Hey y'all I am back for a while.

I have a question for fascist GOS, your peer review process, how sure of it are you?

You are quick to stifle debate with your demands for evidence that our suggestions or theories have not been peer reviewed so therefore they are false! Well Gossy boy the balls in your court, prove the legitimacy of the peer review process!

****By the way new folks to the forum - Gos is an agent for the federal government sent in here to direct your disillusioned minds in a specific direction towards conformity.  Don't listen to him read for yourselves!!****

Read previous posts, see where he tries to stiffle debate then go research it for yourself.  Also go research the peer review process, you may find that for most academics it is outdated, elitist and controlled by conformists of the state.

Also, check previous posts where GOS has been accused prior to my claim.  Think for yourself, don't be taken in!

1. I’m thinking for myself that’s why am not just going with what you say.

2. Accusations are just that, accusations.

3. It is up to you to post this and show your sources, don’t waist my afternoon.

Wow..

The peer review process is by a neutral evaluation process involving scholars who specialize in the field of concern. These scholars can be cops, fascists, libertarian, socialists and what not. They are not elected by the state, and can involve individuals who totally despise the state. The Unabomber tested his hypothesis through this route for gods sakes and he has nothing to do with the government.

It is for that reason we have a neutral arena to observe a reinforced hypothesis. There are numerous peer-review journals out there, many are lax with regards to what can be written. Journals actually fall under a variety of disciplines and are extremely diverse even within disciplines. The only reason why 9/11 truth nonsense can't go through the peer-review system (i.e. hundreds of journals worldwide) is because the hypothesis needs to be reworked on.

Note, peer-review is a highly decentralized disciplines. Often you have thousands of researchers attempting to reinforce their hypothesis, and many, unfortunately, have to rework because it does not proceed under their own trials. It is totally not worthwhile controlling free thinkers simply because no one listens to them. In contrast those documentaries loaded with rhetoric can go so far throughout the mainstream.

How about you rant about something that can actually change the world for the better? GOS has figured that out, apparently you aren't there yet.

But honestly, I bet most people who believe in the 9/11 conspiracy do so not because of proof but because they wish it was true so they can have something to complain or rebel against. That explains why most 9/11 conspiracies are white suburban kids, they don't see or are affected by the true criminal activities of this world so boris, instead of setting out to slay a magical dragon that you wish was attacking your town, focus on the real corrupt dictator that is running it.

Yawn...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_review

I can't believe that you are trying to defame me because I ask for evidence that has been reviewed by people who are knowledgeable in the field.  Yeah, that's me, trying to stifle debate by saying that you need to support your claims with evidence from strong sources that have a track record of being reliable.  If they were so strong, then they would withstand peer-review.  It's not a perfect process by any stretch of the imagination, but it is better than anything you offer.

But let's be specific.  How am I a fascist when I don't lock threads, don't delete posts and let you put whatever topic up that you want?  Why are you obsessed with me when all of your claims are bullshit?  It's funny how you and your group are literally obsessed with me because I am a better debater than you, know more about this world than you and don't fear the "federal government" or myriad other boogeymen that you claim I need to be afraid of.  It's pathetic actually.

Why don't you pull up some specific threads and provide some actual evidence to support your specious claims?  Why do you tell everyone to trust you without providing ANY supports for your claims?  Why are you so lazy that you tell everyone to do your research for you?  And why should anyone trust you anyways my Irish friend?  You aren't even from the US, yet are obsessed with its government.  I have an answer:  it's because you're full of shit.

lol i was waiting on the very reliable wikipedia being quoted -

My argument is none of the above but rather that peer review is conducted anonymously and by those that may have prejudice against certain authors and theories for whatever beliefs they may hold.

Also it is elitist in nature and stiffles proper debate if it goes against the proper notion of what is acceptable and what is not.

Here are some links containing those who oppose the notion of peer review as the be all and end all of scientific and academic debate.

I will keep you posted with more over the coming days, weeks and months as I research it further.

But what my evidence does suggest is that peer review is not enough to demand that certain theories may be incorrect because there is no peer review evidence to back it up, remember that peer review as an institution is exactly that, an institution and open to corruption and prejudice.

