A timeworn cliché holds that old dogs can’t learn new tricks. A different, inaccurate cliché states that cats can’t learn any tricks at all. Kittens and puppies, definitively, are most socializable and trainable when they are young. But this has led to debate among veterinarians. Young animals are most socializable when they have not yet received their full complement of puppy or kitten vaccines. Some veterinarians discourage early socialization. They worry that young pets attending ...

If you want a nice beach read (in November) that’s filled with light anecdotes, lots of “truthiness” and Wikipedia-based references, then I highly recommend Malcolm Gladwell’s new Outliers: The Story of Success. In it, you’ll learn such bold proclamations as: Talent takes practice (and lots of it) Success takes luck Success also takes access to social advantages Emotional intelligence (or, as Gladwell calls it, “practical intelligence”) is more important than IQ So if you wanted ...

Ayer me presenté puntual a la cita. Bueno, estaba allí cinco minutos antes para poder grabar un poco el ambiente de sábado de la plaza. No sé si es que paseo poco pero ayer me pareció que había demasiadas actividades juntas en un mismo lugar. Justo al lado del árbol donde iba a realizar la transacción había un taller de reparación de bicicletas, un stand de GreenPeace, un tiovivo y música en directo del festival ...

The kids have a behavior chart in their classrooms and each of them has a clip with their name on it. They “clip up” for good behavior and “clip down” when they get into trouble… Me: So, how was school today? Did you clip up? Son: No, I clipped down… But! But, Dad! Clipping down is good today. Me: Are you sure? I thought clipping down was bad. What did you do? Son: I forgot. ...

Azért gondoltam, hogy külön postba írom ezeket a játékokat, és az iFun -t, mert véleményem szerint merőben más dolgot képviselnek. Míg az iFun inkább otthon ill. családdal barátokkal, addig ezzel a 2 játékkal inkább a suli/munkahely/busz/vonat-on fogsz játszani. Első a Bike Or Die 2 Hmm, azért ugye nem csak nekem jutott először eszembe erről a játékról az ElastoMania! Ez a játék egy az egyben ugyan az, igaz az irányítása picit finomabb de, ha várunk 1 ...

오늘은 수학이 어떻게 민주사회를 만드는데 기여할 수 있는지에 대해 얘기해 볼까 합니다. 제대로 된 수학 교육이 어떻게 민주시민의 자질과 덕성을 키우는데 도움을 줄 수 있는지 말입니다. 저는 수학교육만이 이러한 역할을 수행할 수 있다고 말하지는 않겠습니다. 다른 학문을 통해서도 이러한 것이 가능할 것이라 생각하는데, 그러한 부분은 그 분야에 익숙한 분들에게 맡겨 두도록 하고 저는 수학의 이야기를 하도록 하겠습니다. 먼저 수학이라는 학문의 성격을 미리 조금 말해두는 것이 이야기를 풀어가는데 도움이 될 것 같습니다. 어느 분야나 비슷한 측면이 ...

Earlier this week The Blog Herald published an article about strange blogging habits. The article discusses writing out html rather than using the visual text editor, typing out full url’s rather than using shortcuts, and writing posts in a text editor rather than in the WordPress Write Post area. There is also a lengthy intro about a journalist who continued to use a typewriter even after the advent of word processing and laptops and had ...

In case you needed any more reason not to post personal information on Facebook comes two cautionary tales. The first story comes to us from the Lone Star state where backup center for the University of Texas Longhorns, Buck Burnette, was kicked off the team for posting a controversial status message on his Facebook. After Barack Obama was declared the victor in the race for President Burnette posted something along the lines of “Hunters get ...
