Sorry this is so late but....
Awhile back we learned about carbs & fats, what stood out to me the most is when we started talking about diets, diet plans & diet pills. I think they are all a bunch of bull. As Mr. Nash said, as long as you consume...
So through the last two class periods, I've figured out that anything about dieting that I thought I knew was all a misconception. Like all the media and advertisements about low carbs, zero trans fat, and just the way people think, has been prett...
Thanks for the kind words about Miss Delaney. ;)
I agree about the color of the meal. I think we can be lead astray by that if we include a lot of processed foods. However, with mostly whole foods... or items with only few ingredients... I think ...

- Favorite plant and/or animal and why:
- plant: Lygodesmia juncea - "Skeleton Weed", because it is a hard-nosed and tough minimalist where only the hardy survive.
animal: generally... jellies. Cnidarians are so geometrically interesting from a design perspective, and they persist and thrive on this planet to this day with a relatively small set of simple tools.

You've Been Nominated!
Guess what: our shiny little network has recently made the final nomination cut for the Eddies... the 2008 Edublogs Awards. Principles of Biology was nominated in the category of "best educational use of a social networking service." Our site made the final cut from all original nominees and is now open for voting.
I was not aware that the site was nominated until I was voting there, category by category myself, and was quite s… Continue

"Storm of the Century?" -An Interesting Use of Ning
Gustav is one ugly storm. It is a category 4 storm that only lost wind speed by 10mph as it passed over land in Cuba today. Even uglier is the path it is taking. Gustav is taking a steady NW aim toward Louisiana, and perhaps, New Orleans.

I made a Flickr, and I'm not sure what protections to put on it. I chose noncommercial-creative commons.
Is that ok?

Gerry Rayner said… - Perspectives on what biology students do and study elsewhere in the world is both relevant and can really stimulate further discussion among students --> leading to better understanding about difficult concepts (eg evolution) or complex processes (say respiration). I've noticed that students using our Discussion group forums in Blackboard benefit from peer feedback and these interactions help to clarify things.
Further, students (wherever they are) can be inspired by your vids (very neat, great soundtrack!) on fieldwork in exotic places, and better appreciate this wonderful but fragile world we inhabit.
Students also learn other skills like netiquette and how to ask appropriate questions about misconceptions etc, without asking for easy answers.

- Hey from sunny Oz: this is a great networking site and think the posts add value to college and uni biology education - will recommend my students join. Good luck with the Edublog awards!

MIchelle said… - i was wondering if there was anyway that you can keep us posted on what our grades are in your class. i just figured since you email us other things that you could do that also. sometimes i don't have internet connection so it makes it hard for me to post by certain times, so i do it when i do get my internet to work. but i don't always know if i get it all done.
it would just be nice to stay updated on how i'm doing! thanks.

What's hiding underneath your shirt? Have you taken a good look at what is on your plate? What kind of molecules live in your body? Simple everyday wonders turn into facts real quick. Many don't realize the reality of what they are feeding their s...

I do agree with Hunter.I think the easiest way to tell quickly that this meal is probably not really bad, without being really scientific, is only to look at all the different colors at that one plate. It has about 8 colors in it... And our brain ...

The most important thing in the experiment to me was just learning how to break down the food. Things i learned from the experiment was that not all the foods i thought were healthy weren't that healthy. I would not have said all of the things tha...
We did have a ton of low-carb stuff, even low carb pasta!!! The irony! But this weekend we cleaned out all of our pantries, and threw it all away!
Hunter... check out the statement in this page about McDonald's fries & trans fat. The differences across national barriers are very interesting (and creepy). The image you posted is certainly a Photoshop job that someone did as a satire on a plac...
Good questions... Does she eat tomato plain? Uhhhhh... yeah. It is like candy to her. She would almost just eat a plateful. Good stuff. And when this photo was taken... she would tear this stuff UP. She's still devours pretty much all you see on t...
Nice image! Thanks so much for adding these to the discussion...
Yeah i agree with Shelby. They can definitly pack my kids lunch. It fits what they tell youbout nutrieton too as far as having different colors and vegetbles. i have a question does the child actually eat it or does it just nibble and move on?
Yuck!! What were my parents thinking when they were feeding me this stuff. It's basically leftovers of other animals that they didn't need just combined into one thing.
What exactly is this ade trying to say? Just wondering
oh man that was soo gross! It also led to me watching a few others "how it's made", which led to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjhkJUDm9nQ&feature=player_embedded
It's sad! :(
