Understanding Conservation of Mass in Chemical Reactions
Grade: 11
Often students cannot understand from chemical formulas how atoms exist in compounds, and how they are rearranged during reaction. Furthermore, the concept of balancing reactions eludes them when they cannot actually see the individual atoms. To illustrate a reaction for them, They are split into groups and given "bingo" type chips of different colors. They then put them into groups as reactants, representing the compounds that enter the reaction. They will then break the bonds of the reactants and attempt to rebond them as products. In most reactions, they will see that without balancing they do not have enough "chips" to complete the reaction. However, if they add more of one or more of the reactants, they can then complete the reaction because they now have enough "chips". They will then transfer findings to a sheet, written as a balanced formula equation.
Understanding the Law of Conservation of Mass
Grade: 11
Using the COW, students will use either the program FRAMES or the flip camera and movie maker (their choice) to animate a chemical reaction in order to illustrate that all atoms involved are present at the beginning and end of the reaction, and that matter is neither created or destroyed.

A high-speed chase that started near Akron ended at the east edge of Brush when a pickup truck went off Highway 34 near the BNSF railroad tracks, went airborne and crashed.
The driver of the truck, Erika N. Mauch, 31, Lamar, was taken to East Morgan County Hospital in Brush for treatment of minor injuries from the crash and a pre-existing medical condition, Washington County Sheriff larry Kuntz said.
Mauch remained hospitalized at press time today.
"It was a pretty sudden stop," Morgan County Sheriff Jim Crone said of the crash that ended the chase at about 11 a.m. "It was a pretty violent stop."
The truck went off the right side of the road and down an embankment, then airborne for about 40 feet, stopping between two sets of railroad trucks, Kuntz said.
The chase started east of Akron on Highway 34 when Washington County Sheriff's Department Deputy Chris Marston spotted the truck near Platner and tried to stop it.
The truck had been reported stolen in Yuma; the Washington County Sheriff's Department was notified of the theft at 10:27 a.m., Kuntz said.
Kuntz and Lt. Tony Harms of the Washington County Sheriff's Department joined the pursuit at Akron. Speeds reached 105 miles an hour west of Akron, and Mauch was driving errantically, nearly hitting several oncoming vehicles headon, Kuntz said.
"It was rather precarious," he said.
Brush police and Colorado State Patrol troopers put out stop sticks on Highway 34 near the Brush airport east of Brush, but Mauch kept going on flat front tires, crashing shortly after that near the railroad tracks, Kuntz and Crone said.
Charges of vehicle theft, vehicular eluding, reckless endangerment and reckless driving are pending. Kuntz thanked all agencies involved in the incident.

When the idea of turning �The Hobbit� into a feature film, adding J.R.R. Tolkien�s �prequel� to �The Lord of the Rings� to the world of cinema, New Zealand�s favorite son, filmmaker Peter Jackson, who did all nine hours of �Rings,� wasn�t planning to direct it. The chore of transferring one book into two films was going to be done by Mexican director Guillermo del Toro. But del Toro went on to other projects, and though he has a screenwriting credit on �The Hobbit,� the reins went back to Jackson, and the two films eventually turned into three, starting with last year�s �The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.� When the final chapter, �The Hobbit: There and Back Again,� is released next December, there will be 18 hours of Jackson-directed Tolkien on screen. Jackson spoke about his current entry, �The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug,� last week in Los Angeles. Fans of cameos should take note: The director can be seen, looming large, eating a carrot in the film�s opening sequence.
Did any of the characters in the story benefit from you switching from two films to three?
I don�t think so. We didn�t really change a lot. We made the decision after we had shot most of the film. It was a decision based on what we HAD shot. We thought, we�re going to have to somehow cut a lot of this stuff out, or we can reshape it. So we did some more shooting. We did 10 weeks of shooting this year for the second and third films. What it does is let the characters drive the story. You want the narrative of the film to be told either through the dialogue that your characters are saying or the actions that they do. So that�s why we ended up wanting to give more depth to some of the characters. I was also acutely aware that when the cycle of releasing a movie each year was done, we would end up with six films, �An Unexpected Journey� being the beginning and �The Return of the King� being the end. And I did want to have a unity. I wanted it to feel like it was all from the same filmmakers.
You were actually working on all three films simultaneously. How do you distinguish each one separately as you�re making them?
We shot them kind of in chronological order-ish, to some degree. By the time we were done with the extra 10 weeks [of shooting], I was getting in my groove. It was interesting to get completely into the narrative of the story because as a filmmaker, you�re almost getting swept along with the characters. So the filmmaker is actually on the same journey as the Dwarves, to some degree, over that period of time. You�re telling a continuous story. It�s three movies, and you�re trying to make each one work individually, but it�s telling one narrative arc
The sequence of the Dwarves going down the rapids in barrels is one of the most exciting in the whole series. Was that a big challenge?
We shot that in different areas, on different rivers in New Zealand. We were on a river on the North Island where there was a gorge, like a rocky canyon, that stretches about a mile. At the head of the canyon there�s a big dam, and four times a day, like clockwork, they open up the sluice gates and they let this enormous torrent of water out. They do that for 10 minutes and then they close the gates again. We got a lot of the really hair-raising barrel stuff there. But it was too dangerous to use stunt guys. We didn�t dare put anyone in the barrels. We sent the barrels down empty, and we put the digital Dwarves in later. That provided for some of the more dramatic footage.
This movie�s got a great cliffhanger ending. Did you always know exactly where it was going to stop?
We did talk about it. Look, it�s very rare that you get to do films back to back, and to be able to end with a cliffhanger ... and we HAVE shot the last part and I DO know what happens in the film (laughs), and you will see that in a year�s time. I think I was about 17 or 18 years old when I saw �The Empire Strikes Back,� and it had a big cliffhanger ending, and it was like three years before the next one came out. So we�re being pretty generous at one year.

