Stephen Hawking possesses eternal faith and intrusively believes in that ‘something; that makes everything work in which the objects of sense, sound, touch, sight, talk and smell belong, the essential parts of this material and visible world. , but the is incapable of comprehending the substance, to which these properties belong. He belongs to this visible world and therefore identifies with this external world, as he identifies with his physical body, made up of the properties that I just mention. He is only able to comprehend these important organs, but is incapable of comprehending the eternal substance, God, to which these properties belong. Since he cannot comprehend the eternal substance, he wrongfully concludes, the substance does not exist. “It can’t exist, because I can't see, touch, smell or touch it. Therefore it cannot exist. Thank God. Louis Pasteur believed in germs none of us could see at the time, if it was left up to Mr. Hawking we wouldn’t have homogenized milk.

Christopher Samba: Ex-Blackburn captain racially abused in Russia By Rafael Saakov BBC Russian Service Christopher Samba asked not to go out for the second half of Monday's Moscow derby between Dynamo and Torpedo due to the racist abuse he was receiving. A Russian Football Union (RFU) representative confirmed racist chants had been directed at the former Blackburn and QPR defender. "I can confirm Samba felt offended with Torpedo fans and didn't want to go on the pitch for the second half," Dynamo vice-president Gennady Soloviev said. "That's why he was replaced." Dynamo won the game 3-1 and manager Stanislav Cherchesov said afterwards that Samba had been substituted because of a calf injury. The defender spent six years at Blackburn, making 185 appearances between 2006 and 2012. The Congo international left for Anzhi Makhachkala but returned to England in January 2013 to play 10 games in a loan spell with QPR. Read

news.yahoo.com By by Charles Q. Choi, SPACE.com Contributor  Astronomers have just discovered the smallest known galaxy that harbors a huge, supermassive black hole at its core. The relatively nearby dwarf galaxy may house a  supermassive black hole  at its heart equal in mass to about 21 million suns. The discovery suggests that supermassive black holes may be far more common than previously thought. A supermassive black hole millions to billions of times the mass of the sun lies at the heart of nearly every large galaxy like the Milky Way. These monstrously huge black holes have existed since the infancy of the universe, some 800 million years or so after the Big Bang. Scientists are uncertain whether dwarf galaxies might also harbor supermassive black holes. [ Watch a Space.com video about the new dwarf galaxy finding ] "Dwarf galaxies usually refer to any galaxy less than roughly one-fiftieth the brightness of the Milky Way," said lead study autho

REUTERS/China Daily The fall caused some drastic damage, but Hu looked hopeful before the surgery. The ability to design and print replacement body parts that are customized to an individual's needs is revolutionizing medicine. This year alone, doctors have printed tubes that  stabilized a child's collapsed windpipe  and they've  installed the first ever 3D printed vertebra  in a 12-year-old boy. Now, in a surgery that was one of the first of its kind, doctors replaced part of a Chinese man's skull with 3D printed titanium mesh that was molded to perfectly restore the part of his skull that had been smashed in an accident. In October of 2013 the man, a 46-year-old named Hu who lives in a town near Xi'an,  was working  on a construction project when he fell. He plunged three stories and  smashed his head on a pile of wood . The fall caved in a significant portion of his skull, damaging his brain, causing vision loss, especially in his left

By Staff  Global News TORONTO – Former world heavyweight champ Mike Tyson lost it on live television Wednesday afternoon after a reporter referred to him as a “convicted rapist.” Tyson, who  met with Toronto mayor Rob Ford on Tuesday , was asked during an interview on 24-hour news channel CP24 if meeting with someone convicted of rape would impact Ford’s bid for re-election in October. He responded by swearing repeatedly at the reporter, even going as far as calling him a “piece of sh**.” When the reporter, Nathan Downer, commented they were on live television, Tyson replied “I don’t care. What are you going to do about it?” Downer tried to get the interview back on track, asking about Tyson’s one-man show Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth, which he is in Toronto to perform. Tyson didn’t seem interested in answering and brushed it off by saying it “speaks for itself” before

