Organic Chemistry: An ION

Organic Chemistry: An IONI like to call an inertial force an ION. An inertial force is a force between two objects that decreases with distance, while of course being the same in both objects.Think about your hand, for example, where do you think the inertial force is? It would seem that it is on the top of your hand right? Of course, it is the same for your hand and any other object that is moving away from your hand, but we are still dealing with the physics of moving objects that have objects with them in them.A moving object can also make a change in its mass (mass is basically a measure of inertia) by the displacement of some material from a place where it normally would be and one where it should be or will be. For example, suppose you are working with a hot glue gun and you are trying to stick something together. Suppose it is water mixed with adhesive, then you would expect that the thing that it would normally hold two would hold better when it was stuck to the glue, yet thi s does not happen when it is sticking to the glue.This means that you are either pushing against a container of water (which is a part of you) or you are pushing against the container of water (which you are made of). And in this case, you are pushing against the water you are made of, which would be something like the inertial force that you described above.We are constantly pushing against the outside world because our skin is a part of us and it contains skin cells, and we use the skin to protect our body from the environment around us, plus it helps to support and protect our muscles and bones. These are the exact same things that our muscles and bones are made of, and the same applies to your muscles and bones as well, which means that our muscles and bones are not just some small part of us.The moving part of our body is the part of us that stores and manages the inertial force that is being used by our body. It is not just a part of the physical world, but it is part of the m ental world as well. The inertial force is like an ever-increasing memory bank of every experience, every thought, every piece of advice that you have ever received.What happens when you become more aware of your inertial force? Well, you may find yourself running late for a meeting because you are feeling too tired, because the drive to work is actually more taxing than you anticipated and this places an extra burden on your mind to think through. Because of this, you are forced to think more rapidly and with less clarity, but even so, the mass of your mind is always as great as the inertial force is, so this just means that you can never forget anything, because if you forget it is like throwing it out.An inertial force is the same as throwing it out, but it is unlike the space shuttle where the mass of the ship does not change with respect to the mass of the astronaut. The astronaut is always the same, yet there is still an acceleration to the astronaut's body because they are st ill moving forward and there is always a push against them from the environment. This is also why I love to say that I don't think about how much I weigh, because my inertial force is increasing and it is always growing larger every day, and it will continue to grow larger until I am completely overwhelmed with my thoughts and memories and every last bit of information ever told to me.

Abu Dhabi public school teachers complete first professional development week

Abu Dhabi public school teachers complete first professional development week Photo credit: ADEC This week, the Abu Dhabi Education Council (ADEC) launched their first ever professional development week, held across 48 different school locations in the region for over 11,000 teachers.The Tanmia Professional Development Week was an extension of existing training courses that ADEC teachers receive every week, providing new strategies, tools, hands-on-experiences, and opportunities to collaborate with colleagues. “Our teachers are not beginners. They are professionals. For that reason, we offer them opportunities that help challenge their minds, and allow them to select programs that they feel will help benefit them the best during their day-to-day interaction in the classroom with their students,” said Dr. Amal Al Qubaisi, ADEC Director General, about the development week. Seven professional development streams were offered to teachers: differentiation, positive classroom assessment, encouraging high achievement for all students (including special needs and gifted students), planning for high-quality instruction and literacy strategies, English language learner strategies, 21st century learning, and 21st century strategies for kindergarten students. “These programs are being offered to teachers based on 21st century skills and their desire to learn more about a particular topic. Our aim is to help equip our teachers with some of the best skills to graduate a strong generation of youth as per ADEC’s strategy plan and the Abu Dhabi Economic 2030 vision,” said Dr. Al Qubaisi. Teachers participated in group sessions facilitated by ADEC school leaders, heads of faculty, and teachers who were trained to facilitate practical, hands-on classroom scenarios. Each teacher completed 20 professional development hours over the course of the conference in order to bring back significant educational learnings to share with coworkers. “This training not only provides teachers with top-notch professional development training in an area they are most comfortable pursuing, but also offers an opportunity for people to collaborate and share best teaching practices. The networking opportunities help teachers brainstorm and share their learning journey with each other,” noted Mr. Mohamed Salem Al Dhaheri, ADEC’s School Operations Executive Director.

