Stephen Hawking's says We have entered a new phase of Evolution

Famed theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawkins has brought forth a new level of understanding in regards to human evolution. Beyond Darwin's theory of Evolution and natural selection. Hawking is the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge.We are all aware of the of the information change around us. But are we aware that it's evolution taking place right before our eyes?

Stephen Hawking in Life in the Universe lecture.

"there are about 50,000 new books published in the English language each year, containing of the order of a hundred billion bits of information. Of course, the great majority of this information is garbage, and no use to any form of life. But, even so, the rate at which useful information can be added is millions, if not billions, higher than with DNA."

"At first, evolution proceeded by natural selection, from random mutations. This Darwinian phase, lasted about three and a half billion years, and produced us, beings who developed language, to exchange information."

"I think it is legitimate to take a broader view, and include externally transmitted information, as well as DNA, in the evolution of the human race,"

"an external transmission phase," where the internal record of information, handed down to succeeding generations in DNA, has not changed significantly. "But the external record, in books, and other long lasting forms of storage," Hawking says, "has grown enormously. Some people would use the term, evolution, only for the internally transmitted genetic material, and would object to it being applied to information handed down externally. But I think that is too narrow a view. We are more than just our genes."

Harvard: does Physical exercise sharpens the brain?

Apparently until this study there had been no hard evidence that being physically fit increases brain function. Other than the so so lame indications from trained rodents in the labs(I'm curious to know how they figured the rats got smarter, even better how they got the funding-I think the roaches in NY are smarter, any money for research?... So know this you can confidently rush out to the gym and give your self one more excuse to work out. Or one more excuse to be mad at yourself for not hitting the gym. This was published in the Journal of Gerontology. I am guesting that the readers are smarter than I am and know what 'Gerontology' means;)

"physically fit subjects had less age-related brain-tissue shrinkage than less active subjects. Using magnetic resonance imaging, the researchers saw clear differences in the frontal, temporal, and parietal regions of the brain"

Acclaimed author Stephen Covey offers insights on how to get a Job in the tough economy

• However, what if you took the time to really research the company you want to work for? Read and research about what’s going on right now in the company. Find someone you might know to talk to about what they’re dealing with and what they’re trying to accomplish. If you don’t know someone, make a call to find someone in the company who might be willing to spend a few minutes with you. Network with their suppliers or one of their clients to get a better understanding of the company, department or person you want to work for. Between the Internet and networking, you can piece together a picture of what would be of specific value to them. From there you can see if your experience, talent, skills, and passion match up to what they need. Now you can creatively position yourself as a solution and differentiate yourself. Get a conversation started in the company by presenting yourself as a solution to their problems not as a person looking for a job.

6 Sex Mistakes Women Make??

In a interesting article on webmd.com they explain 6 Sex Mistakes Women Make and reasons why women make them.
http://women.webmd.com/features/6-sex-mistakes-women-make

Les Parrot, professor of psychology at Seattle Pacific University and author of a new book called Crazy Good Sex, failing to initiate sex is one of the biggest mistakes women make.
“Most guys feel like they are always the initiator and that sets up disequilibrium on the passion scale in the relationship,” he says. Generally, men want to be pursued by their partners just as much as women do.

"Dr. Ruth," aka Ruth Westheimer, PhD, a psychosexual therapist, professor at New York University, and lecturer at Yale and Princeton universities. “They used to think that women are less interested in sexual activity and I don’t want to say that anymore. I think there are women who are as interested in sex [as men].” Dr Ruth is the author of

Bottom line:

Bringing in an SD slot and bringing back the FireWire port—while also lowering prices—eliminated Apple's weakest links in the 13-inch MacBook Pro. Add bigger, better battery life and you've got yourself a winner.

Pro's:

Very good processing parts for an entry-level machine. Unparalleled multi-touch gestures. Best-looking chassis in its class. Sturdy. Return of the FireWire port. Bigger, better battery life than its predecessor's. Lower prices. Backlit keyboard. Loaded with green cred. Now with an SD slot.

Con's:

Base memory is little low for this day and age.

What are your thoughts? What would you end up buying?
