Israeli Designer Creates Bags Inspired By Pandemic's Most Famous Accessory
By Simona Shemer, NoCamels November 03, 2020 6 minutes

Israeli designers have has their hands full in recent months creating trendy masks in unique textures and fun prints to answer a surging demand for the facial coverings amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Kobi Levi, an Israeli designer known for his pop art style footwear and whimsical bags, has also been creating during these challenging times. And he's crafted some memorable works inspired by the health crisis.
"I always say [my designs] are a part of reality.They always reflect what's going on. Every time I create a new design, it comes from whatever's around me. Whatever I see," the designer tells NoCamels.

His newest designs, handbags which examine the lockdown and masks quite literally, "happened naturally," he says. When the first lockdown was imposed, "I realized that the most 'deserted' kind of accessory that can be in this kind of situation is a bag. Nobody needs a bag from room to room. Even with shoes, you walk the dog, you go grocery shopping," Levi explains, "I'm just looking at it from a different point of view and with a sense of humor about it."
SEE ALSO: Cover Up: 10 Innovative Types of Face Masks That Were Developed In Israel
Levi's first design since the start of the current health crisis in Israel was a handbag in the shape of a lock, playing on the word lockdown and because he "saw locks everywhere." His second design, a bag with the familiar shape and light blue color of a medical mask, was created because Levi occasionally saw people walking down the street carrying their masks like handbags.

"Even on my website, where I usually write my inspiration, I couldn't even write the word inspiration next to the mask. I can't say it's inspiring to me," Levi says, "I just said it's designed after the most famous accessory of 2019-2020."
Kobi Levi's Lock Down metallic leather handbag is priced at $800 while the Face It mask handbag costs $265.

Kobi Levi's worldwide fame
Kobi Levi's creations have appeared in museums, art galleries, and exhibitions around the world including at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, the National Museum of Art in Tokyo, high-end department store Selfridges in London, the Dutch Shoe Museum and earlier this year as part of an exhibit in Israel's Rishon Lezion Museum marking 100 years of women's suffrage in Rishon Lezion, one of the first Hebrew settlements in Israel. Levi was the exhibit's host artist and presenter.

Also earlier this year, conceptual fashion designer Jo Cope contacted Levi to create a shoe for an exhibition called Shoes Have Names. The exhibit, in collaboration with Shelter UK, a registered charity that campaigns to end homelessness and bad housing in England and Scotland, aimed to use the power of craft to bring awareness to homeless individuals. While Levi created his shoe for the exhibit back in March, due to the pandemic it was not presented until September at London Craft Week.
Levi created a red shoe (as every shoe in the exhibit was red) and called it Home Void because it featured a hole in the shape of the house. Levi said he decided to take out the generic home symbol from the shoes to create a void showing that one assumes a home is something that should be there for everyone but this is not always the case.
"It's a very subjective kind of theme — home. It means everything. For each one of us it has different shapes, different feelings. For me to take this big word and talk about it in different ways — I took a general home shape, like a logo, a square home shape logo, but I didn't want to design with it. I wanted it to be there but not be there," Levi explains, "So I took it out of the shoe."

He added that the straps of the red shoe form an X shape to once again point out that not everyone has a home.
Many of Levi's designs will also be exhibited in the upcoming Guangzhou Design Week in Guangzhou, China from December 3-6.
Shoe master
Back in 2010, Kobi Levi took photos of all the shoes he had handcrafted and posted them onto a blog page. The page was a hit and Levi, who graduated from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem in 2001, decided to open a studio in Tel Aviv. By the following year, he was selling his shoes to the public.
That same year, CNN referred interviewed Levi and referred to his designs as "wearable sculptures." He told the US news channel his shoes can be inspired by a number of things including an iconic image of an animal or character, a situation frozen in time, or a play on the shape of the foot itself.
The Kobi Levi-designed shoe worn by Fergie in the music video
Then the celebrities came calling. Nicola Formichetti, fashion director for Lady Gaga, sent Levi an email inquiring about his Double boot for use in Gaga's music video "Born This Way." Self-proclaimed shoe lover and actress Whoopi Goldberg has contacted Levi on more than one occasion to add to her shoe collection and has worn his banana peel slip-on shoes. Singer Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas also used two pairs of Kobi Levi's shoes in a music video.
Also, Levi created shoes specifically for Israeli singer Netta Barzilai who wore them as part of her look at the Eurovision Song Contest final in 2018, where she won first place for Israel.
Some of his top extravagant shoes include square heels shaped to look like two cats going at it, chewing gum heels featuring a stretched piece of gum attached to the heel (currently sold out on his site), and more than one pair of flesh-colored XXX shoes with heels that look like men's and women's private parts. Levi's newest shoe, Blossom, is a classic open flower heel based on pictures he took of flowers near his home.

