We did the grid on the computer, then printed out and she wrote out the assignment and drew the animals. All unaided. P.S. I did not know a few of the facts in this matrix. I love how having children makes you realize you diminish, you aren't as smart as you thought, you kind of get weaker, they get stronger, and one day you die.
Great work here, though. That's my girl!

THE SILICON VERTEX TRACKER OF THE BABAR DETECTOR AT THE STANFORD LINEAR ACCELERATOR FACILITY.
THE SILICON VERTEX TRACKER IS THE HEART OF THE BABAR EXPERIMENT AT SLAC. HERE PHYSICISTS ARE PUTTING THE FINISHING TOUCHES ON IMPROVEMENTS TO THE DETECTOR. THE BABAR DETECTOR, PART OF SLAC'S B FACTORY SYSTEM, WILL PRODUCE B AND ANTI-B MESONS, PARTICLE-ANTIPARTICLE PAIRS SO THAT SCIENTISTS CAN INVESTIGATE THE MATTER-ANTIMATTER ASYMMETRY IN NATURE.

This was not as easy as I thought. There was alot of clipping and pruning that took place to get just the small glimpse of color that you see. I clipped the stems very short and unbundled the flowers allowing only one flower per stem.

QUOTE….“The study of history was oddly congenial to Joseph. There was a kind of poetry in it for him. He had always loved those flamboyant tales of far-off strife, the carefully preserved legends of the fabled kings and kingdoms of Old Earth. But they were just tales to him, gaudy legends, ingenious dramatic fictions. He did not seriously think that men like Agamemnon and Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan had ever existed”. Robert Silverberg from The Longest Way Home
Amsterdam University College -
Science Park Amsterdam, the international knowledge centre in the Watergraafsmeer neighbourhood is the new home for the Liberal Arts and Sciences program at the Amsterdam University College, a joint institute of the University of Amsterdam and VU University Amsterdam. Science Park is located in the eastern part of the city, close to Amsterdam’s historic seventeenth-century city centre. In September 2012, international students and professors started at the new school of 5,800 m², that can accommodate 900 students. Surrounded by other science buildings, the Science Park provides an interesting environment for the AUC with optimal opportunities for cross fertilization of ideas and talent. The park has an urban character in which buildings, landscape and public space are strongly intertwined. Science Park encompasses a program of 500,000 m² in total including office buildings, laboratories and educational facilities, hotel, conference facilities, sports and cultural programs, restaurants and housing.
Arriving from the city center or the new train station Amsterdam Science Park, the sculptural AUC building together with the Anna Hoeve historic farm house, form the new entrance to the Science Park. Mecanoo designed Amsterdam University College as an inspiring home for a community of international students and their professors. It is an inviting building with a spacious loft on top. The loft was created by placing the roof diagonally north-south. The tilting roof forms a loft where the more contained, quiet study areas and library are housed. Large voids form the heart of the building and create a visual relationship between the different floors. A staircase winds through the voids, symbolising a sense of community for its users. Distinguished spaces such as the restaurant, common room and study hall are double height. Vast windows in these rooms offer beautiful views of the surroundings. The striking façade is made of corten steel and furnishes the building with a warm yet formal presence which contrasts with the more formal architecture of the Science Park.
The AUC is a sustainable building. The Greencalc + score is set at a building index of 200. The compact building mass creates an optimal ratio between wall and floor surface and the relationship between open and closed surfaces in the facade is optimized. The building uses ground source storage and concrete thermal massing. The large roof area has a sedum roof cover that provides insulation and water storage. Sensors which detect movement and daylight monitors are also applied throughout the new building. High quality internal acoustics is achieved through the use of extensive wood wall panelling that extends from the ground floor to the upper floor ceiling. This element also provides a clear orientation point for students and visitors.

Description: These images show the interior of a finite element mesh, being the discrete unit a tetrahedron. As it is possible to see, the meshes are well structured and regular, which is an important factor for finite element analysis since a very low element distortion implicates more accurate results and higher convergence rates

SCIENCE!
I love looking at photos with supersuper high shutter speeds (1/1000 sec in this case). That tiny fraction of a second contains an entire world of things that happen so fast we don't even realize they happened at all.
The photo on the left, for instance, when the fountain is just forming. You can see a stream of Diet Coke trailing out of the paper tube we used to drop the Mentos into the bottle. In addition, There's still some actually coming out of the end of the tube, probably propelled only by inertia even after the tube's been pulled away.
And then the photo on the right. I just love the shapes that formed in the fountain. One would think it might just turn into a spray or come apart, but it clearly stays in a whole bunch of little spherical orbs of deliciousness as well as a giant, undulating snake of tooth decay.
