This rug is even nicer in reality. It has fantastic texture not seen in photo and feels wonderful.
I was at first hesitant buying this rug as I have learned from previous experience judging the true color of a rug is tough over the internet. I actually bought two 8x10's and crossed my fingers. This rug is absolutely gorgeous! The individual threads are of varying lengths which adds to the modern shag look of the whole thing. The charcoal gray main color really pops with the white and slight blue tones. The blues mentioned are barely noticeable making this more of a charcoal gray rug with white tones intermixed. This rug had no weird smell and no shedding out of the bag. It seems to be made of high quality materials and has a nice sheen to it making it an elegant focal point of my modern living space . I highly recommend this rug to anyone looking to aid some flair to their own modern living space. I am extremely happy with my purchase!
Wow! Stunning! Every time I look at this rug I am pleased. It made our room come alive and seem finished. It is a steel gray color, I was concerned about the description stating there was blue in the rug, but it is a beautiful silver gray color. The texture is wonderful and we are very happy.
This rug is so soft and the color is beautiful. I have received so many compliments on the rug. I read lots of reviews on this rug some good and some bad but this rug is perfect! I want to run my bare feet on it all the time. It's nice and I recommend this rug.
Got the rug last night, unrolled it and fluffed up the shag by running my hand over it. It's incredibly silky soft, and like most shags is not very cushion-y like a wool rug, so I will get a thicker rug pad to go under it. The white strands have a boxlike ribbon on the end of them, a very cool look. The gray strands are more silvery/reflective, which is exactly what I wanted. Saw this or something similar in a store for much more. Very pleased with it.
This rug was gorgeous but I thought it was grey. It actually is more black and grey with white pieces mixed in. I returned it because I wanted a solid grey.
Very handsome rug, but not extremely functional hard to vacuum.
We needed a new rug to replace an old chevron style rug that had seen its day. This rug has really elevated our space. It looks luxurious and enhances our mid century modern aesthetic. It hides mess and is soft (also silky) enough for me to play with my 10 week old daughter on it. My husband keeps commenting on how much he likes it... and my dog and two cats appear to like it as well (we have a crowded living room!) It's a hit with everyone! I am considering buying a second one (the silver option) for our office space. I just love this rug!
Expecting to open a charcoal colored rug, I was quite amazed that they call this rub Charcoal. It was more blue with sports of purple in it. There was no way it would go in room. In face it would not go any room in my house. So, I sent it back and purchased another one. I am very happy with my second choice. See, things just happen for a reason.
This is perfect for my contemporary room. The pile is nice and thick and vacuums nicely. Color is true to the gray and love the little white flecks ini it. It does measure an inch or two smaller than advertised so I had to trim the padding I have under the rug.

More in Bathroom
Measure 11 and 7/8" down from the top of the tub deck and make a mark. Set the laser level at this height.
Attach a batten board to the tub deck. The board supports the row of tiles from slipping down.
Mix a bucket of thinset to a peanut butter consistency (Image 1). Back butter the tiles with a 3/16" square-notch trowel (Image 2).
Set the tiles along the batten board using spacers to ensure even placement (Image 3).
To determine the size of the tiles around the top of the tub, set the tile on top and use a level to make sure it is flush with the front (Image 4). Scribe a line across the top of the tile so that the tile will fall just under the lip of the tub (Image 5).

Comments about Panasonic 10-Cup Fuzzy Logic Rice Cooker, White:
We generally cook brown or white rice. About 30 minutes for white/1.75 hours for brown. Easiest way is 3 cups of either white or brown with 3 cups of water, otherwise you have to do math and who wants to do that. Really like this rice cooker. All parts of the rice cooker are easy clean with wash cloth. Rice comes out nice, moist and fluffy. Good idea to take non-stick pot out of rice cooker right after it's done cooking. Warm feature will begin to "toast" rice a little after about 15 minutes. Timing feature works well. Built in handle to carry and put on shelf is a very handy feature. Have had the rice cooker for six months and use it once or twice a week.

