CGG announced Wednesday that it has been awarded both a land seismic and an airborne gravity survey by InterOil Corporation to assess the hydrocarbon potential of their acreage in Papua New Guinea.
CGG's airborne group is to conduct a large FALCON Airborne Gravity Gradiometer (AGG) survey to acquire 6,835 line miles (11,000 line kilometers) of high-resolution data with fixed-wing aircraft and 15,969 line miles (25,700 line kilometers) using rotary-wing aircraft, better suited to acquiring high-resolution measurements in the rugged terrain.
The 2D conventional land seismic award comprises a 289 mile (465 kilometer) survey in InterOil's southern PPL474 and 476 permits (the Murua survey) and may include additional coverage totalling in excess of 124 miles (200 kilometers) to the north over their Triceratops and Raptor discoveries. To ensure robust operations in challenging operating conditions CGG will deploy 2,100 Sercel UNITE cable-free channels and autonomous seismic source technology during the two-part survey which is due to start in January and end in August. CGG's Bangkok imaging center will process the land seismic data as part of the integrated service CGG is offering InterOil.
Jean-Georges Malcor, CEO, CGG, said: "CGG was a natural choice for these surveys given the long-term partnership we have developed with InterOil in the Asia-Pacific region over the last seven years. The awards also recognize both our ability to supply a fully integrated exploration solution and our capability to tightly integrate the interpretation using both the airborne geophysics and the land seismic data into a "Basin in a Box" multi-physics solution which will be highly beneficial to InterOil. They are an excellent example of how CGG's unique range of fully integrated products and services can successfully come into play and bring significant added value to our clients' exploration challenges."

ibertia! You are just like us Young Humans. Each generation is so reluctant to leave a save seed coat provided by mama. Maybe now? No. Now? No.
It is among the top hard-to-germinate genera (Hidayati 2012). The coat is thick and woody. The seed has to undergo a process of growth inside the coat. At some point it is so tight and cramped that it pops out and live on its own producing butter flowers. Many of them to see in Kings Park Botanic Park at this moment:

We have three levels of support for the dinner, Platinum at $500, Gold at $200, and Silver at $100.
Feed a Family of Four for $22.00
A donation of $22.00 will feed two adults and two children. Help if you can! Click here to donate. Under "Choose a Fund" in the dropdown menu labeled "select a fund," scroll down and select "Community Dinner."
Feeding 700 people and all of our entertainers is a daunting task. Mildred Council, from Mama Dip's Kitchen, will coordinate the menu and, together with the Carolina Inn, will provide the basis of the Dinner's main course. We will need additional food and again this year we are hoping to get many local restaurants and businesses involved in this celebration.

Your contribution is tax deductible, and, as a participant you will be recognized as a contributor in all our publicity, on our website and at the Dinner. The event will be held on Sunday, April 10, 2016, at 1:00 pm in the McDougle Schools Cafeteria in Carrboro.
The Community Dinner is not a fundraising but a community building event and our fiscal agent is The Orange County Department of Human Rights and Relations.

New UK digital platform to highlight academic excellence
The University of Sheffield is one of three leading UK research-intensive universities to set up a new open access digital platform to publish scholarly articles across the academic disciplines. Sheffield has joined forces with the universities of Leeds and York to establish the White Rose University Press (WRUP) universitypress.whiterose.ac.uk which opened for submissions this week. It will publish peer-reviewed academic papers, books, textbooks, and conference literature from across the academic community both in the UK and internationally. Online access to all the published material is free to all readers. A partnership of the three universities libraries developed WRUP with three key objectives: Supporting open access: With its output free to readers in digital form, WRUP hopes to reach a global audience, some of whom may have hitherto faced challenges accessing scholarly materials behind subscription paywalls; Ensuring academic quality: WRUPs distinguished editorial board, drawn from academics across the three universities, will oversee a rigorous process of peer-review and quality control ensuring that intellectual quality is paramount; Creating new opportunities for publishing: As well as publishing traditional books and journals, WRUP intends to support scholars working in specialist areas, or publishing in non-traditional forms such as short-form monographs, data journals, or interactive ebooks, which have been overlooked by commercial publishers.
White Rose University Press is dedicated to open access publishing of high quality academic books, textbooks, journals, and conference proceedings. Our subject scope reflects the broad range of disciplines supported by our parent Universities, including arts and humanities, social sciences, science and technology, engineering, and medicine. Our goal is to disseminate scholarly outputs as widely as possible, by making our digital publications free at the point of access.

