![]() My comfort level with technology is maybe a 5 out of 10. Let me start off by saying that I am older (59) and have been teaching for 9 years. I cannot thank you enough for your expertise, suggestions, and links to help in this area.īut, I had a meeting with the district supervisor for Curriculum and Instruction yesterday to get a lesson on general use of Google docs in the classroom. I have also decided to go that route not only for iSTEM, but for my regular sections of science as well. I have learned so much from all of your information, successes, and setbacks and will tell you with all sincerity, that I WILL be going paperless starting September 9. I was attracted to your wonderful blog because I, too, wanted to investigate the possibilities of going paperless in my new iSTEM classroom. Needless to say, my plate is full.įirst off, I have been following your blog since last September when I was asked (told!) that I would be the lead for the new district initiative into STEM education. The iSTEM can be thought of as the usual 8th grade science course but on steroids – with all of the normal topics but including engineering design challenges and all that goes along with the proposed NGSS guidelines in the future. My name is Jeff Bishop and I teach 8th grade Physical Science, 8th grade Robotics, as well as a new iSTEM course for 8th grade starting in September.

![]() With the PDF format, you can secure your documents so that no one can change the wording of an application or the terms of an agreement. These important documents must retain their integrity and security. Business and Legal Documents: PDF’s are essential for business and legal documents and forms that must retain their exact appearance.Plus, PDF files are searchable, making archived documents and items much easier to find, categorize, and organize. File layout is retained and can be viewed on all platforms. Archiving: When compressed PDF files can be very compact, so it is ideal for storage.In addition, PDFs can have a table of contents, bookmarks, intra-document hyperlinks, and searchability, so you can make your PDF behave like a Web page. Not only can you secure your PDF so that it can only be read and not altered, you can also be sure that it will display correctly every time. Online Content: PDF is useful for taking high-quality documents (newsletters, catalogues, manuals, technical papers, etc.) and making them available on the internet.In addition, PDF’s print-ready file transfer makes it easy to send a print-ready file to a printer in another department or even another country with little or no rework needed at the other end. ![]() PDF files are accepted by professional printers, whereas Word DOC files usually are not. PDF can create a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) file which assures you that what you see on your screen is exactly what you’ll see in your print. Printing: When the goal is to produce a high-quality print job in which precise page layout and high resolution images are key, then PDF is the clear choice over DOC.We’ll take a look at each of these two popular formats and discuss when it’s appropriate to use each. So which is the best for your documents? The answer is: It depends. Which is a better format? It depends on the job.Īdobe® PDF and Microsoft® Word DOC formats are two universally accepted document formats. Moleskines offer two options for carrying a stash of sticky notes: first, you can tear off a few from the pad and stick them to the inside cover or blank end-papers second, you can stick a bunch (in several sizes!) to an index card and stick it in the back pocket. Carry Post-Its.Īre you getting the picture here? Dustin loves him some Post-Its! I use them all the time, so I never want to be without them. ⌄ Scroll down to continue reading article ⌄ 5. Cut a template from card stock to guide you and help make your tabs consistent. Use an X-Acto knife or other sharp, easily-controlled knife to carefully cut tabs, several pages at a time, along the outside edge of your Moleskine. If you’d rather not have tabs sticking out of your Moleskine, you can still create sections with a little patience and a steady hand. Third, it helps overcome “Blank Moleskine Syndrome”, that near-pathological reluctance to make the first mark on the crisp new pages of your brand new Moleskine. Second, you can index your Moleskine, recording page numbers and contents on the last few pages or on a card stuck in the back pocket. First, if you are reviewing something you wrote several days ago and think of something you want to add, you can add a “Cont’d on page xx” note and skip ahead to the next blank page. The first mark a lot of people make in their Moleskines is to number all the pages. The closer the bookmark and flag are, the more on-the-ball your system is! 3. Use the bookmark to mark your current page, and use a Post-It tab or flag to mark the pages you’ve already processed into your system. Work back-to-front.