When asked if he could choose any celebrity to wear his shoes, Levi said Madonna. He says her work is like "endless creativity from the start of the 80s. It's not just one thing, it goes well, and then you disappear. She's a very passionate person to continue and to take your own kind of way of creating and keep it going with different directions, different aesthetics, different collaborations. I really liked that."
"Blonde Ambition" shoes by Kobi Levi. Courtesy
Madonna inspired one of Levi's most interesting shoes, which he created as an homage to her Blonde Ambition tour in the early 90s. The shoe features synthetic hair in the style of a high ponytail and a point that looked like the performer's iconic cone bra, which was Madonna's look at the time.

Levi's shoes require weeks of intricate craftsmanship from the first sketch to the 3D printing to the actual creation of the shoe. Prices for Levi's shoes range from $265 to $2800 on his shop.

And I def find myself answering and talking to Shaun lol I loved that you said that!! There is a much healthier, thinner, and MUCH more physically fit girl in me dying to get out!

In addition to the quality of the apartments, location is also a huge draw. La Scierie is a couple of minutes' stroll from Ashford International station, which offers unrivalled rail links to London and Europe. London St Pancras can be reached in just 38 minutes, while regular Eurostar trains whisk passengers to Paris in two hours from this corner of the Garden of England.
Among the first tenants to move into La Scierie are young couple Amba Doughty and Harry Edwards, along with their four-month-old baby Harrison. They are "thrilled" with their first family home.
"We were initially attracted by the fantastic location so close to the town centre, the train station and the Designer Outlet but at our first viewing we were amazed at the quality of the apartments. We are so happy to make this our first family home," said Amba.
The property portfolio currently stands at 98 one, two, three- and four-bedroom homes, ranging from flats to detached houses and it is actively looking for more across the borough. Blocks of one- and two-bedroom flats and two- and three-bedroom houses are being sought.
The company needs to act quickly in the commercial environment to capitalise on opportunities such as the one at La Scierie, so the council has put in place arrangements for A Better Choice for Property Ltd to make the decisions it needs to in the marketplace.
A finance facility has been approved to enable the company to rapidly expand its property portfolio and operations. The council lends this money to the property company at a market rate, which ensures the company does not have an unfair advantage in the market. A Better Choice for Property Ltd makes money from market rents and the appreciation of its assets.


During my prior company, a vacation lodging within Much Northern Queensland, we'd more than 50 cleansers upon the payroll. One of several fascinating factors regarding the cleansers, as well as actually, through the years there is countless all of them, had been they just about all believed these people cleaned out much better than another cleansers about the group. All of them required this kind of satisfaction within their cleansing capability plus they might contentedly verbalise precisely how great these people believed these were. Strangely enough, they'd additionally contentedly discover problem within each-others function!
This particular very subjective viewpoint associated with exactly what comprises hygiene brought these types of great truthful industrious individuals to truly think these people do a more satisfactory job compared to relaxation.
Quickly We learned to simply accept they had been just about all proper — these people do perform a more satisfactory job compared to following solution (within their thoughts). The secret had been to find out exactly what facet of hygiene they "obsessed" regarding. A few cleansers might invest two times as lengthy on the kitchen area, or perhaps a restroom, underneath the mattress as well as the actual structures associated with pictures. This grew to become obvious in my experience that every person experienced the pet-hate or even pet-love/focus, plus they every experienced various places exactly where these people concentrated their own hygiene overview.
The actual very subjective character associated with hygiene is actually something which we are able to just about all connect with, actually business government bodies The actual Home Tenancies Behave within Victoria handles the problem associated with cleansing really freely, as well as very intentionally, using the phrase "reasonable" I am assured which i don't have to clarify exactly what the actual sensible indicates, nevertheless, this particular phrase can also be available to meaning, as well as perhaps intentionally therefore. Identifying what's sensible could make points very hard occasionally, particularly having a renter or even landlord that thinks which just their own requirements associated with hygiene tend to be, actually, sensible.
Area Landlord's responsibility with regards to supply associated with office space (1) The landlord need to ensure which about the day time that it's decided how the renter would be to enter profession, the actual leased office space tend to be empty as well as inside a fairly thoroughly clean situation.
Area 63. The renter should keep your leased office space inside a fairly thoroughly clean situation other than towards the degree how the landlord is actually accountable underneath the tenancy contract with regard to maintaining the actual office space for the reason that situation.
It's fascinating to notice which frequently, whenever tenants leave a house, they may be noticed to express "the home is actually solution compared to whenever we showed up! inch However, had been your kitchen solution compared to restroom? Had been the actual home windows solution compared to racks? Had been the actual wall space solution compared to tiles? Not really this subjectivity truly issues, since the just appropriate query is actually set up home is within the fairly thoroughly clean situation.
Numerous tenants may employ expert cleansers once they leave a house. This is really not really required (unless of course decided to inside your rent), nevertheless, it will can make existence just a little simpler throughout the mayhem associated with shifting away. However, you should keep in mind to find the carpets and rugs vapor cleaned out — this isn't very subjective hygiene which is the only method to ensure they're fairly thoroughly clean!
Man Besley has already established an abundance associated with encounter within the Aussie Home Home marketplace such as the travel and leisure business; through their preliminary expense inside a vacation device within Interface Douglas 15 in years past, to having 10 administration privileges processes and today their company is actually a third party reserving company.


