A rich fishing history and strong maritime traditions allow these communities the ability to trace their heritage back to European colonists of 1605. Dear Badger Traveler, Join us on this enriching adventure to uncover Canada’s provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island. With its splendid natural beauty, strong maritime traditions, and welcoming locals, this region has much to offer. First explore beautiful Halifax—Nova Scotia’s friendly capital—during a panoramic city tour, including visits to the Citadel National Historic Site and Fairview Cemetery—the final resting place for 150 victims of the Titanic. During a tour of the south shore, admire the stunning landscape of Lunenburg—a charming fishing village and one of only two towns in North America designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Continue to Peggy’s Cove to see its famous lighthouse. En route to Digby, stop at the national historic site of Grand-Pré, which commemorates the area as the center of Acadian settlement from 1682 to 1755. Experience Tea with Eleanor on Campobello Island and learn how President and Mrs. Roosevelt impacted this quaint area. Then spend time at the Bay of Fundy and learn of its impressive tide differential and geological treasures like fossils and minerals. Space is limited. With significant savings of more than $800 per couple, we anticipate this tour will fill quickly, so be certain to reserve your spot today and share this brochure with family and friends who may be interested in traveling with you.

    The Emails from the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit On or about November 19, 2009, as yet unknown persons hacked into an email server at the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) in Norwich, U.K. The CRU is an academic department specializing in climate research and is particularly known for reconstructing past global surface temperatures on the decade to millennium time scales. The CRU is one of three organizations worldwide that have independently compiled thermometer measurements of local temperatures from around the world to reconstruct the history of average global surface temperature for the past 130 ‐ 150 years. The other two groups are in the United States (NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center and the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies). From a much larger number of emails, the hackers selected and posted more than 1000 on a publicly accessible file server in Russia. The vast majority of the 1000+ emails are routine and unsuspicious. Perhaps one or two dozen of the email exchanges give the appearance of controversy, though no unethical behavior has yet been documented. Professor Phil Jones, director of the CRU, was involved in most of these email exchanges. He has temporarily stepped down as the CRU director pending the outcome of an independent investigation instigated by the university. Although a small percentage of the emails are impolite and some express animosity toward opponents, when placed into proper context they do not appear to reveal fraud or other scientific misconduct by Dr. Jones or his correspondents. The most common accusations of misconduct center around two general themes: 1.

A special thanks goes to Connie Jolin and Wayne Morrison who dug through files to gather utility and fuel purchase data. Larry Foster and Margaret King provided review of the documents and thoughtful comments regarding our approach to the work. The Institute of Social and Economic Research ISER’s Nick Szymoniak and Stephen Colt took on the particularly interesting challenge of estimating the carbon foot print associated with commuting and vehicles used by faculty, staff and students. In response to the leadership of Fran Ulmer the Chancellor of the University of Alaska Anchorage, Michael Smith and Christopher Turlettes anticipated the University’s need for these metrics and commissioned this report.

    Educational Technology and Education Conferences: for June to December 2018, Edition #39

    :Educational Technology and Education Conferences: for June to December 2018, Edition #39 Prepared by Clayton R. Wright, crwr77 at gmail.com, May 12, 2018 The 39th edition of the conference list covers selected professional development opportunities that primarily focus on the use of technology in educational settings and on teaching, learning, and educational administration. Only listings until December 2018 are complete as dates, locations, or Internet addresses (URLs) were not available for a number of events held after December 2018. In order to protect the privacy of individuals, only URLs are used in the listing as this enables readers of the list to obtain event information without submitting their e-mail addresses. A significant challenge during the assembly of this list is incomplete or conflicting information on websites and the lack of a link between conference websites from one year to the next. An explanation for the content and format of the list can be found at http://newsletter.alt.ac.uk/2011/08/why- distribute-documents-in-ms-word-or-openoffice-for-an-international-audience/. A Word or an OpenOffice format is used to enable people with limited or high-cost Internet access to find a conference that is congruent with their interests or obtain conference abstracts or proceedings. Consider using the “Find” tool under Microsoft Word’s “Edit” tab or similar tab in OpenOffice to locate the name of a particular conference, association, city, or country. If you enter the country “Australia” or place, such as “Hong Kong” in the “Find” tool, all conferences that occur in Australia or Hong Kong will be highlighted.
