Why don't we treat science experiments like primetime TV?
Hodgkin and Huxley are credited with explaining the ionic mechanisms that underlie action potentials in neurons. Their experiment involved thrusting an electrode down the giant axon of a squid. They demonstrated their experimental methods on video, which can be found here: http://tinyurl.com/5vqscw There's something hypnotizing about watching meticulous lab preparation. On YouTube, the Hodgkin-Huxley squid video has over 14,000 views. I think it's reasonable to say that there are far more people today watching the video than there are people reading about the experimental method as described in their 1952 papers: http://tinyurl.com/ayta342
But low readership should be expected. Scientific papers are filled with jargon because they're written primarily for people who are an expert in the field. Videos, on the other hand, use visual language and can be appreciated by anyone.
When the findings of elaborate experiments have mass appeal, news sources may reduce the procedure and apparatus to only one paragraph. Imagine if news journalists supplemented their headlines about latest cancer-preventing diet with video footage of the experiment. I think the audience would be more critical, and some would be more likely to look for the original paper. Videos invite curiosity more effectively than text, and can inspire new uses for highly-specialized lab equipment.
But the biggest barrier to that ideal is intellectual property law. The Journal of Visual Experiments ( www.jove.com ) has an archive of high-quality, well-edited videos of research experiments, but the audience is limited to paying customers and institutions. Perhaps the distribution of such videos can be funded with web advertising alone.
The show "How it's Made" glorifies the manufacturing industry. Do you think footage and video editing of will similarly transform the public's perception of scientific research someday? If not, who or what is standing in its way?
Feb 21 2013: Hi Jay,
I have long wished that scientific papers could be more easily read and understood by the general public. I think your idea of videos being available for people to watch and learn from is a great idea. It would definitely capture more peoples' attention if instead of reading about an experiment, they could see for themselves how it was done. I hadn't heard of The Journal of Visual Experiments before but after visiting their website and only having access to a limited number of videos, I can certainly say I wish I could see more. I am not entirely familiar with the legal restrictions behind why these videos cannot be published, but I do think distribution of these videos would be good for the public. Shows like "How it's Made" have given people an entirely new awareness about how the manufacturing process operates and I would love to see that kind of show be made about scientific research. I think there are a lot of people out there who would be curious enough to watch a show explaining to them the incredible discoveries being made every day. The potential problem I see is that not all research done is very visually stimulating. Much of it is very technical, analyzing data and performing calculations. If a show were to be made, it would have to focus on a broad variety of the most visually interesting experiments being done in order to hold peoples' interests.
Feb 21 2013: One very popular television program around here that demonstrates how one can test hypotheses through ones own experiments is called Myth Busters. It is aimed at young people, but I expect it has a broader following.Feb 22 2013: I see your point. A lot of science experiments involve reading a digital output, while the changes aren't physically visible in the setup.
What would compel a person to watch a science experiment? The experiment, the discussion in the background, or the conclusion needs to be interesting. I think that there are still many examples that fulfill those requirements.Feb 25 2013: Hi Neema,
I agree that to attract the general non-scientific community with videos, the experiment has to be visually stimulating. However, having a visual documentation of a research/experiment is still valuable to scientists because they reveal information that may not be so obvious in papers or simply because it is easier to understand. The problem is, these scientific videos will not likely become popular enough to make it on TV. It is still worthwhile to videotape an experiment for a relatively small group of people though, given how inexpensive and easy videotaping is nowadays.

I think that a lot of the problem rests in disintrest. I recently found myself very frustrated when trying to show off a friends resume to a (clearly disinterested head-in-their-iphone) friend of mine. It wasn't that she didnt understand the engineering and inventing that went into his accomplishments, it was that, rather, she didnt feel as though the discovery/invention was useful, or even if it was, it was't available in the nearest shop!
I know that if a TV series that documented the works of a lab would either fail, or the science would have to be secondary to the dramatic chaos that would be written into the lives of the cute college interns who help the scientists work.
Finally, I want to encourage you, and raise your spirits! The new ever-growing discoveries are not lost onto the world. Perhaps not on TV, but on the internet I always see things on reddit, stumbleupon and facebook that discuss new achievements, inventions and ideas being worked on today. For instance, a facebook page (in)appropriately titled "i f***king love science" ("3,658,224 likes · 5,682,294 talking about this") posts graphics, links and articles about modern discoveries, as well as a weekly image summarizing the most important and relevant discoveries of the preceding week! If you dont mind the occasional f-bomb on your news feed, I definitely recommend subscribing to their page!
Feb 26 2013: Hey, maybe there's some potential in mixing science with trashy reality tv. It sounds like some science exposure's better than zero, which is what I imagine too many people at home are seeing. We can take baby steps in the right direction if we don't forget the end goal :) Could this idea potentially mislead people, or can the scientific research and the people be independent?
- +1
Feb 26 2013: I would definitely be interested in something like that. It's funny, because I know certain people that even though they're not chef's themselves they are very interested in competitive cooking shows. Perhaps, a component of science can be turned into something like that.
I agree with Avi, and as many commenters posted on this conversation- an entire documentation of a scientist's research might be too boring. Even for the most interested scientist! But as you mentioned in your prompt, maybe episodes/clips of scientific research can be edited to cut out all the boring stuff. That's a major reason why I enjoy being a part of this TED community so much. There is an extraordinary amount of videos that explain years of scientific research in a 5 minute clip and I really get to enjoy it that way.

Feb 25 2013: Because our societal structure has promoted through hundreds of years the innate and instinctive abilities instead of the cognitive capacity, therefore is more burdensome for us to pursue and attend to mental processes that require analysis than to use simply our instictive abilities such as hunting, territorial dominion, sense of power, reproductive necessity, species perpetuation and others that are activated through the media very easily, when the cognitive abilities get involved we tend to block this messages and become "bored" by these otherwise useful concepts.

