The white shirts experiment...
Here is an amazing on-line adventure with some unexpected insight on the universe that surrounds you.
First, a clarification. In order to begin this journey, that will take just a few minutes, you have to play by the rules.
The rules, by the way, are very simple, and all you need is just a little self discipline. There is no big brother watching over you. You will be your own judge.
That's it. Ready?
Clicking on the link below will take you (assuming Java is installed on your machine and is active in your browser) to a page with a small video screen with a green arrow at the bottom. Clicking on the green arrow will launch the movie.
In the short movie you will see a small group of boys and girls wearing black or white shirts that are playing with two balls.
Your goal is to count how many times the ball is passed by those wearing white shirts. It’s that simple.
Remember, count just the passes of the ball by those wearing white.
(Do not run the movie more than once! - remember, self discipline)
Are you ready? Let's go...
Once the movie is over, write down the number of passes you have counted, and continue by moving to step two. No Cheating!)
If you survived this experiment, you can watch other projects from Daniel J. Simons and his experiments in Visual Cognition & Human Performance there.

It's Saturday morning and we're still at our strong point from the night before, a clearing between a set of buildings on the southern edge of the city. The advance has been swift, but pockets of resistance still exist. In fact, we're taking sniper fire from both the front and the rear.
Weapons Company uses its 81's (mortars) where they spot muzzle flashes. The tanks do some blasting of their own. By mid-morning, we're told we're moving north again. We'll be back clearing some of the area we passed yesterday. There are also reports that the mosque, where ten insurgents were killed and five wounded on Friday may have been re-occupied overnight...

A great white shark breaches the water in False Bay, Cape Town, South Africa
A great white shark breaches the water in False Bay, Cape Town, South Africa, in this undated file photo. A shark of the same species attacked and presumably killed an elderly woman, Tyna Webb, as she swam Monday Nov. 15, 2004 off Sunny Cove in Fish Hoek as she had for 17 years. About 15 people witnessed the attack and she was presumed dead, officials said.

Bush vs Kerry
