Excellent STEM website: Teachers Domain: WGBH PBS Boston & NOVAMore Related Discussions
652 Views
Hello Colleagues, The previous 2 STEM websites I mentioned "Siemens STEM Academy" and MIT.edu "SCRATCH" student-video-creation STEM website are both excellent, but as I mentioned they are "works-in-progress"... The website listed here now (which has recently been updated...) is by far one of the best STEM Portals on the internet: "Teachers Domain" -- Digital Media for the Classroom and Professional Development. Created by two of the Best PBS Units running!!! WGBH Boston (the PBS Boston Network Television Station) and NOVA (the foremost Science Television Program) "Teachers Domain" is an official "Pathways Portal to the National Science Digital Library" and has major funding by the National Science Foundation. They also just started a wonderful new NOVA "Spark" Educator STEM (email) Newsletter, which I just received in my email account. The current issue has a wonderful Graphic Interactive "Classroom-Ready" Learning Unit on the "Physics (Math & Science) of Snowflakes" Here is the direct link to it: http://www.teachersdomain.org/resource/lsps07.sci.phys.matter.snowflakes/ I am already a member of Teachers Domain (it is free to sign-up), So I have immediate access to it... You may have to join "Teachers Domain" first...I don't know the procedural rules... but do what you have to do to join "Teachers Domain"...it is one of the best most-practical Classroom New Media Resources running...and free... If you do get to the Snowflakes Unit (perfect timing for winter :-) there is an advanced Teachers Guide Text on the right side of the page: Background Essay, Discussion Questions, and Standards. But the Vocabulary is definitely advanced: "covalent bonding", "nucleation of crystals", "crystalline solids", "hexagonal prisms" etc. The better (for most classrooms) Unit Resource is the Blue Colored Graphic Interactive Media Box on the top left of the page: student and teacher friendly pictures that are much easier to learn from; you can view and/or download the 1.7MB file...this includes cool time-lapse photos of snow crystals actually growing/forming before your (close-up magnification :-) eyes!!! Now you're ready for Winter in STEM style... Allen

Sometimes when we think about the future, we focus on our eventual success as well. We may think about how good it will feel to succeed and what rewards we might get from completing a difficult task. What role do these positive fantasies play?
Research by Gabriele Oettingen and her colleagues has shown that thinking about the benefits of success can actually make you less likely to achieve your goals. They can reduce the amount of effort that you want to put into achieving your aims.
A nice demonstration of this effect comes from a paper by Heather Kappes, Eesha Sharma and Gabriele Oettingen published in the January, 2013 issue of the Journal of Consumer Psychology.