The Town of Ash Grove was incorporated in 1871, thirty-five years after frontiersman and military serviceman Nathan Boone and his wife Olive made their family's home in a grove of walnut and ash trees. They raised fourteen children. Nathan owned 1200 acres and eleven slaves when he died in 1856.
Joseph Kimbrough also put down roots when he built the town's first store in 1853. Next came a blacksmith shop. But, Ash Grove didn't significantly begin to grow until after the Civil War.
When peace came, the rich territory in this place attracted many newcomers who organized the community as "The Town of Ash Grove" The census of 1880 was 500 and within 30 years, it grew to more than 1,075, as citizens built a large number of stores, an opera house, hotels, churches, flour mills, electric lights and improved streets. It was a growing into a prosperous little city.
Born in Ash Grove, Arizona Donnie Clark (1873-1935) is best known as Ma Barker, "a vicious dangerous and resourceful criminal brain," according to J. Edgar Hoover. She was mother to four criminal sons in an era of celebrated gangsters. At age 62, Ma was gunned down in a Florida shootout by the FBI.
Historic sites to see in Ash Grove include the Berry Cemetery, the Gilmore Octagonal Barn, the Phenix Marble Quarry, the 1800s Original Quarry of Ash Grove Cement Company, and the Abandoned "Leaky Roof" Rail Line, and the Nathan Boone Homestead State Historic Site.

Lothar Walsdorf (* 16. Oktober 1951 in Zittau; † 5. Juli 2004 in Berlin) war ein deutscher Schriftsteller und Hörspielautor.

Leben
Lothar Walsdorf wuchs ohne Vater mit Mutter und Großmutter in einem Dorf bei Bautzen auf, wo er viel Zeit allein im Wald verbrachte. Als seine Mutter erblindet und in ein Pflegeheim kommt, kam er 1961 ins Kinderheim. Damals begann er Tagebuch zu schreiben, meist in Gedichtform. Als er aus der Heim ausriss, kam er in ein Heim für Schwererziehbare. Bis 1967 war er in verschiedenen Kinderheimen. Einer sich anschließenden Lehrausbildung in einer LPG entzog er sich wieder durch Flucht. Ab 1968 lebte er längere Zeit bei einer Pflegemutter in Bautzen. 1969 machte er eine Lehre zum Chemiefacharbeiter und leistete danach seinen Armeedienst ab.

Bis 1979 lebte Walsdorf weiter in Bautzen. In dieser Zeit arbeitete er, um schreiben zu können, in verschiedenen Gelegenheitsjobs: Beifahrer, Museumsarbeiter, Fensterputzer, Restaurator, Wasseruhrenableser. Nachdem Franz Fühmann auf ihn aufmerksam wurde, bereitete der Aufbau-Verlag die Herausgabe seines ersten Lyrikbands Der Wind ist auch ein Haus vor. Seit Ende 1979 lebte Lothar Walsdorf in Berlin. Zunächst wohnte er bei einer Lektorin des Verlages und forderte dann öffentlich eine Wohnung, die er dann in Königs Wusterhausen erhielt.
Später war Walsdorf auch als Hörspiel- und Theaterautor tätig.

Am 5. Juli 2004 ist Lothar Walsdorf unter noch ungeklärten Umständen im Alter von 52 Jahren gestorben. Sein Verlag erfuhr davon erst durch eine Nachfrage beim Einwohnermeldeamt.

"Er hinterließ ein literarisches Werk, das noch auf seine Entdeckung wartet" (Agnieszka Lessmann im Hörspielkalender, DLF, 21. Mai 2005).

