In the latest scorching sci-fi movie ‘Sunshine’ set in the backdrop of the year 2057, the ‘real space age’ humans deliver a thermonuclear payload into the dying Sun in hope to bring it back to life. While writing this post, I feel a little contented that the time is still ripe for me to share these incredible ideas with flights of fancy powered by none other than the Sun. The technology behind solar powered aircraft is still in its infancy, we’ll have to wait for quite a lot of time to see them available commercially. Till then check out these birds: 12. SUNSEEKER Designer: Eric Raymond Eric gave shape to Sunseeker after years of hard work, changes and innovations on wings of Larry Mauro’s SOLAR RISER, Paul MacCready’s SOLAR CHALLENGER, and Gunther Rochelt’s MUSCULAIR II. The project kicked off in 1986 and was given the final shape in 1989-90 with help of Sanyo and other corporations. 11. SOLONG Designer: AC Propulsion Type: UAV Weight: 10.8 kg ‘SoLong’ stands apart by flying continuously for over 24 hours by battery and solar power. 10. Solar-Powered Robot Bird Designer: University of Missouri-Rolla Flying Altitude: 30,000 to 40,000 feet Unique features: World’s first flapping-wing unmanned solar aircraft This solar-powered bird is literally an eagle and apparently is world’s first flapping-wing unmanned aircraft that runs on solar energy. Designed by researchers at the University of Missouri-Rolla with the help of NASA, the aircraft uses thin-film solar arrays and special shape changing material hence making it more flexible and efficient than the Mars Rovers. It can regain its altitude, up to 30,000 to 40,000 feet, by simply flapping its wings and is a perfect flying machine to inspect outer space. 9. SOLITAIR Designer: DLR Institute of Flight Systems Wingspan: 5.2-meter SOLITAIR or Solar Powered Aircraft for High Altitude Long Endurance Flight, is another unmanned, solar powered aircraft or a satellite to be precise, is specifically designed to conduct research activities in northern European latitude. 8. SKY-SAILOR Designer: Swiss Federal institute of Technology Zurich Unique features: Prototype designed for future space search, especially Mars Weight: 2.6 kg Wingspan: 3.2 meters Sky-Sailor was in fact the first step towards designing a feasible solar powered aircraft to study Mars under collaboration with European Space Agency. It is equipped with 216 silicone solar cells delivering up to 90 W of energy. 7. SOLAR CHALLENGER Designer: AeroVironment, Dupont Corporation Weight: 90 kg Wingspan: 14.3 meters Flying Altitude: 12,000 feet Solar Challenger is an improved version of ‘Gossamer Penguin’, designed to fly from Paris to England. The aircraft can reach an altitude of 12,000 feet equipped with 16,128 photovoltaic cells giving a tremendous output power of 2,600 watts. Its success gave way to High Altitude Solar (HALSOL) drone project. 6. PATHFINDER PLUS Designer: AeroVironment, NASA Unique features: Telecommunication platform Flying Altitude: 24470.868 meters Pathfinder Plus is an improved version of Pathfinder and holds a record for touching highest altitude of 24470.868 meters (80, 285 feet). It’s part of NASA’s Environmental Research Aircraft and Sensor Technology (ERAST) and is actually a stratospheric satellite designed to study atmospheric chemical make-up. It combines technologies used to develop Pathfinder, Centurion and Helios solar powered aircrafts. The aircraft also acts as a telecommunications platform that surfs through the stratosphere to deliver wireless broadband, re-transmitted high definition television (HDTV) signal and relay cellular audio and video calls. 5. ZEPHYR Designer: QinetiQ Weight: 14 kg Wingspan: 12 meter Speed: 70 meters per second (155 mph) Zephyr, along with solar power, uses ‘low drag aerodynamics’ to fly for months at an altitude of 132,000 feet. It’s yet another high altitude communication platform with a 12-meter solar cells equipped wingspan churning out 1 kW of power to five motors that drag it to 70 metres per second (155 mph). 4. CENTURION Designer: AeroVironment, NASA Flying Altitude: 100,000 feet Speed: 12.5 mph Centurion takes solar powered aircraft technology to news heights with ultralight flying wing equipped with multiple electric motors that takes it to an altitude of 100,000 feet at 12.5 miles per hour. AeroVironment developed this project along with NASA’s Environmental Research Aircraft and Sensor Technology (ERAST) program, which is sponsored by NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, CA. 3. HELIOS Designer: NASA Speed: 27 mph Wingspan: 247-foot The Helios, though not with us now as it crashed in June 2003, still qualifies for this list with its top cruising speed of 27 mph and the 247-foot wingspan, which in fact is even greater than a 747 Jumbo Jet, 62,000 solar cells and 14 brushless direct-current electric motors. 2. PLANET SOLAR Designer: PlanetSolar PlanetSolar is the most geeky solar powered aircraft designed with a purpose. It’s designed like a swan with a long white beak projecting out of a three-hulled body, equivalent to a trimaran, and powered by 1,930 square feet of solar panels. Sill under construction, it will challenge Swiss explorer and scientist Bertrand Piccard by first circumnavigating Earth on solar power challenging natural forces and testing the ultimate machine. 1. SOLAR IMPULSE Designer: Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Bertrand Piccard Flying Altitude: 10 Km Wingspan: 70-meter Solar Impulse too aims to circumnavigate the Earth. The single-pilot solar-powered aircraft comes with 2,700 square feet of monocrystalline solar cells. For those who don’t know, Bertrand Piccard was the first to go around the world on balloon non-stop. Solar Impulse is a glider completely dressed with solar cells and has a whopping 70-meter wingspan. The plane will fly at 10 km altitude non-stop powered by two tail-mounted propeller engines. UPDATE Pls Note: As truly pointed out by a few of our readers, the PlanetSolar, mentioned at No. 2, is not a solar powered aircraft, rather it’s a boat powered by renewable energies.

