Talk With Ghosts EVP Explained
Electronic voice phenomena (EVP) are anomalous voices of unknown origin, heard or recorded through the use of radios, tape recorders or other electronic audio devices. The voices are often claimed to have a paranormal origin and have been attributed to communications from ghosts or spirits or sometimes aliens. EVP proponents speculate that some electronic devices may be able to pick up ghostly communications that are often inaudible to the human ear.Skeptics say there are prosaic explanations for the phenomenon rather than communication from ghosts, spirits or other paranormal sources.
According to its proponents, the basic assumption behind EVP is the belief that spirits or other entities may find it easier to create noise that is inaudible to the human ear (which can nevertheless be picked up by recording devices) than to move solid physical objects, speak through mediums, or use other means of communication.
Critics say EVPs are likely created by interference from nearby items that emit noise on low-level frequencies, such as CB radios or through cross modulation. Additionally, critics say some of the "voices" people believe have been caught on tape are likely fueled by human nature's propensity to try to make sense out of random patterns — in this case, noise

Global Warming Caused by Flat Screen TV's
In the Independent, Ben Russell warns that these new televisions could increase emissions by 700,000 tons a year by 2010. This is not because the new sets actually emit CO2 gas, it's because they use so much more power, and producing all that electricity is what increases CO2 emissions.

Space Elevator
Kelly Young writes in New Scientist that space elevators could be a cheap way to get cargo and possibly people into space one day. This could be especially important if we establish colonies on the Moon or even Mars.

The Origin OF Christmas
Christmas has its origins in several pagan holidays. The Roman celebration known as Saturnalia included the making and giving of small presents (saturnalia et sigillaricia). This holiday was observed over a series of days beginning on December 17 (the birthday of Saturn), and ending on December 25 (the birthday of Sol Invictus (the "unconquered sun"). The combined festivals resulted in an extended winter holiday season. Business was postponed and even slaves feasted. There was drinking, gambling and singing, and nudity was relatively common. It was the "best of days," according to the poet Catullus.
During the time in which Christianity was spreading throughout the Roman Empire, another similar religion known as Mithraism was also gaining widespread acceptance. The followers of Mithraism worshipped Mithras, a god of Persian origin, who was identified with Sol Invictus. The followers of Mithraism, consequently, adopted the birthday of Sol Invictus as the birthday of Mithras. In 274 AD, due to the popularity of Mithraism, Emperor Aurelian designated December 25 as the festival of Sol Invictus.