Handy for Paris and VersaillesPosted Dec 29, 2015
Pros: Breakfast buffet = excellent Staff = friendly and professional
Cons: The only thing I can think of is that the shower unit is a little tired, it took some positioning so that it sprayed on yourself rather than the wall.
Location: Nice quiet area but very handy access to major roads. We visited Paris and Versailles and a couple of nearby major shopping centres.
We (two adults and two small children - and our small dog) stayed here for three nights. We used the hotel as a base for our trips to Paris, Versailles and surrounding areas using both our own transport and the railway. Staff are very friendly and attentive both on reception and in the restaurant. The breakfast buffet is one of the best I have seen in a hotel chain in France and in fact tops most buffets I've been to in this price class. A wide range of breakfast foods well presented and of good quality. Rooms are clean and tidy and were kept that way during our stay.

Fantastic hotelPosted Sep 8, 2015
Pros: Location Staff Facilities
Location: Don't know as we were only passing through.
We had an overnight stay here on our journey to the South of France and on our return. As a family of 5 we stayed in two connecting rooms. Fantastic hotel, staff very friendly and helpful. Children loved the pool on our return journey when weather was very hot. Great location, nice and quiet but only a short drive to motorways. Huge choice at breakfast for everyone. Rooms clean and spacious even with sofa bed in use. Would highly recommend this hotel for an overnight stay or longer. Will definitely be booking again for next year.

Jenoptik Completes 5-year Defense Frame Agreements With US Government
- Within the scope of the two contracts Jenoptik will supply spare components for the Patriot integrated air and missile defense system.
The agreements have a value of more than 35 million US dollars (32.5 million euros) and were contracted with the US Government. They include the delivery of spare parts for electric generators, which provide energy to the defense system, as well as engine kits, reset kits and recapitalization kits for the Patriot systems. The kits keep the power generating equipment in operational condition and thus support the US Army Communications Electronics Command (CECOM) maintenance program.
Jenoptik develops and produces the components in the United States at its El Paso (Texas) site and in Germany at its Altenstadt (Bavaria) site. The orders will contribute to revenue and earnings of Jenoptik's Defense & Civil Systems segment for 2016 and up to 2021.
Global Military UAV Market Forecast to 2022
Raytheon's Global Patriot Solutions is providing comprehensive protection against a full range of advanced threats, including tactical ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. Patriot is continually upgraded and enhanced to leverage the latest technology. Thirteen nations depend on Patriot as the foundation for their defense.

Can you tell me how you would answer this question? My teacher says that one answer is correct but I think that my answer is correct. I want a second opinion.
A soccer coach purchases 12 uniforms for 17.50 each. He buys 6 soccer balls for 8.58. How much did he spend in all?
I think that the answer should be solved by multiplying 12 times 17.50 and then addind 8.58 as the word each is only implied to uniforms and not the balls. My teacher has that you should assume the balls cost 8.58 each.
Which is the right answer?
Although the question is poorly worded, I agree with the teacher. The word "each" is implied but not stated in the case of soccer balls. You can't buy soccer balls for $1.43 each.
Strictly speaking, you are right.

