Science and Cooking - great resources from Harvard

Science and Cooking is a collaborative program between Harvard scientists and some incredible chefs that I learned about on the Travel Channel last night.

Physicists at Harvard were research soft matter science and decided to create a course that combined science with cooking. Students learn concepts of science while cooking and coming up with some high-tech cooking resources (liked powdered olive oil and sausage flavored powder) that chef use in their restaurants.

The Science and Cooking class at Harvard is a general education course for Harvard undergraduates that is an overview of soft matter physics. Chefs demonstrate recipes that highlight each concept. Students conduct experiments with food and culinary science and present them at a fair at the end of the semester.

This is a great way to combine something everyone knows, cooking, with learning science. And, the students not only learn, but apply what they learn.

There is also a Public Lecture Series by world-class chefs and food experts that are related to the course, but not the content of the course. These lectures could be used by science and food teachers in their classroom as an excellent resource and a way to make science relevant to the students.

Tertullian Verus

50,678pages on
this wiki
Add New Page
Talk0 Share

Tertullian Verus is one of the brothers at Three Brothers Trade Goods in the Market District of the Imperial City.

Tertullian sells a wide variety of items, most notably the heavy armor helmet Helm of the Deep Delver. He has 1,000 GoldIcon to barter with. He is also a member of the Society of Concerned Merchants, along with Jensine of Jensine's "Good As New" Merchandise.

Daily routineEdit

While the name indicates that all three Verus brothers run the store, actually only Tertullian and Sergius provide the services. When they are not standing behind the counter together, they do their duties in shifts, making sure they both get a day off every now and then. They share a room in the private quarters above the store and sleep there every night between midnight and 6am.

After waking up, they always eat breakfast with Cicero for two hours in the main trading room. Tertullian works every day of the week except Tirdas and Turdas and when the clock strikes 8am, he opens up the store for potential customers and works a solid twelve hours until 8pm. After closing up, he accompanies Sergius and Cicero to The Feed Bag for dinner until his bedtime at midnight.

On Tirdas, he leaves the shop and heads to the Temple of the One for four hours of praying. After that, he heads to the Imperial City's popular Arboretum and strolls around there until his usual dinner time at 8pm. On Turdas, he skips the temple and spends the entire day at the Arboretum. Loredas evening sees him, Sergius, and fellow merchant Maro Rufus from The Best Defense, praying in the Temple of the One between 8pm and midnight. Sundas is Sergius' day off and Tertullian is alone in the store all day. After that, he accompanies Cicero to the Talos Plaza District district, where he wanders around until midnight.

His choice in clothing reflects his middle-class status: a russet felt outfit and matching shoes. He carries around the shop key, a spare pair of burgundy linens and fair amount of gold.

Unfriendly CompetitionEdit

A newly opened shop run by Thoronir is selling goods below cost, causing big problems for the other merchants. The Hero is directed to Jensine of Jensine's "Good As New" Merchandise by several merchants in the Imperial City Market District, including Ogier Georick of The Main Ingredient and Claudette Perrick of The Gilded Carafe.

Corruption Conference at New School

The Center for Public Scholarship is pleased to present the 30th Social Research conference, “Corruption,” on Thursday and Friday, November 21 and 22, 2013, at The New School in New York City.

Signs of corruption and the damage it causes are painfully evident in political and corporate life everywhere. Policy makers, historians, lawyers, and scholars will discuss the many systems undermined by corruption and the transparency and accountability protocols that could serve to reduce corruption, if not eliminate it.

Specifically, the conference will examine both U.S. and global aspects of the problem of corruption, including social and historical dimensions of corruption, the systems most at risk of corruption (governments, business, labor, and markets), and possibilities for reform.

Additional issues will be addressed in the publication of the Winter 2014 issue of Social Research, with case studies of corruption in Kenya, India, Russia, Latin America, and the United States.

sharing moment-KAFI-kursus asas fasi ideal..

