About "Scientific Temperament & compulsions" topic:
The scientific investigations, though generally fair, are hampered in interpretations due to demands from policy makers to suit specific purpose. The "so called sponsored research" could be one culprit supporting this aspect.

Recently I was informed about two notes about the climate change issue. One note originated from Dr. William Grey, Prof. Emeritus, Colorado University, USA and the other by Dr. Roy Spenser, EOS, University of Alabama, USA. These notes are very interesting studies. While Prof. Grey points out that the global warming trends as elucidated in IPCC reports are all based on data sets which are dominated largely by observations over urban regions in northern hemisphere, the large warming signal obviously can not be attributed to CO 2 warming alone. If this fact be considered as a biasing term in the analysis, it would mean that the residual warming (which may be smaller in magnitude) can not be ...

50 Things to do Before you Die Photo by Anne Froelisch 1. Set foot on each of the seven continents. Antarctica might seem like a tough one, but here’s how . Once you’ve reached all seven you can truly call yourself a world traveler. 2. Cross a country on a bicycle. A bicycle tour takes some planning , but it beats being separated from a country though a passenger-side window. 3. Ride something bigger than a horse. Trekking through the jungle on the back of a two story tall elephant will surely be something you remember forever. 4. Live like a local for a month. The experience of visiting native peoples will give you way more insight into another way of life than two years hopping from one backpacker ghetto to the next. 5. Visit a “real” blues bar in Chicago . What better way to leave music’s commercialism behind and find the soul of the blues? 6. Learn another language. This is definitely a weighty and time-consuming proposition, but there are plenty of resources...

My salutes to Mr Narayana Murthy and Mr Mashelkar! Today in Economic Times the brain storming article having same heading made me really excited and highly hopeful towards future of application of researches in science and technology in commercial field.As in my whole career I felt that its lagging too much in our country (except southern parts of India).Whatever researches are going on in big government institutes remain in journals and proceedings of seminars.Very few come up in application.While crores of rupees are spent every year by many funding sectors viz; UGC,CSIR,DBT and many more. Today after reading views of Mr Narayan Murthy and Mr Mashelkar I felt really supportive from their side as I have requested in many seminars and meetings about this innovation. Mr Narayan Murthy: What we really require is science,technology and innovation policy.Innovation is mind to market,concept to commercialisation.In the rest of the world you see that is happening. Mr Mashelkar: Human...
