Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Living a Common-sense Life: Part 2. Be Careful Where You Go Digging Around. Naturally, in January I started out full of optimism that I would finally learn "money." I love how I used "brilliance" in that title, so sure I was of myself! Let me try to explain. Why this red T-shirt I "needed"? There is a lot of ego-feeding here. Why this expanding list of Spartan race "vacations"? Can you spell mid-life crisis? There are fears in here . . . Posted by Gale Martha.

Sunday, February 26, 2012. Elementary Trees and Forests Resources. I've recently been writing a unit of study for Alberta Grade 6 Trees and Forests, and came across a bunch of great resources that I thought I'd share with you. Hope you like them! The Footprint of the Canadian Forest Industry. Very good YouTube that illustrates the usefulness of forests from the perspective of the forestry industry. The Boreal Forest Is Where I Want To Be. A great forestry career option video, made near Slave Lake, Alberta.

Sunday, December 8, 2013. Dark Energy Part 14. The Universe Is Not Intuitive. I had a lot of trouble visualizing how the universe is evolving and even where we are within it. There are several online sources that tell us something like "It has taken 13.8 billion years for the radiation from the Big Bang to reach us here on Earth." That statement, though true, led me to think of us as out here away. Thermodynamically, we live inside this nearly perfect blackbody. An intelligent creature on some distant pl...

ScienceMan's Blog: Netflix Canada - Worthwhile for Science Education?
http://sciencemanspeaks.blogspot.com/2012/01/netflix-canada-worthwhile-for-science.html
Thursday, January 12, 2012. Netflix Canada - Worthwhile for Science Education? So I got another free trial of Netflix. In the mail the other day, and my instinct was to toss it into the garbage along with the junk mail. I already tried a month of Netflix a while ago, and was not impressed. I have friends in the U.S. who rave about the service, but Netflix in Canada leaves something to be desired. Or so I thought! Can Netflix be recommended for science education? Well, as was rightfully pointed out by one...
