The Drink That Fuelled a Nation's Art
http://www.tate.org.uk/tateetc/issue5/thedrink.htm
[NOTE: Other pages from http://www.tate.org.uk/ previously posted. - Phyllis ]

Today's site, from a publication of the famous Tate Museum in Britain,
offers a fascinating essay on the relationship of art and a peculiarly
French drink, absinthe. Gentle Subscribers will discover a riveting
presentation of illustrated commentary on the artists of late 19th and
early 20th century France whose fondness for this remarkable 136 proof,
bitter-tasting drink became legendary.

"'What is there in absinthe that makes it a separate cult? Even in ruin and
in degradation it remains a thing apart: its victims wear a ghastly aureole
all their own, and in their peculiar hell yet gloat with a sinister
perversion of pride that they are not as other men' - Aleister Crowley, The
Green Goddess (1918) ... In the second half of the nineteenth century
absinthe became commonly known as "the queen of poisons" and in France was
considered responsible for a range of social changes - from an increase in
numbers incarcerated in asylums, to trade union unrest and even women's
emancipation." - from the website

This article, by Jad Adams, author of "Hideous Absinthe: A History of the
Devil in a Bottle", documents the artists, such as Toulouse-Lautrec,
Gauguin, and van Gogh who drank absinthe or displayed it in their
paintings. Poster advertisements of the period convey the initial product
boost for absinthe and the later grim warnings before it was finally
banned. (Keen gardeners may note that wormwood, from which the absinthe
toxin is obtained, is the common name for their sprightly Artemisia
absinthium.) Among the highlights of the essay are the notes on Degas'
"L'Absinthe", the iconic painting of the period and its hostile reception
at Christie's auction in 1892.

Shortened URL: http://tinyurl.com/4n3syp
Thomson Scientific has created this fine site in order to provide science
educators with a wide array of activities that can be used in the classroom.
Currently, the site features over 190 resources related to various areas of
biology. Visitors can search through the resources by subject, geography,
or organism. These resources include a primer on the antlion (also known as
a doodlebug) and "Bugnet" which is an online forest entomology class.
Visitors can also glance over a glossary of zoology terms and look over news
from the world of taxonomy. [KMG]

Jazz Old Time Online [Real Player]
http://www.jazz-on-line.com/index.htm

For fans of jazz, the Jazz Old Time site will be a fun way to listen to few
well-known chestnuts from the early days of this musical idiom. Of course,
those who don't know much about jazz will appreciate listening to a few new
artists as well. The site features over 18,000 songs in the public domain,
and visitors can browse through the selections by artists or take a look at
a few sample playlists. As one might suspect, artists like King Oliver,
Meade Lux Lewis, and Louis Armstrong are featured prominently, though early
recordings from later artists, such as Stan Getz, are also available. The
site might also be recommended to students in a music appreciation course.

Exploring 20th Century London
http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/

>From the expansion of the Underground to the waves of new arrivals from the
British colonies, London was greatly transformed through the 20th century.
Recently, several London institutions, including the Museum of London,
combed through their respective resources to create this interactive exhibit
and archive that would tell visitors a bit about the city's evolution during
those 100 years. The materials can be viewed through three sections:
"Timeline", "Themes", and "Places". In the "Timeline" section, visitors can
browse through featured objects and also learn about major events during the
period. Moving on, the "Themes" area organizes the city's recent past into
topical areas that focus on art and design, the built environment, ethnic
communities, and leisure activities. The "Places" section features a
clickable map of London's boroughs which reveals artifacts from each of
these respective areas. [KMG]

Theft of Mona Lisa
http://www.pbs.org/treasuresoftheworld/a_nav/mona_nav/main_monafrm.html
Shortened URL: http://tinyurl.com/6p76fp

At the center of what is arguably the world's most famous painting is a
woman who has been the source of much controversy over the past five hundred
years. The identity of Mona Lisa has been the source of some consternation,
as generations of scholars have searched for incontrovertible proof of her
identity. Recently, a researcher at the University of Heidelberg found the
necessary evidence in the margins of a book written by a friend of Leonardo
da Vinci. The painting is called La Gioconda in Italian, which led early
observers to comment that it was most likely a portrait of Lisa del
Giocondo, wife of Florentine businessman Francesco del Giocondo. This most
recent discovery effectively ended all potential doubts about the
identification, as the researcher in Germany found notes from da Vinci's
friend that noted the artist was working on her portrait. [KMG]