Here, this entry I bring to you my experience how to become a facilitator..but not perfect..as we know nobody's perfect..but then we try our best as we can.
last week..I took part in KAFI program. This program is one of the PERKEPIS activities and has been organized by them. This activity has been organized in 3 days 2 nights. For your information, PERKEPIS is actually stand for 'Persatuan Kebajikan Pelajar Islam Sarawak.' This organization was established in 1997 under registration number 1016-05-15. For further info you just can go through their blog: http://perkepis.blogspot.com/
So, back to KAFI..again this program is very enjoyable and good for us especially those people or students still enjoy their holiday but nothing to do. Giving thanks to Allah..alhamdulillah..because of Allah..I can join this program and I appreciate very much what I have learned during this course. Thanks to PERKEPIS and those people were involved in this activity during that time. There are many things I have learned, one of them..how to handle people not only about my age..but different age,habits..attitudes..and so on. Beside that, I have learned about '3 S Doa HatiMU'this is belong to
5)husnuszhan (bersangka baik)
6)amal jama'ie (kerjasama)
9)muhasabah diri dan bermaafan
these 10 things we need to apply daily not only me but those people outside also.
Then, I'm also learned abot self management which include how to manage our self through time, feelings,emotional n physical. After that, I have learned abot VAK tools..these words represent V-visual, A-auditory. K-kinestatic.
I think that's all I can share with you..I hope there are a lot of people can join PERKEPIS activities especially for SARAWAkIAN. Sometimes we got pressure and falling down..or being involve in hard situation and so on until we cannot decide properly..so this kind of program is good for us and also me. It will remind us as a 'kalifah & hamba Allah' and think about the past or 'muhasabah diri'. keep in your mind, [Al-baqarah;286: oh no soul doth Allah place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets very good that it earns, And it suffers every ill that it earns.(pray)"Our Lord! Condemn us not If we forget or fall Into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou Didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! lay not us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins. And grant us forgiveness.Have mercy on us. Thou art our protector; Help us against those who stands against Faith."

Cookies, Smoke, & Chaos, oh my!

We had so much fun last night getting together with some friends of ours.  The ladies baked and decorated cookies and biscotti while the men babysat and played video games.  Super fun!  We were able to talk, eat yummy treats and bake treats to give to others.  It was great!

Now fast-forward to today just before lunch.  I was sitting at the kitchen table working on finishing and publishing my last video for the Cinch program.  I knew my little sweetheart was going to wake up any minute now so I wanted to get our lunch ready beforehand.  I grabbed our lunch and laid it by the oven that I had just turned on to preheat.  I sat back down and chatted with a few blogging friends of mine on Facebook as I waited on the oven.  It never beeped so I decided to go ahead and go upstairs to get her anyway.  To my surprise, when I stood up, I notice that the kitchen AND living room are both filled with smoke!  Loads of it.  I’m in a panicked state of confusion.  My mind raced to think of what we had for dinner last night to see if by chance anything could have spilled over.  I thought, “Chicken pot pie? No.  Lasagna? No.  We had spaghetti!  No that wouldn’t cause it.”  I noticed that the back burner was smoking every so slightly so I calmed myself down and reassured myself that it was only a dirty tea pot causing the burner to smoke.  I don’t know what I was thinking, the burner wasn’t even on!  I removed the teapot to examine it but I quickly learned that it wasn’t the culprit.  When I picked it up smoke began rushing out like a geyer.  I quickly put the tea pot back.  I stood there for a moment to muster up the courage to open up the oven and see what was inside.  What on earth could cause an empty oven to produce so much smoke and possibly fire!  Oh, no, what if it wasn’t empty?  A lost teddy bear, a dish rag, who knows at this point.  I quickly peer inside as a wave of smoke attacks my face.  I see a pan of something that resembled burnt cookies.  I quickly shut the oven and breathed a huge sigh of relief.  No fire, no precious dolly, just cookies.  No big deal.  I turned off the oven and went and opened a door.  As I walk past the smoke detector, which clearly doesn’t work I realized that I didn’t know what to do next.