Chilly Chili
The Menu: An absolutely delicious chili! Kailey based her three-bean wonder on a recipe from The Engine 2 Diet, which she noted was easy to follow. The results were utterly scrumptious, and we heartily topped them with cheddar-style Daiya. Alongside, Kailey served a lovely mixed-greens salad with avocado and halved cherry tomatoes, and nice thick slices of rustic bread. Did we joyously top the whole shebang with Parma!? Yes, indeed we did.
The Goods: While the weather outside today might have been slightly more chilly than we would have liked, we braved it for the experience of dining al fresco for the first time in what seems like weeks. Thankfully, the commenting was red hot on yesterday's post, and we'd like to congratulate Big Mama on winning the first of five Go Vegan! 2010 Calendars by the lovely Sarah Kramer. Big Mama, send us an email with your name and address, and we'll send out your calendar! So, how can you try and win today's calendar? Leave a comment below about your favorite vegan chili recipe!

While I've always been crazy picky about chili, I LOVE vegan versions. I love almost everything I've ever made from VegNews - and I know my longtime vegan Sister in Law really loves the magazine & website, too.

My favorite vegan chili might be the one my husband made last night, it had 3 kinds of beans and was all kinds of spicy deliciousness!

My favorite vegan chili recipe? It's an easy one, perfect for crazy busy (or just plain lazy) nights:
- if you have time and have them on hand, some chopped veggies: onions, green peppers, etc., to taste
- cumin seeds
- any other seasoning you'd like
- 1 bottle of salsa, as hot or as mild as you like
- your choice of beans, cooked (from 1 cup dry or, in a pinch, 2-540 ml cans)
Sauté the onions, then the other veggies (if you're using them). Add the cumin seeds, sauté for a minute, then add everything else (salsa, beans, seasoning) and cook until heated through. Enjoy!

My fav chili recipe is pretty basic - beans (black & pinto), onions, peppers, cinnamon, cumin, cracked black pepper, salt, and tomatoes. Add in include avocado slices, diced onion, green chilies, & shredded vegan cheese & sour cream. My omni hubby & son love it as is, but dig in deeper when I add tvp or Gimmie Lean crumbles.

My homemade chili is my favourite - lots of onion, garlic, peppers, tomatoes, kidney beans, ground round, spices, and a smack of jalapeno, served over whole wheat pasta, and dusted with shavings of Vegan Gourmet (in either cheddar or nacho). I haven't met anyone who doesn't love it. ;)

My favorite is another Robin Robertson chili with black beans and butternut squash. It's not quite the right time of year for it in D.C., though. Robertson has an entire book devoted to chili recipes.
- August 26, 2009 at 10:18 AM
Chili in my house is usually a clean out the fridge kind of meal. I always had chipotle and quinoa, though. Its always different but always delicious.

I love all chili :) I don't know if it's my favourite, but I made a killer chili last fall ...it's my husband's favourite and it won two ribbons in a chili cook off. The special ingredients are: pumpkin, southern style black eyed peas, and vegan bacon! I am a chili rebel!