Mr. Natural Worm Castings USES - Vegetable Production - Potting Mixes - Gardening - Delicate Houseplants - Shrubs and Trees DESCRIPTION Mr. Natural Worm Castings are a complete, natural, all-purpose organic fertilizer. Mr. Natural Worm Castings are produced naturally by earthworms. Castings are Mother Nature's purest form of a sustained release plant food. The worms are fed a special peat, which contains a wide variety of minerals and trace elements. The end product is "super humus", an extremely fertile topsoil containing all the elements required for optimum plant nutrition. The many bene ts of worm castings include: - Improved Growth: Extensive university testing has been performed by Ohio State, Cornell Univer sity, and UC Davis, to prove the results with worm castings. These tests have shown improved ower size, bloom quantity, and color. Fruit and vegetable tests have resulted in yield improvements from 15% to 57% as well as improvements in taste and appearance. - 100% Organic: This product comes straight from nature with no alterations whatsoever. - Increased Drought Resistance: Watering can be reduced up to 50% - Non-Toxic: Safe for children and pets. No ground water contamination. - Won't Burn: Without the salts found in synthetic fertilizers, worm castings will not burn even the most delicate plants. - Odor Free / Odor Elimination: No manure odor. Worm castings have the fragrance of rich healthy soil. Worm castings are very quickly e ective at odor elimination. Testing has shown that a 20% mix of worm castings with conventional manure or compost will eliminate all objectionable odors within 8 hours. - Repels Pests: Recent studies have shown that applying worm castings to the soil around plants increases the production of a certain enzyme that is o ensive to insects that feed on plant juices, including white ies, aphids, and spider mites. - Suppresses Fungal Diseases: Research has demonstrated that worm castings can suppress fungal disease and aid in disease prevention on plants where disease pressure is great. APPLICATION General Application Rates Potted plants: Use about 1/3 Mr. Natural Worm Castings with 2/3 potting soil. Row crops: Side dress Mr. Natural Worm Castings along row crops in your garden. Topdressing: Apply a ½" to 1" layer of Mr. Natural Worm Castings to the soil. When you water, the nutrients lter down to the roots of your plants. Mix Mr. Natural Worm Castings with water at 1:3 ratio. Let soak overnight. Stir well and pour or lter through cheesecloth and add to sprayer. Turf: Apply approximately 10 lbs. Mr. Natural Worm Castings per 100 square feet. Topdress or lightly incorporate.

"When you pay social security taxes, you are in no way making provision for your own retirement. You are paying the pensions of those who are already retired. Once you understand this, you see that whether you will get the benefits you are counting on when you retire depends on whether Congress will levy enough taxes, borrow enough, or print enough money...." ~ Allen Wallis
"Libertarianism, Feminism, and Nonviolent Action: A Synthesis"
"There is a need to develop libertarian responses to writings on race, gender, and sexual orientation. Offering such responses not only demonstrates to potential opponents of libertarian reform that libertarianism can seriously address these issues: libertarian responses can also help us confront forms of "private" oppression that are not per se un-libertarian, but which support state oppression. Drawing on thinkers such as Murray Rothbard, Roderick Long, Charles Johnson, Gene Sharp, Wendy McElroy, and bell hooks, this paper establishes historical links between the intellectual traditions of feminism, nonviolent action, and libertarianism, and explores what a nonviolent, libertarian resistance to patriarchy might look like. By demonstrating the analogies between Sharp's and Rothbard's theories of political power and hooks' theory of patriarchy, this paper shows that Sharp's techniques for resistance to state tyranny can be adapted for use against patriarchal oppression."

