Chemistry Chapter 5 Quizlet - Advanced Principles

Chemistry Chapter 5 Quizlet - Advanced PrinciplesIn the Chemistry chapter 5 quizlet the students have to build a fluid from basic elements. The fluid has to be put in a glass container and a vacuum is used to pull the solution from the container to make a white fog. The blue liquid from the fluid can be put in a pot and after heating it to boiling it can be poured into a glass container. In the next step the liquid should be squeezed out of the container and put in another container.This procedure is repeated four times for a total of four liquids. After that all the liquids will be put into the flask and the two liquids, water and argon, are mixed together with a metal plate and finally they are put in a container filled with potassium hydroxide.The last step is to add the dissolved argon gas to the flask and then to let the flask to cool down. Next the students will have to mix the argon gas with the potassium hydroxide and then let the mixture cool down.The Intermediate fluid is t o be made by using sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide. For this step the flask is filled with sodium hydroxide and then it is filled with potassium hydroxide. In the next step the flask is allowed to cool down and then to be put into liquid nitrogen.The Intermediate fluid is to be made by mixing potassium hydroxide with sodium hydroxide. The flask is now filled with NaOH and the flask is put into a vessel of water. Finally, the mixture is cooled down and then dissolved in water in order to get sodium hydroxide and water.In the next step the container is filled with potassium hydroxide and the solution is squeezed out of the container and the solution is filtered to get sodium hydroxide and water. The mixture is now to be added to the flask and slowly it is heated to boil and then it is poured into a container filled with ether.The Intermediate fluid is to be made by combining potassium hydroxide with sodium hydroxide. The flask is now filled with potassium hydroxide and then i t is filled with sodium hydroxide. Finally the flask is allowed to cool down and then it is put into a vessel of ether.

Decorate With Chi Feng Shui For Health And A Better Life

Decorate With Chi Feng Shui For Health And A Better Life Photo courtesy of elledecor.com Like a roiling tornado tearing through the calmest of suburbs, the spiral staircase inhales and uproots energy in its path, spewing chaos in its wake. This may seem like an extreme, confusing example of the effect decor and home layouts have on our health and energy patterns, but ancient Feng Shui practices suggest it as a simple matter of fact: Curved staircases are best. Spiral staircases, resembling corkscrews boring into a house, are the worst, wrote Kathryn Weber of  RedLotusLetter. They become even worse if they are placed in the center of the house or by the front door. Beyond the mere spiral staircase, Feng Shui asserts that just as humans have an energy or life-forcereferred to as Chi  in Chinese medicinerunning through their bodies, all homes and spaces also contain the same flow of energy in the form of Feng Shui. This energy can be hindered or heightened depending upon the placement of certain decor in the home, and is believed to have an impact on not only residents emotional state and moods, but also their health. Before you start worrying that your home might be impacting your health negatively, however, know that simple changes can be made that dont require a total move or remodel. To Begin: Discover the Bagua Map Photo courtesy of gowithharmony.com. Originating from the I Ching, the Bagua  represents the nine energy centers of the home and specific rooms. These energy centers correspond to the specific areas in our lives such as health and family, wealth and prosperity and others listed on the map above. To discover which areas correspond to each aspect, stand at the Entrance Quadrant, aka, the front door, of your home or apartment with the map above parallel to the floor and the Entrance Quadrant touching your stomach. This will show where the areas in each quadrant of the map fall in your home, so you can then begin to organize and place objects in each of the spaces that magnify or correct its Chi. In some cases, youll want to use the Bagua Map on specific rooms; if so, simply stand at the entryway of the room of your choice, and split it up into the quadrants the same way you would the entire house. According to Care2.com: If your home is not a rectangle or square, you may be missing areas of the Bagua.  