Super Silver Haze

Image
Super Silver Haze Greenhouse Seed Co. Hybrid Origins: Skunk x NL x Haze Flowering: 56-63 days Harvest: late October Originally bred by an obscure figure in the Holland marijuana scene, Super Silver haze has risen to become the Tiger Woods of the pot world. First place winner of three consecutive High Times Cannabis Cups for the hydro category (1997, 1998, 1999), Super Silver Haze also claimed first prize in the High Times Grand Cup in 1998. Super Silver Haze combines the stellar genetics of three plants – the Skunk, Northern Lights, and Haze varieties – to deliver and all-around good indoor grower. This variety can also be grown outside in the equatorial zone, approximately between 35 degrees latitude North and South. While she is best grown hydroponically, Super Silver Haze has not let her stardom go to her head. She will produce highly resinous and strongly pungent flowers in most indoor growing setups. The colas get pointed on top when mature, and are more open than compac...

Book of the Day "The Ebony Exodus Project: Why Some Black Women Are Walking out on Religion and Others Should Too"

The Ebony Exodus Project: Why Some Black Women Are Walking out on Religion and Others Should Too    Black women are the single most religious demographic in the United States, yet they are among the poorest, least educated, and least healthy groups in the nation.    Drawing on the author's own past experience as an evangelical minister and her present work as a secular counselor and researcher, The Ebony Exodus Project makes a direct connection between the church and the plight of black women.   Through interviews with African American women who have left the church, the author reveals the shame and suffering often caused by the church - and the resulting happiness, freedom, and sense of purpose these women have felt upon walking away from it.    This audiobook calls on other black women to honestly reflect on their relationship with religion and challenges them to consider that perhaps the answers to their problems rest not inside a church, but ...

Book of the Day "Emancipation of a Black Atheist"

Image
   Great journeys often start with a single question. For D. K. Evans, a professional in the Christian-dominated South, that question was, " Why Do I Believe in God??? "    That simple query led him on a years-long search to better understand the nature of religion and faith, particularly as it applies to the Black community.    While many taking such a journey today might immerse themselves in the writing of Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens, Evans took inspiration not only from John Henrik Clarke, Yosef-Ben Jochannan, Hubert Harrison, and John G. Jackson, champions of a rich Black tradition of challenging religious orthodoxy, but also from many others in his own community who had similarly come to question their core religious beliefs.    While this journey eventually led him to discount the notion of God, he calls on all to ask their own questions, particularly those within the Black community who act on b...

Scientists Have Created New Type of Living Organisms

Scientists Have Created New Type of Living Organisms...  These “biological machines” could one day live inside the human body.    Scientists have created a new life form using stem cells scraped from frog embryos. Researchers from the University of Vermont (UVM) and Tufts University built these, now termed "xenobots," named after the African frog species Xenopus laevis. The xenobots are one millimeter-wide and act like living, self-healing cells, but they are technically robots.    They can walk, swim and work together! Refined, they could be used inside the human body to reprogram tumors, deliver medicine or remove plaque from arteries.    "These are novel living machines," says Joshua Bongard, computer scientist who co-led the research. "They're neither a traditional robot nor a known species of animal. It's a new class of artifact: a living, programmable organism."    Using a supercomputer, researchers from UVM ran an evolution...

Book of the Day "The Way of the Heathen: Practicing Atheism in Everyday Life"

Image
   So you're an atheist. Now what? The way we deal with life - with love and sex, pleasure and death, reality and making stuff up - can change dramatically when we stop believing in gods, souls, and afterlives. When we leave religion - or if we never had it in the first place - where do we go?    With her unique blend of compassion and humor, thoughtfulness and snark, Greta Christina most emphatically does not propose a single path to a good atheist life. She offers questions to think about, ideas that may be useful, and encouragement to choose your own way. She addresses complex issues in an accessible, down-to-earth style, including: Why we're here, sexual transcendence, how humanism helps with depression - except when it doesn't - stealing stuff from religion, and much more. Aimed at new and not-so-new atheists, questioning and curious believers, Christina shines a warm, fresh light on the only life we have. Listen to FREE Audio Book Read on Kindle Order H...

Why Are You Atheists So Angry?: 99 Things That Piss Off the Godless     Why are atheists angry? Is it because they're selfish, joyless, lacking in meaning, and alienated from God? Or is it because they have legitimate reasons to be angry - and are ready to do something about it?      Armed with passionate outrage, absurdist humor, and calm intelligence, popular blogger Greta Christina makes a powerful case for outspoken atheist activism, and explains the empathy and justice that drive it.     This accessible, personal, down-to-earth book speaks not only to atheists, but also to believers who want to understand the so-called "new" atheism.     Why Are You Atheists So Angry? drops a bombshell on the destructive force of religious faith - and gives a voice to millions of angry atheists.

Book of the Day "Religion and the Decline of Magic"

Image
   Witchcraft, magical healing, divination, ancient prophecies, ghosts, and fairies were taken very seriously by people at all social and economic levels in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century, from the belief that a blessed amulet could prevent the assaults of the Devil to the use of the same charms to recover stolen goods.    At the same time the Protestant Reformation attempted to take the magic out of religion, and scientists were developing new explanations of the universe. Keith Thomas's classic analysis of beliefs held on every level of English society begins with the collapse of the medieval Church and ends with the changing intellectual atmosphere around 1700, when science and rationalism began to challenge the older systems of belief.Helplessness in the face of disease and human disaster helped to perpetuate this belief in magic and the supernatural.    As Keith Thomas shows, England during these years resembled in many ways today's "underdeve...