Heads up Guys 5 Signs Shes into You

Heads up Guys 5 Signs Shes into You Courtesy of Flickr.com There are millions of questions running through your mind after the first date with Ms. Perfect. Is she interested or is she not? Is she playing hard to get or is she just not that into you? Is she sending you signals of “get away from me now,” or possibly, “Try harder, stupid?” Although she already went with you once, you are having a difficulty deciphering the  signs of love. 1) Tease Snide remarks such as “Are you gay…? (giggling), or “So you think you can pull off any look, huh?” may sound  awful, coming from the mouth of your Ms. Perfect. Teasing in a fun, endearing way, however, is actually a huge sign  showing her interest in you without embarrassing herself or, better yet, a sign showing that she wants you to try harder! A little bit of unconscious self-touching on her part that complements with the playful teasing is an even better sign. 2) Smiles Smiles she wears around you is a sign more convincing than anything that she is interested in you. Likewise, laughing at your stupid jokes is another good sign that she wants to get close to you and build a relationship! 3) Eye movements While it sounds ridiculously difficult to stare into her eyes and catch a glimpse of yourself at a dimly lit romantic restaurant, what’s more obvious is to see if she’s staring at you in a triangular pattern. According to Tracey Cox, author of  Hot Relationships: How to Have One, a triangular pattern refers to looking first from one eye, followed by  lips, chest, and then traveling back up to another eye. You know you’re golden when she looks at you in a triangular pattern a couple of times in one date. 4) Touchy touchy touchy! 55% of all human communications is nonverbal. Translation: body language is all that matters. Stroking, gentle push, tap on a shoulder or even hitting is a good sign. Some girls will use physical contact to flirt without looking too desperate. 5) Questions questions questions! When a girl is interested in you, she will bombard with millions of questions: “She’ll ask everything about youâ€"your work, your childhood, your likes and dislikes,” says Janice Hoffman, the author of Relationship Rules. Do not peek at her cleavage while she’s talking. Listen and respond!! So when you open your mouth, you can say something better than “you have such great curves!” The classy gossip girl quote: “three words, eight letters, say it and I’m yours.” Now that you have made sure whether your crush is into you, you may want to take another step forward and make her yours! Good luck!

A K12 Tutor Zone

A K12 Tutor ZoneIn this article, I'm going to discuss what a K12 tutor zone is and how it can be beneficial to your child. There are lots of misconceptions about K12 tutors, such as not being qualified, that they're bad teachers, and that they're annoying. By the time you finish reading this article, hopefully you'll have a better understanding of what a K12 tutor actually is.Some people have the misconception that a K12 tutor is only an adult with a degree who's been in the teaching profession for a while. The truth is, there are people who already have a degree in education and have no teaching experience, but they have some level of experience in the K12 realm. That's what I mean by a K12 tutor zone.What I've found is that a lot of people have a hard time choosing between certified K12 teachers and adult ESL teachers. It seems like the only real difference is the experience. There's no practical difference whatsoever, aside from certifications and letters of recommendation.If you' re interested in teaching kids in a classroom, the best thing to do is to get a degree, and then seek out a teaching job. From there, you'll find out if you want to do K12 or ESL tutoring, since the two have almost nothing to do with each other, except maybe certification and letters of recommendation.These days, all of the national standards are aligned with the Common Core State Standards, which includes the same concepts as the math and English Standards. To teach ESL, one needs to teach both English and Spanish, so they're essentially the same thing.So, to answer the question posed in the title, what exactly is a K12 tutor? It's actually more of a role than an individual. You work with both the instructor and the student on a daily basis, helping them to learn and assimilate the language, but you also have to apply to many different jobs because you're only allowed to work with students in one state.So to answer the original question: it depends on who you ask, but basically a K 12 tutor is an adult who has experience with students who have a limited vocabulary and need a lot of translation between languages. However, they may not need a full time teacher and don't require any other type of qualification apart from a GED. This type of individual is required to get additional documents signed and verified by the state in which they live.