The first link will take users to an article from this Wednesday's Boston
Globe about this recent discovery. The second link will whisk users away to
a piece in the Toronto Star about some of Mona Lisa's distant relatives.
Moving on, the third link leads to a fascinating online exploration into the
painting offered up by the Louvre Museum. The fourth link leads to a
presentation of "alternate" versions of the Mona Lisa from the Exploratorium
in San Francisco. The genius of da Vinci's drafting abilities is the subject
of the fifth link, which allows visitors to look at some of his work from
the Metropolitan Museum of Art and listen to audio commentaries by scholars
and curators. The final link leads to a site from PBS that explores the
theft of the Mona Lisa on August 21st, 1911. [KMG]

Brain Food: Word Puzzles
http://www.rinkworks.com/brainfood/c/word.shtml

Brain Food - Puzzles For the Brain To Gnaw On
http://www.rinkworks.com/brainfood/

Ages: 10 and up (Young readers may be able to do some of these activities
with a little help from mom or dad.)

This website offers a variety of interactive word puzzles and games that
will enhance your Language Arts curriculum. When you get to the site you
will see a menu of word activities that include:

*Word Searches - Find the hidden words themed around topics such as: The
Body, Medieval Times, Varieties of Cheese, Horses, The Bible, Winter,
Palindromes, Aviation, North American Birds, Car Parts, Calendar, Vowels -
and many, many more. Just keep clicking the "next" button at the bottom of
each page to see them all.

*Associated Words - Think of a single word that goes with the word given, to
form a compound word.

*Word Fragments - Using the word fragment provided, think of a word that
contains the fragment -- that is, you must form a word by adding letters to
the beginning and/or the end of the fragment.

*Garbled Proverbs - In each of these puzzles, a proverb is written with
exactly one letter of each word replaced with another. Can you figure out
what the original proverb is?

*Cryptograms - Cryptograms are encoded sayings or quotations where each
letter has been substituted for another. Can you decode them?

*Language Puzzles - Challenging puzzles about words and language. Put your
thinking cap on!

When you are through exploring the "Word Puzzles" portion of the site, you
may want to try the "Word Boxes." Word Boxes are like miniature crossword
puzzles, except that each word is filled in across and down the grid. If you
want to try and solve some, here's the direct link:
http://www.rinkworks.com/brainfood/c/box.shtml

This site has number and logic puzzles too. In fact, there is so much
content here that I was unable to review it all. Therefore, AS ALWAYS,
parents should preview the site to determine suitability for their own
children.

TEACHING ABOUT EARTHQUAKES USGS, (suggested by Cher Cunningham,
Science Information and Education Office, USGS), This interesting teaching
kit uses video simulations of shaking during the 1906 earthquake as a
backdrop for learning about the science of earthquakes and the hazards that
are produced during a real event. The site links to a Living in Earthquake
Country Teaching Box that was prepared collaboratively in 2005 with other
teaching and science organizations for educators.

KILAUEA VOLCANO - 25 YEARS OF CONTINUOUS ERUPTIONS, (suggested by Liz
Colvard, Science Information and Education, USGS), As of January 3, 2008,
Kilauea Volcano on the island of Hawai'i has been erupting almost
continuously for twenty-five years. During this eruptive period, Kilauea has
produced lava covering 46 square miles - a volume equivalent to the amount
of lava that would cover the District of Columbia to a depth of 62 feet.

EARTH LEARNING IDEA, (suggested by David Smith), December's Earth
Learning Idea activity is an activity on the internal structure of rocks and
the resulting porosity. I've never seen rocks approached this way before,
but I think I like it and the modeling approach is one that I am predisposed
to think highly of (I've been working lately with some teachers who are
implementing Modeling Physics and Modeling Chemistry, which are truly
exemplary high school science curricula). The activity is linked from the
Earth Learning Ideas blog at:

AMERICAN EXPERIENCE reprises ELEANOR ROOSEVELT

PBS:
On TV Monday: Eleanor Roosevelt
June 16, 2008 at 9pm (check local listings)
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/eleanor/

For more than thirty years, she was the most powerful woman in America. Niece of one president and wife of another, Eleanor Roosevelt was at the center of much of this century's history -- a charismatic woman of charm and of contradictions. Aristocratic in voice and manner, she was also "tough as nails," says historian Geoffrey Ward. "In fact, she was one of the best politicians of the twentieth century."

