Hi everyone,

My name is Martin, and I'm a research assistant at Kings College, Denmark Hill. I'm currently recruiting volunteers for a study looking at different patterns of brain activity between people who meditate and people who don't. Right now I'm looking for control participants (i.e. people who DON'T meditate) to take part. You only need to be right handed and available for a couple of hours on either a Tuesday or a Thursday, though unfortunately due to the equipment we use I cannot test people with dreadlocks or afro hairstyles, sorry!

The study involves the use of EEG, a completely non-invasive and painless procedure that allows us to record brain activity through the scalp. It involves wearing a cap with some electrodes attached to it and the application of a small amount of gel (which can easily be washed out).

If you are interested in helping out with scientific research (and also seeing what your brain looks like when it is thinking!)or would like to know more please get in touch either by replying to this post, or emailing me at [email protected]. To sweeten the deal I can also compensate you ?15 for your time.

Thanks!

Martin

  The venn diagram of people who are personally really bothered by the noise from GALA and are also deeply concerned about the local bat population looks remarkably just like a circle.

  Language is a fluid and evolving thing and as it changes the original meaning of words can alter to take on a new true meaning or meanings. Original meaning is not the same as true meaning. Take the word literal which is now used to mean the very opposite of how the word used to be used, irritating for some of us but demonstrates the English language is vibrant and alive and also very subjective. But I must go and make myself a cup of tea now or I will literally die of thirst

  With the right type of feeder arrangement the access by parakeets, squirrels and rats can be eliminated completely. Likewise, the spread of disease can be minimised. The best method is to hang individual feeders inside a wire cage that has a 2"x2" mesh on all sides that is mounted above ground. Being above ground it stops slugs and rats getting in. And with mesh on the bottom,the risk of transmitting disease from any droppings is eliminated. Small birds feel safe from predators in three These cages are available online for about £33

  It is worthwhile noting that the original technical meaning was 'a reduction of 10%', which does not, to my mind, chime at all with 'drastically reduce'. I know that's how it is, I think lazily, often used nowadays but it does allow 'decimate' to be used so loosely that it loses meaning. And it can be confusing to those who know it's original meaning. I think that the fact that decimate and devastate are close homonyms does not help things here.