What Your Sunscreen Should—and Shouldn't—Have
First and foremost, open and summer meant sun. We all know we need some of it (sunshine enables a physique to catch vitamin D, that is essential for bone firmness and a clever defence system), nonetheless there's also a sun's not-so-healthy aspect: skin cancer. Since 1975, rates of melanoma—the deadliest kind of skin cancer—have tripled, reaching scarcely one-quarter of a population, according to a National Cancer Institute (NCI). Adolescents and immature adults have been quite tough hit, with a rate of a cancer among teenagers flourishing during a rate of dual percent per year between 1973 and 2009, according to one 2013 study. Using a tanning bed and as small as one bad sunburn can dramatically boost your lifetime risk.
Fortunately, a good sunscreen can help. (The best invulnerability opposite skin cancer, though, is still avoiding a sun, generally during a rise hours of 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) But for a times we do need or wish to be outside, how do we select a good sunscreen? The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has finished that charge easier with a just-released EWG's 2013 Guide to Sunscreens. Unlike a lot of other "best of" roundups, this list of top-rated sunscreens and associated products—it includes moisturizers, mouth balms, and makeup—not usually facilities products that work to strengthen we opposite some deleterious UV rays, nonetheless also a best of these products—the ones that have warranted a EWG's lowest ratings—that are also low in harmful chemicals.
One of a lines featured in 3 out of 4 of a EWG's categories is Ava Anderson NonToxic, a line of 122 personal caring products and cosmetics grown by 19-year-old Ava Anderson. When she launched in 2009 with her mom, Kim, then-15-year-old Ava wanted to emanate skincare that unequivocally worked, nonetheless though poisonous ingredients. Her inspiration? Mother and daughter had watched a news shred highlighting an EWG investigate of chemicals found in teenagers. "Every teen tested certain for each ingredient," says Ava. "We were both shocked," Kim remembers.
After saying a news report, Ava went to a internal drugstore and health food store reckoning that, as she says, "I could buy my approach out of this. But afterwards we started researching ingredients." Her investigate went on for a improved partial of a year; when she was done, she told her parents, "I'm not confident with what's available. we wish to start my possess line of nontoxic products."
Ava now hosts residence parties sponsored by her code to assistance people learn about toxins and to representation and buy healthy nontoxic products during reduced cost. Ava and Kim have also finished countless trips to Capitol Hill to teach legislators on a toxins in personal caring products, that are conjunction regulated nor sufficient tested for their health effects. "Most people, even Congresspeople, have no thought of a chemicals we are unprotected to and their risks to a health," Kim says. If it's passed, a Safe Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Act of 2013 will deliver these protections for a initial time.
If it's passed, a Safe Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Act of 2013 would assistance make transparent to consumers that damaging chemicals are in a products we use.
When it comes to selecting healthy sun-care products, it helps to have a bit of information about what's in these products so we can squeeze wisely. First, both normal sunscreen and other products with SPF enclose many of a same controversial chemicals found in other personal caring and cosmetic products, such as parabens (which are carcinogenic) and retinyl palmitate (which indeed increases sun sensitivity, nonetheless is used in many products). The active mixture in sunscreens are possibly minerals—principally titanium or zinc oxide—or chemicals like oxybenzone and oxtinoxate, that are endocrine (hormone) disruptors that "are poisonous to reproductive systems or meddle with normal development," EWG researchers found. Choosing products with a measure of dual or reduction on a EWG's Guide to Sunscreens will assistance we equivocate them. The reduce a series on a EWG's list, a reduction poisonous a product; all of Ava's products are rated by EWG as a "one," for nontoxic, and are accessible on her website.
It's critical to understand, too, that many sunscreen products simply don't do a job. The Food Drug Administration (FDA) has usually authorized a few of a many effective chemical mixture that are accessible in sunscreens in other countries, and a formulations used in a U.S. don't indeed shade skin-damaging UVA rays. Nevertheless, a FDA allows product manufacturers to marketplace their products with claims that they yield "broad spectrum" coverage—even nonetheless they do not enclose mixture that shade UVA deviation effectively. Simply put, American sunscreens are weaker.
Yet instead of avoiding a sun, people use them desiring they are protected. A high SPF series does not pledge protection. In fact, Ava warns that, "it might trick we into baking longer desiring we are safe, when we aren't." Also, aloft numbers aren't better: An SPF of 30 is as effective as a presumably aloft SPF if we reapply it as a tag suggests.
And for loyal UVA protection, aloft molecule-sized zinc oxide is a many effective sunscreen ingredient. Zinc oxide's ghost-white coming in sunscreen might make we demeanour like a lifeguard, nonetheless many products are now formulated so that they're a separator to a object though giving we that bleached look. Ava's line, and some other on EWG's new list, have it, while also omission damaging mixture that boost object sensitivity. While nothing of a products will strengthen we if we bake in a object during a hours of top UV radiation, they will assistance to minimize exposure. Sun deterrence stays a best protection.
If we wish to do some-more to safeguard that cosmetic and beauty products are improved studied, formulated, and regulated for safety, Ava and Kim advise going to a Campaign for Safer Cosmetics, as good as a EWG's site.
Here's how to find a product you're looking for on a EWG's new list of top-rated sunscreens and sun-protection products:
Beach and Sport Sunscreens (184 products accommodate a EWG's criteria)
Moisturizers with SPF (22 products accommodate a EWG's criteria)
Lip Balms with SPF (18 products accommodate a EWG's criteria)
Makeup with SPF (16 products accommodate a EWG's criteria)
What's your favorite sunscreen? What chemicals do we equivocate in personal care and cosmetic products?

