A Practical Application Of The Stefan-Boltzmann Law
The Stefan-Boltzmann law has to do with radiation of black bodies, the Wein’s law and other concepts related to heat radiation (infrared) and other types of electromagnetic radiation, among other very abstract concepts. All of this is very well documented and can be consulted in the internet. This article has to do with a very simple, totally new application used to keep your enchiladas (I mean your food) hot: A ceramic microwaveable HEAT RETENTIVE PLATE or heat retaining plate what do you prefer?.Read more…Reasons Wind Power Is A Viable Energy Solution

Where did HIV come from? This question has been one of controversy since the outbreak of the epidemic, and many maverick and even lunatic theories have been aired, including it being a virus from space deposited by a passing comet or aliens, or God’s revenge on a sinful world. The origins of the virus pale into insignificance compared to the battle of fighting it.Read more…Ergonomics - Are You Sitting Comfortably?
Ergonomics is, basically, the science of comfort. It is the study of how your equipment affects you when you are at work, both in terms of maximising your efficiency and reducing any health risks that might be present.Where you’ve probably heard the term, though, is used in relation to computer equipment: mice, mouse mats, keyboards, monitors, and the like.Read more…Endangered Species in the Caribbean
The Caribbean's exotic plants and animals are a large part of the natural beauty which attracts many international visitors to the region. In fact, one third of the area's wildlife and plants are found only there. Unfortunately, many native species are either endangered, threatened or, in some cases, already extinct.Read more…Beware! Hungry Plants Await Their Meal
Generally plants gain nutrition through their roots (water and minerals) and leaves (absorption of sunlight and carbon dioxide (CO2)) to create ATP ((adenosine triphosphate or energy) to meet their metabolic needs) and starch (a reserve for when photosynthetic conditions are not optimal (e.g. reduction in intensity and length of sunlight, droughts, frosts, and other adverse situations).Read more…Science and a Young Earth
Haven't geologists proved from scientific dating methods that the earth is 4.5 billion years old? Doesn't astronomy prove that the universe must, at least, be billions of years old since it would have required billions of years for light from the nearest stars to reach the earth?Read more…Weather Radars
There is science behind predicting the weather. When we hear a weather report, there is actually a process behind it. Weather radars are essential to meteorology and the art of predicting the weather.Read more…At Home DNA Testing
Used in high-profile criminal investigations and paternity cases, deoxyribonucleic acid, commonly known as DNA, testing has now been popularized to prove relationships between individuals. The evolution of the test in past years has turned DNA testing into a popular tool for determining ancestry. The test also helps in determining if two people are related or descend from the same ancestor.Read more…Wireless Home Weather Stations

A demonstration of the mathematical, theoretical and, especially, empirical connotations of the phrase "Pudding Proof" in the context of a highly exacting physical model. In particular, a formula is given deriving the mass of the Z-boson from two heavy quarks and and Higgs field. Remarkably, the precise correlation with the known value of the Z-mass is thus empirically proof positive of these far less directly measurable masses, which is further supported by arithmetic and theoretic construct. - The Theory, Significance and Precise Calculation of Gluino Mass - By: Sean Sheeter
A preview of the most significant predictable particle cascades at Cern's LH-Collider in the coming years. Describes how a precise gluino mass of 6.388355 TeV relates to the super-symmetric Higgs mechanism and decays to squarks and other 'sparticles as a prerequisite to creation of 'dark mass,' as well as the unsolved puzzle of material baryon creation. Which also goes on to shows why giving three dimensionless calculations for the gluino mass are central to the e-course "241-Mumbers." - Derivation of the Pure Precise Fine-Structure Number and as a Ratio of Two Inexact Metric Constants - By: Sean Sheeter
A history of a definitive answer to #1 'millennium question' of Strings 2000 in regard to whether all fundamental parameters can be determined in a dimensionless manner. Focus's on a 'pure' calculation of the fine-structure constant from a unified 'monolithic' system that allows precise equations for the full spectrum of fundamental particle masses from Higgs/SUSY to quarks, neutrinos and dark matter. With an update on controversies of determining the fine-structure from metric measures and a few other related issues. - Proof of the Exact Up and Down Quark Masses from the Pion Mass-Differential - By: Sean Sheeter
A discussion of the equivalence of the mass differential between the charged and neutral pion as a function the mass difference between the down and up quark. Given the unprecedented mass value of the down quark = 7.763258 MeV, the up quark mass is calculable from the even more exacting d-u mass differential = 4.593453 MeV, where the experimental pion mass difference = 4.5936 plusmn.0005 MeV. - Camps that Grow the Science in You - By: Ron Victor
