The World of Blind Mathematicians - http://www.ams.org/notices...

"He notes that most blind mathematicians are or were working in geometry. But why geometry, the most visual of all areas of mathematics? “It’s pure thinking,” Giroux replied. He explained that, for example, in analysis, one has to do calculations in which one keeps track line-by-line of what one is doing. This is difficult in Braille: To write, one must punch holes in the paper, and to read one must turn the paper over and touch the holes. Thus long strings of calculations are hard to keep track of ... By contrast, “in geometry, the information is very concentrated, it’s something you can keep in mind,” Giroux said. What he keeps in mind is rather mysterious" - mkz
"Sossinski points out that it is not so suprising that many blind mathematicians work in geometry. The spatial ability of a sighted person is based on the brain analyzing a two-dimensional image, projected onto the retina, of the three-dimensional world, while the spatial ability of a blind person is based on the brain analyzing information obtained through the senses of touch and... more... - mkz
"Some blind mathematicians actually read TEX source files directly; Giroux does so using a refreshable Braille touch-screen. He said it is more comfortable to have an audio recording of a paper, but before having a recording made, he wants to know whether the paper is really interesting to him. Reading TEX files provides quick and direct access to the documents. Of course, TEX files are... more... - mkz
"mathematics is in some ways more accessible for the blind than other professions. One reason is that mathematics requires less reading because mathematical writing is compact compared to other kinds of writing. “In mathematics,” Salinas noted, “you read a couple of pages and get a lot of food for thought.”" - mkz
"Bernard Morin is a mathematician, blind since childhood, former Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton University. Professor Morin was interested in the ways in which the Optiverse differs from his Morin eversion, but he could not understand the difference, because he could not see the computer-rendered Optiverse movie." - Uc boyutlu yaziciyla sekilleri cikartmislar,... more... - mkz

Iknci paragraph cok ilginc geldi..Giroux baba adam, cok degerli isleri var, cok da saygi goren birisi. Ote yandan, yaklasik 11 yil once iddia ettigi ama tam ispatini yazmamakta direttigi bir sonuc yuzunden huysuzlanan bir suru insan biliyorum. Bu sonuc belki su an itibariyle 200 civarinda makalede temel kabul. Sonuc hakkinda tek soyleyecegim hem cok dogal hem de cok sok edici olmasi. Ne... more... - Abid Balik

این گیاهان مینیاتوری هستند و خیلی زیاد رشد نمیکنند کلا. حتی اون بونسای های سن بالا رو هم که ببینی خیلی بزرگ نیستند. امام با توجه به قدمتشون، قیمتشون هم میره بالاتر. - Mahdi E

And further I say: Yes, sometimes we get on each other's nerves, and post things we don't like, or say something we didn't mean or maybe meant too much, and liked something or didn't like something and posted too many cat videos or not enough cat videos, or something something about that someone that one time in that place with that thing, you know? BUT NOW WE CAN SEARCH FOR DIFFERENT THINGS AND WE CAN ALL GET ALONG, YES? - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
Unicorns!! - Janet:#TeamMonique from FFHound!

that's funny just the day after Obama wins his second term in whitehouse. sounds like a socialist conspiracy to me!!!111 i don't know just sayin' - guve
@guve i think you are right. ff knowingly did not allow the popular forces of these country, the patriots to search. hence they (we) could not show the contradictions of the obamasocialists, because of that we lost the elections. i find this rather alarming - feraye

ff is trying to confuse and distract the naive patriots of ff to forget the current events and not question the terror that is happening currently, in the name of change. please let's not get caught up with pink horses carrying phallic symbols on their heads. - feraye

Shape-Shifting Lizard Skin Cream - Boing Boing
"Shapeshifting from lizard to human form is great for controlling Earth so you can mine gold to save your dying homeworld, but it’s not so great for your skin. When you’re juggling appointments and global depopulation deadlines, you don’t have time for an exhaustive skincare regime, especially after you’ve been up all night sodomising infants on a blood-soaked altar. That’s why there’s new Hypoallergenic Shapeshifting Lizard Skin Cream, for the hard-working reptilian overlord who wants to crush the human race AND look great. Revitalise dry cracked scales with the nutrifying formula, penetrating your watertight, abrasive epidermis with vitamin-enriched micro-molecules. Never again spend hours removing crusty nodules from your armoured eyelids or sandblasting your segmented underbelly. Instead, spend your life-cycle on the things that really matter to you: eating babies, manipulating financial markets and basking on rocks in the warm glow of Earth’s home star. Whichever form you’ve... more... - Son of Groucho from Bookmarklet