įor people who use their Moleskine as an always-on-you “inbox” to capture whatever thoughts might cross your mind in the course of the day, with the intention of transferring them into a trusted system on return to your desk, try working from the back forwards. ![]() These tabs are a great way to instantly customize your Moleskine to your exact needs. But you can divide your Moleskine up however you like – maybe you want a “Reference” section for often-used information, or a “Books” section to record books you’d like to check out next time you’re at the library or bookstore. My standard Moleskine setup has three sections: “Tasks” up front, a small “Projects” section in the middle, and “Notes” for the last 1/2 to 1/2 of the pages. The very first thing I do when I get a new Moleskine is add some dividers. Usually sold in sets of three colors – often with funky patterns – these dividers can be used to create sections in your Moleskine, giving you easily-accessible spaces for several separate uses. Perhaps the most useful product to complement your Moleskine – besides a fine pen, of course – is the Post-It divider tab. So, without any further ado, here they are: 10 great Moleskine hacks! 1. While most of these hacks are aimed at the pocket-sized, hardbound Moleskine (what I think of as the “traditional” Moleskine), they can easily be adapted to the medium and large-sized notebooks as well. Today, I’ll describe 10 cool ways to get a little more out of your Moleskine. U.S.In honor of Lifehack’s partnership with Moleskine, I’ve decided to post all Moleskine-related posts this week.Kansas: a cyclopedia of state history, embracing events, institutions, industries, counties, cities, towns, prominent persons.^ "2003-2004 Official Transportation Map" (PDF).The National Map, accessed March 29, 2011 National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. ^ "Water-Data Report 2013 - 07145500 Ninnescah River Near Peck, KS" (PDF).United States Geological Survey, United States Department of the Interior.

The food is not only unhealthy, but it is also an inferior substitute for some of the more decadent options on the Starbucks menu. ![]() McDonald’s caramel macchiato contains 280 calories, 7 grams of fat, and 39 grams of sugar. Why Mcdonald’s Caramel Macchiatos Are Not The Best Coffee-mate has something for everyone, from sugar-free espressos to caffeine-packed brews. ![]() However, because it contains 8 g of fat and 13 g of protein, it is also a healthy option. This drink is high in calories and contains 43 grams of total carbohydrates and 43 grams of net carbohydrates. If you’re looking for a caffeine fix, the espresso caramels are a great choice. This drink contains only 2% of total carbohydrates and 2% of net carbs, making it ideal for those who want to get their day off to a good start. What are some alternatives to sugar-free milk that aren’t as high in fat? Those on a sugar-free diet can enjoy a sugar-free caramel macchiato from Coffee-mate. When it comes to coffee, classic espresso is popular. It is best to eat a food with both nutritious and filling components if you want to lose weight. A high-quality protein with an amino acid score of 100 or higher indicates complete or excellent quality. The Protein Quality graph from Nutrition Data demonstrates how close protein is to meeting the Food and Nutrition Board’s recommendation for amino acid distribution. It is common for the total estimated Glycemic Load to be less than 100 mL per day. Depending on your expert, your total glycemic load should be determined each day. You’ll find foods with roughly the same number of calories as fats, calories, and protein at the bottom of the pyramid. The Caloric Ratio Pyramid contains information about the amount of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and alcohol in a food. A food is more likely to have nutrients per calorie at the very edge of the map. The majority of those calories come from carbohydrates (56%).īy using the Nutritional Target Map, you can see how foods correspond to your nutritional and weight-management objectives. Starbucks’ Tall Caramel Macchiato contains 190 calories, 2 teaspoons of milk, and 8 grams of fat. How Many Calories Are In A Medium Caramel Macchiato From Starbucks? Caffeine-charged coffees are highlighted below. 150 mg of caffeine is in a cup of 16 fl oz coffee. In a fl oz serving, Starbucks Caramel Macchiato contains 9.38 mg of caffeine (31.70 mg per 100 ml). There are 240 calories in one (16 oz) serving of Starbucks Caramel Macchiato (Grande).Ĭold Drinks Large Caramel Macchiato (1 serving) contains 59g total carbs, 59g net carbs, 13g fat, 15g protein, and 420 calories. If you’re still determined to try anything off the beaten path in your local coffee shop, you’ll need to order yourself a caramel latte with extra syrup to be close to the Starbucks offering. You can always make it at home with only four ingredients and 160 calories for less than the price and queue. This product is made up of four main ingredients: milk, vanilla syrup, caramel sauce to drizzle, and the most important ingredient – coffee. Even though caramel macchiato sounds complicated and looks fancy when a barista calls it, it’s a surprisingly simple beverage to make at home. Here’s a link to a separate section where you can learn more about the calories in milk and how it is made. White Chocolate Mocha (620 calories), Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino (590 calories), and Java Frappuchino (580 calories) are the calorific options available in your local Starbucks (based on a large size – Venti). For example, a grande caramel macchiato made with whole milk has 240 calories, while a grande caramel macchiato made with almond milk has 350 calories.