We are animals that want to eat the chicken not to analyze how the chicken came about.
Feb 26 2013: I like the way you're thinking about this. Cultural studies tends to forget instinct / evolutionary advantage.
But I've heard that orangutans have been observed to be very curious. Upon seeing a camera, for example, they might take it apart and put it back together.
Also, it looks like the human species has thrived because of our cognitive abilities that enabled us to develop agriculture. Wasn't agriculture built from scientific research?Feb 24 2013: Hi Jay - Thanks for your post!
I agree with Hindi that video footage in combination with scientific articles would be most effective. However, the level of interest in something like the Hodgkin and Huxely experiment might never be high for the general public. This is because that level of detail regarding the functioning of a nerve does not have any use in their day to day lives or their field of work.
That being said, I love the idea of launching a video campaign with general education in mind (Tedtalk is accomplishing this). This would not be useful to researchers as much as it would be useful to the general public, but it would amass interest, new students in the fields of STEM and, hopefully, funding. Imagine if something entertaining but educational went viral.
In order for these educational videos to be monetized through web advertising they need to invite web traffic. This is most difficult for the "boring" subjects. How do we make videos go viral and invite this web traffic?
It's all about proper marketing!
Look at this tedtalk by Kevin Allocca, discussing the subject: http://tinyurl.com/a7fqnjn
Kevin says that the videos need to be unexpected, have a tastemaker point of interest and have a large tech based community to spread them about.
We can also pay people to make videos go viral: www.virool.com
How do they do it? They target the audiences we want by looking at cookies on everyone's servers. They then place the video on the sites frequented by those people.
Thus, the people who will most likely want to the video will have access to it and then spread it around.
Virool explains how they work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRag4eCkqU4
Feb 26 2013: That's an interesting TEDtalk (For others: it was about how videos go viral. It argues that tastemakers and sharing within a community are what make videos popular. Not just the content of the video.)

In "The Chair" by Galen Cranz, Cranz argues that chairs that encourage a C-shaped slump are terrible for our spines, while squatting on the floor or chairs that promote autonomous sitting are more healthy. But Western culture will continue to love our slump-encouraging chairs until the social elite can convince them to switch. He argues that a designer's responsibility in society is to change culture for the better, by designing body-conscious chairs in a way that is also stylish and likely to be adopted by the social elite.
It's related to the MAYA rule of design: design the Most Advanced Yet Acceptable form of something to create the greatest impact.
Good marketing is also an important part of the process.
So until our culture's "tastemakers" are excited about understanding science at a high level, it won't become popular? Then maybe we have to design science information in a way that's conscious of today's popular tastes. That's tough.Feb 24 2013: Hey Jay!
The footage of Hodgkin-Huxley and the squid experiment is wonderful; it's almost hypnotizing in its mundanity until you realize the weight of the experiment that they're conducting. In saying that, I think that there needs to be both: we need scientific papers to provide the background necessary to appreciate fully the research being conducted, but we also need a means of showing the research and its importance to the general public. In the comments below, somebody mentioned this being akin to Mythbusters, but in reality the portion of the general public that watches Mythbusters doesn't get a firmer grasp on the science involved in the experiments. Those that have a working knowledge of physics definitely appreciate it, but I have friends who are art majors, who have never taken a physics class in their life, and they LOVE the show. They don't understand the science, even after watching, but it is a program they enjoy. Still, how many people would still watch without the explosions and the personalities of the people on screen?
I think the real problem is the level of science education expected of most people. In order for these videos to make a real difference, the scientific background just needs to be there. Maybe in the future we will have a more scientifically literate public, but in the meantime, I just don't think cool footage alone is enough to make people appreciate research in a significant way.
Feb 25 2013: I see. So TV series need to have long-term interest in order to succeed. But there's a tradeoff between popularity and academic depth.
Maybe we don't need to turn everyone into researchers then. I think that a real difference can be made if people simply became more skeptical of non-scientific sources of information.
Maybe people don't need to be shown many different experiments to understand what goes into making a sound conclusion. A couple of very good, interesting, and thorough examples, in the form of a documentary movie?, are what people need to see.Feb 24 2013: Jay, Thomas Edison once said invention is 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent prespiration. IMO when we take the "short cut" of showing the video of the results the viewers would miss all of the effort that went into the "final" results.
A good instructor would allow, within reason, mistakes. It is through these errors that we review documentation and findings that will lead us to victory. Failure is a important component of research. Failure can mean growth or death to a project depending on the researcher.
Reality is that one bad teacher can turn off a generation in his classes. Whereas one good teacher can make a generation appreciate science and a few to go on to greater heights.
TV shows a photo of a snow leapord ... it does not show that a photographer camped out for over a year to get the picture.
Good luck. Bob.
Feb 24 2013: That's a great point: a fuller picture of the research field would not only be more honest, but also more appealing. If we limited film to successful perfected experiments, we miss out on the people and the decision-making. When we can have an audience that forms opinions on the research, maybe we've succeeded in engaging them. ("You should give up because it didn't work three times" versus "Keep trying, you'll get it!" for example.)
Feb 24 2013: The importance of documenting each step ... following the scientific method .... isolating ... triple blind applications ... all the biggies.
Communications and collaboration are factors that I encourage. Some people want to go it alone. That is okay too. But I always point out that sometimes even the best of us get stuck in a rut and do not see it in ourselves.
Thanks for the reply. Bob.Feb 26 2013: agree with you wholeheartedly in principle, but i must out that teachers are obliged to follow the policies set by education department bureaucrats, psychologists, school boards, and principals, none of whom teach now and most of whom never did. it's not about the teacher being good or bad these days, it's about how good they're allowed to be.
Feb 26 2013: Ben, Often the school administrators have no input either. IMO ... The most power in education is held by the book publishers and the test writers. They provide a daily teachers guide to follow that will teach the test. Additionally Arne Duncan who wants complete control of education has added Common Core Curriculum to the teachers load ... the states add a standardized test that is still required by No Child Left Behind ... The only person not represented here are educators ... and I might add no regard for the student either.
The hoops that teachers are required to jump through are higher and smaller than ever before. They literally have no time for anything other than to prepare the student for the test ... pay attention I am (literally) only going over this once .... you don't get it tough ... absent - tough .... sick - though ...
The USA got its butt whipped in the PISA Exams so the government has the red tail and is acting like they care when in fact it is a brused ego that is being treated. In doing so the feds state do it my way and by my rules or we cut off your funding.
That being said ... if the states maintained the rights given to them this threat would be hot air. IMO ... I do not see the Dept of Education listed anywhere in the Constitution nor many of the other Departments. So the problem could be resolved by going back to a Constitutional government and allowing teacher to do what they are trained to do. Just sayin ...
Thanks for the reply.
Feb 26 2013: thanks for the follow-up! the book publishers and test writers publish under the direction of the education department, which actually thinks it's helping students by forcing schools into tests, they don't actually teach themselves so they are misguided and don't realise how counter-productive these edicts are. the school administrators then fail the teacher by giving school boards (who also don't teach at all) the power to adopt or veto texts and curriculum material, and punish teachers who don't toe the line no matter how terrible it is, instead of helping those who try their best to make the most of a bad situation.
these standardized tests are absolutely terrible. a properly written test that tests student communicative and analytic abilities instead of just rote knowledge that may not even be properly comprehended are what's needed; a test should be to determine what a student can do, not a test of whether they can pass a test or not. state education boards are just as much to blame. you want good students? ask the teachers instead of telling them. i'm even hesitant to go as far as "what they are trained to do", remember teachers are usually trained by university professors who've been out of the real classroom for at least a decade. personally i learned how to teach by trying a lot of things and throwing out that which didn't work, which means i don't use any of the methods i thought would work or i was taught were the way to go!Feb 23 2013: Jay,
What a question! I'm glad you mentioned the online video format for science education and things. In fact, there is a whole Youtube science community (Veritasium, Periodic Videos, etc.) dedicated to these kinds of visual experiments. But this raises an interesting point that although television is one of the main communications mediums in the world today, I don't think it will always be so. So, it might be that scientific content might never reach the television. However, the television watchers might eventually reach the scientific content on the internet (the song "Video Killed the Radio Star" comes to mind).
I love your concept, though. It's so important to make sure that people who have even a very low understanding of science (but have high interest) have access to short methods of conveying information that will help make the world smarter. Which is why I love TED-Ed, as well as Youtube channels such as SciShow among other things. So, maybe it's better for science to remain off of long-form media such as television?
Feb 24 2013: I agree, it looks like we're moving towards more interactive ways of watching videos. And online streaming is an even better way to watch academic videos because it allows us to digest information at our own pace, rewind and rewatch, or pause and learn outside of the video.
You touch on another important point: People are discouraged from learning whenever they can't find an answer to their question, especially an answer that they can understand. Information can be presented in a way that accommodates everyone, or in many ways designed for different levels of prior knowledge. Which is better?