I called my husband in a panic because I needed to get this smoke out fast.  What if one of the upstairs smoke detectors went off?  My emotionally sensitive dog would be a mess, much less my sweet toddler.  Panic ensued.  My husband didn’t answer and I shook my fist in the air.  How dare he be at work, probably at a Christmas party, while I’m here trying to save our house from burning down?   Yes, I was a little dramatic but my heart was racing and adrenaline was flowing.  {Come to find out that he was at the pharmacy picking up a prescription for me.  How sweet!  I should have called his cell phone!}  I got online and messaged those blogging friends I was talking with just a few minutes before.  I was too jittery to explain much.  My message was something along the lines of, “HELP! Cookies started burning in the oven. Not fire but smoke everywhere. Don’t know what to do. Take outside? Let smoke out slowly? Help!”  They took longer than 30 seconds to respond so I tried to think of someone else to call who wouldn’t humiliate me for not knowing what to do.  Finally, I thought, “My mom, of course!”  She answered when I called and so sweetly and calmly instructed me to open the windows and doors on the other side of the house to let the breeze go through.  Why didn’t I think of that?  Even though I just vacuumed yesterday dog hair tumbleweeds were blowing through the house and out the door.  That gave me confidence that the smoke was headed out too .  Not to mention, a new idea on how to get rid of dog hair!  It’s very windy here today and the Christmas tree was rocking with all of it’s beautiful glass ornaments.  I run to the other side of the room, hurdling Christmas presents that had been blown to the middle of the floor and removed the ornaments that were most important to me before heading back to the kitchen.

Coming in the kitchen I see that my friends have replied to me and instructed me to take the burnt cookies outside.  I once again stand in front of the oven gathering courage to open it’s door but this time I’m prepared with an oven mitt.  I grab the pan and make a mad rush for the door.  I set the hot pan on the porch to cool down out as I rush back to the other side of the house to try and help direct the smoke out.  I don’t know how much I helped swishing a dish towel in the air but I felt productive.

Burnt Cookies

Now the rooms are much more visible with hardly any smoke left in sight.  The UPS man drops off a present and in the process nearly gives me a heart attack.  I’m a very paranoid person and I don’t usually leave my front door open so seeing a big man there, even though he was waving, was startling.  I composed myself and re-accessed the smoke situation.  The house looks empty of smoke so I begin closing the windows and doors.  When I get to the back door I find my dog eating as many burned pieces of coconut cookies as she can before I take the pan away from her.  I don’t know how she even knew that those charred remains were once delicious cookies.  I laugh at her, begin to relax, brought the pan inside and went up to get my daughter.  I’m thinking that she’s probably bouncing off the walls at this point but when I went in I found her sleeping.  I stood and watched my little sweetie sleep for a minute while thanking God for her, our warm house, and for keeping us safe.  As I walked back downstairs to make myself a warm cup of tea, I thought, “Hey, this will make a great blog post.”  Now here I am, sharing my humiliating and comical day with you in hopes that it will make you smile.

About Ashley

Ashley is very happily married and the mother to a beautiful little girl, and she is the main voice behind Embracing Beauty.

  1. Happens to all of us! I went to pre-heat the oven once, and found a baby bottle in the broiler part UNDER the oven.

    • Thank you, Bobbie for your comment. It’s comforting to know that I’m not the only one who’s done something like this!!

  2. Shell Fruscione says:

    Not to laugh at your suffering, but that’s completely hilarious. I’m sure something similar will happen to me one day so it’s good to know what to do- and I was literally laughing out loud at your dog eating the cookies because that’s EXACTLY what my dog would do!

  3. I’ve done that before too. Except I left the cookies on one of those gift trays that catch on fire. It was all warped and melted with green stuff running down the stove.

  4. Sorry you had a scare but is nice that you can go back and laugh at it! Thanks for the giggle! I would never think a kid would put a toy in the oven but it makes perfect sense and now I know to check just in case! lol

  5. Awh, poor thing!!! I have been there so many times in so many avenues…and my mom is always my go-to!! You remind me a lot of her… you are a great mom too!!

Antique Furniture/Nicols & Stone Rocking chair

Nicol & Stone Rocking Chair
Nicol & Stone Rocking
We have a Old Rocking chair (nicols & stone) black,the owners left it when we bought the house.they were in their late 80's it all the furniture they said was his parents who owned the house before them..the label underneath is worn but could read that it was Nicols & Stone,on top said the Home of ----has a sheild type pic on it too, is this worth anything? thank you!

Hi Debbie,

Reading your note which claims this rocker to be older than the folks in their
eighties, having been owned by their parents!  Sorry, but I think someone is
having a senior moment which in theory making the rocker over 100 years old.

I would date the Nichols & Stone rocker to the 1950's.   If in doubt you could
always take it to a local antique shop for a second opinion.

As far as value is concerned, $125. to $150. is a current range.

