Cassiopeia constellation mythology and history



Almudena Conde, a student of 1 high school "C" has sought to fill the contents of the theme of the universe of the subject of Sciences for the contemporary world with the mythological history and description of constellation Cassiopeia.


D and according to Greek legend the sea god Poseidon placed the figure of Cassiopeia among the stars. it is said that Cassiopeia has a ridiculous position and backwards to punish her for being so pretentious. Cassiopeia was very proud of her beauty. She said she and her daughter Andromeda were more beautiful than the sea nymphs, the Nereids.

L
as nymphs complained to the sea god Poseidon, who threatened to send a sea monster and a flood to destroy Earth Cassiopeia. Desperate King Cepheus consulted an oracle to prevent the destruction of his kingdom. The oracle told him that only by sacrificing his daughter Andromeda to the monster could appease the wrath of Poseidon.

Perseus noticed the beautiful woman and fell in love with her. Knowing the history of Andromeda he offered to rescue her if her parents agreed to marry her. With the help of magical sandals that allowed him to fly, and a magic sword given to him Hermes, Perseus killed the sea monster and married her.

snip Science in Spain does not need scissors ... Experience

That's the title of the initiative that I found on the blog of Javier Pelaez, The village irreducible , And also we have joined since our FiQuiBlog

Since this is a school blog to be their own learners the / as you think and argue for English science needs no cuts, also affects them a lot. So I asked my students in chemistry and science. The reasons given to me were these:
  • On behalf of Jaime: I think they should continue to provide money, lest we become a bit advanced country in terms of scientific factors. We must continue competing countries and continue to make innovations in all sectors achieve a development that ultimately prove beneficial for everyone.
  • Desirée White, Mary and Sara say should not because the money down low interest in science and knowledge, because if we want new technologies and vaccines for diseases we do not know why they want a smaller budget for it. Because if they lower the budgets for science many people would stop studying science-related careers.
  • Paul and Patrick: We should not be cutting budgets for science because it could not continue as it does so much research so far. Not be obtain the resources necessary to carry out this research nor is able to create new technologies or improve the level of science.
  • Nieves Maria Luisa and we should not cut budgets because there are many people who depend on the research of science and also because science makes the country forward. Lorena Gabriela
  • and believe that you should not cut the research budget because: Spain is not a developed country in terms of science is concerned, and cut the budget would prevent progress. In the future, perhaps the students, seeing no effective English systems choose to go to study in countries more scientific advance. If you already have the budget that Spain is one of the most backward countries of Europe in education / science, cutting the budgets would be worse. There are many people working in the domain of research and resources needed, as technology advances every day and you have to keep pace. There are sick people who need to advance science and research is most important in this process.
  • Francisco and Isa say: We are against it because the scientific development is necessary and there are always new projects in which research is needed for peak performance.
  • Cristina, Silvia and Cesar say we can not lose research budget low budget because if researchers would not be as good and could do the same work the development of science is very important because it gives us
  • advances tegnologias
  • For Jose Ramon and Abraham: I think should not cut spending because it left many people without jobs. If you cut back the budget solutions could prevent illness and not spend money just for causing the death of persons, that investigations continue to move to avoid jams, make further progress.
  • Rafa thinks it should continue to provide money because many people depend on it in the field of health. Failure to investigate on diseases and drugs may not help those who suffer illness. Research also is important for a country as it is important to its economy.
  • María José: Well, I think that you should not cut the budgets for science because without them this could not evolve or prove research findings. Science is also necessary for life as we resolve the questions that human beings arose.
  • Lucia: I think you should not lower the percentage of revenue for the research because this is a step towards the future and our country scientists and research are needed to not go to other countries to investigate.
  • Nuria and Celia We think that you should not cut research budgets because there are diseases that must be investigated and any medication that can cure and have no budget to investigate this can not go forward, which also affects social development and welfare. Naxo
  • Helena and believe that you should not cut the budget in science because: Everyone wants to advance science, but if budgets are cut it is impossible to happen. Many people lose their jobs. Much money is allocated to different things and believe that science is more important to cut budgets. Science is good for everyone.
  • Raquel: I say that's not must cut budgets because progress so that there is today would be reduced because they would have no money to do the research needed to think new things.
  • Pepe: I think there should be no budget cuts in the field research because it is very important for the future development of both medicine and the improvement of living standards also seriously would stop development of future scientists and would leave Spain in a lower level compared to other powers European foreign and severely limit what the job offers abroad and that the level of knowledge would be lower.
  • Cristina C.: I think research is needed to make English industries and not have to buy from other countries, thus saving money.
  • Cristimar E.: reducing investment in science and research? so they want to do now? .. and of course you blame the crisis ... And that in itself, Spain is not very advanced in this matter, if we take more of what little we have, how we move forward and become an important country? Science is based, is the future. We need to move, to discover things, investigate, not having to always depend on someone, but have qe own resources to progress. A clear example of this is in large intelligent, who have had move to other countries because there is no media, investment ... that are committed to them. Do not allow and continue to believe in a better tomorrow.
These are some of the opinions of my students, perhaps those / as those most likely to affect the budget cuts, they soon become part of the university and research communities.