The First Reusable Tampon Applicator Is Now for Sale—Here's What an Ob-Gyn Thinks
This could be a big win for Mother Nature.
By Samantha Lauriello January 25, 2019
If you ever stop to think about how much plastic women throw away just from using tampons every month, you might feel guilty enough to apologize to the planet. It's not that we want to create waste, of course. But disposable tampons are the most convenient way to keep that time of month in check. Until now, that is.
Thinx has solved this period problem with their latest menstruation-related product: the first FDA-approved reusable tampon applicator, which they've branded the re.t.a. It's made of BPA-free, medical-grade materials and is compatible with most applicator-free tampons.
The reusable applicator doesn't actually come with tampons. All you have to do is pick up some tampons that don't have disposable applicators (you know, the ones that are just the cotton part), put the tampon into the re.t.a, and insert as you always do. Instead of trashing the applicator, however, wash it and put the cap on to store it for future use.
RELATED: Here's What Happened When I Tried a Menstrual Cup for the First Time
We're all for sustainable period gear. But we were curious about what an ob-gyn would think about it from a sexual health standpoint. So we reached out to Christine Greves, MD, an ob-gyn at the center for obstetrics and gynecology at Orlando Health in Florida. Dr. Greves tells Health it would be hard for any doctor to say yay or nay to this product because research on the safety of reusable tampon applicators is lacking. It was approved by the FDA, which certainly required some vetting, she says, but there's no data available through the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
The Thinx website says that cleaning and handling instructions come with the package. Still, Dr. Greves has some concerns about keeping the reusable applicator sanitary. "Blood is the perfect medium for bacteria growth," she explains. If you don't clean the applicator properly, it could attract bacteria in large enough numbers to give you an infection when you reuse the applicator the next time.
RELATED: 5 Tampon Myths That Could Be Messing With Your Health
However, because the FDA approved it, there must be an adequate cleaning method, she adds. Just make sure to follow the directions very carefully. If you decide to give the re.t.a. a go, Dr. Greves recommends keeping your regular tampons on hand as a backup for the first few days, just until you're sure the reusable applicator doesn't cause any irritation.
There's just one other catch: It's a little pricey. You can buy the re.t.a. on the Thinx website for $60, but don't forget, you're going to need to buy the actual tampons too. A pack of 40 applicator-free O.B. Pro Comfort tampons is $10 on Amazon.

'The Jungle Book' Trailer Looks Promising
By Mike Bitanga
Walt Disney's The Jungle Book from 1967 is one of the Disney classics that can hit us right in the nostalgia. In 1994, a live-action film was made where Mowgli becomes a full-grown man that must learn civilized ways, and although that wasn't bad, it steered away from the animated classic. Jon Favreau is taking the reigns now with his own version of The Jungle Book, and it seems to be promising.
One thing is for sure: this film has a stellar cast. Bill Murray will be voicing Baloo! That's all you really need right there, but wait, there's more! Christopher Walken will be the voice of King Louie, Ben Kingsley will voice Bagheera, Scarlett Johansson will take on Kaa, and Idris Elba will voice Shere Khan. It would be a shame to waste a cast like that, but it seems that the film is in good hands with Favreau.
Newcomer Neel Sethi will be playing Mowgli, and you can see him running and jumping throughout the trailer; so, no real glimpse at his performance yet. He definitely looks like Mowgli though, so he's got that going for him. At least they didn't cast Jai Courtney or Channing Tatum. The photo-real CGI used in the film seems like it will give a real sense of danger that will make the move genuinely thrilling. The real question is this: will they include any of the classic songs? Maybe "Bare Necessities" will sneak in there at least.

Song Inductions
National Music Centre
Slaight Music Emerging Songwriter Award
'To Sir With Love' inducted into Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame
Toronto – The latest entry into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame is a song that few realize is Canadian.
"To Sir With Love" was the signature hit for Scottish singer Lulu, who hoisted the tune to No. 1 for five weeks back in fall 1967. The song soundtracked the British drama of the same name, which cast Sidney Poitier as an inspirational teacher of troubled teens in London's tough inner city.
Montreal-raised composer Mark London wrote the sweeping tune with lyrics by Don Black, who co-wrote several of the most memorable James Bond themes.
"To Sir With Love" was recorded in Britain for a British movie with a Scottish singer — so most people always assumed it was written by a Brit, London explained.
"No one knows," he said in a telephone interview. "I don't think anyone thought it was Canadian."
London moved overseas from Montreal in 1965. It was there that he was approached with the opportunity to write the music for "To Sir With Love" — the catch being that he had less than a day to do it.
London sat down to the piano that night and wrote the song in about a half hour.
"To Sir With Love" began a long creative partnership between London and Lulu, who was managed by London's wife Marion Massey. Another bit of trivia: Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones provided the song's string arrangement.
With the song's induction, Montreal's Nikki Yanofsky and Toronto guitarist Dan Kanter recorded a cover for CBC Music, which they describe as a "campfire" rendition with "funked up" acoustic guitar.
Kanter, musical director for Justin Bieber and a music academic, calls the "romantically haunting" song subtly, astoundingly complex.
"I wonder … if it came out today, if people would respond to it?" he said in a telephone interview.
The tune has been covered by Al Green, Jann Arden, Tina Arena, Soul Asylum and Luscious Jackson.
"To Sir With Love" has also been belted out by characters on TV shows including "Sons of Anarchy," "Boy Meets World," "The Golden Girls" and "Glee," whose cast performed it "beautifully," London said.
So it remains relevant — to everyone but millennials, perhaps.
"I would imagine it's played a few times every day, because the royalties I get from BMI in America — it's quite a bit," London said. "They keep having new versions coming out constantly. Everyone knows it.
"The funny thing is, young people don't know it," he added. "If you're like under 30 or so, most of them haven't heard the song."