Marijuana is set to become legal in the nation’s capital with a couple of caveats from Congress: Washington, D.C. will not get funding to tax or regulate the drug, National Journal reports.
On Monday it seemed that legalization wasn’t going to be in the cards for D.C., but when asked, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid admitted that any attempts to block the results of the November legalization vote are unlikely to be successful.
This means that the legalization measure passed with nearly 70 percent support by D.C. voters in the wake of the midterm elections will stand. The drug will be decriminalized in early 2015 for users over the age of 21. For residents caught possessing under an ounce of marijuana, the fine will only be $25 dollars, instead of six months in jail and a $1,000 dollar fine. Police will not be allowed to compel anyone to produce identification. Users are even allowed to produce small amounts of the drug.
Language allowing decriminalization will apparently appear in the omnibus bill on Tuesday which needs to pass before December 12 to avoid a government shutdown. Although D.C.’s mayor-elect Muriel Bowser had intended to treat marijuana just like alcohol in terms of regulation and taxation, it seems that area will still be left to the federal government, since the legislation would prohibit the city from using any funds on regulation.
“If reports are true, members of Congress from both parties bargained away the rights of the people of the District of Columbia and in doing so compromised the core democratic values of the United States,” Kimberly Perry told The Washington Post. Perry runs an organization advocating for residents of D.C. to have federal representation in Congress.
Confirmation of the reports are difficult, as budget negotiators are silent on the matter, saying that nothing is final. But as reported, the current deal represents a compromise between House Republicans, who are concerned that legalization will lead to increase use and abuse of the drug, and Democrats, who seem unwilling to challenge Republicans for a regime allowing the city to regulate and tax.

Fiat announced this week that between 2025 and 2030, their product lineup will gradually become electric only. This will be a radical change for Fiat. They have decided to launch the new 500 — electric and electric alone.
Why is this news is important? Because Fiat, for all of its long and illustrious history as an automaker, has been primarily a purveyor of mass market cars — the vehicles that ordinary people use for ordinary purposes, meaning EVs aren’t just for the wealthy any more. They are for everyday transportation for everyday people who do everyday things..
General Motors too had announced similar plan and said it will go all electric in 2035. Fiat intends on getting there 5 years sooner than that. This, folks, is big news.
The company doesn’t much care about the US passenger car market. But in Europe, where cities are incredibly congested and people normally travel shorter distances each day for them they have introduced a new version of the 500e built on a dedicated EV chassis which will likely also be used for the upcoming Centoventi Concept EV. That concept, for all intents and purposes, is a preview of the next generation Fiat Panda.
For now, Fiat’s focus is on city cars, but in the future it will also develop EVs on the STLA platform used by Stellantis for the Peugeot e-208 and Vauxhall Corsa-e. Sales of the 500e have been red hot in the home market recently.
The company is not just focused on building electric cars. It has plans to address the need for EV chargers in communities with lots of apartments and condominiums and is looking to increase the number of fast-charging points available to customers.

What You Should Know About Tidal Web Player
Tidal is a popular platform that offers streaming services and provides access to millions of songs and a ton of exclusive content. It enables you to watch high-quality music videos, sporting events, and live streaming. Tidal is renowned for its high-fidelity sound quality because it enables users to stream lossless, CD-quality audio. You may access the music on Tidal through its web player in addition to its desktop and mobile applications. Some people who are unwilling to download additional apps would prefer to use a web player to listen to Tidal music. In order to assist you learn everything there is to know about Tidal Web Player and how to download songs from Tidal Web Player for offline listening, we have prepared this content. Read on.
Tidal is a popular music streaming platform that has gained a reputation for its exclusive content and high-quality audio and video streams. Additionally, Tidal provides personalized recommendations, allowing users to discover new music, and offers the best possible audio quality for an immersive listening experience. Three different Tidal subscription packages are provided: Tidal Free, Tidal Hi-Fi, and Tidal Hi-Fi Plus. Using Tidal Free, you can listen to tracks on demand with limited features and advertisements. Subscribing to Tidal's Hi-Fi and Hi-Fi Plus plans for $9.99 or $19.9 per month, you can listen to Hi-Fi and even Hi-res audio files. Moreover, some contents are available in MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) certified.
Users can enjoy Tidal music using a mobile app, Tidal desktop, and the Tidal web player. The web browser makes it simple to browse and stream music, playlists, artists, and albums without downloading any apps. However, it should be noted that utilizing the Web Player will not allow you to get MQA audio quality. In addition, Tidal does not support users to download songs directly from the web player for offline playback.
Many people are interested in the differences between the Tidal desktop app and its web player, particularly its streaming quality. Streaming on a web player and a desktop application is not exactly the same.
A Tidal HiFi membership offers normal lossless audio quality at 1411 kbps, whereas Tidal HiFi Plus offers lossless High Fidelity sound quality at 1411 kbps and Master Quality audio up to 9216 kbps, as well as immersive audio — 360 Reality Audio and Dolby Atmos Music. Tidal collaborated with MQA to ensure that subscribers receive the greatest level of resolution and powerful sound. However, only iOS or Android devices and the Tidal desktop app are allowed to listen to millions of master-quality Tidal songs while the Tidal web player is limited to Tidal Hi-Fi sound quality.
What makes a difference is the RAM. Web players and mobile phones cannot load such large amounts of data simultaneously because lossless high-resolution audio requires more RAM to operate and load. Therefore, if you have relatively high requirements for music sound quality, use the Tidal desktop application rather than the web player or the mobile phone application.
The process for using Tidal Web Player is simple. Follow the step-by-step guide to use Tidal on the web player:

Women’s soccer loses heartbreaker to Louisville in the final minute
Syracuse loses on 90th minute penalty
Everyone at SU Soccer Stadium on Thursday night was reminded just how cruel sports can be. Foul in the box, penalty, top corner, game over. One team lost, another won.
Syracuse women’s soccer lost to the University of Louisville 2-1 after a 90th-minute penalty by Anouk Denton. The last-minute penalty was awarded after freshman center back Emma Klein tackled the Cardinal’s Julia Simon from behind on a loose ball.
“I don’t think anybody plays for a game to end so abruptly with that call,” Syracuse Head Coach Nicky Adams said. “For any team to lose like that you feel gutted.”
Despite the late-game heartbreak, the game was fairly balanced for the other 89 minutes. Louisville played better in the first half before Syracuse found their footing in the second and tried to equalize.
The game started with both teams looking comfortable in midfield. Syracuse threatened to score in the first ten minutes when freshman midfielder Koby Commandant found senior forward Meghan Root running into the box. Root’s shot was deflected high and striker Hannah Pilley couldn’t connect from close range on the rebound.
However, it was Louisville who broke through first with a goal two minutes later from Delaney Snyder. The ball fell to her in the box after a cross from the left was deflected, which she promptly finished into the bottom left corner.
Syracuse had to rely on its two most talented players, Root and freshman midfielder Pauline Machtens, to pull them out of this difficult moment of the game. The two were able to use their quality on the ball to carve open the Louisville defense in transition several times.
But the Orange struggled to turn their play into opportune scoring chances. In the 29th minute, Root beat her defender on the left-wing and let off a shot straight at the keeper.
The second half was tense and provided few clear opportunities for either team. Louisville seemed content to protect their lead, given SU’s first-half struggles to finalize their midfield transition offense.
“If we [could] complete two passes we feel like we’d be able to get in,” Adams said. “We were breaking down either with the first pass or the second pass so we did a much better job in the second half with the transition piece.”
Adams’ predictions paid off in the 67th minute when a sharp pass from freshman defender Kendyl Lauher was able to put Root through on goal. Lauher’s pass may have opened up the field, and created the chance, but Root put plenty of her own quality into the finish with a wonderful chip that fell perfectly onto the back of the net.
The rest of the half featured few real chances as both team’s energy levels waned towards the end of the game. Between the fatigue and the poor weather, a draw seemed almost certain until the moment of the game in the final minute.

Morning Tweets !
I hear them in the morning when I rise
Before the slightest glimpse of light appears
A moment longer I must close my eyes
Their song so sweetly falls upon my ears
The music of their tweets now fills the air
Could man himself create a sweeter sound?
In silence I just want to linger there
And relish as the symphony abounds I know this time of bliss can only last
A while, for soon demands call me away
But I’ll not hurry till the time is past
For now the sounds of birdsong bid me stay So tweet and chirp my friends, for I am blessed
to hear your song as I arise from rest!

By focusing on imaging and delivering medicine to the smallest particles in the human body, researchers have the potential to create ways to better diagnose and treat the system as a whole. It is the rapidly growing field of nanomedicine that makes this possible.
Dipanjan Pan, assistant professor in Bioengineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, recently contributed to the body of knowledge in nanomedicine by editing and writing chapters for the book, “Nanomedicine, a Soft Matter Perspective,” published by CRC Press. The book provides a broad introduction to nanomedicine with an emphasis on imaging and therapeutics.
Pan said he was approached by the publisher after delivering the plenary lecture, “Advances in theranostic nanomedicine: From a chemist's perspective,” at the National Meeting of the American Chemical Society in 2012. That conference featured several high-profile speakers and highlighted the field of nanomedicine — then a $20 billion industry — as “a new direction for disease and treatment.”
The book is purposely written to appeal to “anyone interested in nanomedicine — scientists, patent analysts, intellectual property lawyers, general readers curious about the field,” said Pan. He also expects it will provide value to non-experts interested in drug delivery and molecular imaging with or without any previous knowledge, in addition to serving as a textbook for undergraduate and graduates students in bioengineering and related disciplines.
In addition to editing the text, Pan also contributed three chapters to the book. He co-wrote “Contrast Agents for Computed Tomograpic Imaging” and wrote the introduction chapter and the final perspective chapter, “Nanomedicine: Perspective and Promises.”
Currently Pan also is working with Springer Publishing Company to edit the journal, “Topics in Medicinal Chemistry,” and, for CRC Press, he has agreed to another book, “Synthetic Biology at the Interface of Chemistry and Engineering,” which is expected to be released in 2016.