If this is the case, you can do a mini-Bagua for each room of your home and enhance the wealth corner of each room. Treat the main entrance to the room like you would the front door of the home and lay the Bagua accordingly. This energetically brings back into the space the missing area. Health: The Center of the  Bagua The Health section of the Bagua lies at its center (sometimes also in the center-left) and touches all quadrants, reiterating the point that without health one cannot be truly balanced in life. This area also represents a grounded nature and should be filled with Earth tones and stabilizing features such as paintings of landscapes and brown, yellow, or other Earth-tone paints. Care2.com also recommends avoiding placing water images and/or tones, such as mirrors, in the center area since the floaty and unstable quality of water will destabilize the earth element. The Elements and Health Along with purifying and reorganizing the center Bagua, it is important to pay attention to the use and placement of the elements throughout the home, as too much of some elements can derail efforts to increase  Chi  in an area and increase problematic health symptoms. Feng Shui recognizes five elements: fire, water, earth, wood and metal, with each working to harness a specific energy. Fire Fire encourages boldness and represents enthusiasm and leadership. With a perfect balance, fire can be an extremely inspiring force, but too much fire can cause anger, irritability and aggression. Lack of fire creates an opposing effect, causing low self-esteem, lack of inspiration and coldness. Candles, incandescent lighting and sunlight add fire to an area, while water tones such as blues minimize it. Wood Wood represents strength, intuition, creativity and expansion. Too much wood in the form of plants, furniture and paper can create stubbornness and inflexibility, while a lack of wood can cause depression and result in a lack of creativity. Metal Metal deals with the mental and intellectual, and is often represented by oval shapes, objects made with metal, stones and white or gray pastel colors. Too much metal can bring about negative thoughts, impulsive speaking tendencies and a chaotic mind, while a lack of metal can cause quietness, lack of focus and loss of motivation. Earth Earth, as reflected by the center Bagua, represents grounding and stability. An overabundance can create a heavy seriousness and boredom, while a lack can lead to chaos and disorganization. Rectangular paintings, shapes and images of landscapes represent Earth, as well as plants and any object having green, brown, yellow or gold tones. Water The water element highlights emotions and spirituality and can heighten wisdom and inspiration. Too much water can lead to a sense of feeling overwhelmed, as if you were drowning, while a lack of water can result in stress and loneliness. Water can be brought to a space through blue, green and purple tones, as well as mirrors and fountains. Common Feng Shui Mistakes and Corrections Door Opening to a Wall Doors that open directly into a wall can create the feeling of being blocked, according to Houzz.com. To correct this, Houzz recommends hanging artwork that draws the eye in, and that while mirrors are typically used as a cure in Feng Shui, one should avoid hanging a mirror reflecting back out the door, since this is essentially shuttling energy outside. Heavy Objects Hanging Overhead Heavy objects can be anything from lamps to chandeliers, and while they can add a certain modern look to a space, they can also create the subconscious stress of pushing down and worry over the object falling. Houzz recommends moving furniture such as tables or beds from directly underneath large hanging objects. Stairs Facing a Door Stairs are often referred to as raging rivers in Feng Shui because of their powerful energy-carrying properties. In the case of stairs leading down to a doorway, this essentially means all the energy of the house is flowing down the stairs and out the door a counterproductive situation. To counteract this effect, it is recommended to hang a mirror that reflects back to the stairs in order to reflect the energy back inside. It is also recommended to avoid hanging artwork in a descending fashion down stairwells, as this increases the energy flow to the door below. While implementing Feng Shui across an entire house may seem like a chore that could potentially cost a small fortune, making simple changes with mirrors and splashes of colors representing the elements in specified quadrants can be a cheap step in the right direction.