Later on the same afternoon we saw Okehampton castle, we headed across to Castle Drogo, the newest castle in the United Kingdom, built in the 30's by an eccentric family. In a perpetual state of repair due to the poor quality of the original building work, it is clearly a new building. The reason to visit however is the grounds it is set in, a beautiful combination of planned lawns, herbs and flowers, and wilderness it is worth an exploration.

Who's Sexing Up Your Teenage Daughter?
by 2Paragraphs in Daily Edition | May 13, 2013
PINK's Allover lace mini cheekster panty ($9.50)
Psychologists blame societal pressures for the troubling rise of sexualized girls' clothing – racy thongs and push-up bras for young teenagers. Easy access to pornography online has seeped into styles and popular culture, they assert. And parents aren't to blame: "It's a struggle for parents not to be meanies and come across as antisexuality," says one psychoanalyst. So who do parents blame? The usual suspect (particularly recently) is Victoria's Secret and its $1.5 billion-a-year PINK brand, with its youthful target demographic. PINK's audience is 15-22 years old, and management concedes that "every 16-year-old wants to be a 19-year-old." The company doesn't mind. The current PINK spokesmodels are Sara Sampaio (22), Elsa Hosk (24), and Jessica Hart (27). Each of whom has wanted to be her current self since at least the age of 13.
Seeing bodacious models in flirtatious, suggestive underwear, it's easy to assume PINK is run by an all-male staff–like all the lad magazines with similar photography. But PINK's top management is no boy's club. Among its female executives are Ms. Denise Landman (CEO), Ms. Sara Tervo (SVP of marketing and creative services), and Ms. Kim Schraub (SVP of Design), who is responsible for "the overall aesthetic of the Pink brand with a focus on optimism and fun, young, and sexy." So maybe it's not online porn like the shrinks think, maybe it's fear of shrinking sales.

Notes: Donnafugata Castle /'doʊn.nah fuː'gɑːtɑː/ is a fourteenth-century castle 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from Ragusa in Sicily, Italy.There are many local stories that try to explain the origin of the name Donnafugata, which translates from Italian roughly as 'the fugitive woman' or 'the woman who fled'. Following what the name suggests, one legend claims that Queen Blanche of Navarre, widow of King Martin I of Aragon, was in hiding from Count Bernardo Cabrera who wanted to marry her and assume leadership over Sicily. She hid in Donnafugata Castle until it was taken under siege by Cabrera, during which Giovanni Moncada helped her flee and hide again in the Steri Palace in Palermo. While this story may be true, it is not from whence the castle's name originates.

