- Seeing Stars In Stocks By Using Averted Vision
In astronomy there’s a technique known as “averted vision.” The point is you see the essence of a thing more clearly if you don’t stare at it directly. The present investment setting adumbrates this truism perfectly. Actually, I remember at Boy Scout camp in 1944 we called this technique “night vision.” The outdoor life trumped higher mathematics. 天文学ではと呼ばれる技術があるよ。。u0026quot;ビジョンを回避したが

- New York fashion week: Marc Jacobs hints at Dior move
New York designer's showmanship fuels rumours he will take over Christian Dior job – empty since John Galliano was firedNew York fashion week has finished with what looked like a very clear nod to Paris fashion week, which begins in three weeks.Marc Jacobs brought the curtain down with his show for his mainline eponymous label but, as beautiful and striking as the show was, it was difficult not to be distracted by the various hints he appeared to be dropping about another label.Ever since John Galliano was fired as the creative director of Christian Dior earlier this year after he shouted antisemitic abuse in a Paris bar, there have been many rumours, and no confirmations, about who would take over at the august French label. Almost six months later, many fashion insiders are whispering that Jacobs has all but signed the contract to take the Dior mantle and an official announcement will be made at the start of Paris fashion week.Even though Jacobs will forever be associated with the grunge look he so adored in the 1990s – an adoration which got him fired from his first label, Perry Ellis, when he made a grunge collection for the brand – the truth is that he left those grittier origins behind long ago and has been catering for a decidedly ritzier customer. After all, as well as designing his own label and its diffusion offshoot, Marc by Marc Jacobs, the man is the creative director of Louis Vuitton, and if there is one thing ritzier than a French brand known for astronomically priced luggage like Vuitton, it's a French brand known for astronomically priced fashion, like Christian Dior. His time at Vuitton has proven that he can handle being at the helm of a major French label, and his increasingly experimental looks at Marc Jacobs prove that he could happily fit in at a ニューヨークのデザイナーのショーマンシップの燃料の噂は彼がクリスチャンディオールの仕事を引き継ぎます - 空のジョンガリアーノはfiredNewニューヨークファッションウィークされてから3回weeks.Marcジェイコブスは、カーテンを倒さに始まるパリファッションウィーク、に非常に明確な会釈のようなもので完了しています美しいとショーがあったよう印象的な、それは彼はジョンガリアーノがあるのはクリエイティブディレクターとして解雇されて以来、別のlabel.Everについて落とすように見えた様々なヒントに気を取られるべきではないことは困難だったので、彼のメインライン名を冠したラベルのための彼のショー。。u200b。。u200bではなく、彼はパリのバーで反ユダヤ主義の悪用を叫んだ後にクリスチャンディオールは、今年8月、フランスのラベルで引き継ぐという人については、多くの噂、無確認が行われている

- Eric Strach obituary
My father, Eric Strach, who has died aged 96, was a consultant orthopaedic surgeon at St Helens and Whiston hospitals, Merseyside. He specialised in the treatment of children with spina bifida, and designed appliances which improved their quality of life, including the Strach-Edney calliper and a shunt to drain fluid from the head, for those affected by hydrocephalus.Eric was a keen amateur astronomer and built a solar observatory in his garden. His observations and drawings of solar flares and prominences were meticulously executed and published in the journal of the British Astronomical Association.Eric was born into a close-knit Jewish family in Brno, Czechoslovakia, where his father owned an umbrella shop. After graduating in medicine from Prague University in 1938, Eric went on holiday to France. As the situation in Europe deteriorated, his parents dissuaded him from returning. Eric tried desperately to arrange a visa for his older sister, Ilse, and her children. He always thought he could have done more to save them.He arrived in the UK in 1940 with the Czech army and resumed his medical career, becoming the senior house surgeon at Wigan Infirmary. He married Margaret Forshaw in 1945. After the war, he returned to Czechoslovakia to help with the typhus epidemic in the Terezin concentration camp. He and Margaret intended to live in Czechoslovakia but, when Eric discovered that his family had perished in concentration camps, decided to settle in the UK.Until the fall of the iron curtain, Eric did not return. After the establishment of the Czech Republic in 1990, Eric set about having a memorial stone erected in the Jewish cemetery in Slavkov, near Brno, where his grandparents had lived, and renovating the synagogue there.