4 Ways for Students to Expand Their Vocabulary - TutorNerds

4 Ways for Students to Expand Their Vocabulary - TutorNerds 4 ways students can expand their vocabulary in any situation Many students aim to expand their vocabulary, whether theyre in elementary school learning new words or high school students preparing for college entrance exams. Its essential for students to learn different words with similar meanings as well as the emotional connotation of particular terms and phrases. Some terms are formal while others are casual and certain terms are only used in specific professions or fields, often called jargon. Additionally, ESL students want to expand their vocabulary from the bottom up so they can work towards fluency. Whatever a student’s goal is there are some ways they can expand their vocabulary and become a better writer. Expanded vocabulary practice can also improve any student’s reading comprehension skills. 1. Academic reading Students who are preparing for the SAT or ACT should think about doing a little bit of academic reading our Orange County test prep tutors are here to help you succeed. This type of reading is different from reading a novel or other fiction text because it tends to be mostly informative in nature and contains a lot of terms specific to a particular subject. Younger students can also participate in this reading as long as its age-appropriate. A student’s classroom teacher is always one of the best resources when compiling a reading list of age and skill level appropriate text for students in any grade. 2. Word of the day Students can learn new vocabulary one word at a time by using simple and easy online tools such as thesaurus.com to learn synonyms and antonyms of any particular term. Many online study tools provide suggestions that have an emotionally similar term and will also inform students which words are in current usage and which ones are archaic. Learning just one word every day is a great way to expand vocabulary overtime because it gives students a chance to absorb the meaning of a word and use it in their daily life rather than studying a list of dozens of words at once that are easily forgotten later (READ: 5 Tips for Success in English Class from a Private Irvine English Tutor). 3. Writing skills and word variety Many students will use the same word over and over again in a homework assignment or a research paper, ultimately making their writing less interesting than it could be if they were able to vary their word choice. Students are encouraged to underline or highlight words they use over and over again in their writing and look up synonyms. Students can talk with their teacher or private tutor to find out which words they tend to repeat and also determine which synonyms are the most appropriate in a specific situation. At first, students may choose synonyms with an emotional meaning that doesnt quite fit within the parameters of their assignment but, over time, students will gain the skill of word choice and become better writers. 4. Film and TV Some students understand new words better if they can hear them spoken rather than read them in a book. Students can learn tons of new vocabulary words by watching film and television shows to figure out which words are appropriate in a given conversation. Film and TV shows are especially helpful for ESL students who want to expand their vocabulary and work towards fluency. Its helpful to see a character’s reaction to certain words or phrases and determine if they were used in a comic or dramatic situation. ESL students will also be able to pick up on the formality of a situation and determine if they should be using that word in a professional situation or only in a casual discussion with close friends. Our in-home Irvine English tutors are here to help your child expand their vocabulary. All blog entries, with the exception of guest bloggers, are written by Tutor Nerds.

How to Properly Showcase Your Internships on Your Resume

How to Properly Showcase Your Internships on Your Resume Photo Via: Pixabay.com 1. List Everything Relevant First, and easily most importantly, you should be listing all relevant experience on your resume, which includes internships. Basically, you need to think ahead to the position you are aiming for, the field that its in, the responsibilities you should have to hold this position and what they are asking for as requirements. In this way, you should match your relevant internship experience to the position at hand. For instance, if you worked at a radio show 3 days a week but you are applying to an office position, odds are the radio experience isn’t as relevant. For this reason, first ensure you are focusing on the tasks, positions and experience that is the most relevant to the position that you are applying for. 2. Prioritize Over Part-Time Positions Holding part-time positions throughout your college career is also known as a bit of a resume booster. That being said, when you are looking at prioritizing your resume, your part-time jobs should fall second to your internships, so long as your internships are more relevant to the position that you are applying to. This means that if you have experience working as a Starbucks barista and then held an internship through which you edited content for a publication, in applying to a position at a magazine, you should be listing your internship experience before your part-time barista job experience. While most employers will want to see that you have done both, it’s more important to the job you are applying for that you prioritize the internship experience, as it’s more relevant to the position you’re applying for. 3. Elaborate on All Responsibilities As previously stated, some internship experience can be pertinent to the position you are applying to, no matter how menial the task may seem. For this reason, you should certainly be including all of your responsibilities on your resume. For each internship that you are listing on your resume, you should be listing all of the tasks that you performed in that position. While it may seem a bit redundant and overwhelming, it’s best to first include all of your tasks, then remove some until you feel that the bullet point fully encompass that position. Again, you never know what responsibilities are going to resonate with an employer, so, especially when you are working with minimal experience, listing everything that you did in a given internship is going to set you apart form the competition more than you know. 4. Include Important Date Information When you are listing your internship experience, it may not feel all that important, but you should always list your dates of employment. When it comes down to it, including your dates of employment lets the potential employers know your work history in full. For instance, was this a contract position that lasted 3 months, or was it a long-term internship that was cut short? Or was it a long-term position that you stuck out the whole way through. These dates can tell an employer the full story, so you’ll want to include them in your resume if they strengthen the story you are trying to tell. Infographic Via Canva 5. Note Reference Availability When you don’t have a lot of experience, to begin with, as is typically the case with entry-level applicants, it’s hard to sell yourself on paper, as there really isn’t all that much to work with. For that reason, you should be including information regarding your references. For instance, rather than sending along a resume that just doesn’t tell the whole story, you should be noting your reference’s availability upon request. Note that you never want to include your reference’s information right away, but rather want to note that references are available upon request to ensure the potential employer knows that your work was strong enough that you were able to garner references. Also make sure that when you are picking out your references, that you are using the most important positions on your resume. For instance, you don’t want to note your reference as your manager at McDonald’s when the more relevant experience is your internship with the school newspaper. So be sure that you are not only including the fact that references are available, but that you have saved references that are actually applicable to the position you are applying to and that they can back up your most relevant experience. 