text: 5 Outstandingflyboi92 | 14/04/2012 | See all flyboi92's reviews (22)I was a big fan of the old ssx games on the ps2 and all i can say is how well this game has been made so that older fans of the series can recognise it as it used to be but for newer fans the amount of depth that the game goes into is amazing.You earn credits for competing in races etc that you can use to buy equipment such as outfits and boards, however so players can't just get the best items straight away the items are limited to each character and the items you are shown are only shown four at a time and are completely random ( for example one time you could see a rare but costly board whereas after finishing a race and starting a new one totally different boards are available to buy).A new game mode has been introduced instead of a standard online race where players pay credits to compete in races such as trick races, race races and survival races. the aim is to complete the objective (fastest time, highest trick score etc) in the highest bracket you can (from bronze to diamond). the better you do, the better bracket you fall into, therefore meaning the more you get paid. there is sooo much more depth that in this short review i cannot go into much detail about such as mods that you can purchase to give your character a boost in speed tricks or boost etc for one race only, and other equipment such as oxygen tanks, ice picks etc etc, but all i can say is buy the game, if your a fan of the ssx series or you like what im saying about it in the review then get it as i cannot recommend it more, easily one of my favourite xbox 360 games and i had the console for around 3 years.The insane way ssx used to be has stuck here aswel which i'm really glad about, but the new features really stand out and make it even better than it used to be. Geotags which are tags that players can earn in game or purchase let players lay down tags on tracks that other players can see and try and take to earn credits, however the longer your geotag stays without being captured, the more credits you get. you can have geotags staying on maps for days, even weeks before a player manages to find it and capture it in race. Additions like this and the extra detail to character customisation and character levels which they earn through xp makes this game a must have for ssx fans, snowboard game fans and competitive gamers alike.

Making creative fall-themed meals or Halloween snacks with Hormel Foods doesn't have to be frightening; In fact, you can be a Halloween hero with the collection of easy and creative Halloween recipes from Hormel Foods.
We celebrate Halloween all month long at my house. It's one of my favorite occasions and I like to make the most of it. One snack that I recently created with my children was the Mr. Crab recipe. Not only is it festive for Halloween, it also incorporates vegetables in a fun way.
The kids ate the heck out of these snack sandwiches. I thought they were fitting for Halloween and fulfilling as well.

I love this walker. There is almost no assembly required: insert the handles into the walker, tighten the bolt and you're done. This is one sturdy product, well made. I am a big man and I never worry it might collapse under my weight when I need to use the seat. The seat is very comfortable. Its width means that it can't fit through my bedroom's door, but that's ionly a minor irritant. Also, the metallic red paint job is absolutely gorgeous. The wheels are large. They roll very well and can withstand my weight when I am sitting on it. The brakes work well, too.
I bought this for my daughter who has health issues and needed a heavy-duty walker with a seat to accommodate her weight. I tried sitting on it and I was amazed that it is really comfortable as well as very sturdy. FYI - it is a lot bigger and heavier than a regular walker, but it has to be in order to hold up to 500 lbs. I would highly recommend this for anyone who needs this type of walker.
I am 300+ and the walker handles my weight with no problems. A little hard to transport in a small car.
This walker works well in places where there is plenty of room- outside and in large stores with wide aisles but can be a problem going through narrow doors and getting into places with narrow steps since the weight is about 30 pounds. The best thing is that you can sit and rest when your tired and you don't have to worry about being too heavy for the frame unless you weigh more than 500 pounds.
I bought this walker for my parents to use. My dad is a big guy and he can sit on this walker comfortably and without feeling like it is going to fall apart. This walker is a great purchase.
I am so pleased with this rollator. The quality is excellent, the size is perfect. it is light weight yet very durable. Very little assembly was needed and no tools were required to assemble it.
Well made, sturdy, and a large seat. It will stand up for years. One down fall, it is heavy to lift into the car. It is worth every penny I paid for it.
Excellent product. Sturdy,easy to put together,safe to use,price was right. Drive made a sound product. I ordered larger model because I am a big person. It 's seat is wide and comfortable and would hold 500 pounds as advertised if needed. The basket is a plus! I use it for many tasks. Caution it is wide so does not fit in all doorways but with practice it can be most useful and safe.Love it!
This is a very sturdy walker, nice sturdy wheels. This is my second walker and is so, so much better then my first one, I am not sure the name of my first one, but I will def. stick with a Driver Walker, fantastic price also, was cheaper then my first one I had. If you need a wheeled walker I would so recommend this one, don't waste your time looking any further.
i had a problem with the first unit i got but when i called them they told me they will send a replacment right away. one week later it was here.I have no bad results with this unit. perfect.