Building A Business Case For Unified Communications
The hype surrounding any emerging technology often shrouds the private sector with mixed feelings, as decision-makers try to decipher whether new offerings will enhance operations, hinder productivity or introduce some bizarre mixture of the two.
Instant Cashflow Improvement and Rapid ROI with Unified Communications
The up-and-down economy of the past several years has highlighted the need to operate more effi ciently and cut costs wherever possible. In most situations, these two notions would seem contradictory, but a number of emerging technologies - cloud computing, virtualization and the bring-your-own-device movement among them - are helping companies accomplish these goals.
The Top Four Pitfalls of Unified Communications
Today's enterprise needs to be agile if decision-makers wish to remain competitive and relevant in the eyes of consumers. As more companies and customers around the world begin leveraging innovative devices like smartphones, tablets and next-generation laptops, the need to deploy unified communications grows alongside it. Neglecting to implement the technology may result in dire consequences that could spell the end of an organization.

text: Pussy Riot Arrested in Sochi, Claim Police Brutality Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart Sports 18 Feb 2014 post a comment Is Vladimir Putin's police Pussy Riots' oppressors or their press agents? Two members of the Russian punk-rock collective Pussy Riot claim that Russian secret police arrested them and roughed them up on Tuesday. The incident took place in Sochi, just a few miles from the Olympic games. "We have been arrested," Nadzehda Tolokonnikova tweeted, "accused of robbery." The charges stem from items alleged missing from a local hotel. Her band mate Maria Alekhina claimed, "In the investigator's office dragged up the stairs, all bruised. Let's apply to the Supreme Court." The pair spent nearly two years in prison on convictions of hooliganism inspired by religious hatred before their release shortly before Christmas. The punk rockers are in Sochi to film a music video for their song, "Putin Will Teach You to Love the Motherland," a phrase Alekhina repeated on Twitter in relation to her Tuesday arrest. Crime pays--in publicity, at least. Photo credit: Igor Mukhin

From the highly acclaimed author of The Book of Summers comes a tale of love, lies and innocence lost For Hadley Dunn, life has been predictable and uneventful. But that is before she spends her second year of college abroad in Lausanne, a glamorous Swiss city on the shores of Lake Geneva. Lausanne is imbued with the boundless sense of freedom Hadley has been seeking, and it is here she meets Kristina, a beautiful but mysterious Danish girl. The two bond quickly, but as the first snows of winter arrive, tragedy strikes. Driven by guilt and haunted by suspicion, Hadley resolves to find the truth about what really happened that night, and so begins a search that will consume her, the city she loves, and the lives of two very different men. Set against the backdrop of a uniquely captivating city, The Swiss Affair is an evocative portrayal of a journey of discovery and a compelling exploration of how our connections-with people, with places-make us who we are.