Wikis in a Pandemic
The code behind the Wikipedia article on the history of wikis
The first wiki was created in 1995 by Oregon programmer Ward Cunningham who named it after the "Wiki-Wiki" (meaning "quick") shuttle buses at the Honolulu Airport. They were meant to be web sites on which anyone could post material without knowing programming languages or HTML.
The most famous wiki is still Wikipedia which officially began with its first edit in January 2001, two days after the domain was registered by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger. This fact comes from, of course, an article on Wikipedia about the history of Wikipedia.
Wikipedia didn't get huge numbers of visitors immediately and it certainly didn't gain acceptance in academia for at least a decade. (Some might argue that it still isn't accepted by faculty for student use, especially when it is used in a copy/paste manner - but that's a different topic.)
I've been writing about wikis on and off since this blog started and a search on here shows 100+ mentions of "wiki" with about a third of those being actual posts about wikis. Most of that writing was in the first 15 years of this century, but I have seen some reemergence in wiki use among educators lately.
Back in 2005, I started getting into using wikis. Tim Kellers and I made one in order to teach about the use of wikis - particularly the use of open-source wiki software. It was what some would call a metawiki - a wiki about wikis.
Wikis were part of the Web 2.0 movement. when we started to think about the Internet as a place where we could build and contribute our own content rather than just read and consume.
In 2005, we were mixing wikis in with the somewhat sexier 2.0 tools like podcasting, blogging, and the photo and video sharing sites that were popping up. Then came social media and everything changed again.
That metawiki that Tim and I made 15 years ago no longer exists since neither of us is still at NJIT where it was hosted. It served its purpose which was to demonstrate to others how wikis are built, grow, get damaged and heal. It looked a lot like Wikipedia because we used the same software - Mediawiki - that was used to build Wikipedia. [Note: The wonderful archive.org did crawl our pages and you can see an archived version of our Wiki35 there.]
Brother Tim and I were doing workshops on blogs, podcasts and wikis which were three things we were sure were going to change corporations and education. Blogs and podcasts are still powerful and still growing. Wikis? Not so much.
People often described wikis as "collaborative web sites" and they were being used for things like project management, knowledge sharing and proposal writing. The benefits of this collaborative approach include reducing daily phone calls, e-mails and meeting time as well as encouraging collaboration. The Internet research firm, the Gartner Group, predicted in 2006 that Wikis would become mainstream collaboration tools in at least 50% of companies by 2009.
Midway between that prediction, I wrote in 2007 that by my calculation technology generally moves into the world of education in dog years because it seems to take about 7 years for widespread acceptance and usage. This is in comparison to the world outside education, especially if the business world.
It's not that you can (or should) use the application of new technologies in the commercial world as a gauge for what we should be doing in education, but schools certainly lag behind industry and home users in adopting and adapting technology.
By 2015, I was writing more about the disappearance of wikis and the devolution of Web 2.0. My own use of wikis as tools in my teaching was also winding down.
I had been using Wikispaces with students as a collaborative tool. I assigned students to work in a class wiki and also had students create their own wikis using that software. But Wikispaces started to shut down and was gone by 2018. Now you can only read about it on Wikipedia.
It has been five years since that post and I don't think I have written anything significant in the interim about wikis. Some people are still using wikis and Wikipedia is in the top ten most visited websites on the Web, but I don't see people building wikis for education (and perhaps not in corporations either).
Blogs like WordPress and DIY website services overtook wikis as free or low-cost ways to put content online in pretty packages, though few of those are collaborative in the sense of wiki collaboration.
I no longer work on any wikis other than editing Wikipedia and I don't think Tim does either. But just recently, amidst all the scrambling to get courses online due to the COVID-19 virus pandemic, I saw a few examples of wikis in education that make me think that we haven't completely hit the DELETE key on wikis.
One example is at coursehero.com with a Comparative Anatomy and Physiology course in which Dr. Glené Mynhardt has students create a wiki page on one specific animal phylum. In an article about the course, Explore More in a Survey Course with a Build-a-Wiki Project, Mynhardt explains how she uses Moodle which allows for page creation using easy cut-and-paste and drag-and-drop commands.
One missing wiki element in Moodle is that it does not allow public access which is key to the original intent of wikis. Mynhardt says "Students can view each other's wikis, but I can't share them with colleagues or [the public], and the students can't share them outside the course," so educators who want to make the work public may want to use other web page–building options. It's not Mediawiki but using these wiki tools that are in a learning management system like Blackboard or that tool in Moodle or in collaborative software such as Sharepoint or simply creating a content page in Canvas and allowing students to edit the page is a way to bring the collaborative wiki experience to students. And in this time of students sheltering at home and working online more than ever, collaboration is an important element of learning.

Reading on Screens Revisited
Posted by Kenneth Ronkowitz on Monday, February 10. 2020
An electronic book as imagined in 1935
I recently came across an article in Smithsonian magazine that was rather deceptively titled "The iPad of 1935." The illustration above comes from that article and originally appeared in the April 1935 issue of Everyday Science and Mechanics magazine. At that time they were thinking that since it is possible to photograph books and also project them on a screen for examination, that perhaps this would be the way we would read. Their illustration is probably closer to watching a PowerPoint presentation than an iPad, but the idea of putting books on a screen is not just an idea of the 21st century.
That article made me do a search on this blog to see what I have written about ebooks. In 2012, I wrote about digital textbooks ("Can Schools Adopt Digital Textbooks By 2017?") I should have revisited that article in 2017 to see what had come to pass. In 2020, I can say that publishers, schools and students have adopted ebooks and digital textbooks, but there are still plenty of books on paper being used by students.
That 1935 contraption uses a roll of miniature film with pages as the "book." It reminds me of the microfilm readers I used as an undergraduate in the library. As the article notes: "microfilm had been patented in 1895 and first practically used in 1925; the New York Times began copying its every edition onto microfilm in 1935."
It took about 70 more years for handheld digital readers that we use to come on the scene and the transition is still taking place.
Though I have an iPad and a Kindle, my home and office are still filled with paper books and magazines. I would say that the bulk of my daily reading is done on a screen but the screen is on my phone and laptop. When I have taught college classes online or on-site, I have offered texts as ebooks when possible as an option. I still find that some students prefer a Gutenberg-style book on paper.
That 2012 post of mine referenced an article about the then Education Secretary Arne Duncan and Federal Communications Commission chairman Julius Genachowski issuing a challenge to schools and publishers to get digital textbooks to students by 2017.
In 2012, there was a "Digital Learning Day" where there were discussions on transitioning K-12 schools to digital learning and using technology to transform how teachers teach and students learn inside and outside of the classroom. They issued "The Digital Textbook Playbook" guide which went far beyond textbooks and included information about determining broadband infrastructure for schools and classrooms, leveraging home and community broadband to extend the digital learning environment and understanding necessary device considerations along with some "lessons learned" from school districts that had engaged in successful transitions to digital learning. The 2012 playbook can be downloaded and it's interesting to see what has changed in the 8 years since it was written. Those changes would include a new administration with different objectives from the Obama era.
The playbook defines a "true digital textbook" as "an interactive set of learning content and tools accessed via a laptop, tablet, or other advanced device." Being that this effort was on K-12, the perspectives of key users was students, teachers, and parents.