When your company's Procore Administrator requests to enable the ERP Integrations tool in Procore (see Request to Enable the ERP Integrations Tool), your Procore point of contact turns the feature ON for your company. During the implementation process, data from your integrated ERP system is imported into Procore. At this time, the system also updates the 'Cost Types Configuration' page (which is visible under 'Administrative Settings' in the Company level Admin tool), so that it includes the 'Standard Categories' area for your specific ERP system.
For many popular cost accounting systems, a category is way to classify costs based on the nature of the cost (e.g., Labor, Material, Overhead, Overtime, and so on). However, not all third-party systems support the category concept. Depending on the ERP system that has been integrated with Procore, the 'Standard Categories' that appear in the Company level Admin tool's 'Cost Types Configuration' page and the Project level Admin tool's 'Cost Code Category Assignments' page will operate differently:
When your company account is configured to use the Dexter + Chaney Connector, cost categories and their corresponding abbreviations are imported into Procore's Company and Project level Admin tools from your Spectrum project(s). They appear in the Company level Admin tool in the Spectrum Standard Categories/Procore Cost Types page (which is accessed under the 'Administrative Settings' menu by clicking the Cost Types Configuration link). Any modifications the 'Spectrum Standard Categories' list must always made in the integrated Spectrum project.
They also appear in the Project level Admin tool in the 'Cost Code Category Assignments' page (which is accessed under 'Project Settings'). The system only imports project-specific cost codes from Spectrum (In Procore, under Project Settings, click 'Cost Codes'). These codes are imported at the same time the Spectrum project is imported as a Procore project. Any modifications to the 'Cost Code Category Assignments' must always made in the integrated Spectrum project.
When your company account is configured to use the Sage 300 CRE Connector, cost categories and their corresponding abbreviations are imported into Procore from your Sage 300 CRE system. The categories appear in the Company level Admin tool, under 'Administrative Settings', on the Contract Configuration page. Any modifications to the labels and abbreviations in the 'Sage 300 CRE Standard Categories' list must be made in the integrated Sage 300 CRE system and then imported into Procore.
After the cost codes and categories from Sage are imported to the Company level of Procore, you can then add your Sage 300 CRE Cost Codes to a Procore project. One the codes are added you can navigate to the Project level Admin tool. Under 'Project Settings', its important to ensure that each Sage 300 CRE cost code is updated in Procore with a cost code category assignment. For instructions on the required tasks, see Add Sage 300 CRE Standard Cost Codes to a Project.
When the ERP Integrations tool is configured for QuickBooks, categories are NOT utilized in Procore. This is because QuickBooks does not support the 'Categories' concept. It is also important to note that QuickBooks 'Classes' are not equivalent to Procore 'Categories'.
As such, the 'Contract Configuration' page under 'Administrative Settings' in the Company level Admin tool will contain a 'QuickBooks Standard Categories' list with a single line item labeled 'Other.' This category has no other affect on your Procore + QuickBooks project.

President of the European Council Donald Tusk has said he will issue draft Brexit negotiating guidelines to the other member states within 48 hours of the United Kingdom triggering article 50; in other words, before the end of next week.
The Pound Sterling fell half a cent against the dollar on what Brexit minister David Davis described as a move taking Britain to "the threshold of the most important negotiation for this country for a generation". Prime Minister Theresa May will invoke Article 50 of the key European Union treaty, the official start of the two-year divorce process.
The announcement on the timing of Article 50 comes shortly after European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker warned that Britain may have to abandon its hopes of a trade deal if it rejects the terms offered by the EU - which are widely expected to include a "divorce bill" of as much as £50 billion.
The Prime Minister's letter officially notifying the European Council of the UK's intention to quit will set in train a two-year negotiation process expected to lead to Britain leaving the EU on March 29 2019.
Commission spokesman Margaritis Schinas said Monday that "we have been informed in advance". After that, the European Union will need another few weeks to turn those guidelines into a formal negotiating mandate for Michel Barnier, who will lead the day-to-day talks for the bloc. All that is happening is that Britain is following the terms set down in the Lisbon Treaty to trigger formal exit talks.
In response to the news, Mr Tusk tweeted: "Within 48 hours of the United Kingdom triggering Article 50, I will present the draft Brexit guidelines to the EU27 Member States".
May's closest advisers had been weighing up whether to trigger Article 50 earlier in the month, aware that it would be seen as bad form in European capitals to overshadow this weekend's 60th anniversary celebrations of the signing of the Treaty of Rome.
The British government has insisted the Brexit process is irreversible once Article 50 is triggered, although experts have said there is no legal ban on member states changing their minds before they have actually left the European Union.
"The government is clear in its aims", Davis said.
September 18, 2014: Scottish voters decide in a referendum to remain part of the United Kingdom rather than become an independent country.
Dr White said the Bills, dealing with issues such as immigration procedures, would be on top of the Great Repeal Bill, which will incorporate European Union law into British law. May received permission from the Parliament Houses last week to begin the negotiations.
"The taoiseach has previously expressed impatience over the lack of clarity from Britain on Brexit", said Mr Adams.
"We think the imminent activation of Article 50 will trigger hard trade negotiations, which is not properly priced into the currency", Michael Cahill, New York-based strategist at Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note to clients. With more than five years' experience as a financial market analyst and trader, he focuses on both fundamental and technical analysis while conducting macroeconomic commentary.

