LIVE - Tuesday, January 23, 2007 at 11AM PST (2PM EST)
Guest: Lynne McTaggart, Author and Researcher (London)
The Intention Experiment is an ongoing experiment to determine the effects of focused group intention on scientifically quantifiable targets - animal, plant, and human. Lynne intends to show that thought is a thing and can have physical effects, and to show us myriad ways that all this information can be used.
This is sure to be a very interesting conversation.

British Teen Lands In Antigua After Record-Breaking 3,500-mile voyage
ST JOHN’S, Antigua, Jan. 3, 2007
What did you do at age 14? British teenager Mike Perham piloted a 28-foot sailboat alone from Gibraltar to Antigua, breaking the record for youngest to sail the Atlantic solo. (www.sailmike.com)
“If you can realize what it is like to be entirely alone out in the vast, very lonely Atlantic … I think it ranks with some of the extraordinary things that people have done.”

(AP) A British teen became the youngest person to sail solo across the Atlantic Ocean, completing a 3,500-mile voyage Wednesday when he reached the Caribbean island of Antigua.
Mike Perham, 14, waved his fist triumphantly to a small crowd of Antiguan officials and supporters as he docked his 28-foot sailboat outside St. John’s on the southeastern side of the island.
Perham, who was followed by his father during his journey, set sail Nov. 18 from Gibraltar and made brief stops for repairs in the Canary Islands and Cape Verde.
Perham, of Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, was seeking to break the record held by Sebastian Clover, also of Britain, who was 15 when he sailed solo from the Canary Islands to Antigua in 2003.
Perham had been expected to reach Antigua on Tuesday but a late problem with a sail delayed his arrival.

“Your shoes, clothes and car are already made automatically, but your house is built by hand and it doesn’t make sense.” That’s word from Dr. Behrokh Khoshnevis, whose team at USC is getting ready to debut a $1.5 million robot designed to build homes with zero help from puny humans. The bot should have its first test run in California this April, where it will build the shell of a two-story house in 24 hours. The operation is akin to a 3D inkjet printer, with the robot moving about in three dimensional space, spraying out the home layer by layer. Part of the simplicity of the process comes from the simplicity of the materials: nearly the whole house is built with concrete and gypsum, obviously leaving a bit of work for the decorators, but allowing for complicated shapes and cheap construction — about a fifth of current costs. A rival robotic house building being developed at Loughborough University takes a week to build a home, but will include fancier designs, including ducts for water, electrical and ventilation. Unfortunately, we’ll have to wait around 5 years for that model to hit the market, and by then we’ll all be having so much fun driving around in our flying cars we won’t even have time to bother with these “home” things.