To admirers, she was a woman with immense moral and physical courage; through her newspaper columns, radio broadcasts, and public appearances, she seemed to be a familiar friend. Her detractors saw her as a dangerous meddler, a dilettante, a traitor to her class. She was criticized for her socialist leanings, her "overreaching" role as first lady, and was seen by many during her husband's administrations as politically naive. Determined to live life on her own terms, Eleanor Roosevelt traveled far from her sheltered beginnings to become one of America's most admired figures.

FBI File

While the FBI never launched a formal investigation, Eleanor
Roosevelt amassed one of the largest single files in J. Edgar
Hoover's collection -- it comprised more than 3,000 pages. See a
sample of files and memos on the first lady.

Roosevelt Family Tree
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/eleanor/sfeature/tree.html

related were they, and how were they related to President
Theodore Roosevelt? Check out this family tree to find out.

My Day
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/eleanor/sfeature/myday.html
Eleanor Roosevelt's "My Day" was a syndicated newspaper column
published from 1935 to 1962. The column reached millions of
Americans with her views on social and political issues, current
and historical events, and her private and public life. Read her
columns in this special feature.

Folklore and Mythology Electronic Texts
http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/folktexts.html

Almost every culture throughout the world has a long tradition of folklore
and myths, with some of the tales having dozens of variations and
permutations. Retired professor D.L Ashliman has placed hundreds of these
tales on this well-designed website for the edification of the web-browsing
public. While the site does not have an internal search engine, visitors can
look through the available materials alphabetically. Here visitors can read
the story of Androcles and the Lion, the Bear Trainer and His Cat, and the
Hand of Glory, which includes legends about magic lights made from human
hands. Professor Ashliman has also contributed a number of original thought-
provoking essays on such topic as Censorship in Folklore, Aging and Death in
Folklore, and the topic of changelings. Overall, this is a fine site for
those looking to explore the vast world of folklore and its many
manifestations through a number of varying cultural traditions. [KMG]

The Best of Legends
http://bestoflegends.org/
From the site:
“For over a thousand years, storytellers have spun tales of King Arthur of Britain, his Queen Guinevere, and the circle of his noble Knights. Why do these stories endure? How does an outlaw in Lincoln green with a taste for disguise and foolery survive for six hundred years to inspire disguised tricksters from Alta California to Revolutionary France to the farthest reaches of the galaxy?

“How have these songs and stories twisted and turned over the centuries, and how have they defined our expectations of heroism, romance, and adventure?

“For ten years, from 1997 to 2007, Legends chronicled my personal journey through the worlds of Robin Hood, King Arthur, D'Artagnan, and other swashbuckling characters of balladry, fiction, and film, from the shores of Avalon to the dungeons of Zenda.

Site of the Day, for Thursday, January 3, 2008

A Century of Chairs
http://www.designmuseum.org/exhibitions/online/a-century-of-chairs

Today's site, from London's Design Museum, offers a noteworthy exhibition
on chairs from its wide ranging collection. Ironically, for an institution
specializing in design, the exhibit's online presentation lacks a user
friendly orientation. Gentle Subscribers, however, will find a surprisingly
interesting exhibit for one devoted exclusively to an object as mundane as
the humble chair.

"Few objects tell the history of modern design as eloquently as the chair.
Aesthetics trends, the emergence of new technologies, ergonomics, social
and cultural developments are all reflected in the evolution of chair
design. This installation of chairs from the Design Museum Collection shows
how the design of the chair has evolved from Michael Thonet's invention of
mass-manufactured furniture in the late 1800s and the early Modern Movement
chairs of the early 1900s to the technologically advanced chairs of today."
- from the website

The significant recognition factor of the chairs assembled for this
exhibit, along with the chronological presentation and accompanying
commentary make this a fascinating site. Each decade begins with an
overview briefly summarizing the influences and design direction of the
period, followed by notes on its most representative pieces. From fabled
European designers of the twenties, such as Marcel Breuer, Mies van der
Rohe and Le Corbusier, to 1950's America and the renowned husband and wife
design team of Charles and Ray Eames, to 80's Memphis from the Milan
designer Ettore Sottsass, the exhibit highlights outstanding chairs from
every decade.

