From the page: "Correlations are a way of catching a scientist s attention, but the models and mechanisms that explain them are how we make the predictions that not only advance science, but generate practical applications. One only needs to look at a promising field that lacks a strong theoretical foundation high-temperature superconductivity springs to mind to see how badly the lack of a theory can impact progress. Put in more practical terms, would Anderson be willing to help test a drug that was based on a poorly understood correlation pulled out of a datamine?%20These%20days%2C%20we%20like%20our%20drugs%20to%20have%20known%20targets%20and%

A petition to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay:
From the page: "The Guantánamo military commissions are a serious mistake. It's time to shut down Guantánamo Bay, and move proceedings to a civilian court of law or a traditional military court operating in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice where constitutional guarantees apply. "
If you care about justice and wish to help reclaim the honor America once had, sign this petition now.

From the page: "Software patents are negative for most of us. In fact, even some of those who demand or defend software patents today would deeply regret it later. It would only be too late then."
Large multinational corporations are pushing hard to control free speech by patenting general ideas that are used in computer software. These patents remain in effect for 20 years (a veritable lifetime in computer years). Copyrights are already enough protection to encourage profiting from innovation.
This is a huge problem you should learn about and act to prevent.

A great video of Ron Paul sticking it to the neocon media. Ron Paul is truly a thorn in the neocon sector of the Republic Party. If the party can't get their act together and oust these fucking neocons, they deserve a socialist like Obama.

I liked this, but let's get real here. School is prison. Principals are prison wardens. Cliques are prison gangs.
School shouldn't be mandatory, anyway. If you just want to socialize and not learn, you don't deserve to have the opportunity of school. If schools weren't used merely as warehouses for children, maybe the quality of education the schools could provide might actually be worth a damn.
