Knowledge / Re: Some Facts About Antarctica
« on: August 22, 2010, 04:45:15 PM »

Some more :happy: :

Antarctica is the highest, driest, windiest, emptiest, coldest place on earth.

An ice sheet covers all but 2.4 percent of Antarctica's 14 million square kilometers.

At its thickest point the ice sheet is 4,776 meters deep and averages 2, 160 meters thick. This is 90 percent of all the world's ice and it is 70 percent of all the world's fresh water.

There are lots of penguins, whales, seals, krill (the main food for whales), and even fish in Antarctica's waters, but there are no land mammals and, as far as scientists know, no native peoples.

Eskimos and polar bears are found in the ARCTIC, not the Antarctic.

The mean annual temperature at the South Pole is minus 56 degrees F. During the Austral Summer, temperatures at McMurdo base, on the Ross Sea, may get as high as 40 degrees F, while at the South Pole, at the Amundsen- Scott station, temperatures may reach 0 degrees F.

The area below 60 degrees south enjoys one long day and one long night each year. The sun sets in March and rises in October.

The seasons in Antarctica are the opposite of the seasons in the Northern hemisphere--summer is October through February. Winter is March through September.

The continent is roughly 14 million square kilometers (5.4 million square miles). The USA is only 9.36 million square kilometers (3.6 million square miles). The distance from Washington, D.C. to McMurdo station is approximately 14,830 kilometers, or 9,920 miles.

Scientists work on all kinds of unique projects in Antarctica, including penguins, Antarctic cod (they have a special antifreeze agent in their blood!), whales, seals, global warming, climatology, meteorites, glaciology, astronomy, volcanoes, UV radiation, and more. Scientists also study humans in Antarctica, doing research on how the human body adapts to cold and how the human mind and heart react to extreme isolation.

The Antarctic continent wasn't even actually seen until 1820. No man set foot in Antarctica until 1895. The first human landing there is claimed by Henryk Bull, with a party from a whaling ship. They landed at Cape Adare . It was 1935 before the first woman set foot there. Her name was Catherine Mikkelson, and she was the wife of a Norwegian whaling captain. The South Pole was first reached by a Norwegian named Roald Amundsen in 1911, and shortly after by British explorer Robert Scott.

Knowledge / Continuous Partial Attention
« on: August 22, 2010, 03:14:24 PM »

The concept of continuous partial attention was coined by a researcher named Linda Stone, who first began her work on the idea while working for Microsoft. She noted that many people in the technology industry tended to work with a split focus, concentrating on a top level item while also receiving partial input from a variety of other sources. She coined the term “continuous partial attention” to describe this phenomenon, differentiating it from multi-tasking, where people perform several tasks at once.


You can probably think of a few examples of continuous partial attention in your own life. For example, you may have noticed that social events are often interrupted with ringing cell phones, incoming text messages, or email coming in on hand-held devices. Some people find this offensive, being irritated when people interrupt a conversation to answer a cell phone or deal with a text, while others don't seem to mind, especially among the younger age group.

According to Stone, the cause of continuous partial attention is a desire to not miss out on anything. At a party, for example, someone may scan the crowd to ensure that they don't miss someone they want to see, just as an executive at a meeting checks email to see if a better deal is on offer for a product under discussion, or as teenagers text each other in class. Some people feel that continuous partial attention is simply the modernized form of not paying attention at all, with people focusing on too many things at once to do justice to any one thing.

Stone noted that 18-25 year olds seemed to be champions of continuous partial attention, perhaps because they were raised in an environment and culture where it is not only encouraged, but expected. She also provided numerous examples from the corporate world, where some companies now confiscate communication devices at the door in meetings to avoid the problem of partial attention.


Some people view continuous partial attention as positive, arguing that it increases flow and allows people to work more effectively. Others feel that it is less positive, contributing to stressful, high-geared lifestyles which can lead to health problems, as stress has been linked with a number of health issues, from weight gain to dandruff. It may also make workers less efficient, or reduce the quality of someone's work, depending on his or her work pattern. Critics who view continuous partial attention as a problem have also coined another term, “continuous partial friendships,” to describe the sort of relationships that some people have with each other in the age of continuous partial attention.



I ran across this article, earlier. Just wondering , exactly how continuous partial attention is different from multi-tasking?

Any thoughts?