fits nicely I like it and will order another if it comes in beige or taupe. July 17, 2013
This bra has no padding. For a sports bra I expected it to be soft, slightly padded and comfortable. This bra did not meet any of my expectations. Instead it looked like something from the early 1900's. It has no business being classified as a sports bra. May 7, 2013

- Artificial selection (1) (remove)
- Evolutionary and proximate constraints on egg size in butterflies (2007)
- Arthropod egg and thus progeny size is an evolutionary and ecologically significant trait, showing tremendous variation within and across species. The high variation found is caused by a complex set of interacting proximate and evolutionary factors, but despite increasing effort this network is still only partially resolved. Using butterflies as model organisms, this study focuses on two main factors that are assumed to strongly shape variation in offspring size and number: maternal size and maternal nutrition. Both are assumed to affect reproductive traits and thereby maternal and offspring fitness. Phenotypic correlations between maternal size and egg size within various butterfly species as well as a two-trait selection experiment on simultaneous changes in both traits in the butterfly Bicyclus anynana clearly demonstrated that the importance of maternal size in shaping variation in egg size is limited, both in sense of a morphological as well as an evolutionary constraint. These results strongly contrast to the general assumption of a positive scaling relationship between both traits. This is one of the few studies addressing the issue of evolutionary constraints directly, employing artificial two-trait selection which has been proven to be a powerful tool to unravel genetic variances and covariances that underlie the evolution of traits. While the importance of maternal size in shaping variation in egg size is limited, proximate factors including larval and adult crowding as well as the quantity and quality of available food during the larval and adult stage affect variation in reproductive traits to a high degree. In the butterfly B. anynana, larval and adult densities had surprisingly little effects on female reproduction, whereas dietary limitations yielded strong responses in female reproductive output. Larval food stress reduced fecundity and reproductive investment (mediated through a reduction in body size), but effects on egg size were overall marginal. Additional negative effects of adult food stress on fecundity were largely confined to females being fed as larvae ad libitum, while those being previously starved showed reduced performance regardless of adult income. When abundantly fed during the larval stage, a limitation of adult resources reduced reproductive output, proving the need for adult feeding in B. anynana for egg production. Thus, restricted food access in different developmental stages of B. anynana sets different limits to reproduction, either posed by shortage of larval-derived storage reserves (i.e. nitrogenous compounds) or adult income (i.e. carbohydrates). Consequently, restrictions in both, larval- and adult-derived resources, limit reproduction in B. anynana. Further, this study deals with questions regarding effects of different adult dietary compounds for a fruit-feeding butterfly being novel in its reductionist approach and in the breadth of different nutrient classes considered. This study demonstrates that B. anynana relies to a large extent on adult feeding in order to realise full reproductive output. Female B. anynana require adult-derived carbohydrates for egg production and exhibit a tremendous gain in reproductive output when fed on fruit as compared to sucrose solutions. Contrary to initial expectations, I could not pinpoint a single pivotal substance (in addition to sucrose) that was able to elicit a comparably high reproductive performance as banana, although I tested the micronutrients being most abundantly available in banana (minerals: potassium and magnesium chloride; a mixture of vitamins and a combination of both) and all major substances known to be involved in insect egg production (amino acids, cholesterol, polyunsaturated fatty acids). Further, it is also excluded that the growth of microorganisms and fungi (associated with the production of fermentative products like organic acids and alcohols, thereby providing access to additional resources) explains the found results. In conclusion, reproduction does not only depend on a small number of adult-derived nutrients, but on a larger number having relatively small effects each. Thus, resource congruence (the use of nutrient types in a specified ratio) rather than any specific component may be the key to answer the question.

Floor lamps are a stylish way to accent a rooms lighting. They can add a vertical emphasis to a room and like table lamps, are decorative and available in many styles. A torchiere is a floor lamp that directs all light upwards.
" Floor lamps can balance brightness in a room and complement the lighting from other luminaries."
A common lighting mistake is to illuminate a large room or space with one ceiling light fixture. This normally creates unbalanced lighting in the room where there is over illumination and glare close to the light and as you go further from the light the room gets very dark. You can avoid this problem by supplementing light with the help of other sources of light like recessed cans, lamps, track lighting, and most easily with torchiere floor lamps. Floor lamps can balance brightness in a room and complement the lighting from other luminaries.
As always, please remember that if you have any questions regarding floor lamps and torchiere floor lamps, the Louie Lighting team of lighting professionals is here to serve you, just call or email us anytime.
Louie Lighting is your greatest source of professional lighting service for Floor lamps and torchiere floor lamps in many types, styles and brands.