Good Luck

Soviet Anti-tank gun

The anti-tank gun of the USSR, more precisely an anti-tank rifle, was an easily-portable weapon designed to defeat armored vehicles. In development since 1936 across several design offices, it finally entered the field in the autumn of 1941, and along with it a new soldier's specialty – the anti-tank rifleman. These specially trained experts planned their shots carefully to disable their prey as swiftly as possible. In battle, the rifle was handled by one soldier, assisted by another. The weapon they bore could penetrate an armor thickness of 35 to 40 millimeters, at a distance of up to 300 meters.
The most famous feat of the anti-tank riflemen would be that of the 316th Infantry Division (later known as the 8th Guards), in the defense of Moscow in 1941. Under the command of Major General Ivan Panfilov, a group of anti-tank riflemen (consisting of 28 men with 11 guns) were able to destroy 18 of the enemy's 54 heavily armored vehicles.

Error code, E26 shows up on the LCD display in front of the TeraStation, and then the replication hasn’t done.

Created 02/01/2011 08:11  |   Updated 07/04/2012 07:03

The data fails to replicate to the target TeraStation when the error code, E26, shows up on the LCD display.

The operation when file replication failure

  1. The TeraStation starts to replicate the data to the target TeraStation after 10 seconds again.
  2. If it fails the replication for the same files by 6 times, the error code and message, “E26 ReplicateFailure”on the LCD display.
  3. Failed file will skip to transfer, and then it starts to replicate next file to the target TeraStation.

Solution if file transfer failed.
Failed and skipped file won’t replication automatically again. Follow the procedure below.

  1. Navigate to [System] – [Backup] – [Replication] in the Web Admin interface of the TeraStation.
  2. Click [Resynchronize].
    The TeraStation will start to replicate and overwrite the data to the target TeraStation.

Troubleshooting if the error occurs after resynchronization.

  1. Confirm whether the replication source and target TeraStation can communicate each other.
    The error occurs if the TeraStation can’t detect the replication target TeraStation or it doesn’t reply over 60 seconds when file transferring.
  2. Do not set multiple Replication Targets for one Replication Source. Multiple transfer processes for Replications will run, and system performance will be adversely affected.
  3. Confirm the file and folder name on Replication Source.
    If the file and folder name on Target Source are included unsupported character, the error occurs when it replicates them to Replication Targets.

Tuesday, December 16, 2008

A bunch of us Ultraholics tend to "tag" each others blogs with a list of questions. Since we are nearing the end of 2008, I thought I'd get the game started. The questions I posed to each Ultraholic is listed below, along with my answers. I am tagging Rajeev Patel, Michael Kanning, Peter Lubbers, Chihping Fu, Clara and Lisa Bliss (even though she hasn't joined our Ultraholics group.....yet).

1. What was your 2008 running highlight and running low?
For me, my highlight had to be my Badwater 135 run. Keys 100 was a close second as it was my P.R. 100 and I was first male overall (small race so don't be impressed), but Badwater was just perfect. The challenge, my crew, the support, the race, the other runners, everything. Hands down, my lowest running moment in 2008 (and all years) was my first and only DNF ever at mile 80 of Rocky Raccoon 100 thanks to piriformis.

2. What race are you secretly planning on doing (or contemplating) for 2009 but haven't made it known to the public....until now.
For me, that would be the Barkley. I always saw that as a never-will-I-do-that event. But that was exactly the way I felt about Badwater. I am definitely going to try and enter that baby for 2009.

3. Where would you like create and direct an ultra that (to your knowledge) none exists?
My choice would probably be the Markleville Death Ride course. I have semi-joked that I would run this bike ride in 2009. The climbs, the scenery, the altitude and the miles (200km) all add up to a heck of a challenge and event.

4. What is your "primary" race for 2009?
I want to go back to Badwater and try to run it as fast and as hard as I can.

5. What is the most exciting thing about your upcoming race schedule?
Well, if I get into Barkley or Spartathlon or, of course, Badwater I would be stoked. But for me it is the fact my fiance Cori has stated that she will be doing her first ever ultra in 2009!!!!

6. List your planned races for 2009:
Me: H.U.R.T 100 (but because my injury slowed my training will probably give a waitlister a gift and instead do Rocky Raccoon 100); Old Pueblo 50; (here I would add Ruth Anderson 100km - but think I will be honeymooning in Italy at the time - sorry Raj); Keys 100; Badwater 135; Spartathlon; Vineman Triathlon; Cactus Rose 100; Fear & Loathing 100km; Sunmart 50.

