Extra Resources

Posted on February 22, 2008.

Time to work on embedding more items…
Here’s a little item that was too big to work as a sidebar widget–the text got all scrunched down and was impossible to read: Resources for English Students at E.P.I.E.:

(hmmmmm… i guess widgets can only go into widget boxes on the sidebar…)
Now… let’s try the Language Learning [...]

Passion + Week 4, Task #1

Posted on February 22, 2008.

Both Paul + Konrad discuss a common phenomenon: being lost in the moment, or “flow” [says Konrad], or “passion-driven” inquiry [says Paul]. Anyone who has experienced being totally focused and immersed in their work, to such an extent that time stands still, knows how wonderfully, highly productive and satisfying this can be.

5 things the other participants don’t know about me…

Posted on February 5, 2008.

Since this is meant to be a tagging exercise (as well as mildly entertaining), I’ll try to come up with some really strange entries to see how far and wide the tagging net will get cast….
1) I have a horse living in retirement in New Jersey.
2) I play on a co-ed soccer team in Manhattan [...]
