Watch air trafic live (eng) 8 Great Avatar Creation Tools for Teachers Avator tools are like the comic tools I have covered in an earlier post before, they both involve the use of images but in a funny and joyful way. Of course these tools can be used for a variety of educational purposes with our students in the classroom. Let us first see what is an avatar ? An avatar is a figure or character that you can create and customize the way you want. Why avatars in education ? A group of students in a history class could create an Avatar for different people in history (i.e., President of the United States, Governor of Alabama, African American students and families, White police officers, and Classroom teachers). Here are some of the best web tools to create avatars : 1- Voki This is a web tool that allows you to easily create speaking characters and customise them the way you want before sharing them with others 2- Build your wild self This web tool allows you to first design a human figure then add animal parts to it before you go wild. 3- DoppelMe 4- Frenzoo

Google - Waterfox My Shower Curtain is a Green Warrior by Elisabeth Buecher Seeing as we've been posting about water and the environment of late Elisabeth Buecher's My Shower Curtain is a Green Warrior (above) really got our attention. The goal of the piece was to show how water overconsumption could be countered in "either a disturbing or a gorgeous way" using innovative materials and inflatable technology. According to Elisabeth, "This shower curtain slowly inflates around you while you shower. Elizabeth is part Puff and Flock a new London-based textiles collective that launched at Interiors Birmingham with Designersblock earlier this year. From textilefutures.co.uk and Elisabeth Buecher: My approach to design can sometimes appear shockingly radical but I have got different reasons to legitimise that. + puffandflock.com + verydesignersblock.com "The spikes of this shower curtain slowly inflate while you shower.

- StumbleUpon WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD? Plato: For the greater good. Karl Marx: It was a historical inevitability. Machiavelli: So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road, but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely chicken's dominion maintained. I Drank Eight Umbreons And Slept On The Kitchen Floor: Frozen Pokemon Themed Cocktails This is a series of frozen Pokemon cocktails mixed by Tumblr-er Meow Purr Nom. They were inspired by Eevee and the eight different Pokemon it can evolve into. Personally, I'm feeling the Umbreon and Leafeons, but if you're buying I'll drink anything including wine coolers and any beers you can't finish. Truthfully, I don't usually go for frozen drinks because you can't drink them fast enough without brain freezing, but I will occasionally get one if the weather is warm. "But don't you live in LA?" Haha -- YES I DO. Thanks to Yum Yum, who sounds even better tasting and probably has less than half the calories.

Ad School Grads Crack Up Conductors on NYC Subway Halfway down each subway platform in New York City hangs a black-and-white striped sign. Before opening the train doors, a conductor is required to point at the sign to acknowledge (for safety reasons) that the train has fully arrived in the station. Rose Sacktor and Yosef Lerner, roommates and a former art director/copywriter duo at Miami Ad School, decided to use this little-known gesture as a way to acknowledge and even entertain the conductors who work so hard to shuttle NYC commuters around each day. "Conductors spend their whole day in that small booth, alone. The project—which was just for fun, not work-related—involved creating fun signs and holding them underneath the black-and-white boards, knowing conductors would definitely see them. "Point here if you are dead sexy." As you can see in their video below, the odd outing made several conductors crack a rare smile. Sacktor is currently an intern at Barton F.
