Shall we be able to sense brainwaves in the future?

In my novel, The Strangers, two cyborgs named Naadir and Ashante are able to communicate with one another by using an EEG device which is implanted by their brains. With EEG, they have a virtual gate that can be kept ajar indefinitely so each can perceive a buzz of what the other is thinking, without being disturbed.

When one of the cyborgs wants to communicate directly to the other, he pushes that virtual gate and full communication commences.

I have always assumed that this was just my idea, simple science fiction.

Mistake!

As I can see in today's article from CNN, a basic device is already able to achieve a similar result, although for now restricted only to controlling a small flying drone.

In this article, futurist Tiana Sinclair says that the drone she controls is a huge biosensor. She also believes that problems in our world can sometimes be fixed with the use of technology.

One can only wander what the future has in store for us!

Review: Tesco "free from" ginger cookies (with gluten-free oat flour) wheat, dairy and gluten free

Tesco "free from" ginger cookies http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=268624669 Hello everyone! Winter is here and it's been snowing in Norfolk - as well as in the rest of the U.K. This is the time when all the resolutions of eating only fresh, nutritious food, raw and healthy, disappear at the same speed that the outside temperature decreases. Two weeks ago I decided to go wheat free - just like that - or cold turkey, someone would rather say more idiomatically. Anyway, after reading the first 90 pages of The Wheat Belly recipe book by Dr. Davies, anybody with a brain will start wondering if wheat is such a healthy food after all. This is not to say that Dr. Davies is 100% correct in his assumption, but let's discuss this in another post - suffice to say that in the middle of January, when most people enjoy wheat-based dishes such as pasta, bread, pasties, cakes etc. I suddenly decided to see if I would...

How to become a Family Herbalist

I must say that this course has changed my life. My family and I have not been to the doctor since I completed it last year. Today I found a great movie where two medical doctors prove Dr. Christopher right: animal products are the main cause of modern disease. Can I dispute with statistics… .? Fork over knives - vegan is best, really

Raw veggies dinner

Raw veggies dinner Yesterday we had a raw veggie dinner. I thought we were going to starve... but after chewing all the veggies I felt completely satisfied. Weird! All I did was cutting lots of different veggies and putting 2 in each plate, and then I allowed :) some Japanese sauces and raw mayonnaise, chili sauce etc to those who wish to change the taste of things. :) The bean sprouts were swimming in soy sauce. I also used a can of green beans (French beans), cold, just turned upside down. (I know! Not living!) It was very tasty! Perhaps if I can learn to make raw burgers and crackers I can add those too...so far we have plain monkey nuts with our almost-raw dinners. Bon appetit!
