Just like the scientific genius of Newton which is accessible to a multiplicity of ages and learners, so too, the Newtons Castle web resource provides a vast array of differentiated multidisciplinary curricula projects and investigative chambers within its pages.

EARLY CHILDHOOD

Language Arts

A child in grade 2 or 3 can experience an online think aloud and read aloud using the animation/picture walk technique of balanced literacy as the child considers how and why light is refracted through a prism.

Further language arts uses for the prism and why dogs chase cars problem construct, would be: having the children create their own pour quoi deliberately fictional folk tale to explain this science fact and then include an informational paragraph with the science fact data in it!!

They can also use the questions to author a scientifically accurate answer to the question in the style of the wonderful John Sciezka Science Verse (New York: Viking, 2004).

Science/ Mathematical Reasoning/Problem Solving

Since color identification and discussion is part of the early childhood science curriculum, children can use this animation as well as the animation of the car rolling up hill, as the catalyst for science log picturing observations. These questions also can serve as the bases for inculcating young learners in science method and hypothesis formation.

The same child can only ponder the scientific explanation The child can hypothesize as to why the dog chases a car. Therefore the child has practiced early childhood learning technology assisted inquiry based learning. The animation and web has accessed the young learner to this big Newtonian idea.

MIDDLE ELEMENTARY LEVEL INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL

LANGUAGE ARTS

On the middle elementary level, children can develop their own ideas and stories or factual explanations for why cars roll up hill. They can also storyboard animations using the visual as a catalyst for persuasive narrative or procedural account or research writing.

They can develop further science riddles and respond to them in riddle format.

They can also use these questions and the other Newtons question page on the web resource as the starting point for procedural account and/or outlining of the steps they would take in the preliminary research process to discover the answers to these questions. They could even detail what happens when they put these questions into a search engine and then start checking out the matches. Of course, they can also click on the site links to explore the actual sources of the information.

They can also write to some of the other experts cited online, creating authentic communications and practicing much needed business/emailing skills.

Intermediate school students can add in their own links with explanations as to how these links enrich specific pages

SOCIAL STUDIES/ TEST SOPHISTICATION/ INTEGRATED BALANCED LITERACY

On middle grade levels, the web resource can provide information for biographical snapshots or student biography writings of Newton. They can also rewrite his story for middle school students since the web resource target audience is high school students.

Middle school students can map Newtons life to go along with his timeline.

Intermediate Students can review a teen trade book about Newton to enhance the site!! They can use the timeline, the animations, the graphics, and photos on the site for DBQ-document Question links.

SCIENCE

They can have fun themselves with connecting Newtons rich genius to Science and Math content/ curricula, they are already studied or will be studying. They can even author a page of such connections with the heading: Newton KNEW IT ALL!!

Intermediate students can design web pages that focus on current issues or stories in science and /or mathematics which resonate with Newtons understandings.

They can also digitally photograph natural phenomena in daily life that reflect Newtons understandings and insights.

SCIENCE/MATHEMATICS/LANGUAGE ARTS

Newtons Inventions page can be the jumping off point for the middle school students creating their own inventions inspired by his or exploring current permutations of how his inventions live on in our current time.

They can relate the information on the Pennsylvania Mountains to their Earth Science Curriculum and research other magnetic mountains. They can also develop a list of links for these mountains.

Intermediate Students can do an inventions need survey, preliminary drawings and a prcis detailing the need, science/mathematical design principles behind it, and market design for their inventions. They can be Newtons 21st Century apprentices in invention.

HIGH SCHOOL

The site was developed for, by and with high school students from John F. Kennedy High School.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS/TEST SOPHISTICATION/ REGENTS/SAT ESSAY WRITING/ DEBATING/ STUDIES/

Of course, for this grade level the power point can be the power catalyst for revisitings of Newtons achievements and aligning Newton to contemporary issues of intellectual freedom.

High school students can partake of his castle of critical thinking , investigative and hypothesis formation as they react to the same issues of censorship and intellectual freedom for publication that charged his life.

