RIDGEFIELD PARK, NJ, November 18, 2012 (Press-News.org) The WISE Education Summit in Doha, Qatar was basically about providing education to the poor of the world. The road is long and hard but a very good start was achieved at the summit. The summit was a smashing success. It will ensure greater sharing and cooperation across countries. It will enhance educational research. It will expand education to the poor of the world. It will help improve lives, reduce hunger and poverty in large sections of the world.
Under HH Sheikha Moza's leadership the Qatar Foundation is not only providing huge funding to innovative education organizations around the world they are also helping organize funding from other sources. They are bringing together the education and science leaders from all over. They are advancing the funding and management of education for the poor of the world. There is a need to open QF branches all over the world.
However all the help that is being provided is in the area of mind education. Not only is brain education being mostly ignored, children are even being brain miseducated; by providing unhealthy upbringing that makes the child over-confident or under confident and in many cases even confused.
There is now talk of emotional intelligence education which is brain education; but brain education is taught; in some institutions but in the traditional mind education way. The brain and mind are two separate entities and so teaching the brain by way of teaching the mind has not worked. Not surprisingly successful emotional intelligence education has remained a frustratingly elusive goal.
The mind works in words and the brain works in electro-chemical reactions. So teaching emotional intelligence in words does not work. All we do is teach, preach, coax, use carrots and sticks to ensure emotionally healthy behavior by teaching to a brain that is emotionally challenged. It is like telling brass to be gold. You cannot say to someone to be truthful and honest while his brain continues to generate selfishness powered by electrochemical reactions. Making a physically and emotionally ignorant brain to stop generating the wrong emotions will never happen. How can we get a nitrogen producing machine to produce oxygen?
Fortunately emotional baggage can be removed from the brain. The brain can be made emotionally super healthy. We already have therapies that make the subnormal brain into a normal brain. We can use the same therapies to cure those children who come to the classroom at an early stage with emotionally challenged brains.
Even amongst the so called normal brains a good chunk has some emotional baggage. We can use the same therapies to make the so called normal brains into super normal brains.
HH Sheikha Moza is using the immense wealth of the Kingdom of Qatar very wisely and generously but unfortunately only for the advancement of just the traditional mind education. There is an immense opportunity here to expand her interest into the much needed and currently neglected field of brain education.
We must ask ourselves will the current educational objectives of the Qatar Foundation help reduce crime, greed, corruption, abusiveness relationships. Will it bring down divorce, drug and alcohol addictions. Will it eliminate war and bring peace. Most important for Qatar; will it bring happiness. Yes indirectly with more educated people it will help but nothing will change fundamentally. Those who will benefit will still not be happy. More and more money/comfort will bring desire for more because of the way the emotional baggage generates all the above negative emotions. The issues of corruption, greed, addictions, unhappiness, abuse etc. will remain because we do not address the problem of emotional baggage in the brains of the vast majority of mankind.
All man made messes are caused by our emotionally challenged behavior and unless we introduce brain education that cleans up the brain of emotional baggage; our emotional illiteracy problems will continue to plague us.
The Qatar Foundation's bottom line is,' Unlocking the Human Potential'. Thank Heavens for the Qatar Foundation's successful efforts; which are producing great results for millions of poor children and even creating great expansions of knowledge in all kinds of fields for rich and poor. But,' Unlocking the Human Potential' is just half of the human potential. It is virtually education for only half the brain. The other half of the bottom line that is missing is, 'Purifying the Human Potential'. It is like unlocking a box of iron when we need gold.
Fortunately we can reeducated an emotionally challenged brain; we can teach emotional intelligence but not by way of the mind. It is well established that by old age we humans become wise. What happens is that the brain's emotional baggage is exposed to the reality of life and the emotional baggage gets ground out very slowly over many years. As the emotional baggage in the brain gets less and less the person progresses towards wisdom. All we are saying is why wait for life experiences over many years to remove the emotional baggage. We can remove the emotional baggage through brain therapy over months or even years while the person is still a young student. We can even have emotional baggage removal seminars for all ages. We can also have programs for parents to create emotional baggage free brains in their children.
We have already worked out the nuts and bolts of emotional-intelligence/brain education. We need the partnership of the Qatar Foundation. We are hoping that HH Shekha Moza will consider Emotional Intelligence Education as the next WISE Education Summit's main theme. We can help lay out the whole agenda. We have the road map to make the world emotionally super healthy.
We feel HH Sheikha Moza's contributions to education cannot be defined in words. We would like to propose that HH Sheikha Moza be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her helping expand education in quality and in kind.

Technology only a tool in search for solutions to poverty
2012-11-17
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Technology can serve as a tool to bridge the digital divide, but it is unlikely to be a complete solution in helping people find jobs and escape poverty, according to a Penn State researcher.
"People really want to believe that the latest technology will help us do all these great things and liberate us," said Michelle Rodino-Colocino, assistant professor of communications and women's studies. "But it's also a way of putting off the big problems and saying, 'let's not touch these big problems because Internet access will turn it all around for ...

What's behind the success of the soccer 'Knuckleball'
2012-11-17
What makes soccer star Christiano Ronaldo's "knuckleball" shot so unpredictable and difficult to stop? At the American Physical Society's (APS) Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD) meeting, November 18 – 20, 2012, in San Diego, Calif., a team of researchers investigating this phenomenon will reveal their findings.
A "knuckleball" in soccer refers to a ball kicked at very low spin, which results in a zigzag trajectory. Along its straight path, the ball deviates laterally by roughly the diameter of a ball (0.2 m). The deviation direction appears to be unpredictable, which is ...
Probing the mystery of the Venus fly trap's botanical bite
2012-11-17
Plants lack muscles, yet in only a tenth of a second, the meat-eating Venus fly trap hydrodynamically snaps its leaves shut to trap an insect meal. This astonishingly rapid display of botanical movement has long fascinated biologists. Commercially, understanding the mechanism of the Venus fly trap's leaf snapping may one day help improve products such as release-on-command coatings and adhesives, electronic circuits, optical lenses, and drug delivery.

Antenna-on-a-chip rips the light fantastic
2012-11-17
HOUSTON – (Nov. 16, 2012) – A device that looks like a tiny washboard may clean the clocks of current commercial products used to manipulate infrared light.
New research by the Rice University lab of Qianfan Xu has produced a micron-scale spatial light modulator (SLM) like those used in sensing and imaging devices, but with the potential to run orders of magnitude faster. Unlike other devices in two-dimensional semiconducting chips, the Rice chips work in three-dimensional "free space."
Xu and his Rice colleagues detailed their antenna-on-a-chip for light modulation ...