This is an automatic, non-retractable eye pencil whose creamy texture makes for slick, smooth application. It would be great if the creaminess dissipated to a soft powder finish, but it doesn't. As a result, this pencil is prone to fading and smears with little provocation. By the way, the minerals this pencil contains are standard cosmetic pigments used throughout the industry.
Pürminerals was founded by former long-term Clinique employee Joli Baker, a woman who rose through the ranks at Lauder and one day decided she wanted to start her own business. Nothing new with that idea, or with what she believed was a breakthrough concept, namely mineral makeup. Of course, Baker was hardly the first cosmetics entrepreneur to promote this type of makeup, but since when did that ever stop anyone?
Pürminerals has been on the beauty scene since 2003 when they launched their first product, a pressed mineral makeup with sunscreen. This pressed-powder foundation is still sold today and represents one of the few strong points of a line that, overall, is a mixed bag with far more negatives than positives.
In terms of success, a coup for the company was introducing their products on Canada's The Shopping Channel, which led to the brand being picked up by Ulta, which now stocks Pürminerals in most of its 250 locations. The brand also is sold in select Dillard's department stores in the United States and is available in Australia and Japan too.
Despite the company's impressive track record for sales, let me say (actually we want to climb up on my roof and scream it) that the concept of mineral makeup is marketing hype, nothing more. It is absolutely astounding to me how many consumers have been hoodwinked by this "new" category of makeup. The ingredients in almost all mineral makeups have been standard to the cosmetics industry for years. In the case of Pürminerals, the main minerals are mica, titanium dioxide, and bismuth oxychloride. We discuss each of these ingredients in detail in our online Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary. Suffice it to say, none of these ingredients are unique: mica just makes powder shiny, titanium dioxide is known for its ability as a sunscreen along with adding color and opacity to makeup, and bismuth oxychloride is about as natural as polyester—none of that is revolutionary, better for skin, or in this case, a beauty breakthrough.
Of course, as Pürminerals enjoyed continued success the line's selection of products expanded. What began as five items has grown into a full-fledged collection of skin-care and makeup products. The expansion was likely a no-brainer for Baker, and we're all for offering women choices as long as what you're offering is actually good. That's where Pürminerals falls short, and in some cases, drastically so.
Pürminerals chose the pure and natural angle, and as a result, most of the skin-care products ignore what is important for skin, throwing in just about everything that grows in the ground whether or not the research says it is helpful for skin. Pürminerals makes significant use of irritating fragrant oils and problematic plant extracts. Bottom line: Not every natural ingredient is good for your skin. This line could have launched some brilliant skin-care products by including only helpful plant ingredients along with beneficial synthetic ingredients (after all, their products contain plenty of synthetic ingredients), but they opted to go the fragrant route, which is to your skin's detriment.
Makeup is the most exciting aspect of this line, but even then only a handful of products are extraordinary enough to deserve a look. The original pressed-powder foundation with sunscreen is a high point, as are the powder blushes, eyeshadows, and lip gloss. If you have very oily or dry skin or you simply don't care for powder foundations, you're out of luck, because that's all Pürminerals offers. Without question, it isn't the perfect foundation for all skin types or all ages as the company claims, but it certainly has its appeal and is among the better mineral foundations available.

The only positive about Hunter going down is that James actually has a chance. May not be a lot, but I want to see what he can do. If Hunter stays healthy throughout the year, we most likely never see James at all. At least, what I was thinking. Somewhat interesting.

the only one i know of that i had looked in to but they didnt have anything in my area, was West At Home. but if you are looking at getting scrapping stuff join some CTs that's how i started out
Christina's right! I do Opinion Outpost and Pinecone Research. Pinecone pays $3 per survey for which you qualify. OO pays a different amount BUT you have to do the pre-qualifying questions and then the survey... and if they don't like your answers (for instance, you enter your age and they already have a response from someone that age) then they'll kick you off the survey. I spent 20 minutes answering questions for a survey and they kicked me off when I answered what state I lived in. WTF?! So I didn't get any money. Grr. And that's happened more than once, so I only do those surveys when I have a big chunk of time. Which is never. LOL!