How to Find a Chinese Tutor in Kuwait

How to Find a Chinese Tutor in KuwaitFinding a Chinese tutor in Kuwait is not easy. Many people want to travel to this beautiful country but lack the funds for a private tutor and so end up choosing to go for an online translation company. This is not a good idea because it is impossible to learn from a computer screen.People who do not have the money to pay a coach or do not have time for their own study should not attempt to find a Chinese tutor. Some companies that offer online, Chinese tutoring are scams and will try to take your money by telling you that you will learn fluent Chinese. It will be years before you start speaking it fluently.The best way to learn Chinese is by yourself. If you are serious about learning Chinese, then the time is now to get started. Most Chinese internet tutorials do not teach you anything beyond basic grammar and pronunciation.There are many different opportunities on the Internet to find a tutor. You can do an online search on Google or Yahoo or d o a search on the Chinese language websites. However, the most effective way to find a good language tutor is to simply go out and talk to him or her in person.After talking to the tutor and making some research, you should find someone you are comfortable with. By talking to someone in person, you will begin to feel like a real student and the tutor will have more information about you and your learning style.Once you find a local Chinese tutor, ask if you can use his/her place to study. If you cannot find one who lives locally, you may have to look online. Usually the internet Chinese teacher will take you out to a restaurant where you can both enjoy yourselves.While you are looking for the best possible tutor, be sure to take your time. If you are having trouble finding a tutor locally, you may need to try a few places until you find the right one.

How to Paint with Watercolours

How to Paint with Watercolours Learning How to Paint Using Watercolours ChaptersWatercolour Painting for BeginnersWatercolour Techniques for BeginnersWatercolour Painting Tutorials and ResourcesSome people think that, in the art world, watercolour paints are the equivalent of swimming in the kiddie pool.How many of you can recall sitting at a table, early in your primary education, gleefully smearing cerulean blue and cadmium yellow on a piece of craft paper, ostensibly depicting a sunny sky?There might have been a house, a few stick figures â€" your family, and perhaps a tree, all standing on blindingly green grass.In our Early Years/Nursery School, we were all watercolour artists.Perhaps that is why there is such derision heaped on watercolor painting; scorn that is not in the least deserved. The fact is, painting with watercolors is more challenging than working with oil paints or acrylic paints.Their thicker consistencies and the fact that they don’t readily absorb into canvas make those paints easier to control. Even gouache, with its gum arabic b inder, is easier to paint with than paints that consist solely of pigment and water.Artist and painter Eleanor Crow should know; she works well with oils but it is her collection of London’s classic storefronts, all painted with watercolours, that have made the news this week.So rich are her colours, so vibrant her work that you may be tempted to take up watercolour painting yourself!Enter Superprof: we have listed tips, tricks and techniques, as well as resources you could draw on to help you master one of the most fundamental forms of visual art: watercolour painting.

