Its Friday and its getting closer to Christmas.  For Online shoppers the shipping deadlines are approaching in just a few days, but its not too late to get some great deals shopping online.

Three types of Holiday Shoppers

During the holidays three types of web shoppers tend to emerge. 

1. Those that do not shop anywhere unless they have a coupon code or special offer
2. Those that never shop with a coupon code and never get the great deals,
3. , and those like myself that don’t remember where they saw that last coupon deal and can’t find it when they are staring at the check out screen.

My solution that only works about 30% of the time is to do a quick Google search with the name of the site and the keyword coupon code or discount code.  Sometimes I find what I’m looking for, sometimes I don’t and sometimes I get duped into going to some website where I don’t want to be.

Ahead of the Game with Codes

My readers you can learn from my mistakes, by keeping a handy website close at hand, bookmarked or just search back to my blog in your moment of need.

Here’s a great regional site with Online Coupon codes that are good at stores around the country. We are talking about the internet after all!

This year I’m going to hit up the Apple Store with some of their discounts to get a couple different iPod’s and maybe a new laptop (refurbished deals available too). My wife is a Target devotee and will definitely save us some money with coupons that provide 10% off orders all the way up to $500 (that’s a $50 savings).

So If you get some shopping done tonight or tomorrow or even early next week before the shipping timeline hits, save yourself some money!

The site is very easy to navigate, just pick your store and you’ll get a listing of all the coupon codes available for that store.  Simple as can be.

Happy Holidays!

We wake up, we get ready for work, we go to work, we work, we come home, we work some more, we watch TV, we might go to sleep and then repeat.

The common thing that we all usually experience is that time moves forward, but what if Physics and Neurology actually showed us that time doesn’t always move forward.

According to this series, Because Science Matters, there are a number of experiments that seem to show that people can sense an experience through their sensory perceptions, but send the information from these senses back in time to our brains such that we can project the anticipation our sense will live.

Huh?

As a working example the video describes test that measured the speed of response in the brain resulting from a pin prick on our finger can actually show up in our brain just before the pin prick actually occurs.

If we accept this concept and rethink our own positions on time, just as Einstein and almost every physicist has since, how can we use this information?

When we are working with skills that require sensory perception and stimuli can we actually let our senses take us ahead of the time curve and inform our brains ahead of time.

Baseball players could receive the information that the ball is coming, relay the sensory perception of this back to their brains and prepare their swing to connect with the ball.  Its not anticipation and a backwards projection of the future.  This scenario was actually covered by researchers.

MindMapping with our Time Traveling Brain

When we mindmap out thoughts its widely recognized that we engage more of our senses.  This engagement gives users the perception that they are absorbing the material ‘faster’ and a great deal of research has been done over the last forty years to prove that people learn more comprehensively and more quickly when there are multiple stimuli including colors, pictures, shapes, symbols, sounds, feeling and smell.

For forty years people have looked at this type of learning from the perspective that we are speeding up our brains ability to digest the information.  What if our brain was not only processing it faster, but receiving the processed information seconds before we saw and absorbed it.  Maybe these MindMap led meetings are actually enabling us to come to decisions faster  and figure out complex solutions as if ‘the answer was intuitively apparent’ because we are training our senses to project information to our brains in the past where the information can be processed and more rapidly prepared for action, just like a home run hitting baseball player learns the technique of mind and body to connect with the ball with explosive force.

If this theory holds true, then the more we can dynamically engage our senses the more likely we will be to benefit from heightened backward projection and the more time our brains will receive in forewarning of the information.  By cheating and allowing our brains and senses to engage in time travel, we actually benefit from having MORE TIME to process an idea and thus when measured like a metric our holistic body as a system of sensors and organs including the brain benefits from time traveling information.

What will you do with all of that extra time now that you better understand your own system?  Better yet, knowing this bio information system capability can we extend this concept to some of the bio computing devices and teach our computers to process the information before we ask the question or execute the run command?