Feb 21 2013: Hi Jay,

I definitely appreciate your question as I think about this idea frequently. With creation of organizations, such as TED, society has been able to access ideas and experiments more than ever before. This allows for us to contemplate different concepts that we might not necessarily focus on in our life. This flux of new ideas is definitely very beneficial in many respects.
As you mention, with short scientific videos displaying experimental methods becoming more available, we have a unique opportunity to discover the ways in which various theories were developed. However, there are some risks with transforming to this way of conveying information. These videos tend to be short and to the point. For many, this is actually very convenient. But I fear that we might lose some of the depth and knowledge that is behind these experiments.
With our high-paced moving lives, we rarely have the time to read rigorously about experiments that don't pertain to us. These quick videos provide us with an opportunity to be exposed to numerous research Yet, we won't achieve expertise without the dense scientific papers. I worry that with increasing quantity, we might lose quality.
Feb 22 2013: Yeah, there are a lot of tradeoffs to consider. When we teach someone a difficult subject by simplifying it, we pose the risk of making them overconfident in their knowledge. This is important when they plan on passing that knowledge on in some form, like if they're going to do an experiment and share the results, or if they're going to take that knowledge and teach someone else (which will often distort the information). It's a lot like how the news often distorts science. Whoever makes the videos should be very careful not to mislead.
But I think that we can remedy these problems by always pointing to more detailed sources, and including a disclaimer. The potential for innovation that comes with increasing people's interest in science, to me, outweighs the risks.Feb 26 2013: Yes Jay, thank you for your comments, however curiosity is not a cognitive ability but an instinct developed through innate abilities for search, defense and attack, when you see a dog apparently recognizing the word ball and chasing the round object in a payful manner the reality is that the dog is training its skills of defense, attack, hunting and curiosity, although humans may seem curiosity as part of the analytical capacity of the brain, it seems that curiosity is a more simple task with its origins in the survival skills necessary on any species.
Humans have definitely improved (used loosely) due to the cognitive and analytical abilities of our brains, the development of agriculture yes is definitely the result of a series of observational, learning and deduction processes, however the beginnings of agricutlure were mostly rudimentary and aimed at satisfying a necessity more than a scientific analysis, empirical learning has been with us up until modern times and even games played by children tend to enrich the instictive nature of our brains more than the logical or deductive capacity of our brains. the evolutionary advantage has blurred the separation between our instinctive nature (stronger in primtive times) than the cognitive and analytical abilities we have improved and developed through our evolutionary process, hence the conclusion in my opinion is that our brains and mind have become more analytical, yes, but in most cases the hunting, perpetuation, defense, feeding, curiosity and even love as natural insticntive abilities of our species are the predominant factors in determining what represents an interest to us, no wonder that prime television has a sexual,violence, even the sense of integration innuendos that are very popular among humans, whereas the mental process required to advance a logical conclusion or a mental process tends to be tedious and burdensome. that seems in my opinion why science is not a prime time material.Feb 26 2013: i wish that were the way to go, but the fact is that real science these days i extremely boring - and i studied to be a biochemist! experiments in most fields are hours of repetition of putting different amounts of stuff in different vials and spinning them or heating them, and if you're lucky you might be able to conclude that yes substance X inhibits process Y! whoop-dee-doo?
people need to have a background in science to understand what was behind the experiment, and appreciation for the field itself to understand why the experiment is worth doing, but even then the possible future applications of the result are usually unclear, and it will be decades before anything useful and even remotely interesting comes of it. even on this site the most popular video is not about science or even engineering, but the things a non-educator with no teaching experience whatsoever has to say about schools, probably because schools are familiar to almost all. think of all the hype the iphone generated, touchscreens are 60s science but everyone is amazed to have them in their phones.
it's unfortunate, but science can't be packaged for mass-consumption in a way that doesn't stop it from being science.
Feb 26 2013: Hi Ben,
I appreciate your comment about how scientific experiments by nature are very difficult to package in a way that will make people want to sit and watch. However, I do think there is potential in the presentation of advances in scientific methods. It could essentially be a knock-off of "How Things Work". I feel like perhaps that type of idea is what Jay had in mind when proposing this question. These kinds of videos could inspire people (particularly, the youth) and encourage further scientific innovation.Feb 25 2013: A Tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit invented by Nikola Tesla around 1891.It is used to produce high-voltage, low-current, high frequency alternating-current electricity.