Siggy created with GS's Dia de los Muertos Monthly Mix
I've signed up for the survey sites mentioned. Nice to know that there are a few legit ones out there.
I'm a medical transcriptionist and I work at home. However, you have to get trained and certified, so not for everyone. But, if you like the medical field, it could work for you
I at one time also was going to start with West at Home, this was before I found my transcription job. I trained and everything, but I just couldn't do it - basically you had to call and bug people, lol. At least that is what they were going to put me on.
If you are looking for extra spending cash (and not a full-time job to pay the bills), definitely do the surveys people listed. Also, someone mentioned mturk ~ I've made quite a bit from them in short periods of time. https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome ~ If you can transcribe, you can make even more! I also love love LOVE Swagbucks for searching. http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/djbartch ~ I just made Swagbucks my default search engine (I use chrome, so when ever I type search terms into my address bar it searches using swagbucks). You randomly win bucks and you can save up to buy gift cards (Paypal included!). I earn about $5 worth a month. Just by searching for things I'd be searching for anyways! The search is not quite as good as Google, but it for most things it works fine. If I'm doing some big time searching, than I'll switch over to Google. (There are other ways to earn swagbucks as well -- surveys, games, polls, etc)
I know this is superduper old, but does anyone want to try to sign up with Pinecone Research?
I got an email from them this morning calling for referrals because they are recruiting!
They don't recruit often and Pinecone is my favorite online survey company.
If anyone wants to sign up, PM me your email address and I'll forward you the email.

Buying wholesale solar charges is a great way to save energy as you can charge anything with batteries through renewable energy rather then electricity. Any digital item can use a solar charger and to get the best price you can purchase them wholesale in bulk. Unlike electricity solar energy is free and as long as the sun is shining you will get maximum power. Solar charges work even during cloudy days though it will take longer to charge.
Solar chargers can be used to power up your digital camera, batteries, PDA, cell phones, iPods, outside lighting and much more. Solar chargers are particularly useful for night time lighting as they will charge during the day and be at maximum power for night time use. Outdoor solar chargers are perfect for pools and patios.
While you can get a solar charger at almost any electronics store you may need to find special retailers for wholesale prices. Wholesale allows you to buy in bulk and save considerably on cost. Basically the only cost involved with using solar energy is the equipment cost as you will save considerably on your electric bill.
Solar power may not be the most efficient renewable energy but it is the most abundant. Solar power directly converts solar energy into electricity using photovoltaic. The mains costs of solar power are the start up costs, or in this case the cost of purchasing the solar chargers. However new technology has dropped the cost of collar cells significantly.
The main parts of the solar cell are the photovoltaic cell. The very first cell was created in 1880 though today the energy conversion is much greater. There are several types of experiment solar power devices that include a solar updraft towers that is basically a greenhouse with a central tower. Heated air in the green house (heated form the sun) creates air to move which in turn moves a turbine and creates electricity. Other thermoelectric devices are currently being worked on.
Mot individuals that may run their electronic appliances directly from a solar charger will also have solar chargers that use batteries. When the sun goes down they simply switch to the charger that has stored energy and when the sun comes up they switch back to the direct power source. This is the best way to save on electricity and still have all of your electronic devices when you want.

To place two templates in one tab/screen in photoshop CS or PSE? Basically I want to combine two tempaltes in the same 12X24 document so that I can work them side by side rather than flipping back and forth. Anyone???
would love to know this as well. i hate that they lose their layers
I open one side, then change the canvas size to 24x12. Then go to the other template, select all layers, then drag them into the new larger template.
Last edited by Lisa; 12-10-2012 at 12:37 AM.
Can you select all of the layers at once and just drag them over to the 12x24 template? Then while all the layers are still selected, you can move them around together...
Yes, you can. I change my view (Window/Arrange) to View all in Windows. The drag (edited my post above, from copy/paste to select/drag) them onto the larger template. They will be in the same order, you just need to put them in the correct position.
2 ways to do this but found this to be the easiest (it is the same just opposite)
go to your first template and select all layers
in your layers palette go to the arrow where u find merger/duplicate/new layers etc. and look for GROUP LAYERS
click that and it will ask u for a name...ie template 1 (it doesn't matter its for u)
this will group everything in ONE sub folder...close the folder so that is all u see and drag that into your document while holding the SHIFT key to center it on your page.
NOW what i do is i have already done this to BOTH templates...u can do it first...last or never whatever works best...
is this what u r asking about????????
btw...with groups...u can turn off individual layers or by clicking on the group turn off the WHOLE GROUP
Here's a couple screen shots... just literally drag the selected layers into the empty space!
lisa is right...the only difference between this way and the way i said is:
one: u have to subfolders u can close and work with individually while also clicking on the group to change sizes without so much clutter
two: mine is for a 12 X 12 not a 2 pager but u can use groups that way too. i LOVE groups...use them all the time for templates...anything i have a LOT of that i want to minimize the visual for.