I love to add fresh corn to my chilli!
- August 26, 2009 at 10:21 AM
Chili and Macaroni.
Tomato sauce, red beans, some tvp, some coran and other veg and lots of chili powder. It's even better the next day when the macaroni has soaked up the extra sauce.

The Chile sin Carne al Mole from VwaV knocks the socks off of everyone I feed it to. Classic.
- August 26, 2009 at 10:23 AM
I can't spell today. I meant corn not coran. whoops
- August 26, 2009 at 10:23 AM
I love to make a variation of the chili recipe on the back of Bush's beans cans. But I use TVP instead of ground beef, and add Kale, Carrots, and Beets. Packs a healthy punch but it's super yummy.
- August 26, 2009 at 10:31 AM
- ninadelamorte said...
My favorite chili starts with a dried pinto, red, black and kidney beans. Soaked and simmered to just under tender along with a nice chunk of dried chipolte pepper. Then adding a large scoop of my fresh salsa, some diced onion and green pepper, a clove or two of crushed garlic. Adding a good bit of chili powder and some ground cumin and a bit of sea salt.Cooked until nice and thick. Five minutes before it's ready, I add some chopped fresh cilantro.
- August 26, 2009 at 10:32 AM
- Lorena said...
Well, I've always made my chili with plenty of beans, onions and peppers and am looking forward to adding some chipotle to the mix. But, a MUST-HAVE with chili is always vegan cornbread. Since I got a new cast iron skillet, I can't wait to make it in that. Yum!
- August 26, 2009 at 10:53 AM

I absolutely love chili with tons of beans and thick vegetables and TVP!
- August 26, 2009 at 11:08 AM
- Milinda said...
Chili is a mainstay for me. Whenever I make a batch, it is large enough for a couple of extra containers for the freezer. I use chili in burritos, or nachos, serve it with polenta, rice, tortilla chips or without anything at all. I usually use more than 1 bean--the more the merrier and the prettier.
I made my first mole sauce this weekend and I can easily see some of that cocoa powder finding its way into my chili pot. Yum.
- August 26, 2009 at 11:11 AM
I love to make chili in the crock pot -easy to do.
It is 92 degrees now and I'm looking forward to colder chili weather.
- August 26, 2009 at 11:25 AM
- Melanie said...
Well, this one certainly sounds good! But the one I make most often is from Robin Robertson's "Vegetarian Chili Cookbook". It's the 5 Spice chili, with chinese five spice powder and vegetarian ground round in it. I have tweaked a little for my personal tastes but really love this one. it's spicy and sweet and nice and thick.

I love the black bean chili recipe from "Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker." It's delicious, filling, and there is nothing better than coming home to a hot dinner that's ready to eat.

- mary-morgan said...
I like sarah's chili from "how it all vegan" its amazinngggg! Everyone I know that's tried it has loved it, and none of them are vegan except me. Its the first recipe in that section of the book. I use jasmine rice in it. I usually eat the whole pot, even though it makes enough for like 20 people haha. :)

My favoritestestest chilli is the one from Angelica Kitchen at NY. It's a great combination with their yummy cornbread!
I received the Veg News Chocolate Chilli recipe in my e-mail and can't wait to try it out. I just love it when totally unexpected ingredients get used in a normal recipe!! I'm beginning to think it's going to be a new favorite! NOM! :)

Any vegan chili will do- whatever veggies are around the house and whatever beans are in the cupboard. So easy and wonderful. And healthy, of course. :)
- August 26, 2009 at 1:38 PM
I make a nice veg. chili. I use great northern beans, garden fresh peppers, and home canned garden tomatoes -- yummy.
- August 26, 2009 at 1:47 PM
- Al said...
Some things that always make chili better:
-- Sun dried tomatoes (especially if you aren't using a meat analog)
-- Liquid smoke
-- Cubed Vegan Gourmet cheddar.
-- Saltines

My favorite is one I have been making for more than 30 years - The cashew chili from Cabbagetown Cafe in Ithaca, NY (in Julie Jordan's Wings of Life cookbook).
- August 26, 2009 at 3:06 PM
Mmmmmm...nothing warms up a cold Minnesota winter like my mom's vegan Black Bean Chili, chock full of fresh veggies and of course, black beans. Now I'm feeling homesick and wishing it was -20!! :(
- August 26, 2009 at 5:28 PM
I was all fine with the Chocolate chili recipe until the coffee. You lost me there.
I love black bean chili with lime squeezed on top!
- August 26, 2009 at 6:00 PM
My favorite Chili is Amy's Kitchen Chili. I add extra veggies like brocolli and cauliflower to it and it is so good.
- August 26, 2009 at 10:12 PM
- Amy said...
My favorite chili recipe is one I made up myself using seitan, red kidney beans, a red pepper, onions and garlic and the usual chili seasonings. It is super easy to make and doesn't have to simmer for hours (but it can) and tastes even better the next day. And the best part? My son LOVES it!