Feb 24 2013: haha, thanks Jay :)Feb 24 2013: Not a chance! No killing or steamy love. TV is for keeping reality from the masses, not showing it to them....AKA Rome.Feb 24 2013: I don't know the answer unfortunately. All I can speculate is that TV is ALL about the ratings. Perhaps the execs out there in TV land simply don't see any money in scientific experiments?
I get frustrated by it all, especially day time tv(in Australia) where not only is intelligent tv not on the menu, but it goes completely in the other direction. Psychic Bullshit artists are regulars for example. They sell their trade unopposed. The host presenters don't question the legitimacy of these con artists at all. Now I don't believe for a second that the TV execs buy into that rubbish. They don't care that the constant bombardment of unintelligent TV is dumbing down our societies, all they know is $$$ & ratings.
Want science on TV? Find a way to make it interesting, accessible & don't show stuff that directly or indirectly contradicts the supernatural. Cause the supernatural is exciting!
Feb 24 2013: Hahaha. Yeah, the media likes to say that they decide what to show based on what the consumer wants. The media does not fully realize that they partly control the taste of the public. (Think fashion magazines and the way they choose models.)
When people have learned something interesting, they feel some pride and they want to share it with their friends. I have faith that someday, current scientific research can be popular on television (or whatever form of media takes over), but we have to take baby steps in the right direction.
Channels separate topics -- and people. TV-watchers identify with a list of channels. There is a channel for news and a channel for science, appropriately called Science in the US. Why do they need to be separated in the first place?
Feb 24 2013: Well I hope your right :). A science channel? No fair! I for one would love it. There is so much we don't know, even for those of us who like the sciences. Such limitless potential. And to think how some smart tv could teach & inspire a children as they grow up.
I went to watch a show called wonders of the universe. & not for the first time I had to turn it off when joined by my girlfriend who's reaction to seeing anything with science/politics/religion is always, 'what is this shit your watching.' That's what your dealing I suspect in a lot of cases. I'm not sure about this, but I think I recall hearing that females in general(not all females!) aren't interested in theses subjects... Perhaps there's an underlying reason behind it, and a little bit of psychology research may clarify whats going on there?Feb 23 2013: Jay,
I think that science will never be able to reach primetime status. Think about the human population and the average intellect level. Science and experimentation (such as that of Hogdkin and Huxley) are things of high intellect. Most people in the world will not understand what is going on, leaving them to not care about the subject as a whole. Now think about primetime television. The stuff that makes it on the air is what satisfies 'most' of the people who watch TV. I would have to say that most of these people are simply uninterested in science. Obviously, discoveries such as that of Hogdkin and Huxley are important to the science world, but they stand much lower on the totem pole to the general public.
As a side note, I love "How It's Made"... its Canadian producers know how to put on a good technical show that you wouldn't normally see on prime time TV.. and get viewers! I personally wish there were more science-based prime time shows, but I also understand why there is such a large void in that category.
Feb 23 2013: I agree that a highly scientific show would not be widely accepted by the TV-watching public.
However I reject the idea that most people /cannot/ be interested in science. I believe that most children are curious about everything, but as they get older, they begin to think that they are not smart enough to understand science, or that science is for boring people and social outcasts.
I guess that there are at least two questions raised by this discussion: How can we make the general public (especially the youth) more interested in performing scientific research? This is difficult because of the reputation that the field has.
But also: How can we better communicate scientific experimentation methods to a wide scientific community?
Feb 24 2013: At the urban middle school where I taught, kids were typically very interested in science.It helps that science tends to be very inquiry/experiment based in school these days and that there is so much very public excitement around high profile discoveries.Feb 21 2013: great topic, should be in Ideas categoryFeb 21 2013: Good

What is the best way to stimulate a tired mind and body?
Between school, work, and social life, a typical day in modern society can be exhausting; sometimes from lack of sleep or just plain stress. I want to know what is the safest, most economical, most reliable, and effective method to feel energized and focused when sleep is not an option. Is it drugs (i.e. caffeine), focus games online (i.e. luminosity.com), certain diet, types social interaction, or something else?
Apr 6 2013: Hi Johathan,
You are a young person, and you have a tired mind and body already??? Yikes!
What do you mean "sleep is not an option"? Sleep is necessary for the human body/mind to heal, regenerate, and recharge. MAKE it a priority!
What are you "stressed" about? There are situations in the life adventure, and "stuff" happens all the time. We can feel "stressed", and spend time and energy with that feeling of "stressed", or we can learn to manage and prioritize those things in our lives that are important to us.
In my humble perception and experience in observing others, drugs and online games simply add more stress, because they do not enable you to take care of some of the priorities which you may be stressed about, and which might be more important.
Sleep is important, good exercise is important....even if it's only a short walk every day.....walk or bike to where you need to go rather than ride in a car....take stairs rather than elevator when it's an option...be creative!
Good healthy diet is important. We cannot expect to feel stimulated with a healthy mind/body if we are fueling it with junk food. Learn about what foods fuel and stimulate the body/mind, rather than deplete the energy.
Spend time with people who are energized and share that energy with you, rather than with people who deplete their own energy AND yours (people who complain, moan and groan a lot, rather than making good choices for themselves).
You have many choices in every moment of the life experience. Be clear with what you really want and make a sincere effort to follow through with your own plan. A "typical day in modern society" DOES NOT have to be exhausting, and if you make good choices for yourself, a "typical day" can actually create more energy......then you sleep well at night:>) Ask yourself how important the health of your body/mind is to YOURSELF, because every single choice you make impacts the body/mind:>)
Apr 6 2013: Thanks for your comment! Very well put!
I guess most of my energy is consumed trying to keep up with school and extracurricular activities. I tend to overload myself, than end up regretting it later. I see what you mean about priorities, though. I might have to take some time to realign my own life. Thanks Colleen! :)
Apr 6 2013: You are welcome Jonathan....and thanks to you as well:>)
Listen to your own words my friend...."I tend to overload myself, than end up regretting it later".
Both "overloading" AND "regret" use up time and energy that can be used differently. Sounds like your solution is already in the works!!! It doesn't have to take a lot of time to "realign" your life....take small steps....make small changes, and your whole life experience changes:>)
pat gilbert
Apr 6 2013: Manage your energy. What time of the day are you the most productive? Get rid of the trivial and focus on what is important. Do what is important during the time when you are the most productive.