The good thing about my post is that I am not asking you to agree unlike the peer review process, I am encouraging new disaffected minds on this forum to think for themselves and not to believe or be forced into accepting the dominant opinion on this forum because i now understand that the dominant opinion on this forum is here for a reason and not for the better of us.

Listen to tech, read for yourselves?!!!

The funniest part of this is that you still haven't offered up any arguments that I will disagree with.  I am saying that a peer-reviewed article, ON AVERAGE, is better than one that is not.  A scientific claim that is made and not reviewed by others in the field, is suspect.  If you believe your claim is strong, then submit it to SEVERAL reviews, have colleagues and experts examine it.  It's funny that none of your articles say that it should be thrown out altogether, rather that one should be a skeptic of them.  If you disagree with a peer-reviewed source, etc. then provide EVIDENCE as to why.  Don't just say that anything that is peer-reviewed cannot be trusted and vice versa.  It does however, lend credibility to your theory if someone examines the methodology, or several someones, who are all experts in using that methodology, and say that it is sound.

Your argument Boris is tantamount to pointing to evolution and saying "there are holes in it!"  Well, duh, nothing is perfect, but there is a rather large mountain of evidence that it is correct.  Same with the peer review process.  Is it perfect?  No, but it is far superior to someone making a claim about controlled demolition and then not having anyone look at the argument who might have relevant expertise.  The process has resulted in the very technology that you are using to attack me, and just about every other technological development of the last 100 years.  Corporations use it in-house, nearly every academic institution/discipline relies on it. Why?  Because skepticism should be at the heart of any inquiring mind. 

People are considered experts for a reason.  If you cannot get them to agree with your theory, then it's probably true that the theory you are advocating has some serious holes in it. 

All I am saying is that if you think your theory is so strong, then why not submit it to the most rigorous process that it can be examined under?  What do you advocate instead?  Do you advocate that people just accept anything that YOU or others claim? 

Before there were established peer-review protocols in medicine, you know what there was?  The snake-oil salesman.  The huckster.  The person who went town to town claiming, without evidence, that his/her magic pill would cure particular illnesses. 

But I want to see your evidence that I am saying that people must accept my own personal standards for evidence.  Seriously, you make a lot of claims WITHOUT EVIDENCE and then expect people to believe them.  Certainly the only thing this whole thread has to do with is my skepticism of 9/11 inside job theories.  If the movement didn't think that peer-review was important, from a scientific perspective, then why would it feel the need to create this little rag:

It is about 9/11 though he doesn't say it directly.  I ask him, and any other TR00f3R to post something from a reliable source, someone who is truly an expert in the field.  I ask them, since they claim their evidence is so strong, to provide one peer reviewed study from a legitimate journal recognized as important by experts within the field.  Of course, they don't have that, in spite of the "strength" of their argument.  So instead of saying, well, maybe our evidence isn't that strong and GoS has a good point, they accuse me of "stifling debate" and "working for the G0VERNMENTZ". 

There is ONE peer reviewed article from a respected source:

http://www.debunking911.com/paper.htm

But they won't accept its findings.  So instead of submitting their "strong" arguments to rigorous examination by experts, they attack peer review as a process.  That's because most of them are intellectually dishonest and know that the science does NOT support their arguments.  If it did, journals would be GLAD to publish the findings.  Why?  This would be a REVOLUTIONARY publication, if it ever happened, and why wouldn't scientists want to be a part of it?  It would be legendary.  But instead, they claim that there exists some vast conspiracy to keep the Tr00F from the people.  This conspiracy includes silencing all of the editors, etc. of these various journals or encouraging them to stamp out 9/11 Tr00F by some shadowy, as yet unnamed entity (THE G0VERNMENTZ!).

It's all an attempt to lend credibility to the "science" that supports their position, when there isn't much to be had.

This is ridiculous, why would he use the BMJ editorial to downplay peer-review?

Quote
Summary points

    Blinding reviewers to the author's identity does not usefully improve the quality of reviews
    Passing reviewers' comments to their co-reviewers has no effect on quality of review
    Reviewers aged under 40 and those trained in epidemiology or statistics wrote reviews of slightly better quality
    Appreciable bias and parochialism have been found in the peer review system
    Developing an instrument to measure manuscript quality is the greatest challenge
These are totally understandable suggestions. Peer-review isn't perfect, and the dynamic field: medicine now requires higher level of knowledge in related-disciplines unlike before. Statistics is now standard in undergrad medicine for this reason, and higher emphasis on professionalism is part of the curriculum.