Note: A tabbed browser is the most convenient way to view the exhibit.

AASC Feature of the Month: June 2008
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2008

The Oxford African American Studies Center’s Feature of the Month

This month’s Feature focuses on African American contributions to the Second World War.
http://www.oxfordaasc.com/public/features/current/index.jsp

BATTLES WON AND LOST
As in previous wars, African Americans faced white resistance and segregated conditions both within the military and on the home front. Yet, the war years also witnessed a number of firsts, advancements, and breakthroughs for the black community. While African Americans still made up only a small percentage of combat forces and fought in segregated units, the foundation was laid for the integration of the armed services by order of President Truman in 1948. At home, the war effort fueled the migration of blacks out of the South to the industrial cities of the North. This demographic shift often resulted in racial tension and riots, as in Detroit in 1943. However, it also made possible the inclusion of African Americans into labor organizations such as the United Automobile Workers or the United Steelworkers, and encouraged the growth of a relatively prosperous black middle class. For a more in-depth look at this topic, a Photo Essay is available. http://www.oxfordaasc.com/public/features/current/photo_essay.jsp?page=1

Welcome to MOSART
http://www.cfa.harvard.edu/smgphp/mosart/
From the site:
“I’m teaching, but they’re not learning!”
“This is one of the most common laments from educators. Your students may perform well on your assessment instruments, yet say things in class which leave you wondering if they really understand the underlying concepts. Or perhaps you’re at the beginning of a unit and are unsure about what your students already know. Which concepts do they already grasp, and which will you have to address? If any of these doubts and questions sound familiar, then the MOSART project was designed to help you.

“The acronym MOSART stands for:
Misconceptions-Oriented: The project recognizes that students do not come to your class as “blank slates” but rather have their own theories.
Standards-based: The NRC NSES comprise a unifying thread among all MOSART items and tests.
Assessement Resources for Teachers: The project provides educators with multiple-choice tests that can be used to assess their students’ understanding of this content.

“The MOSART tests are available free to all educators; however, since their structure and use differs from many assessment instruments you may be familiar with, we require anyone seeking access to these instruments to complete a tutorial in their correct application. To start your tutorial and gain access to the tests, first create a new user account on the left (user accounts are free). Once you have created your account you can log in using the same email address and password. The site will keep track of your progress through the tutorial, and give you direct access to the tests once the tutorial is complete.”

Hi! It's Thursday, January 3, 2008 and time for History at ClickSchooling!

Recommended Website
U.S. History
http://www.ushistory.org/
[NOTE: Previously posted. - Phyllis ]

Age Range: 9 and up (younger children and non-readers will need assistance)

ClickSchooling list member Melissa recommended this website sponsored by The
Independence Hall Association (IHA) whose mission is to educate the public
about the Revolutionary and Colonial eras of American history - as well as
Philadelphia history.

Interestingly, we have featured segments of this site -- on Ben Franklin and
Betsy Ross in 2001, and about Philadelphia in 2003 -- but have never
featured the entire site. It's about time we did, as they have added many
new multi-media features that will supplement any study of U.S. history.

The IHA has created what they call a "Congress of Websites" under the
umbrella of USHistory.org. Each of these mini-websites focuses on a
particular topic that includes:

-American Anti-Slavery and Civil Rights Timeline
-Commodore John Barry
-Betsy Ross House
-Declaration of Independence
-Germantown
-Liberty Bell
-Thomas Paine
-Revolutionary War
-7 Tours Thru Historic Philadelphia
-Town Criers
-Valley Forge
-Washington Crossing
-William Penn
-and many other topics!

This site also offers extensive information on Benjamin Franklin - whose
birthday happens to be January 17th! Here's the direct link:
http://www.ushistory.org/franklin/index.htm

When you get to the site you'll see several menus that include, "Featured
Sites, "What's Hot," and the "Congress of Websites." Click on any topic of
interest and a new page opens to an educational adventure in American
history.

Bookmark this one for future reference.
