2. It Doesn't Take an Einstein May 15, 2008 Stop me if this sounds familiar to you, but I feel it bears repeating at least a few more times. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Ring any bells to you? It is a quote attributed to famed theoretical physicist Albert Einstein. While he may not have specifically been talking about advertising, the idea still holds true and bears consideration. As consumer culture becomes increasingly fickle, it has become clear that companies can no longer rely on customer loyalty and simple word of mouth to drive business growth. If you don’t ...

3. The History of Jaeger Lecoultre Watches May 12, 2008 A brilliant inventor and self-taught watchmaker, Antoine-LeCoultre founded his first workshop in 1833, following the invention of a machine to produce watchmaking pinions. Ever since, the Manufacture Jaeger-Lecoultre has developed constantly around the founder’s original workshops. Surprisingly enough, it was neither a physicist nor an engineer who first measured the micron; it was Antoine LeCoultre, in 1844. He had created watch components that were so perfect no tool could actually detect their degree of inaccuracy. He followed that up by inventing the world’s most accurate instrument: ...

4. The Feldenkrais Method - Awareness Through Movement May 01, 2008 Dr Moshe Feldenkrais was the originator of the Awareness Through Movement system.. He was a mechanical and electrical engineer, physicist and judo expert. He believed that good health should lead to a person functioning well on all levels of life. His theory was not linked to sickness or disability in the usually accepted medical sense. The system can be classified as a form of mind-body intervention. The name Awareness Through Movement was used by Feldenkrais when he showed his scientific collegues how he was learning to walk normally with a seriously damaged knee. He gave them specific ...

5. Feldenkrais Information December 31, 2007 Moshe Feldenkrais, who died aged 80 in 1984, was an engineer and physicist who worked on France's early atomic research program and on the British antisubmarine project during World War II. But it was the martial arts, and the body mechanics involved in them, that most fascinated him. The Feldenkrais Method was developed through 40 years of research by Moshe Feldenkrais, Ph.D., D.Sc., a Russian-born physicist, mechanical engineer, educator and martial artist. A severe injury led Dr. Feldenkrais to a lifelong investigation into ways of improving the body's ability to function. The recurre... (read more) Author: Francis Adam

6. The Vacuum Flask alias Thermos October 09, 2007 Everyone has heard the term “Thermos”, but most don’t know much about why it works and where it came from. A good “Thermos” keeps your food or beverage hot or cold for an extended period of time. Over a century ago in 1892 Sir James Dewar, a chemist and physicist, invented the vacuum flask. They were called Dewar Flasks. The first vacuum flasks commercially made were by a German company named Thermos in 1904. In 1963 the word “Thermos” was declared a genericied trademark. Today most do not ask for a vacuum flask, but instead ask for a thermos. Simply put, a thermos is a vessel whi... (read more) Author: Warren Hull

7. When Do We Say Something is Energy Efficient? October 04, 2007 Something is energy efficient if it uses energy efficiently. It can be used to refer to energy conversion efficiency which refers to the proportion between the amount of input of energy used in the system compared to the useful output. Useful output can mean either heat, mechanical power, or electrical power. Energy efficiency was brought to the attention of the average person on the street mainly because of the 1973 oil crisis. Amory Lovins, a physicist, popularized the concept of boosting energy efficiency rather than promoting heightened energy production at around the same time. Lovin...

8. A Sense Of Humor Increases Creativity June 07, 2007 Does a sense of humor make for a more creative mind? Perhaps. There are certainly many creative and intelligent people who also like to have a good laugh. Consider the following two examples. American physicist Richard Feynman was a joint recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965, for his work on quantum electrodynamics. He is credited with the concept and early exploration of quantum computing. He also had a very well developed sense of humor. Here is how he is described in Wikipedia: "As well as being an inspirational lecturer, bongo player, notorious practical joker, a... (read more) Author: Steve Gillman

9. The Science Museum: not just a tourist hotspot February 23, 2007 Sir William Bragg, the eminent physicist, once stated, "The important thing in science is not so much to obtain new facts as to discover new ways of thinking about them." The profundity and truthfulness of this statement seems nowhere more relevant than in the National Science Museum in London - one of the country's most loved historical institutions. As part of the National Museum of Science and Industry, the Science Museum is more than a tourist attraction for London's many visitors: it preserves some of the world's most impressive scientific artefacts, while constantly showcasing new tale...

10. How I Made Millions Betting Horse Races December 20, 2006 I spent 24 years in the racing game. When I first got into horse racing, I believed because I am a Physicist, that I could soon Master whatever factors were necessary to beat the other players. At the Track you are playing against the other players. The Track simply puts on the show. They take their cut for costs and profits, and all the rest goes into the wager pools. I know a lot of big players that complain about the Tracks cut or Take-out as it is called. I never cared, because I am not a percentage player. I go for the throat. I want to win big wagers with the smallest sum at risk as pos... (read more) Author: Donald Maxwell-Diener

11. My Choice - A Personal Tinnitus Story November 02, 2006 I have devoted my life to the study of sound. I am not a physicist, a doctor, a scientist, nor an audiologist. I am a master of sound, an accomplished concert pianist. Since the age of eight, I’ve studied the relationship between the body and the vibration of musical notes. What I couldn’t have known is that one day I would deeply yearn for the one note I would never hear again – the note of “no sound.” Perhaps the tinnitus was caused by all of those over-the-counter decongestants I was taking for my flu, or maybe it was the stress of being at the pinnacle of my performing career, or ma...

12. Newly Revealed 3600-Year Old Wisdom Text Describes Extinction of the Dinosaurs July 16, 2006 In recent years, scientists have begun to challenge the popular K-T extinction event theory advanced by Nobel laureate physicist, Luis Alvarez. In 1990, he found evidence of a large impact resulting in an Extinction Level Event (E.L.E) in what is now Chicxulub, Mexico. His theory that this E.L.E. wiped out the dinosaurs some 65 million years ago was soon adopted. However, an increasing number of modern scientists are now casting doubts on his theory. Furthermore, a newly released 3600-year old wisdom text called The Kolbrin Bible supports these challenges to Alvarez's theory with a prescie... (read more) Author: Marshall Masters

13. The Sales Solution: E=mc² June 15, 2006 Albert Einstein is best known for his theory of relativity. Every school kid knows his famous equation E=mc². This brilliant physicist was also widely quoted on a variety of topics. While not recognized at all as a salesperson, Mr. Einstein was always promoting ideas and concepts, attempting to gain acceptance for them from a sceptical audience. Sounds like sales to me! I would be surprised if you have not heard his famous line, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Do you find yourself doing the same thing repeat... (read more) Author: Clayton Shold

14. My Identity Crisis January 19, 2005 My Identity Crisis By David Leonhardt When we are young it is all so simple. We know exactly what I want to "be" when we grow up. You know what it's like: "I want to be a fireman." I want to be a ballerina." "I want to be a movie star." "I want to be a nuclear physicist specializing in embryonic schisms in post-menopausal subatomic particles." This aspect of growing up came back to haunt me recently when reading a magazine article by someone working in television who had always wanted to be a celebrity. To paraphrase her words, "It never occurred to me that I might have to actua... (read more) Author: David Leonhardt