They can develop their own pro and con persuasive essay takes on some of the issues and themes he advocated.

Of course they can also research how these issues have changed and the extent to which they figure in todays news.

They can develop designs for their own pages to amplify these issues.

They can also develop model English Regents test sophistication questions in multiple choice, DBQ and essay format for the exam and of course provide the answers as well.

MATHEMATICS:

They can explore the extent to which Newtons mathematical insights are part of their current curricula or have fun by having him comment on their current mathematics textbooks!!

They can research to identify other mathematicians who were investigating at the same time as Newton and compare their results with his.

SCIENCE:

They can develop sample pages from Newtons ongoing data keeping in which they hypothesize, using his writings and ideas, how he would have written or filled in a current lab observation journal or lab procedure format.

WORLD HISTORY:

Students can design a timeline focusing on other giant multidisciplinary science, mathematics, and political thinkers such as Da Vinci and Einstein and relate Newtons achievements to theirs using graphic organizers in a power point.

I dont know about you, but Ive always been interested in my past. My way past, that is. That past that was even before I was born. Well, of course Im talking about my ancestors. Those very people who had a part in making me who I am today.

It used to be the search for my heritage took me to the library where I had to spend countless hours combing through books seeking information about my ancestors. But, today, there are so many more resources available for genealogy research. Lets take a look at three such resources you should consider, both high tech and low tech.

The Internet

The internet has certainly simplified genealogy research. You no longer have to take a trek to the library and sit next to someone with strong perfume or cologne to find information about your ancestors.

What kind of information can you find on the internet?

Surname Search
Birth Records
Death Records
Marriage Records
Census Records
Cemetery Records
Military Records

While searching on the internet you have the choice of using a paid service, or numerous free services, many specific to states or counties. For example, if youre interest in Birth, Death and Marriage records for ancestors from West Virginia, you can go to http://www.wvculture.org/vrr and do a free search of their records. Many other states, counties and historical societies have similar websites.

Another way to utilize the internet is to visit genealogy communities or forums. Perhaps someone else is researching the same people, or knows someone who is. One such site is http://www.geocities.com/ohgenealogy/Index.html, where people have links to their personal genealogy pages, as well as a link to a genealogy forum. This site deals with ancestors from Ohio, but you can find similar pages for other states and countries by doing a basic internet search.

DNA Testing

Want to go even more high tech? Many people have turned to DNA tests to determine where their ancestors are from. A simple swab of the inside of ones cheek (yep, just like they do on CSI) can yield DNA which will be compared with others DNA. Two types of DNA testing are Y chromosome testing (Y-DNA) and mitochondrial DNA testing. The Y DNA tests look at paternal lineage while the mitochondrial DNA looks at maternal lineage.

Such tests can be used to determine such things as: which present-day African country you share your ancestry; which European maternal clan you share ancestry; percentage of Native American ancestry.

Oral History

From the extreme high tech to the extreme low tech. While its true some stories get distorted over many tellings, you still should talk to as many relatives as possible to get clues to your genealogy. Oral histories can give you information that no DNA test or records search will offer.

Oral histories, along with giving you information to then research through the internet, can also give you the family color. Oral histories make your heritage come alive and become more colorful. Maybe you have a horse thief in your familys past. Now, nobody would want a car thief in their family now. But a horse thief in your family past who lived before the Civil War? Well, thats just interesting.

Remember to organize all your information so that someday you can pass it down to future generations as well. You might want to purchase some genealogy software which can help organize and publish your information.

Remember, your past is a part of who you are today. Of course, your future is up to you.

The Internet has opened up a whole new world for us bringing places we may never normally see into full view right on our computer screen. Now, like never before, any computer user regardless of where they are has instant access to a location that may even be thousands of miles away. Web cams can broadcast live images in a matter of seconds and the Global Positioning System or GPS - can pinpoint an address down to the street and house through GPS mapping.