ESCIVE 2009 at the Algarve


Blanca Ruiz

tells his experience of the Scientific Summer breaks in Faro (Portugal):

One day in class the teacher said something in a scientific course .. . Truth does not pay much attention to the issue and was something that looked very out of my possibilities. Given time to deliver a short questionnaire, and I decided, therefore, what could you lose?
Fill the questionnaire and delivered on time only three girls. After that came another short questionnaire. This was already too complicated, especially the part "What era would you have liked to live and why." That question was like ... no .. the it read and you said .. I do not fuck! To see what I can put me here! Luckily I had always clear what situation I would have liked to live, but it was difficult to express. Because, see, the Edo Period (Japan) and is difficult to understand in itself, if you try to explain above why would you have liked to be there .... the truth that it took me home in escribirlo.En told me not excite me that it was very difficult to be scientific stay, they would very few. Supported me, but were not sure.
deliver the three questionnaires to the teacher and did not know anything about them until a month later, I mysteriously got to see the resolution of the call in ESCIVE website and found my name and my companion Minerva there ... What happiness god! Something that I thought would not go, that spending the summer in a lab doing something you love only happens on TV. Anyway, since my name was there, right? theoretically and go, or at least who whose that possibility. I thought I would not until he arrived on July 11, I prepared the case because 15 had to be in Faro (The Algarve, Portugal).


My project was called "In Search of the microscopic eggs of marine animals" and called me enough attention. I was super nervous at 6 had to be at the Inn, when I got there was Andreia, the coordinator, waiting. Arrived, greeted and told us about what to do.

When I got to the room accompanied by Jose (A grenade kid was going to do another project: "Gen X") and Catia (Portuguese girl, your project is called "Under My Skin"). I was so nervous I did not talk with almost anyone, but in seconds, since I'm so nervous, I could not shut up and started talking to Jose and Catia. Then came the other fellow Laura, Diego and Catarina would sleep that night all together. And there we were doing and understand in a super sophisticated language, including English-French-Portuguese-English
-Gallego (For Diego Gallego said that was like the Portuguese, as he was from A Coruña as ale!).


The first night we got the deck of cards, of course! And I started talking to everyone and break the ice a little because there were all too shy. We play cards, it was a mess because the deck was English, but not the same game in Galicia, Jerez, Cordoba, Granada, however as is the name. Laura then explained in English, a game they had played all but differently. Begin to deal cards face:
-Laura, Are not six cards?
"No, five.
"But to see what do we play?
The Portuguese side looked us have no idea what we talked about. That was a mess of just laughing as if possessed ... above all when Joseph tried to explain his game in English and released his "INDECENTRE." Anyway ...



