GLASSBORO The fish were fighting themselves.

On Friday, 23 Clearview Regional High School students sat distracted in Rowan University assistant professor Matthew Bealor's laboratory in Glassboro as participants in the university's eighth annual Science Day. They were prodding tanks of betta fish on the countertops, some rapping their nets against the glass, others pressing their noses to the sides of the tanks.

After lecturing for a few minutes about the aggressive tendencies of male betta fish - which will rip one another to shreds if more than one is kept in the same tank - the professor told the visiting students they were allowed to lower their floating mirrors into the water.

At once, the battles began.

Fins stiffened as the fish took swipes and bites at their reflections, fruitlessly bounding full speed into the glass. All the while, Bealor's students noted each chomp of the teeth and flare of the gills.

"If you attend Rowan University, you'll get to do something even cooler," Bealor shouted as his visitors clamored to get to lunch. "You'll get to put the fish in the tank with a female."

Science Day, which ran from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the university Science Hall, is designed to give students the type of hands-on experience they cannot typically get in a high school classroom. Students from six high schools in South Jersey - Clearview Regional High School, Millville Senior High School, Deptford Township High School, Kingsway High School, Woodbury High School, and Buena Regional High School - attended the event.

The 22 lessons were organized into three one-hour blocks throughout the day. The 121 students were free to choose whichever lectures piqued their interests, from speeches about hydrogen fuel-cell technology to crash courses on software engineering.

Bethlehem, PA (PRWEB) April 04, 2014

Having worked for two decades in New York City, Westchester County and Connecticut as an interior decorator and antiques specialist, Lucia Vanin-Agrusa is out to help todays home buyer in the greater Lehigh Valley, and Bucks County areas to find the home, and neighborhood of their dreams.

While home staging is vitally important to sell a home as quickly and as close to the asking price as possible, on the flip side, are home buyers who engage the services of a home decorator like Vanin Agrusa. By doing so, the home buyer quickly gains knowledge of a homes potential. Or in other words, is the home is a dud, or a diamond in the rough.

Working with a designer or decorator as you look for a home is just as important as it is for a home seller to use a home stager, says Vanin Agrusa, who found her own dream home after viewing more than sixty properties on the market. Engaging the services of a visionary will also be able to identify up and coming neighborhoods.

It absolutely makes sense for a home buyer today to engage a designer or decorator with the knowledge of home renovations, costs, and with a vision of the homes true potential, says Senior Vice President, Cassidon Real Estate Group, Robert Agentis.

Every home buyer should have a wish list, but not many home buyers have the vision or ability to embrace the true potential of a home on the market, adds Agentis. Often, homes from the 1950s and 60s are passed over due merely to cosmetic fixes, i.e.. ripping out old carpets, window treatments, etc.

Even the smallest room such as the powder room can be transformed through finding and adapting colors, walls, and adding pieces from all over the world and from every period, adds Vanin-Agrusa.

For Agrusa, after searching through an inventory of sixty homes in a fifty mile radius, it was love at first sight for her elegant brick Georgian Colonial.

Her first big project, among many, was to create a back yard by thinning a line of trees and building a retaining wall, and designing and constructing a pergola.

Agrusa says homes with less potential were on the market for $100,000 more in the same neighborhood. The savings from the start can be substantial, and a designer can help crunch the numbers for you.

KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) -

Families dealing with Alzheimer's disease confront all kinds of difficult situations, but one couple was stunned when they were asked to leave a Northland restaurant and not come back.

The symptoms of Alzheimer's keeps getting worse for Carolyn George. Her husband Larry takes care of her. He said it's difficult to see the slow decline of the vibrant interior decorator he married nearly 40 years ago.

"It's a slow disease. It's a bad disease. It's changed considerably as far as what we can do, but I try to get her out as much as possible," Larry George said.

But one outing took a turn for the worse when Carolyn George accidentally made a mess in a restaurant bathroom. The couple had eaten at Kate's Kitchen nearly every day for three years, but this last time the owner asked them to never come back.

"I was embarrassed, a little upset, depressed for the rest of the day," Larry George said.

The owner of the restaurant couldn't meet with KCTV5 Friday for an on-camera interview. Instead he sent a statement saying that similar incidents had happened in the past.

He wrote,

"Unfortunately this is not an isolated incident; this has been an ongoing issue. As an owner of a business that deals with the health and safety of all our guests and employees, we have to make decisions that are in the best interest of everyone."

"Our restaurant has been blessed with guests that overcome obstacles with many different types of disabilities. Throughout the day we work side by side with them to assure that during their visit with us they are comfortable and feel at home. We have several guests who are battling the terrible disease of dementia; we know their families, their likes and their dislikes."
