Herman Hesse was a German writer and painter during the rise of Nazi Germany. From the end of the 1930s, German journals stopped publishing Hesse's work, and his work was eventually banned by the Nazis. He lived in one of the most hateful political environments of the 20th Century and here's what he had to say about hate:
"If you hate a person you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What is not part of ourselves does not bother us."
Interested in more from Herman Hesse? Check out Siddharthta (1922), Steppenwolf (1927), or The Glass Bead Game (1943). The last of these one the Nobel Prize.

Science of Baseball: Fastball Reaction Time
Science of Baseball: Fastball Reaction Time
I thought some of the baseball players might find this interesting:
Fastball Reaction Time imitates a 90-mph fastball thrown by a major league pitcher. While this exhibit doesn't test if you could actually hit a fastball, it does test whether you could react in time to hit one. When you see the "swing batter" screen, a signal in your eye sends a message to a part of your brain that controls your muscles. Your brain must then send a signal to your muscles, telling them to click. Although it takes some time for the signal to travel along each nerve, the major delay in your reaction time occurs at the junction points in between the different nerves involved, and between the nerves and the muscles in your fingers.

Just an example of what photoshopping a picture can do. I've seen even better examples, but this one is pretty good. And, no, the yearbook staff won't edit all your photos to slim you down or fatten you up in the right places!
