POPSA Dream Interpretation: Tuneups for the Brain “I argue that dreaming is not a parallel state but that it is consciousness itself, in the absence of input from the senses,” Once people are awake, he argued, their brain essentially revises its dream images to match what it sees, hears and feels " the dreams are “corrected” by the senses.

POPS12 Google Wave Invitations I can give out 12 to fellow clippers if you are still enthusiastic enough. First priority to those who are already following me on Clipmarks. FYI, I don't use Wave, it is not useful for me at the moment.

POPSReligious sensitivities on all sides The reason I'm clipping this is because religious sensitivities are back in the news and Muslims are not the only one apparently offended all the time. The other reason I'm clipping this is because I've been watching Curb Your Enthusiasm (not this episode though) and I think Larry David should have folded his show last season. The episodes in the new season are utterly ridiculous and not funny. Like Seinfeld, his show has always been brilliant though but I think he has lost it by now.

POPSPeople give birth and die on Facebook (internet actually)
The thing about Facebook and Twitter is that unlike earlier times on the Internet, these two companies have shaped the perception of people connected to each other more closely than ever before. Everyone is on-line on FB or Twitter or both!. Not that people were not connected earlier via email or email groups (and some exclusively still are), but FB and Twitter are humongous instant messenger type services where everyone perceives as something where you know others are on (email does not give a perception that you are on and individual instant-messenger were always individual). So as Facebook comes up with ideas on what to do with people who are dying on the internet, I think they should also come up with some special arrangements when people are born. I'm not talking about some FB application (I hate them and they are annoying). There is no denying that babies are being born on Facebook every day (it sounds weird but that is a truth).
