  Dazzling photographs and images from space of our planet's nightlights have captivated public attention for decades. In such images, patterns are immediately seen based on the presence or absence of light: a distinct coastline, bodies of water recognizable by their dark silhouettes, and the faint tendrils of roads and highways emanating from the brilliant blobs of light that are our modern, well-lit cities. For nearly 25 years, satellite images of Earth at night have served as a fundamental research tool, while also stoking public curiosity. These images paint an expansive and revealing picture, showing how humans have illuminated and shaped the planet in profound ways since the invention of the light bulb 140 years ago.

  Understanding how right-brain and left-brain differences influence our habits, thoughts, and actions. 
   
   
   
  Human behavior is lopsided. When cradling a newborn child, most of us cradle the infant to the left. When posing for a portrait, we tend to put our left cheek forward. When kissing a lover, we tend to tilt our head to the right. Why is our behavior so lopsided and what does this teach us about our brains? How have humans always used this information to make our images more attractive and impactful? Can knowing how left-brain right-brain differences shape our opinions, tendencies, and attitudes help us make better choices in art, architecture, advertising, or even athletics? 
   
   
   
  Side Effects delves into how lateral biases in our brains influence our everyday behavior, and how being aware of these biases can be to our advantage.

  The UFO Experience - Evidence...

  J. Allen Hynek

  Cited by the New York Review of Books as “the best brief for visitation,” this classic study presents an analysis of UFO reports and concludes that many sightings cannot be easily dismissed.The case against UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) has not been put to rest. Although UFOs “officially” did not exist for decades according to the government, reports of sightings continue to be made, and the latest releases from the government and related hearings have surprised the world. While the scientific community has put UFOs out to pasture, the evidence used to dismiss them is rare and unscientific.Dr. Hynek, a scientist himself, and the only government-paid ufologist in history, looks at the decisions made by officialdom in the early days of ufology and how these decisions have held us back—to the point that we are still naively talking about UFOs as we were in the 1950s. Has seventy years of research made no difference at all in our understanding?Dr. Hynek proves that there is a conspiracy afoot to hide the facts and that there are many cases that still need to be explained by mainstream science—not dismissed with facile jokes and stupid logic. Citing specific cases, Hynek challenges those in the ivory tower by raising questions that have still not been answered and refuting mainstream arguments that have yet to be proven.

  The internet has a short history when compared to the time that we have had life on earth. But in this very short period of time, it has taken mankind by a storm. There have been several transformation on the way we transact, and communicate since the time internet was developed. The manner in which we maintain a record of transactions and contracts create the basics of our economic, legal and political system. These instruments help us in protecting our assets and setting organizational boundaries. The record of every transaction or contract helps in the establishment and verification of identities as well as in chronicling events. They oversee the interactions between nations, organizations, communities and individuals. 
  This explains that they are extremely critical tools and they must be managed very effectively and in a highly robust manner to ensure that no one tampers with these records. We have not been able to keep up with technology in the management of these records. And at this time, while most of the companies are looking for processes and methods and some have even established certain tools that can govern the management of such records; but for most part of it, these records are still limited when it comes to their security and management. In a world that is undergoing digital transformation, the way in which we regulate and maintain administrative control requires transformation too. 
  This is where Blockchain can help. The technology comes with a lot of promise and it surely has the ability to solve a number of underlying problems when it comes to the proper administration of transactions and contracts. Blockchain is built into the core of Bitcoin and is currently used by a number of other cryptocurrencies as well.
