Nature by Numbers
I have long tried to explain the intrinsic mathematical nature of all life, which I understood through the study of geometry, but could never grasp through Algebraic terms.... and as a blundering scientist this video shows in the simplest terms that which I have understood without words for a lifetime....
I am so grateful to have it explained in such simple terms ... OH if my Algebra teacher had just shown me this video...... Wow

Robert Girandola has Joined Art Ability World
Robert Girandola Studio
BIOGRAPHY
Robert Girandola has been drawn to art from an early age. His first ‘waking memory’ is drawing a whale. Just six or seven years old, he recalls his father asking him if he would like to try his oil paints. He jumped at the chance and hasn’t put down the brushes since. Building on his natural talent, Girandola would spend hours every day painting or drawing. His hard work paid off early when as a teenager, "The Paint Box", oil on canvas, was chosen from artists across New Jersey, to hang in the final exhibit of the Teen Arts Festival at the NJ State Museum.
In addition to his love of painting and drawing, Robert loves science and philosophy. ‘I wanted to know everything about the human form.’ he explains, regarding his decision to study biology at Fairfield University. He worked on chemistry, cellular biology and calculus during the day and painted at night. The art department noticed his work, and awarded Girandola his own studio for independent study. At graduation the up and coming artist was awarded a rare honor afforded a science major, the Fairfield University Studio Art award.
Following college, Girandola worked as a research scientist applying his knowledge of molecular biology in the cutting edge field of immunodiagnostics. The work was fascinating but his passion for art was not satisfied. Robert applied to a graduate MFA program at Columbia University. One of just twenty-four artists selected, he enjoyed two exhilarating and intense years studying art. Top contemporary artists visited weekly, including Elizabeth Murray, Joel Shapiro and Gregory Amenoff.
Upon completion of his MFA, Robert was further recognized by renowned writer and art historian Rainer Crone to show in ‘Art of the New’ in NYC. In early 1990, he helped coordinate an exchange of art and artists with the now defunct Soviet Union. In an incredible journey that had a profound impact on Girandola’s view of the world, he made his way from West Germany, through East Germany, across Poland and a good portion of the Soviet Union. Robert was one of the first Westerners to pass through the smashed Berlin wall. Images of isolation and desolation haunt him to this day. ‘I had little idea, really, little true appreciation for the power of ideas, the power of freedom.’
Robert continues to earn critical recognition. He has been chosen twice to participate in the prestigious ‘Art of the Northeast’ in New Canaan, Connecticut. Most recently he was chosen to design a bronze 9/11 memorial tribute honoring four firefighters who perished in the North Tower. This piece is now on permanent display down near the WTC.
As an emerging artist gathering admirers internationally, Robert considers his art to be an important message, challenge and responsibility. He delivers the message, challenge and responsibility artfully. In Robert’s own words, ‘There has been a poignant thread that runs through my adult life tying it all together. I am continually more involved in creating works that touch on freedom, spirituality and overcoming self-limitations. It's my intention to contribute to the body of work that awakens the soul to itself.’

Frank Kern Changed My Life Tonight
I was sent an email by Kyle Griffith tonight which was an invitation to a presentation given by Frank Kern
Here is the link
http://getcoreinfluence.com/?ref=G1Ud7gW4uo2fYSHW
The BEST piece that came out of this one hour presentation was the following question...
If there were no limitations and no consequences what would your perfect day look like?
If you take the time to think about this question and draft an answer, I think, it will change your life too.... for if each of us took the time to think about that most perfect day, how would you reconstruct your business and your life to accomodate the continuation of creating more perfect days...
It struck me like a bolt of lightening.
I suddenly remembered that I have lived an incredible life, and have had an amazing opportunity to so many of the things that I have "wanted" to do and that have enriched my life in so many ways...and it has been the experience that has given me greater courage to continue to expand my life, my options and to live each day so much more fully.
If I can affect my clients in this way...to give but one day of living their dream to its fullest potential, then I will have succeeded, for from that there is no return but to do MORE of it.
Take the challenge if you will.
I look forward to your results, your reflections and your comments here...and if there is anything that I can do to further you towards your "perfect" day in YOUR life, then I will do everything possible to help you achieve it.
I am so excited to see what comes out of this note, probably more than any other post I have ever created here on Face Book...
For if you have a "taste" of the life you seek, you can never settle, again for that which does not bring you the greatest joy
With SINCERE gratitude to Kyle Griffith for sharing Frank's post with me tonight.
Always
Sian Lindemann
So I encourage you to do the same thing.
Listen to the presentation that Frank has shared with you here today.
Answer the question...
and I so look forward to your comments on what you will do to accomplish your perfect day.
Let's do everything we can do to share, support and encourage all of those around us to live that perfect day...so that everyday of your dreams now becomes the LIFE you now have