ĭepending on the milk used, the calories in caramel macchiato vary greatly. The specific number of calories in a caramel macchiato from Starbucks depends on the size of the drink and whether it is made with whole milk, 2%, soy milk, or almond milk. Caramel macchiatos at Starbucks generally have around 240-360 calories. ![]() On the side facing out, you can see the clear lens, which works just like the lens in our eyes, to focus light. When scientists use sonar to detect squid in the water, this braincase is one of the major parts of the body that reflects the sound.ĭon't forget to look at the eyes themselves. It's not proper cartilage like humans have, but it's a similar protein. Between them in the middle of the head, and somewhat more difficult to identify, is the central ganglion, a collection of very soft nerve tissue that actually surrounds the esophagus-every bite the squid takes goes through its brain!Īs you cut into the head of a Humboldt squid, you'll notice that the brain is protected by a tough braincase that looks like it's made of cartilage. They are yellowish white, soft and fleshy. If you very carefully pull the eyes out of their sockets, you'll see the optic lobes, one behind each eye. Let's start with the brain, which comes in three parts: two optic lobes and a central ganglion. Photo by Danna Staaf.Ī dissection allows you to take a very close look at the nervous system of a squid, asking and answering questions about how it might work. Squids live in an entirely different environment, so their intelligence is probably quite different—and more difficult for humans, who don’t spend time swimming in a watery world bounded only by light and darkness, to understand. Furthermore, since octopuses are used to crawling on the ground and manipulating shells and rocks, it's easy to give them mazes and puzzles to solve. Octopuses live naturally in dens on the seafloor, an environment that is fairly easy to recreate in an aquarium, but most squids live naturally in the open ocean and need a great deal of space to move around. Unfortunately, it's much more difficult to study intelligence in squid, because they're more difficult to keep in the laboratory. You may even have heard that octopuses are the brains of the invertebrate world. But the cousins of clams and oysters, the cephalopods (octopuses, squids, cuttlefish), have complex nervous systems and behaviors, as well as excellent vision. Invertebrates, which are animals without backbones, are often considered simple and dumb, with no brains at all. ![]() “Tobacco use and dependence is the number one cause of preventable disability, disease, and mortality in the US,” Chizimuzo said. ![]() The goal was to find ways to address the ‘hidden’ tobacco epidemic among people living with mental and behavioral health challenges. While he was pursuing his graduate degrees and postdoctoral fellowships, he continued this research and focused on examining the effects of smoke-free laws on environmental health and addictive behaviors. Most recently, during COVID-19, he completed a post-master’s certificate to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner.Ĭhizimuzo embarked on the start of his long career in nursing research when he worked as a research intern on health policy projects related to smoke-free environments. There, he focused on the intersections between tobacco use, mental health and substance use, and sex and gender. Afterwards, Chizimuzo spent five years in Canada, where he completed two postdoctoral fellowships at the University of British Columbia and the British Columbia Center of Excellence for Women’s Health. Over the next several years, he went on to complete several master’s and doctorate degrees, and a second degree in philosophy. What started as a research internship developed into a passionate goal to improve mental and behavioral wellness through tobacco treatment initiatives.Ĭhizimuzo’s nursing journey began in 1999 upon completion of his undergraduate degree. ![]() Chizimuzo Okoli, PhD, MPH, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, NCTTP, FAAN, discovered the research path to which he would dedicate his nursing career while pursuing his undergraduate degree. ![]() A commander may then take command of their chosen flagship. ![]() Prior to the game, each ship and/or squadron rolls for leadership and applies any modifiers that are applicable. Any game of 750 points or more must include a fleet commander. As we mentioned in the first article, Battlescribe remains an excellent resource to quickly build your fleet for any point level – but bear in mind that the file will contain all expansion ships from not just the core book, but also the Armada book and various individual supplements. Common game sizes range between 1,250 and 2,000 points, but fair warning, Battlefleet Gothic does take a fair amount of time at the upper ranges of points values. Forming Up The Fleet Size of the Gameīattlefleet Gothic games may range from 500 to 2,500 for decent sized patrols all the way up to full fleet sized engagements.