The peer review culture which involves employing a negative feed back system isn't always employed by reviewers side due to vested interests. Such behaviour is quite noticeable in reviews written where highly superfluous reviews are written to discredit sound papers. However, the pro-9/11 Truth papers are not even headed by the appropriate experts, and believe me, we got a number of engineers here, so there is no lack of accessibility on our side.

PS: Provide the evidence. Peer-reviewed, of course. Smiley

First of, it is not about 9/11, it is about most subjects that someone may try to address, which if certain individuals on here don't agree with then they conveniently hide behind peer review as a method of stifling debate.

I am not for peer review to be removed or scrapped, I think it should be used on conventional debates, however what I am demonstrating is that it has a lot of fundamental flaws and cannot be used as a holy bible of what is right and what is wrong. 

Absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence.  It just means that somewhere along the chain certain pieces of evidence are not being shown to the rest of us, and yes call this conspiracy but it happens.  And in western societies it happens quite a lot.

And can you provide cases where peer-review evidence used here is flawed? Yes, certain journals can be flawed, but for most part, the sources we refer to our quite reliable. A hell lot more than some B-level youtube documentary.

Quote
Absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence.
Bob: "I've seen a kangaroo flying @ Mach 5.2, 50,000ft above sea level."

Sceptic: "Those figures seem interesting, but more importantly, do you have any evidence?"

Bob: "No, but do remember, Absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence, hence a probability of said phenomena is present." Shocked

That said, there is a reason why evidence is asked for. It is because a hypothesis that lacks evidence cannot be reviewed under a negative feedback system.

Do understand that the passage, "Absence of evidence does not mean evidence of absence", actually suggests that the probability of it not being absent exists. For that reason you are expected to provide evidence (i.e. peer-review) that the probability of that being case is higher than a flying kangaroo intercepting terrain hugging cruise missile @ Mach 5.3. I ask, peer-review, because only civil engineers ought to be commenting on this matter.

First off, I just want to say FUCK YOU for your slander of me.  You know nothing of me as a person but feel qualified to make completely BASELESS claims about who I am and what my agenda is. 

But let's talk about your claim.  1.  Let's see some actual evidence of this happening.  I can think of two types of threads where this happens:  1.  The God threads and 2. 9/11 threads.  But like most slanderous liars, you don't have any specifics, none.  It's totally typical of those who come here and hurl insults and accusations.  You have NO specifics, but expect your libelous claims to be taken seriously.

No one has ever, ever claimed that it was perfect.  Quite the opposite, but it's better than anything that people, like you, have.

Neither does the contrary.  It does happen, but it happens a lot less in societies where there is a rigorous process to determine the veracity of a subject.  If you think otherwise, then show some actual evidence (I find all of this ironic since you are making allegations without posting ANY actual evidence of malfeasance or even a SINGLE thread where your accusations take place), instead of engaging in the very behavior that you are trying to be critical of.

GOS - For such an educated man surely you mean libellous?  It's difficult to tell whether you know which?!

And Bob (provide peer-reviewed evidence) you prove my point very well. It is like the break down of world events as good versus evil, it is not that simple, and events cannot be categorised into those two categories.  Hence not everything can be peer reviewed. 

The process is a cop-out that is used conviently as I have already mentioned to stifle debate and hide/deny misdeeds. 

Without hard evidence as you suggest, proving wrongs of the State is something that cannot be proved conclusively, hence the term conspiracy!  But that is not to say it hasn't happened! (Unfortunately whistleblowers are not accepted and those who do come forward get bumped off or harrassed, basically it is a warning to others not to come forward)  What gets me though, is that you cannot entertain the idea, but instead dismiss it out of hand because it cannot be peer-reviewed.  And no matter what nonsense you guys spit on here, that is stifling debate!!

And GOS, either that is your own arrogance and narrow-mindedness or it is because you are working towards an agenda.  That is for people on here to decide, but until I see evidence to the contrary (peer-reviewed of course) then the agenda option is the opinion I will continue to hold!