Steven Spielberg, Dinosaurs, Oscars and Degrees, Netflix and Coursera
Posted by Kenneth Ronkowitz on Tuesday, March 12. 2019
Filmmaker Steven Spielberg has been having an argument with Netflix. His tenure as Governor of the Academy that oversees the Oscars ends this summer, but his very public feelings about Netflix has become an issue in the motion picture industry.
Netflix is just the biggest name in streaming services and Spielberg isn't happy with this disruptor of his industry. He is all for protecting the traditional film studio pipeline and the Oscars that prioritize theaters over living rooms. He would like to see movies made for streaming services be excluded from the major categories at next year's Oscars. He thinks that Netflix movies (and really ones from Amazon and other companies) should compete for Emmys, not Oscars.
"Once you commit to a television format, you're a TV movie," he told British ITV News in March, 2018. "I don't believe films that are just given token qualifications in a couple of theaters for less than a week should qualify for the Academy Award nomination."
Roma, the film that was up for Best Picture, was the focus of a lot of this debate, was at the center of his argument this spring. The film lost in that category to Green Book, but it won Best Foreign Film, and Alfonso Cuaron won Best Director, so it certainly had a big impact this year.
Now what does this have to do with education and this blog? I do tend to view a lot of things through an education lens (pun intended). It is how I have lived my adult life.
I love movies. I got my MA in communications with a concentration of film and video back in the late 1970s when video was already taking the place of film. In my earliest teaching days, I taught students to cut film. It was a literal cut on a piece of film stock. At one time we even cut videotape that came on reels. By the 1980s, we were editing video by copying and pasting it to other videotape and the reels became VHS tapes. Analog became digital and though my students still did some animation frame by frame using Super 8 film cameras, we knew that would end soon.
I would compare Spielberg's argument with the arguments about disruptors that we have in education.
The Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is a good example. Going back to 2012 (the supposed "Year of the MOOC"), there were many similar arguments being heard. MOOCs will destroy traditional universities and degrees. Online learning will become free. The quality of MOOCs is inferior to credit-based online courses from universities.
Universities were movie theaters. Roma was a MOOC. Coursera was Netflix.
In the 7 short years since the MOOC got its big push, they have changed, been adopted by traditional universities and adapted to their own purposes. They didn't destroy traditional colleges or college course or degrees. They did disrupt all of those things. All of those things have changed in some ways, and they will continue to change as the MOOC and its evolved offspring appear.
Is Steven Spielberg a dinosaur?
He has been at the technology edge for all of his career. Yes, he prefers to shoot on 35 mm film if he can, but when he needs the video technology, such as in his Ready Player One, he goes that route.
As an Academy Governor, he is in a place where he feels the responsibility to protect the movie business, which he clearly loves. That includes the traditional distribution vector of movie theaters. Theaters have been threatened since the arrival of television in a big way back in the 1950s. So their dominance for distribution has been threatened for more than 60 years. But theaters still exist, though in reduced numbers.
Streaming services like Netflix are a big competitor, but so are Disney and other traditional studios that want a piece of that streaming money and may care less for their theater share of profit which has been shrinking over the past few decades.
Spielberg is a dinosaur in that he wants the old system to continue. he prefers the status quo. If he was a professor or college administrator, he probably would have opposed MOOCs.
Probably, as with the MOOC, both theaters and streaming films will continue to exist. Each will influence the other, but streaming and MOOCs will not disappear.
It is understandable that Netflix wanted Roma to be considered for an Oscar, so it put it in theaters for a limited release to qualify. there are some people who are willing to pay for a film in a theater on that big screen with an audience, even though it will appear on their television set in their living room if they wait a few weeks. But Netflix makes its money from those streaming subscriptions.
Actually, it is kind of a myth that Netflix "produced" Roma." Netflix had nothing to do with "making" or even funding "Roma." That is actually the case for many of the shows and movies labeled as Netflix Originals. They buy films just like the other traditional studios. Participant Media financed Roma. It was shot by Cuarón's production company. Any of the traditional studios could have acquired Roma and put it in theaters. A black-and-white film in Spanish is not as appealing to many studios, even if the director has a good track record.
If I use Coursera, the world's largest massive open online course (MOOCs in some ways) with a learner population of nearly 40 million, as my educational Netflix, I would point out that their courses are really courses made by traditional universities. The universities are the film studios. Coursera is their distributor.
If Spielberg fights to keep things "as is" then he is a dinosaur. There are still education Spielbergs who don't want online courses at all. MOOCs are certainly something they don't want to be considered for credit toward a degree. Credits and degrees are the Oscars of higher education.
It is still evolution more than it is revolution.