Stephen Curry said he has never heard his father, Dell, sound quite like he did on the phone Thursday night.
Hes not an emotional guy, Curry said after learning he had been voted a starter in next months All-Star Game. I could tell his voice was a little shaky. I could tell how proud he was.
This was a huge day in the career of Curry, the former Davidson and Charlotte Christian star who now plays point guard for the Golden State Warriors. In addition to the All-Star selection, he was named one of 28 candidates in the pool to play for USA Basketball in the World Cup and Olympics.
Curry called Thursdays announcements a surreal experience. He received more than a million votes from NBA fans, who select the starters. Seven reserves for each conference will later be selected by the leagues coaches.
Last year, when Curry hoped to be named a reserve, he received about 170,000 fan votes. What changed?
The playoffs were huge and (the Warriors) have the best fan base in the league, Curry said during a conference call with media. Once they got a winning product, they do what they do.
Curry attended various All-Star Games growing up when Dell the former Charlotte Hornets/now Charlotte Bobcats broadcaster participated in three-point contests. Stephen had also participated in the support events at All-Star Weekend the past few years, but this will be his first appearance in the game Feb. 16 in New Orleans.
Earlier in the day, during USA Basketballs conference call to discuss the player pool, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski acknowledged how badly he underestimated Currys potential out of high school
If I was smart I would have (coached) Stephen a long time ago, said Krzyzewski, who will again be mens Team USA coach.
Krzyzewskis regret he later coached younger brother Seth Curry, who transferred to Duke from Liberty is a common refrain among ACC coaches.
Curry said he first heard that from Marylands Gary Williams his freshman season at Davidson. He says he enjoys the compliment but doesnt begrudge anyone for the limited recruiting he received in high school.
He said his unorthodox path to this point not going to a major-college program, being critiqued entering the NBA draft, overcoming a series of ankle sprains made Thursdays validation all the more sweet.
The game has been good to me, Curry concluded. Im just enjoying the ride and trying not to look back.

Why Pay-Per-Click Tool Vendors Are Struggling On Facebook
Three years ago, you could drastically reduce your cost per click by just running a ton of ads. The mainstream pay-per-click vendors, experienced with Google, applied their same techniques to Facebook — multiplying tons of ad combos by headlines, images, and body copy. While that technique was positioned as smart optimization, it was really spamming the system with thousands and thousands of terrible ads. If a general message against a particular audience wasn't effective, making 10,000 variants of the same thing wouldn't matter.
Will Facebook's Revamped News Feed Kill Brands' Reach?

But there is always a "but."

Stay up-to-date with KAKE News:
TOPEKA, Kan- A spokesman for U.S. Senate challenger Milton Wolf has acknowledged he initially failed to pay Kansas income taxes in 2000, resulting in a state warrant before the bill was paid off.
Roberts' campaign raised the issue in a campaign mailer this week, just days before Tuesday's primary.
Wolf campaign spokesman Ben Hartman on Friday said Wolf failed to pay $2,135 in taxes because he was working for his uncle's medical products company in Texas, and it didn't withhold taxes after Wolf moved to Kansas.
A warrant to pay the bill was issued in 2002, and Hartman said Wolf and his wife took extra jobs to pay it off in 2003.
Hartman says attention to the case shows Roberts is desperate.
Roberts spokesman Leroy Towns said voters should know.

