Dartmouth engineering professor Yan Li: "In my ENGS 33 Solid Mechanics class, students used their knowledge of mechanics of materials to design super stretchy dough. Students were unable to come to the Instron lab, but they were creative in using the simple tools (ruler, spring scale, binder clips and a bag of flour) we sent them to test dough samples at home.
"Students not only learned how to extract key mechanical properties from the testing data, but also found the dominating factors that can significantly enhance dough ductility. My students were able to unlock the materials science behind super stretchy dough and draw many interesting parallels between dough-making and metallurgy.
"For example, students found that, 'Like metal forging, kneading changes the internal structure of the dough and makes it more homogenous.' (From Group 3: Logan Sankey, Glendora Murphy and Brook Leigh).
"The ratio of water and flour and the timing of adding oil also make a huge difference. It takes a few trial-and-errors to find the optimized ratio of flour and water for gluten chain formation. In general, adding a little bit more water can contribute to dough ductility but this will negatively affect dough strength.
"This example reflects a long-time material design challenge that material strength and ductility tend to be exclusive. 'If oil is added in the mixing step with water and flour, it can break down gluten into shorter strands and lead to low material ductility. This is why cookies made with a high butter content are typically more crispy and crumbly, while higher water ratio makes it more chewy.' (From Group 3).
"However, if oil is applied on the dough surface when it is being fully rested and kneaded, it won’t cut the existing gluten. Instead oil can lubricate the gluten chains and allow them to slide along each other when tensile load is applied to the dough. This mechanism leads to dramatic increase of dough ductility.
"Group 3 presented the stretchiest dough with an average ductility of 544.72% (kudos)! This is an exciting result. The conclusions from this project will motivate us to push the ductility limit of many existing materials."

Another working day for me, but edging closer to the weekend hurrah!
On my lunch break I nipped across the road to John Ryland's library. Such a pretty building inside and out. Was after some old books for ODC2's challenge of "knowledge". No shortage there. Was a bit of a challenge with them being in glass cabinets and lights reflecting off the surface. Got there in the end! However, I did spot this whilst I was walking around and was tempted to use this instead... but the books won!

"And let thy feet
millenniums hence
be set in midst of knowledge."
British museum, London.
Best if seen large.
The knowledge that the human organism is not of this earth, and that it can sustain itself on this earth only if it is continuously stimulated to overcome the forces of this earth — this knowledge did exist. Namely, we do not eat to get this or that food into oneself, but we eat so that we can develop the forces inwardly which can overcome this food. We eat to bring forth resistance to this earth, and we live on this earth in order to bring forth resistance.
But this was gradually forgotten. One just took the whole matter in a materialistic way and finally one only still tried to see if this or that substance in these or other plants might give help. Yes, you see that is what was once meant, and what we again must have in mind regarding the dark age. Everything has simply become dark. In earlier times one looked at the light ether-body, and regarded this as man. Now one does not see anything of this light any more. One perceives only where there is matter, and one holds on to the dead light. But this dead light gives man only abstract conceptions, it has brought forth only intellectualism. But today we stand in a transition to the necessity to recognize the light again in a new way. Before, man knew within himself: he had this light ether body. Now we must increasingly develop such knowledge, and recognize the etheric in the outer world, especially in the plant kingdom.
Goethe made a beginning with this in his theory of metamorphosis, although he still put the whole into abstract conceptions. This must develop more and more into Imaginations. And we must be clear that we simply must reach the point of perceiving the being of the plant in luminous pictures. While man himself was luminous in the earlier light age, in the future nature around us, as far as it is plant-world, has to become aglow in the most manifold Imaginations of plant forms. And just with the help of these plant forms, luminously shining forth, will we be able to find new remedies in the plants. This necessity confronts us. While man in the earlier light age saw an inner light, people of the present age have the obligation of “seeing” in the outer world, to behold again a light, this light in the outer world. -rudolf steiner

The Knowledge Nation 100 luncheon – on 10 December at Doltone House in Sydney – celebrated the Knowledge Nation 100. The Knowledge Nation 100 are the rock stars of Australia’s new economy – the visionaries, intellects, founders and game changers building the industries and institutions that will underwrite the nation’s future prosperity.
The luncheon was addressed by the Prime Minister of Australia, the Hon Malcolm Turnbull MP.
Last year, a colleague and I received funding to bring representatives from a number of aboriginal teacher education programs from across Canada to form an aboriginal knowledge exchange network. Today was our first meeting, a Symposium in Regina. Thanks to those that did all the work, it will be an impressive three-day event.
The project envisages the involvement of disadvantaged groups both in the processing of organic waste, but also by planting trees on unused areas in the region.

This is the Hel card from the Goddesses: Knowledge Cards deck. Below is the text found on the back of the card.
'Hel is the Norse queen of the underworld, a mother goddess in her underworld guise. She rules over the fiery womb of regeneration and is especially responsible for those who die of disease or old age. Her underworld, unlike the Christian hell, which received its name from her, is simply an otherworld, a place of renewal rather than a place of punishment and misery. When northern shamans visit her realm, they put on a helkappe, a magic mask (sometimes a helmet) that renders them invisible. It is possible that the masked harlequin, a standard character in commedia dell 'arte, was originally one of the kindred of the goddess Hel. Hel is an embodiment of the divine mystery, a challenge to look behind the mask of appearances to see things as they really are.'
It takes patience to listen, and humility to realize that what we have come to know are just about the tip of the iceberg...and vanity of all vanities, we find the simple truth in that we seek,all along here in the Kingdom Within...

Jimmy Wales Visit Korea.
Jimmy Donal "Jimbo" Wales (born August 7, 1966) is an American Internet entrepreneur known for his role in the creation of Wikipedia, a free open content encyclopedia launched in 2001. He serves on the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation, holding the board-appointed "community founder" seat. In 2004, he founded Wikia, a privately owned free web hosting service.
Although Wales has long been cited as the co-founder of Wikipedia, he disputes the "co-" designation, asserting that he is "the sole founder of Wikipedia". With others, Wales laid the foundation for Wikipedia's rapid growth and popularity.
The success of the project helped popularize Web 2.0, a trend in web development that aims to facilitate creativity, collaboration, and sharing among users. As Wikipedia expanded and its public profile grew, Wales took on the role of the project's spokesperson and promoter through speaking engagements and media appearances.
His work with Wikipedia, which has become the world's largest encyclopedia, prompted Time magazine to name him in its 2006 list of the world's most influential people.Wales is the de facto leader of Wikipedia, whose role in the project has gained broad media attention and has led to controversy.