6. Focus on the Pertinent Tasks As previously stated, you should be including all relevant tasks in your resume. To begin, you should always list out all of your responsibilities, then you can hone in on the most important tasks as you work through your entire resume. In this way, you should be focusing more strongly on the tasks that are pertinent to the position you are applying to. The best way to manage this is to have a copy of your resume that lists out every task that you performed in a given position. From here, every time you apply to a new position, you should be focusing your resume based on the position at hand, removing the tasks and responsibilities that are less pertinent to the position. For instance, if you are applying to a position at a publication, you should be including your writing and editing experience, but your experience scheduling and booking flights for an executive is less pertinent to that position. 7. Include More than Less Information On this same note, you definitely want to include more information than less, but you don’t want your resume to be too long, either. As a general rule of thumb, and especially if you don’t have years of experience, you should only be listing one page worth of experience. Generally speaking, employers don’t want to see more than one page of experience, as they are looking to skim your resume and determine whether or not you are a candidate that they wish to invite in for an interview. For this reason, you want to include all of the experience that’s potentially relevant that you can fit on that one page. Still, you don’t want the resume to appear over-crowded or to go over the one-page threshold as an entry-level candidate. With these items in mind, as previously mentioned, include all your experience and then subtract and add as needed based on the position that you are applying for. The more tailored you can make your resume to the position in question, the more likely you are to catch the potential employer’s eye as he/she is skimming through and choosing the right resumes for the job. 8.  Note Any Achievements As far as pertinent information goes on your resume, you should always be noting any and all achievements from your internships on your resume. While you always want to include your academic achievements in this section of your resume, it’s also very important that you are noting your internship achievements, if applicable, as these are going to be the most relevant when you are applying to new positions, especially as a first-time applicant. For this reason, you should be noting whether or not you received any awards at the company you interned with if there are any other items of note that you won and/or earned, or simply if you had any outstanding achievements throughout the internship that should be noted on your resume. Remember that your resume is the perfect time to showcase your skills and accomplishments, which means that it’s not bragging, but rather in your best interest, to include every relevant achievement on your resume. Photo Via: Pixabay.com 9. Note Any Promotions/Responsibility Changes In this same vein, you should always be noting any promotions and/or changes in responsibility at all of your internships. While it’s rare for interns to be promoted, there are many interns that will be taken from intern to part-time or full-time employee, which does fall in this promotion category. If this is the case, you should be showcasing that change in title on your resume. Basically, you do this in listing the positions separately on the resume, one that outlines your position, dates and responsibilities for the internship, and another that outlines the position, dates and responsibilities for the promoted position. In this way, your potential employer sees that you have experience as an intern and as an employee, but also that you were able to move up in that company, which speaks volumes to your work ethic and the potential you have at the company that you are applying for. Employers frequently look for title changes and other similar information when they are screening candidates, so to have this as an entry-level applicant is going to set you far apart from the competition. So while the position change may seem miniscule, it’s going to speak volumes to a potential employer. So don’t leave it out of your resume, or limit your resume to only one of the titles that you held at that company. 10. Prioritize Internships Over One Another Last, but definitely not least, you should certainly be prioritizing your internships over one another. While your internships likely all feel equally important to you, certain internships are going to be more important to employers than others. For this reason, if you are one of those individuals that held multiple internships throughout your college career, you will need to prioritize your internship experience when you are crafting your resume. In this way, you should outline every single internship that you had throughout college. From here, you should limit your internship experience to one, full page of internships. Then, you can list out all the tasks for those internships. Finally, you can remove the tasks that are not relevant to the position that you are applying for. As previously stated, you don’t want a resume that’s so long an employer won’t bother reading it, but you do want to include as much information as possible to showcase your experience as it relates to the position you are applying for. As such, you should always outline absolutely everything that you can and, from here, you can hone in the important details to make sure that your resume is completely tailored and oriented towards the position that you are applying for. Again, holding internships throughout college is in your best interest, as they are frequently referred to as resume boosters. That being said, it’s imperative that you leverage these internships when writing your resume to ensure that all potential employers have a full understanding of your qualifications and background. Writing a resume is no easy feat, especially when you are an entry-level applicant, but there are certainly ways to ensure that you are a strong contender when it comes to a new position simply based on the way that you format, layout and fill out your resume. The above ten tips are a helpful starting point in ensuring that your resume is saying all that it should be, but it’s also a good idea to attend resume building classes, seminars and workshops to really focus on creating and maintaining an effective resume, at the beginning of and throughout your career. No matter how you build it out, your resume is the means through which you will earn a new position, so make sure that you are fully committed to making it the best that it can be.

