UBC Community Affairs Hey everyone, Deadlines for Celebrate Research week event submissions are coming up. Everyone from all faculties are encouraged to participate. http://www.celebrateresearch.ubc.ca/
UBC Community Affairs Continuing in the same vein. Somebody else (not me) did ask a very good question....
UBC Community Affairs I just asked my Quirks question and Susan has just answered it. Something tells me my question won't be one of the winning ones:)

Have you ever wondered how sparrows survive the cold prairie winters, or why we get dark circles under our eyes, or why storms on other planets (like Jupiter) last for hundreds of years while storms on Earth last only weeks?
UBC Community Affairs Details coming soon on the Quirks and Quarks "What's on your mind?" question challenge!
UBC Community Affairs Read a very interesting article on the value of twitter in the classroom (or events??) What do you think?

As the organizer for Celebrate Research Week I sometimes hear that it is difficult to hold successful events. Getting bums in seats, engaging the audience and creating dialogue (buzz) before, during and after an event can be very challenging.

The pancake race is a 4-person team relay race. Competitors run a course of 25 meters attired in a United Way apron over their standard attire. They must run with a frying pan and toss their pancake 3 times; if they drop their pancake, they have to return to the starting line and begin again. Each team member must run ...the course and the team pancake must remain intact.
Teams representing all areas of the UBC community will compete in this highly competitive team relay race being held to raise awareness of the UBC Community United Way Campaign.
Dr. David Farrar, Provost & VP Academic, will be the official starter and will ensure the International Rules of Pancake Racing are strictly observed.