Repeated fire altered succession and increased fire behavior in basin big sagebrush–native perennial grasslands
The structure and composition of sagebrush‐dominated ecosystems have been altered by changes in fire regimes, land use, invasive species, and climate change. This often decreases resilience to disturbance and degrades critical habitat for species of conservation concern. Basin big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. tridentata) ecosystems, in particular, are greatly reduced in distribution as land has been converted to agriculture and other land uses. The fire regime, relative proportions of shrub and grassland patches, and the effects of repeated burns in this ecosystem are poorly understood. We quantified postfire patterns of vegetation accumulation and modeled potential fire behavior on sites that were burned and first measured in the late 1980s at John Day Fossil Beds National Monument, Oregon, USA. The area partially reburned 11 yr after the initial fire, allowing a comparison of one vs. two fires. Repeated burns shifted composition from shrub‐dominated to prolonged native herbaceous dominance. Fifteen years following one fire, the native‐dominated herbaceous component was 44% and live shrubs were 39% of total aboveground biomass. Aboveground biomass of twice‐burned sites (2xB; burned 26 and 15 yr prior) was 71% herbaceous and 12% shrub. Twenty‐six years after fire, total aboveground biomass was 113–209% of preburn levels, suggesting a fire‐return interval of 15–25 yr. Frequency and density of Pseudoroegneria spicata and Festuca idahoensis were not modified by fire history, but Poa secunda was reduced by repeated fire, occurring in 84% of plots burned 26 yr prior, 72% of plots burned 15 yr prior, and 49% in 2xB plots. Nonnative annual Bromus tectorum occurred at a frequency of 74%, but at low density with no differences due to fire history. Altered vegetation structure modified fire behavior, with modeled rates of fire spread in 2xB sites double that of once‐burned sites. This suggests that these systems likely were historically composed of a mosaic of shrub and grassland. However, contemporary increases in fire frequency will likely create positive feedbacks of more intense fire behavior and prolonged periods of early‐successional vegetation in basin big sagebrush communities.
Historically, the ecotone was a matrix of prairie with extensive savanna and some forest. More than half of the ecotone area was prairie, which is now dominated by agriculture, with some residential development. The 16% of the landscape that was pine savanna is now forest or shrubs, agriculture, perennial vegetation under the Conservation Reserve Program, or developed; no savanna now exists. Forests covered 12% of the ecotone and these are still mostly forest. Fires were historically frequent, occurring on average every 5 to 8 years at most sites. Lightning was not frequent but could likely have been sufficient to ignite fires that could spread readily given the rolling terrain and long fire season. Fire was far more frequent historically than currently. Conservation, restoration, and other ongoing land-use changes will likely result in more continuous vegetation and hence fuel for fires. Lightning and people may ignite fires that therefore spread readily in the future. Understanding the past and potential future of fire in the Palouse Prairie bioregion may help us live with fire while conserving ecological values here and in similar prairie–forest ecotones.
Rick Miller, Professor Emeritus, OSU, discusses the intent and goals of his latest publication, The Ecology, History, Ecohydrology, and Management of Pinyon and Juniper Woodlands in the Great Basin and Northern Colorado Plateau in the Western United States. This includes 1) Describing the the woodlands and the vast variation across the GB and CP, 2) Telling the story of their history and variables influencing woodland expansion and contraction, and 3) Interpretation of the wide variation in responses and the variables influencing ecosystem response to restoration.
Humanity’s fire practices are creating the fire equivalent of an ice age. Our shift from burning living landscapes to burning lithic ones is affecting all aspects of Earth. Presenter is Stephen Pyne.
Integrating anthropogenic factors into regional‐scale species distribution models—A novel application in the sagebrush biome
For this study, we used big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) as a model species to explore whether including human‐induced factors improves the fit of the species distribution models (SDM). Models including fire attributes and restoration treatments performed better than those including only climate and topographic variables. Number of fires and fire occurrence had the strongest relative effects on big sagebrush occurrence and cover, respectively. The models predicted that the probability of big sagebrush occurrence decreases by 1.2% (95% CI: −6.9%, 0.6%) when one fire occurs and cover decreases by 44.7% (95% CI: −47.9%, −41.3%) if at least one fire occurred over the 36 year period of record. Restoration practices increased the probability of big sagebrush occurrence but had minimal effect on cover. Our results demonstrate the potential value of including disturbance and land management along with climate in models to predict species distributions.

There is wide agreement that prescribed fire is essential and under-utilized for restoring and maintaining natural ecosystem function, sustaining native wildlife populations, and mitigating wildfire hazard. There is less agreement on the history of fire, specifically the degree to which historic fire regimes and the natural communities that depend on them are essentially anthropogenic as opposed lightning-initiated as a function of climate and topography. This presentation provides an over-simplified summary of the two positions and present examples of more comprehensive research approaches that embrace data over dogma.
This study used pollen and high-resolution charcoal analysis of lake sediment to reconstruct a 7600 yr vegetation and fire history from Anthony Lake, located in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon. From 7300 to 6300 cal yr BP, the forest was composed primarily of Populus , and fire was common, indicating warm, dry conditions. From 6300 to 3000 cal yr BP, Populus declined as Pinus and Picea increased in abundance and fire became less frequent, suggesting a shift to cooler, wetter conditions. From 3000 cal yr BP to present, modern-day forests composed of Pinus and Abies developed, and from 1650 cal yr BP to present, fires increased. We utilized the modern climate-analogue approach to explain the potential synoptic climatological processes associated with regional fire. The results indicate that years with high fire occurrence experience positive 500 mb height anomalies centered over the Great Basin, with anomalous southerly component of flow delivering dry air into the region and with associated sinking motions to further suppress precipitation. It is possible that such conditions became more common over the last 1650 cal yr BP, supporting an increase in fire despite the shift to more mesic conditions.
This study reviews published studies on reburns in fire-adapted ecosystems of the world, including temperate forests of North America, semi-arid forests and rangelands, tropical and subtropical forests, grasslands and savannas, and Mediterranean ecosystems. To date, research on reburns is unevenly distributed across the world with a relative abundance of literature in Australia, Europe and North America and a scarcity of studies in Africa, Asia and South America. This review highlights the complex role of repeated fires in modifying vegetation and fuels, and patterns of subsequent wildfires. In fire-prone ecosystems, the return of fire is inevitable, and legacies of past fires, or their absence, often dictate the characteristics of subsequent fires.
The Reburn Project was motivated by a need to better understand wildfires as a type of fuel reduction treatment and to assess the impacts of fire suppression on forested landscapes. The original JFSP task statement (Influence of past wildfires on wildfire behavior, effects, and management) was created to inform the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy and to address how past wildfires influence subsequent wildfire spread and severity as well as to evaluate how past wildfires may support different fire management strategies. Our study focused on three study areas, located in the inland Pacific Northwest, central Idaho and interior British Columbia. Each study area was centered on a recent, large wildfire event in montane, forested landscapes.We first evaluated fire-on-fire interactions between past wildfires and subsequent large fire events (see Stevens-Rumann et al. 2016). Next, we created a landscape fire simulation tool that allowed us to explore the impact of fire management on the patterns of forest vegetation and fuels across landscapes. To do this, we created an iterative tool that uses historical ignition and weather data to evaluate potential burn mosaics compared to actual pre-wildfire landscapes under different wildfire management strategies.
We worked with the Navajo Nation Forestry Department to evaluate the historical role of fire on a 50 km2 landscape bisected by a natural mountain pass. The landscape experienced frequent fires from 1644, the earliest fire date with sufficient sample depth, to 1920, after which fire occurrence was interrupted. The mean fire interval (MFI) for fire dates scarring 10% or more of the samples was 6.25 years; there were 13 large‐scale fires identified with the 25% filter with an MFI of 22.6 years. Fire regimes varied over the landscape, with an early reduction in fire occurrence after 1829, likely associated with pastoralism, in the outer uplands away from the pass. In contrast, the pass corridor had continuing fire occurrence until the early 20th century. Fires were synchronized with large‐scale top‐down climatic oscillations (drought and La Niña), but the spatially explicit landscape sampling design allowed us to detect bottom‐up factors of topography, livestock grazing, and human movement patterns that interacted in complex ways to influence the fire regime at fine scales. Since the early 20th century, however, fires have been completely excluded. Fuel accumulation in the absence of fire and warming climate present challenges for future management.

