Cairns (Queensland, Australia) - In the week before Christmas 2010, Cairns will experience a major cyclone. The cyclone will slowly form over a period of about 7 days and, by the time it impacts the region, it will be a Category 5 cyclone. The cyclone will cross the coast in the early morning hours. Many buildings and houses will be significantly damaged, as will infrastructure such as electricity, phone lines and rail. Cairns CBD will have widespread damage. Banana and sugar cane crops will be obliterated in some areas, causing much difficulty for local farmers. There will be many minor injuries sustained by the local population, as well as a few deaths.

In a 1990 survey of members of the National Academy of Sciences, only 2% of the respondents thought that extrasensory perception had been scientifically demonstrated, with another 2% thinking that the phenomena happened sometimes. Asked about research in the field, 22% thought that it should be discouraged, 63% that it should be allowed but not encouraged, and 10% that it should be encouraged; neuroscientists were the most hostile to parapsychology of all the specialties. [25] [26]Summer starts with the Summer Solstice, around the 21st June, and corresponds to the beginning of Cancer.

In 1930, the London Spiritualist Alliance published a series of five books under L.S.A Publications Ltd. These were: In the 1930s, at Duke University, Joseph Banks Rhine established the world's first laboratory dedicated to formal experimental testing of psychic claims. At Duke, J.B. Rhine devised standardized procedures for testing extrasensory perception (telepathy and clairvoyance), psychokinesis (the ability to affect physical objects using mental intention), and precognition (ability to predict future events).

Psychic abilities are common in science fiction, often under the term " psionics". They may be depicted as innate and heritable, as in Alfred Bester's The Demolished Man, A. E. van Vogt's Slan, Anne McCaffrey's Talents universe series or setting, and the television series Babylon 5. Another recurring trope is the conveyance of psychic power through psychoactive drugs, as in the Dune novels and indirectly in the Scanners films, as well as the ghosts in the StarCraft franchise. Somewhat differently, in Madeleine L'Engle's A Wind in the Door and Robert A. Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land, psychic abilities may be achieved by any human who learns the proper mental discipline, known as kything in the former work. Popular movies include The Initiation of Sarah. Psychic characters are also common in superhero comics, for instance Jean Grey, Professor X and Emma Frost as well as many others from the Marvel Comics' X-Men. More characters include the characters Raven Baxter and Booker Baxter from the Disney Channel Original Series That's So Raven and its spin-off Raven's Home. The Disney Channel Original Series American Dragon: Jake Long features recurring characters Cara and Sara, who are twin psychics claimed to be the descendants of the Oracle of Delphi, their visions also contrast their personalities (Cara is a Goth that sees only positive visions, while Sara is always in a good mood despite only seeing negative visions).
