Creativity in science

 
The English philosopher Francis Bacon believed that science is as beautiful as a woman, is multifaceted, covers many aspects of life and a way to understand the mysteries of the universe.

Legend has it that the Sphinx was a monster with the face and voice of a woman with wings of an eagle, the body of a bull and a lion's claws. He lived on the crest of a mountain near the city of Thebes and the long road to ambush travelers passing by. Sphinx surprised them and raised the obscure and complicated puzzles, if they were not able to respond were devoured without mercy.

In this situation, the people of Thebes decided to offer the sovereignty of the city to the man who managed to discover the secret of the Sphinx.

Thus, Oedipus, a man wise and intelligent, although crippled by injuries in his youth, has decided to meet the challenge.
He appeared before the Sphinx full of confidence and determination. The Sphinx, then he raised one of his enigmas: What animal birth walks on four legs, then two and finally walk with walk with three? What I said quickly Oedipus: Man. Solve the riddle and the Sphinx while killing all people acclaiming him as the new king.

REALITY. Francis Bacon, English philosopher and politician, said that the ancient Greek myth of Egyptian origin helps explain what science is because it is beautiful as a woman, is multifaceted and covers many aspects of life as the Sphinx, as it inhabits the mountain ridges where the landscape is vast.

We also always asking riddles for things that are often not able to meet and become an obstacle in our lives. Here, in play Oedipus, the scientist who limps because the Sphinx faces with caution. Finally, do not forget the myth that one who is able to unravel the mysteries of life becomes master of nature, defeating the Sphinx.

This small studio is dedicated to all those who, like Francis Bacon in science have a way to understand the mysteries of the universe, who were fascinated by the night sky, the world of high- speed and large, the subatomic world and the wonders of biology. The tool that you use when you work in science is called the scientific method. The first step of this method is to have a great sense of wonder at natural phenomena.

Second, the scientist once surprised by nature, we must imagine their behavior, ie launch a hypothesis, it is a mental image that aims to replicate the law governing the phenomenon under study. Third Scientific will check the validity of his hypothesis. If the hypothesis is valid imagine modeling a law of nature, otherwise must imagine a new hypothesis that the previous one.

Here, we draw attention to the fact that if there is a science because nature is orderly and harmonious. If nature was arbitrary, we have never been able to predict its behavior mathematically.

Einstein said that when he began to take courses at the university, said he was "horrified" notes systematic and taking notes and not think, said that merely copying what the teacher writes Table had no meaning. Reason for class time amended by the direct study of works of great scholars like Kirchoff, Newton or Maxwell. Einstein was able to discover and break the prejudices of the century physicists earlier because I had a fresh mind and especially also had time to think. In fact, he said he did not understand how the mainstream education system was not completely finished at the creativity, the need to create a freedom of thought difficult to achieve with programs such tight.

It's funny, but there is a paradox, for Einstein, the scientist most admired in the world of physics, did not like the orthodox teaching. He said that there were two types of science: laboratory scientist who developed mechanical ideas developed by others, and the artist-empirical or scientific logic was able to imagine the laws of nature.

THE LIMITS OF CREATIVITY. The psychologist Desmond Morris has studied with infants and found that creativity is innate in man, a young child is given a sheet of paper and pencils and naturally develop they're creative abilities. But if on the other hand, these same children are subjected to a system of reward and stop creating because all the designs are made please. If we go a little further to say that there is a problem that affects science in itself and also in all fields of human knowledge: the specialization and, consequently, the fragmentation of life general and science in particular.

The fragmentation process of science is that the biggest threat to development as a form of human knowledge. Specialization is necessary to a certain extent because to delve into a particular aspect of nature must simplify and isolate the problem. The problem comes when after fragmentation forget new synthesis unifying find the challenge of human knowledge.

With advances in science, scientists are increasingly in the areas of reality incapacitate smaller than other sectors to understand the reality. Science benefits certainly fragmentation or simplification of reality in order to advance, but it needs time to unify efforts to control their growth. Fragmentation, the result of Cartesian rationalism that threatens the roots of science, threatens all walks of life.

May begin to consider how science or true creativity, currently reside in arriving to bind all these different aspects of human knowledge and give them an idea of ​​the whole. Only a humanism backbone can answer in-depth the problem of creativity.

assertiveness defend their rights and life positions

Assertive or assertive behavior is a term in the first half of the 20th century, presented by New York psychologist Andrew Salter1 denote the ability to express and defend their rights without violating the other. It was. "Freedom of expression of all emotions vis-à-vis a third party, with the exception of fear" recently by Joseph Wolpe, a psychiatrist and professor of medicine in the United States, which he developed Several popular books were 20th in the second half of the century to promote assertiveness, especially published in connection with personal development.

Beginning

The word comes from the French assertive assertiveness, "say" noun formed from the verb to assert, affirm, assert, defend their rights, defend their views formed. Assertiveness can be translated into French of assertiveness.

Definition

Assertiveness is the art to convey a message without passivity difficult, but not aggressive.

Some schools of thought suggest variations in this definition, such as the principles of honesty, or Palo Alto radical advocates that we must always speak his mind.

In the context of human relationships, assertiveness is presented as a behaviors that want to use the refusal, three types of negative behaviors:

Aggressive behavior (or rule by force);

Submissive behaviors that may occur flights or task;

Manipulation of behavior (or rule by deceit), sometimes expressed as mental manipulation.

The choice assertive behavior after the adoption of the "life position" corresponds.

Assertiveness is studied in areas such as social psychology and management.

Applications

Generate as much for Nonviolent Communication, a domino effect would increase or partners and the quality of the relationship and understanding mutuelle 2 a time, a virtuous circle.

Although assertiveness is not a technique, but an attitude to develop techniques for implementation.