When I can't sleep, due to stress etc., I either go dig around in my garden or sit on my front porch swing with some nice music playing & a cup of something hot. Even looking at clouds does wonders. I just let my mind drift & find its own level.
But the best advice in the world won't help if ya never try it.
Sometimes the simple things work best.
Apr 6 2013: I love walking through the woods also to help me relax and refocus! i agree, just generally relaxing for a little bit would probably help some. Thanks for the comment!Apr 6 2013: Gail and Jonathan,
I agree Gail, that sometimes, the simple things work best. I often hear that people cannot sleep because of mind chatter....thinking about what they "could" do....."should" do.....etc. There were times, when I spent time thinking about what I "should" do, rather than "being" fully in the moment. All that mind chatter uses up a LOT of time and energy that can be "spent" more productively. Relaxing helps calm the mind chatter. It also sometimes helps to remind us to "BE" in the moment.

Apr 6 2013: I lived most of my life sleep deprived. It was not worth it.

Others have said this already, and it is worth repeating.
If you think there is something more important that getting enough sleep, you are thinking wrong.
Organize your life around getting enough sleep and staying healthy. If you don't, all those other things that seem more important will suffer because you don't get enough sleep. It is not a trade-off. Sleep and good health are what make you productive so that you can do the important stuff effectively.Apr 6 2013: I think you must already know this answer.
To keep myself physically strong, . . .
Take care of your body so that it will serve you well for an entire lifetime. That means eating nutritious foods, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly to build strength and endurance. it also means avoiding harmful drugs, alcohol, tobacco, and anything else that can harm your health.
. . . mentally awake, . . .
Develop your mind both in the classroom and outside of school. Be curious about everything around you, and work hard to make the most of your abilities. With an inquiring attitude and the willingness to ask questions, you can learn much about the exciting world around you and your role in it.
Sleep is not only an option, it is a requirement. Using chemicals provides marginal short-term benefit at the expense of long-term problems and risks your health. You are at a time in your life when the competition with others can influence opportunities. Be as prepared as you can be, take it seriously and stay as focused as you can, but remain in harmony with nature and yourself. Outside these bounds the stress is self-induced and will reduce your ability to compete.
In many competitions, you do the best you can do, learn form your mistakes if you can, then be satisfied with your effort. You can make corrections to study habits, learn new material and try new things as time and energy permits. However, it is easy to be overwhelmed by the apparent stress and finality of short-term dramas. Success in academics and life is a long-term proposition.
Your physical and mental health is your foundation. Stay focused on your end goals, work to achieve them. Just like Scouts!
Apr 9 2013: Thanks for the comment! I probably do need to reaarange some things in my life, but I feel as I need to just finish this schoool year out strong (anyway I can, within reason, of course), and try to approach college differently. A fresh start I suppose. Great advice. thanks :)

Apr 6 2013: Sleep, exercise, time outdoors, and avoiding junk food. Interacting with positive people rather than people who bring you down or who are high anxiety. Time with the family pet.Apr 6 2013: Jonathan, First congratulations on achieving Eagle Scout. In reference to your question different things work for different people. I had a small area I was responsible for and I encouraged a eleven to one break for lunch and gym time. I considered a lot of studies that said companies get about two hours of work from a employee in the morning and about two in the afternoon ... observation told me this was about true. I took the two in the morning but by adding gym time extened the work effort in the afternoon to about four. I found that exercise on a regular basis release chemicals into the body that revitalize you. That and the shower after gets me going.

There is a lot to be said for a proper diet, proper rest, and stress relievers. I cannot say what is best for you but try the inclusion of one or more of these and if they do not work then nothing was lost and ... unfortunately .... nothing gained.
I wish you well. Bob.
Apr 6 2013: Thanks for the comment! And thanks for the congrats!
Your own experience with this is really interesting. If i had more autonomy with my schedule, i would definitely take a break for fitness in the middle of my day. Unfortunately, I'm a senior in high school, taking several college-level classes. All the same, great anecdote and advice! Thanks :)
JonathanApr 6 2013: a pills not allways the answer . all its doin is activating something you already have inside.Apr 6 2013: alleviate stress through meditationApr 6 2013: i use to have the same problem. about 3 hrs be for bed go for a walk and every once in a while during the walk slow jog to keep heart rate up. good for the body and mind. i have ran and finished 4 marathons but pushed to hard and stopped the marathons still go for the walks thoughApr 6 2013: stimulants.

The only best way is sleep.
It is determined by our instincts,
which are our ancestors' successful experiences.
That is why humankind spends 50% of their life to sleep.
(For details, see the 1st article, point 12(3), at
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D&id=D24D89AE8B1E2E0D%21283&sc=documents)Apr 6 2013: Well, it might be helpful to split this into two questions, as they seem quite different. One is how to deal with lack of sleep, and the other is how to deal with stress.
With lack of sleep, I don't know, as I've almost always gotten enough sleep. My thought would be to prioritize and cut out some activities so that one can get enough sleep. There is a saying "Business before pleasure." This saying would suggest one should do the business of one's life, in your case school and work, before the pleasure, socializing. Actually, we wonder where school and work fit in your life-balance? What sort of schooling are you doing? What are you working towards? Must you go to school? Perhaps your life goals can be met by leaving school and entering the work force? Or how about your work? If you are going to school, why are you working? Can you find a way to go to school only and work less, or not at all? It's a bit hard to help you prioritize without knowing more about your life. I might add that one should not cut socializing, or recreation, 100%. There is also a saying, "All work and no play makes Jonathan a dull boy."
As far as stress goes, well, reprioritizing if it comes to that ought to help. Also, you could see a psychotherapist. Some people would recommend religion, although being an atheist I find it hard to recommend that. Again, it would help to know what exactly is stressing you. Are you in some highly competitive, or difficult, school program, such as a pre-med program? What is your motivation for being in that program? If whatever you are studying is stressing you, could that indicate it's a bad fit for you, and you shouldn't be following that line of study, after all, we should enjoy our study, and our work.
I would say to help you the best we would need to know more.Apr 6 2013: Congratulations on your achievements, but get enough sleep. You do want a long productive life don't you?

