The Ithaca Sciencecenter is an interactive science museum designed to engage people of all ages with hands-on activities and exhibitions. Visitors may learn from the over 250 exhibitions, the seasonal outdoor playground, and other educational programs that the museum offers.

We came into the Sciencecenter one afternoon to work with young children and their parents on activities focused on learning about genetics. We worked with the kids helping them “build-a-bug” using a coin to determine the genetics, and therefore the appearance, of the bug. For some of the older kids who participated, we helped them extract strawberry DNA using household chemicals. It was a pleasure to see the kids interact with real DNA for the first time.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia.

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness.

No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure? On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee.
