I have like a library in my HD! It's divided in several groups! Here's what my Telekinesis article has ( note, this is not made by me ):
QUOTE
Psychokinesis (< Greek ψύχο- + κίνησις, literally "mind-movement") or PK, also known as telekinesis (< Greek τῆλε + κίνησις, literally "distant-movement") or TK, is the influence of mind upon matter, as the use of mental 'power' to move or distort an object. Psychokinesis may also be described by other names, such as remote influencing, distant influencing, remote mental influence, distant mental influence, and directed conscious intention.
Origin
The term telekinesis was coined in 1890[3] by British psychical researcher Frederic William Henry Myers[4] (1843-1901), who was one of the founders of the Society for Psychical Research, located in England. Myers also coined the term telepathy[5]
The term psychokinesis was coined in 1914[6] by American author-publisher Henry Holt[7] and adopted by his friend, American parapsychologist J. B. Rhine.[8] LinPsychokinesis&science www.psychokinesis&science.it

Measurement and observation
Currently researchers describe two basic types of measurable and observable psychokinetic and telekinetic effects in experimental laboratory research and in case reports occurring outside of the laboratory.[9] [10] [11]
micro-PK or micro-TK - A very small effect; cannot be observed directly. Manipulation of molecules, atoms, subatomic particles, etc. Scientific equipment is required for measuring or viewing.
macro-PK or macro-TK - A large-scale effect seen with the unaided eye; clearly observed movement or physical change of an object. Sometimes the word "gross" is used, as in "gross movement of an object."
Notable claimants of psychokinesis or telekinesis
("Claimant" simply means anyone who claims to possess PK/TK powers. Such claims are often disputed).
Uri Geller
* Uri Geller, the Israeli famous for his spoon-bending demonstrations, allegedly by PK.[12]
Nina Kulagina
* Nina Kulagina, alleged Soviet psychic of the late 1960s and early 1970s.[13]
Belief in telekinesis
In September 2006, a survey was published by the Baylor Institute for Studies of Religion, Baylor University, of Waco, Texas, in the United States. It was conducted by phone and mail-in questionnaire the Gallup Organization between October 8, 2005 and December 12, 2005 on behalf of the university. Among its 77 questions and 350 possible answers, one section polled Americans on their belief in various paranormal topics. One of the questions in this section surveyed belief in telekinesis. The word "telekinesis" was specifically used in the subsequent published report, but it did not appear on the printed questionnaire version that was filled out and mailed in by participants. However, those questioned knew they were responding to questions about paranormal beliefs. There were 1,721 participants with a margin of error of plus or minus four percent. Of these participants 28 percent of male participants selected "agree" or "strongly agree" with the statement It is possible to influence the world through the mind alone, as did 31 percent of female participants. The results of other possible answers -- "undecided," "disagree," and "strongly disagree" -- were not made available in the published report.
Cultural references
* H. G. Wells' 1911 story, The Man Who Could Work Miracles, and the 1936 movie of the same title based on it[15], portrays a character with psychokinetic powers (although the word is not used). Arguing in a bar, the character tries to make a hypothetical point by saying "to that lamp, as I might do, collecting all my will, 'Turn upsy-down without breaking, and go on burning steady, and--Hullo!'" Wells writes, "The impossible, the incredible, was visible to them all. The lamp hung inverted in the air, burning quietly with its flame pointing down." The protagonist goes on to make increasingly dramatic demonstrations of his power, ultimately stopping the earth's rotation.[16] Director Brian de Palma noted that the film is "basically about adolescent trauma. Her telekinesis is an extension of her anger."[17] Spacek was nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her portrayal. Co-star Piper Laurie was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
* In the Star Wars movie series, numerous characters have the ability to control the movement of objects using the Force. In the book Star Wars: The Ultimate Visual Guide[18] it is described this way: "Although such ability is commonly known as a Jedi's 'object movement' power, it is more accurately described as a manipulation of the Force—the energy field that surrounds and binds everything—to control the direction of objects through space. Jedi utilize this talent not only to push, pull, and lift objects, but also to redirect projectiles and guide their starships through combat."
* In the X-Men movie series, the female character Jean Grey, also known as Phoenix, based on the Marvel comic book character, has very strong telekinetic powers.[19] In the movies she was played by actress Famke Janssen.
* Actress Ellen Burstyn played a woman with miraculous paranormal healing powers named Edna Mae McCauley in the 1980 film Resurrection[20] set in rural America. She was nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for her portrayal. Co-star Eva Le Gallienne was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
* In the TV series Charmed, telekinesis was featured frequently. Prue Halliwell, one of the three protagonists up until season 3, possessed this ability. The ability runs through several members of the Halliwell family line, including Penny "Grams" Halliwell, Wyatt Halliwell, Chris Halliwell and Paige Matthews, whose Whitelighter genes cause the power to manifest as telekinetic-orbing. In season 8, the character Billie Jenkins was also shown to possess this skill. It was also used by several other witches, warlocks, demons and other magical beings featured throughout the run of the show.[21]
* In the film Matilda and the book of the same name, the title child character has telekinesis. In the movie she was played by Mara Wilson.[22]