Black Galaxy granite opinions??
I am a newbie here and have spent the past several months lurking and reading and learning so much through all the wonderful posts on here. My new flooring was installed last week, my cabinets yesterday and I am now down to the crunch and have to pick out a countertop tomorrow as the fellow is coming by to measure. My cabinets are Ikea Adel Medium Brown, if anyone is familiar with that, and the flooring a handshaved reddish-brown. About a wall and a half of the kitchen is mostly windows, southern exposure, so I"m pretty sure we have enough light to easily have a black countertop. I was going to go with Absolute but then thought I wanted a bit more punch. My husband loves Black Galaxy and I love it, too, especially when it "twinkles." My only concern is whether I will "love it long time." I generally don't like fussy but prefer simpler but like I say, I really do like the look of the Galaxy. Any thoughts at all??? Cleanup isn't so much a concern. I wipe my counters every day anyway and am committed to having to do so religiously if I go with black granite. Thanks so much :)
Doesn't Black Galaxy have tiny copper colored sparkles in it? I think that would look great with your medium brown cabinets.
I have black galaxy, actually star galaxy with the same cabinets you have. I love it. You can't hurt this granite and it doesn't need sealing. My kitchen doesn't get much light and it still looks fine. Give me a minute and I will send you some pictures.
Thank you :) it's funny because when I first saw my cabinets hanging up I thought "black galaxy" and the other choices kind of went out the window. I think it would go perfectly with the cabinets. Funny, 'cause I only picked up a sample of it my THIRD trip to the granite shop. And BTW, of course, I asked about the sealing and they said, oh, yes, it definitely had to be sealed. Has anyone had it sealed and not had any problems?
Check the absorption rate...I think you'll find it's too dense to take a sealer (absorption rate From the Stone Advice thread (linked in the "Read Me" thread): BUT: Not all stones need sealer either. Stones like Blue Pearl, Ubatuba, Black Galaxy, Verde Peacock, Verde Butterfly, Platinum Pearl and many others are too dense to absorb any liquids - sealers included. Sealers only protect stone from staining through absorption, so in stones with low absorption coefficients, sealing would be superfluous.
Sealing dense stones could lead to nasty results, such as streaking and ghost etching, so DO NOT go by the motto of "seal it anyway, it could not hurt". Rather test your stone for absorption by dripping water on it to see if it darkens any. If the water has no effect on the stone, sealing it is unnecessary.
Thread: Stone Information and Advice (& Checklists)
Here is a link that might be useful: Read Me If You're New To GW Kitchens!
Kitchens in the Finished Kitchens Blog (FKB) with Black Galaxy:
Thanks, Buehl for both. From what I read I didn't think it needed sealing either. I've asked and they said "Oh, yes, it does," but I'm a bit nervous about it all. On the other hand at this stage of the game, I'm also tired of arguing with contractors and suppliers ;)
Thank you. BTW, they really shouldn't be sealing it. It will just sit on top. Also make sure it is true black galaxy and not fake dyed. My brother was sold fake black galaxy and had to have it all yanked out. How you can tell is look at the raw edge of the slab. If it's doctored, you will see the black dye there.
Yes, some black stones have been dyed (especially those from China). To tell if you have dyed black granite (Black Galaxy, Absolute Black, etc.), test it. The test is in the Stone Advice thread I linked to previously.
The black color along the edge may or may not be dye, so it's better to test it specifically for dye rather than assume it's dyed when you see a black edge.
If it's dyed, don't get it. They dye will start coming off and you'll be left w/a splotchy stone that will eventually return to whatever color it was originally.
Black Galaxy granite is one of the darkest Stone available. This comes with Metalic stars which makes it looks like galaxy in the sky.

I'm looking for a healthier alternative to white flour (i.e. wheat, almond, etc...). Thanks in advance for the feedback.
Emily is a trusted source on General Cooking.
I've not done this but would definitely try whole wheat pastry flour. It's got a more similar texture to AP flour than does regular whole wheat and isn't overly flavored in any way as are flours like ceci, chestnut and so forth. I use 100% ww pastry flour in my muffins all the time. good luck!
I've made them with a mix of flours and cornmeal--it keeps them a little easier to eat, more crumbly than totally hard! http://www.food52.com/recipes...

