Such as, say, telekinesis or something of the sort?

Obviously I don't believe anything ridiculous like someone can teleport, but theoretically if someone was to gain the control of the positive and negative ions inside of them, may be they could focus it to push a very light-weighted object.

If this is sounding familiar, I wouldn't be surprised because I got the idea from the TV series "Kyle XY". It is about a boy who (spoiler warning) was created in a gestation chamber allowing him and his brain to develop for a much longer time than 9 months (16 years) obtaining a brain superior to every human to ever live.

Back on topic, would any of this be possible?

i don't get why dry ice forms on roads? sure it is cold but not below 109 farinheit. sure exahust comes out the back tail pipe but isn't that carbon monoaxide not dioxide so why does it form on roads giving us terrible driving conditions?

Mars is supposed to be closer tonight than it will be for the next 9 years. I'm using a meade telescope that my dad picked up for about $800 a few years back. I found Mars, but I'm not impressed. What I see in the telescope is basically what I'm seeing with my naked eye. From what I'm reading, my telescope should be able to present a larger "image" of the object in question. I've tried different eye pieces and tried focusing to each eyepiece, but I always get the same result. What am I doing wrong? Shouldn't Mars appear even slightly bigger? Thanks for the help-- Mike.

According to the VSEPR model, the arrangement of electron pairs around NH3 and CH4 are
A. Different b.c in each case there are a different number of atoms around the central atom
B. Different or the same, depending on the conditions leading to maximum repulsion.
C. the same because both nitrogen and carbon are both in the second period
D. different because in each case there are a different number of electron pairs around the central atom
E. the same because in each case there are the same number of electron pairs around the central atom

I always thought I was red/green color blind because I was never able to see the shapes, text, and numbers inside those circles, however according to this article,
http://critiquewall.com/2007/12/10/blindness if I were color blind, I wouldn't be able to see the difference between the sets of two images either. But I can see an obvious difference between the red and the green hues. Why can't I see the anything in the dot tests?
