Research Specialist Interview (Positive Experience; Average Interview)
I applied through college or university - interviewed at North Dakota State University in February 2012.
Interview Details – I was a grad student at the time and was the only person that applied to this position. The search committee was my doctoral committee plus a couple of colleagues. Although I knew I would get the job, they still conducted a very formal interview. Everyone was very professional but personal. I really appreciated this. I have been on 2 search committees for faculty positions and can say this is the norm in my department. I really like the way we conduct interviews here.
Interview Question – This was my first interview and I didn't know what to expect. There were not off-the-wall type of questions, but I remember being challenged. The most annoying question for me is always where do you see yourself in 10 years.... Answer Question

Learn how best to lay out and prepare for a tile floor installation.
More in Floors
These may be self-adhesive or laid with or without adhesive.
Carpet Tile (Image 1)
Usually laid dry (i.e., without any adhesive).
Vinyl Tile (Image 2)
May be self-adhesive or may need adhesive.
Cork Tile (Image 3)
May be ready-sealed or need sealing once laid.
These are available in various materials and sizes.
Porcelain (Image 1)
Laying porcelain tiles normally requires special adhesive or additives to standard adhesive.
Ceramic (Image 2)
A wide range of colors and designs is available, some mimicking natural tiles such as limestone.
Slate (Image 3)
A natural material. Apply sealant to the top surface before laying slate. This prevents excess adhesive from soaking into the tile, making it easier to remove later.
Quarry (Image 4)
A natural material. Seal top surface before use.
Marble (Image 5)
Another type of natural tile.
These are usually patterned and are another form of hard tiles.
Parquet Tile (Image 1)
Gives appearance of traditional parquet design. Installed with adhesive. May be finished, or may need sanding and sealing after application.
Parquet Tile (Tongue-and-Groove) (Image 2)
Tongue-and-groove mechanism locks tile in place. It is laid with adhesive.