Lizelia Augusta Jenkins Moorer
Down in history we find it and in grandest works of art,
How the men on fields of battle play so well the soldier's part,
But I come to tell the story of relief from care and pain
Rendered them by Negro women in the Cuban War with Spain.
When the scourge of yellow fever fell upon the boys in blue.
And the nation stood in wonder scarcely knowing what to do,
There was found a Negro woman, Mrs. Curtis was her name,
Wife, she was, of a physician with the highest social fame.
When the name of Mrs. Curtis fell upon the nation's ear
And her worth on such occasions had been shown in language clear,
She was summoned by McKinley to the White House—there to plan
How to change the dread condition; how to stay the soldier's ban.
By him there she was commissioned, given fullest oversight
Of relieving fever-stricken in the famous Cuban fight;
With a confidence unfailing, she her preparations made—
Uncle Sam his backing promised true success could not be stayed.
When a call she made for helpers, from the nation's busy throng,
The response from Negro nurses came three hundred eighty strong,
In the Catholics were also, found one hundred twenty nuns,
Who would brave the field as nurses for the fever-stricken ones.
In this noble work of mercy were their duties done so well
That a halo of enchantment round them all is made to dwell,
When we search the war department no complaint of them is found,
Not a word to their discredit and to truth that record's bound.
While upon the field of battle helping stem the fever's tide,
While upon that angel mission seven Negro nurses died,
In this work the nuns had fallen till the same had numbered four;
Thus on snowy, angel pinions they the news to heaven bore.
When our boys had thrashed the Spaniards, Mrs. Curtis straightway sent
A petition into congress praying that a monument
Be at Arlington erected out of sacred memory
Of the nurses who in Cuba died to make the island free.
Mrs. Curtis went in person, she in congress did appear,
Told the story of her labors, of her precious deeds of cheer,
She convincingly impressed it in the nation's congress true,
That for those who fell on duty still a monument was due.
An apportionment by congress for the same at once was made,
Yea, to make a fit memorial for the nation's honored dead;
Twenty-five will name the thousands of the dollars that were spent—
In the nation's cemetery stands the nurses' monument.
Mrs. Curtis and her nurses have been valiant in the strife,
May such heroines be favored with a long and happy life;
In the face of such achievements on the nation's battle field,
Prejudice is made to tremble, partly too, his lips are sealed.

A priceless desert find by a kid
Now 54, Mark Phillips visits Indidan pot he found in 1970
Nowadays when they are found the park sends out a team and then notifies whatever Indian tribe would most likely lay claim. A representative of the tribe will then come for a look.
"Their decision for a number of years now has been to leave them where they were found," Webb said. "That's where they belong. That's where they were left by the ancient ones."
Webb said archeologists will camouflage the Ollas by stacking dead brush around them.
Determining the age of the Ollas is difficult, Webb said. The one Phillips found could be anywhere from a couple hundred years old to a couple thousand years old.

After 22 seasons, Detroit Red Wings' captain Steve Yzerman is calling it a career, Sportsnet has learned. The 41-year old is considered one of the greatest players ever to wear the red and white, and led Detroit to three Stanley Cups, which included a Conn Smythe trophy in 1998. Also sitting in the ten-time all-star's trophy case is a gold medal from the 2002 Olympics. Yzerman finishes his career with 692 goals and 1,063 assists for 1,755 points in 1,514 regular season games.added 9:43am, I am trying to see if any major outlets will be video streaming the conference. I will keep you posted. Audio stream can be found at WDFN or WXYT. You may have to register to listen... added 10:30am, from the Detroit Free Press,
Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman most likely will announce his retirement this afternoon at 1 p.m. during a news conference at Joe Louis Arena. Team owner Mike Ilitch will attend, a strong indication that Yzerman's decision is to hang up his skates rather than to return for a 23rd NHL season. The Wings have a front-office job ready for Yzerman, as special assistant to general manager Ken Holland. Yzerman repeatedly has said he is not very interested in coaching, although he concedes it is the closest a player can come to retaining the exhilaration of playing.added 10:31am, via the AP,
The Red Wings called a news conference Monday to discuss the status of Steve Yzerman, their 41-year-old captain who has played his entire NHL career with Detroit. Asked whether the news conference was to announce whether Yzerman would stay or go, team spokesman John Hahn said, "I can tell you that it involves Steve. I can't tell you what it's about."added 10:51am, While we sit and wait, enjoy some Stevie videos... added 11:00am, Just received an email stating the NBC affiliate in Detroit, WDIV, will be streaming the video of the press conference. added 11:12am, Shawn Burr, former Red Wing was just on WDFN and stated Stevie should have waited until July 15th to make this announcement. Season ticket $$$ is due July 14th! Shawn is still not convinced Steve is retiring. He said maybe the Wings don't know what this conference is about either, just that involves Steve. added 11:23am, via TSN,
The Wings have not confirmed the reason for the newser, but TSN has learned that Yzerman told some of his close friends in hockey that he would announce his retirement on Monday.update 5:57pm, FSN Detroit will show the Yzerman press conference at 8pm tonight and again after the Tigers ballgame which starts at 10pm.

