Vacuum Flask Chemistry - Vacuum Flask Chemistry - Learn Vacuum Flask ChemistryYou have probably heard the term 'Vacuum Flask Chemistry' used and thought it sounded interesting. It is definitely a fun way to learn chemistry and at the same time helps you learn about materials and how they react in various situations and environments.A vacuum flask is essentially a container that holds a liquid, gas or solvent, typically some sort of alcohol, and is only half as large as its volume. Inside this glass bottle, there is an airtight cap to seal it, which is commonly used to allow the substance being studied to be studied without air surrounding it which could hinder its study.To maintain the 'vacuum' in the flask, the glass is held against a wall, typically held in place by an object, such as a rubber band, with the bottom of the flask touching the bottom of the glass. This is to keep the flask's atmosphere from leaking into the glass when there is an open bottle in the flask. Using a clos ed bottle to do this, even while studying, would create an even more sealed environment where particles of liquids, gases or solvents would be trapped and thereby prevented from coming out of the flask.After you have taken your experiment into the lab to analyze, you will need to remove the flask from the lab so that it can be used. The procedure, as described above, allows you to do this without any air present. Now, you need to gather the materials you will use for your experiment.For the experiment, you may need a lab, food processing system and chemicals and then you just need to follow the procedures on the machine to prepare the chemicals, or you may need the materials to cook, mix and mash them. Either way, the lab is needed and the process described above is used.Make sure you rinse off the flask with water to remove any remaining solvents in the bottle. And also make sure you put your glass bottle back in the freezer and then put your flask in a separate container or someth ing similar so that it is protected and not exposed to heat and moisture that might cause it to collapse.Vacuum Flask Chemistry is a great way to help you learn about how materials react in various situations and environments. Once you get the hang of it, you can even do it on a more frequent basis and test different substances with different types of solvents.

LOI English Teachers Anne Fields

LOI English Teachers Anne Fields Learning English can be helpful at the professional level. That is why, nowadays, parents are willing to spend more to give children the opportunity to learn English. Because, when one is younger, the battle with learning accents, for example, can be won rather quickly. Many LOI English teachers have worked teaching children, like Anne Fields, who believes that children should start learning languages as soon as possible.Anne is currently living in Bogota, Colombia, from where she teaches English to people from around the world. She is from the United States and has lived in Argentina, Dominican Republic and Haiti. According to her, many of her students are from Brazil, Russia, Japan, Spain and the United States. I found it odd when she told me that she had students from the US, but then she explained that those who are learning English with her while living in the US are people from all over the world who moved there and now want to improve their English skills in a safe space, like an individual Skype class, where they are not judged by their mistakes.She studied French and Spanish in college, therefore she is familiar with the common struggles that any language student has to deal with. One of the things she believes is that is very important for those who are learning English is to have a patient teacher. Also, she believes that, even though she speaks other languages, her classes must given in English. Of course there are exceptions, like when the student is a beginner and does not understand a single word in English. However, Anne prefers to use hand motions, pictures, and examples to make her students stop translating their thoughts and start thinking in English. In addition to that, Anne does not like giving the correct answers without a proper explanation, for her explaining the situation is mandatory.Anne told me that some of her students ask her how much time they would need to learn English. That is obviously a tricky question, because people tend t o learn and dedicate themselves differently. So, Anne says to her students that it takes dedication, the more you practice, the faster you will learn. Besides that, Anne tells her students that the more English they experience in their daily lives, the better, so reading news and listening to music in English are some of her pieces of advice. She also tells them to change the language in their computer, smartphone and Facebook, so they start to have a daily contact with the language.

6 Facts You Probably Didnt Know About Saudi Arabia

6 Facts You Probably Didnt Know About Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia is much, much more than vast desert, camels and oil. The Middle East’s biggest nation is a vibrant hub for Arabian culture and is a highly significant location both religiously and historically. Here are some of our favorite recent facts about Saudi Arabia!1. Saudi Arabia is one of the most generous countries in the world, donating over $4 billion in aid each year to developing and disaster-torn nations.2. By 2018, Jeddah will be home to the world’s tallest building, the Kingdom Tower, which is planned to rise more than a kilometer into the air.3. The Arabian oryx, native to the country, was once classified as extinct in the wild. However, thanks to a government conservation project, the species has been reintroduced in to the desert from captivity and is making a comeback. This is the only documented case in history of an extinct animal being restored.4. The Saudi flag is completely green because of its significance in the Islamic faith. Most Islamic states incorpor ate green into their flag. The color represents peace, life and fertility.5. Riyadh, the capital city, is the 30th biggest city in the world by population and is home to over 5 million people.6. Most milk on sale in Saudi Arabia is produced by sheep, goats or camels.