Mastering the Digital Escape
Learn how to create digital puzzles for your students!
What is a Digital Breakout or Escape?
A digital escape uses the same concept of solving a series of clues to unlock locks as the physical escape room does. However, with a digital escape, there is no need for the equipment. All that is necessary is a device connected to the Internet. Most digital breakouts will function better on a notebook computer rather than a phone, although some puzzles are easier to solve using a phone or tablet. The best thing about digital escape puzzles? There is relatively NO cost to putting one together!
HSJA Student-Created Digital Escapes
One of my favorite projects with students this year was collaborating with Mrs. Hamilton's classes to help them create digital breakouts related to books they had read. Mrs. Hamilton asked me to pull books related to WWII from my shelves for students to checkout and read. She wanted them to create something related to the book, but not do the typical book report. It was a challenge! Students had to attempt to solve each other's digital breakouts once they were completed. You can check out some of their digital breakouts with the links below.
Ready for the challenge? The best way to learn what a digital escape is is to experience it for yourself.

A great starter challenge created by Mari Venturino and inspired by James Sanders, Mark Hammons, and BreakoutEDU.com.
Book Digital Breakout
A great way to culminate a book club reading of a book, or to use as an alternative to a book report is to create a digital breakout with the theme of a recently read book. This breakout is based on the book Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys.
Let's Do This! Creating Your Own Digital Breakout Step-by-step
Instructions for Creating a Digital Breakout
- Your breakout needs to be "housed" in a particular place. You can use a variety of tools to create a webpage to house your breakout including Weebly, Google Sites, and even a Google Doc that is saved as an html file and made public.
- If you want to use Smore to create your digital breakout, you can go to https://www.smore.com/students and sign into the TCEA Classroom with the code AV244191, or you can go to Smore and create your own account. This classroom account is associated with a premium account, so you have a few more options under it. Then you can create a new flyer. Consider your subject and try to customize your Smore to "fit" it.
- The first step will be creating your flyer and establishing the scenario. Create a scenario to go with your breakout. Be creative. Many breakouts are created around holidays, the start of school or summer break. Subject area breakouts are a great engaging way to introduce or review a unit.
- Next, you will create your locked Google Form and embed it in your flyer. Click on this link to open a copy of the Google Lock Form. Rename it. Don't worry about completing the form right now, just make a copy and embed it and you will be able to edit it later.
- Remember, you want to make your digital breakout challenging but NOT so frustrating that your participants give up and quit. You CAN hide clues in your locked form and in your flyer.
- Determine the series of clues or puzzles that you will provide in your escape to lead participants to the correct answer for the questions on the locked Google Form. Insert these into your breakout.
- Rubric used with students. Want a copy?
Types of Locks
In a digital breakout, all locks are validation questions in a Google Form.
- 3 and 4 digit locks
- Word Lock
- Directional Lock

A favorite among bicycling enthusiasts, Mike's touts on its web site its singular focus: "We don't sell snowboards, we don't sell kayaks and we don't sell tents. We only sell bikes - you might even say bikes are our life."
The planned, 7,000-square-foot store, adjacent to the on Bernal Avenue, will be the eleventh location for Mike's, which began in 1964 in San Rafael.
Selecting Pleasanton for its latest venture was a natural fit, said a company official.
"A lot of our current customers already live there," said Tony Para, a Mike's Bikes manager who will head up the new store.
"There's a lot of good riding around there, too," he added.
Mike's trademark philanthropic mission, dubbed Africa Projects, collects customers' old bicycles and ships them in containers to the developing countries of Ghana, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Sierra Leone.
Mike's volunteers then meet the bike shipments and work with locals to establish community bike shops, as featured in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5qVHgxCQlI.
Para plans to hire roughly 15 employees for the Pleasanton store, which is expected to open the first week in August.
The new Mike's will offer free weekly service clinics on Wednesdays, and will host group rides for both mountain and road enthusiasts, Para said.
Also planned is a multi-camera, video system that custom-fits customers to bicycles, he said.
Mike's Bikes currently operates in Petaluma, San Rafael, Sausalito, San Francisco, Berkeley, Palo Alto, Los Gatos, Sacramento, Walnut Creek, and San Jose.