Handsome young autopilot reports for spaceplane duty
The Low Orbit Helium Assisted Navigator (LOHAN) team this morning welcomed aboard a handsome young autopilot for our Vulture 2 spaceplane - the hot-off-the-press 3D Robotics Pixhawk. 3DR kindly offered to donate a couple of Pixhawks to the cause, after ArduPilot fixed-wing lead developer Andrew Tridgell suggested we'd benefit …
Sometimes (and very rarely) the Christmas you get is actualy one you deserve.
This had better bloody work -- or fail spectacularly.
Do you have a remote operated small container of lighter fuel and
an igniter? If it's going a bit a bit meh at least it'll look good.
Weighty matters
With all those electronic gizmos installed the battery is going to have to be enormous. At this rate the rocket ship is going to nose dive straight into the ground after launch with all that weight in the front.
Re: Weighty matters
Actually, a few AAA Energiser Ultimate Lithiums is all it takes. Also, with the rocket motor loaded, it's not a front-heavy as it might appear.
Re: Weighty matters
Once the motor has fired it'll be a lot lighter at the back, no?
Re: Weighty matters
You might wanna look at 'fag' batteries Lester.
these newish small lipos are readily available now as they are used in the vapor fag things.
tons of different sizes, but for example a 14500 is AA sized. It can come with short circuit protection circuitry built in and has a capacity of around 800mah.
And since it's at 3.7v nominal will typically power arduino stuff, etc without the need for a booster. However even if you still use a booster - you get a lot more capacity that ultimate lithiums.
The other benefit is, being AA sized you can stick em in a regular AA battery holder - pair em up, etc.
Re: Re: Weighty matters
Yes. The design chaps factored that in - trust me ;-)
Re: Weighty matters
Any mileage in attaching four or six bicycle dynamos with propellors on to the wings instead of batteries?
What's in a name?
I hope that the autopilot will be called George :-)
Re: What's in a name?
Boffin-Improvised Goggled Gladiator, Lead aErialist Scout.
Surely, someone can improve upon that.
> Surely, someone can improve upon that.
Yes, I would have thought so ;)
Trust you got the 3dr OST module as well. Video no good with out screen altitude, speed etc.
The vid's from a Picam, rather than an autopilot OST rig. Dave Akerman is working to inteconnect the Pi and the Pixhawk, but I don't currently know how we'll be handling the video.
old school
Well, one way to handle direct video link would be to leave that old school analogue.
a 5.8ghz 600mw transmitter with a helical antenna facing directly down should be good for over 20 miles range straight down at least. And they only cost about 50 quid.
20 quid receiver (use another helical here for even great range or a cloverleaf) and a screen and you can watch in real time.
Re: old school
On 5.8ghz, you'll be lucky to get 3-4km even with clear LoS, even with a 13dbi at the rx end. Yes, you'd get 20mile range if you're 5km up due to lack of atmosphere, but while one end of the link is at sea level, your range is very small on 5.8.
Better with a 900mhz or 1.2/1.3ghz rig, but the antenna shape will destroy all advances made by the clever airframe design.
Re: Re: old school
Indeed. We're limited to what we can mount in the aircraft.
Today, low earth orbit
Tomorrow, The Moon!
Re: Today, low earth orbit
"Today, low earth orbit"
Maybe should be: Some time in the next 5 years, Lohan launches?
new space pilot
Did the reg remember to ask him whose shirts he wears? Or does he wears capes instead?
I have been following LOHAN since inception and what the project has told me is that it is extremely complex getting a craft to the hights required. It further strikes me that given the high degree of complexity and planning required for this project, how bloody nearly impossible it is to design and build a rocket system to deliver a capsule to ISS.
I appreciate that LOHAN is restricted by resources availability and it's really great to see how having a limited budget forces those involved to come up with far sighted ideas. But, it just makes me even more amazed that Space-X etc. can do what they do.
Re: Complexity
Complexity isn't the issue, it's complexity on a budget. Any fool with a few billion to spare can get a complicated thing like a delivery capsule built, they just need to employ lots of smart people to build and test custom parts. Trying to do the same thing with off-the-shelf bits and a couple of amateurs is a whole other level of complexity.
Personally I'm interested in seeing if a NavSparc board (a GPS receiver with programable IO like an Arduino and costing only $20) is going to change the economics of autopilots significantly.
Sheds and budgets
Speaking of budgets, at some point I'd love to see a list of everything that went into designing and building LOHAN and what it would have cost if you'd bought it all off the shelf. You've slowly accumulated rather a lot of in-kind support from some very nice suppliers over the life of this project, which is great, but not duplicable by the average shed tinkerer..
Re: Sheds and budgets
It's a fair point, but actually the biggest benefit in terms of budget has been the team members' voluntary labour. Without that, I dread to think how much the project would cost. More than we can afford, for sure.
If I'd had kit like this when I was a spotty one 30 years ago flying model planes, maybe I'd be working for SpaceX now...
... surely this autopilot isn't inflatable?
No, and don't call me Shirley!