Nice Boris, but you fit both definitions.  You are slandering my character through your libelous (printed) actions.  They can be used interchangeably here my friend, and here's evidence why:

Quote
1.   defamation; calumny: rumors full of slander.
2.   a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report: a slander against his good name.

We are not in a court of law or else this would apply:

Quote
3.   Law. defamation by oral utterance rather than by writing, pictures, etc.

Your opening line in your post is slanderous.  It is an attempt to defame my character.

Quote
1.   Law.
a.   defamation by written or printed words, pictures, or in any form other than by spoken words or gestures.
b.   the act or crime of publishing it.
c.   a formal written declaration or statement, as one containing the allegations of a plaintiff or the grounds of a charge.
2.   anything that is defamatory or that maliciously or damagingly misrepresents.

Synonyms Boris...
 

But what is funny is again you claim that I have an agenda, which you have no concrete examples of, all you would need to do is post a thread showing my agenda.  You have no evidence that I, or anyone else here is using peer review to "hide behind".  You have claims and accusations and nothing else.  Please Boris, just ONE THREAD, just one, any thread.  Otherwise you are doing and saying nothing.

You would make an awful lawyer.  You have rhetoric and nothing else.  Rhetoric is the last line of defense for those who have a weak argument or no argument at all.  Lastly, you are entitled to your opinion, but it is an opinion that is worth little or nothing since it is based on perception (without evidence) instead of reality.  I am sorry that I am persuasive in my arguments.  I am sorry that you feel ill-equipped to actually argue the MERITS of something.  I am sorry that I encourage people to have the utmost skepticism when people make extraordinary claims, claims that should be looked at by experts and people with the requisite training and background in order to pull the nuance out of them.  But those are YOUR issues, and they do not give you the right to defame me and accuse me, rather falsely, of being a "federal government agent".  I find that laughable, since which federal government are we talking about my Irish friend?

Mobile-friendly version Immortal Technique Biography

Born Felipe Andres Coronel on the 19th of February 1978, hip-hop artist Immortal Technique is a controversial figure in the U.S. His songs speak of the need for social justice and equality among all races, with special emphasis on the people of color or Latin Americans, but they also cover topics such as the fight against unfair imprisonments or militarism and many others.

His biography is hence quite intriguing, to say the least, and, just like the best anti aging cream is probably going to be lingering over the shelves of all cosmetic stores for many years to come, Immortal Technique’s songs are going to remain hot, fresh and sought after for a really long time. Due to the fact they speak about topics which are to be considered taboos, his lyrics continue to be listened to with the exterior shutters down in most homes.

Immortal technique was born in Peru, in El Hospital Militar de Lima; several years later, his family moved to America in order to escape the harsh living conditions in Peru. Even though they could not afford to buy any terrain a vendre there, they managed to move to Harlem in the ‘80s. Immortal Technique went to Hunter High School, but just like a hip replacement recall is never of good omen, his grades and behavior weren’t any good during high school either. He was the school bully, he harassed other students and he was not afraid to get involved in scandals with drug dealers from around the area. And while his interactions with these drug dealers were not as numerous as used cars in Phoenix are, they still managed to leave an ugly mark on his biography.

Plus, his graffiti did not actually resemble any Dreamweaver templates, but he was famous for his controversial acts of vandalism. His violence against others almost got him expelled in 1996, but he somehow managed to finish high school and even attend college at Pennsylvania State University. This time, his college experience only lasted for two years; he was then charged and convicted and he was eventually imprisoned in Pennsylvania.

In prison, just like a SEO San Antonio company would focus on booting a web site’s ranking, Immortal Technique also focused on boosting his own social ranking. He began studying the policy of religious history, and, finding the inspiration he needed, he began putting his thoughts in lyrics. In 1999 he was paroled and, even though he was first considered some sort of Agen Bola, as no one had heard of him at first, he began to attend freestyle battles he started winning.

He also became a political activist and started to sing about political injustice (check out his opinion on the imprisonment of Mumia Abu-Jamal or the songs on George W. Bush).