- Science Weekly podcast: The human era, and war without tears
Geologist Jan Zalasiewicz from the University of Leicester explains his idea that humans may have changed the planet so much since the industrial revolution we've started a whole new geological era.Science writer Carl Zimmer asks this week's Hannaford question: the question he would most like answered by science.We also hear from the author of Mind Wars, philosopher Jonathan Moreno at the University of Pennsylvania about the ethical implications of using neuroscience in security activities and military research. Could waterboarding be replaced with an injection of a neurochemical like oxytocin in interrogations? What would it mean if soldiers were to have their ability to form emotional memories blocked before going into battle to minimise the psychological after-effects of combat? How do you weigh the potential to prevent a lifetime of post-traumatic stress in former soldiers against the possibility of a generation of veterans returning home without any guilt or regrets about what they might have done?Alok is joined by Guardian science correspondent Ian Sample to discuss the week's news stories including funding cuts to science research in the UK - affecting in particular British researchers' contribution to international astronomy and particle physics projects - and an unexpected problem with immune rejection in potential stem cell therapiesSubscribe for free via iTunes to ensure every episode gets delivered.

- Letters: Blurred boundaries of science and religion
In reporting that Martin Rees had won this year's Templeton prize (From big bang to big bucks, 7 April), Ian Sample tells us more about the critics of the John Templeton Foundation than the foundation itself or its current winner. The foundation blurs the boundary between science and religion, the implication being that this is dangerous or madness. Eminent scientists compare religion to homeopathy and any holder of the prize must suffer from intellectual doublethink. The most crucial point in the entire article was buried deep and was made only once: scientists, even the most eminent, read little philosophy or theology and understand even less.If I want to know what it is to be a human being, I would ask a novelist, not a biologist. We are more than the tools of science can measure: science tells us that water is H2O but does not tell us it is wet. Science only looks outwards, not inwards. At its best, religion is rational, experiential and philosophically and theologically self-critical. It relies heavily on metaphor and paradox and is no less rigorous than science. The key problem for many scientists is that they bring an atheistic philosophy to their science and make claims which their experiments and theories cannot substantiate: interpretation is brought by the thinker, not by the physical universe itself.Scott McKennaEdinburgh• Surely Sir Martin Rees has already forfeited his scientific credentials by accepting a knighthood and royal assignment as astronomer royal? No rationally organised society should allow the continued existence of the monarchy, and no one asserting a scientific worldview should legitimate it by accepting its rewards.Dr Gordon DownieCardiffMartin ReesReligionScience prizesPeople in scienceguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limit マーティンリース(つまり、大金をビッグバンから4月7日)を今年のテンプルトン賞を受賞したことの報告では、イアンのサンプルは、基礎自体またはその現在の勝者よりもジョンテンプルトン財団の批判の詳細について教えてくれる
- Space: An experiment in orbit | Editorial
The International Space Station may have cost us the earth, but it can give us the universeIt is the laboratory with the world's highest overheads. Its capital costs are indeed astronomical. But this month America's International Space Station becomes truly international. An unmanned Russian Progress space truck and a Japanese vehicle called Kounotori, or White Stork, are already plugged into the space station: they came to deliver groceries and fuel; they will remain as temporary accommodation; and they will depart as garbage disposal units. They will be joined next week by a European Space Agency robot delivery van called Johannes Kepler, with more than seven tonnes of propellant, supplies and oxygen. Later in February, the space shuttle Discovery and its astronauts will join the party on what will be its last mission. In April, the shuttle Endeavour will deliver the last hardware, then also retire. Atlantis, the remaining shuttle, stands by for a final mission in June.Thereafter all fuel, food, water, oxygen, household supplies, experimental apparatus and spare parts will be delivered by the other partners, not by Nasa. When the station's lavatories need to be emptied, Moscow, Paris or Tokyo will take care of it. If the station needs to be moved out of danger, then a European or a Russian tractor will do the heavy lifting. If the people on the ISS need to get home, they must board a Russian Soyuz lifeboat. Each shuttle launch costs Nasa $500m. It can no longer afford to run the fleet and will rely on private enterprise to design, test and fly reusable vehicles between Earth and the ISS. It has contracts with two space entrepreneurs, but neither is yet ready to deliver goods or people to a moving target more than 200 miles overhead.The planet's only living, breathing 国際宇宙ステーションは私たちに地球を要するかもしれないが、それが我々にuniverseItを与えることができる世界最高レベルのオーバーヘッドの研究室です
- This is Egypt's revolution, not ours | Mohammad Mursi
All we in the Muslim Brotherhood want is for President Mubarak to go and real democracy to prevailAs the past fortnight has underlined, Egypt occupies a leading role in one of the most vital and volatile regions in the world. However, this great country has been ruled by an autocratic regime for more than 30 years, and left riddled with corruption, poverty, inequality and insecurity. With millions condemned to live in squalor, astronomical unemployment rates, political suppression and absence of basic freedoms, the Egyptian people have been seething with anger, frustration and discontent for years. Thousands of political dissidents have been dragged before military courts and sentenced to years in prison despite civil courts ordering their release. Elections were rigged on an unimaginable scale – forcing Egyptians, and especially the young, into a state of utter desperation.The Muslim Brotherhood, which was established in 1928, is at the heart of Egyptian society, and therefore has come in for much of the strife and difficulty that faced the entire country as a result of the regime's policies and practices. As a political movement with wide appeal and support, it was constantly targeted by some of the most brutal government measures. It was banned from public life despite the fact that most people considered it to be the main opposition organisation.Despite numerous attempts to tarnish the Muslim Brotherhood's reputation inside Egypt and beyond, the tenets of our movement could not be clearer or more unequivocal. We aim to remove all forms of injustice, tyranny, autocracy and dictatorship, and we call for the implementation of a democratic multiparty all-inclusive political system that excludes no one.Accusations that we aim to dominate or hegemonise the political syste ムスリム同胞団のすべては、我々のムバラク大統領は、行って真の民主主義は、過去二週間、エジプトは、世界で最も重要な揮発性の領域のいずれかで主導的な役割を占めている下線がprevailAsすることですか