1st flower records for England and Wales!
Fantastic news bulb buddies, we have our first flower records!
Carnforth North Road Primary School in Lancashire, England were the first school to send in flower records. Their first crocus opened on the 4 February.
Raglan VC Primary School in Monmouthshire, Wales were the first Welsh school to send in flower records. Their first crocus opened on 7 February.
Well done to both these schools for sending in your flower records!
Archbishop Hutton's Primary School in England have also reported that the crocuses that they have planted in the ground have started to flower. Plants in the ground often flower sooner than ones in pots, has anyone else noticed this?
These flower records are much earlier than last year, when the first crocuses were reported on the 1 March. Why do you think this might be?
If we look at the results from the Spring Bulbs Project in previous years, flowering has been earlier in years with higher rainfall, warmer temperatures and more hours of sunshine. Why not have a think about what the weather has been like where you live? Do you think this year's weather will help your flowers to grow?
Your questions, my answers:
Ysgol Terrig: Our bulbs are now growing above the soil. Prof P: Fantastic new Ysgol Terrig, hopefully it won't be long until you start to see flowers.
Glyncollen Primary School: we are very exited because are bulbs are going to open soon. next week we are going to measure them. Prof P: Great investigating Glyncollen, have fun with your measuring.
Manor Road Primary School (Lancashire): It rained a lot and it was very cold and windy. It has not been minus yet. Prof P: I haven't recorded a minus temperature in Cardiff either.
Stanford in the Vale Primary School: We have had alot of rain recently but the bulbs continue to grow bigger and bigger. Prof P: It certainly has been very very rainy, I hope you haven't had any flooding.
Greyfriars RC Primary School: Me and D. are watering the plants really well. We enjoyed it alot. D: I am really enjoying the bulbs. My one is called xdox and pop. It was supposed to be xbox and pop. Thank you enjoyed this week. Prof P: What funny names for your plants! Very imaginative.
Freuchie Primary School: The children were really excited on Monday 27th January when they realised that 40mm of water had been collected over the weekend! Prof P: Wow - that really is a lot of rain!
Woodplumpton St. Anne's Primary School: We are very excited because the first shoots are beginning to appear. It has been very wet but so far the temperature has not dropped below zero. We wonder if this is unusual. Prof P: Great question Woodplumpton! I have had a look back over our weather data for previous years and it looks like this is not that unusual. The average daytime temperature for the month has only dropped below zero once in the 8 years we have been running the Spring Bulbs investigation. This was in December 2011 when there was heavy snow. I do think it has been less cold this January than in previous years. I look forward to receiving the weather data from all the schools so I can compare all the data in my Spring Bulbs Report!
Newport Primary School: Horrible wet weather most of the week. Prof P: The trouble with the rain is that it gets in the way of playtime doesn't it?
Manor Road Primary School (Lancashire): The weather has been cold, wet and windy this week. We have spotted our first shoots peeping through in our pots though. Prof P: It seems like your bulbs don't mind the wet weather too much.
Chatelherault Primary School: Bad news some people have been pulling out our bulbs but some are growing. And we have had a lot of rain and sun. Prof P: Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that someone has disturbed your bulbs. I hope that the ones that are left will be okay. Sun and rain are the perfect combination to make them grow!