Start Part Time
June 22nd, 2010. By :Admin
Start Part Time
How many times have you been asked to join something because you were tempted by the offer of making $10,000 a month?
When I 1st started in Network Marketing I was constantly getting side tracked by board games and funny money programmes that promised the big money. It got better. You were normally promised the big money and the need to sell anything was minimal and you were going to get 'spillover' from those above you and it seemed so easy and before you knew it the $300 or $400 has been paid and then reality set in.
Oh … I need to be good at recruiting to make real money. But I am new and don't know how to. Could you help please?……… Is anyone there? ……Hullo?
Then the next phone call is from the same sponsor who has a new program that is better than the last one and this will be different and if you pay your entry fee you will be looked after and you will get spillover and you will be trained and Bang… there goes another $300.
If this sounds familiar don't worry. We have all been there.
From my own experiences I have tried enough of them to know that those who get in 1st do well and those who have large lists do well and when the buzz dies away after a couple of months the operators pocket a lot of cash and then pop up with another 'better' scheme later.
For some people that is fine but for me I would prefer to build a long term business that will here in 12 months or 120 months time.
I would prefer to offer someone new the opportunity to start earning a small amount of income from home every month while training them to grow their business to the level of income they desire. If that means it takes 3 years to learn how to earn $10,000 a month then so be it but they will know that every dollar they invest will be returned and will be returned with growth, then I am happy.
It is very rare that someone can start full time in Network Marketing and make a full time income straight away.
It is common though that everyone can develop a full time income from Network Marketing if they are prepared to follow a system and put in some honest work over time.
Invest in yourself and partner with a team of champions who are in this business for the long haul with a company that has been around for along time.

Two new council members and four incumbents were elected by Chesapeake Beach residents to serve on the town council for the next four years.
Mayor Bruce Wahl, who ran unopposed in the election, received 1,387 votes. Wahl, who was at the town�s polling place, the Northeast Community Center, on Election Day, said he saw a good turnout of voters and he was happy a lot of people cast their vote.
Candidate Jeff Krahling will sit as one of the six council members after receiving the most total votes out of any candidate, with 1,101 votes.
�It�s such a blessing, and I feel so proud to be honored with this,� Krahling said of being elected and receiving the most votes.
Krahling said he believes �the citizens spoke� through their votes. He said he feels working with the other council members will be a great opportunity and he believes they will all be able to move the town forward in a positive direction.
�I�d like to thank everybody that put in their time and their talents, and I�d like to thank them for all of their efforts,� he said. �Thank you to those who prayed for me and I definitely would like to thank my Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus.�
Wahl said he has known Krahling since they ran against once another for mayor four years ago and he believes Krahling is �well-prepared for his role� as a council member.
Another new face on the council will be Eric Reinhardt, who received 878 votes. Phone calls to Reinhardt were not returned as of press time Thursday.
Wahl said although he did not know Reinhardt very well, he believes he will �bring a nice perspective� to the council.
With the second highest vote count of 985 votes, incumbent Pat Mahoney was re-elected to the town council for his fifth consecutive term.
�I�m delighted that the citizens have once again voted for me in high numbers to serve them,� Mahoney said. �More so, I�m elated about the council that they chose.�
Mahoney said he believes �the town really sent a message� because the �top four victors� were those who opposed annexation and still hold small town values.
�It�s a wonderful makeup that we have on our council,� he said. �It�s going to be an exciting four years. We hope to do wonderful things for the citizens of our town.�
Incumbent Valerie Beaudin, who recently sparked controversy during an October town meeting by amending the town�s proposed zoning ordinance to remove the bonus density overlay district from Veteran�s Memorial Park to 31st Street, was re-elected to the council after receiving 890 votes.
�Needless to say, I�m absolutely thrilled I was re-elected, but now the real work starts,� Beaudin said. �We really need to deal with Beach Elementary � [and] we still have the water and sewer rate structure.�
Beaudin said she was happy to have �a nice mix of town council folks.� She believes the newcomers will bring new and interesting ideas to the council while the incumbents will bring their experience from having served previously to the table.
�I�m looking forward to serving another four years,� she said.
Incumbent Stewart Cumbo, who received 854 votes, said he was looking forward to serving with the new council and moving forward with the business of the town.
�I�m happy to be re-elected and to continue to serve the town. I was a little disappointed that some of the potential candidates who were running didn�t make the council,� Cumbo said, adding that he thinks �we�ll have a working relationship� with the elected members.
Incumbent Bob Carpenter, who received 850 votes, said he appreciates the confidence the voters have put in him by re-electing him for a second term.
�I see it as they appreciate and approve of the job I�ve done and have asked me to continue to do it, and that�s exactly what I plan to do,� Carpenter said, adding that he plans to be prepared for and attend every meeting that he can and actively participate in the discussions.
Carpenter said he is looking forward to working with the five other council members in the next four years.
�We certainly had disagreements in the course of the campaign � but that�s what campaigns are all about,� he said. �As we move forward, we have to keep in mind what�s in the best interest of the town.�
Wahl said since five of the six incumbents ran for re-election and four of those five people won, �My interpretation of that is that people by and large like what we�ve been doing.�
When asked what issues the new council would deal with first, Wahl said, �There are a lot of things that are out there, especially the utility rates.� He said there were �a lot of opinions expressed about that during the campaign,� adding that he hopes the council can �bring that to a common point of view.�
�I think it may be challenging at times,� Wahl said of the council, �but we�ll see how it materializes. It will be a very different dynamic than it was before � and time will tell, but I�m optimistic.�
Incumbent Julie Spano, with 828 votes, and candidates Wes Donovan, with 740 votes, Frank Purdy, with 604 votes, Jeffrey LaBar, with 481 votes, David Hendry, with 473 votes, and Gail Harris, with 460 votes, were not elected to the council.
The new council will be sworn in at the town�s monthly meeting Dec. 20.

1 cup
plain yogurt
1 cup

1 teaspoon
white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon
lemon juice
1 small
cucumber - peeled, seeded, and finely chopped
green onion
garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup
crumbled feta cheese
1/2 teaspoon
1/4 teaspoon
lemon zest
salt and pepper to taste
I loved this recipe!.....I used Fage Greek yogurt (non-fat), low fat sour cream......and made this sauce the day before I served it......The flavors and texture of the cucumber were excellent. I served this on Greek Style Garlic Chicken on this site in a whole wheat pita....hubster loved this sauce as well....Thanks 5THSISTER.....great recipe!
The secret to the perfect tzatziki is home made yogurt/sour cream because the real greek sour cream is much more sour than the american sour cream which is actually very mild and sweet. This recipe is good but far from being authentic! There is no feta cheese or vinegar in the original recipe...but it tastes good and the lemon and vinegar are a smart solution for the lack of sourness in the sour cream!