Admiring The Hilarity Of The Invisible LOLCat

Fine. Fine. I'll admit that LOLCats still make me laugh. Juvenile? Sure. Still funny. Call me "internet old fashioned" but a good cat picture and caption can still elicit a chuckle better than an "FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU" comic.
Among my favorites, I guess you can say the ones that make me LOL the most, are of the invisible variety. Invisible text break-up is awesome. Only because I've been there. Happened to my cat. He's moved on but the cut still runs deep.
Here is a gallery of my favorite invisible LOLCats. Judge if you must but laugh you will.

It's not easy being a literary citizen these days. On one hand, writers are so cheap and entitled that we bitch about two-dollar submission fees. On the other hand, we're brainwashed marketing drones manipulated by evil corporate overlords. So, in episode 51 the WITTScasters pour a few stiff shots of reality. Then, as a chaser, the boys enjoy the hardboiled first chapter of Benjamin Black's The Black-Eyed Blonde.

Reading Discussed
- In The Black-Eyed Blonde, Benjamin Black (John Banville's nom-de-hardboiled-plume) sends Raymond Chandler's world-weary sleuth Philip Marlowe out into lonely LA on one more case. The first chapter is available as a PDF on Banville's homepage-de-plume.
- "Literary citizenship" is getting a lot of press these days, but not all of it's positive. In Salon, Becky Tuch explains why she detests it.
- The movie The Improv: 50 Years Behind the Brick Wall (now streaming on Netflix) made Jon realize that stand-up comedy is a purely audience-driven art-form.
- Ben guessed the sixties. Jon guessed the fifties, or forties. Brian wisely abstained. The Iowa Writers' Workshop began in 1936.
- Did Ben really teach introductory rhet/comp at Purdue? If so, shouldn't he know that when you oversimplify someone's argument and then attack that oversimplified argument it's called a straw man?
- Better lube up the scroll wheel on your mouse if you want to see how many graduate and undergraduate creative writing programs there are.
- The "why do we have to pay to submit online?" conversation has been going on for a while now. Here's The Missouri Review's take from two-and-a-half years ago. Perhaps the most interesting point: top-tier journals like TMR see submission fees less as a revenue stream and more as a way to slow down the stream of submissions.
- If you hope to go pro as an Upslope-drinking-basketball-watcher, you'll need versatility.
- Go on an alimentary adventure with Mary Roach in Gulp.
- Instead of the colonoscopy, Brian opted for John Banville's short fiction collection Long Lankin.
- Here's the John Banville interview in The Paris Review that so delighted Brian.
- Benjamin Black's not the only writer breathing new life into other authors' characters. Check out Porter Shreve's The End of the Book, which, in part, follows Sherwood Anderson's George Willard out of Winesburg, Ohio.
- For a second straight episode, the conversation wandered into Ben's "Skunk Hour" bear trap! His mind's not right.
- In The Guardian, Elizabeth Edmondson takes a break from writing genre fiction to complain about the terms "genre fiction" and "literary fiction."
- In this Interview Magazine, uh, interview, Zadie Smith explains that even with all the other competing mediums we have today, a contemporary novel will still feel "necessary" if its "sentences [are] necessary."

