The Grand Illusion on Gas Prices
2008-06-06 22:39:00 Ok… So the author of this piece uses a little rhetoric to make his point. Our only issue of disagreement is that we believe there’s also a Peak Oil problem. In other words, the Federal Reserve Note “dollar” is dropping rapidly — true enough. But Boone Pickens is correct — supply is a ...SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "The Grand Illusion on Gas Prices", url: "http://www.ernharth.com/vi/200-8/06/06/the-grand-illusion-on-g-as-prices/" });

John McCain, Change, and the Barack Obama Illusion
2008-06-03 20:59:00 METAMORPHOSIS Any good Trekkie automatically associates the word Metamorphosis with the Trek Classic episode featuring Zefram Cochrane. Without giving you a detailed history of space flight, warp drive, first contact with the Vulcans thereby proving that Star Trek is salient to all aspects of life, simply – nah, nothing’s simple with Zefram Cochrane. Metamorphosis features a really bitchy Federation diplomat who was dying; the ship wrecked Cochrane, an interesting creature in love with Cochrane, and the wit and wisdom of James T. Kirk. Long story short, the alien merged with the dying Federation bitchy type. They were able to ...

Why is control an illusion?
2008-05-23 09:13:00 Whether or not you realize or accept it, you exert no control over what is happening outside yourself. You have free will and exert control when it comes to your thoughts and feelings, but you don't control anything else. You are only responsible for you.Now, if you gaze into a kaleidoscope, you glimpse interacting shapes and colors. This serves as a fabulous analogy. Every moment, every human being is contributing to changing shapes and slants inside this kaleidoscope. Life moves through us and with us. Imagine your life as a series of experiences. You add pieces to your own section of the huge kaleidoscope. It includes sections contributed by every other creature and living thing. How could you control all those colors, feelings and experiences? You don't. The assumption you can is the illusion you create out of a desire to control what you can't.You are the only person who can discern and change your behaviour.&n...

Your own CSS parallax illusion 3d image
2008-05-19 20:43:00 A couple of days ago I placed an article about a parallax illusion with CSS: The Horse in Motion. Today I'll show you how I created such an image so you can do it yourself. In this example, I'm going to use Photoshop for the actual image and Illustrator for the 3D effect. I wanted to try something else instead of the "frame by frame" (Like the Horse in Motion). Be creative! The final example (demo of the effect) looks pretty amazing and maybe even better than my previous one. Read more...

A parallax illusion with CSS: The Horse in Motion
2008-05-17 12:28:00 Time for some fun with CSS and optical illusions. For those people that are feed subscribers for a while, will know that I really love optical illusions. I already wrote several articles with optical illusions (15 cool word illusions, Illusion of a 3D dragon and more), and now it's time to create one myself with the help of CSS. One of the optical illusion video's that I saw a while ago, was the example of the book called Magic Moving Images. The video clearly explains how this optical illusion works and I really liked it. I wanted to recreate the effect of the illusion with the help of parallax and CSS. Chris Coyier wrote an article about Starry Night: Incredible 3D Background Effect with Parallax. This was the foundation of the effect of an optical illusion. Check out the demo page with can be created by combining those two awesome techniques. Read more...

The illusion that is Barack Obama
2008-05-05 05:02:00 This is an excellent article that greatly elucidates on the myth that is Barack Hussein Obama. Reprinted here for your convenience. Full article original located here: (http://www.theaustralian.news.-com.au/story/0,25197,23643866-5-013948,00.html). ===============================-======= The illusion that is Barack Obama . . Fred Siegel | May 05, 2008 . POLITICAL campaigning necessarily produces a wide gap between words and deeds. This is the price of bringing together a broad coalition with disparate interests. All effective politicians are at times authentically insincere or sincerely inauthentic. Exaggeration, embellishment, overstatement, doubletalk, deception and lies presented as metaphorical truths are the order of the day. . So, of course, Barack Obama is no different. He exaggerates the credit he deserves for a limited piece of ethics-reform legislation. He embellishes when he presents himself as having had a consistent record on the Iraq war when in fact he?s done a fair...

Impressive Ads Using Illusion Effects.
2008-04-29 20:10:00 Impressive Ads Using Illusion Effects.So what do you think was going on in the minds of the ad creators when they came up with these ads? These are some of the most interesting ads we did come across where illusions are used beautifully to promote products. One thing for sure, we don't come across these types of ads very often which again very much fulfills the basic concept what the ad makers want. Leaving a long lasting impression on the public. Of these ads except for the 'British Airways' ad & Digital Channel, no details are available as of now; who the creators are, about the company & the concept. If you got any hint, then do drop in a line.

Floating Ball Illusion
2008-04-23 13:40:00 There is a simple trick about this optical illusion, but first take a look these two images below and see what they look like to you. Do those balls appear to be on the ground on the first and up on the second image? They sure do if you orientate by the shadow below the balls. We can't mistrust the shadow, or can we? Yes we can. Now look at the shadow position on the first and the second image and you'll see that balls stand on exactly the same place they did on the first image, but the shadow is moved. isn't it?

U.S. Democracy, Elections: An Illusion?
2008-04-20 01:00:00 The following is a cross post from my friend, Sean Madden's iNoodle.com, with this caveat: Although I agree with Sean's introductory assessment of our illusionistic "Democratic" elections, I am not convinced that Barack Obama is a willful participant in the Establishment's fascist charade. Perhaps, to maintain my own sanity, I need to hold out hope that his candidacy is about changing the very things Mr. Engdahl illuminates. That is why I am supporting Barack Obama for President. There are many indications -- subtle, but there nonetheless -- that Obama is not part of the incestuous behind-the-scenes Washington power elite, although he will most assuredly be wooed by the powers-that-be in an attempt to control him. I'm betting he will not take the bait. I'm interested in what others think and am sending an email to Mr. Engdahl for his thoughts on Obama. I'll let you know his response. First, Sean's introduction:Political Incest and Psychological WarfareIntroduction by Se...
Parallel Line Illusion
2008-04-19 08:57:00 There are two principals at work in this optical illusion. One is that our mind tends to convert angles to right angles. In the process of doing that, the red lines become slightly bent.The second is that, the black lines give the illusion of looking down a tunnel. We assume that tunnel is round. Since this ?tunnel? looks round, the red lines appear to be rounded, also.Finally, you may notice that the background seems to shimmer and shake. This is normal given the strong contrast in the background fan.
Is Conscious Choice an Illusion?
2008-04-17 05:57:00 How much of the decision making process do we actually have a say in? That?s the question being raised thanks to new research coming out of the Max Planck Institute. Using brain scanners, researchers were able to predict people?s decisions seven seconds before the test subjects were even aware of making them. The decision is not necessarily one that involves a lot of mental preparation ? whether to hit a button with your left or right hand ? so whether this study is representative of our own self-direction is up for debate. Nevertheless, questions are naturally going to be raised over whether we have free will at all, or whether conscious choice is just an illusion. "Your decisions are strongly prepared by brain activity. By the time consciousness kicks in, most of the work has already been done," said study co-author John-Dylan Haynes, a Max Planck Institute neuroscientist. The research focused on revising a classic experiment pioneered by the late Benjamin Libet, which showed th...