This hotel was fantastic. The location is great, it's literally near everything you need and is walking distance to the shopping centre's, zoo & the beach. Staff were super friendly and made me feel really welcome. Would definitely recommend anyone to stay here.
The location is excellent - couple of minutes away from the beach, staff is very friendly and helpful
The room was a bit small
We were only there overnight as we transmitted through Honolulu but what we experienced was fine. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, which was all we were interested in really as we were tired after a long flight.
The bathroom was quite small.
Location Beach Coffee and Tea welcome Little treats like a juicy apple and cold drink Close to busses and DFO Galleria Great directions from desk staff
View was ordinary but who needs a view from the hotel Pool was very small and hard to get to up the stairs by the air conditioning unit Kept knocking into the wooden bed base
Clean, tidy and much nicer than others I've stayed at. A nice room an little hotel. Great staff and central location.
Tiling in bathroom isn't that nice and lets down the rest of the experience.
the location is excellent, very close to the beach, restaurants and shops. very friendly staff blackboard with daily updated news, interesting things, local food, hawaian words...
Staff friendly
Balcony is a joke and the city view also....
Quiet room on upper floor, nice view on ocean side. Try 13th or 14th floor Tasty, refreshing cold and hot beverages in the lobby. Helpful Staff at front desk. Off the main Waikiki crowded strip Fridge and microwave in room
WiFi a little slow in room No onsite restaurant (under construction during our stay) plenty of restaurants within one block though, so not a big deal. Pool area needs a little decor(Plants, little tables)
The hotel is clean and modern, our king-sized bed was extremely comfortable. Good location, while not on Waikiki beach, it's only a 5 min walk away. It's also very close to the action (restaurants, bars, other hotels, shopping.) After reading other reviews about construction going on nearby, we requested a room on a higher floor to be away from the noise, and I'm happy to say that they honoured our request.
The amenities weren't that great - the restaurant/bar attached to the hotel is under construction, and the pool on the roof is small. Even though there was complimentary iced tea and flavoured water in the lobby every day, it would have been nice if they offered other drinks to make up for the fact that the hotel bar is being renovated. Also, our cleaning person left the door to our room open one day, luckily there was a safe in the room where we kept our valuables. When I told the people at reception, they were surprised and expressed serious concern, but they didn't do much to compensate for this huge lapse.
Little details about the hotel in the room, main lobby etc. Location was perfect...just off the main Waikiki strip so that you're away from the noise but still seconds away from the action Customer service was excellent..obviously a great culture developed by the hotel
Nothing...both of us loved it
- Exelent location in middle of Waikiki. - - Short distance to beach, only 5 min slow walking. - Friendly staff - Complimentary drinks in lobby - Rooms have enough space We didn't hear any extra noises from the street. This hotel is middle of Waikiki so there can be some traffic noise but this is normal in any place. Rooms were clean and big. I would stay here again.
Value for money this hotel has the basics to make a short stay enjoyable. The bathroom was nice and big and the hotel staff were always pleasant and helpful. The hotel is not too close and not too far from the hustle and bustle of the Waikiki strip which meant that you could enjoy both water and shopping without having too walk to far but not needing to share it with all the tourists!
My room didn't have a fridge and being a solo traveller I didn't want to spend every night eating out or having to buy and buy and buy. Also the restaurant is undergoing a renovation which would have been nice to have known before booking. For me personally I love nothing more than being able to eat or have the option to eat at my hotel or ordering room service after a big day out in the sun but unfortunately it was always a walk to the abc stores or trying to find somewhere to eat, don't get me wrong there's plenty of places around, is just not for the lazy ;)
Staff, Cleanliness of Hotel Lobby & Rooms, Central to all of Waikiki
Nothing bad to say. If I didnt run out of money from shopping so much I would have luved to have stayed longer
The hotel has been refurbished to a very high standard. The staff were extremely helpful and courteous. The beds are large and comfortable - even the sofa bed!
There is nothing not to like about this hotel.
Location is perfect.... But too expensive for the quality of hotel .... Has no bar no breakfast .... Parking is 28$ a day ..... Rooms are good size and pretty clean and comfy but .... Nothing else .... If you don't have better options ..... I would recommend it ....
The Location of the Hotel is Excellent everything is nearby
The Hotel smelled a little dirty in the hallways it smelled like if the carpet had not been cleaned for a long time cleaningness of room was good but not hallways
It is very considerate. It provides tea, fruit and even microwave oven. The room is clean.
The room is very small and a little far from the beach
location and staff were excellent. was very modern (for waikiki) and our room was big enough for 2 of us - i dont think we needed any more room. good value and great free wifi too
bit of a dodgy view next door (not their fault) small lanai, would have been nice to have a bigger outdoor area for wine time!
The location was bang in the middle of Waikiki, the touristic center of Honolulu. The WiFi was assigned for every room, so it worked with no hassle . The staff were friendly and helpful. The price, in compare with the offered services and location and quality was reasonable, comparing with the similar hotels in the area.
Basically nothing to complain about!
- Wifi was GREAT! Every room had its own wifi network with own password. It was for free, worked all the time and was fast. - Very good service, we could always get towels towards the beach; they arranged the taxi for us to the airport and it was no problem to leave the luggage stored and refresh ourselves at the end of the day when we had een late flight. Also good service that you can check in and print your boardingpasses for flying for free in de lobby.
The mattress was soo soft that I had back and neck problems the whole holiday long. Even though we were on a high floor, and the doors from the balcony were closed, you could still here so much noise from the streets! It was as if the windows were wide open, when someone was talking outside you could here everything (and there was alot more noise than just talking). So I would suggest some better isolation of the windows.
Some staff are not friendly
All was awesome
AMAZING! This hotel really made Hawaii possible for us this year. Great hotel- FANTASTIC location! Right in the heart of the action at Waikiki Beach. Cannot wait to come back to this amazing hotel! Thank you again Shoreline Waikiki!
Perfect position. Close to everything....shops, restaurants, beach etc. Squeaky clean. Good security. Excellent value for money.
could do with extra space/rack for second suitcase, otherwise perfect .
The staff are really nice, very friendly and helpful. The location was very central to everything.
Use to having coffee and tea provided for duration of stay at no extra cost, at shoreline we were only provided with 2 of each and the had to pay for any additional even though we were there for 4 nights, they provided these facilities downstairs in foyer, but it isn't the same as having in your room like majority of hotels,,,, nothing nicer than being able to wake and make your coffee in your room without the additional cost of $2.00 each cup, we could have gone to most local cafés and paid $2.00 and got never ending cups of coffee. No food facilities on premises other than vending machines.