Melancholy is that tool used by the Ever-Existent whose allege is to make you use make somewhere your home areas of the understanding which remained uninhabited. It is entirely like the understanding is used in total that it starts expanding, which is its true animals, to extend and ensue. Like the understanding is in prison in a esteem cone-shaped tool to the exclusion of everything exceedingly it mutates and becomes ghastly. The understanding appeal a genuine dash of mental set-up or put into practice to aid its movement and hit its full promising which is to become not entirely virtually what ones sees as the Heavenly, but become the Heavenly itself.
Right the Heavenly is the closing standpoint in the continual be conveyed of development.

"Whatever of weight is limited to a small area in any other religion is eternally to be found in Hinduism, and what is not limited to a small area in it is intangible or awkward."
"Hinduism is virtually the Ganga, callow and unmarked at its amount but spoils in its course the impurities in the way. Arranged virtually the Ganga it is beneficent in its count effect. It takes a conservative form in every pasture, but the inner weight is retained everyplace."

Weiner took up art history at Vassar College, where she became interested in ruins and souvenirs. This curiosity can be seen in her trinket-flecked collection which started with a pair of earrings with a bird, gun and a heart. She made 20 sets of those earrings, signed up for a craft fair in Philadelphia, and walked away with $600.
After that first earring design, things took off quickly for Erica. She honed her design and production skills as a theatrical costumer and sample maker in the fashion industry. Over the years and throughout her travels, she gathered a collection of charms and developed a line of jewelry with an emphasis on craftsmanship and affordability. The collection grew exponentially, as did her fan base. Her biggest break came in 2005 when she got an order for 10,000 necklaces from an Anthropologie buyer.
Erica Weiner collections
Erica Weiner jewelry pieces are popular for their playful designs. The Sweetheart necklace series comes with witty inscriptions and can be customized with anything you want to write on either side. Each vintage heart necklace has a 15-inch chain and a brass clasp.
The Heartbeats necklace features some quotable lyrics from R. Kelly, Fleetwood Mac, Shaggy, Rayvon, Dolly Parton, and other artists stamped on a 1-inch wide heart charm. The Heartbeats necklace is available in two finishes: oxidized matte silver plate or glossy 14K gold plate. Chains are around 16 inches — which makes these necklaces perfect for layering with medium-length and longer chains.
Most of Weiner's earrings are made with 14K gold-plated brass hooks, but she also creates gold-filled and sterling silver posts for customers with sensitive skin.
Packing materials are reused and mailers are 90% post-consumer paper and 100% recyclable. Weiner uses clear plastic-like bags that are made from corn technology and are biodegradable and compostable. About half of the Weiner collection is vintage, dead stock and re-purposed. The company offsets 300% of its carbon output through www.carbonfund.org. And most importantly, each piece is handmade in New York City.
Erica Weiner donates 5% of all after-tax profits to charity.

archive: monthly vs. numeric
I'm trying to find out how to undo the monthly archive scheme. I reset the permalink structure to numeric and re-specified the sidebar archive display setting from ('type=monthly') to ('type=numeric'). I then uploaded an xml feed with no date references. One of the articles appeared on the home page as "Latest", but nothing was listed under "Archives" in the sidebar.
What I want to accomplish is a list of posts under "Archives" so they can be selected by title. I am presenting 1 post per page so that only one will print. It would also be useful to be able to include a link somewhere on the page to the 'next' or 'previous' article (as in Serendipity).
If I'm stuck with monthly archives it would be useful to be able to access more than one post per month or category without displaying all on one page.
I got the impression from other discussions that it may be possible to reset the archive setting by going to the generic theme or by editing .htaccess.
Suggestions, please??