What is the difference between Floyd Mayweather and Ray Rice? A video Rice was sacked by his team and suspended by the NFL for punching his partner so why is Mayweather, a repeat batterer of women, earning $50m for a fight on Saturday night? Floyd Mayweather Jr. in training for his fight against Marcos Maidana at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Photograph: Steve Marcus/Reuters by  Alex McClintock The NFL player Ray Rice’s savage assault on his partner Janay Palmer in February is now national news. Rightly, there is outrage at Rice, who has been let go by his team, the Baltimore Ravens, and suspended indefinitely by the league. A “national conversation” about domestic violence has been opened, according to some. But really, the conversation is about  the surveillance video of Rice knocking Palmer out . That video is awful and confronting, but it’s not surprising. The details of the case were already known. As Amy Davidson puts it over at the  New Yorker

Running back Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens addresses a news conference with his wife Janay at the Ravens training center on May 23, 2014 in Owings Mills, Maryland. Rice spoke publicly for the first time since facing felony assault charges stemming from a February incident involving Janay at an Atlantic City casino. (Credit: Rob Carr/Getty Images) Janay Rice, wife of suspended NFL player Ray Rice, apparently posted a statement Tuesday on Instagram calling the situation a “nightmare.” “To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is a horrific (sic),” she wrote. The Baltimore Ravens released Ray Rice on Monday after a  video surfaced  showing him knocking her out with a punch in February. The Instagram post, reported by various media, appeared to be authentic.  Rice was originally suspended for two  games , a punishment that many saw as too lenient. Rice was just weeks away from returning to the

Killers Behind The Badge: NewsOne’s Investigative Series On Police Brutality In Black America Credit: newsone.com From  Abner Louima  and  Amadou Diallo  (pictured below right) to  Sean Bell (pictured left) and  Oscar Grant , Black men in the United States of America are murdered, beaten, and violated by officers of the law sworn to “protect and serve” them. Men, such as  Darryll C. Price , Lorenzo Collins ,  Roger Owensby Jr. , Jeffrey Irons , and  Timothy Thomas , were all found guilty and lynched for the crime of being Black in America.  From the Civil Rights era of hoses, tear gas and dogs, to the iconic imagery of the late- Rodney King being beaten  by officers, Black America has a  special and urgent need to understand the pathology behind police brutality.  The 4th amendment clearly   states that “the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures, shal

Ethnic profiling is the use of racial, ethnic, national, or religious characteristics as a way of singling out people for identity or security checks. It refers to law enforcement and security officers making decisions about who is suspicious based on race, ethnicity, or ethnic identity rather than reasonable suspicion. Is profiling legal? Police powers to stop and search vary from place to place. But profiling—the targeting of specific individuals or groups based on appearance—constitutes illegal discrimination under U.S., European, and international law.   Read more >> Source:  http://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/explainers/ethnic-profiling-what-it-and-why-it-must-end

Credit: trendhunter.com Police brutality occurs for a number of reasons: the most common is racial discrimination. 89% of the people who died in NYPD custody between the years 1990 and 1994 were African American or Hispanic (Elisha, Joshua & Zenobia, 2010). Some examples of this brutality are the cases involving Rodney King, Oscar Grant III, Patrick Hall and Abner Louima. 59% of all Americans in 1999 agreed that racial discrimination was a major problem. (The Struggle Against Racial Profiling, n.d.) A study was conducted that proved that “minority citizens are stopped by the police more than white citizens but minority driven vehicles are no more likely to have drug paraphernalia than whites’ vehicles” (Lundman, 2008, p.242). Racial discrimination is the main cause of police brutality. The U.S. History Encyclopedia defines police brutality as the use of any force exceeding that reasonably necessary to accomplish a lawful police purpose (2006). Most brutality began during

Credit:  guardianlv.com by Obeydah Chavez Police brutality is not a new topic, it is simply a controversy that has repeatedly come to light in the recent years. With cameras and video recording devices more easily accessible, documentation of these incidents has become more frequent. Yet a large percentage of police misconduct will go un-investigated, with many police officers admitting to turning a blind eye to these types of incidents. Racial profiling is not a new terminology, yet it is something that occurs daily in the United States, becoming almost a normality. The term “driving while black” is a form of racial profiling where law enforcement officers are more likely to stop an African-American under suspicion of possible criminal activity. Arizona’s strict immigration law has allowed law enforcement officers to detain, harass and arrest any Hispanic under the suspicion that they may be an illegal immigrant. These cases are not few and far between, with Hispanics a
