Scientist proves that humans are psychic There's a reason why most people don't consider parapsychology a real science: the methods are usually suspect and the results are usually crazy. But a leading social journal is publishing a paper proving that people can predict the future, and this time, the research is solid. Precognition is the ability to accurately predict future events without having any information about those events, and it's impossible. If it weren't impossible, it would mean that there was some kind of totally bizarre violation of the rules of time and space going on. Despite the inclination of the rest of the universe to behave itself, one psychologist has been able to provide experimental evidence that humans are actually capable of precognition.

Review of Galantamine: the Lucid Dreaming Pill So you’re considering the red pill… Galantamine has emerged as THE lucid dreaming pill. This natural supplement has been used for centuries in China as a memory enhancer, and was even noted by the ancient Greeks for its powerful mind-inducing effects.

There’s a lot of hype about galantamine, so I want to cover the basics about how it works on the brain, the studies that have proven its effectiveness, and my personal recommendations for experimentation with this safe and natural supplement. I also want to be brutally honest about some of the mild psychological and physical side effects as well. The Dagda Description[edit] Despite his great power and prestige, the Dagda is sometimes depicted as oafish and crude, even comical, wearing a short, rough tunic that barely covers his rump, dragging his great penis on the ground.[1] Such features are thought to be the additions of Christian redactors for comedic purposes. Tellingly, the Middle Irish language Coir Anmann (The Fitness of Names) paints a less clownish picture: "He was a beautiful god of the heathens, for the Tuatha Dé Danann worshipped him: for he was an earth-god to them because of the greatness of his (magical) power."[2]
