In a sign of shifting attitudes toward biofuels, European Union officials are proposing to ban imports of certain fuel crops whose production could do more harm than good in fighting climate change, according to a draft law seen Monday. The proposals, to be unveiled next week, are aimed at enhancing the environmental credentials of biofuels like biodiesel or ethanol to counter concerns that European drivers are playing a role in destroying wetlands, forests and grasslands in areas like Southeast Asia or Latin America each time they fill up their tanks.

A magnitude 5.6 undersea earthquake struck India's remote Andaman islands region on Monday, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) said. There was no threat of a tsunami, an Indian official said, adding no casualties or damage had been reported.

The USGS had initially measured the quake at 6.0.

What's the big idea? Toward a pedagogy of idea power

Videoblogging a course by Jen Simmons Temple University, Spring 2006

people are at last asking, not simply ' What are mirror neurons?', but also 'How does this knowledge fit with current educational practice?' and 'What new educational strategies are suggested by trends in neuroscience?" In this edition of WWWTools for Education we explore highlights of the research literature, commment from around the Web, and implications for education.

Purpose The purpose of this Guide is to provide you with a general roadmap of some of the legal issues specific to podcasting. EFF has produced a very practical and helpful guide for issues related to blogging generally (http://www.eff.org/bloggers/). This Guide is not intended to duplicate efforts by EFF, and in many cases refers you to that guide for where crossover issues are addressed. Our goal is to complement EFF's Bloggers FAQ and address some of the standalone issues that are of primary relevance to podcasters, as opposed to bloggers.

The work and ideas of the intellectuals featured at this site give meaning to the term "third culture": physicists, evolutionary biologists, philosophers, biologists, computer scientists, psychologists, social, behavioral, and anthropological scientists, and science journalists.

Blogging as Pedagogic Practice<br /> <br /> <br /> Much of the published discussion and research on blogs and teaching and learning in higher education focuses one valuation of blogging as a communicative technique. This type of discussion largely assumes that successful integration of blogging into course delivery should be judged against a pre-existing and unchallenged pedagogical model. To leverage its full educational potential blogging must be understood not just as an isolated phenomena, but as part of a broad palette of“cybercultural” practices which provide us with both new ways of doing and new ways of thinking. The paper looks at the ways broader theoretical models associated with the development of the blogsphere might challenge or enhance current theories of teaching and learning.