White chili! beans, garlic, cumin, pepper, not chicken base, tofu. Yum, and oh so simple.

Dad: Jenkins aware of trade talk, has trainer
Carolina defensive tackle Kris Jenkins is working out with a personal trainer, preparing for the possibility he will be traded, his father said Wednesday.
Darome Jenkins,speaking from his home in Hawaii, said Kris called him after seeing the Observer's story on the subject of a possible trade. St. Louis, Denver and Kansas City are among teams rumored to be interested.
"He took it all in stride; he said, `Well Dad, I've got to go see my trainer,' " Darome said.
Kris, who played at Maryland, is working out with a trainer and using the school's facilities.
"That's why he went up to Maryland, to get in shape without the distractions there might be in Charlotte," his father said. "They work him hard over at the university. I'm sure he's doing what he's got to do to get his weight down."
The Panthers prefer Jenkins to play at about 335 pounds, but he has drifted considerably higher in other offseasons. Last year, though, he was healthy and made the Pro Bowl after missing almost all of the two previous seasons with injuries.
Jenkins' agent, Tony Paige, has advised him not to speak to the media.
I made mention of Jenkins the other night in the MOCK MADDNESS thread but did not bother to open up that can of worms at the time...but today is another day and high time to get it figured out!
This offseason has already witnessed a massive overhaul of the Chiefs interior defensive line. To date Kansas City has re-signed DL Jimmy Wilkerson to a one-year deal, re-signed DT Ron Edwards to a four-year contract and added ex-Bear DT Alfonso Boone with a four-year signing. Surprisingly so far, DT Ryan Sims is still holding down a roster spot. The Chiefs remained busy exploring other possibilites as well by entertaining such free agents as Alvin McKinley and Ian Scott. Now word has it, the Chiefs might be considering a trade for Panthers Big-Butt DT Kris Jenkins.
Jenkins is a player though often injured and sometimes more than alittle over weight. But with the draft talent pool as slim as it is, the Chiefs may need to ventor into this possibility. Trading for Jenkins is managable but with a price. Carolina is rumored to be looking for a first day pick, and could very well accomplish this based on Jenkins' upside. To do so, the Chiefs will need to get creative in light of their low stockpile of picks. Provided below is one trade that could float:
K.C. to Carolina: FS Greg Wesley and draft pick #3/84.
Carolina to K.C.: DT Kris Jenkins and draft pick #4/118.
The Panthers are in need of several upgrades most notably at FS, LB and TE. If the Panthers were to accept this trade they could purse either TE Greg Olson or a trio of LBs Jon Beason, Lawrence Timmons or Paul Poluszny in the first round. They are still "protected" with a possible draft selection of LB Brandon Siler in round two or H.B. Blades or Stewart Bradley with pick #3/84. Additionally, TE Martez Miller and Scott Chandler should still be on the board at pick #3/83. Obtaining FS Greg Wesley would not only meet the Panthers/ needs in the secondary but also free up their first round pick.
Now onto the Chiefs and their interesting move with Jenkins...Kris is a monster of a man without question and in relationship to the other mentioned DTs on the Chiefs roster, almost seems out of place. If Jenkins were to be added, the question must be asked, "What would the rotation look like?"
Good question, glad I asked!! Well, it would seem somewhat off balanced and incomplete...
Jimmy Wilkerson at 290 looks destined for a backup role at DE once again, so depth is still an issue behind Jenkins.
Our "cracked-up" research staff at Cisco Kid Draft Nonsense (Me, myself and I) have rolled up our eyelids and gone a huntin'...
Depth behind Jenkins can and should come in two forms, (1) free agency and (2) draft. As far as free agency goes, believe it or not there is a player still out there that fits this need...DT Kenderick Allen. Allen was with the Packers last season but suffered a foot injury that landed him on the IR. But word has it that he is fully recovered and working out with hopes to land up with the Detroit Lions. Nothing against the Lions, but something tells me the Chiefs might just make for a better career move. But this move (signing Allen) would still leave the Chiefs on shakie ground due to both Allen and Jenkins' injury history.
Remembering that part of the trade for Jenkins involved obtaining Carolina's 4th round pick of #118, the Chiefs could close the book on their concerns with the interior defensive line by selecting DT Paul Soliai from Utah. Soliai packs his own punch with a frame of 6-4 344. Sure, as is the case with any and all draft picks, Soliai does have some baggage.
So anywho, there you guys go. Today if that hot babe at the office should look you up and down and ask,
"Say, you studly Chiefs fan what do you think about DT Kris Jenkins?"
BINGO! You my friend are set and ready to roll!!