Normandy: a hotspot for recycling PET plastics in Europe and around the world
The American firm Eastman is investing in Normandy to create the world's largest facility for the recycling of PET plastics.
Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine in Normandy will become one of the nerve centers of the circular economy in Europe by 2025. The American business Eastman, a global leader in chemical recycling, has chosen the towns of Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine and Saint-Jean-de-Folleville to set up the world's largest molecular plastics recycling facility. The group, which generated €10.5 billion in revenues in 2021, will invest €850 million in this project. It will have the capacity to process 160,000 tonnes of plastic waste per year from all over Europe.
Benefiting from high-performance maritime and rail infrastructure as well as strong political will from local communities, Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine already hosts multiple investment projects in the field of the circular economy. At the beginning of 2022, the Canadian group Loop Industries, in collaboration with Suez, announced during the "Choose France" summit, an investment project worth €250 million. It will process 70,000 tonnes of waste by 2023. ExxonMobil, together with the UK group Plastic Energy, will also invest in Port-Jérôme-sur-Seine in a facility that can recycle up to 33,000 tonnes of plastic per year.
Other large-scale projects are under way. In Grandpuits (Normandy), Total Energies, along with Plastic Energy, will convert a refinery into a recycling center. The green startup Carbios is also boosting French research with its sites in the Grand Est region and near Clermont-Ferrand (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region).
France's ambitious aim, within the framework of the "anti-waste and circular economy" laws of 2020 and the "climate and resilience" measures of 2021, is to see 100% of plastics being recycled by 2025. To achieve this objective, it is investing €300 million in recycling under the "France 2030" plan. For Eastman in particular, the Normandy region has supported the project to the tune of €35 million. These commitments align with European directives, including the ban on single-use plastics and the "European Green Deal." On March 2, 2022, in Nairobi, Kenya, the United Nations began negotiations and set the goal of a "legally binding" global treaty on plastic waste by 2024.
Unlike traditional recycling, which involves sorting, cleaning and fusing plastic, Eastman uses chemical processes. They enable multi-layered plastics, such as milk cartons, plastic films, polyester, etc., that cannot be recycled otherwise, to be recycled. Chemical methods have the advantage of being able to make plastics infinitely recyclable, while the quality of traditional recycled plastic gradually declines. Eastman uses a solvent (methanol), while Carbios has developed an enzyme that consumes less energy. Eastman relies on biomass and low-carbon energies, particularly nuclear energy, for its factories and to guarantee its carbon neutrality. In the United States, where solvent recycling is common, NGOs have however warned against the risk of these extremely polluting solvents being released into ecosystems.

The Rib Man - Comidas Magazine - Because we love comidas.
In just a few years, The Rib Man has become an institution on the London street food scene.
His meaty wares, either ribs by themselves, in wraps or huge white rolls, have become the stuff the of legends. As has his variety of original homemade hot sauces: Holy F**k, Christ on a Bike and Holy Mother of God (known collectively as the Holy Trinity of sauces) can now be found in some of London's hippest restaurants and pop ups, and is shipped to devout fans all over the UK and the world.
My favourite is the original, Holy F**k sauce: the purity of the chilli taste is immense, initially hitting you with the heat and leaving you tangy glow that glides around your mouth. It is utterly addictive.
As his thousands of Twitter followers will attest, the quality (and indeed quantity) of the ribs over the years hasn't diminished with the huge popularity he has gained, and neither has the genuine enthusiasm for what he does.
For me The Rib Man is a perfect representation of what street food in London has done to the culinary scene: no more bland, boring, chain restaurants or fast food options.
Just simple, fresh and incredibly delicious food, from someone who is passionate about their product.
You can find The Rib Man slow cooking at street food events up and down the UK, and almost every Sunday, where it all started, in Brick Lane, East London.