- Galileo's fingers to be displayed in Florence science museum
Museum named after 16th-century astronomer to display fingers removed from corpse by admirersTwo of Galileo's fingers, removed from his corpse by admirers in the 18th century, have gone on display in a Florence museum now named after the astronomer.The Museum of the History of Science had shut down for two years for renovations. It reopened on Tuesday, calling itself the Galileo Museum.Last year, the museum director announced that the thumb and middle finger from Galileo's right hand had turned up at an auction and were recognised as being the fingers of the scientist, who died in 1642. The fingers are now displayed in slender, glass cases. Also on display is his tooth. A third finger was already in the museum.In 1737, admirers of Galileo Galilei removed the three fingers, plus the tooth and a vertebra, from his body as it was being moved from a storage place to a monumental tomb – opposite that of Michelangelo, in Santa Croce Basilica in Florence.The vertebra is kept at the University of Padua, where Galileo taught for many years.The tooth, thumb and middle finger were held in a container passed from generation to generation in the same family, but in the early 20th century all traces of the relics disappeared. The container turned up at auction late last year, and detailed historical documents and the family's own records helped experts to identify them, according to museum officials.A wooden bust of Galileo tops the container in which the relics had long been kept.Visitors can also view what the museum says are the only surviving instruments designed and built by Galileo, including two telescopes and a lens he used to discover Jupiter's moons.The Vatican condemned Galileo for contradicting church teaching, which held at the time that the Earth, not the sun, was the c 博物館は16世紀の天文学者の後の指を死体からガリレオの指のadmirersTwo除去、彼の死体から18世紀にファンによって削除表示するには、フィレンツェの美術館今すぐastronomer.The博物館の歴史の後に名前の表示になっている名前科学は改装のため2年間をシャットダウンした