Movie Info
At the time of the 1994 Rwandan genocide, the Mufti of Rwanda, the most respected Muslim leader in the country, issued a fatwa forbidding Muslims from participating in the killing of the Tutsi. As the country became a slaughterhouse, mosques became places of refuge where Muslims and Christians, Hutus and Tutsis came together to protect each other. KINYARWANDA is based on true accounts from survivors who took refuge at the Grand Mosque of Kigali and the madrassa of Nyanza. It recounts how the

While hardly an all-inclusive look at this complex conflict, paints a heartfelt, fairly restrained picture of a nation under siege.
The end result is a film that's un- deniably moving in its depiction of life under siege, in which horrific violence coexists with everyday emotions.
Kinyarwanda offers glimpses into the lives of Rwandans, young and old, religious and radicalized, in the wake of nightmarish carnage.
Each vignette adds to the mosaic. Characters from one turn up in another. Gradually a powerful outcome is arrived at.
Cast with both professional and novice actors (which results in uneven performances), the beautifully shot film is filled with exquisite moments...
fitting tribute and memorial to the million Rwandan souls who lost their lives
As the varied characters organically intersect and intertwine, both the diversity of perspectives and shared oneness of this horrible experience are clearly seen and intimately felt.
All respect to Alrick Brown for giving audiences a fresh take on the Rwandan genocide. In a movie that was shot in 16 days, viewers will be educated and moved.
An inspirational, modern morality play apt to restore your faith in humanity.
Audience Reviews for Kinyarwanda
However, I really can't like a movie like this, either, that does not credibly reflect the complicated reality on the ground, instead just wishing that there will be a 'unified peace,' as one character puts it, and it will magically happen. And while I do want to believe in the best of humanity, it is hard to believe in it happening so often during one of the planet's worst moments. Just as there are brutal killings depicted here, even more often are there warm scenes of people doing the right thing, including one huge bluff to save a group of people about to be killed.
And then there is the decision to go for a complicated structure of interrelated stories which is hard enough to pull off under optimal circumstances which this is not, with the best sequence being the Reeducation Camp. The best option would have been to tell a story of the Rwandan genocide through the point of view of one character, like say Jeanne(Hadidja Zaninka), whose parents are killed.

Not sure of others, but on the iPad you can download Apps for BBC iPlayer, ITV and 4oD. Unless the tablet has a SIM card and you sign up for roving, you need to be in a wi fi hotspot to view programmes.I think other tablets have a similar facility, but look up the tech spec of the one you want. You can buy adapter leads (HDMI) to connect to a HDMI endowed TV to view in full screen.

I have the app 'TV Catchup' from Google Play on my N7.
There are a load of stations you can watch more or less live, but don't think you can go back in time like iplayer..
iPlayer obviously needs wifi and the dearer N7s have 3G. I can watch it over my home wifi.
With TV Catchup I found I had to switch off my adblocker for it to work.

El Cholo Review
The first of what's now a small chain, this landmark south of Hollywood has been packing them in since the 1920s. A hand-painted adobe ceiling and an outdoor patio with a fountain create a partylike atmosphere, which the bar's legendary margaritas can only enhance. The fare includes all kinds of Cal–Mex standards, including tacos, chicken enchiladas, carnitas (shredded fried pork), and—from July to October—their famous green-corn tamales.

