So are you saying that in one of these dimensions you're actually good at super Mario??. Fascinating stuff Jake, and don't go putting your cats in radioactive boxes, alright big guy?3 points

The reason why you get shocked more in the winter is because everyone has their heaters on which draws the moisture out of the air which causes the charges to build up and cling to us more since there is less moisture in the air.2 points

Jelliott, I can really relate to your analogies. I too wish to become a beautiful butterfly, to grow and grow until I burst with knowledge. although I find some of your post humorous as intended, I think you struck on very important ideas. I think hard problems can be torture but on the other hand, that makes them that much more rewarding when completed.2 points

Sweet blog post. If you wouldn't mind spreading the love and also buying your two student teachers silver Porsches, we wouldn't complain2 points

Nice post HegelBot153. If you wear flannel pajamas and have flannel sheets, rolling over under the covers can be an 'enlightening' experience as well!1 point

When I was little, I used to yell at a mason jar... Physics said "Nay!"1 point

Dear Mr. Vank -- it's fantastic that you landed on the moon... but did you land on time?1 point

Thrilled to have you aboard BrandyBoy... I think we'll be able to challenge you a bit this year, maybe the first serious academic challenge you'll face. When you hit that point (and most students do at some point in this class) -- keep in mind you have tons of fans rooting for you, and it's OK to struggle and fail. Failing is the first step to success, and learning how to fail productively is a terribly underestimated skill. Am I hearing the beginnings of some blog posts on how physics relates to boy scouts?1 point

Love the incorporation of sports and video games with physics. Just out of curiosity, is SWEAT an acronym for something?1 point

That perspective of not only looking at AP-C as an opportunity for increasing your physics understanding but also a place that will equip you with experiences that can be applied elsewhere in life is fantastic! The same lens you use to apply physics to real-life problems is so useful no matter what you do. Failing definitely happens, whether large or small; just keep that perspective of learning from those mistakes and using them as opportunities rather than barriers. Often you'll find that it was better to fail once and succeed the next time!1 point

I find Black Holes and all theories about the universe and its possible demise absolutely riveting. Thank you!1 point

I'm jealous -- I'd love to have time with Brother Guy to talk about evidence and overlap in science and religion. Absolutely fascinating!!!1 point

I did not know you played frisbee. Do you play ultamite? because I have an ultamite frisbee team that also practices over the summer.1 point

Wow Alex! I wouldn't want to get that hard! It most be very painful, almost as bad as a hidden blade to the rib cage! I wouldn't want to be pancaked either! That most hurt but good way to explain!1 point

And now we're starting to make electronics small enough that the wave nature of particles is coming into play. Quantum electronic devices are becoming reality, and gate thickness of transistors are becoming so thin that electrons tunneling through dielectrics becomes a problem (or a feature).1 point

It is so cute that you were able make a bunny be a story and example to physics. What was your inspiration for writing on this topic?1 point

The first time I drove on the highway i was kind of scared too Hannah but yah driving has a lot of physics.1 point

I'm jealous. I remember when i had time to play some of these. Instead, last night's excitement include an episode of Sofia the First "The Emerald Key" -- some great dramatic tension at the end -- coupled with a trio of Elmo songs and reading two chapters of the third installment of the "Princess Tiara" book series.1 point

MEGA ULTRA SUPER DEEP FIELD IMAGE...maybe you could get it in 3D?! Very interesting, nonetheless!1 point

Truly interesting. Sadly, the video is blocked by the internet filter. Where is society going....1 point

Take that sandra bullock! Really though the lack of physics knowledge in a movie called gravity is kind of insulting1 point

My favorite part of the year -- watching how much this class grew, from the struggles with the book and our first independent unit in late October, then comparing that to April when I kept receiving requests to finish out the year with independent work and study. I just love when students outgrow the need for formal instruction -- once you learn how to teach yourself, and have the confidence to do so, there's nothing that can stop you!!!1 point

Very well done! Physics everywhere in volleyball. The video looks like a lot of fun -- we should make our own.1 point

Great idea, and very well executed. Goes right along with what we're learning about the electromagnetic spectrum.1 point

Great blog post, and I learned something new about nordic skiing. Always take good care of your skis, and hopefully they'll take care of you!1 point

Glad to hear you were able to get that coathanger bent and see the continuous shape that the solenoid makes with the soap bubbles!1 point
