka. On August 23, the Keynote Ceremony will take place in Warsaw in the presence of representatives of the spheres of politics and society both from Poland and Israel, among them the Deputy Speaker of the Knesset, MK Lia Shemtov.

Could the biblical story of Noah be true? Did real disasters inspire the story of Earth's 40-day submersion, the ultimate "do-over?" Recent core sample discoveries point to a series of events that could have lead to climactic conditions that washed out entire land masses, even destroying complete civilizations.
MEGA DISASTERS examines one such cataclysm in great detail: 8000 years ago the Mediterranean Sea, pushed by rising sea levels worldwide, exploded through the Bosporus Strait with devastating results. This ancient inundation may have been the greatest natural disaster in the history of humankind. MEGA DISASTERS reconstructs this massive flood, which claimed an area twice the size of Ireland, and utilizes vivid 3D animation to plunge viewers deep into the experience of this epic catastrophe.
NOAH'S GREAT FLOOD, whether apocryphal or literal, is the ultimate tale of man vs. nature (and God, for that matter), and MEGA DISASTERS shows how it may have really happened!