A new build chronicle of Google's arriving vital Android recover has been spotted.
Ever given it was unearthed, a subsequent chronicle of Android, called Android Lemon Meringue Pie or, Android LMP (Android 5.0), there has been a lot of fad among Android fans.
Now, a new chronicle of Android build has been speckled using on what is called by a developers as new Nexus 7. Developers mostly impute to a new Nexus 7 as a NexusV2 or, Nexus 7 2013 done by Asus.
The build chronicle has been identified as LRW50D, held in a Chromium emanate tracker, reports Myce.
The LRW50D build represents a build code: The initial minute "L" is a name of a recover family, that is Lemon Meringue Pie. The second minute is a bend formula that allows Google to brand a sold formula bend a build was done from.
The subsequent minute and a two-digit number, W50, are a date code. The minute W depends as quarters, while "A" stands for Q1 2009. The W is for Q3 2014. The dual digits (50) imply days within a quarter, that means a W50 is 19 August, 2014.
The final minute of a build, "D", identifies as particular chronicle associated to a same date code. So D is a fourth chronicle of that day.
However, a date codes, according to Google, are not a accurate date on that a build was done and it is utterly common that teenager variations are combined to an existent build afterwards reuse a same date formula as a existent build.

I just wanna bring this up. The Barian's have a shit ton of variety in their designs, but that kinda makes me wonder what another Astral being would look like
I mean the closest we've got is Black Mist
and seeing as he's a memory of Astral's, it's only natural he'd look like him.
It just makes you think a little bit
It does! I'm having a ridiculously hard time imagining any changes to Astral, though. I guess I'm more attached to him...

Hi there! :)
My name's Tracey Faye and I have been asked by Nicky's Mum to start a project for Nicky's birthday next month. I am going to make a Birthday Book for Nicky and this will be given to him by his Mum nearer the time of his birthday. I was wondering if you would be interested in taking part? :)

We're keeping it hush from Nicky so PLEASE DO NOT tweet him telling him about this project! It's top secret (even though it's on Twitter…) but I want to do this for him because his fans mean everything to him and we all want the best for him. :)
Feel free to tweet me @lalatraceyfaye or @thenicmcproject or add me on Facebook - Tracey Faye McIntyre :)

Meet Aggieland's "Angel," the rare white hummingbird whose story was chronicled earlier this week, as captured by Waco photographer Dr. Spencer Moore this week at the Country Star Bed and Breakfast. Dr. Moore is one of several Brazos Valley area photographers who have visited the Country Star this week for the opportunity to see this marvelous wonder of nature who has appeared each day since Saturday, August 16. See more photos of Angel and other subjects documented by Dr. Moore at his website, Dr. Spencer Moore Photography.
The Beauty of Rare Creatures and Social Networking
Science truly is all around us. The secret lies in being a Noticer — a term I've referenced before in this blog. And it's collaborative by nature, too. (By the way, there's an intended pun there. Read on to see. Oops, I did it again — ha!)
OK, enough with the cheesy humor and on with the real story. This past Saturday, Country Star Bed and Breakfast owners Cher and Doug McHan were shocked by an amazing sight at one of their property's bird feeders — a white hummingbird. Albinism, a genetic condition that results in a lack of pigmentation in the skin, hair, scales or feathers of an animal, has been documented in many different species throughout the animal kingdom. When it comes to hummingbirds, most people have seen the more common jeweled-green and ruby-throated varieties, but this guy (or gal) — who's more specifically a leucistic hummingbird, versus the extremely rare albino version characterized by pink eyes and feet — is novel by any standard, especially here in Aggieland.
Armed with her trusty sidekick — the Canon Rebel T4i camera she regularly uses to document the establishment's most loyal visitors (deer) and other happenings for the B&B's Facebook page and website — Cher snapped a few quick shots and posted them on social media. She also reported it to a white hummingbird banding website she found.
In short order, Cher's Facebook friend David Harkins (a 1984 Texas A&M wildlife and fisheries sciences graduate) advised her to alert iNaturalist.org and the Birds of Texas Facebook group. He also put her in touch with his own friend, photographer Bill Morris, who visited the Country Star Monday to document the exceptional find. Meanwhile, Cher's cousin, Doreen White, gave it a name: Angel.
Say what you will about social media's intrusion into society, but so often it uses its powers for good. In this case, it helped put the exclamation point on that extraordinary in the everyday we talk about in our boilerplate. Good bull, er, hummingbird!