The next day we taught the University and two other girls met Ruth and Susan, who also have projects there. We shared by laboratories and projects and I stayed with Susan and Catherine with the project "In Search of the microscopic eggs of marine animals" Laura was with Catia the project "Under my skin", Diego Ruth "fattening of reproduction: how to grow the fish? ". In my lab

behaved great with me, I did not know Portuguese So there were all from the head to the coordinators of the laboratory, making it the consistent understanding. My friends who were Portuguese also helped me a lot. It was a fantastic experience that I recommend to everyone. Not only for what you learn science, but by the things you bring these people with whom they live 15 days, are things you can not pick up otherwise. Also, do something you like and you will serve in the future like always. So if you have the opportunity not miss this opportunity.
If I could, I would return. The only bad science of the whole stay was the farewell .. I did not want to stop.

Fin Out The Real Salieri Relation Ship

ESCIVE 2009 in UAM SETI detects


Minerva Caamaño wanted describes her experiences in the Summer Science breaks in 2009, after spending a week and n the campus of the UAM. This is his diary of the ESCIVE:

ESCIVE JOURNAL


Monday 5 July: I arrived in Madrid, there Atocha station Javier I received a ESCIVE monitors. We took the subway and then we come to school in May, we were the first so we got down to work and investigate the whole school. Little by little they were getting all the other colleagues, on this first day almost no one spoke and could be clearly distinguished Portuguese and English on one side to another but with the time and language was an impediment or anything because we just together.


Tuesday July 6: We had a presentation at UAM "Autonomous University of Madrid" in which formed part of the university president, the coordinator of ESCIVE (Ana Belts) , Homer and James would be the teachers of communication skills, all teachers who would class and some other officials of the activity.

Then we had a kind of communication techniques, this class taught us to communicate both orally and in writing, make a presentation to someone, to present argument for or against ...

also had a kind of educational activities which was to prepare a theater where you had to represent something referred to our project, my group the M.1 "I have this way because evolution made me this way" we choose to do a debate which was presented to Darwin (I did it) and Lamarck in a debate on how they could see the differences in their theories using the contents of the cases.

had These classes are every day except the weekend.

And in the evening we went to the "forest of sculptures" and dinner daily and leisure.

Tuesday, July 7: At last we had the first class with our teacher of zoology "José Luis Viejo" in this first class we dissected of a crab, first recognized all external parts, and then proceeded to open the crab with the instrumentation were lucky because our project was before the break and we could use that half hour to continue with the class but we had us all eating the sandwich hurry.

In the afternoon we went to see Library National liked me because we saw the whole history of writing and books.


Wednesday July 8: He played the dissection of a fish from my point of view was more interesting because not only based on open a crab or a fish but also to know where it came from or because it moves so or as in my case I chose a species turbot has no symmetry and single storey so it was interesting but also difficult to study because almost nothing of what the teacher said corresponded with my fish, also was the best day because it was antenna 3 and the final end out on the news and in the afternoon we went to the anthropological museum liked me because I took a picture with the Lady of Elche.


Thursday, July 9: It was also an interesting class because with binoculars and bird guide in hand we went to a class of ornithology for the campus, as in learned a lot of other classes such as swallows, swifts differentiate, different types of peaks and utilities and much more, we were able de ver urracas, cuervos, varios tipos de rapaces...

Por la tarde teníamos actividad deportiva y nos llevaron a la piscina del campus que era grañidísima.



Viernes 10: La clase con el profesor era para las dudas del proyecto de actividades divulgativas pero en vez de eso utilizamos la clase para que nos explicaran las diferentes teorías evolutivas.

Por la tarde fueron mis compañeros al museo Reina Sofía pero yo no pude ir porque no me dejaron ya que el día anterior me había torcido ankle.


Saturday July 11: In the morning I could not go to walk through the withdrawal but in the afternoon if I already decided to go with my companions to anthropology museum crutches because I left.

At night, a professor at the UAM was to put a film about cloning stem cells.


Sunday July 12: We went to MNCN (National Museum of Natural Sciences) Darwin, this visit was the one I liked and was also guided by what we enjoyed most of the museum. When we reached the hall we were rehearsing our theater of educational activities we had fun because we provide wigs to better identify the characters.


