Banned TED Talk: Rupert Sheldrake — Science Set Free
"There is a conflict within science between science as a method of inquiry (based on evidence, reason, hypothesis & collective investigation), and science as a belief system, or a worldview. And unfortunately, the worldview aspect of science has come to inhibit the inquiry which is the very lifeblood of the scientific endeavor. Since the late 19th century, science has been conducted under the belief system which is essentially Materialism. And the sciences are now the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Materialist worldview. I think that as we break out of it, the sciences will be regenerated. In my book Science Set Free (or The Science Delusion in some countries), we take the ten dogmas or assumptions of science, and turn them into questions. Seeing how well they stand up if you look at them… scientifically; and none of them stand up very well:
1. Nature is mechanical or machine like
2. All matter is unconscious
3. The laws or constants of nature are fixed
4. The total amount of matter and energy is always the same
5. Nature is purposeless
6. Biological heredity is material
7. Memories are stored inside your brain
8. Your mind is inside your head
9. Psychic phenomena like telepathy are not possible
10. Mechanistic medicine is the only kind that works
"Every single one of these dogmas is questionable, and if one questions them, new forms of research, new avenues open up. And I think that as we question these dogmas that have held back science for so long, science will undergo a re-flowering, a renaissance. I have spent my whole career as a research scientist. But I think by moving beyond these dogmas, it can be regenerated and become, once again, interesting and life—affirming. … In an evolutionary Universe, why shouldn't the laws themselves evolve?"

Please don't buy this system.
Technology is getting creepier.
So I know a lot of you like Xbox and I do as well, but I feel it's necessary to spread this information around as much as possible.
The Xbox One is just a fail in my eyes and I thought that before I even read this information. I believe the reveal was a joke and all these features just show me how awful it is.A lot of you won't care, but I think it's really important for people to see just how invasive these features are.
SO basically dont buy it.

"[Anarchism] calls for an elimination to tyranny, all kinds of tyranny. Including the kind of tyranny that's internal to private power concentrations. So why should we prefer it? Well I think because freedom is better than subordination. It's better to be free than to be a slave. Its' better to be able to make your own decisions than to have someone else make decisions and force you to observe them. I mean, I don't think you really need an argument for that. It seems like … transparent. The thing you need an argument for, and should give an argument for, is, How can we best proceed in that direction? And there are lots of ways within the current society. One way, incidentally, is through use of the state, to the extent that it is democratically controlled. I mean in the long run, anarchists would like to see the state eliminated. But it exists, alongside of private power, and the state is, at least to a certain extent, under public influence and control — could be much more so. And it provides devices to constrain the much more dangerous forces of private power. Rules for safety and health in the workplace for example. Or insuring that people have decent health care, let's say. Many other things like that. They're not going to come about through private power. Quite the contrary. But they can come about through the use of the state system under limited democratic control … to carry forward reformist measures. I think those are fine things to do. They should be looking forward to something much more, much beyond, — namely actual, much larger-scale democratization. And that's possible to not only think about, but to work on."-

For those who don't know, Johina is the daughter of Shaker Aamer, a Saudi Arabian citizen who was living in Britain at the time of his arrest. The evidence for the arrest (that he participated in the Battle of Tora Bora) in question is based on evidence received from questionable sources through torture procedures. The Bush administration even admitted later that their evidence was weak. He never was officially charged for any wrongdoing and never had a trial. He was detained in Guantánamo Bay Prison in 2001 and was cleared for release TWICE in 2007 and 2009 BUT STILL REMAINS IN GITMO. His mental and physical health have been declining over the years he has spent at GITMO, and he is currently participating in a hunger strike with many other prisoners to protest their wrongful detention. He has lost 40% of his body weight because of this. Government, if there was a time where you could actually get your shit together and do something right, now would be the time.