Science: There's a Magic to It
"It's magic!"
It's hard to hear yourself think, much less anything else, in a classroom full of sixth-graders, but that excited shriek caught my attention.
I was taking photographs of a Physics Show demonstration for the Youth Adventure Program (YAP) in the Mitchell Physics Building last month. The kids were in awe over a tiny cube-shaped magnet that was floating in midair around a circular disc. And indeed, it gave the appearance of something on the supernormal side of things.
"It's not magic – it's physics," noted Dr. Tatiana Erukhimova, senior lecturer and champion of the Department of Physics and Astronomy's premier outreach extravaganza.
Technically, that's true. We actually were witnessing the principles of superconducting levitation at work. Superconductors expel magnetic fields, so when the disc is cooled to its point of superconductivity (with the help of some liquid nitrogen), the repulsion is so strong that the magnet appears to be suspended in air.
Science may be the fabric of what we know as "magic," but it takes a lot of creativity (and perhaps some charisma, too) to capture an audience's imagination using only everyday objects, especially when that audience is hyperactive pre-teens. People like Tatiana, and also Dr. James Pennington who spearheads the Department of Chemistry's Chemistry Roadshow, are masters of this.
To me, there's a little bit of magic in that.
On the Other Hand
THIS JUST IN: Scientists are normal! For starters, just like you and me, they take the occasional vacation. That being said, I don't know many whose curiosity ever takes the occasional break.
As proof, I respectfully submit Exhibit A — a Facebook posting from Texas A&M University astronomer Nick Suntzeff, documenting a curious find from his travels in Croatia this month. I'll let you be the judge, from the history to the actions and their motivations, but for me, there's no debating that Nick has a wonderful way with words!
* ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
"I was intrigued with the city seal of Trogir in Croatia. What's that comet all about? Well, there was a St. John buried in the city. When the Venetians set out in 1170 or so to fight the Byzantium enemies, the stopped in Trogir and sacked it. They stole all the relics of the saint, except they could not carry the whole damn sarcophagus of St. John — so they cut his hand off because it had the bishop's ring. The hand was carried back to Venice. But the fleet suffered some divine intervention of a storm or plague or fleas. Anyway, Trogir recouped and demanded their stuff back, which the Venetians gave, except for the hand, which they felt they could care for better. On the eve of the feast of St. John (according to the article by A. Marinkovic), 'the hand flew back to Trogir followed by a comet and helped by angels, and was found in the cathedral of Trogir, laid on the top of the tomb in clean linen.'
"They don't make miracles these days like they used to. A dead hand with a ring followed by a comet and a squad of angels? Now, that I would notice as an astronomer. Even using IDL [Interactive Data Language]."
Earth to Teachers
As one of the rotating images within its website header teases, what has 72 feet, covers 3,000 miles in 16 days, can earn 3 graduate hours of credit, and is more fun than summer vacation when you were a kid?
The answer is G-Camp, an outreach program for teachers offered through the Department of Geology and Geophysics in the College of Geosciences at Texas A&M University. As the ultimate in immersive summer extravaganzas, the two-week camp sets off for a variety of sites across Texas, New Mexico and Colorado, teaching the principles of geology in the field by allowing participants to explore and experience first-hand the processes and environments of planet Earth from past to present.
Texas A&M Center for Mathematics and Science Education research scientist Dr. Carolyn Schroeder serves as one of G-Camp's instructors. Prior to coming to Texas A&M, she taught earth science in Texas public schools for 30 years, earning Texas Earth Science Teacher of the Year honors in 1986. This past year, she returned to the classroom, teaching introductory geology courses at Texas A&M in addition to her duties with CMSE, which include serving as director of the Texas A&M-College Station Regional Collaborative for Science.
"Once you have taken a field trip with a geologist, you are hooked for life," Carolyn says. "That's what happened to me on my first one with Dr. Mel Schroeder back in 1974, and I continue to love learning about geology and sharing that love with others, both through the classes and workshops that I teach and by informal means as well."