This is INCREDIBLE. I made this last night before bed and had it to snack on today. WOW. I just can't get enough. I did add a couple more chopped green onions. That's the only change I made. This one's going to be made a lot. It really is delicious.
Last night, I made a special trip to the grocery store for the few ingredients I didnt have for this dip. I read the other reviews and its so funny how our taste buds "read" different foods. I thought this dip was VERY tasty, and consider it a lovely addition to spring/summer parties where several fresh foods are often served. My husband thought it was a pleasant change from otherwise "heavy" dips...
Why didn't I make this sooner? Easy and very tasty. Served with Abby Benner's Souvlaki. I thought maybe all the good reviews were because 5th Sister is a beloved member of A/R but no it's just a really good recipe. My only thought is that this recipe does not show up when you are searching for tzatziki sauce and some cooks might be missing it.
I made this for the first time to serve with snacks for overnight guests. It was really yummy; my only 2 *issues* w/it were my fault (and I'm sharing so others can take my experience into consideration): 1. it was a little runny, which I'm sure is because I used ff sour cream and yogurt...next time I'll have to decide if I'd rather have it lighter or a little thicker. 2. I was lazy and did not further crumble my feta so there were big chunks throughout. We all really enjoyed this; thanks for a great recipe 5thsis! Oh, I served w/assorted crudite and pita bread.
This recipe turned out just like how my favorite Greek resturant makes it. Delicious!!!
I used greek yogurt instead of plain, red wine vinegar instead of white, and changed the oregano to dill and it was wonderful!! Also, I added extra dill and cucumbers as a personal preference. My family always loves this and there is never any left!!

No more fairy tales from Disney?
Word on the street and in the press today is that the Walt Disney Company will no longer produce fairy tales as themes for animated feature films. "Tangled" will be the last.
As this article asks... Is it a good or bad thing?
Only time will tell. There's nothing etched in stone that Disney won't go back to the fairy tale as a subject for its animated features, but for now, it's looks like it's a wrap.
Through the years on the long history of the AN Forums, one of the chief complaints the community voiced was that of Disney consistently turning to the fairy tale and/or musicals as a mainstay for its features. No longer a problem.
Let's see which way they go from here.
Daily Z
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
The Disney company state the same thing in the 80's and produced Oliver & Company. Funny thing was 5 years later they created Little Mermaid, Beauty & the Beast, etc, etc, etc. So never say never. I think that its good to have a break, but its just that.
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
I'd heard on the news that Disney made such a statement based on the returns of "Princess and the Frog".
Then I heard in the same report how "Aladdin" was their mainstay regarding the stats they got from that movie.
The Disney Princess line and the fairy tale line were the things that made Disney enjoyable. Is it that we've run out of fairy tales to use for fodder?
There are still other children's books that can be adapted to the screen. I liked the Disney musical stuff.
We'll have to see where this goes as obviously PIXAR is leading the pack in animation revenue at Disney and PIXAR doesn't rely on fairy tales but original content to a degree.
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
Yeah original content like Toy Story 3, Cars 2, Monsters 2 & Incredibles 2!
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
They were original when they first came out Paburrows!
Popular enough to spawn those record breaking box office sequels.
There are just so many fairy tales Disney could exploit. They would have to make some up. It may be that the world has outgrown fairy tales or outgrown them the way Disney tells them.
Fairy tales traditionally were violent and terrifying stories that got 'sanitized' around the middle of the 20th Century.
It's now up to Disney to buckle down and be the top dog in animation or they'll lose that market to newer, more talented people who can market intrinsic works.
With the rift caused by Disney regarding the animation workforce of the past 10 years, it will have to establish more than a paycheck to get those creative minds willing to make the sacrifices that Walt Disney could get his artists to do.
Pixar does this. They know the value of the talent not being just an addition to the office like chairs and tables.
Keep your talent happy and you'll beat all the odds.
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
I'm delighted that Disney finally has a bonified hit on it's hands. Plus, "Tangled" is a darn good movie.
The question remains, what happens next? Will Disney ever fill that big empty building? Will artists be respected again or will they continue to be treated like disposable farm workers?
Let's not start dancing in the streets just yet.
Re: No more fairy tales from Disney?
Disney indeed be may rethinking their decision as to whether or not they should produce more fairy tale based content for their animated movies as "Tangled" did better on its opening weekend than any previous Disney feature with $69 mil so far.
As for animation artists getting respect from the studio's executives and the scene at the lot in Burbank, well... I defer to Mr. Fun and his knowledge of the situation.

Drama, Suspense/Thriller
In 1958, as part of the dedication ceremony for a new elementary school, a group of students is asked to draw pictures to be stored in a time capsule. But one mysterious girl fills her sheet of paper with rows of apparently random numbers instead. Fifty years later, a new generation of students examines the capsule's contents and the girl's cryptic message ends up in the hands of young Caleb Koestler. But it is Caleb's father, professor John Koestler, who makes the startling discovery that the encoded message predicts with pinpoint accuracy the dates, death tolls and coordinates of every major disaster of the past 50 years. As John further unravels the document's chilling secrets, he realizes the document foretells three additional events-the last of which hints at destruction on a global scale and seems to somehow involve John and his son. When John's attempts to alert the authorities fall on deaf ears, he takes it upon himself to try to prevent more destruction from taking place. With the reluctant help of Diana Wayland and Abby Wayland, the daughter and granddaughter of the now-deceased author of the prophecies, John's increasingly desperate efforts take him on a heart-pounding race against time until he finds himself facing the ultimate disaster-and the ultimate sacrifice.