JOSH MAY '17 This election cycle we seem to have discovered a desire to "make America great again." This is a fine goal, but Donald Trump is woefully inadequate if we actually want to achieve it. Indeed, the same is true for all of the potential Republican nominees. What we truly require is a rad ical revolutionary willing to stand up in the face of oppression in the same way our founding fathers did all of those years ago. What we need, surprisingly enough, is Bernie Sanders. Consider this: the core of our conservative principles is the very idea of the American Dream, the idea that you can work hard from any background and still be successful in the United States. Even Senator Marco Rubio, one of the primary contenders for the establishment GOP, has said that "we have never been a nation of haves and have-nots. We are a nation of haves and soon-to-haves, of people who have made it and people who will make it. And that's who we need to remain." Unfortunately, rather than remaining a bastion of opportunity, the United States has increasingly robbed its citizens of those opportunities. While the wealthiest one percent have seen their wealth grow in leaps and bounds, the average middle class Americans have

LUBNA SHERIEFF '16 Emotion is necessary in modern politics, if only to show that politicians have courage and convictions. The monotone voices in parliament, evening news and print exhausts me. I am tired of politicians discussing issues so vital to humanity, issues serious and deserving of emotion, as though they are discussing dinner. I am tired of the redundant patterns of speech they employ repetitive party lines, gaffs and insults. I am tired of knowing that they are often reading off a teleprompter or pre-written lines.
Frustration, anger, dismay - emotion - arises from suffering, which many politicians have experienced little of. It is unreasonable to expect every Abbott, Clinton and Rasmussen to abandon their grey, fitted suits and white collars and live in squalor. But it is possible to accept, and then demand, the role of emotion in our discourse. Politicians need to find their empathy again. They must destroy their constructed, cookie-cutter shells, and removed manner. They must quit prattling rehearsed lines with neither courage nor conviction. They must say what they truly think, feel, and want to share in public opinion in the few years their opinions have value. It is possible to furious yet collected. Distressed yet coherent. Hopeful yet practical.
I want passion. I want strength in voices. I want shouting. I want vicious, forceful words spilling out of mouths racing to keep momentum with anger. I want intonation. I want the passion to return to politics. I want what politics to be what it was, not what it has become. How are politicians able to discuss war, homelessness, the refugee crisis, poverty, mental illness and diseases like they are commenting on the weather? Perhaps it is because we, as a society, dede grade emotion in its purest form and see anyone who displays it as a weak. We see anger as our cue to raise eyebrows and turn away, tears as a point to glance pityingly and turn away, and anything in between that doesn't fall under the everyday monotone as excessive. But it is also much more serious than that. Politicians fail to express emotion because they have exhausted the most crucial emotion: empathy. Political discourse has been reduced to a rigid structure, where it is
PHILIP JAEGGI-WONG '17 I wouldn't say that we're blind. In fact, it may very well be that we see all too well. We're spatial prisoners—relying too much on our sight and setting too much store by it. We forget the reality beyond that which we can see. My family has more than once considered moving to Switzerland, which , by the way, would be more than agreeable to me. I have so many amazing memories of that place, and in any case I can't imagine being stressed there, or being sleep-deprived, or unhappy in any sense. It's a perfect land, filled with idyllic images of the surreal and quaint—Heidi and the horn, Le-