Another One Bites the Dust
News this past March out of Harvard University's Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) Group detailing discovery of the possible evidence for inflation in the early universe is taking a universal beating as of late for failing to properly account for dust, perhaps in the group's haste to leave its competition in it.
Their findings using the South Pole-based BICEP2 telescope hinge on the detection of gravitational waves, which cosmologists have long predicted would produce a specific type of polarization. They were correct in more ways than one.
I remember seeing the media advisory on the American Astronomical Society (AAS) listserv announcing the Monday morning press conference at Harvard's Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics — an unusual occurrence in my admittedly relatively young experience in science media circles, outside of announcing a Nobel Prize. Given that Harvard is a fellow partner in the Giant Magellan Telescope, I emailed Texas A&M astronomer Nick Suntzeff in hopes that he would know what could justify such a media frenzy.
He did. And per his usual, he had a strong, succinct opinion on both the breakthrough and the group's manner of conveying it to the world: "All this drama — science did not used to be like this."
Months before the latest round of back-pedaling in the media, Houston Chronicle science writer Eric Berger had been among those sounding the alarm regarding the damage done to science's credibility and public image. I emailed Nick then for his counsel, just as I did when I saw Dennis Overbye's New York Times feature and then another in Nature on back-to-back days earlier this month. Nick didn't mince words. Nor should he, in my opinion. Then again, we're both fans of implied duty and inherent responsibility.
More importantly, he offered some great comparative insight on how he and the High-Z Supernova Search Team handled their own early stage Nobel Prize-winning research that ended up proving the universe's expansion is actually accelerating, thanks to a mysterious substance they co-discovered: dark energy.
"When we discovered dark energy, all we did was to find that the distant supernovae were too faint in comparison to what was expected," Nick wrote. "We immediately worried that there was some sort of dust in the universe we did not know about that could cause this. We gave a simple argument as to why we felt this dust could not be causing the effect. Dust makes stuff look red — look at something through a forest fire, and it appears red. Same in the universe. We did not see this reddening.
"Also, if there was dust in the universe that we did not know about, more distant stuff should appear fainter because the light has to travel through more dust. This latter effect was difficult to measure, but we did show it was unlikely. All this was in our papers. What we did not do was to say that we have considered dust as causing the faintness of distant supernovae and then not tell the reader why we concluded this. That is what the BICEP2 paper did, and it confused us all as to why they did this."
If astrophysicists the likes of Nick Suntzeff are confused, one can imagine where this leaves the public, both in terms of understanding this "discovery" and in their general impression of science.
First, do no harm.
* ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
The BICEP2 kerfuffle (have always wanted to use that word!) reminds me of a previous occasion when Nick flexed his writing muscles in the name of responsible science. The result: a memorable 2011 guest post for the Last Word On Nothing blog in which he simultaneously describes and decries how science is done these days.
Reading and Writing
For the first time in I can't remember how long, I managed to read a pleasure book cover to cover on consecutive weekends. The first was a recent gift from a dear friend, made all the more special because she wrote it. The second was one I rediscovered earlier this week in my desk at work, made doubly special not only because it was written by a longtime family friend but also because its inside front cover harbored a hidden PostIt note from my mom, hands down the best writer in the family.
Thanks in large part to Mom's steadfast encouragement of my childhood bookworm tendencies, I'm a firm believer that being an avid reader goes hand in hand with being a good writer. Interestingly enough, the New York Times recently detailed a German study on the science of creativity using writing as the medium. Reactions to the results are mixed, with most agreeing it's an intriguing topic if not a start.
Me, I'm thrilled beyond words creative or otherwise that my oldest son appears to be well on his way to following in his grandmother's dog-eared, ink-stained footsteps. Just this past week, he devoured the 487-page Divergent, plus 72 pages of bonus material.
I'm not sure if his grandmother would be proud, amused or slightly alarmed by last weekend's topic of discussion: the comparative literary merits of Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King, courtesy of Epic Rap Battles of History. (Who says this Internet thing is all bad?!) Although my son is intimately familiar with the works of neither author, he is absolutely curious and eagerly anticipating the big moment when his dad and I pronounce him old enough to read such suspenseful classics without the 100 percent guarantee of nightmares.
All the talk of Poe instantly transported me back to high school and the many great short stories we read as parts of some amazing anthologies that, although assigned reading, imparted what for me were lifelong lessons in the exploration of creative voice and artistic expression. I mean, who could forget The Cask of Amontillado or The Telltale Heart?
But beyond them, there could be no better introduction to the fine art of foreshadowing than The Monkey's Paw or Lamb to the Slaughter. I decided he was old enough for the latter, so I sent him the link.
Now, as for remembering to check his email? That jury's still out.
Core Competency
As I have mentioned in past blog entries, one of the many perks of my job is having experts at my fingertips. With a simple email, phone call or Facebook message, I can get instant feedback concerning the day's top headlines, scientific and beyond.
