Summertime means swimming. But all of those water fights and games of "Marco Polo" come with a serious risk: drowning. Drowning kills about 10 people per day in the United States, and children younger than 5 are at the highest risk.

 It is
possible that our subconscious mind somehow "sees” events 1 to 10

 Bigfoot
research is often the domain of amateur enthusiasts. But some highly
educated scientists in relevant fields, such as primatology and
anthropology, have expressed beliefs that Bigfoot exists or at least
that he may exist and that this possibility should be taken seriously.

 The universe is full of mysteries that challenge our current knowledge. In "Beyond Science" Epoch Times collects stories about these strange phenomena to stimulate the imagination and open up previously undreamed of possibilities. Are they true? You decide. "Genes can’t turn themselves on or off … they can’t control themselves,” Lipton said. If a cell is cut off from any environmental stimuli, it doesn’t do anything. "Life is due to how the cell responds to the environment.”

attention across various alternative media outlets around the world.
Make no mistake, consciousness has been (for quite some time) studied by
numerous scientists, especially in its relation to quantum physics and
how it might be correlated with the nature of our reality.
