Playlist: To infinity and beyond (TED is on its annual two-week vacation. During the break, we’re posting playlists from the TEDTalks archive. We’ll be back with new talks Monday!) The wonderful thing about the universe is not just how big it is, but how every time we look into it we find something new and extraordinary. Here are four talks about the vastness of space, and the things that may or may not be found in it. 1) Planetary scientist Carolyn Porco shows images from the Cassini voyage to Saturn, focusing on its largest moon, Titan, and on frozen Enceladus, which seems to shoot jets of ice. 2) Stephen Hawking asks some Big Questions about our universe — How did the universe begin? 3) Filmmaker David Hoffman shares footage from his feature-length documentary Sputnik Mania, which shows how the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik in 1957 led to both the space race and the arms race — and jump-started science and math education around the world.

Five Keys to Successful Social and Emotional Learning Pamela Randall: Social-emotional skills are the essential skills for success in school, work and life. Natalie Walchuk: Social-emotional learning centers their mind and body. It reduces their emotional tension, so they can be open to new content and material. Pamela: If we expect students to be college and career ready, it's important for us to focus on these skills and competencies: Self-Awareness; Self-Management; Social Awareness; Relationship Skills; and Responsible Decision-Making. Natalie: We find that Self-Awareness is one of the hardest things for young people. Pamela: Self-Management is the ability to self-motivate, to have self-control, to regulate one's emotions. Natalie: In a classroom, that may be a breathing exercise, or that might be counting to five, or taking a break. Rose Ludwig: So with students who don't really know how to deal with their anger, or don't really know how to resolve conflict, we're giving them a tool that helps them deal with it in a less stressful way.

25 películas para despertar nuestra conciencia política Solemos asociar la política con dos extremos: un performance público ridículo y de mal gusto o una oficina a puertas cerradas en donde turbios personajes deciden en su beneficio el destino del resto de los mortales. El cine, en algunos curiosos casos, ha sido capaz de interpretar de manera lúcida ambas manifestaciones. De hecho, es quizás el medio artístico que mejor lo ha logrado. El abordaje audiovisual frontal de temas políticos ha florecido especialmente en el género documental. En una famosa escena de la película The Matrix, el protagonista tiene la opción de tomarse una pastilla azul para permanecer en un mundo de felicidad ilusoria o engullirse una pastilla roja y abrir los ojos a la cruda – pero liberadora – realidad. 10 obras maestras para abrir los ojos 1.

100 Illustrated Horror Film Posters: Part 1 For some, Halloween means costume parties and drunken debauchery. That’s never really been my style. Personally, I like to spend my Halloween evenings eating candy and watching scary movies. Yeah, I’m a nerd – I know. This Halloween season has had me reminiscing of the brilliant horror and sci-fi movie posters of years past. Particularly, I am a fan of the illustrated posters that used to be the staple of nearly every science fiction and horror film released. Since there were so many amazing posters to showcase, I have split this post into two parts. Creature from Black Lake The Kindred Fright Night Tarantula!