Take for instance last week's reports celebrating discovery of oceans of water beneath the Earth's surface. I happened to catch a radio snippet recapping the Huffington Post's version of the story as I was heading solo to the grocery store on a rare Friday vacation day. (Yeah, I'm as surprised as you are as to what qualifies as vacation for this full-time working mom of three ages 10 and under. But that's another story with neither experts nor answers!) Intrigued, I first Googled the story to find out where it originated (Northwestern University), then emailed my friend Wolfgang Bangerth, a Texas A&M mathematician and author of a modeling software program, ASPECT, that is designed to develop, among so many other things, clearer pictures of Earth's interior.
Besides being a computational scientist and modeling genius, Wolfgang is no slouch when it comes to geophysics — or any engineering-related branch of science, in my experience. While I knew this would be right up his alley, I didn't realize he was in South Korea at the time teaching a weeklong workshop. Distance certainly didn't affect his ability to advise nor my efforts to produce a press release on the subject with his copious help.
(Here's an example of Wolfgang's ASPECT-driven work — convection in a 3D box. Reminds me of those cool optical illusion-type puzzles you got as a kid or the nifty gel-based paperweights you sometimes see in science-types offices!)
For me, curiosity is right up there with a sense of humor and vocabulary prowess in the way of appealing attributes, but I do so love it when others share my enthusiasm for a spur-of-the-moment idea, PR-related and otherwise. Wolfgang certainly went the extra mile (pun intended) to bring this one to fruition, paying me and other communicators what I consider to be the ultimate compliment during a side discussion concerning my use of the formal "Dr." title with him out of habitual respect:
"It's a title. I got it by doing my job, not by being particularly brilliant. As for respect, you are doing a fantastic job, too, and I do respect that just as much. At a university, we're a team. You can't do your job without us, and we can't do it without people like you. I see no reason why we shouldn't treat each other as equals."
Well said as always, my wise friend. Let the record show (at least in this piece) that I'm recovering nicely.
Thank you, Wolfgang, for the global assist and the team affirmation. Awesome to the core!
Winning Teams
In a higher education news cycle so often dominated by doom and gloom, it's nice when messages cross my inbox that clearly illustrate the fact that lifelong learning is a labor of love of both discipline(s) and students of all ages.
Case in point: Each year, our Educational Outreach and Women's Programs Office hosts about a dozen events designed to increase awareness of and interest in STEM, another major higher education news buzz word. The biggest event, both in terms of sheer number of participants and bragging rights at stake, is the Texas Science Olympiad. Hosted by Texas A&M University for the past 13 years, this rigorous academic contest is part of a broader national competition designed to test students' individual and collective knowledge in areas spanning the STEM gamut. While problem-solving skills are required, so is teamwork — on our end as much as that of the participants.
Yes, it takes a village of volunteers from across this campus and community as well as from industry. Dedicated people who devote their professional and personal talents to scheduling, setting up, staffing, judging and, in some cases, subsidizing the competition's 56 events involving nearly a thousand people between students and their coaches. And yes, said students and coaches, along with their other teachers, administrators and families work tirelessly to prepare, but so do the event volunteers in order to ensure that everything comes off without a hitch and proceeds as required per competition rules and regulations.
In the end, the top teams and individuals in each division advance to the Science Olympiad National Tournament, but I like to think they're all winners, given that each learns something about the representative subjects and themselves in the process. And boy, do they collectively celebrate — participants and volunteers — when one of our state winners takes it all at Nationals, which is just what Beckendorff Junior High did last weekend!
I mentioned an email at the start of this entry, so I'll leave it to Nancy Magnussen, director of the Educational Outreach and Women's Programs Office and of the Texas Science Olympiad, to tell the rest of this story behind the story via her update to event volunteers below. Considering that another of the week's headlines was about leadership being the key difference between success and failure in schools, I'd say the Lone Star State is in pretty good shape with a village the likes of this one.
* ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
Howdy all!
I just returned from the 2014 National Science Olympiad in Orlando, Florida, and I wanted to let you know how proud I am of all of you and your dedication to this program. Your level of commitment and care you displayed in preparing your events definitely was apparent in the rankings of our four Texas teams at the National competition — our students were AMAZING!!
How amazing, you might ask? Well, simply put, they were INCREDIBLE!!!
Our Texas middle school team, Beckendorff Junior High, in a field of 60 teams from across the country, WON!!!!! They are the 2014 National Science Olympiad CHAMPIONS!!! This was no small feat; they beat all the big powerhouse teams that win this competition year after year. The California, Ohio, New York, Michigan teams — all of them!! This is HUGE!!!! Unbelievable! They achieved this by medaling in 11 events, including three 1st place and one 2nd place events!
And the good news doesn't stop there. The other three Texas teams that went to Nationals also did incredibly well:
– Seven Lakes High School finished 7th, medaling in eight events, including two 1st place and two 2nd place events!
— Clements High School finished 14th, medaling in six events. This is their highest placing (last year they won only one medal).
— Riverwood Middle School finished 21st, medaling in five events for their highest placing in history as well.
I have attached the final rankings from the National Science Olympiad so you can see how the teams placed in the individual events. . . . Again, I want to thank each of you for the part you played in preparing these four teams for National competition. We have come such a long way in Texas with this important science education program in such a short time. I truly mean it when I say that you folks are the BEST!!!
With great pride in our Texas Science Olympiad teams (YOU and the kids!),