OK - tag!!

Peter Lubbers said...

Thanks for the tag!

Hey, I think you're definitely on to something with the Markleeville "Death March"--sign me up!

Clara said...

Thanks Alan! :)

Hope you're doing well and Merry Xmas!

Newspaper headquarters attacked and stormed, Ultras deny involvement

Unknown assailants storm and attempt to torch the headquarters of Al-Watan newspaper; hardcore football fans deny responsibility amid rumours

Ahram Online, Saturday 9 Mar 2013
Views: 1042
Views: 1042

The Cairo headquarters of the privately owned Al-Watan newspaper were torched by unknown assailants early Saturday.

The newspaper's website said that at around 3am, about 40 people gathered in front of the newspaper's office in downtown Cairo, setting fire to the building's entrance and then storming and vandalising the paper's offices, causing "severe" property damage.

The website confirmed that there were no casualties in the attack and that the fire was quickly controlled by firefighters.

After the storming of the newspaper's offices, rumours circulated that the perpetrators belonged to the Ultras Ahlawy football fan group — that they attacked the newspaper for publishing a news story about the hardcore supporters meeting with the Muslim Brotherhood's second-in-command, Khairat El-Shater, ahead of a contentious verdict in the Port Said football disaster trial.

At least 74 Ultras members were killed 1 February 2012 in after-match violence in Port Said following a football game between Cairo's Al-Ahly club and local Al-Masry club.

Members of the Ultras, hundreds of which gathered in front of Al-Ahly club Saturday morning ahead of the verdict, denied to Ahram Online any relation to the storming of Al-Watan's offices.

Does legalized prostitution increase human trafficking?

Cho, Seo-Young, Dreher, Axel and Neumayer, Eric (2013) Does legalized prostitution increase human trafficking? World Development, 41 . pp. 67-82. ISSN 0305-750X

PDF - Accepted Version

This paper investigates the impact of legalized prostitution on human trafficking inflows. According to economic theory, there are two opposing effects of unknown magnitude. The scale effect of legalized prostitution leads to an expansion of the prostitution market, increasing human trafficking, while the substitution effect reduces demand for trafficked women as legal prostitutes are favored over trafficked ones. Our empirical analysis for a cross-section of up to 150 countries shows that the scale effect dominates the substitution effect. On average, countries where prostitution is legal experience larger reported human trafficking inflows.

Thunder Rides a Black Horse: Mescalero Apaches and the Mythic Present

Thunder's focus on the ways in which old myths and legends inform actions and beliefs on a contemporary Indian reservation in the American Southwest has established it as an ideal supplement for introductory classes in Native American studies, anthropology, cross-cultural religion, folklore, and discourse analysis. After nearly two-dozen printings in two editions and the garnering of hundreds of undergraduate classroom adoptions, the latest edition of Thunder includes valuable updates of reservation life and the author s fictive family members at Mescalero.

The compelling four-day and four-night Mescalero Apache girls puberty ceremonial remains the backdrop of Farrer s interpretive, introductory discussion of time and the mythic present. The oral traditions and instructions given to Farrer by the late Bernard Second, her longtime Apache teacher, provide insight into the importance of narrative not just in ceremonials but also in daily life.

Farrer neither romanticizes nor patronizes the Apachean people, who are presented as people with foibles as well as possessing much worthy of admiration. The Third Edition incorporates a fully developed concluding chapter Returning and furnishes thoughtful, end-of-chapter questions to prompt readers to explore their own reactions to the text.