the Matterhorn, Lederhosen and Lake Geneva, Mailanderli and the Basel Spalenberg—and it seems to me that living there would be perfect as well. And yet we know viscerally that it won't be, at least not quite. There'll be thoroughly enjoyable things about it, undoubtedly, but not to the extent that I might imagine them. So why not? All of us have in our minds, I think, a vivid image of that opening movie scene, where the camera pans down on this perfect little neighborhood, the sun shining over the housetops and through the trees—the leaves are bright green, and there's just the right amount of shade—the lawn's neatly mown, and the kids are outside laughing, jumping around, somehow despite everything not getting grass stains on their pants. And to a viewer it seems entirely and unattainably pleasing. But in reality, it's not so very much different from what we see everyday. So why doesn't it quite look the same? Bringing up in my mind for a moment the image of the actual screen during such a movie, it's firstly striking that the projection is a rectangle, with straight edges and square corners. We don't see what's on one side or the other. There's no peripheral vision in these scenes. We don't see the guy down the street stressing over his next paycheck, or the kid who's worried for his AP Chem exam, or the mother who has errands to run all day. All we see is what's happening right in front of us. And that's just it. See, if I'd live in Switzerland I'd never see it the way I see that image in my head. I wouldn't be looking. I'd be busy—on my way to some event, waiting in line for
something, struggling to stay awake, eating, sleeping, worrying over some deadline or paper or something. That's what we do. We work looking forward, thinking there'll be a time to rest, to look back and gather up all this perfected work and cash it in. But there won't be that time. It's never going to happen, and things are never going to change. The only way is to live for now, to look at what's right in front of us and enjoy that for what it's worth.
DAIWEI ZHANG '17 We've all done it. You're sitting in class, unun imaginably bored, and suddenly you feel the familiar weight in the pocket. You feel that familiar urge to reach in your and check……………… yep, you guessed it, your cell phone. Quickly, while the teacher isn't looking, you take that moment to pull out your phone to get yet another quick fix of the ubiquitous drug of entertainment. For more than a decade schools have opposed policies allowing or encouraging students to have cell phones in school. The general opinion for most school boards, including our own, has been that on a day-to-day basis they are disruptive to the educational environment. However, with increasing educational capabilities tucked inside the common smartphone the opinion of phone usage at school has changed dramatically. Perhaps it is time to recede into the ways of old and once again limit the use of cell phones. "Disruptions to the educational environment" takes on a whole new meaning at a boarding...

... school such as UWC, where most interactions are intended to be an educational experience. While smartphones have many practical uses- especially on an ethnically diverse campus- like finding the translations of words or keeping up with school activities, they also inhibit the potential for effec tive face-face interaction among peers. I cannot count how many times I have been asked to repeat myself because my conversation was directed at the top of someone's head instead of their face which was, instead of looking at my extravagant face, staring down at his/her crotch. Instead of face to face interaction an increasing number of students are deciding that it is in their best interests to browse the superfluous stream of data that is still readily available at a later time. Unfortunately, the problem of cell phones during conversation extends even further that just the individual. The mere presence of a phone on the table or in the peripherals of another individual changes both what they talk about and the level of conversation they have says a researcher at the Pew Research center. As a result of the presence of one cell phone, members of a conversation feel that the attention of the other member(s) of the conversation is divided, resulting in reluctance to delve into any subject into greater detail. Additionally, by incorporating a cell phone into any real life interac tion, you automatically create an environment where others around you feel it is okay to use their own digital devices, further detracting from proper conversation. Let's be honest. Cell phones have great potential as learning and socializing tools; however, the use of cell phones on campus has detracted from social environment at UWC by leaching away essential conversational skill. This is our moment to acknowledge not only the unintended consequences of the technologies to which we are vulnerable, but also recognize that we can make a change. We have time to make corrections to our deep seated habits and remember that
face to face interaction can be just as, if not more beneficial than life through a cell phone screen. I'm not asking you to give up your life. I'm asking that you pay attention to what's in front of you instead of what's resting on your crotch.
...others Sanders plan actually would leave the federal budget running a surplus, such that the U.S. could actually begin shrinking the deficit instead of growing it. These appeal to the principal pillars of the Republican ideology, fiscal responsibility, the promotion of economic growth, and the preservation of the American Dream.