3 Key Rules for Successfully Learning a New Language Online

3 Key Rules for Successfully Learning a New Language Online Wondering if online language learning  is for real?If so, you probably have a lot of questions running through your head:Is learning a language online just some weird fad, or is it actually a thing that works?Do people really  start  learning  languages on the Internet, without  classrooms, lectures or professors?Can you seriously  learn a language while sitting at home in your pajamas?Good questions, you critical thinker, you!The Internet is a wonderful tool for language learning, but like all tools, you must learn to wield it properly.Think of it like a hammer: Its incredibly useful, but if youre not using it right, you could end up smashing your fingers.In language learning, as in other areas of life, sticking to certain fundamental principles will help you avoid unpleasantness and regret.Here, I’m gonna give you three simple rules to follow in order to get the maximum benefit  from your language learning  online.But first, lets reflect on how great it is to live in a time in wh ich online language learning is possible. Why Learn a Language Online?The “classrooms” never closeImagine a classroom that never closes. Now, that might not sound too great at first, but remember, were not talking about the dreaded classrooms of yore where a teacher is holding a stick, pointing at the board and about to call your name any second.An online “classroom” is an app, course  or program that you can access anytime, anywhereâ€"freeing you from the limitations of routines, schedules and geography. You now have more control over the learning process. You (and only you) decide when to learn, where to learn and how to learn.Because “classes” never close, how fast you learn is up to you. You wanna be productive while standing in line at the ATM? Whip out your phone and learn vocabulary. Cant sleep? Go online and play language games. Youll be acquiring fluency without even thinking about it.Imagine a teacher available 24/7, who teaches perfectly at 2 p.m. or at 2 a. m. Who doesnt care how you dress. Who doesnt give you an evil glare when you say (for the fourth  time), “Can you please repeat that last one? Im not sure I got it.”Language learners a generation ago would have to free up a regular chunk of their day or week in order to get some lessons. Not anymore. You now have the freedom and flexibility to learn a language without missing out on other things youve got on your plate. Need to pick up a relative at the airport? No problem, you dont have to skip class. Heck, you can go to class while waiting for the plane to land. Got a season finale you just cant miss? No worries, go to class 40 minutes laterâ€"or, you know, after the monumental shock of the twist ending subsides.Cheap or free: Your choiceNot only does online learning exist in a perpetual loop, but youre given the choice of getting it all for free or for the price of a burrito. Yes, you have a choice of free and almost free. You may have to shell out some money. After all, lang uage learning websites are still businessesâ€"but because of the way their costs are structured, they can give out a lot of learning material for free, and a lot more for an affordable price. You can get lessons  at prices so low youre tempted to ask, “What’s the catch?”In this age, when the saying “There’s no such thing as a free lunch” is slowly giving way to “It’s a buffet all the way,” the ultimate winner is you, the language learner. Whereas before youd have to spend so much in order to learn so little, today you can learn a truckload without breaking the bank.Imagine reaching fluency  in German, French, Spanish, Japanese or Chinese and skyrocketing your professional and personal lifeâ€"at the price of a cupcake!Something tells me that’s a pretty good deal.Smart use of multimedia: Grandpa never had thoseAnd here’s the kicker. Wait, are you ready? Here goes: Not only do online classes never ever close, and not only are they served for affordable prices on a silver platter, but some of them have been structured so that it feels like youre just watching TV or playing video games.In the age of modern language learning, its possible to integrate game and quiz formats, as well as video clips and cool visuals, into lessons. This enables you to become so engaged in different activities that you forget youre already converting short-term to long-term memory.FluentU, for instance,  takes real-world videosâ€"like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talksâ€"and turns them into memorable personalized language learning lessons that benefit all from absolute beginners to the highly advanced.In the time it takes classroom instructors to tape their handwritten visual aids on  the board, youre already done with a lesson or two. (Not even to mention that those visual aids often drop to the floor, contingent on the quality of the tape.)Studies  have shown that multimedia enhances memory and learning. So not only are you having fun, youre al so learning more effectively.Grandpa never had the gadgets and programs you have at your disposal today. For the first time ever, we have the kind of tools  that practically make learning synonymous to breathing.Now that Ive whetted your appetite for online language learning, I’m gonna give you three smart rules to live by in