24 gorgeous vintage magic lantern slides of Alice in Wonderland, based on Sir John Tenniel’s original illustrations.
On a still night, when the moon waxes
like the rings of a growing tree,
love, alone like the moon,
grows like such aging rings,
filling my heart to aching.
—Yun dong-ju, 1939
Gasp! so gorgeous, in a different way than the original. I can’t look away.

It somehow became an article of faith on the right that Obama is ‘the most extreme President in American history.’ Although when they say that, I think what they really mean is, ‘He’s black.’

Complaining is stupid. Either act or forget.
MY TAKE: Things I have learned teaching.
Things I have learned in my life so far.

A map of woman’s heart from the 1800s, equal parts amusing and appalling.

IN the Speak up 2011 report, students say that 46% of them have used Facebook to collaborate on school projects.
Interesting report that also shows the flip side where 65% of principals say they will not allow personal devices in the next school year. (What is odd is a study I shared a few weeks a go on my blog says that almost 50% of students are receiving text messages during class NOW in schools where cell phones are BANNED so really, this is just window dressing.)
“Students want more control over how they use technology in school, but many classrooms are still making it difficult. That’s according to the most recent Speak Up 2011 report, “Mapping a Personalized Learning Journey,” which reflects the views of more than 416,000 K-12 students, parents, and educators nationwide surveyed on how technology can enhance the learning environment. They survey is produced by Project Tomorrow, an educational non-profit focused on raising student voices in education policy discussions. The theme for this survey focused on individualized learning paths.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,I love you directly without problems or pride:I love you like this because I don’t know any other way to love,except in this form in which I am not nor are you,so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,so close that your eyes close with my dreams.
WHAT IS THE NAME OF THIS COLOR? I CANNOT STOP SEEING IT IN MY HEAD

Of course words lose meaning or change significance when their relationships are altered……
Simryn Gill used books as a raw material, choosing words such as ‘because’, ‘vessel’, ‘always’, ‘jealous’, and ‘lull’, and removing them from the books to investigate if, and how, words lose or take on meaning when taken away from their intended structures and contexts.
