I completed trig this semester. I discovered I have a learning disability I did not know I had until we studied the unit circle. Apparently, I cannot find some lines inside of the unit circle. I was trying to hard to memorize the radians and corresponding angles, but I just could not and I could not...

Does anyone have any experience with the Son-Light Program for Autism? I saw an ad in the local online classified posted by a parent of an autistic child looking for volunteers to help her with this program for her son. My personal experience is someone did this for me one time by accident. It did c...

Thanks Pakled. Red light in the doppler affect moves away, blue light means coming toward you. Since I posted this thought (I know it is a little out-of-the-box, sorry about that) I have been layering together the way in which an atom works. It seems like each discipline of science that examines the...

Wow, Starr. That is EXACTLY my same thought about two of the non-student bullies. Exactly. I stay out of their respective areas as much as possible. They find me. They find me, attempt to damage me, and then pretend like they are my best friends. They are not honest. Often I have thought the exact s...

You are a lovely person, Alba, and I appreciate you reposting. I have this thought that if people look up to narcissists, then it is a personal choice that each person makes to do so. Perhaps this is one reason I am being mobbed because I do not look up to narcissists. I am asperger. I have the abil...

Thank you for your replies. I do keep a journal with the more severe attacks. I document them as much as possible. I have this continuing thought that at some point I will be attacked physically. I try to stay out of situations and places where this is likely to occur. If I survive such an attack, I...

First, Donkey Buster, if you want to be a Zen Priest, BE a Zen Priest. I do not know very much about zen. My impression of it is there is a lot of meditation involved combined with a lot of deeper thought. I can see how that would be attractive to an aspie. We have the ability for deeper thought as ...

When I first was diagnosed with autism, I was relieved that I finally understood why I was different and more importantly, that there were other people like me. It was a relief in that sense, but it was also very shocking to have confirmation of just how different I really am. Before the diagnosis I...

Today I am feeling a little vulnerable. It is my late husband’s birthday and I miss him. He crossed over about 7 years ago. Perhaps because of this I am feeling a little disoriented. He anchored me. Today I have no anchor, so I am trying to find my own. I have discovered so much about myself lately....

Thank you Ambivalence for posting a reply in my thread. Here is my thought: Only two electrons to each orbital. Each electron spins in an opposite direction. Electrons carry electrical current. The electrical current spinning in opposite directions creates a magnetic field. The stronger the magnetic...

A couple of weeks ago in chemistry lab, we experimented with atomic spectra. The observations I recorded in my lab book were distinctively different and I tried my best to draw and color accurate representations. The Neon emission spectra consisted of light with strong reds, oranges, and yellows. Th...

I researched further and found a really great article about theanine and caffeine in green tea. Apparently, theanine counteracts the affects of caffeine in green tea. It was interesting to note that theanine alone can be used to induce calmness AND it can be used as a stimulant depending upon the do...

I drink green tea every day. I had to make myself learn to drink it. I had some concern about the caffeine, but my understanding is the caffeine contains all of the things that make it so healthy. Here is a link to a governmental study in mice that support green tea as a dietary suppliment for menta...

Thanks Orwell. I will check it out. I thought about transferring to Berkely, so it will be interesting to view the presentations. I have been learning with the MIT courses between school breaks. Thanks again.

Wow, Ntstanch, your thought and my thought are so much alike it is kind of scary. I think you might be a little more advanced in your classes than I am in my classes. Anyway. I no longer believe the universe is going to collapse back in on itself. I know that is physics heresy, especially when you a...
