Last weekend was a fun time at Kaleidoscope: We had the first of the science experiments workshop conducted by Yardstick , a group dedicated to creating experiential learning activities for science education.

The children made a balloon powered car, a water pump, a hovercraft and a flute. On the way, they befriended several principles of physics. “Awesome!”, “Such fun!” and “Wow, cool” were just some of the things we heard the kids say.

We have two more workshops to go, this weekend and the next.

Do join in for a hands-on, experiential encounter with science.

Planned for upcoming sessions: Weighing scale, periscope, solar cooker, magnetic levitation, electromagnet, test for nutrients and ink chromatography.

  9. Nice to be browsing your weblog once again, it’s been many weeks for me. In fact this article is what i’ve been waiting for so long. I need this article to complete my university assignment, and your write-up is a nice support. Kudos, excellent share.

  10. Hi, I’m a professional pianist and I’ve made a stupid rule that permits me to take a 15 min break each and every 1 hour of practicing. Now, every single break We’ve to complete one thing completely various, so mostly I go to Google and seek for the recommended last hour blog. It can be fun to do something diverse and to learn about new points every and every day. BTW, now I’m playing. HandelHaydn. Your web page is excellent, I wish I could stay longer, but We’ve to acquire back to play… Subsequent time I’ll appear to visit again.

  11. I should say, as very much as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt support but lose interest following a while. Its as in the event you had a good grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to consist of your readers. Possibly you must consider this from a lot more than one particular angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so very much. Its far better in the event you consider what others may well have to express rather than just going for any gut reaction on the theme. Think about adjusting your own thought method and giving others who might understand this the benefit in the doubt.

  12. Financial spread betting is a leveraged tool that gives investors the opportunity to trade the financial markets without ever taking physical ownership of the underlying instrument. This means that the trader/investor can speculate in the direction of any financial instrument, whether it is specific shares, currencies, commodities or indices without ever owning them. In the financial markets there are standard contract sizes. For example for the FTSE 100 index contract the standard market size is £10. With financial spread betting the investor nominates his own stake size, for example £2 per point. The bet is settled as the difference between the purchase and the sell price.Financial Spreads is appealing to ever greater numbers of investors for several reasons, not least of which is the absence of capital gains tax on profits (unlike conventional share trading, where CGT applies to trading gains in many countries), and the lack of stamp duty on transactions (most interesting in the UK; strictly speaking, the transaction is a bet, rather than an investment - hence the name.) However, by its very nature financial spread betting is more risky than traditional, fixed odds betting, or conventional traditional share trading, where participants are usually a little more protected. If you judge wrong, you are likely to lose a great deal in the absence of a stop loss and any losses made on a spread bet cannot be offset against capital gains on ordinary investments.The costs associated with financial spread betting are included in the spread (the difference between the bid and the offer price). Therefore the wider the spread, the more you pay to trade. So when considering a company to spread bet always compare the spread. The good news about the spreads is that these are generally getting tighter due to increased competition and explosive growth as investors are beginning to realise the advantages of financial spread betting; thus making the system more efficient.

Subconsciously, they feel that investing in shares is ethically acceptable whereas betting has down market connotations and morally reprehensible. That is a pity, because the truth is quite different. You buy a share because you believe that the price will rise and you will make a profit. You bet on a share price for exactly the same reason. The only practical difference between buying a share, and betting on the movement of the share price is that you need much more ready cash to buy the share. The costs of buying a share are much greater than placing a bet.Open a GFT AccountIf the underlying share price moved disastrously against you overnight, for example, you might los