Sabres Must Think Differently
by Paul on 07/03/06 at 11:02 AM ET

from Bucky Gleason of the Buffalo News,
Owner Tom Golisano has said several times that he wished his employees had one-day contracts. It would be nice if there were world peace, too, but it's not reality. Golisano pulled the Sabres from bankruptcy, but let's not forget he was making an investment. He dropped $60 million on the franchise and has watched its value skyrocket in the past two years. No problem here with him turning a profit, but he can't have it both ways. The lines to the ticket counter will get much shorter very quickly if fans believe they're being taken for a ride. It starts with changing the Sabres' thinking and accepting the fact that long-term contracts are part of the new NHL. Regier conceded Sunday that they were moving in that direction. It's about time. The Sabres know what they have in their young players. The smart play would be locking them up for lengthy deals, which would keep the team intact and get tomorrow's talent at today's prices.more

Why Now?

from Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe,
Why, oh why, weren't the Bruins spending like this back in the day when there was no salary cap? Now that a limit exists on what NHL clubs can spend on salaries -- that ceiling being $44 million for the upcoming season, year No. 2 of the NHL cap -- suddenly Freres Jacobs and Friends have gone swashbuckling into the free agent market like a bunch of latter-day Rangers, Red Wings, Stars, Avs, and Flyers. Now, is spending a bad thing? No, it's not, provided the war chest is being emptied out for the right warriors. Before the cap came in, the Red Wings did the best job of spending, spending, and spending more, but they dished it to the right people (in other words, not to Marty Lapointe and Alexei Zhamnov).read on

from Bergen Record,
After re-signing unrestricted free agents Patrik Elias and Jamie Langenbrunner to long-term contracts on Saturday, Devils general manager Lou Lamoriello continued the process of locking up his team's core Sunday by re-signing restricted free agent defenseman Colin White, sources told The Record. White, 28, passed up a chance to become an unrestricted free agent next year by signing a six-year contract at $3 million per season.

Sources have told TSN that Edmonton could finally deal the former Hart and Norris trophy winner possibly within the next 24 hours. Anaheim is believed to still be a major player which could be an absolute nightmare for teams matching up against a duo like Pronger and one of the other best defencemen in hockey- Scott Neidermayer.

Arnott liked what he heard about the Predators from former and current players. He also liked what he hard from Poile and Predators coach Barry Trotz. "They answered everything I wanted to know without me having to ask," Arnott said. "Nashville was where I wanted to be. It is the time in my career to move on. I want to be the go-to guy. I want to be the horse on the ice. I am going to try to do everything I can to help bring a Stanley Cup to Nashville."more

Talk Is Belfour May Be A Wing

from the Toronto Sun,
"Ed's plans are definitely to play goal again in the NHL," agent Ron Salcer said yesterday. "He's weighing his options, doing his therapy religiously (from spring back surgery) and making significant progress every day." Asked if the Leafs' decision to terminate his contract last week would scare other teams away from the 41-year-old, Salcer retorted "it would be hard not to pay attention to Ed Belfour if he's available. He's come back from every kind of adversity." Rumours continue to swirl that Belfour could wind up with the Detroit Red Wings later this summer in tandem with Chris Osgood.more...basically a recap of player movemen during the UFA period...

Wings Press Conference
by Paul on 07/03/06 at 01:14 AM ET
Comments (0)
Wings have called a 1pm press conference for Monday. Let the speculation begin. added 11:30pm, After making a few phone calls, radio and TV networks have been invited to cover the conference. Every sign points to Steve Yzerman retiring. added 11:55pm, Local radio and TV stations are now planning a live cut-in of the press conference. added 7:00am Monday, from the Detroit News,
The Red Wings have called a 1 p.m. news conference for Monday. The organization is calling it a major announcement, which fuels speculation it be regarding the future of Steve Yzerman, who has been torn about retirement or playing another season. If not Yzerman, the Wings could be announcing the acquisition of a free agent. Holland is in the market for a veteran No. 1 goalie, and one strong possibility is Ed Belfour. A physical defenseman is another need, and Aaron Ward, a former Red Wing who recently won a Stanley Cup with the Carolina Hurricanes, has been linked to the Red Wings.added 8:34am, from Mlive,
Yzerman spoke with Wings general manager Ken Holland on Friday, and a team source said Yzerman assured the club that he would make a decision by today. It's highly unlikely the Wings would hold a press conference to announce that Yzerman is returning.