GPS is a system of 24 satellites that continually circle the earth. The system as we know it today originally began in the 1960s as the United States Navy implemented a system to help submarines pinpoint their location. The United States Department of Defense taking this initial work a step forward designed and implemented GPS. The first satellite was launched in 1978. The 24 satellites of today were not all in operation until well into the 1990s. Today, we can pinpoint any location based upon the signal of the satellite closest to the location.

GPS mapping was a natural byproduct of such advancements, allowing us to harness the information provided by the satellite system. GPS mapping can find an address and instantly bring you there; some footage is so crystal clear that you can see shrubbery in the front yard and cars in the street.

Specific websites will allow you to simply enter an address or point of reference and information is instantaneously gathered from satellites in space. In a matter of seconds, a photo image appears on our computer screen; its almost hard to believe.

Clearly, GPS has brought us into a new world of information; GPS mapping is only part of this process. Its difficult to know what lies around the corner in the form of satellite information and what role GPS will play in our future. But the possibilities are endless.

Since Napster revolutionized the file sharing industry in 1999, peer to peer services have been popping up all over. Movie sharing services were soon to follow with services such as Bittorrent as broadband capabilities spread. With the recent introduction of the iPhone, many iPhone peer to peer networks have come about. The question lingering in many consumers minds is... are these iPhone download services legal? In the following paragraphs, we'll discuss what is legal and what isn't, as well as why.

Ok, so getting to the initial point of the article, are these iPhone download services legal? In short, there is a lot of recent precedence that says they're not illegal. So now you're saying, "but I thought file sharing was a huge no-no?" Well that depends on a couple of things, how you use the technology, as well as the topology of the file sharing network. Liabilities fall on different parties in each case. You may have noticed the hype, the buzz, the hoopla, of peer to peer filing sharing has calmed down recently. Why?

Over the past few years, there have been several lawsuits involving file sharing software such as Morpheus, Grokster, Kazaa, the list goes on. Because of this, now there is plenty of legal precedence stating that the software itself is not illegal. How can this be? To answer this question, we have to explore how this software works, and compare it to how peer to peer used to work.

So, what's legal and what isn't? With the case of the aforementioned Napster, their network was set up in a way where a centralized server, or a central point where every search goes, was responsible for all song requests. The server would then send back a list of references where the user could download his or her music. Since the Napster assets were involved in every search, they were actively participating in the file sharing process. This got them in a lot of trouble. This is not how the iPhone download services at set up.

Now you're saying, ok ... so what's the legal way to do it? Here's your answer. A decentralized file sharing network is a peer to peer network not unlike a centralized network, with one KEY difference. As the name suggests, there is no central server, which means, if the software developer turns of his or her computer, the network can continue to run seamlessly, because the software does not rely on the centralized server to operate. The computers in the peer to peer network that have the software running send out the file references. This is way around the above problem. There have been many court cases in recent years citing that this type of file sharing network does nothing illegal.

The iPhone download services in question are all developed using the decentralized peer to peer file sharing topology described above, meaning the software is 100% legal for the company to distribute. There is one more question to answer however. How can YOU safely use the distributed software. Read on to find out.

The way to get in trouble with file sharing is by sharing hundreds or even thousands of different files. The reason behind this is because if you do that, everyone on the entire network has access to your shares, which means a lot of distributed material from your IP address. How do you stay safe with these iPhone download services? Simple. Disable your file sharing, or if your software won't allow it, simply move your downloads to a different folder. This will make sure you are not sharing all of your files with the rest of the peer to peer network and you'll be in the clear.

You'll also want to run a virus check on the files you download. With peer to peer networks, the developers don't have much control over what files are shared on their networks so sometimes an occasional spyware or trojans will be implanted in the media files. Run virus checks before installing your files on your brand new iPhone.

Take the above precautions and you'll have no trouble with iPhone download services and you'll be well on your way to making your iPhone that much better! I hope this answered any questions you may have had. To find out more about these services, check out the link below. Thanks for reading!

Hey you made it! I'm glad you liked my article. Why did you read it? You wanted information!
Ah, of course. Well in that case, you can find more about iPhone Downloads right there down there.