NEW YORK (AP) - ABC says it is adding 14 new shows to its lineup next season, including a spinoff of its fairytale drama, "Once Upon a Time," and an action-adventure series drawn from the Marvel Comics world.
The network also said it's going to combine the two nights of "Dancing With the Stars" into one next season, airing a two-hour episode on Monday nights.
ABC joined other broadcast networks in presenting their 2013-2014 schedules to advertisers in New York.
"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," from hit-maker Joss Whedon, features Clark Gregg reprinting his role as Agent Coulson from Marvel's feature films.
Other new shows the network is adding to its schedule next season include "Super Fun Night," written by and starring "Bridesmaids" actress Rebel Wilson, and a Texas Rangers drama called "Killer Women."

Photos and Description of this holiday home in Chipping Norton - The Pavilion
A studio style property accommodating 2 guests.
The Pavilion is in the front row of the stalls of the Cotswolds, with unrivalled views of the beautiful rolling countryside. Full-length French windows running the length of the property afford an 180 degree panorama of farmland and woods stretching five miles in every direction. The bucolic setting is second to none: although on the edge of a quintessential Cotswold village, here you will feel at one with nature, away from it all.
Built in the 1990s in a style reminiscent of the colonial era, the Pavilion was until recently a writer's retreat. The interior has been refurbished to the highest standard by designer Susie Stocks, whose restful palette complements the landscape beyond. There is a veranda along its southern side, with a private decked area and lawn one end, and a patio the other. The fields beyond are Footpath Central where it is not unusual to happen upon deer.
Within ten minutes' drive are a host of top quality pubs, including The Feathered Nest in Westcote, The Plough in Kingham and the King's Head in Bledington. Stow-on-the-Wold, Daylesford Farm Shop, Burford (with its famous Wildlife Park) and Bourton-on-the-Water are all within five miles. Oxford and Stratford Upon Avon are half an hour's drive away. Kingham station (90 minutes from Paddington) is two miles away.
Places to visit within the area include:
Hidcote Manor Garden, Hidcote, near Chipping Campden
Snowshill Manor, Snowshill, near Broadway
Chedworth Roman Villa, Yanworth, near Northleach
Kelmscott Manor, Kelmscott, near Lechlade
Broadway Tower, Broadway

I'd give this an 8 out of 10. Definitely worth seeing if you want to see something funny. Nothing negative about this play except for maybe one actor, who didn't perform all that bad but could have been better.

Beau Jest was the best comedy ever. All people will relate to this hillariously funny show. The acting was fantastic. If you miss this event you will be sorry!!! It's the best performance ever!!!

Visit playwright James Sherman's website.
Beau Jest, the hilarious romp from playwright James Sherman, will have its Los Angeles revival at the Glendale Centre Theatre (GCT).
This heartwarming story about a beautiful young school teacher from Chicago, begs the question: How far will you go to satisfy your parents? Convinced that her parents won't approve of her gentile boyfriend, an eager-to-please daughter hires an actor to play the man of her mother's dreams (not just a doctor; a surgeon!) until she can work up the nerve to tell them the truth. But when her parents fall in love with her new beau, can she remember not to do the same?
Imagine My Big Fat Greek Wedding meets The Wedding Date with a little Fiddler on the Roof thrown in for good measure, and you've got a delightful family comedy which not only ran for nearly three years Off-Broadway at the Lamb's Theatre in New York City, but became a successful motion picture in 2008 starring Lainie Kazan.
Directed by Martin Lang, the upcoming Glendale Centre Theatre production stars Alison Robertson as daughter Sarah Goldman, Mario Di Gregorio and Elaine Rose as her parents Abe and Miriam Goldman, Danny Michaels as brother Joel, Shawn Cahill as her gentile boyfriend Chris Cringle, and Kelly Flynn as the actor hired to impersonate her fabricated Jewish boyfriend Bob Schroeder.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (February 2013)
The macroscopic scale is the length scale on which objects or phenomena are large enough to be visible practically with the naked eye, without magnifying devices.[1]
When applied to physical phenomena and bodies, the macroscopic scale describes things as a person can directly perceive them, without the aid of magnifying devices. This is in contrast to observations (microscopy) or theories (microphysics, statistical physics) of objects of geometric lengths smaller than perhaps some hundreds of micrometers.
A macroscopic view of a ball is just that: a ball. A microscopic view could reveal a thick round skin seemingly composed entirely of puckered cracks and fissures (as viewed through a microscope) or, further down in scale, a collection of molecules in a roughly spherical shape.
Classical mechanics may describe the interactions of the above mentioned ball. It can be considered a mainly macroscopic theory. On the much smaller scale of atoms and molecules, classical mechanics may not apply, and the interactions of particles is then described by quantum mechanics. As another example, near the absolute minimum of temperature, the Bose–Einstein condensate exhibits elementary quantum effects on macroscopic scale.
The term "megascopic" is a synonym. No word exists that specifically refers to features commonly portrayed at reduced scales for better understanding, such as geographic areas or astronomical objects. "Macroscopic" may also refer to a "larger view", namely a view available only from a large perspective. A macroscopic position could be considered the "big picture".