order to get the most out of these online opportunities. These three rules will not only lead the way to acquiring a new language, they’ll make sure that you acquire it in the most efficient, effective and cost-savvy manner.Read on and separate yourself from the crowd.3 Key Rules for Successfully Learning a New Language Online1. Be smart with your optionsWhen looking for language learning options, as with anything else, the Google search bar is like a portal to a humongous candy store. Once you hit “Enter” on that search bar, youll be taken inside a massive store that houses all sorts of candies, goodies and chocolates that would make the phrase “spoi lt for choice” seem inadequate. You have gummy bears, gobstoppers, gumdrops and Gushers galore! You have candy canes, mint candy, chocolate candy and even vegan candies. Dont forget the MMs, Hershey’s, Snickers, Twizzlers, Reese’s, Butterfinger, Twix and Babe Ruth.You wanna learn a new language online? You have a choice between videos, e-books, audiobooks, podcasts, apps, language partners  and online courses. Or any combination of those.Take a breather and pause. Dont get overwhelmed. Know that you dont have to go through all of these options or get all of them in order to learn your target language.Because here’s the thing: Not all language learning materials are created equal. Youll have to pick and choose. Filter the materials and use only those that are right for you.Here are some tips for choosing your material:Choose material that suits your learning style. If youre an auditory dude, for example, then have a go with audiobooks and podcasts.Choose material that suits y our particular level. If youre an absolute beginner, youll lose steam and motivation when you start off with intermediate level material. Then youll be thinking, “Maybe German’s just not for me.”Choose material that engages your target skill. Do you wanna speak, read or write your target language? If writing is your desired skill, then check out e-books that teach you the fundamentals of grammar and punctuation.When reading reviews of materials, lop off the 1 and 5 ratings. Meaning, don’t trust so much both the glaring and scathing reviews. Focus instead on the 3 ratings that talk about both the positive and negative aspects of the product. This way, you can better gauge if the material is suitable for you.2. Be smart with your  timeIn this age of perpetual distractions, you need to carve out time solely dedicated to learning a language.If you go fishing for the secrets of the language learning superstars, one of your major takeaways will be the consistency with which they d edicate time to just learning the language. They commit a regular block of their online time to learning and honing their target language. It’s not that theyre geniuses. Theyre just better at blocking out distractions and focusing on their goals.You need to do the same and carve out time for the sole purpose of getting your Mandarin right.Notice that youre using the same gadget (phone, tablet or computer) for language learning and for doing a host of other things like catching up with friends, researching homework, giving in to the temptation to check out an exs profiles, reading the funniest blogs or hunting for the best prices.In addition to the infinite number of language offerings online, there’s also an infinite number of things you can do with the Internet. You can chat, edit your Instagram  pics, write comments on Facebook  or get lost ever deeper into YouTube.All of these take precious time away from learning your target language.Solution: Instead of letting these other activities become “distractors,” why not integrate language learning into your daily routine?In addition to the regular block of time solely dedicated to your target language, you can increase your learning efficiency by embedding the target language into your regular online activities.Here are some ways to do it:Change the language settings of your phone to your target language. Do the same with your Facebook, Instagram  and YouTube  accounts. It will seem awkward at first, but you will soon be having the complete Facebook experience in French.Watch YouTube videos that both interest you and are in the language that you wanna learn. Youll gradually be attuned to the rhymes and rhythms of your target language.Follow the Instagram accounts of people speaking your target language and read the comments on their pics. Youll get to see how native speakers converse in their language.3. Be smart with your networkSome people think that online learning is lonely, that it’s just you in y our pajamas in your room, slogging through your target language.Au contraire! You do have a language learning network! (You just have to start using it.)One of the best things about online learning is that you suddenly realize you are not alone. There’s a whole earth full of people out there who have the same goals as you, love the same target language you do and make the same grammar mistakes you make.Youll also realize that there are truly millions of people who want you to succeed in your endeavorâ€"native speakers  wholl patiently write long answers to your linguistic and cultural questions, wholl excitedly get on Skype  to hear you butcher their language and be compassionate enough to guide you to correct pronunciation.There are communities upon  communities online who are ready, willing and able to pull you from any sticking point in your journey, pat you on the back and say, “That’s alright, try again!”When you feel like it’s just you, know that there’s an army of  language learners, native speakers, tutors and teachers wholl make learning a language a personal, cultural and uplifting experience. You just need to tap into this vast resource.Here are some ways to do it:Take advantage of online forums.  