The God Particle

Author: Valentine L. Krumplis
language: en
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
Release Date: 2012-05
Today the discovery of the so-called God particle, the Higgs boson particle is forcing us to rethink our idea of God and how he thinks. Applying the theory of the God particle as the basic building block of everything that exists, we can easily ascribe the creation of all existing forms as simply God's way of thinking or intelligent design. Our story is the ability to change forms, rearrange the God particles by human beings, which comes about as a side effect from an illegal stem cell drug given to paralyze people. The patients are able to do out of the body travel, upsetting our legal systems. The story leads us to crimes committed by the out-of-body travelers, the law enforcement, efforts frustrated by the lack of physical explanations. An analysis by law enforcement of these weird crimes now delves into shape shifting and vampire studies, which seems related to the out-of-the-body travel. The story presents the new power, which must be stopped as a danger to our whole political system. Morally, illegality of stem cell cures, conscience of might makes right, shift shifting, vampires, and the so-called Rapture or second coming are all woven together to bring the reader into a debate about religion, science, morality, and God.
Relativity

"In the vein of Jodi Picoult's House Rules and Nick Hornby's About a Boy, a debut novel about an exceptionally gifted boy who discovers the truth about his past, his overprotective single mother who tries desperately to shield him from it, and the father he has never met who is trying to come back into his life"--
Intelligent Virtual Agents

Predicting the future is a risky game, and can often leave egg on one’s face. However when the organizers of the Intelligent Virtual Environments workshop at the European Conference on AI predicted that the field of Intelligent Virtual Agents would grow and mature rapidly, they were not wrong. From this small workshop spawned the successful one on Intelligent Virtual Agents, held in Manchester in 1999. This volume comprises the proceedings of the much larger third workshop held in Madrid, September 10 11, 2001, which successfully achieved the aim of taking a more international focus, bringing together researchers from all over the world. We received 35 submissions from 18 different countries in America, Asia, and Africa. The 16 papers presented at the conference and published here show the high quality of the work that is currently being done in this field. In addition, five contributions were selected as short papers, which were presented as posters at the workshop. This proceedings volume also includes the two prestigious papers presented at the workshop by our keynote speakers: Daniel Thalmann, Professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne and Director of the Computer Graphics Lab., who talked about The Foundations to Build a Virtual Human Society. Jeff Rickel, Project Leader at the Information Sciences Institute and a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Southern California, who debated about Intelligent Virtual Agents for Education and Training: Opportunities and Challenges.