Item Description
Letter, Your affectionate Husband [Joseph H. Trego] to My Dear wife [Alice Trego]
Author: Trego, Joseph Harrington
Date: December 21, 1857
Joseph Trego wrote from Sugar Mound, Kansas Territory, to his wife, Alice, in Illinois. Trego, in addition to elaborating on hunting and mill work, described at length the skirmishing between local free state and proslavery men, which had been continuous throughout the summer and fall. He reported the manner in which Missourians had seized and occupied lands in the absence of their owners, who were free state men. "Bogus courts" had brought the free state men who defended their lands to court, which resulted in so many fees owed that the men had to sell their land to pay them; the new owners were usually Missourians. Trego accused proslavery supporters of fabricating stories about destruction caused by warring Abolitionists in order to draw the support of the U.S. troops. Controversy over the Lecompton Constitution flourished in free state circles; the Free State Legislature in Topeka had repealed the "bogus laws" of the Territorial Legislature and appointed James Lane the head of a free state militia.

Ok guys. I was on a thread on the traders forum that turned into a big argument about cocker/shocker/matrix accuracy compared to Angel/mag/ accuracy (and range). Let fight the enless fight. Lets see what you guys think.
I personally do NOT believe all markers shooting the same velocity with matching paint to barrel match shoot the same. Dont get me wrong...I love my emag and its personally my favorite marker. I just dont believe its as accurate or shoots as long as my sfl cocker. Now I know the masses disagree with me.
You know the what I believe. I know Tom is the ultimate brain and in all his infinate wisdom he has a theory about this. Also, if im not mistaken....in a recent apg magazine he stated that LOW PRESSURE does not exist. Hmmmmm......If thats true like he says.....all markers have an instant velocity of 50000 fps. If im mistaken please let me know. Anyways....How come the shockers, tricked cockers, and matrix as well as a few others have so much better range and accuracy. Now I know many of you if not all of you will agree with Tom. But Ive owned most of the upper end markers out there and I have seen a difference.
Did anybody put into account about bolt pressure/speed? The emag bolt is supper fast and I believe it couses ball destortion. And if LOW PRESSURE does not exist....why have a dwell? What im saying is, if the low pressure theory doesnt exist, a dwell would be unneeded. The dwell is designed to allow more air (volume) into the ball breach to move the ball. With lower pressure you need more air volume. Lower pressure equals more gas usage. Now since Ive installed the level 10 bolt i have noticed a bit more gas usage. I have not really had a good day of play with it so it may now be just as accurate. If you guys have noticed any difference let me know.
Like I stated earlier the bolt speed is super fast on the emag. Doesnt the emag bolt move at about 20 fps? The cockers move at 6 fps right? Would this make a differance. Now dont get me wrong. Im not saying Worr Games have a better product. They make fine markers but I like my mags better. The exchange is volume over extreme accuracy. Lots of people say cocker accuracy is false. Im hear to disagree. As for the shocker.....extreme accuracy. So also with the matrix and Nasty impulse (i say nasty because its the best impulse i have ever owned).
Anyways.....LETS FIGHT!!!
I want to see what you guys think. Its all for fun. Im not really looking to start a WWF event here or nothing but a lil'bit of violence and nashing of teeth never hurt anybody...LOL. Really guys, lets see what you think. I will probably never change any theories you guys have and I will probably not change my mind but who cares. Lets have fun. This argument has been going on ever since the beginning.
Oh....and Tom is the man. I personally think he has the best run company out today. With people like Jon Comprado and the rest of the crew you just cant ask for more. Not only does AGD develope some of the best markers out there but the service after the sale is the best. You guys rock. And dont get me wrong with this thread......its just what I think and I want to start a fight.....LOL. You guys be cool.