Monday July 13: It was the day to present theater that much time and effort had cost us was breathing an atmosphere of anxiety in all groups but in the end was a success and we laughed a lot with most of them, after having given all the Dean gave us a certificate to each and declared closed the third edition of the scientific stay ESCIVE summer 2009 and then had a little debriefing session. At night we made a farewell party with dance music, we were all happy but we knew that this meant the end of the stay.


simpatiquísimos The Portuguese were very talkative because some knew enough English, so thanks to them end up learning English some Portuguese, after the party we all were writing dedications in a shirt that had given us.


never forget this experience because I also know I have lots of friends.

White Gelatin Like Cm Pregnancy

advice and Jam! ENDEMISM IN SEARCH OF LOST!

Friday 22/05 / 09
cazorleña
Another adventure awaited us at this weekend that from now on call the endemic area, lol for the exclusivity of its ravines
a couple of weeks ago we opened a large vertical cliff (endemism 1), because this week it would behoove the turn of endemism 2 that despite not having large vertical (35m rappel longer.), it has nothing to envy the beauty of its corners and the permanent flow.

I got home about 8.30 am the rest Moni, Eu, Rafa and James arrived at dawn and excited for dinner, or more precisely by taking wine at dinner hehehehe.

Saturday 24/08/2009

early breakfast and went to the large vertical cliff just what I'd done of which we, after passing the entrance rappels, we found that the flow had dropped since last fall.
Rafa sharing his knowledge of flora
access abseiling waterfalls
We change and improve some of the facilities, lack of material that had not completed at the opening of the first 4 rappels.

Las caras de sorpresa aparecieron nada mas llegar a la primera de las grandes verticales mas de 100 metros.
Hostia si que está alto, jejeje
Jaime instalando, que gusto tenerte de nuevo plenamente con nosotros


Primeras terracitas
Eu leaving the second division, Rafael and Jaime in the 3 rd and Moni down to the bottom
Views last leg from below spectacular



The second vertical 60 meters shorter but no less beautiful, is accessed through a small cave, we had a drinking problem and Moni was the volunteer who came to fix the mess, lol.
Moni entering the cave

vertical harmony in the past, I did not know he was going to do twice
Here if you knew, lol in full ascent, under the supervision of Rafa

After coming from behind and eat, the plan was to make the ravine full opened two weeks ago, but for various reasons only did U.S. and Jaime, thanks to them we modify some data in the rush mole the opening was not correct.
Jaime hull model with newly imported Jamaican

The rest took advantage of the afternoon in different ways, for example Rafa reaffirming the topic of napping in Andalucia.

After the wonderful dinner prepared by Europe with the collaboration of Moni we pulled some more quickly than others.
Domimgo 24/05/2009

breakfast appeared in full command of Jaén, formed by Carlos Berrios, Pumuky and Antonio and together we left to make the opening of endemism 2 one of the three gullies that we had inspected and recorded the approaches and returns two weeks ago and I Juanjo.

On the way we found a small deer in the middle of the road it aside and later his mother picked him up.

The most comfortable, Jaime, Eu, Moni, Rafa and I went across country to the bedside, Rafa who devoted the morning to shoot photos of nature without stopping, the car fell out .

Louie installed Prime rapelito

But the hardest work on my note to the drawing, hahaha.
!!!!! Here is a specimen of the family of the "Barranquerus segureñus" !!!!!
the ravine in principle not very promising, full of brambles, but soon enter a more educated and embedded zone interest grew while we were riding rappels in total 9 all with water.
And here is a group of hominids recalling its origins
Now this is Spain, Jaime worked in the first place and a lot about encouraging
Hi I'm Bert, this is "inside the cave" y. .............( see next photo).
And this is "outside the cave."
That piece of Hilti running
Although not seen very well
Hilti Here is the manual for the other failure I hope that never happens, lol

Carlitos waiting

Eu enjoying


Carlitos the longest rappel.

Antonio rappelling then would try to stay dry and wet


someone trying to recover and had it caught. Who will
Moni installing the last rappel
variant
last rappel or act of faith to rappel from the bush.
Nothing but you have to see my face, lol.

The isolation and unspoilt area saturated our needs to enjoy nature through canyoning. (In short, a Burrowing orgasm, lol).

Eating on the edge of the ravine, coffee bar and each bird to its nest until we fly close together, for I am sure will be very soon.