Snyder, Gordon Taylor (1924–2005)

Gordon Snyder.
Saskatchewan Archives Board R-A8366

Born December 17, 1924, in Moose Jaw, Snyder was educated at the Moose Jaw Technical School. Snyder enlisted in the RCAF in 1942, serving in Canada. After discharge, he worked for the CPR as a fireman and was promoted to engineer in 1956. Active in the railroad unions, he served in a variety of posts in the Brotherhoods of Firemen and Locomotive Engineers. Snyder was involved in youth wing of the CCF. In 1960 he was elected to the Saskatchewan Legislature, replacing long-time CCF MLA and railroader Dempster Heming of Moose Jaw. Snyder was re-elected in 1964 and in 1967, when he was appointed critic of Health. Following the NDP victory in 1971, Snyder was appointed Minister of Labour, a post he held for eleven years until the government’s defeat. Snyder reversed much of the Thatcher government’s legislation, repealing the Emergency Services Act and removing barriers for the creation of trade unions. The province overhauled the scope of Labour Legislation; the first forty-hour work week was established in Canada; the Occupational Health and Safety board was strengthened; more stringent safely legislation was introduced; and the Workers’ Compensation Board was expanded. The Minimum Wage Board was re-established to develop a process of constant review of the minimum wage, tying it to a percentage of the average industrial wage. The minimum wage was the highest in Canada. The role of the Women’s Bureau, the forerunner of the Women’s Secretariat, was greatly expanded. In 1972 the province was the first in Canada to introduce legislation insuring equal pay for similar work. Snyder was defeated in 1982 and retired from public life. He died on December 10, 2005.

Title: Synthesis and characterisation of some novel lithium-containing solid electrolytes
Author: Robertson, Alastair D.
Awarding Body: University of Aberdeen
Current Institution: University of Aberdeen
Date of Award: 1993

A range of γ-LISICON type solid solutions of general formula Li_4-3xGa_xGeO_4 have been prepared which extend from compositions close to, but not including, Li_4GeO_4, up to Li_2.5Ga_0.5GeO_4 at high temperatures. Phase diagram studies, which included comprehensive studies of the join Li_4GeO_4-Li_2.5GeO_4 and the binary join Li_2GeO_3-LiGaO_2, were carried out. Lattice parameter data for the solid γ-solid solution are presented along with data for a new phase β-Li_2.5Ga_0.5GeO_4 and an ordered γ-phase, C-Li2.8Ga0.4GeO4. The structures of γ and β-Li2.5Ga0.5GeO4 are stoichiometric derivatives of γ and β-Li3PO4, as shown by using Rietveld refinement of X-ray powder diffraction data. Both phases show some Li / Ga disorder, which is unusual for stoichiometric compounds and the γ-phase may be regarded as 'entropy-stabilised'. A discussion of possible mechanisms for theβ↔γ transition is also given. These γ-LISICON solid solutions exhibit high lithium ion conductivity; the maximum conductivity was observed for the composition, Li_3.7Ga_0.1GeO_4. Conductivity Arrhenius plots are markedly non-linear and conductivity data depend on sample pre-treatment below ~260°C. The sub-solidus phase relations in the ternary system Li2O-TiO2-P2O5 were investigated to study the stoichiometry of LiTi2(PO4)3, which is a controversial lithium ion conducting material. One new ternary phase, LiTiPO5 and its arsenate analogue, LiTiAsO5 were synthesised and their structures determined by X-ray Rietveld refinements. These phases are isostructural with α-Fe_2PO_5. Conductivity studies showed these new materials to be insulators. Finally, a range of solid solutions between LiTi_2(PO_4)_3 and TiNb(PO_4)_3 have been prepared, which have the general formula: Li_1-xTi_2-xNb_x(POP_4)_3. A partial phase diagram study in the ternary system TiO_2-Nb_2O_5-P_2O_5 was carried out. Lattice parameter data for the solid solution Li_1-xTi_2-xNb_x(PO_4)_3 is presented. Conductivity results indicate that the materials are modest lithium ion conductors; maximum conductivity is observed for the composition x = 0.8.

Elizabethtown College ranks among the country’s highest value-added higher education institutions, according to a new study by the Brookings Metropolitan Policy Program.

Its report, “Beyond College Rankings: A Value-Added Approach to Assessing Two and Four-Year Schools,” assesses how well colleges affect student post-graduation economic success. Elizabethtown College graduates had mid-career earnings that were 27% higher than predicted. Elizabethtown graduate’s actual mid-career earning average of $86,500 was 27% higher than the predicted amount.

This value-added figure places Elizabethtown College at #6 out of Pennsylvania’s 153 other four-year institutions.

Elizabethtown College is ranked

of 153 other PA Colleges and Universities

on value added to mid-career earnings.