Did your primary school watercolor art look this good? Image by Prawny from PixabayBuying SuppliesStart out with a kid’s paint set, just to see if you like it â€" MarjorieIf you are like most people, you want to try things out before dedicating yourself wholly to their pursuit. In that sense, Ms Marjorie’s advice could be well-founded.On the other hand, the very nature of watercolour painting, it’s particular difficulties and idiosyncracies fairly demand that you spend a bit more than a pound or two on paints and paper.Watercolor paper is the perfect base upon which to build our argument.Let’s try an experiment: grab a sheet of copy paper out of your computer’s printer. If you don’t have such paper, go for tearing a sheet out of a notebook. Now, wet your fingers and run them along the paper’s surface, as though you were fingerpainting and watch what happens.This type of paper’s surface is resistant to water; it will not absorb colour well, making it harder to keep the paint where you want it. Worse: if you tape this paper to an easel so that you can work standing up, you will find that the water literally runs off of the page!If you leave the wet paper for just a moment, you’ll find it will start buckling, creating a wavy effect that will impact your final image’s look.Even using craft paper, slightly heavier and more absorbent, you end up with the same nightmare scenario.Watercolour paper is specially designed to absorb a degree of moisture while maintaining a flat surface. Furthermore, its texture and thickness are designed to work with watercolour paint.There are two broad categories of watercolour paper to choose from: students’ quality and artists’ quality. The latter is acid-free and meant to withstand the test of time; the former is better suited to the fledgeling artist. It also costs a bit less.Paints also come in students’ and artists’ grades.Students’ paints are less expensive because they pack more fillers and binders i n them; they are not quite as richly pigmented as professional-grade watercolour paint. Again, if you are just trying your hand at watercolour painting to see if you enjoy it, students' paints would be sufficient.As for brushes, there are different grades here, too. You may bypass the top-of-the-line Kolinsky sables for now; a synthetic bristle brush would suffice for you to determine whether you want to continue painting with watercolours.Once you’ve made that determination, you could make your second round of brush-buying from the natural-bristles selection.In making these suggestions, we take a page from Jerry’s experiences with watercolours.His mother, being a painter herself, took him shopping for supplies at Winsor-Newton. He staggered home with armloads of high-priced watercolor paint and tools only to discover, after trying his hand at it, that he didn’t have the patience for water colors.Fortunately, he could give his mother all of those costly supplies; who would you give yours to if you found you didn’t like to paint with watercolours?Maybe, if Jerry had known how to start painting with watercolours, he would have enjoyed painting with them... Gradation, going to progressively darker shades, is a watercolor technique every aspiring painter should master Image by JL G from PixabayWatercolour Techniques for BeginnersDid you watch The Big Painting Challenge on BBC 1 last year?Watercolour artists make it look so easy, don’t they? From landscape painting to portraiture, they make art on paper seem effortless.They are only able to to that because they spent hours mastering watercolour techniques like dry-brush and wet-on-wet â€" brushing your paper with clear water before applying any colour. They know how to block out white spaces using masking fluid and which order they should apply their paint.Did you know that, if oil or acrylic paint is your medium, it is common to paint the dark colours first but when painting with watercolours, you should paint light colours first?In part, the reason for that is that it is difficult to cover dark colours with lighter ones, making the light-before-dark technique one that beginner waterco lour painters quickly adopt.Of course, painting light before dark calls for you to visualise which parts of your design will be light and which ones will be dark; to that end, sketching your design would help tremendously. Then, you could paint those translucent burnt sienna flowers before the dark green foliage.What if you accidentally end up with forest green paint on your previously-painted yellow flowers?You can use several techniques to correct that mistake:Lifting: using a clean brush, a paper towel or a sponge, simply ‘lift’ the offending droplet awayThis technique is also called ‘scrubbing’Scraping: using a razor blade or painting knife, remove the unwanted paintUse a Magic Eraser â€" amazingly effective!Use Watercolor Ground: essentially a type of liquid paper, it will restore your ill-placed blotches to white; just remember to repaint the flower after it dries!No one says that you have to learn watercolor techniques; if all you’re looking for is an outlet for str ess, you may enjoy wantonly flicking droplets of paint onto your paper â€" yes, that too is a painting technique.However, if you are serious about learning watercolour painting, then picking up on the various techniques such as washes, dry-versus wet methods of painting and gradating will help you advance as a watercolor artist. Watercolor paintings such as these are deceptively complex to paint! Image by Rosa Palma from PixabayWatercolour Painting Tutorials and ResourcesAny information you’re looking for, you can find online, including watercolor tutorials.That doesn’t mean that the content available online should be the sole, go-to resource for beginner painters. You may, for instance, consider learning how to paint with watercolours guided by a Superprof tutor!What got you interested in painting with watercolours?Did you see an advert for classes at your community centre, supermarket or library? Or, perhaps, one sleepless night, idly cycling through YouTube, you came across a video of an artist dabbing paint on paper while relaxing music played in the background?Indeed, there are plenty of YouTube channels targeted to the novice watercolour painter. They will be a great guide as you progress in mastering this art form but, first, you should learn a bit about it from a more concrete source: books.Some might snort in derision at this suggestion; what special benefit does a book provide that one cannot gain from online resources â€" including digital books?They are quite right; there is nothing wrong with online resources or digital books. One should use that argument carefully though, lest it is countered with: why work with watercolour paints when you could learn how to use Photoshop brushes and create digital art?With that point succinctly made, let us introduce the book that takes top marks for us: The Tao of Watercolor by Jeanne Carbonetti.You know how athletes talk about ‘the zone’ they get in to deliver a superior performance? This book does the same for watercolour painters; it helps them fully immerse themselves into the art of watercolour, letting the work itself become the path of inspiration.This is by no means the only book on watercolour painting to be had; likewise, recommending only books would narrow the focus of learning how to paint with watercolours to the p erspective of those artists who have written books.That is why we have a whole article devoted to the subject of tutorials and resources; let us know if we can help you further, won’t you?