Why We Need Unions

Why We Need Unions Photo from news.unioncircle.comfundamentally function to protect workers from companies and other organizations seeking to abuse their power by ignoring (or even eliminating) workers rights. They truly embody the phrase strength in numbers, as workers who are members of a union can collectively bargain for fairer wages, enhanced benefits, better work environments, or all of these aspects combined. Another important benefit of unions is that they give workers the chance to negotiate at the same level as that of upper-level management and executives, in part because a group of unified workers backed by an organization dedicated to preserving workers rights is far more powerful than a single worker doing the same.We must not forget that a workers overall performance and morale is usually connected to fair treatment in the workplace. Imagine if you had unsafe or unsanitary working conditions, were denied adequate breaks, werent paid on time, or received less payment than is required by law. At some companies, you might even be dealing with all of these situations. How motivated would you be to arrive at work everyday and perform efficiently? Not very. Like any other institution, there exist unethical companies that not only act unfairly toward employees; they also violate employees rights as guaranteed by law in their treatment. I wholeheartedly agree with Kevin Drum, a political blogger for Mother Jones, when he states that unions are also the only large-scale movement left in America that persistently acts as a countervailing power against corporate power [and]that persistently acts in the economic interests of the middle class.After all, it has often been discovered that when union membership declines, economic inequality increases. Meanwhile, eras of increased union membership correspond to raised wages for lower- and middle-class workers, therefore increasing income equality. This is obviously not in the interest of everyone, but it is in the interest of a gr eat deal of the U.S. population. There have been many conversations about increasing income equality in the recent past, and one way to help this process along is to educate workers not to mention the general population about unions. They are not communist. They are not out to take away anyones wealth. They exist simply to ensure fair treatment of workers as well as decent, livable wages. As Kevin Drum argued recently, the decline of unions over the past few decades has left corporations and the rich with essentially no powerful opposition. No matter what doubts you might have about unions and their role in the economy, never forget that destroying them destroys the only real organized check on the power of the business community in America.