What Graduates Think

of our graduating seniors had at least one faculty member who made them excited about learning, compared to 63% nationally.

of our graduating seniors had a mentor who encouraged them to establish and pursue their goals, compared to 22% nationally.

of our graduates agree that their Elizabethtown College educational experiences prepared them with the skills to be successful in the workplace.

Graduation Rate

Elizabethtown College has a STRONG 4-year graduation rate. This saves families money and gets graduates out into the real world sooner than students who attend other PA schools where it may take 5 or 6 years to graduate.

Within the first-year after graduation the vast majority of students utilize their degree in either the workforce or in pursuit or a higher degree. Only about 1% of responses are still seeking employment. Our two-year survey shows that 98% agree they have the skills necessary to be successful in their career.

*Three year average of 2011, 2012, and 2013 graduates who were surveyed one year after graduation.

GAMES VS HANDOUTS - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more

Yesterday I explained how to reduce relative clauses into phrases to my 11 graders and they were all confused. Then I distributed the handouts I prepared for them to exercise and asked them to rewrite the sentences. While doing the exercises they were bored and they couldn’t get the idea.
Today I played a game with them and they were more confident in the end.
The game was one of my favourites, noughts and crosses, as I can adapt it to many grammar topic.

I wrote sentences on slips of papers and put them in an envelope. I divided my class into two teams and told them how to play the game. They had to choose a box from the grid all together as a team and one by one in turns, they had to take a slip of paper from the envelope and reduce the relative clause. I allowed them to look at their notes while waiting for their turn and in the end the victory was for all of us.
I gave them pos- it notes and asked them to write feedback. I also asked them to compare doing exercises and playing grammar games.
My students were happy with the game and they explained the pros and cons of playing games in classroom very well.
They said:

  1. We focused on the rules.
  2. We were more careful
  3. We tried to learn and remember the rules not to lose the game
  4. We saw our mistakes
  5. We wanted to win
  6. We remember better
  7. We practised the relative clauses
  8. We had fun.
  9. It was more enjoyable than writing on a handout
  10. We did something like competition and it makes you try harder

  1.  Losing a game is not good
  2.  I get so nervous when I play a game
  3. We could have practised more if I did them on handouts

In every classroom, you will find competitive students who will enjoy playing games and in every classroom you will have students who will become unhappy when s/he loses a game. But life is a game and we should learn how to play, how to survive, how to win and we should also learn how to overcome stress.

    What an excellent comparison, Eva. I’ve often found that with activities or games, students focus on the task rather than the language. They get better practice when they’re using the language (to play a game) rather than focusing on the language (to complete a worksheet).

    It helps when I keep the games short so we can play multiple times (and have more chances to win) and if sometimes students work together as a team to beat the clock or complete a task (so it isn’t always competitive).

    But, when students get better language practice because their enjoying an activity, then everyone wins 🙂

    It’s great to see that my students can also make great evaluations. I just wrote thier sentences here.

    Hi Eva

    I really enjoyed reading this post. I love this version of noughts and crosses. I have never played it in this way before, with slips of paper. I will note this in my special notebook of “things to try out”! Many thanks.

Domino’s Shames Women for Eating Salad, and We’re So Not OK With It

Choosing a healthy dinner is hard enough—the last thing you need is someone making you feel sh*tty about that decision. That’s exactly what happens in Domino’s latest commercial announcing its new salad menu. The pizza chain’s ad implies that people who opt for mixed greens over a slice (or two) are the worst. See for yourself:

We get the ad is supposed to be over the top, but it shouldn’t make people feel ashamed about eating greens. And we couldn’t help but notice women were the only ones ordering salads in the ad, sending the not-so-subtle sexist message that it’s just females who want or need to eat healthy. Domino’s should be advocating that a balanced life includes pizza and salad—the company want to sell you both, after all.

Time to Regulate E-Scooters

National Post columnist opines on the conflict between e-bikes and e-scooters/mopeds on Toronto bikeways.

Published: 02-Nov-2012

You’ve got to admit that two-wheeled electric-powered personal transport is immensely practical and great fun. It is also, however, an increasing source of inter-vehicular conflict, an expansion of the existing multi-faceted war among the tribes of urban transport. The existing battles are already fierce among the dominant automobile, the engine-revving motorcycle, the anarchic pedal bicycle and the far more numerous but vulnerable pedestrian. Now comes a powerful but erratic insurgent: e-scooters.

