  2. From the discussion Caught a bug?

    Wed, 07 May 2008 18:33:37 -0000

    http://learnhub.com/test/take/182-vocabulary-building-exercises

    If 5 people have taken the test, and I got a score of 9/10, how can the average be 10/10? Or did I misread the info?

      Perhaps the other 4 got 10/10. I believe the system rounds the number, so if the average score is 9.7 it will round it to 10, if its 9.3, it will round it to 9.

  3. From the discussion Favorite Everyday Wines....

    Wed, 07 May 2008 01:22:23 -0000

    This thread cracks me up – an American poster posts a question and a bunch of Canucks respond.

    When I go into my grocery store – Kroger – I have succombed to American Chardonnays; my wife thinks that they are too bitter, so I dive into the Riesling aisle.

  4. From the lesson "The" and "A/an"

    Tue, 06 May 2008 19:53:58 -0000

    Related to this issue is what to use and how to pronounce "a"or “an” when it precedes a word stating with an “h”. Although you could say “It is a historical event.”, the sentence rolls off the tongue easier if you say “It was an istorical event.” by keeping the “h” silent.

  5. From the lesson When your calculator runs out of power

    Tue, 06 May 2008 19:01:29 -0000

    This is true.

    Yesterday I had to make a choice between buying 8 yogurt containers for $5.00 or using a coupon that gave me $.40 off for 6 yogurt containers. They were $.89 each. I didn’t have a pen nor paper and after some metail arithmetic, I concluded that one deal was as good as the other.

    On the weekend I asked my 7 year old neice what 2 × 19 was. She knew what 2 × 20 was. All I had to do was point out that she had one 2 too many and so she had to back off a 2 from 40.

  6. From the lesson 5 Commonly Mistaken "A" words

    Tue, 06 May 2008 18:48:15 -0000

    “You should have excepted your offer.” I had to go to my Oxford dictionary for this one. I have never seen nor used “except” as a verb, but you can.

  8. From the video How to say my last name

    I could have told you that – years and years of watching European Football.

    Next trivia question – where are his ancestors from? Ukraine? Poland? Austria? Russia?

  10. From the discussion I still use Notepad to write HTML

    Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:45:45 -0000

    One of my favorite editors for html is an executable that comes with Excel & Office. To use it, open Excel, go to Tools, Macro, Microsoft Script Editor.

    Alternatively, you’ll find it in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11 and the file name is called mse7.exe. The path and exect file name may depend on what version of Office you have. Try it out!

  11. From the lesson How to: Courses

    Thu, 27 Mar 2008 14:49:40 -0000

    Hey Adam, under the “How do I add content?” section you might want to make it clear that members first have to create lessons in the Lessons page before the lessons show up under Curriculum. It took me about 20 minutes to figure that out.

  12. From the video Pierre Trudeau - "Just Watch me"

    Thu, 27 Mar 2008 02:00:37 -0000

    I was a high school tudent in Ottawa, living near Rockliffe Park when this happened. I saw the soldiers on guard outside of John Diefenbaker’s house.

    I remember reading in The Ottawa Journal about mail boxes being blown up. I remember Pierre Laporte, James Snow. Je me souviens.

  13. From the discussion Post type is not included in the list

    Mon, 17 Mar 2008 01:21:31 -0000

    One thing I found out at LearnHub is that with IE7 you cannot reply in a discussion. You can with Opera though.

    However, with Opera, if you are creating a long Lesson, the window jumps around a lot. So I switched back to IE7 to create the Lesson.

      IE is the only browser that doesn’t handle submit button values properly. Sigh

      We’ve fixed this in a few other areas, but debates was missed. It’ll be fixed early this week.

  14. From the discussion A wine's quality cannot be judged by its price

    Sun, 16 Mar 2008 14:38:09 -0000

    When I lived in Canada, I belonged to a winemaking club, The Sunrise Vintners. We would have blind tastings with homemade and sometimes with commercial wines in the mix too. Once, some of us, including myself, rated as poor a rather expensive French wine. One of our members proposed that we had “cellar” wine tasebuds and had lost the ability to assess and detect good commercial wines.

  15. From the discussion Ontario wines aren't good

    Sat, 15 Mar 2008 21:31:07 -0000

    hello everyone. Hi. This is done from Opera. 10 minutes – better type fast.

    I recall from 12 years ago that certain wineries such as Chateau des Charmes were making very good Chardonnays. Surley now, there must be more wineries producing good wines.

    Only in this thread. I tried to reply to the “Ontario wines aren’t good” thread and I still get the same message. Whether I click on Disagree or Agree.

      I had the same problem earlier today. It’s a problem local to the IE browser, but the dev team knows about it and is working on it .
