Dr. Knop Talks Astronomy
Dr. Knop Talks Astronomy Title: Superluminal Jets in Quasars Date: Saturday, June 27, 2009 Time: 10:00 AM Pacific Time (SL Time) Location: The large amphitheater on the sim named StellaNova SLURL: http://slurl.com/secondlife/StellaNova/213/210/32/ Abstract: Special Relativity -- an extremely well-verified theory -- tells us that nothing can move faster than the speed of light. Yet, we observe jets coming out of distant active galactic nuclei that appear to be moving faster than the speed of light. What's up with that? In this talk, I'll describe why it is that they appear to be moving faster than the speed of light, how that can happen without violating Relativity, and talk a bit more about this highly energetic jets of plasma we see emerging from distant galaxies. This science talk is intended for the general public. All are welcome. It's part of a series of popular talks called Dr. Knop Talks Astronomy. Dr. Knop was on one of the teams that discovered the accelerating expansion of the universe. Feel free to ask questions or make comments. Produced in association with the Meta Institute for Computational Astrophysics (MICA).

From: Patricia F Anderson patriciafanderson@gmail.com June 16 (Tuesday) 1:30 pm SLT-2:15pm http://slurl.com/secondlife/Virtual%20Ability/54/169/22/ Health Care New Media Marketing Conference: Connecting to Consumer's in Today's Healthcare Environment Second Life: The Key to Futuristic Communication and Patient Care Health Care Collaboration & Community in Virtual Worlds & Second Life Second only to the general concept of Web 2.0, virtual worlds are the source of more articles in PubMed than any other emerging social technology. Of the many virtual worlds, Second Life (a free, open source 3d virtual world platform) is the one with the strongest presence in health care communities, from patient groups and medical education to research and professional meetings. Second Life can enable health systems to create either public or secure private spaces for functions from patient education, outreach, staff training, remote meetings, or more. As with any social technology, understanding the context and norms of the online space are essential to making institutional engagement a success. In this session, we will look at case studies illustrating how some organizations have used Second Life for communication, collaboration and community engagement. Perplexity Peccable, also known as Patricia Anderson, is the Emerging Technologies Librarian for the Health Sciences at the University of Michigan, focusing on social technologies and Science 2.0. In this role she serves as the community manager for Wolverine Island, the University's home in Second Life. Ms. Anderson is also the senior author of the Medical Library Association Encyclopedic Guide to Searching and Finding Health Information on the Web, with significant expertise in systematic review methodologies.ImagiLearning TGIF Cruise
From: John Jamison john@imagilearning.com Nothing super special here, but I wanted to open an invitation to anyone who might be interested in talking a bit about how we all orient new people to SL and the virtual environment. After 5 years in-world and completing my PhD research on the topic, I've spent the past two years developing and offering a learning community based orientation experience called the SLemester Experience that is having some very positive response. After two years, one hundred percent of those going through the orientation are still active in SL, most of them VERY active. I'm not selling anything and have no soapbox...but want to invite any who would want to hear what we're doing, and talk about the other issues we all see surrounding effective orientation and enculturation activities. This will be our first ImagiLearning TGIF Cruise this coming Friday, 6/19 at 5pm SLT. If you are interested, just drop me an email or IM me in-world and I'll see that you have a spot. Space is open until it's full.... We'll either be meeting on our new cruise ship, the "ISS Just Imagine", or at the infamous North Beach Tiki Bar....it all depends on the mood at the time....