They climb curbs, are driven along sidewalks, barrel along bike lanes and cruise mid-road down city streets at 30 kilometers an hour. They are silent-engine intruders that are upsetting the general cease-fire conditions that currently prevail in Great Toronto Auto Bike and Pedestrian War of 2012.

The trouble with the e-scooter is that there is no place for it, no territory where it can legitimately settle and call home. Under existing Ontario regulation, it is not a motorcycle, and therefore does not require any insurance or a licence to operate, so long as its total engine power does not exceed 500 watts and top speed is limited to 32 kilometres an hour.

Piaggio offers a 3-wheeled hybrid-electric scooter.

Electric scooters can offer a good alternative for people who commute within 40 km of their workplace, article argues.

KLD Energy Technologies powered E-scooter concept.

KLD electric wheel motor can provide speeds up to 50 mph with 40% less power consumption.

Zeit-Eco is seeking $250,000 in funding from Kickstart

Box-shaped electric scooter is intended to fit in car trunk and has range of up to 25 miles at top speed of 15 mph.

CalStart Commemorates 20th Anniversary

CalStart is founded in 1992 in wake of then-pending wind down of the state's aerospace industry.

Published: 13-Dec-2012

News about electric powertrain vehicles, hybrids, charging stations, plug-in hybrids, and the alternative fuel vehicle industry at large is plentiful nowadays. The industry is burgeoning, but where, or rather when, was the industry conceived?

No single person, agency, or company can lay claim to birthing the green car revolution. But for the past 20 years infrequently heard of Calstart has been instrumental in advancing the notion of alternative fuel vehicles and related business from hopeful fantasy to a viable industry and an accepted aspect of many of today’s lifestyles.

Founded in 1992, Calstart was the brainchild of Dr. Leon Bell, an engineer that saw an opportunity to utilize the scientific minds of so many that were finding themselves idle following the then-pending wind down of the aerospace industry.

Jordan Studying Electric Transit in Cooperating with China's BYD

Jordan's Ministry of Environment, Onyx International Trade and Investment Company, an exclusive partner with BYD, sign MOU to promote use of electric vehicles in the country.

Published: 24-Jan-2013

SUITS Legal snarls dominate the music biz buzz these days. Four songwriters filed a lawsuit in a San Francisco court against Will Smith for copyright infringement, according to Launch. The scribes of Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five‘s ”Superrappin”’ allege that Smith used portions of their song without consent on his ”Willennium” album’s ”Will2K.” The writers also claim that the Fresh Prince ”omitted” their names and substituted Smith’s and Bobby Robinson‘s instead. Robinson, Treyball Music, and Sony Music Entertainment are also named in the suit. (Sony Music has not commented.)… Now that a court has ruled that the Rolling Stones improperly used bluesman Robert Johnson‘s tunes on two of their biggest albums — ”Let It Bleed” and ”Exile on Mainstreet” — under the assumption that the songs were in the public domain, the case will return to an L.A. court to decide if the tiny label Delta Haze is due compensation…. Members of Jefferson Airplane are suing cofounder Paul Kantner for allegedly using the band’s name without permission, reports Wall of Sound. Kantner and original Airplane singer Marty Balin have been performing gigs under the moniker Jefferson Airplane’s Volunteers in New York and California for the last three months.

SHOWDOWN Fourth of July weekend will mark an historic clash of marketing wills, with the openings of ”The Patriot” and ”The Perfect Storm.” Variety reports that this will be the first time two flicks with $100 mil-plus budgets and full-throttle hype have competed over a summer holiday weekend. (Mel Gibson’s ”Patriot,” which premieres tonight, will get a two-day head start.) Industry flacks are on the edge of their seats in the hopes that this weekend will end the offset the 6 percent drop in box office grosses compared to this month last year. Their poor kids might have to forgo that second swimming pool if the flicks don’t perform. (See EW.com’s article on the box office battle.)

STRIPTEASE Mick Jagger’s ex Jerry Hall is toning up to get her knickers down when she takes over for Kathleen Turner in a London production of ”The Graduate.” The Texan model says the Stones’ frontman has been helping her memorize her lines for the role of middle-aged seductress Mrs. Robinson. ”I’m planning to let it all hang out and really be in the moment,” says Hall, 44, who is engaged in thrice-weekly weight training.