Thank you, Del Taco, for putting salt on our fries for us. Thank you, Del Taco, for crinkle-cutting our fries. If only everybody realized how simply spuds can be elevated to heavenly, unforgettable status: a few mere shakes of sodium chloride, a perfect-every-time browning technique (something that we think is helped by the fries' zigzag shape, though we have no scientific data to back that up). Del Taco fries possess more bite and pizzazz than any potato (fast-food or high-end) has a right to; ketchup is rendered unnecessary and a total afterthought. Even completely blotto at 3 a.m., we can taste the difference of Del Taco fries.

We are now in Terengganu, Malaysia. We have been here for about three days. On our first day, we went up close to the 'Floating Mosque', as it is called in Mom's guide book, but Dad denied Jana her request to dinghy beneath it. I love the metal trees and two meter tall plastic flowers. We haven't gotten close enough to examine them, but they were something I've never seen.
Yesterday, we went to what we expected to be a mosque museum, but turned out to be an amusement park called the 'Edutainment Park', and an odd one, I think.[1]
First, we lined up (though it wasn't much of a line; we were the only ones there), and the woman behind the desk gave us our 'passports'.[2] Then, we were immediately ushered next to a wall, which Jana stood on as instructed by the 'photographer'.
Afterwards, we were free to roam as we wished in a world with buggies, tour trains (of which Mom took plenty photographs of her own, patriotic flags and all), and mini-mosques, models of mosques from all over the world. Dad stood in front of every mini-mosque, and Mom took pictures of him.
On one African mosque, Dad was posing with his hand on the wall, and when he removed it, he took with him a chunk of the wall, with an accompanying "Oops". We have a photograph of him looking saddened, holding the wall of the African mosque in his hand.
Jana put it back, saying, "There! See? I fixed it!"
As soon as she let go, it fell to the ground. Dad perched it precariously on the rest of the wall, no doubt fearing he may get caught, before then exiting that mosque's area, trudging his way through the garden.
During our journey through the mosque park, Jana had to stop at a bathroom. We sat on a bench outside and waited for her. When she emerged, she requested my hand-sanitizer. I gave it to her, but then we had to wait again, because, of course, she had to then go back to the bathroom and rinse her hands, the clean girl she is.
"She should be a raccoon," Dad said.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because they always clean themselves."
"No," I said. "Raccoons also rummage through garbage. She wouldn't last a day; she'd sooner starve than look through trash for food."
"You're probably right," he said.
[1] I would be an awfully poor judge, for it is the only amusement park I remember going to. I think I went to Disney World as an infant, but that doesn't count as experience.
[2] Dad lost his along the way, but fortunately he wasn't denied the freedom to leave the 'country'.
