Convergence Points in Science and Spiritual Philosophy; Zero Point Energy
Once in a great while, there comes an idea, or a set of concepts, that completely takes hold of and revolutionizes the way that we live. In the 1500’s individuals of the likes of Kepler, Copernicus, and Galileo, provided for us a drastic new way of looking at the universe, at the cost of their own persecution from the Catholic Church, a fault that was not recognized and pardoned until more recently. Just as the brilliance of Locke, Descartes, or Voltaire gave us a new understanding of reason, scientific methodology, and progress during the age of enlightenment. Einstein left his mark amongst this select few as he introduced to us the cosmological constant, his theories on general and specific relativity, not to mention what was arguably his greatest achievement in his discovery of the photoelectric effect, to which he went on to win a Nobel Prize for. And, so it would seem that in our current epoch of human history, that we find that this pattern continues via the field of quantum physics, that we behold once more a sentimentality that undeniably alters the way that we think about the universe and our place in it, as is found in the alluring yet enigmatic ideology surrounding nanosecond or zero-point energy.

We Fell Down
We Fell Down And Got Saved? John W. Gilmore I climbed up the steep incline. There were large boulders, loose gravel, and paths slanted on tight angles that could send me sliding down into the ravine 100ft below. Why was I doing this? I guess I wanted freedom. They said they were here...the last few humans left after the Artificial Life Form (ALF) takeover, living like animals among the rocks and stones. I took a few more steps until I found a very small crack in the side of the cliff. I felt sick and tired. It had been a three day journey. I pushed my way in and collapsed to the floor.

June Horoscopes (All Signs)
We are tired. We are fed up, and we can all agree that we want change this month, however the way the universe is catapulting these changes onto us; well that's another story. Maybe all of these inconveniences are popping up because you need to slow down, maybe you wouldn't forget your keys or wallet if you just took a moment to pause this morning instead of reaching for that phone. Life is all about moving in a certain delicate pace, its not about the rush. June is teaching us all about this but in varying different ways and severities of teaching. Dropping what doesn't matter and picking up as well as rediscovering what truly does.

A Message Left Just For (US) Humankind
My story will be about a person named David T. Berry. I browsed videos; on amazon prime video, I came across this Short series of videos; there are 8 videos. It's called 'The Knowledge Of The Forevertime'; So I started at episode 3, and; it's about all the cave paintings around the world and how they all have the same type of paintings no matter what cave you may enter into on this planet. I love science, cosmology, space, and I'm a sci-fi junky, and, at least, I can admit to my addiction. So I pressed pause and went and threw some. I went and threw some popcorn in the microwave, and then it was on from there.,

How We Saved Haykitor
She marched right up to the commander and spit in his face. “You don’t own me. You don’t own shit!” Craylin didn’t have a moment to prepare for the crack of the commander’s large steak of a hand upon her face. It brought little stars into her eyesight and she stood stunned for only a moment before breaking into a deep undulating cackle. As the cackle grew louder a small fluttering sound could be heard. The commander looked over his shoulder to the sky.

How Ewan McGregor Had An Epic Lightsaber Duel With A Famous Musician

Gallagher claimed that he gave McGregor his first lightsaber combat instruction, but McGregor did not seem to recall much instruction going on. Either way, he was able to give some much-needed details in his Jimmy Kimmel interview.

The Ways That 'Star Wars' Fans Would Help Fix The Franchise
People have long speculated what they would do if they were in charge for a day. Whether it be their employer, the boss of their favorite creative studio, or the leader of the free world, everybody thinks they know exactly what to do to fix things: reinstate casual Fridays, complete the unfinished The Clone Wars episodes and release them as the "The Lost Missions Volume 2," or sue for world peace. While fans are always certain that these ideas are in the best interest of all involved, there are always dissenters. Especially in a fanbase as historically vocally divided as the Star Wars fanbase.