In our first article we discussed what Battlefleet Gothic (BFG) is, how to find everything you need to play, and why you should play it (it’s the best and you become the best by association). ![]() Long T-shirts are also sometimes worn by women as nightgowns. A similar item is the T-shirt dress or T-dress, a dress-length T-shirt that can be worn without pants. Hip hop fashion calls for tall-T shirts which may extend down to the knees. Variants of the T-shirt, such as the V-neck, have been developed. Ī T-shirt typically extends to the waist. T-shirts have also become a medium for self-expression and advertising, with any imaginable combination of words, art and photographs on display. T-shirts were originally worn as undershirts, but are now worn frequently as the only piece of clothing on the top half of the body, other than possibly a brassiere or, rarely, a waistcoat ( vest). T-shirts are especially popular with branding for companies or merchandise, as they are inexpensive to make and purchase. T-shirts are among the most worn garments of clothing used today. In the 1960s, printed T-shirts gained popularity for self-expression as well as for advertisements, protests, and souvenirs.Ĭurrent versions are available in many different designs and fabrics, and styles include crew-neck and V-neck shirts. Printed T-shirts were in limited use by 1942 when an Air Corps Gunnery School T-shirt appeared on the cover of Life magazine. Often boys wore them while doing chores and playing outside, eventually opening up the idea of wearing them as general-purpose casual clothing. The shirts became even more popular in the 1950s after Marlon Brando wore one in A Streetcar Named Desire, finally achieving status as fashionable, stand-alone, outerwear garments. Following World War II, it was worn by Navy men as undergarments and slowly became common to see veterans wearing their uniform trousers with their T-shirts as casual clothing. Marlon Brando in the trailer for A Streetcar named Desire.īy the Great Depression, the T-shirt was often the default garment to be worn when doing farm or ranch chores, as well as other times when modesty called for a torso covering but conditions called for lightweight fabrics. "No safety pins - no buttons - no needle - no thread", ran the slogan aimed at men with no wives who lacked sewing skills. In the "after" photo, a virile gentleman wears a "bachelor undershirt" stretchy enough to be pulled over the head. In the "before" photo, a man averts his eyes from the camera as if embarrassed he has lost all the buttons on his undershirt and has safety-pinned its flaps together. With and without buttons, they were adopted by miners and stevedores during the late 19th century as a convenient covering for hot environments.Īs slip-on garments without buttons, the earliest T-shirt dates back to sometime between the 1898 Spanish–American War and 1904, when the Cooper Underwear Company ran a magazine ad announcing a new product for bachelors. First, the one-piece union suit underwear was cut into separate top and bottom garments, with the top long enough to tuck under the waistband of the bottoms. The modern T-shirt evolved from undergarments used in the 19th century. Simple, T-shaped top garments have been a part of human clothing since ancient times garments similar to the T-shirt worn earlier in history are generally called tunics. Production processes vary but can be environmentally intensive, and include the environmental impact caused by their materials, such as cotton which is both pesticide and water intensive. For example, two billion T-shirts are sold per year in the United States, or the average person from Sweden buys nine T-shirts a year. T-shirts are inexpensive to produce and are often part of fast fashion, leading to outsized sales of T-shirts compared to other attire. The manufacture of T-shirts has become highly automated and may include cutting fabric with a laser or a water jet. Some modern versions have a body made from a continuously knitted tube, produced on a circular knitting machine, such that the torso has no side seams. They are typically made of cotton textile in a stockinette or jersey knit, which has a distinctively pliable texture compared to shirts made of woven cloth. The T-shirt evolved from undergarments used in the 19th century and, in the mid-20th century, transitioned from undergarment to general-use casual clothing. T-shirts are generally made of a stretchy, light, and inexpensive fabric and are easy to clean. Traditionally, it has short sleeves and a round neckline, known as a crew neck, which lacks a collar. ![]() A T-shirt (also spelled tee-shirt or tee shirt), or tee for short, is a style of fabric shirt named after the T shape of its body and sleeves.
