Conscious perception is the ability of human beings to become aware of the

Nintendo announced today that it has set a new date for Switch 2 pre-orders in the U.S. — the new console’s preorders will open on April 24. It also added that the price for the console and its pre-announced flagship games will remain the same, but the prices of some of the Switch 2 accessories will change due to “changes in market conditions.” The Switch 2 is still $450, or $500 if you purchase the bundle with Mario Kart World. That game will also cost $80, and Donkey Kong Bananza will remain

Ocean Tides and the Earth's Rotation An Introductory Discussion Courtesy of the Tides affect the earth's rotation in two sharply contrasting ways. One way, caused by tidal friction, produces an extremely slow secular change in rotation.

These rapid changes occur at exactly the same periods as the tides themselves -- half-daily, daily, etc. (The IERS Special Bu