The History and Growth of Rap Music

If you are a music enthusiast, then it is very likely that you have come across a genre of music called rap music. Rap music is area that has very clear distinguishing features most notably the rapid and rhythmic chanting of the lyrics perfectly timed to the beat and musical accompaniment that forms the base of the song. Rap music traces its roots to the development of the hiphop subculture which predominantly carries four complementary musical styles namely: rapping, dancing and in particular break dancing, scratching or more popularity known as DJing, and graffiti writing which others dub as vandalism. Another sub-element of this genre is beat-boxing which also features heavily in the repertoire of many rap artists. If you thought this was an easy musical genre to characterize, then you were poorly informed: consider, many research papers and doctoral dissertations have been written on the subject of rap music and its accompanying stylistic elements.

The history of rap music, or hip-hop music, is composed of a series of rapid development phases that have all culminated in the popular rap versions of today. Before rap music took off in the 1990s, it was predominantly referred to as disco rap in the late 1970s. The three rappers who had a hand in coining the term “rap music” were DJ Hollywood, Lovebug Starski, and Keith Cowboy, the last one being officially credited with the term hip-hop. Rap music original began with improvisations and freestyle singing to add an element of unpredictability to the songs in parties and other gatherings. Even in the 1960s to 1970s, the initial elements of rap music where already sown in urban subcultures particularly in New York City where adhoc performances in the streets led to a coalescing of influences in the wake of the Civil Rights era. Like the iPhone 5 release date, it had a slow and steady rise building into an explosion of creativity and style that has made it into what it has become today.

At this very early stage of rap development, it was particularly tied to emcee-ing more than it was associated to any specific song. It predominantly tied songs together as an adlib in between. It was born out of the creative inputs of DJs who had to work with self-imposed musical constraints such as the 4/4 time beat and sampling or sequencing sections of other songs to create a smooth flow of uninterrupted musical stimuli. These were eventually married with electronic equipment such as drums and synthesizers, and ultimate melodies to give it that bite and identity. In a sense, rap music artists were basically like a video game designer who had to figure out each artistic component at every turn until it developed into a more coherent musical genre that became the rap music we know today.

The first recorded version of rap music came alive in the early 1980s when DJs decided to make records out of their freestyle MCing. This necessitated the documentation of song lyrics so they do not change during each and every rendition. The age of the stromanbieter for rap music was gone paving the way for more organized chaos. Still, the freestyle and improvisation element remained a part of many DJ interludes as the song goes through certain sections that did not require too much rap singing.

Likewise, as a consequence of the hip-hop records, the influence of rap began to spread faster than ever before. Artists no longer had to travel far to get their music heard. Now, records from New York City and Philadelphia can be reproduced and transported to cities like Los Angeles, New Orleans, Dallas, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Seattle among others for people to appreciate and enjoy. This was primarily the reason for rap music’s rapid growth. Like Christmas mini lights, cities formed the nodes through which rap music would spread to other parts of the country. From small beginnings to grand achievements, the birth certificate translation to true stardom took a matter of years for rap music to be realized. Since then, its take-off and rise has been meteoric.

In this regard, it is almost impossible to talk about rap music but not discuss the golden age of rap. This was the era from the late 1980s to the mid 1990s when rap grew at an astounding rate fueled by the creative contributions of many artists from all over the continental United States and in many parts of the world. The primary trait of the Golden Age or Rap was that it was an almost unbroken wave of transformative music with every single pushing the boundaries of the genre. From this age and in the succeeding Gansta Rap age came names like Run-D.M.C., Dr. Dre, Ice T, MC Hammer, The Wu-tang Clan, Snoop Dogg, and The Notorious B.I.G. among others. The list of names can virtually fill a Sharepoint Hive without any problems.

According to social studies published in 2005, teenagers and children are more familiar with hip-hop and rap music more than any other musical genre. Up to 65% of all children from ages 8 to 18 hear hip-hop music on a daily basis, making it their routinary keratin hair treatment session, almost to the point that it has become an intrinsic part of their lives. With the diversification of the genre to include the more stylish R&B or rhythm and blues, it is not difficult to explain how rap music has continued to pervade radio station, TV and movie song line-ups. The marriage of rap and jazz which paved the way for R&B is itself a phenomenon that warrants all sorts of social analysis.

And with its very strong following, it is safe to say that rap music is here to stay. Years from now, when you open your TV on a bright Saturday morning, there’s a big chance you would be watching the next stage in the evolution of rap music, and there’s an even better chance you would be dancing or singing to that tune.
