A lot of this discussion was over my head and I found it boring, but I also was skeptical about some of the ideas, because they were so "out there." They talk about what is real, and what we see vs. what we remember, and I can understand that, but some of the other concepts were just too strange for me, like the atom discussion, and how nothing is solid, even though it appears solid. OK, that may be true, but in my experience, when you hit cement, it is pretty solid, and I'll stick with that experience. I want further proof of that, and further proof that we can go back in time and ahead in time. I think that is just too difficult to comprehend and to actually prove, and they can believe it if they want, but I'm skeptical. I think the most pressing questions about human existence were in the opening of the film, "Why am I here, and what purpose do I serve? What am I supposed to do?" These are hard questions, and some that a lot of people never find the answer to during their lives. I worry that many people's lives have no purpose, and when...
So why were they here? I don't want to feel that way about my life, and I think that is one of the most pressing questions facing any of us. I think that today, people don't really think so much about these things, and their lives are empty and unfulfilled because of it. They suddenly find out that the big car, the big house, and the designer clothing doesn't really mean anything, and that their lives are pretty much nothing. This film made me think about that, and so has this course. I don't want to be one of the scientists interviewed in this film, who have so many outlandish ideas that they seem to be from another universe, or thinking on another plane. However, they do have purpose and meaning to their lives, and their lives mean something, because they are exploring important concepts and using their minds on challenging problems. I want to be fulfilled in my life, and I don't want to end up thinking I haven't done anything important in my life, and I think that this film brought that home to me.

In this interpretation Heitler accepts the modified Copenahgenist observer created reality, but adds that the act of observation dissolves the barrier between observer and the observed. The observer is a necessary part of the whole. Once observed, the object is now an inseparable part of the observer (Bleuler). Arntz addresses this bridge between the observer, the observer, and reality by asking "why aren't we magicians?"; indeed, if we create
Tears of recognition that all of us are on a journey and none of us have arrived at a destination. it's not just me. it's all of us. Tears of relief to know that the path isn't supposed to be straight or easy or even. (Fonda 2005) By evoking the image of a collective of teary-eyed conference-goers, Fonda immediately establishes an emotional connection with the audience, and the effect is
Heart hospitals are foregoing the traditional systems with a model known as patient-focused care. In this model patients stay in one room throughout the entire procedure, rather than the traditional method of waiting for beds to open as they transfer from one unit to another. This one-room approach also works to reduce the time spent in the hospital. The Heart Hospital, which has 12 beds, usually sends patients home