Make up does wonder to the overall image. It makes the face polished and pretty looking. I have met one too many women who told me they have no time for make up application. These women are definitely at a disadvantage in the job market, because women who put make up on, makes about 35% more than those who dont.

A perfect make up application has many steps. However, some days, women have to wake up and run out for work, with no time for breakfast or a long make up routine. If you are a busy woman with no time in the morning, follow this quick make up routine that will guarantee you looking simple and fresh.

These are the tools and make up you must have on hand face powder, big powder brush, lipstick, eyelash curler, mascara and concealer.

Be sure the concealer is a shade lighter than your face. By the time it covers the dark blemish, the colour of the coverage will be very close to your natural skin tone. The face powder colour is to match your own face colour. Use a lipstick that is a shade or two darker than your lips for radiance. As for mascara if you are a brunette, you may choose very dark brown to black. However, if you are blond or very fair, use taupe or medium brown instead for more harmony.

Here are the steps for a 2 minute make up application:

1. Wash, tone and moisturize your face, apply sunscreen, then put some lipbalm on the lips.

2. Dab on concealer using your finger tip preferably your ring finger. Dab it on on any blemishes you have, as well as on your undereye circles. Blend well.

3. Dust on face powder with a big fluffy powder brush.

4. Put on lipstick.

5. Curl your eyelashes, sweep on mascara.

Voila - simple and fresh. Now you are ready to rush out!

Insurance as we all know is a type of " risk management" mainly done to evade any sort of risks of prospective monetary loss. However, there are different types of insurance related to matters other than financial-for example different pet insurances to care of your pets. Among these, pet care insurance or pet health care insurance, is the most common type

Here, some amount is paid to the person, whose pet falls ill or suffers any accident. The pet insurance policy that is paid, is usually limited by the sum that will be paid by three ways-either by putting a check on the total amount to be paid in a year or by putting a check on for each illness or accidents or even putting check on for every claim along with restricting the period of the claim. The pet owner generally has to pay some amount for any claim called premium.

Mostly, these types of insurances are available for cats and dogs only. Sometimes special insurances are also offered for horses. These policies are almost available in all (developed) countries. But the rules and other details regarding the policies differ.

After making a good study on different companies who are engaged in this business it has been found that till now ' the king of the jungle' is VPI pet insurance, which covers almost over 6400 illness, accidents or injury cases. They also cover for vaccines, though generally insurances are not paid for veterinary cares.

Pet insurance has now become the fastest growing form of insurance in the market as it helps us to get the best care for our pet and also helps us to get ready, beforehand for any sort unanticipated emergencies. It also helps us to cope with the rising veterinary costs.

A new kitchen backslpash design can revitalize an otherwise out-dated or tired style without remodeling your entire kitchen. Turn your kitchen backsplash into an eye-catching, one-of-a-kind design with exotic pieces, murals, mosaics, marble or metal tile. Backsplash ideas are endless, so good planning is important.

Follow these style tips and ideas to create that perfect backsplash design you've been dreaming of.

Kitchen Backsplash Styles and Themes

I'm sure you've been in kitchens that you really loved and some you didn't. Also, you've seen enough pictures to have a good idea of the "look" you want to create. Adhering to a central theme will help you avoid a mish-mash style and turn your kitchen backsplash idea into a design that you enjoy for years to come.

Old World: This look is cozy and comfortable and easy to achieve. A classic style. Use tumbled marble, chipped or worn kitchen backsplash tile, cobblestone or generally any aged material in the subtle earth tones of beige, gold and light brown. Dark browns are out.

Hand-painted tiles, murals and mosaics are also right at home with this style. And although not traditional, a copper backsplash or tin backsplash could be interesting too.

Mediterranean: Colorful, hand-painted tiles in seaside colors of blue and green are what create this fresh, vibrant and comfortable look. The boldly colored tiles can be used as accents, or as a distinct kitchen tile design in a particular section or for the whole backsplash. This look works best when paired with light earth toned countertops and cabinets.

