M-Theory

The most advanced version of the cosmic string theory. M-theory exists in eleven-dimentional hyperspace, where two-branes and five-branes can exist. There are five ways in which M-Theory can be reduced down to ten dimensions, thereby giving us the five known superstring theories, which are now revealed to be the same theory.

The full equations governing M-theory are totally unknown.

Soymilk

A creamy delicious and healthy alternative to cow’s milk made from soybeans; it contains no antibiotics, hormones, cholesterol, gluten, casein; it’s not linked to cancer and diabetes (like cow’s milk is). Contains powerful antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals such as A, B12, Folate, C, and E, potassium, iron, zinc, calcium, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids.

Using soybeans to make milk has many ecological advantages. Less land is needed to grow soybeans then is needed for raise cows to produce milk. And because the soybean plant is a legume it replenishes the nitrogen content of the soil.

Tina loves drinking soymilk.

Raven

The name given to large black birds, who look similar to crows but are larger and more solitary. Corvus Corax. Often associated with healing, magic, successful hunting, death, and mischief. Considered to be messengers between the living and the other world. Honored by almost all human societies. Ravens are considered among the most intelligent of all birds; they can learn to imitate a variety of sounds, including the human voice. Ravens are scavengers and will eat just about anything that is dead; but they will also hunt for mice, lizards, small birds, snakes, insects, and berries.

They are mentioned in many mythologies, both in North America and in Europe. Among the Native Americans, Raven is a creator and trickster god. In Norse mythology, Odin’s two Ravens Thought and Memory are divine spies so to speak. They are mentioned in many poems and novels, perhaps the most famous is Edgar Allan Poe’s Nevermore.

Ravens are amazingly beautiful and graceful flyers, maneuvering effortlessly in the sky, whirling and twirling and gliding through the air, riding updrafts with ease.

"Though the birds have a wide variety of sounds and calls they may not be willing to divulge their secrets to us." Quote the raven? Aaarrck!
Nevermore!