You can find online language learning forums in a lot of different places online.Fluent in 3 Months is run by Benny Lewisâ€"the globetrotting Irish polyglot who loves to tell people that its okay to make mistakes. The forum on his site is tremendously helpful and is one of the most closely-knit groups online.Busuu  is considered the largest social networking site for language learners. Its one of the best places to hunt for native speakers, especially for rare languages.Duolingo  is a social force in online learning. Go to its forum and ask away. Youre bound to land friendships with like-minded souls there.Livemocha  is a community of language learners. By helping others, like serving as  a language partner for someone  practicing your native t ongue, you can earn points that allow you to unlock more and more content pertaining to your target language. So by helping others, youre also helping yourself. Thats what networking is all about.Dont just be a lurker, though. Open up! Be active in forums and write your questions or share your experience. You might even be surprised at how kind and funny other language learners are.Find as many language partners as possible.  You have plenty of options for language partners, so dont be shy!italki  is one of the most famous language exchange sites and covers all of the major languages.Interpals  is a good place to find language partners if you have international romance in mind.

Strongest Bond in Chemistry - Is Science Created Equal to Morality?

Strongest Bond in Chemistry - Is Science Created Equal to Morality?One of the strongest bonds in chemistry is the one between science and nature. The two are often seen as antithetical, and for many years this relationship has been strong and the themes of science fiction have explored how science and the supernatural go hand in hand. Science has been largely credited with creating modern man; but what else are they responsible for? The answer is that science has enabled us to explore the mysteries of nature and discover the values in life, whether these be the morals of a person or the best manner of loving one another.Today we know that science and the moral universe were inextricably linked, but it was only in the 20th century that scientists began to make the connection between science and morality. However, it is interesting to note that in most societies around the world, people go about their lives most of the time ignoring the moral aspect of science, even though they are dee ply convinced of its benefits. Perhaps this is because science is not viewed as a source of information that can be used for making moral decisions, but as something to be dispensed with.This weak and impotent bond, this feeling that science is inherently capable of meddling with the fabric of morality, would seem to indicate that morality is a strong bond in chemistry. But actually, science and morality go hand in hand, because it is through morality that the bonds of morality are established. The new generation is being taught in schools that morality is a matter of personal choice, but for many years, this was considered heresy.Though you may be curious about the origins of this concept, moral lessons have been taught since the beginning of the world, but especially in these modern times, in a culture that seeks to deny any connection between science and morality, such lessons are anathema. At the same time, morality is increasingly being viewed as something we are born with, rat her than something we learn in school, which is in stark contrast to the viewpoint of society.There has also been an attempt to undermine the idea that morality is founded on science, but what this assertion really suggests is that morality is not influenced by science, in fact, morality is the product of a systematic study of the connections between science and the moral universe. This is highly controversial, but there are those who argue that religion is responsible for ignoring the role that science plays in morality.In other words, if we are going to support a negative view of morality, then we must be supporting a view of morality based on one individual or group, rather than all members of society having a similar view of what is right and wrong. If morality is all down to one man or woman, then what does it say about the morality of society? Is it fair to say that no one is truly moral?Moralists believe that society should not be told what is right and wrong, but should be t aught to respect each other as human beings. Thus, it is the duty of science to tell us about the implications of our actions, so that we can form moral judgments. And for some reason, it seems that moral teachings are more important than moral action, which implies that ethics is not really based on knowledge of the consequences of our actions, but the lack of knowledge, and that science is seen as the final arbiter of what is right and wrong.