Contemporary: Clean, sleek lines and smooth surfaces are the keys here. No complex tile designs, rough textures or a busy stone. Polished granite on both the countertop and backsplash is perfect for achieving this look. But also consider a glass backsplash, metal backsplash or stainless steel backsplash for that ultra-urban appeal.

Metals are HOT! Copper, tin and especially stainless steel backsplashes and countertops are quickly gaining popularity with many new tiles and designs on the market.

Uniquely Yours: Don't be afraid to take elements of style (but not too many) from different themes to create a design that looks and feels good to you.

Just remember a simple, elegant backsplash design will be most pleasing. So, plan it all out first, have a clear picture in your mind what the finished product should be like and then play around with the design.

Putting It All Together: Colors, Textures & Patterns

Your goal of course, is to integrate the backsplash with all the other elements and structures in your kitchen to establish the theme you desire.

Colors of your backsplash material should be chosen to complement the countertops and cabinets.

Bits and splashes of non-complementary colors can be integrated if they don't compete for attention, but start by picking colors that are represented in your countertop.

The texture of the backsplash materials should be consistent with the style or theme of your kitchen. Rough and uneven for "Old-World" or smooth and sleek for contemprorary.

Avoid creating a busy pattern or using too many textures, colors or intense colors if your countertop has a lot of movement or veins. Creating harmony is the key and you don't want to confuse the eye with an intricate backsplash design on top of a dramatic countertop.

More Fun Backsplash Ideas

Murals and mosaics in general will look better when paired with a countertop that has a uniform or subtle color and pattern.

Niches and ledges can be interesting and useful elements to add to your kitchen backsplash design. Place these above the sink or behind the cooktop to display a collection of colorful bottles, ceramics, plants or all your spices!

Picture frame designs are often added above the cooktop if space allows creating a focal point for a mural, mosaic or a more elaborate tile pattern.

Choose Your Countertops Before The Backsplash

You want to choose your countertop material prior to designing your backsplash for a few reasons.

First, the countertop is generally the centerpiece of the kitchen and should be the first material chosen or matched to an existing color scheme.

Second, the countertop material is going to cost you more than the backsplash (unless you are using the countertop material for a backsplash as well), which for most of us makes it a higher priority.

Lastly and probably the best reason to pick your countertop first is that the design possibilities for your backsplash are virtually infinite; therefore, it is much easier to match the backsplash to the countertop rather than the reverse.

Designing Your Backsplash Space

First off, you need to determine the space you have available and whether you can or want to change it.

Measurements of a typical backsplash are 16 to 18 inches between the countertop and cabinets. Now, the countertops must be installed before adding the backsplash so, the countertop will be at a fixed height.

The top cabinets, however, can be moved increasing available backsplash space to 20 inches or even 24 inches allowing more room for your design.

Of course, moving your current cabinets higher or installing new cabinets means that it will be more difficult to reach the top shelves and you may lose space between the top of the cabinets and the ceiling, which is often a nice space for displaying plants, glassware, ceramics or other personal treasures.

Before you decide, consider the size of your kitchen. A 24 inch backsplash may be overwhelming in an intimate kitchen, but if your kitchen is large and open with tall ceilings then the bigger space expands the design possibilities and adds to the dramatic appeal of the backsplash.

Outlets and Switches are an important consideration too. In most homes the outlets are right in the middle of the backsplash and will interfere with your design.

If you're only replacing the countertops and backsplash then it's probably not worth the trouble to have them moved.

If this is the case, you can faux paint the cover plates to match the backsplash, use stainless steel cover plates if you have appliances to match or buy cover plates that are a close color match to the backsplash.

If you are doing a big kitchen remodel or building from scratch, then consider placing the outlets under the cabinets.

Other options are an outlet strip installed at the top of the splash or turn the outlet horizontal and place them just above the countertop surface at the bottom of the backsplash where they are more likely to be hidden from view by all the stuff on your countertops.

