		<title>Luck can be made &#8211; in the brain and mind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several articles about the mental differences between lucky and unlucky people have come out recently, all apparently triggered by the book the author of this current article is trying to sell. However, the ideas involved are worth thinking about for esoteric practicioners and explorers, so I picked this article as an example of the bunch, [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Catal Hoyuk &#8220;map&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As some may know, the archaeological site once called Catal Huyuk, now usually called Catalhoyuk (usually said to mean &#8220;forked mound&#8221; or a double mound) is an interest of mine, kind of a hobby.

		<title>Memory as a search problem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This Sciam article discusses a recent experiment with memory, that illustrates some of the complex detail that our memory can store. The experiment demonstrated that with a visual image to trigger memory recall, ordinary humans were able to quickly match and compare a really large number of details.
I thought a boingboing&#8217;s poster&#8217;s take on this [...]]]></description>

The Flag of Earth is a public domain design that can be used freely by everyone. It shows the blue &#8220;sphere&#8221; of the earth against the larger yellow arc of the sun, orbited by a white moon, against the black field of space.

		<title>Giordano Bruno &#8211; highly readable review of a new biography</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I always think a good review can be as useful to read and absorb as a book, in this modern age of information compression, sorting, and filtering. If you are interested in the history and character of Giordanao Bruno, this page is worth visiting.
I find the emphasis on Bruno&#8217;s involvement with the renaissance re-creation of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
The Mineral of the Day
Because I think these have a real beauty to them.
Much of human history, and the power of himans, comes from our relationship to minerals. Using stones as colors, hammers, grinders, scrapers, and eventually sophisticated flint blade technology, the paleo and neolithic cultures. Clay and ceramcs, the chalcolithic cultures. Then metals, gold, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I first started this website I included a link to the website of Jan Cox, not because I knew the fellow, but because he seemed like a more interesting than average teacher, influenced by the Gurdjieff materials, but with a style of his own. And he had one of the few websites of a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I thought this was an interesting little article. I have a great deal of hope and anticipation about what this kind of brain imaging can tell us about brain and mind.
Brain Scans Reveal Why Meditation Works