News10NBC is learning more about a state trooper with ties to our community who was hit and killed in the line of duty. He was a member of the Shortsville Fire Department before becoming a trooper.
Christopher Skinner was killed Thursday. A truck driver hit him while Skinner was making a routine traffic stop. It happened on I-81 near the Pennsylvania line.
Police say the driver, Almond Upton, said he did it on purpose swerved his truck and hit Skinner, killing him instantly. Officers claim Upton went on to say more confusing comments like, “I was two miles away from the Connecticut border and all of a sudden I’m in Binghamton, New York, being beamed to New York.” Police dogs tracked Upton in a wooded area nearby where he was found naked.
Drew Campbell and Chief Will Slack worked side-by-side with Trooper Skinner when he was a volunteer in Clifton Springs. News10NBC showed them the quotes from the accused driver, Almond Upton.
Chief Will Slack, Clifton Springs Fire Dept. said, "I don't think I’ve ever heard it put that way.”
Drew Campbell, Clifton Springs firefighter, said, “It’s incomprehensible what this guy did.”
State Police say Trooper Skinner was killed when Upton ran him down on I-81 just north of Binghamton. Police say Upton told them he did it intentionally.
When they heard the news, the firefighters in Clifton Springs lowered their flag to half-staff and they remembered their friend.
Chief Will Slack, Clifton Springs Fire Dept., said, “It's heartbreaking the way someone can be there one minute and not the next.”
Campbell said, “He was hard working. He never once said he couldn't help someone for anything.”
Campbell recalled their work through an ice storm in 2002.
Campbell said, “He was by my side the whole time just digging people out of ice and taking down trees and things like this to help the community.”
The suspect, Almond Upton, is in a jail in Binghamton, charged with murder. Police say he does have in Florida.
Governor Cuomo released a statement about Trooper Skinner, saying "Trooper Skinner selflessly dedicated 13 years of his life to the New York State police and his actions have impacted the lives of many."

I haven't had much computer time lately as I have been lost in my studies of smocking. At first I was happy just to learn smocking, as with most anything you soon want to learn more so that is what I have been doing.
I am making a sampler right now, and would like to encourage all of you that do smock or want to learn to smock to take the time to make a sampler. I think this will be a well used tool for me.

Brazil’s Mato Grosso region only planted 79,656 hectares to first-crop cotton, which is down sharply from any time in recent history. The reason? The crop is quickly moving to a second crop, only as yields on a second crop after soybeans have proved near par with the full season crop, which has increased the profitability of the crop. A record 972,830 hectares is estimated by IMEA to be planned for the second crop, which is up over 45% from last year. This gives Mato Grosso a record 1,052,487 hectares of cotton.
The IMEA estimates the seed cotton yield at 277.8 arrobas a hectare, which is expected to produce 1,791,683 tons of lint, or 8,231,883 bales. New gins are being constructed, and new pickers are ordered as the state prepares for this much bigger crop. New growers also face challenges regarding the management of quality.
Seed quality has improved, which is giving the crop a boost from the start. Ginners are upgrading gin yards with paved surfaces, as ginners are forced to improve practices to maintain quality. The Brazilian harvest occurs rapidly, as it is followed by soybean planting, with bales having to be rapidly moved to gin yards. In many cases they will spend some time in the gin yard and need proper management when the wet season returns. The lint is also stored on paved yards on covered pallets. This will increase their challenges as the crop increases. The next big growth area will be in gin and warehouse management, which will require the industry to address the concerns of the insurance industry.
The local index of a 41-4-35 landed Sao Paulo has weakened slightly during the last week, as the Real/USD rate has weakened. The index closed February 7th at 79.52 US cents a lb., down from the January 31st rate of 80.58 cents. The Real/USD rate ended the week at 3.7176. Late season ginning, as we have discussed before, has revealed a mixed quality. Thus, discounted quality offers are now in circulation in export markets.
Brazil exports in January 2019 reached 18.5 billion USD, which reflected the highest level in 30 years and was up 9.1% from a year ago. The data revealed increased sourcing of manufactured goods from Brazil. Top products were oil platforms, airline equipment, and planes and agribusiness products. January cotton exports totaled 108,867 tons, up from year-ago shipments of 79,127 tons. China was again the top export market at 35,466 tons, followed by Bangladesh at 15,349 tons. Brazil export shipments to China in the last three months have totaled over 1.176 million bales, which may be a record.Πηγή: Jernigan Global

Falkland Islands Government sources tonight confirmed reports that former Argentine and Tottenham Hotspur star, Osvaldo Ardiles, was among those injured when a vehicle left the road between Darwin and the military base at Mount Pleasant on Monday evening.
Mr Ardiles, who was thought to be the driver of the rented vehicle, is in the Falkland Islands with former team mate Ricardo Villa to make a documentary for ESPN. Five other people were reportedly in the vehicle, including Ardiles's British-born son,who is leading the TV production team involved.
The accident is believed to have happened around 9pm and prompt action by local emergency services and the British Military led to those involved being flown by helicopter from the accident site to the King Edward Memorial hospital in Stanley, arriving around 9.15pm.
According to information given to MercoPress by a government source, four of the passengers have been released after treatment for minor injuries and another three have been kept at the hospital for further observation. There has been as yet no statement about the extent of injuries received or confirmation of reports that Osvaldo Ardiles was among those detained.
While the exact location of the accident has not yet been confirmed, the road between Darwin and Mount Pleasant is unsurfaced and unfenced. Early, and also as yet unconfirmed reports, suggest that Mr Ardiles may have swerved to avoid a sheep and lost control of the vehicle in the process.

It’s nearly two whole weeks before Thanksgiving, yet Amazon has already started the holiday shopping season with their farcical “Prelude To Black Friday” sale on games. Yes, it’s a real thing, and that really is what they’re calling it. We here at Player Affinity love cheap games, so we’ll overlook this nonsensical hype and keep an eye on this week-long event just in case a good deal comes along.
The “Prelude” consists of daily “Lightning Deals” which seems to be an awful lot like the usual Daily Game deals that Amazon has been holding for months. These lightning deals expire quickly, unlike the usual Daily Deals, so the “Prelude” event actually appears to be step backwards in terms of what Amazon is offering gamers.
Today’s (Now Expired) deal was 303% off a Wii game, so this promotion has gotten off to a tepid start. Slightly more interesting to PC gamers is the deal on downloadable games for PC; today’s crop includes Kitten Sanctuary and three other games which are marked down between 30 and 57%. Hey, I said “Slightly” more interesting, didn’t I?
We’ll dredge the internet for you in the coming weeks for the best Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Pre-Cyber Monday deals as they appear.


