Do you know any other men who are bisexual?
Chances are you don’t. But why not?
A US survey in the 1990’s put the incidence of male bisexuality at 1.8%. That’s almost 1 in 50 and most of us know more than 50 people. So how come bisexuals are so invisible?
Well to kick off with there’s the [...]

The latest feature available to Gmail users is invisibility! Things to remember: If you are also logged in from another interface such as the desktop client, you will not appear invisible. Don't worry, Gmail warns you about this! Also, this feature is available only in the new Gmail version. Read more.
Researchers have employed nanotechnology on the way towards the creation of an invisibility device that could make objects invisible.
A Purdue University team has made a theoretical design that employs an array of tiny needles radiating outward from a central spoke, which would bend light around the cloaked object. “Background objects would be visible but not [...]
A while back I wrote that we had practiced “ninja invisibility” during that particular class. That’s not the sort of invisibility like in Hollow Man, where light passes through you. Rather it is a phenomenon that happens when you are moving in a proper, aiki fashion with uke. What happens is uke tends to lose track of you and to be unable to reorient easily. There are roughly three skills going on in this phenomenon.Evade toward uke, passing through the narrowest part of his field of vision. Evading away from uke keeps you in the widest part of his field of vision. By moving into uke as you evade it is easier to get into shikaku (uke’s ‘dead angle’ or blind spot).Don’t grab and hang onto uke. If you do he can easily orient to you. Use your arms as feelers (Mississippi-speak f
Aikido with Patrick M., Rick, and MytchiJodo with Mytchi. We worked on rolling the cane from pencil grip to honte, gyakute, and sakate grips. We also worked on #1 and #6 seiteikata as separation events against unarmed attackers.Tegatana emphasizing using ideokinesis to release into shizentai by visualizing forces drawing the crown of the head and the balls of the feet apart (is that enough jargon for you or what?). This was an amazing, relaxing postural fix.Hanasu #1-4Randori as a game of random releases. Everyone was doing great on this.Oshitaoshi (irimi omote and tenkan) emphasizing sidestepping into uke's blind spot and staying there with feelers until you can separate or execute a technique. We also got to play with good locking posture in pins.We talked about several really disor
Andrea wrote a post this week about colour, and the pleasure she takes in it. Colour has always been one of my drugs of choice (along with Cold F/X – have you tried it? it’s like caffeine, only better). When I’m down, a quick shot of deep yellow always gives me an endorphin rush (this is one of many reasons that I’m rarely depressed in the fall; the other reasons have to do with years upon
"The world's first true invisibility cloak – a device
able to hide an object in the visible spectrum – has
been created by physicists in the US. But don't expect
it to compete with stage magic...

We had tickets to seen Korn and Evanescence.I wanted to see Evanescence, but had no desire to see Korn.When Mr. Honeybell suggested it, I allowed Phone Boy to have my ticket.I gave my ticket to Phone Boy.I've mentioned several times "be sure to get me a T shirt though!"Before they left last night, I told both of them individually and together "Don't forget to buy my T shirt!"Boys Suck.
Human Spontaneous Involuntary Invisibility refers to becoming invisible unknowingly without any involvement of ones will, for some time which may range from fre minutes to hours.A WOMAN NAMED Melanie in Ventura, California had a strange experience while sitting on her own living room sofa. While just staring at the wall, she became, she believes, invisible. Her husband walked around the house looking for her. He even walked right by her - just a few feet away - and did not see her. The episode lasted about 10 minutes, then suddenly she was visible again.Donna Higbee is a researcher investigating in this regard. this is not the only reported case, there have been many other such cases reported and recorded by researchers such as Donna Higbee ,investigating in this regard.For eg. Jannise in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who has had a number of invisibility experiences throughout her life. This one reported lasted longer than usual. As a teenager, she fell in with a group of friends who decided
Back in the days when I was a student, I would often leave my contacts lenses out and live the day in a myopic blur. Sometimes this was due to vanity. Other times it was because I preferred the challenge of recognizing people by their colour fuzziness. I was always surprised at how accurate my people recognition was without, the benefit of a good view or prior to voice confirmation. It was a combination of different factors such as general shape, pattern of movement or gestures that no doubt assisted me.Just after ten I feel ruthless. I throw out three pairs of malfunctioning kitchen scissors. [translation = it is audacious to call yourself a pair of scissors if you cannot cut anything] I nip out into the garden on an errand of mercy to make up for the crime of rampant wastage. The air heaves with heat. [translation = malfunctioning sprinkler system] I attempt to give the kiss of life to my crispy garden clutching a hosepipe, whilst I contemplate the meaning of life, the un

This week on the Mr Science Show podcast, we are taking a look at a number of different
science news stories, as well as what I could salvage from one of most
out-take ridden episodes of the Diffusion Radio Science Shows with
which I have been involved - we had a great time, and its all good
science! I have the raw recordings should anyone want them.
Our stories are:
Dodgy North Korean Scientists attempting to clone mammoths
New developments in invisibility
Black and White television not so black and whiteWomen allergic to semen?Psychology and cricket
You will also hear the voices of Matt Clarke, Darren Osbourne, Tilly
Boleyn and Lachlan Whatmore. Darren is also involved with Mo-vember, so

The proof of concept demonstration of a 'cloaking' device has a lot of people interested in how this technology works and what it means for the military, industry and, most likely, peeping Toms. I am here to help.First, there are a few concepts. These are always the most difficult things to get people to agree on but if I don't make this simple enough that at least some wiseacre tells me I