Also, installing under-cabinet lighting will help showcase your backsplash and provide additional workspace light. Of course, messing with the electricity means you'll need to get a permit and adhere to building codes.

Creating a kitchen backsplash design is an exciting project since even simple designs are unique reflecting your personal taste and style. So have fun and good luck!

It you have been driving for any length of time, you most certainly have come across one or more occasions where you were caught speeding. It is always an unpleasant experience to be pulled over by a police officer and to be handed a speeding ticket.

However, there are ways you could be savvier and avoid getting caught speeding:

* On a road with more than two lanes, drive in the middle lane. When you drive in the middle lane, nestled in the middle a bunch of speeding cars, you are less likely to be picked up by the radar detector and by the police officers. Instead, vehicles in front of or on the side of this speeding pack will more likely be caught for speeding. Driving in the middle lane also allows you to spot police officers easier than driving in the outside lanes

* Avoid changing lanes frequently as it tends to draw attention from the police who are on the lookout for vehicles weaving in and out of the lanes. It is best to stay in one lane and drive at around the same speed as those cars around you. It will make you less noticeable to the police and less likely to be picked up by the radar detectors.

* Drive up behind or beside another motorist who is driving over the speed limit and then take note of his speed, After having done so, slow down and pull back a bit so that your speed is slightly slower than his. So in case the car in front suddenly brakes to avoid a speed trap, you will have enough time to slow down before the cops can record your speed, while the car in front will be more likely to be fined a speeding ticket.

However, if you still get pulled over despite the above precautions, you could still possibly wiggle your way out of a speeding ticket with just a warning from the police officer:

* Having a good attitude helps. Addressing the officer respectfully, referring to him or her as "Officer" and paying close attention to what the officer is saying will help. Furthermore, if this is your first infraction and you did not go too much over the speed limit, the police officer may be inclined to just give you a warning.

* Having a bad attitude and cursing at the police officer will only result in a hefty fine. If the officer sees that you are not taking the situation seriously, the officer is more likely to go ahead with the citation in order to teach you a lesson.

* Do not admit to the police officer that you did actually break the speed limit. Doing so would limit your option in court and leave you no room to plead not guilty in court. If you take full responsibility while the officer is writing up the speeding ticket, the officer will testify to that in court. You would have lost the case on the spot, and you would have to pay the full penalty.

If you still get a speeding ticket though, it might then be a good idea to consult with attorneys who specialize in traffic violations, or with retired police officers who provide speeding ticket consultations, as their expertise may help you take advantage of lesser known loopholes.

I don't know if anyone out there had any experience with mesothelioma. Up until September 2004 i had never even heard of the word Mesothelioma or even know how to pronounce it. My uncle had lead a healthy and active lifestyle, he would do anything for his Family. My uncle works for asbestos company till early 90s .

Then September 2004 my uncle started complaining of flu like symptoms which at the time was fatigue, coughing, lethargic, light headaceness and loss of weight. He eventually went to the doctors 3 weeks later. The doctor sent my uncle for chest x-ray. which showed he had fluid on the left lung. They drained a bit of fluid from his lung and did various test which come back as inconclusive. Then they decided to do a biopsy of the lung. Which came back as the diagnosis of Mesothelioma. I was sat with my uncle when the specialist told my uncle the diagnosis.

When he was explaining how he had contracted it and what would happen from that point, i felt numb and could not take in what the specialist was saying. I did everything to read up on Mesothelioma so i knew what i was expected. My heart sank when i read it was terminal and there was nothing that could be done. My uncle was diagnosed in the November and he went down ill very rapid. He had become bed bound in a matter of 2 months and was barely eating and had lost 3 stone in weight. He was very thin and weak. The doctors did not give us a time span, but in February this year 2007 he passed away.

Now our family is in court for the compensation for asbestos exposer which is the main cause of mesothelioma. Our law farm is working hardly so we are expecting for compensation still its about 3 year passed.

I hope that my experience can help some one. Please if there is anyone who wants to talk about it, or going through it themselves please feel free to get in touch!