Wild Plan

Comments (0)
from the AP via Akron Beacon Journal,
With local fans growing more and more impatient with the team's unwillingness to spend money on the free agent market, the Wild leaped into action this weekend, spending nearly $37 million on three players. The Wild signed Minnesota native and gritty forward Mark Parrish to a five-year, $13.25 million deal, Philadelphia defenseman Kim Johnsson to a four-year, $19.4 million deal and Vancouver defenseman Keith Carney to a two-year, $4.2 million deal, all late Saturday night. And while the activity drew praise from fans and players, general manager Doug Risebrough said that was the plan all along. "It's consistent with what we've said we were going to do," Risebrough said Sunday. "We wanted to develop some young players, see what they can do, then find out how we can help make them better."read on

from Hadley on Sports,
P-D (St. Louis Post-Dispatch) hockey writer Jeremy Rutherford is reporting the Blues have signed Dan Hinote.added 7:38am Monday, from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
Here it is July, and Weight is back, Drake is still here, and Pleau and Kitchen aren't going anywhere. On a hot summer day, the Blues got a double-scoop Sunday, re-signing head coach Mike Kitchen to a two-year contract while persuading Weight to return to the team with a two-year, $7 million deal. If not for a couple of other free-agent signings, including the addition of forward Dan Hinote Sunday, the 2006-07 Blues are starting look a lot like, well, the 2005-06 model. But new president John Davidson believes that's a good thing.

Senken induction portable unit stopped working
SheilaOctober 15, 2013
The controls light so I know it's getting power, but that's it! I had not used it for about three months. Last time I used it it was fine. Any idea what might be going on? How to fix it?
I guess it is worth asking if you are testing it with a suitably inductive pan.
If so, there are two paths to a solution. (a) Buy a new, preferably better unit. (b) Become an electrical engineer or electronics technician and go through the guts determining what failed and what replacement part you can use in place of the failed part.
Path (b) is more expensive than buying a quality unit from CookTek. CookTek is a US company that likely will be around for a while to support their products. I have their 3500W wok unit.

