The social experiment my friends forced me to do!
February 6, 2007
So here it is, a new blog for the bloggosphere (thanks Samuel L. Jackson!). So I guess I should thank my so-called friends for making me get off my lazy ass and do this. Unfortunately I can’t say why I’m doing this otherwise the whole point is moot. So thanks Tim and thanks Sarah! I guess if you want to find out what this is all about, you’ll have to keep checking back. This blog is designed to last for a year and I’m interested to find out where this is all going to end up. Perhaps the turd bucket of the bloggosphered internet. Man, bloggoshpere is fun to type.
But yeah, if you want to find out what this is all about, email me or leave me a message so I can not tell you what this is all about. But you can find more aboutTim! Through his webcomic! Go to http://refried.timtekindustries.com/
Yep. I guess I should talk a little about me, just so you can get to know me you mysterious reader you. I’m a 24 year old male, living in Perth, Western Australia. Just graduated from Murdoch University with a degree in Science, majoring in Games Technology (yes there is a Games Technology major, and no it isn’t just playing video games). Ceremony in March! Really can’t wait for that. Something about finally finishing 18(? 12 + 2 + 4 = 18 phew!) years of being in the education system that makes it all the more satisfying.
I guess getting a degree in games technology, i’m hoping that you can guess that I enjoy playing video games. I can’t say that I’m good at any one genre of game, but I’d say I’d be best at driving games, and possibly guitar hero 1 and 2 (in my group of friends anyway). I’m mainly a PC gamer but i recently bought the Wii which I’m very much enjoying.
Anyways I tire of this. More updates later? Perhaps! Time will tell.
Bitchin’!
Algebraic!
Boooooooooooooop
Two new studies show why some people are more attractive for members of the opposite sex than others.
The University of Florida, Florida State University found that physically attractive people almost instantly attract the attention of the interlocutor, sobesednitsy with them, literally, it is difficult to make eye. This conclusion was reached by a series of psychological experiments, which were determined by the people who believe in sending the first seconds after the acquaintance. Here, a curious feature: single, unmarried experimental preferred to look at the guys, beauty opposite sex, and family, people most often by representatives of their sex.
The authors believe that this feature developed a behavior as a result of the evolution: a man trying to find a decent pair to acquire offspring. If this is resolved, he wondered potential rivals. Detailed information about this magazine will be published Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
In turn, a joint study of the Rockefeller University, Rockefeller University and Duke University, Duke University in North Carolina revealed that women are perceived differently by men smell. During experiments studied the perception of women one of the ingredients of male pheromone-androstenona smell, which is contained in urine or sweat.
The results were startling: women are part of this repugnant odor, and the other part is very attractive, resembling the smell of vanilla, and the third group have not felt any smell. The authors argue that the reason is that the differences in the receptor responsible for the olfactory system, from different people are different.
It has long been proven that mammals (including human) odor is one way of attracting the attention of representatives of the opposite sex. A detailed article about the journal Nature will publish.
