A news junkie’s dream …. or nightmare

Wed, 16 Apr 2008 10:46:47 PDT
I am a news junkie and admittedly if I had cable plus the extra TV I would probably have either CNN or CBC Newsworld on the whole time I’m in my room I jokingly call my office. So when I saw Brian Solis’ post about local broadcast news going social I was at first rather skeptical of the the idea; after all everything these days is having the social sticker slapped on its ass like it is going to be the road to instant riches or something. But when I clicked on the LiveNewsComeras.com link (go

Still with Stupid? Why we need a smart President.

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 16:22:37 PDT
With political discourse reduced to screaming contests and actual news eclipsed by exclusive and shocking footage of celebrities without makeup, we've become not only impatient with but downright opposed to the kinds of ideas that can't be reduced to a line on a screen crawl or a two-sentence blog entry. Have you fallen into this trap?

40 Years Ago Today

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 13:38:59 PDT
Enoch Powell gave a speech to the Conservative Association meeting in Birmingham. "Rivers of Blood". I simply do not have the right to shrug my shoulders and think about something else. What he is saying, thousands and hundreds of thousands are saying and thinking - not throughout Great Britain, perhaps, but in the areas that are already undergoing the total transformation to which there is no parallel in a thousand years of English history. In 15 or 20 years, on present trends, there will be

Antarctica’s Ice Mass

Sun, 20 Apr 2008 12:15:44 PDT
Antarctica’s Ice Mass Posted on: April 17th, 2008 by Ed Ring That is the relevant question, when you read alarmist stories about ice melt in Antarctica. On March 25th, for example, the BBC dutifully reported “Antarctic Shelf Hangs by a Thread” in a report by science correspondant Helen Briggs. Here is the tag line below the title: “A chunk of ice the size of the Isle of Man has started to break away from Antarctica in what scientists say is further evidence of a warming climate.” A few par

Differentiation of Instruction in the Classroom

Sat, 19 Apr 2008 22:54:08 PDT
This is an editorial exploration into the birth of the theory and practice of differentiated instuction. I opine that what is claimed to be addressed by this allegedly "new" thinking and pedagogical approach, is neither adequately addressed in most cases, nor new. What would be new is a long-term commitment to it, unswayed by trend, fed by data.
