 The Mad Scientist's Office. #212 Wednesday April 5, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:06:20

Once a year, around my birthday, I take a look around my office and try to re-evaluate and weed through the junk...the good, the bad and the ugly.

 School Projects, is this homework for Kids or Parents? #211 Tuesday April 4, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:08:29

Dioramas, triboards and enormously involved school projects, most kids can't do them without help. Eventually, even with the help of a parent kids get bored and check out. For parents it's a tremendous amount of work just trying to keep the kids on task so the project gets completed. The real challenge is to have fun with it too!

 Duke University Men's Lacrosse Team Accused of Gang Raping a Young Woman. #210 Thursday March 30, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:09:51

It's shocking but not really surprising. The behavior started long ago in our youth programs. We single out superstars, continually treat them as if they are "Special" and eventually they feel so empowered that they think they are above the law. The fact is that rape is a crime!

 Missing the Mark on Youth Sports! #209 Wednesday March 29, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:11:18

From Little League all the way through High School we are sending a terrible message to our children. The dog eat dog mentality of youth sports is not fostering healthy minds or bodies. Perhaps it's time to rein in our school coaches, administrators and the mainly publicly funded programs that hurt our kids.

 Finally An Immigration Bill. #208 Tuesday March 28, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:05:55

The bickering continues, but on the surface the compromise on an immigration bill shows some real promise!

 The Illegal Invasion of Iraq was a crime and Bush is the criminal! #207 Monday March 27, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:11:57

Producing fake evidence to provoke an attack on a foreign country or planning to assassinate a head of state to overthrow his government is sleazy and criminal. What kind of man asks the favor of a foreign government to be an accomplice in such criminal behavior? What message are the United States and Great Britain sending to the world?

 Slicing our lives into Nanoseconds #206 Tuesday March 21, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:06:51

Time is a funny thing. You never have enough of it or it drags along. Lately, life is passing at unprecedented speed. It's no wonder people are stressed out.

 Welcome Spring! #205 Monday March 20, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:16:46

Today is the Vernal Equinox. The beginning point in the year when the day and night are equal. Many interesting rituals revolve around the celebration of this annual event of birth and renewal.

 St. Patrick's Day! #204 Tuesday March 17, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:21:23

Who was St. Patrick? Why shamrocks? What's with Leprechauns, green beer and the parade? Here are some fun facts and legend surrounding the most widely celebrated religious holiday by non-catholics and catholics alike.

 Beware of the Ides of March! #203 Tuesday March 15, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:04:40

Ever wondered what they heck the Ides of March was all about? Well, here's a little background that explains the story behind the infamous line in the William Shakespeare play Julius Caesar. File it under "Jeopardy trivia" for future reference.

 GPS is tracking more than you think! #202 Tuesday March 14, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:16:31

GPS has graduated from military use to tracking pets, and now people. Locally many towns have installed GPS systems to track their employees. The FCC mandated that by 2005 all cell phones must be fitted with GPS. What price are you willing to pay for security? Is the Fed manipulating us with F-E-A-R?

 Welcome to Our New Website! #201 Monday March 13, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:04:06

Pegasus has done an amazing job transforming this site into a very cool searchable, more interactive space for us to meet and share ideas. Stay tuned for stage 2. In the meantime, Thank You all for joining us thus far on this amazing journey of possibility!

 Write a New Program, Free of Dis-Ease. #200 Friday March 10, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:12:50

I was thinking about disease. In general, what is Dis-Ease? How have the old bastions of perceived authority affected our lives? Who is running the machine? Is the perceived authority of the machine causing the disease? Perhaps it's time for a new operating system. We have an infinite number of program choices, and our choices will affect our future and the future of our children. How exactly a new world paradigm, free of disease is to be birthed, depends on women.

 South Dakota Bans Abortion, Part 3 #199 Thursday March 9, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:16:12

This, in my opinion, is religious fanaticism plain and simple. Abortion is a terrible heart wrenching decision, and a completely personal choice. Around the world women are subject to violations of the masculine principle on a regular basis. There are millions of cases each year where women become pregnant without so choosing. This is about a woman's right to self determination. Violence against women, rape and abortion are all integrally related.

 South Dakota Bans Abortion, Part 2 #198 Wednesday March 8, 2006 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:14:13

This is an assault against women and women's rights. It has been reported that over 300,000 woman have reported being raped last year. Only 39 percent of rapes and sexual assault are reported. Over 32,000 pregnancies result from rape every year, and that's only the ones that are reported. More than half of all rapes occur before the age of 18. In 2004 the CDC reported that 734,965 women were treated and released for acts of violence against women.
