How to Spot Bad Science
|
 Dr. Ben Goldacre, an epidemiologist, shines some light on a bunch of bullshit and how to know when you're being fed bullshit. http://www.ted.com/talks/ben_goldacre_ba...ience.html This guy talks with a brittish accent and very fast, but if you can understand him it's awesome. It's something useful to everyone, so I thought I'd share. Enjoy, discuss. 42

"Thanks to this sort of manipulation of data.... Mainstream medicine is made to look untrustworthy / Without all the data how can any scientist - medico make any conclusion at all?"
...is this why the religious turn to the god authority?? "The Universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest." G'Kar-B5
Sad sad... The medicine industry is conceiving us for money. What a surprise

Einstein When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life. - John Lennon
ted.com is an awesome website. I hope everyone will add it to their book marks, and visit it frequently... and share with us all when they find something awesome.

This clip was huge. Good clip.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