"Be Creative @ Your Library" Summer Reading Program Kick-Off Event

The event runs from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. with the workshops beginning at 1:00 p.m. Workshops will be presented by Ellis Kell (Music), Rick Eugene (Magic), the DePriest Puppets (Puppeteering), and David and Stacey Houk (Illustrations) and will begin every hour on the hour and will last about 30 minutes. Children who participate will be able to take home a percussion instrument made out of recycled material, a handmade puppet, and their very own magic trick.
Oh yeah – listen up Twilight fans. Groovie wizard rock band, Bella Rocks!, has just been booked to help us celebrate the kickoff of the 2009 Summer Reading Program. Her vampy songs are inspired by the one-and-only Twilight Saga (by Stephenie Meyer), and are comparable to the sounds of Paramore and Avril Lavigne. Mark your calendars now for the party – Saturday, June 13. It all starts at noon – Bella Rocks! will hit the stage at 4:00. Want to know more? Visit www.myspace.com/bellarocksmusic. You can also download her album, "Diary of a Forks Girl," from iTunes and Amazon.
The day's events will include Summer Reading Program sign-up, fun and educational workshops, crafts, music, cookies and juice, and a chance to become part of history. Everyone who participates in the writing and illustration area will have a page that will be submitted to a book that will be professionally bound and placed in the Richardson-Sloan Special Collection Department.
Registration is not required for this FREE event! For more information contact Steve Hart at (563) 328-6833 or visit online at www.davenportlibrary.com.

Joey Porter. I still can't believe I bought that one, but I was riding high from 2008 at the time when I did lol.
Die hard Dolphins and Devils fan.
I was thinking the other day that this is something the Miami Marlins should do to help reach back out to lost fans. Many fans bought jerseys last year because they were a new design. The players they bought were mostly Ramirez (Dodgers) Reyez (Blue Jays) Johnson (Blue Jays) Buhrle (Blue Jays) All traded in a salary dump during the first year of their new era of Marlins Baseball.
I'm building a time machine so I can witness the good ol' days.
Culpepper. Hands down.
Not to mention I bought the hand stitched jersey. SMH...
"Fundamentals, technique, execution -- primary. Scheme -- secondary."
"We will incorporate an aggressive, up-tempo, attacking style in all three phases of the game."
"Our team will play with discipline, poise, and maximum effort."
"I want us to be the best tackling team in the NFL, the best team in pursuit, I want to take the ball away from other teams, I want to rattle the opposing quarterback every opportunity we get."
-- Joe Philbin 01/12
Never bought a Jersey, never will..
Deshaun Watson is the TRUTH!
I get a pain in my wallet every time I look at my Henne jersey.
A world of dew,

We've been fans of Flatpak home designs for quite some time, but are continually impressed when we find more of these unique, customizable prefabs in full form. This home in Aspen, Colorado, is our latest Flatpak discovery courtesy of Jetson Green's Flickr habit. We're captivated by the setting of course, but also decidedly enamored with the owner's choice to combine the Flatpak custom components into this amazing abode in the Rocky Mountains.
We don't have all the details on this Flatpak, but from the looks of the owner's Flickr photos it appears that they've optimized the capacities of personalized prefab. If you aren't familiar with the Flatpak system, it's basically a beautiful way for homeowners to piece together prefab elements into a design that suits them. Owners can pick and choose exterior wall and window components, exterior finishes and interior materials. When these are all chosen, a design team puts the choices into plans and gets construction rolling.
We would love to get more of the juicy details on the Aspen Flatpak, and if we do we'll definitely keep you posted. In the meantime this prefab just might go to the top of the list as one of the most memorable prefabricated dwellings we've covered.

I have three blogs on tumblr under the same email address. How do I delete one of those blogs without deleting the other two?. Preferably, I'd like someone to answer whom has encountered this problem before and solved it without deleting their other blogs.. Thanks!.

I'm always very intrigued by these flatpack and modular ideas, but most of them seem ridiculously expensive. 200 to 300 bucks a square foot? I can do a lot better than that with a normal wood-framed house, especially if I do a lot of the work myself. I thought the whole point of all this modular stuff was to make the process of home building more efficient – shouldn't that make it cheaper too?
The same goes for green roofs and underground homes – the cost to build them is outrageous. I want a green home as much as the next guy, but I'm not going to spend 500 grand on a home to get there.

Spring is slowly emerging and we are dreaming of outdoor barbecues and parties on the deck. We have a couple of solar powered lanterns along the pathway, but we have been waiting for some lights with a little more pizazz. Last year we were excited to hear that Ikea would be stocking solar products, and now the first products are about to hit the market! These hip little lights are exactly what you need to brighten your outdoor spaces this summer.
Powered by the sun, Ikea's lights store the power in replaceable and rechargeable batteries. The lights themselves are all LEDs, which consume 70% less energy and last up to 4 times as long as regular bulbs. The beauty of outdoor solar powered lights is that you don't have to bury any electric lines or run outlets through the yard. Not only do they reduce your electric demand, but they are just practical and handy. You can take them with you on camping trips, bring them to you neighbor's party or even use them indoors.
Rechargable Table Lanterns – Not solar powered, but cute.
Unfortunately you can't buy them online yet, but you can view them here, and hopefully your local Ikea will have them in stock in the next 2 weeks. Prices are totally reasonable as all Ikea products are, so buy yours quickly as they are expected to sell out. There are outdoor posts, strings of paper lanterns, accent lighting, pathway globes, even a solar powered desk lamp. The cute table lanterns aren't solar powered, but are rechargeable. We like the vintage 1970's feel of the designs and think these are going to be a big hit.

Go behind-the-scenes (and in the tunnel) from the Houston Dynamo's 1-0 loss to Sporting Kansas City on May 12.
There is no doubt that CSN Houston has done a fantastic job telling the story of the Houston Dynamo. This week, CSNHouston's Tiffany Blackmon took a look at the special bond between two Dynamo players, one vet and one young gun, who are playing big roles in the 2013 campaign. Watch her feature on the relationship between Ricardo Clark and Warren Creavalle.
In this week's Kickin' it with Calen Carr, presented by BMC Software, CSNHouston's Sara Eckert hangs with the Dynamo forward at a local barber shop. The two talk about his rehab from his knee injury, his collection of vinyl records and more.
Having met in each of the last two seasons in the MLS Cup Playoffs, the Houston Dynamo and Sporting Kansas City once again renew acquaintances on Sunday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo return home off a two- game winning road swing, without shutouts in both, after a midweek 4-0 win at D.C. United. Sporting hit the road following a second loss in a three-game homestand, a late 1-0 defeat by Seattle Sounders FC. The Dynamo have knocked higher-seeded Sporting out of the postseason in each of the last two seasons.
