Re:[tips] Conspiracy theorists
On 12 March2013 Chris Green listed several conspiracy cannots, including thefollowing: Aminority man cannot have been elected president by amajority of American voters, therefore... Here'sanother conspiracy theory, this time from the field of science. According tothe PBS website accompanying the documentary Einstein's Wifebroadcast in 2003, in regard to Einstein's three celebrated 1905 papers: Eventoday, with the aid of super-computers, it is hard to imagine thatany scientist could produce so much significant work, on such widelyvaried topics, within a single year. Yet Einstein did it withoutcomputers, while he was working full time. Or did he? The answer,according to Einstein's Wife, is no, he did not work alone on the1905 papers, his Serbian first wife Mileva Marić was actually co-author.Moreover, according to the British sociologist Hilary Rose, Einstein has to beheld culpable for withholding recognition of Mileva's contribution to the[1905] achievement (Love, Power andKnowledge: Towards a Feminist Transformation of the Sciences (1905, p.143); reprinted in Women, Science, andTechnology: A Reader in Feminist Science Studies (2001, p. 56) But the conspiracy goes wider than that,according to the much-cited Swiss linguist Senta Troemel-Ploetz: If itwere not for the cultural imperialism of the US academic establishment, itmight be known in Princeton what is known in Novi Sad [the Marić familyhome town]: Einstein-Marić was the scientific collaborator of her husband(Mileva Einstein-Marić: The Woman Who Did Einstein's Mathematics, Women's Studies International Forum,vol. 1, no. 5, pp. 415-432, 1990). The claim,if not the conspiracy angle, has been recycled in several books over recentyears by authors with respectable academic credentials, though the numerousfactual errors promulgated in their writings have to be seen to be believed (or,rather, disbelieved!). If I mayblow my own trumpet here, Sage Open has just published my detailed rebuttal ofHilary Rose's claims that covers the main contentions purporting to demonstratethat Mileva Marić contributed to Einstein's 1905 papers: http://sgo.sagepub.com/content/3/1/2158244013478014.full.pdf+html P.S.

[tips] Inattention blindness, gorillas, and knives
We recently discussed the finding that radiologists are unlikely to spot gorillas in their x-rays readings. I made the point that this is what we want from our radiologists, because if they ignored gorillas, they might be more likely to detect cancer in the X-rays. I called the proposed phenomenon attention eagle-eye, which coining should really be attention eagle-eyedness to make it comparable to inattention bliindness (but clumsy). http://www.mail-archive.com/tips%40fsulist.frostburg.edu/msg09600.html Anyway, I see this issue now coming up with the firestorm over the USA's Transport Security Administration to allow small knives on planes. One argument to justify this is that such searching distracts them from their critical task in identifying really dangerous stuff. (I thought I heard this argument being advanced by the TSA, at least in radio news, but all I can come up with is arguments relating to efficiency and expense, e.g. http://snipurl.com/26lj6eg ). But it may be that screeners freed from the need to look for penknives will be better able to detect what really counts. Shouldn't we have some data on this? Stephen Stephen L.

Re: [tips] Hey, We Got A Pope! Really?
Psychology of transportation or trave could be an interesting course to develop!

OMG! A Pope that TAUGHT PSYCHOLOGY! See, I run rings around you logically! |He was ordained to the priesthood on 13 December 1969, by |Archbishop Ramón José Castellano. He attended the Philosophical |and Theological Faculty of San Miguel, a seminary in San Miguel. |Bergoglio attained the position of novice master there and became |professor of theology. A PROFESSOR! WOW! Well, maybe you are right and this has nothing to do with teaching. But just in case I miss the point: A new Minister of Transport was announced in Cape Town today . not Zulu- but Xhosa-speaking (do not forget the clicking sound). She is doing a good job with promoting traditional medicine and she looks, well . African. Very humble as well. Btw, she's from Ngqamakhwe in the Eastern Cape, which I also prefer to Boston. Hmm, has she taught a Psychology of Transportation course? ;-) Okay, okay it must be my blood sugar ? Eat a Snickers(tm) bar. You're not yourself when you're hungry. ;-) NOTE: Do Canadians get this TV commercial up in the Great White North? Regards from this side of the ocean. Yeah, the same to you. -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu Mike Palij m...@nyu.edu 2013/03/13 08:29 PM On Wed, 13 Mar 2013 11:17:21 -0700, John Kulig wrote: Mike et al I'm laying my bet on O'Mally from Boston ... not an Italian but he is perceived as doing good job with scandals AND he really looks the part (the beard and all) ... As much as it pains me to say something nice about Boston, O'Malley is my choice, primarily because of his humbleness and apparent good sense.
