Quality in Environmental Analysis
Although this website by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) does not contain analytical data or methods per se, it is one that contains a complete compendium of links to material on environmental topics under the pervue of USGS. As such, it can serve as a resource and background material for students, faculty or practitioners interested in learning about environmental issues. For example, there is a link to Hg in the environment that discusses the sources, chemical composition and consequence o
Introduction to Capillary Chromatography
This site discusses many of the details in how ro convert a traditional HPLC system into a capillary HPLC system. Included in the discussion is how to use splitting to get to the lower flow rates required and how to pack your own capillary LC columns. There is detailed information on how to go about plumbing these sorts of systems (use of fittings, etc.), which may be valuable to someone who doesn't have that experience. The site also includes links to purchasing the components necessary for per

Silverlight TV 68: Worlds are Colliding! New Silverlight Web Parts for SharePoint Paul Stubbs, of Sharepoint Sideshow, joins John to discuss some new features the Sharepoint team have released for Visual Studio to make Silverlight development easier. Paul walks through the new Visual Studio extension that allows you to package and deploy your Silverlight for Sharepoint Web Parts. (You can grab the new VSIX file from the list of links below.) Paul also shows how easy it is to create a Silverlight experien
Ask a Rabbi: What is Passover? (2:24)
In this video, viewers learn why Passover is the celebration of the liberation of the ancient Israelites from slavery in Egypt. They left Egypt, crossing the Red Sea into the Sinai desert to Mount Sinai to receive the Torah and founded Israel. This is an easy to understand video that moves slowly and provides a good understanding of the practices and reasons for the celebration.
D-Day Invasion of Europe (2:01)
On June 6, 1944, Allied troops storm the beaches of Normandy in the largest amphibious assault in history. This is a good video that explains what happens on this day and has excellent graphics and clear explanations. A map of the area would be of benefit.
Astronomy: The Discovery that the Universe is Speeding Up
A 3:47 video that shows how astronomers discovered that the universe is speeding up and why this may be important. A good video to show students the importance of astronomy as a subject and some of the mysteries that are yet to be solved such as dark energy.
C21: Physics Teaching for the 21st Century
Physics Teaching for the 21st Century is a resource for teachers who are interested in teaching physics concepts in real world contexts.
The great problems of the 20th century were solved by a few incredibly smart people. The great problems of the 21st century will have to be solved by billions of moderately smart people. This is where teachers come in...
In this website you will find:
* articles that clearly explain the physics concepts in a real world context
* take-home experiments that ca

GC Splitless Injection Animation
This site is one in a series of sites with very good animations related to separations. This animation deals specifically with splitless injection in GC. The animations are short (one to two minutes) and can easily be shown in class as part of a lecture. They are extremely helpful in illustrating key components and concepts of chromatographic systems. Users are encouraged to explore the site and the other brief animations as well. Separate links to other simulations by the same company (TRSL) ar