Management

Skills related to assertiveness sont3:

Respect and be respected

Develop good personal insurance

Often identify their attitude

Know how to deal with passive aggressive and manipulative behavior,

Communicate effectively.

Think assertive techniques

Fogging technique is to start with a search for common ground insulation, on which agreement is possible before. Contradict the part of speech to which oppose4

The technique, which is known as "Broken Record" (or broken record) simply repeats a query each time a view of resistance illegitimate. The term refers to the record scratched on the surface, reproducing the same sequence loop. A disadvantage of this practice is that the application of its strength, as it is repeated, which are then turned against the user must repressive is available loses measured. Another disadvantage is that in order to manipulate, in contrast to its purpose, which, in some cases designed as aggressive or as an attempt.

The technique of "negative view" five asks a surplus of criticism, precisely.

The technique of the statement of "I" would make their wishes and opinions expressed without judgment about other perspectives.

Transactional Analysis

Human behavior and life positions

With respect to the transaction analysis corresponds life position to be assertive "I'm OK, you're OK" (ideal relationship as transactional analysis). Deposits assertive mutual respect of opinions, it is because I like something that others do not love without reason.

Diagram to: human behavior and life positions

I'm OK, you're OK: Assertiveness

I'm OK, you're not OK: Assault (or rule by force) / manipulation (or rule by stealth)

I'm not OK, you're OK: Presentation

I'm not okay, you're not OK: Abandon

Reviews of these techniques

Some authors say that the assertive techniques sometimes doubtful whether its use should be able to form the manipulation6 who would disagree with the first principle to deny profound exactly cause this behavior.

If Assertiveness is the art of concession and compromise that the reduction of assertiveness on "Tips and Tricks" is sometimes seen as a perversion of the meaning of the risk of falling into caricature. Create assertiveness techniques or methods are,therefore a risk of conflict with the definition of perseverance.

In 1970 and 1980, while assertiveness was popular, some of the participants practice "to do evil things in the name of perseverance, cold as someone again, they wanted to get" 7

The most dangerous long-term risk associated with breast implants Implant OUTSIDE


When a woman chooses breast augmentation surgery, there is a risk of breast cancer should consider long-term implants. This risk is termed implant rupture.

During the 90s, an implant rupture and leakage become holders. Women of all backgrounds were accusing her breast implants leak silicone as the main catalyst for their health problems. These women had finally lawsuits against manufacturers of silicone implants that ultimately led companies to declare bankruptcy and close their doors. Extreme controversy has prompted the FDA to ban the use of silicone gel implants indefinitely devices. It took the FDA 14 years of clinical research before finally approved silicone device for use without restrictions again in the states of the United States.

Most people think that the liquid silicone controversy began in the 90s. In fact, the controversy began in the 60s, almost as soon as the implant is made available to breast augmentation procedures. As a direct result of the controversy surrounding liquid silicone gel, the device saline implant was invented as a safe alternative for women seeking breast enhancement with breast augmentation.

Despite the obvious safety problems associated with silicone filler in recent years silicone implant has been widely promoted by American women. Favoritism lasted until 1992, when the FDA banned the use of implants the U.S. For for the next fourteen years, the device saline implant has an unexpected monopoly within the industry.

As you can imagine, manufacturers of saline implants enjoyed windfall profits, while other manufacturers of silicone gel implants had to meet various design applications by the FDA. FDA ban ended in n / a The FDA has given its stamp of approval for the use of implants, the saline device is in disgrace. American women seem to greatly facilitate device silicone gel implants saline into the device.

The difference between the two devices is their filling implant. The device uses a saltwater brine is very similar to human body fluids. The device uses a silicone liquid silicone gel. Both devices will drain your body must fill in their outer shell is broken. While the liquid silicone is known to be a catalyst for many ailments negative saline is virtually harmless to the human body.

When saline implants rupture, they deflate quickly. Complete deflation occurs usually within 48 hours. The advantage of this is that it allows the detection of visible implant rupture. The saline that leaks into the body of the implant will be absorbed into the bloodstream and possibly purged from the body via the urine. A saline implant is really the safest currently available implant when it is the rupture and leakage of the implant.

Breaking device siliconeBy slowly deflated. The speed at which the silicone is leaking into the body is barely noticeable and can take several years before enough leak occurred visibly deflate the implant and allow visible detection. The low leakage makes it very difficult for anyone to detect a perforated silicone implant - Board certified plastic surgeons cannot even detect a ruptured silicone implant. The solution is a woman with silicone devices have an MRI every two years to help detect leaks and ruptures. Recommendation MRI was established by the FDA.

To read about the negative health effects associated with silicone gel implants, you can see an FDA study in the late 90s. The report summarizes a research study on women with silicone devices for a period of at least 10 years. The information contained in the report are quite surprising. One of the most disturbing pieces of information discovered during the study was that 60% of silicone implants had ruptured before its 10th anniversary and has been slowly leaking silicone gel into the body of the woman. It should be noted that silicon devices have experienced significant improvements in design since the report was completed and new models are much less prone to breakage. The report is free to view and download. It lies on the FDA website.

There is a new type of implant that could cause implant rupture and leakage problems of the past. New cohesive gel implants used solid state silicone filler. The filling cannot leak fluid, as it contains no liquid. The first data collected elsewhere in cohesive gel implants are very promising. However, the FDA has not concluded its clinical research on new medical device, and it may take many years before the implant is commercially available in the majors.

If you are considering breast augmentation surgery, it is important that you understand that the health risks associated with the procedure itself and long-term risks to health associated with breast implant devices have inside your body. To purchase the latest and updated information on breast implants will have to schedule an initial consultation with a licensed, practicing plastic surgeon.
