  • Thank You from Trickum Odyssey of the Mind Team
    July 11, 2018 Dear Lilburn Business Association Members, We are Trickum Middle School’s Odyssey of the Mind Team and are writing to thank you for your $100 donation to help us attend Odyssey of the Mind World Finals at Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa in late May. Your donation was critical in helping us get the seven team members to competition in Iowa! Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem solving competition for youth. For five years in a row, our team has been able to compete in the Odyssey of the Mind State Finals, but this was the first time we were able to compete on a national and international level. We were so excited for the opportunity! There were over 825 teams from around the world that competed in the 39th annual Odyssey of the Mind World Finals. We met students from 16 other countries, including Japan, Poland, Germany, Mexico, Singapore, Qatar, China, South Korea, Canada, India, and Hong Kong. The opening ceremonies were held in Iowa’s Hilton Coliseum and were run similar to the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. A member of our team (Blake) was able to carry the Georgia state flag in the opening ceremonies. On another evening during a float and banner parade, a member of our team (Sarah) was able to walk into the Hilton Coliseum with Georgia’s two-story dragon float. (An amazing site!) In between competition events, we traded pins with other Odyssey of the Mind students from other states and countries. We competed in two categories—a long-term competition where we presented an 8 minute show that was a “mock” documentary of Alice in Wonderland, and a spontaneous competition that is similar to improvisational humor.

  • What Is Odyssey of the Mind?
    New York State Odyssey of the Mind Association, Inc. What is Odyssey of the Mind? u Overview of Odyssey of the Mind Program The Odyssey of the Mind School Program is administered in New York State by the New York State Odyssey of the Mind Association, Inc. (NYSOMA), a not-for-profit corporation. Through its affiliation with Creative Competitions, Inc. it fosters creative thinking and problem- solving skills among participating students from kindergarten through college. Participants solve problems in a variety of areas, from building mechanical devices such as spring-driven vehicles to giving their own interpretation of literary classics. Through solving problems, students learn lifelong skills such as working with others as a team, evaluating ideas, making decisions, and creating solutions while also developing self-confidence from their experiences. Each year New York teams demonstrate these skills at numerous local, 16 regional, a state and an international competition. Odyssey of the Mind is a worldwide event in which over one million participate. u Why Odyssey of the Mind is Good for Kids Odyssey of the Mind teaches students to learn creative problem-solving methods while having fun in the process. For more than twenty years, this unique program has helped teachers generate excitement in their students. By tapping into creativity, and through encouraging imaginative paths to problem solving, students learn skills that will provide them with the ability to solve problems -- great and small -- for a lifetime. Odyssey of the Mind teaches students how to think divergently by providing open-ended problems that appeal to a wide range of interests.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Odyssey of the Mind Kids Take Over
    NEWS CONTACT: Jennifer Veale Phone: (515) 294-9663 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Odyssey of the Mind Kids Take Over Iowa! Ames, I.A. – Over 6,500 creative students from around the world will be competing in the 30 th annual Odyssey of the Mind World Finals from May 27 – 30 at Iowa State University. Students from different cultures and widely varying economic backgrounds will prove that creativity is universal. They will all demonstrate their unique creative solution to an Odyssey of the Mind problem while appreciating the creativity of others. The teams have worked throughout the school year solving an OotM problem and were judged as the most creative in a series of rigorous state and national competitions. At ISU, the teams will represent their state and country in hopes to prove that they are the world’s most creative problem-solvers. Odyssey of the Mind has teams throughout the United States and in more than 15 other countries including China, South Korea, Poland, Germany, Singapore, and Mexico. They will come with interesting costumes, original stage sets, and innovative inventions — all part of solving an Odyssey problem. This year’s problems are: • Earth Trek: Teams designed and built vehicles that appear to travel around the globe visiting its many unique environments. They also put their creative ideas to good use by solving a potential problem facing the planet. • Teach Yer Creature: Teams built mechanical “creatures” that learn and mimic human behaviors with humorous results. • Classics. The Lost Labor of Heracles : Teams learned about Greek mythology and created a “lost” labor for Heracles.

  • NASA’S Terra (Left) and Aqua (Right) Illustrates How the Amount of Sunlight That Aerosols Absorb Affects Cloud Formation
    NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION The Earth Observer. July - August 2006. Volume 18, Issue 4. Editor’s Corner Michael King EOS Senior Project Scientist I am pleased to report that, after executing a series of extremely precise maneuvers, both the CloudSat and Cloud Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) satellites are in position in the Afternoon “A-Train” Constellation and formation flying has begun. CloudSat and CALIPSO now join Aqua, Aura, and PARA- SOL in the A-Train, and these missions will work together to provide new insights into the global distribution and evolution of clouds and aerosols to improve weather forecasting and climate prediction. CloudSat flies about a minute behind Aqua in the formation, and precedes CALIPSO by a mere 12.5 (+/- 2.5) seconds. Even before the two satellites were in place in the A-Train, the first images from each mission were flowing back to Earth, revealing never-before-seen three-dimensional details about clouds and aerosols. Mission managers tested the flight- and ground-system performance of CloudSat’s Cloud-Profiling Radar (CPR) in late May, and found it to be working perfectly. Thirty seconds after the radar was activated for the first time, the CPR obtained its first image of a warm front storm in the Norwegian Sea, and a few weeks later CloudSat observed Tropical Storm Alberto as it churned in the Gulf of Mexico. Meanwhile, the CALIPSO team has been testing out the three instruments onboard the spacecraft—the Infra- red Imaging Radiometer (IIR), Wide Field-of-view Camera (WFC), and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP)—and all three are now active.