One morning last August, I grabbed a cup of coffee and headed into my home office to join a conference call. I fired up Skype, and joined the call using my Logitech C920 webcam. Within seconds Skype froze. I tried again with the same results. I checked my Windows notification area to see FileHippo App Manager had detected any new updates for Skype. It showed I was running the latest version, but I reinstalled it anyway. I did the same with the Logitech Webcam Software, but neither update helped. Within seconds of joining the conference, Skype would stop working.
I eventually called into the conference over VOIP without using my webcam. A few days later I read about how other webcam users were having problems after installing the Windows 10 anniversary update. Eventually, Microsoft confirmed the issue, and promised to deliver a fix within weeks.
If you’ve been using Windows long enough, you’ve probably experienced your own set of issues after installing a Windows Update. Patch Tuesday became a source of humor or many of us in IT, although it does seem like each version of Windows has become more stable. Traditionally, Microsoft has released individual Windows patches with cryptic descriptions. Some reference knowledge base articles while others did not. For IT managers, Windows updates required a lot of trial and error.
There must be a better way? Maybe.
Microsoft announced how they plan to release patches and updates going forward. While Microsoft provides some valid reasons for changing their patching model, major changes always introduce challenges for IT. This week I’d like to look at what these changes are as well as their potential impact.
What’s Changing in Windows Updates?
A lot is changing. The TL;DR version is that starting this month (October 2016) Microsoft will release a single monthly rollup instead of individual updates. Here’s the official version:
From October 2016 onwards, Windows will release a single Monthly Rollup that addresses both security issues and reliability issues in a single update. The Monthly Rollup will be published to Windows Update (WU), WSUS, SCCM, and the Microsoft Update Catalog. Each month’s rollup will supersede the previous month’s rollup, so there will always be only one update required for your Windows PCs to get current. i.e. a Monthly Rollup in October 2016 will include all updates for October, while November 2016 will include October and November updates, and so on.
One thing to keep in mind is that these changes apply to Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012. Windows 10 updates have already adopted the rollout schedule.
Microsoft gives a number of reasons for making this change. They include:
- Various combinations that caused sync and dependency errors
- Testing complexity increased for enterprises
- Increased scan times
- Going back to apply the right patch was challenging and time consuming
It’s clear from reading the announcement that Microsoft wants to mitigate these issues. Having a single, cumulative patch to install each month will sound like music to the ears of many Windows users. Microsoft’s intentions are admirable. But the road ahead could be bumpy.
Microsoft understands that nobody enjoys applying patches and updates, especially when the updates interrupt the workday. When I sit down each morning to go through my email, I don’t want to be stopped in my tracks by a pop-up warning me that my computer needs to reboot and apply updates. Assuming the updates install without any issues, I’m still left not knowing when I can regain control of my PC. Until my webcam stopped working, I don’t recall the last time a Windows update broke a peripheral attached to my PC.
IT knows that Windows updates can interrupt the workday so they schedule them during off-hours. And because they have encountered issues in the past, it’s not uncommon for IT to roll them out first to a small group of users. Once IT determines the updates installed without an issues, they schedule a rollout for the rest of the company. But following that plan with the changes Microsoft has proposed is a lot more difficult. When Microsoft issued separate updates, it was a lot easier for IT to pinpoint the problem and defer the specific patch. I see this change as one that’s better for end users. But it introduces a number of challenges for IT.
I hope that Microsoft continues to provide details for each monthly patch. With only one update a month, it would be great for Microsoft to give consumers a simplified explanation of the update while providing IT with a more detailed rundown of exactly what changes will be applied.
In case you needed another reminder, Microsoft is in the position of power. Many of us work for companies which partner with the Redmond behemoth and know all too well that they make most, if not all of the rules. This approach has worked well for Microsoft and many of its partners. Having a standardized platform on which to build a business is generally a very good thing. In a nod to utilitarianism, I believe that Microsoft puts policies in place that do the greatest good for the largest number of customers.
One challenge I see going forward is how Microsoft keeps both business and consumers happy. Historically, IT managers decide what software to purchase. Employees, for many year, had little to no input. If you used Lotus Notes during the 90s, you know what I mean. IT loved the platform while users despised it. Both smartphones and cloud services have ushered in an era where some of the decision making authority of IT has been transferred to the end user. Microsoft knows how to keep IT people happy because that’s been their focus for decades.
Few instances illustrate this dichotomy better the video of Steve Ballmer questioning whether there was a market for the iPhone because it didn’t have a physical keyboard. Ballmer absolutely understood what IT people wanted. But he failed to see that consumers would love the iPhone and bring it to work, forcing IT to accommodate it. Years later he’d regret that comment, but it goes to show the challenges in keeping both camps happy.
The changes Microsoft is making this month will also invariably affect MPS, and especially those who use RMM tools to monitor their customer’s infrastructure. RMM tools cover a lot of areas in IT, but one of the most important is patch management. MSPs will want to keep an eye on this development because they may need to adapt their model to fit the new update schedule. Some may even want to defer updates.
Customers will scrutinize every decision Microsoft makes, and rightly so. Microsoft’s decisions trickle down to their partners and customers.
Changing how security patches are delivered is going to make some people happy and others upset. I don’t believe Microsoft makes these decisions in a vacuum. I believe Microsoft will monitor how this change affects all their customers.
Based on the past, we know that Microsoft is willing to change course or modify their plans. Let’s hope Microsoft has performed its due diligence and is willing to listen if things don’t work out as planned.