Big Garden Bird Watch
Last weekend was RSPB's annual Big Garden Bird Watch, the world's largest bird survey! On Saturday I joined in the fun by making fat ball birdfeeders with some of the visitors to the museum. Inspired by the Big Garden Bird Watch, I spent a little time this week in the bird hide at St Fagans. Here are a few photos of what I saw…
Did you take part? What birds you see in your garden? Remember to report your findings to the RSPB - Big Garden Bird Watch
Keep in touch with the wildlife at St Fagans by following on Twitter
Little Tiny Shoots
Hi bulb buddies
How are your bulbs getting on? Remember to watch them closely as from January onwards you may start to see little green shoots pushing up through the soil – it's very exciting when they first appear! I was so happy when I went outside this week and saw these little tiny shoots in my plant pots – they are so lovely!
Archbishop Hutton's Primary School sent me this message: A. and J. came running to tell me that our first crocuses have appeared over the weekend and we have taken some photos of them.
That's fantastic news! Well done A. and J.! I am really glad you are so excited about your plants. I would love to see your photos, maybe you could email them to me?
I hope you are all enjoying your investigation bulb buddies. When your plants start to peep through the soil, why don't you take some photos too? If you email them to me I will put them on this blog.
- Keep up the great work sending in your weather reports.
- Watch for your first shoots to arrive.
- Keep watching every day as they grow taller.
- When you flowers open - celebrate!! Then record the date and how high the plant is.
- Send me your Flower Records on the website.
Please use my Power Point presentation to find out how to keep flower records.
Your questions, my answers:
Ysgol Bro Eirwg: Blwyddyn Newydd Dda Athro'r Ardd! Ar ôl y gwyliau roedd y casglydd glaw yn llawn, felly methu cymryd darlleniad cywir. Arthro'r Ardd: Blwyddyn Newydd Dda Ysgol Bro Eirwg! Diolch am roi gwybod i fi am eich problemau mesur glaw, bydda i'n nodi hyn. Peidiwch â phoeni, digwyddodd hyn i lawer o ysgolion oherwydd iddi fwrw cymaint o law dros y gwyliau.
Cawthorne's Endowed Primary School: Im sorry we missed Friday we still want to go to Wales!!! Please wish us luck in Manchester. Prof P: Wishing you lots and lots of luck with your Spring bulbs Cawthorne School! Just wanted to let you know that if you are an English School and you win the Super Scientist Prize, we will arrange a day out for you in England instead of you travelling to Wales. It will still be a Super fun day, I promise.
Woodplumpton St. Anne's Primary School: sorry we forgot to take readings on two days - our teacher was not in school to remind us. There was a lot of rain over the holidays! We were surprised the temperatures were as high as they were. It felt colder. We talked about wind chill. Prof P: You are doing a great job and I am very pleased to hear you have talked about wind chill, it can make us feel VERY cold, can't it? Brrrrr.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: When we came back from our Christmas break the rainfall gauge was overflowing as nobody had been able to empty it over the holidays. The ground is getting very wet and muddy and we have to be careful collecting the information. Prof P: Be careful in the mud! We don't want any accidents, were you wearing your school shoes or your wellies?
Raglan VC Primary: Extreme rainfall on Wednesday evening. Prof P: There has been some very extreme weather recently Raglan, you are right!
Llanishen Fach C.P School: No rainfall measurement for Monday as rain gauge was full from holiday. Very high measurement for Friday rainfall - gauge was emptied on Weds and no rainfall Thursday during day. Prof P: Excellent weather reporting Llanishen Fach.
Stanford in the Vale Primary School: Monday we were off. We have noticed that the bulbs have started to sprout and are growing nicely. Prof P: Fantastic news!! Thanks for letting me know I hope you enjoy watching them grow!
Greyfriars RC Primary School: it was 50mm because that was all over the holidays. C: this is exciting and i dont know whats gonna happen. R: it was fun watering the plants with C. Prof P: Well done C and R, its great to hear you are working together and having fun.
Ysgol Nant Y Coed: School was closed on Monday sorry professor plant. Prof P: That's okay Ysgol Nant Y Coed, keep up the good work!
John Cross CE Primary School: we had some problems because sheep got on to our field and knocked over the rain collector. Prof P: What cheeky sheep! Maybe they were interested in your investigation and came over to have a closer look.
At the beginning of January we had a crochet session where myself and Anna Phillips attempted to turn everyone into crochet queens. Anna made up a great little easy pattern to crochet circles which could then be turned into a garland, or maybe a coaster if you stopped at just making one. We will be having another crochet meet up on March 15 so come along to that one, and because everyone seems keen I'll try and add more dates to the rest of the year.
St Dwynwen's Day Cards and a Mocktail
Last saturday (25th) was St Dwynwen's Day! I hope you all had cards and treats... we had a family drop-in card making session here in St Fagans National History Museum and we also did a bit of sewing too.
We will be doing something pretty similar for Valentine's Day on 8th and 9th of February.
And the mocktail?