The Rise of For-Profit Higher Education

The Rise of For-Profit Higher Education As Britain's second for-profit institution is granted the title of University we discuss the implications for-profit higher-ed will have on the landscape of UK education and society. In Britain we have an ingrained, congenital suspicion of the Profit Motive. Thus, predictably, when the private BPP College of Professional Studies ascended to BPP University with the government's blessing, the UCU (University and College Union) decried the move. It will Open The Floodgates, they said. It will Endanger Our Reputation, they added. We will Become Like America. But how valid are their concerns? Do they have basis, beyond our cultural phobia for the Free Market? First off, let's look at the state of play as it stands. The UK has over 200 Universities and other HE establishments, the overwhelmingly vast majority of which are nonprofit foundations, usually part-funded by the government, all of which have the autonomy to set and award their own degrees. In the 'good old days', they required no tuition fees: receiving a top-quality education was simply a matter of making the grade. Then Labour introduced the 1000 'top-up' fees. This quickly trebled to something in the region of 3000. Then, as you know, they recently trebled again to 9000 (so much for just being a 'top up') - an act which will leave all graduates with a considerable millstone of student debt to carry. Admittedly, this 'debt' isn't the scary type of debt - the debt of creditors, banks and bailiffs - but more of a 'graduate tax' that is chipped off your monthly pay, along with Inco me Tax and the like. Well, at least at the moment it is. Policy could change, and however lenient the current government may be, the fact doesn't stand for future regimes. Where do private institutions fit in to this equation? Historically, there have been a few companies that have set up low-key colleges or institutes (categorically not universities; well, until recently), which have offered courses in various limited subjects (usually business related) and have often been affiliated with international entities (the city of Oxford sports an outpost for a Saudi university, for example). They have tended to cater to niche markets, and are no way near destabilizing or replacing the conventional HE pathway. But now, private universities (a serious step-up from colleges) are clearly here to stay. Being private, they will rely heavily on tuition fees to keep afloat. Their student intake will be their life-blood, even more so than conventional universities. So the question must be asked: what would make someone choose a private institution, as opposed to taking the well-trodden path of going to uni? Surely the Benign Debt of uni is preferable to the Scary Debt of private companies? Unless, of course, the fees for such institutions were within a manageable price bracket... as currently, they are. The BPP University will charge 5000 per year for a three-year degree, a far more manageable sum than 9000, even if it's meted via Benign Debt. You see, 5000 is a sum that in conceivably in the price range for many people to pay outright (start saving now, parents), negating the debt aspect entirely. Now, if private universities decide to go the way of the States with, quite frankly, ludicrous tuition fees, then what gives? Pupils can still go to conventional unis (which, at present, are far more prestigious anyway), leaving the rich and foolish to pursue their pipe-dreams. The idea that just by having universities that charge incredible fees, the UK HE scene will somehow 'Americanize' is silly: our Ivy League lies firmly in the Conventional area of things, and it's very unlikely that Oxbridge or the Russell Group will go private any time soon (forays into the Gulf excepted). ...at least for the moment. However, if a significant number of private universities spring up, gain popularity and then raise their fees (and demonstrate that people are willing to pay those fees), there is the danger that Conventional unis could follow suit (via government reform, of course), just because they can get away with it. Then we'd see the fees arms-race of the States, and we would be in a pickle. At the moment, however, this outcome is thankfully in the realm of speculative fiction. So what benefits may private universities (alongside conventional ones) have for UK students? Straight off the bat, they seem to be providing a cheaper alternative. An indirect benefit of this lower-priced private competition may include forcing the Gov to re-think its tuition fee policies in a downwards direction (the very essence of capitalist competition), encouraging them to spend more tax dollar on subsidizing education (is there ever a better use of public money?). The lower cost of private university, driven down by competition, could also make university education even more accessible, giving more people the chance to pursue professional careers and a better quality of life. Niche universities could arise, giving students' more choice of where and what to study. There will be, in real terms, more universities, meaning even greater choice (and geographical accessibility). Universities focused on later life learning may develop, unseating the still-extant stigma of being a 'mature' student. There are also a caveat which is, in a way, a flipside of previous points. While it is entirely possible the introduction of private universities will create greater choice for students, there is a danger that, responding to market forces, they will homogenize their courses into a morass of Business Studies variants, leaving liberal arts (and indeed hard sciences) floundering by the wayside. While the argument for the usefulness of liberal arts is for another blog piece (hint: it is very necessary), we should reject anything that would limit educational prospects on principle. This feeds directly into a fundamental question surrounding HE in general, not only private unis. To what extent should HE reflect and respond to current socioeconomic pressures? In short, should HE exist for education's sake, or to act as a personnel farm for Britain's commercial sectors? One could well argue that the very act of creating private universities is a manifestation of the latter. Is that necessarily a bad thing? Equally, since taxpayer money subsidizes conventional universities, surely there is an argument for making their courses industry-led and -centered as well? In a way, this question may be becoming redundant, as many universities are already electing to drop (or cut funding to) subjects with little economic impact. These are incredibly difficult issues to which there are no clear-cut answers. In the end it comes down to ideals: the ideal of a utopian anything-goes HE system, existing for its own sake, or a pragmatic, numbers-led HE system that feeds directly into the country's larger economy, and is informed by it. We certainly seem to be transitioning from the former to the latter, which many people would argue is a regression. They would say the utopian version of HE breeds innovation and new ideas (amusingly, anyone who's experienced the tangled world of academia would probably disagree), while the proponents of pragmatism would cite its increased economic efficiency and benefit as de facto justification. A minefield indeed. The point to take home from this is that private universities aren't a boogeyman, and current universities aren't the bastion of academic purity they claim to be. They are exist within the same system and are swayed by similar forces. However, private unis will rise and fall on their own merits, unlike conventional ones, so it's unlikely that the status quo will be destabilized just yet. Instead of scaremongering, the UCU and the press in general should take a nuanced view of the issue, especially as - if nothing else - it could be the wake-up call conventional HE needs to get its fee-structuring act together.
