The best performance by a child in a science fiction film
http://www.helium.com/items/1358152-the-best-performance-by-...
A director's biggest fear is to have to shoot a scene starring a child or an animal. Both are almost equally difficult to cope with. Because a child is as unpredictable as an animal is. You cannot make a child perform its lines if it's not in a mood. The best you will get is crying. But there are some children that act even better than the best professional actors.

Why you should study to be an engineer?
http://www.helium.com/items/1240168
Before, every time I heard the word "engineer", the first thing that comes on my mind is someone who is knowledgeable in Mathematics. But now, I realized it was more than that for I am indeed an engineer. Engineering as defined in Wikipedia is the discipline and profession of applying technical and scientific knowledge and utilizing natural laws and physical resources in order to design and implement materials, structures, machines, devices, systems, and processes that safely realize a desired objective and meet specified criteria. It is a course most commonly acquired by men than by women. And it is considered as one of the oldest profession even during the times of early man on earth.

Crash Landing: Do Scientific Explanations Compete with Religious Explanations?
http://www.gene-callahan.org/blog/2008/06/do-scientific-expl...
The idea behind this supposed conflict is that "God" serves as a kind of default causal mechanism invoked to explain anything not yet understood scientifically. Thus, if current science has no explanation for the existence of living creatures, then that is seen -- superstitiously, according to one camp, or faithfully, according to the other -- as evidence that there is still "room" for God in our world view. And, if scientific advances should conquer that problem, then it is hoped or feared that the territory plausibly claimed by religion will be reduced by just the area now newly occupied by science.