That was for reading group! We were discussing 'Rules of Civility' by Amor Towles which is set in 1930s New York and therefore we had suitably 30s type refreshments - Shirley Temples and kit kats all round! (the kit-kat was introduced in 1937). Our next reading group meet up will be on 22 February where we'll be discussing Alan Hollinghurst's 'The Stranger's Child'. It's a big book, so you'd better start now.
A Child's Christmas in Wales - Your Chistmas Memories
We've had some lovely, poetic and evocative examples in our Dylan Thomas themed family workshops these past couple of weeks, lots of laden christmas trees, roaring fires, burning christmas puds, snow boots and snowmen, and stocking full to bursting point to name but a few, here are some photos of some of them.
December 2013
A Child's Christmas in Wales - Family Christmas Holiday Workshops at National Museum, Cardiff
Inspired by the amazing Peter Blake exhibition 'Llareggub' (Peter Blake illustrates Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas) we are going to be enjoying extracts from Dylan Thomas' 'A Child's Christmas in Wales' in the Clore Discovery Centre and making lovely bags to store our own festive treasures.
As can be seen from the photograph of our prepartations the activity will involve lots of ribbon, shiny bells, the wonderful words of Dylan Thomas and a chance for you to share your favourite Christmas memories.
Nadolig Llawen / Happy Christmas
One recording week til Christmas!
Merry Christmas Bulb Buddies!
I can't believe this is the last recording week of 2013! Congratulations on keeping weather records for the last six weeks! You don't need to keep anymore records now until the week beginning the 2nd of January 2014. You can leave your bulbs in school over Christmas and relax until the New Year. I hope you have a fantastic Christmas after working so hard this term!
We've had some terrible weather this week so I do hope you didn't have any storm damage or flooding in your local area. The weather has caused some terrible problems for people across the UK - see the weather in pictures http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/feeds/25232374
Manor Primary School (Oxfordshire) reported:We are very sad to say that all the plant pots blew over. As a result the bulbs and compost came out the pots. I just wondered what you would like us to do and whether we can re pot and carry on?
With the recent weather, I'm sure many pots blew over and many bulbs will need re-potting. Don't worry your baby bulbs are fairly tough and will be fine if they are quickly tucked safely back into their pots.
Merry Christmas from Professor Plant and Baby Bulb!
Your questions:
St. Mary's Catholic Primary School, Leyland: Dear Professor Plant. On Tuesday and Friday this week, we think our temperature was so high because the sun was shining right on our thermometer. It felt so much colder - our teacher's car thermometer showed 3 degrees. Next week, we are going to move our thermometer to a different place where the sun will not shine directly onto it. Love from Mrs Thompson's Year 1 Class. Prof:P: You've done the right thing here, it's important that thermometers are not placed in direct sunlight or they will show higher temperatures.
Raglan VC Primary: Rainfall on Mon included the weekend rainfall. A crocus bulb was starting to shoot (20/11/13), we covered it with a handful of compost. Prof.P: This is a good idea to keep the bulb warm but as long as the crocus bulb was planted 10cm beneath the soil then you shouldn't need to cover over any shoots in future.
Ysgol Bro Eirwg: Cwestiwn oddi wrth Rhys: Pam mae angen dwr ar y bylbiau? Prof.P: You only need to water your bulbs if the soil in the pots becomes dry to touch. At this time of year there should be plenty of water from the rain but it's important to check your pots when you make your weather records. Bulbs need water which they absorb through their roots. The water helps the plant grow shoots and prepare to flower in the spring.
Manor Road Primary School (Lancashire): It's been a blustery but fairly dry week here in Lancashire. Our bulb labels have suffered in the winds but hopefully the bulbs will be snug in their pots! Prof.P: Sorry your labels are ruined but glad your bulbs are safe :-)
Burscough Bridge Methodist School: Tuesday there was a small layering of snow. Prof.P: How exciting! Also bulbs need cold weather to trigger their growth at this time of year - so all good for the bulbs.
Ysgol Rhys Prichard: Tuesday rainfall fell as sleet. Thursday was the first real frost this winter. Prof.P: Again, this is great for the bulbs to trigger their growth.
Arkholme CE Primary School: There are some difficulties on a Monday morning because sometimes it might have rained over the weekend. Prof.P: Don't worry Arkholme - we expect all the schools taking part to have a higher reading on a Monday so this is not a problem.
Greyfriars RC Primary School: hi our bulbs are doing fine and the leaves on the trees in the school garden have fallen. The Scots Pine still has its needles. From Airlie and Athen. Prof.P: Yes the Scots pine is one of our few native plants to remain green in the winter. Can you think of anymore? These plants are often mentioned in carols.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: The weather is very varied each day; sunshine, cloud, breeze. On Sunday night it froze hard so even though the temperature was high in the sunshine, the compost in the pots was frozen. Prof.P: this is good for the bulbs at this time of year it tells them that it is winter now and that spring is on its way in a few months.
