Which hemisphere is dominant? Take a look at the characteristics chart below to determine if the space separating the ears is left dominant, right dominant, or balanced. Then take the
QUIZ to confirm. Dominance to one side seems to indicate an easier time "meditating" or allowing stillness and cultivating mindfulness and insight once seated. Dominance to the other side suggests more sitting but less bliss, allowing, and realizing our innate potential to gain knowledge-and-vision of things as they really are without our biased interpretations.

A group calling itself "Pro-Test" (advocating animal testing even if it tortures animals or even if it produces results that can not be extrapolated to humans) went to the corner of Westwood Blvd. and Le Conte Ave. A rally in support of animals was taking place. Pro-Test was there to antagonize activists, perhaps even stir up enough emotion to give police a pretext to shut down all protesting.