... essays and blogs claiming that the progressive and extremely liberal ideas of the IB are dangerous for the American youth. While it's true that most of the educators that created the IB were socialists, this doesn't mean that the IB's aim is to create a bunch of socialist student– It's not like a lot of us support Bernie Sanders or something like that, right ? The history of the IB is long and complicated. It all started when the League of Nations founded the International School of Geneva (Ecolint) in Switzerland in 1924. The school was founded with the purpose of enabling the mobility of families in the diplomatic sector, multinational business and intergovernmental agencies. Since then, the UNESCO has made several modifications to the educational project, but it wasn't until the 1960's that some teachers at Ecolint started to advocate for a curriculum reform. Finally, in March of 1965, over forty educationalist from across Europe gathered in Geneva and created what we know and love today: International Baccalaureate. The problem (depending on your perspective), is that this curriculum was created fifty one-years ago and has never been modified. Since its conception, the IB has had CAS, EE, and TOK. All the changes have been minor and the IB has always advocated "multicultural understanding and the promotion of different cultures". This revolutionary program was based on the ideals of Kurt Hahn, who had a lot of contact with UNESCO and the UN. Although it may seem like a wonderful idea, the people that created it also had U.S Universities in mind. The people that sponsored the development, and who were most interested in the IB, were parents concerned about the future of their children. They made it the IB's focus to prepare students for Ivy league schools in the U.S. During the 1960's there was a pedagogical revolution. The traditional methods ofs now
education were being questioned, and people realized that an education system based on memorizing encyclopedic knowledge was very stupid. Instead, the most knowledgeable people in the field came up with a new theory that became the foundation of the IB. What was considered the most important research at that time was conducted by Vygotsky and Piaget, who created the pedagogical framework for the IB using their theories of cognitive development and constructivism. According to them, knowledge is created in the pupil's mind rather than transferred from teacher to student. Among other things, they were saying that the rote learning procedures used in the twentieth century lacked depth, which made it hard for students to connect what they were learning in the classroom to the things they would later encounter in the real world.. Most of usalready know what this feels like, and you have probably struggled to stay awake in boring classes at one point or another while wondering if what you were learning was useful. Well, I have bad news for you: most pedagogues now agree that that education system is a failure and that we all wasted a small part of our childhoods learning stuff that we had to re-learn anyways once we got into high school. The educationalist that realized that the education system was a failure implemented the new method of teaching, or at least they tried to. The people at Ecolint used the name of the theory but not the theory itself. The The IB documents that explain what the IB education is are everything but science. The IB documents are plagued with the term "development of skills" without really explaining what it means or how to do it. The ideas of the constructivism theorywere revolutionary during their time, but we should wonder why there still hasn't been any reform in the science behind the IB. This can also apply to individual subjects in which the curriculum doesn't seem to change much despite clear indications that it should. It's alarming that the constructivism theory has been proven to be an inefficient way of
9 2/25/2016
... teaching, and that it is still being referenced. In truth, nobody has really supported the theory again , since its publication in the 1960.Once the IB started using it, scientists realized it was inefficient. The problem with the theory is that it advocates for a learning sustained by the student's passions and interest in the subject. It leads students to acquire knowledge in a very disorganized way, and also makes things confusing for many students whose misunderstandings are never corrected or properly addressed. Moreover, the IB didn't even copy the theory correctly. The constructivism method of teaching can be beneficial for some students and in some subjects – but it's not always the case. The IB is criticized by some people because it doesn't follow the theory's main ideas. In a true constructivist education a teacher should give freedom to the student to learn by himself or herself. Therefore, the role of the teacher would be thatof a supportive mentor who makes sure you are learning what you want and gives you guidance on the subject. We all know that this is not how the IB works. Instead, it has a static syllabus and gives little freedom to the teacher regarding the question of what to teach and how to assess what has been learned. This can cause problems in places like UWC, where the mission of the school and curriculum differ a lot. Why is then that the IB claims to be using the constructivist method ? Well, mostly because it sounds nicer to say that you have a "newer" method of teaching. This disorganized way of learnlearn ing, mixed with an assessment system that is very linear, is the perfect formula for chaos. In today's education systems , the question is no longer: What's the best system of education? Instead, people ask themselves which one is the most rigorous. The most rigorous is not always the best one, but it's the one that universities pay most attention to. This may be good if you want to go to a "top school", but, it's very bad if you want the best education. The IB is still seen as
one of the "best" educational systems, but there are other options that give more freedom to the student and encourage potential at a greater scale. The IB may be a good option if you have a lot of money and can afford any of the thousands of tutors online that specialize in recognizing the patterns that the IB uses in their exams. In other words, the IB has become the new SAT. With the IB, every student has a different level of opportunities. If you have paid for an expensive IB education pre-high school, you will do better. If you can buy the dozen of course companions that focus on how to get the best marks, you will do well, but if you are a creative person that likes to learn by yourself the IB just mightl be your ultimate nightmare.