St. Ignatius Primary School: Again the bulbs have been vandalised over the weekend. The pots have been moved or tipped over. Our janitor is out at the moment trying to fix them and get everything back to normal. We are very upset and disappointed by this but we will continue to look after our plants as best we can. Prof.P: Very sorry to hear that this has happened again but delighted to hear that you are determined to continue. Is there anywhere else in the school that is safer to keep them?
Glyncollen Primary School: We are getting really good at recording our weather data. This week has been very cold. We hope the bulbs are warm in the earth. Prof.P: Don't worry the bulbs will be fine - they like it cold at this time of year. Glad to hear that you are getting good at keeping your weather records it's a very useful skill that you are learning.
Raglan VC Primary: 10% of pots are showing growth of bulbs. Prof.P: I like how you are reporting this. Good use of numeracy!
Burscough Bridge Methodist School: Thursday night seen the area hit by storms. Prof.P: Glad the school is safe.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: A terrible storm on Tuesday night which continued with a wet and windy Wednesday. The pots keep filling up with leaves as fast as we can clear them but no need to water yet. The children are enjoying looking at the scales on the rain gauge and thermometer and comparing them to the rulers we are using in maths. Prof.P: Great to hear you are enjoying comparing this will make you super at science. Don't worry about the leaves too much the bulbs will find their way through the leaves without any problems.
November 2013
Orange autumn
Wow the trees are beautiful at St Fagans: National History Museum this week! I love the autumn colours.
What colour are the leaves where you live, brown red, yellow or all gone? The trees like the spring bulbs are finely tuned into our temperatures. Not been too cold in Cardiff yet, so in places we still do have some green leaves. But if it's been cold where you live the leaves may have already dropped.
85 records in this week - thanks to all of you who are getting out each day to keep your weather records!
The coldest temperature recorded so far is -1 degree Celsius recorded by St. Blanes Primary School in Scotland. St. Blanes: "It's soooooooo cold today Professor Plant today! We had to wear our hats, scarves & gloves when we went outside to take our weather readings. We discovered that all the water had frozen and turned into ice - WOW! Room 3 in St Blanes are LOVING this project, even though our teeth are chattering!" Take a look at where they are on the map or view their temperatures.
The most rain was recorded in Ysgol Bro Eirwg this week 140mm! Bro Eirwg: "We've enjoyed collecting data this week. When will the bulbs start to grow?" They will be growing beneath the soil already but shoots should appear above the soil from January onwards.
Your questions - my answers:
- Culross Primary School. Very cold week - children enjoyed measuring rainfall and looking at temperatures. We also discussed the importance of trying to record results at the same time each day. Prof.P: Very good - this is important for ensuring a fair test!
- St. Blanes Primary School. We are excited to go out into the school garden everyday to check our rain gauge and thermometer! Ysgol Sychdyn: We have enjoyed recording the weather data. Prof.P: Fantastic - you'll be weather experts soon!
- Cawthorne's Endowed Primary School. Hello Professor Plant this is a very good idea. Prof.P: thanks you very much!
- St. Mary's Catholic Primary School. Thank you Professor Plant for sending us the bulbs. We enjoyed planting them and can't wait to see what they look like when they grow. From Year 1 children at St Mary's in Leyland. Prof.P: I'm sure the flowers will be beautiful Year 1!
Kids take-over National Museum Cardiff!
Last Thursday 14th November Year 6 pupils from Trelai Primary School took part in National Taking Over Museums Day - a celebration of children and young people's contribution to museums, galleries and heritage sites across the UK.
The pupils worked with Learning Staff and Natural Science Curators at the National Museum Cardiff to help develop content for a new family science exhibition, which is due to open in July 2014.
Pupils gave us feedback on existing science galleries, chose objects for the exhibition and tested some potential activities for this hands-on exhibition.
It was a really successful day and the feedback from the children was so insightful, with lots of really useful ideas that will help inform our planning of the exhibition.
We're really looking forward to inviting them back to the exhibition launch in July.

I love using up scraps. Count me in for the giveaway!ReplyDelete

That quilt and those scraps are so gorgeous! I definately don't have enough scraps. I love the look of scrappy quilts but haven't made enough projects to have a huge variety of scraps. Thanks for a great giveaway!!ReplyDelete
I don't have many scraps, but that's because before I start a project I map out EXACTLY how I'm going to cut out the blocks with the very least amount of fabric possible. 'Tis the poor poor life of a college student.ReplyDelete
Beautiful fabrics. I love Amy Butler :)
Lovely, lovely quilt! Lovely, lovely scraps. The quilt is the exact pattern I want to make for our room. I really like it. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete
What a great bunch of scraps! They would be put to good use here.ReplyDelete