Tyler Millis, 16, wins the gold medal in the world PowerPoint championship, which was held in California.
Most schools have no way to combine the assessment information from multiple sources in ways that are useful for driving instructional improvement or managing student progress. While this seems to be an easy problem to solve, there appear to be four significant problems.
The audit sheds light on the need for schools to be cautious when purchasing new technology, and diligent when monitoring its usage.
The U.S. Department of Education has launched a $3 million evaluation of Khan Academy in community college math classes.
In an interview with Education Week, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler vows to defend schools' access to a free and open Internet.
A district-developed Web 2.0 tool to help teachers share ideas and resources has not been effectively used by New York City teachers, according to an independent evaluation.
Deadlines are looming for schools that want to take advantage of the $2 billion in corporate donations through President Obama's ConnectED initiative.
The Obama administration will today announce the creation of a "hub" to connect tech companies with schools as part of the "ConnectED" plan, and also launch a new effort to connect more Indian schools with high-speed Internet.
A new special report, Navigating the Ed-Tech Marketplace, looks at the evolution of the multibillion dollar K-12 ed-tech landscape, and the pressures facing school leaders and vendors.

There's stuff I like and crap that I don't… But I've come to the conclusion that people who are "comic book enthusiast" or "hiking and smelling weird plant while reading poetry enthusiast" commit to hobbies much more than they should. I like to keep my options open and not "over-enthuse" about anything.

Families remember loved ones at Angel Tree event
|Photos: Ken Crisafi
Stephanie Karamas, of Akron, was among the participants in this year's event. She is shown at right middle as she hangs an ornament in memory of her brother, Louis Karamas Jr., who was kidnapped, robbed and killed at age 25 in 2004. He was a 1998 graduate of Coventry High School.
Akron Police Chief James Nice was the featured speaker at the event. In addition, members of the Akron PeaceMakers youth group were on hand to hang ornaments for victims whose family members could not attend. Pictured at right bottom, from left, are PeaceMakers Jalynn McCants, 18, of Akron, Maya Fraser, 15, of Akron, and Tailon Burrell, 15, of Coventry.