Quotes
* "How many people here have telekinetic powers? Raise my hand."
psychokinesis&science www.psychokinesis.it Origin: attributed to American stand-up comedian Emo Philips as a one-liner used in his stage act. It can be found on his CD album "E=MO2" first released in 1990. There is also a subsequent derivative saying "Everyone who believes in telekinesis, raise my hand." This is often incorrectly attributed to James Randi, but he has stated that he did not originate it. However, he did use it in the closing line of his weekly commentary Swift, 15 March 2002.[24]. A similar saying, "How many of you believe in telekinesis, raise MY hands" was used by Rob Fargher as a signature line on one of his 1994 skeptics newsgroup postings[25].
* "mind over matter" — Sir Charles Lyell (1797-1875)
Origin: 1863 in The Geological Evidence of the Antiquity of Man. Fuller quote: "It may be said that, so far from having a materialistic tendency, the supposed introduction into the earth at successive geological periods of life—sensation, instinct, the intelligence of the higher mammalia bordering on reason, and lastly, the improvable reason of Man himself—presents us with a picture of the ever-increasing dominion of mind over matter." There is also a similar saying coined centuries earlier (19 BCE) "the mind moves matter" by the poet Virgil in his work "Aeneid," book 6, line 727.[27] The latter saying in Latin, "mens agitat molem," is the official motto of the Eindhoven University of Technology in The Netherlands.
* "a talent that has to be seen to be believed" — Rod Serling (1924-1975)
Origin: March 24, 1961 in the introduction written by Serling to the Twilight Zone episode The Prime Mover about a telekinetic character played by actor Buddy Ebsen. The episode itself was written by Charles Beaumont. Fuller quote by Serling, after stepping out of a woodland scene and standing in front of the camera: "Portrait of a man who thinks and thereby gets things done. Mr. Jimbo Cobb might be called a 'Prime Mover,' a talent that has to be seen to be believed. In just a moment, he'll show his friend, and you, how he keeps both feet on the ground and his head, in the Twilight Zone."

Telekinesis
The ability to control things with your mind
Method 1-Telekinesis Wall
Sit down and stare at the object that you wish to move. Now, with any type of energy, start making a wall of energy in front of you. When the wall is finished, visualize it as a wall of glass. Put your hand(s) out in front of you and shoot out a little ki to push the wall. Send the wall crashing into the object. With any luck, the item will budge a little. Start with something small, like a cheap plastic ring.
Method 2-Will power
Once again, get in a relaxed state in front of the item. Close your eyes and become familiar with the energy in that room. With your eyes still closed, visualize the object SLOWLY start to move. Re-run the event over and over again in your mind. Open your eyes and see if there was an effect. If there wasn't, then you either didn't put enough time into it, or you don't meditate enough to have a clear mind.
Method 3-Mental Hand
Close your eyes and relax in front of the object. Focus on your aura. Visualize a hand coming from your brain. As it comes out, so is your aura. Slowly lead the hand towards the object. Lead the hand as you would any other. Let it grasp the object. Make it have a tight grip. Now SLOWLY push/pull the object. If your concentration is good enough, you can even try picking it up to make the item float. Open your eyes and look at what is happening.
Spoon Bending
Meditation required before performance:5-10
Pick up a spoon and hold it in your dominant hand. Hold it so that your thumb is placed against the handle just before the spoon-head, and the other 4 placed against the back. Close your eyes and feel out the energy around you. Close your eyes. Start rubbing your thumb up and down on the spoon. After about a minute, the spoon will start to feel warm. In your mind, visualize the thumb and spoon merging together. At this point, your thumb should be the spoon, and the spoon part of your hand (in your mind). Now bend the spoon like you would bend your thumb. Open your eyes and see if you were successful.
Psi Wheel
Take a small object and tie it to a string. Hold the string by the tip so that the item dangles at the bottom. Now Visualize the object twirling in a circle. DO NOT MOVE YOUR HANDS! It should begin to rotate in a circular motion. This is an excellent technique for developing will power.
Psi Wheel 2
First make a psi ball, when you feel it is good and strong enough put it on the psi wheel and program the psi ball to spin really fast, if done right the psi wheel should spin also.
Psi Wheel 3
First, start making a psi ball, then when you are making it, talk to your subconscious by talking in your mind and ask it for help with the psi ball. Now finish making the ball. After you have finished ask your subconscious again for help with making the psi wheel move. Now move your hands slowly towards the psi wheel and it should move. I use this tech to move a psi wheel, it works pretty well.
Psi Wheel 4
Calm down and focus on the psi wheel. Do whatever you need to calm yourself, maybe take some deep breaths or meditate or whatever works best for you. Now, visualize little lassos coming from your mind snagging the corner of the psi wheel and pulling it in the desired direction.
