https://wintermutedsun.wordpress.com/2013/02/18/331
Don't wait for the storms to pass, but go out and dance in the rain! February 18, 2013. Autostereograms aka MAGIC EYE Pictures. So, there was nothing for it except to do all my homework. When it was all done, all I had left to do was to stand peering out the glass doors. I would play games with my vision, transferring my focus from the hexagonal wire in the safety glass to the farmers’ fields way beyond sometimes slowly, sometimes as quickly as possible. Why was this happening? Or the old Victorian stere...

Don't wait for the storms to pass, but go out and dance in the rain! April 22, 2013. Why Do Dogs Sniffand Humans Don’t? Beyond the Socially Inappropriate. Gina’s earlier post on olfaction intrigued me. Then my youngest read to me, The Dog Beneath the Skin , an essay by Oliver Sacks. Combining these two with an interest in change-blindness and in stereopsis for our visual sense, made me wonder, Do humans have change-blindness for other senses? And Do we have other stereo senses? Ahhthe joys of Spring!

The Things Seen, Heard, and Felt. My life through the lense of a camera and why it's so facinating. January 31, 2013. Roses are red, violets are blue. But why? What makes the eye see the colors it does and how? First we must understand the basic structure of the human eye. How does that work, one might ask? As mentioned before light passes through the cornea and the lens focuses the light onto the back of our eye. When the light hits the back of our eye the retina, covered in rods and cones, converts...

https://kaschant.wordpress.com/2013/04/19/stroke-and-aphasia
April 19, 2013. Here are some examples of each:. While some people can recover from these damages of a stroke, some do not fare as well as others. There are many factors that determine the amount of damage a stroke leaves behind on the brain. Who doesn’t like working with a cute puppy? Not that I wish a stroke upon anyone, but me having another stroke patient is inevitable and I look forward to be able to relate their type of aphasia to the area of their brain that is having the stroke. What are we reall...

Attention, ADHD and My Children →. February 18, 2013. I decided to conduct my own experiment and test Kanizsa triangle and square on my children. I have four children, whose ages range from five years to seven months old. In my experiment I am trying to determine if it is possible to detect the shape just because of previous knowledge of shapes or does age also play a factor. Goldstein, Bruce E. 2010.

A fine WordPress.com site. I blame Jack Frost! I hear those sleigh bells ringing. Taken in early fall, I can not wait for winter! Apparently some Grinches out there do not share the same love of the winter as I do. While the faint hope of snow and below freezing temperatures keep me going, to others this could be a rather depressing season, some could even say they get sad. Frosty the snowman was jolly happy soul. I’m Dreaming of a white Christmas. But what really causes SAD? There could be a few factors...