Wilmine Merlain's curator insight, November 1, 2014 7:54 PM
With the development of modern equipment useful in maneuvering around the world, the time it took those living in the 1800's has been reduced to getting anywhere around the world with time spanning from 30- 24hrs. This of course has been made possible due to the development of roads, better boating constructions and air travel.
Michael Mazo's curator insight, December 10, 2014 8:12 PM
Since 1800 the rate of travel has increased exponentially through the years. From the very beginning of travel, it would take close to a week just to get from the east coast to the middle of the United States. Through the use of railroads we have overcome the "time" factor and essentially eliminated it from playing a role in the way we travel. Today's advances in transportation has made seeing others much easier and most importantly it has developed a connected world that allows for transport of goods and services possible to such an extent that as citizens of the United states we are able to access almost anything we need from a day to day basis. A technology like this will continue to expand and grow to make the life of people that much easier.
Cade Bruce's curator insight, March 19, 7:26 PM
This belongs under the category of Major geographical concepts underlying the geographical perspective, because it involves the geographic concept of time-space compression since the 1800s, and how the time it takes to travel has decreased greatly since the 1800s. This affects many things like economy because of the difficulty of trading over distance.
's comment, November 16, 2011 4:13 PM
Absolutely brilliant! The possibilities that this offers are staggering. If museums, galleries, and archives all got on board with this, they could create an incredible database that would allow teachers to add so much more depth to their lessons. I feel like having a visual timeline paired with geographic references in this capacity would give students (and everyone else!) a stronger understanding of how deeply history and geography are connected.
Seth Dixon's comment, November 16, 2011 6:40 PM
Agreed, this is conceptually amazing...but what a vast undertaking. I'm half-tempted to upload some pictures but I know that I've got too many pet projects at the moment and think that this one has the potential to overwhelm me time-wise.
's comment, November 17, 2011 3:37 PM
Awesome site! As an aspiring teacher, this website can be great for then and now projects. When explaining different eras or time periods this not only shows where certain things took place, but what they looked like as well. Definitely something that will become more popular in the social media aspect of society. Definitely a site I can spend hours on.
Paul Rymsza's comment, August 22, 2012 2:15 PM
the potential of this site is amazing between the interactive learning system and the correlation between the timeline and location. If the human geography class is anything like this i can't wait for it!
Seth Dixon's curator insight, September 28, 2013 3:34 PM
This database of global wars and conflicts is searchable through space and time. You can drag and click both the map and timeline to locate particular battles and wars, and then read more information about that conflict. This resource would be a great one to show students and let them explore to find what they see as interesting. This site is brimming with potential.
João Carreira's comment, September 4, 2012 1:24 PM
...Even as portuguese, I apreceated it very much. Thank you.
Don Brown Jr's comment, September 6, 2012 9:30 AM
This movie clip does demonstrate how language is connected not only to space and location but individual or group experiences as well. The languages used by the upper and lower orders in addressing each other or an "outsider" are very distinct within this film. Therefore if you're socioeconomic status effects the way you speak then perhaps the type of langue you use can indicate what different social groups within a society consider comical or entertaining such as dance and music?
Jess Pitrone's comment, April 29, 2013 9:18 PM
My Fair Lady has always been one of my favorite movies, and it really sparked my interest in linguistics and accents. Not only does your accent define where you're from physically, but it defines where you're from socially, as well. While Eliza Doolittle is from the same country, region, and city as Prof Higgins and the people coming out of the theater, she sounds completely different. Right away, her speech gives away what kind of social background she comes from.
Similarly to the "When did Americans lose their British accents?" article, this article helps relay how accents can help define a physical area, and it also shows a connection between accent and economics. Accent is both a cultural and an economic part of geography.
Joshua Lefkowitz's curator insight, January 15, 2014 11:13 PM
This sounds really intruging to me; I have heard of astroarchiology before in the aplication of finding undiscovered large objects (cities, towns sttlements) by using satellites to map deviations in teh earths surface accurately enough to distingush structures like a building foundation. I just find this sort of thing fascinating. I am still in awe that this dort of thing is possible.
Matthew Rowland's curator insight, April 18, 2013 12:35 AM
cool feature to google Earth... Too bad it can't go further back than 1995
's comment, September 10, 2012 11:37 AM
This map may have some major distortion problems but Mercator found ways to "fix" this. Although the regions closer to the poles may be distorted, he spaced his lines accordingly in order to indicate to the viewer that there is distortion. Navigators have found this map very useful throughout the centuries because a straight line drawn on this map are lines of constant compass bearing.
Jesse Gauthier's comment, September 10, 2012 9:36 PM
This is another example of why people viewing a flat map, matted on a wall, are not getting exposure to an accurate model of measuring the world. I know when I was in public school, we were used to looking at mostly flat, wall maps. The curvature gives a person viewing this a great representation of the degrees in which these land masses are situated on the globe.
Seth Dixon's curator insight, September 11, 2013 7:55 AM
While the web mapping world still relies too much on the Mercator projection for my preference, it is a testament to the enduring impact that his ideas have had in literally shaping our World. When discussing map projections, this article has some valuable materials.
Don Brown Jr's comment, October 1, 2012 9:18 PM
Objects, ideas and land can have multi overlapping meanings that are constantly being reinterpreted by each succeeding generation creating new symbolic understandings that overlap into many societies and cultures.
Rebecca Farrea's curator insight, November 8, 2013 9:16 AM
Neil MacGregor, the Director of the British Museum, explains Middle Eastern history using the Cyrus Cylinder. His first point in this TED talk is especially interesting because he explains that people age and perish and objects do the same, but objects such as this cylinder survive and are able to tell important stories of history for a much longer time than people normally can.
's comment, September 17, 2012 10:19 AM
This is very interesting because I had no idea that the United States had gone under such transformation. Even within certain borders, there is much change in respect to who the area belongs to. You definitely have to watch it a few times to get the full affect though.
Lindsey Robinson's comment, September 17, 2012 10:21 AM
Although the moving image makes it hard to actually pinpoint the U.S expansion at specific dates, I don't think that is the point of the map. The point of the map is to show how many times territories have changed, etc. I really like the map.. I have never seen anything like it.
Jesse Gauthier's comment, September 17, 2012 10:42 AM
The United States has changed drastically through the years with state borders, but I noticed that the regions' labels of the country are still similar today. For example, the southwest is much more divided today but still classified as a region with plenty of Spanish culture.
