	Teaching Science
		When teaching science, it is important to remember that science did not arise out of a vacuum but has a history of its own.
		The history of science has been a rocky and often embarrassing saga; however, this is not the impression you will get using many modern textbooks as they content themselves with simply summarizing the theories that are currently most widely accepted.
		Given a few generations fed upon the touchy-feely math and science programs that a currently the rage in most educational circles, you can be sure future students will have no experience in their own education background from which they might develop a faith in the existence of universal scientific laws.

	Erasmus Publishing - Out of Galileo
		This book traces the developing science of moving water from Benedetto Castelli, Galileo's student and follower, through the early 18th century Paduan professor, Giovanni Poleni, the last representative of a Galilean tradition on the subject.
		The author points out that hydraulics was primarily an Italian science during the 17th century due to flooding along the Reno in the territory of Bologna, where efforts early in the century to relieve flooding in Ferrara had imposed a disaster on Bologna, as well as to the eternal problem of the Venetian lagoon.
		The scientific scene in the Italian "Seicento"; The birth of the science of river hydraulics; Further debates up to Castelli's Book II Della misura dell'acque correnti; The law of efflux; In the steps of Torricelli; The fading of princely patronage: the fate of Borelli.

		Research on the first problem began with attempts to place earthquake occurrence in a global framework, and it contributed to the discovery of plate tectonics; research on the second was driven by the needs of earthquake engineering, and it led to the development of seismic hazard analysis.
		One consequence of recent interactions between these fields is that theoretical physicists have adopted a family of idealized models of earthquake faults as one of their favorite paradigms for a broad class of nonequilibrium phenomena (4).
		Quasi-dynamic models are parameterized in terms such as the strength excess (how close the fault is to failure before the earthquake begins), the dynamic stress drop (difference between the initial stress and the residual sliding friction), and the slip-weakening displacement (amount of slip required to reach the sliding frictional stress).

		Bloodletting was going out of style by then, but the fact that such an important person was given that treatment indicates it was once a state-of-the-art technique.
		"Heme iron is the preferred iron source during the initiation of infection," write Skaar and colleagues in the Sept. 10 issue of Science.
		They say that targeting or inhibiting the bacteria's ability to obtain iron is a promising area of research that may create novel options for therapy against infection.

	Ridiculed science mavericks vindicated
		While it's true that at least 99% of revolutionary announcements from the fringes of science are just as bogus as they seem, we cannot dismiss every one of them without any investigation.
		Normal science texts are dishonest to the extent that they hide the huge mistakes made by the scientific community, and the acts of intellectual suppression directed at the following researchers by colleagues.
		The result: the new science of amorphous semiconductor physics, as well as inexpensive thin-film semiconductor technology (in particular the amorphous solar cell, photocopier components, and writeable CDROMS sold by Sharp Inc.) made millions for Japan rather than for the US.