You know what’s interesting? One of the off-putting parts of starting my own YouTube channel, probably for my partner Eunice as well, was seeing myself on the screen. Truth be told, while I was editing one of our latest videos, the K-Pop humming challenge with HelloEddi, I was initially surprised when I saw how I looked in the video, and this surprise turned quickly into dislike. To put it simply, I did not like how I looked on screen. However, after continuously working on and watching the project, I noted that I got used to how I looked and didn’t mind it later on, which then made me wonder, “Why was I so averse to it in the first place?” It’s similar to how everybody hates hearing his or her voice in audio because it sounds different from how his or her own ears perceive the sound, except in this case, there’s no way someone can really watch him or herself from outside the body except through video so there’s no means of comparison.
Based on my initial aversion to seeing myself on screen, because I hadn’t edited a video of myself in a while, I realized that this might come from a disparity in how I envision myself based on how I feel about myself and how I actually physically look; in other words, it’s perception versus reality. This must mean that I have a higher perception of myself, which isn’t a bad thing, but what is bad is how actually perceiving myself visually was a huge disappointment for me and, in turn, affected my mental perception of myself. In a world where superficiality is so rampant and self-confidence continues to dwindle (or mask its insecurity with an overcompensation in ego showcased by overt judgment of others and picking on details to assert intellectual superiority, but that’s another topic), there’s quite a critical eye when looking at your own appearance. Especially because you can’t help but compare yourself to the beauties you normally see in media, including YouTube. And it’s quite ironic, because you’re rarely as harsh when you see somebody else on screen.
However, it’s also ironic because I, for example, had not felt average in the least until I saw myself on screen. I never thought much about myself overall; I’d just felt fine with how I looked because I rarely looked at myself, and we all know selfies are mostly skewed to how we already perceive ourselves or want to perceive ourselves, so they don’t really count. And I always let my friends know:
Jokes aside, I felt relatively confident and self-assured, not to a cocky degree, but to a very unconcerned degree–but once I saw myself and automatically compared myself to others, I didn’t like what I saw and my self-confidence immediately plummeted. I did not feel like the person I saw on screen was me. There was a disconnect there, which might actually have been the most disconcerting factor. Even the behaviorisms seemed unfamiliar to me, even though I, myself, had been doing those behaviorisms. How I thought something felt when I did it, like playfully sticking out my tongue, looked entirely different when I saw it. It wasn’t cute, it was awkward and I did it too much.
Maybe this over-analyzation stems from society being too hard on others, which in turn makes us too hard on ourselves. We’re often exposed to people looking effortlessly beautiful and natural on screen, including YouTube. What we often forget or are completely unaware of is how much effort actually goes into appearing effortless. They’re often practicing how they look and behave on screen–being a beauty guru on YouTube is a full-time job. Even Korean idols often monitor themselves, continuously watching themselves on screen to study their facial expressions, actions, and behaviorisms so they can perfect how they come off to viewers, who are left oblivious to all the effort and attention and care put into the final result. Actors likewise do this, but, of course, to see how their acting is coming across, which makes more sense.
There’s also an interesting thing as “camera massage,” which is a term Koreans used, and it basically means “more exposure, more likability.” The more you see celebs on camera, the more they seem attractive to you because you get used to seeing them and familiarize yourself with how they look. And honestly, I think it’s also, or even mostly, to do with how you fall for their charms and get to know them as people. Another aspect might be how those celebs gradually feel more and more comfortable in front of the camera, resulting in more confidence. But still, even the most confident person on screen has his or her own insecurities, insecurities that everybody else says, “What? Nuh-uh.” But also insecurities that everybody else throws at them, tattooing them into their minds when that person had no problem with a physical attribute in the past.
As for me, I’d like to say I’m no beauty guru, so it shouldn’t really matter, but that’s no longer the case on YouTube. Back in the day, it would have been okay, but expectations and standards have greatly increased since the site’s founding. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, because being put-together and caring about every detail from how you look to how you deliver lines are good attributes that lead to success. And in retrospect, perhaps the awkwardness I perceive from myself on screen is actually awkwardness I feel when being filmed. Having a camera trained right on my face can be off-putting, so there is a sense of self-consciousness. And that translates through the screen and to the viewers, although it might not hit them as hard as it hits myself.
These days I am playing around with the idea of feeling comfortable in my own skin. It’s something I always wanted to accomplish growing up, so, in a way, I am liking this discomfort, because this discomfort as well as the willingness to address it is a sign of development. It’s good to become comfortable with the uncomfortable. And although I may still be awkward and self-conscious on screen, bear with me, because eventually, I will come to accept who I am in real life and how I come off on screen. And then, I’ll be able to put you at ease when you watch me.
Acting is not my main purpose for creating a YouTube channel, nor am I particularly an on-screen personality of sorts. I’m not all bright and loud and cheery. People actually say I remind them of Daria. Maybe I should try embracing that in videos…
Rather than acting, writing and directing are my passions, but I am having fun with all of the aspects of singlehandedly creating my own content. It’s all educational and a great experience I am enjoying, so I hope you stay with me as I grow as an entertainer in all facets of video making. (Also, I do think it’d be fun to do actual acting with storylines rather than short skits, so maybe I’ll even expand and try those out sometime. Anything is possible!)
Thanks for reading and watching 🙂

I will share the development processes of the solo Nuée, created in 2021, following the death of my father Huynh Thanh Van, Nuage Bleu. I will also transmit the written dances of the solo which testify to the three kinaesthesia which shaped me as a dancer and choreographer: Classical dance, Postmodern dance, Butoh. I will superimpose this kinaesthetic cartography on that of the acupuncture practised by my father, which carries the vision of a body traversed by trajectories of intensity.
The class will begin with a warm-up time: yoga postures, contact, exercises alone, in pairs/in groups/altogether. We will prepare for memory improvisations that link geography and intimacy, to spatial compositions from your own biographies. The transmission of the written dances of the solo will be the subject of warm-ups relating to the kinaesthesia of Ballet, Postmodern dance and Butoh. Automatic writing will also be practised as a lever for bodily and psychic imagination.
Bring two or three pieces of music that are important to you.
Level required: from intermediate level, any type of dance experience is welcome.
