Most important sentence: "Before implementing any of the practices proposed below, it is critical to understand *who* you are trying to reach."

Before breakfast: weightlifting, wrestling, steeplechasing. Daily. At 29, with her son strapped to her back, she rode 100 miles, took Gwalior, and died in the saddle in trousers and a turban. The general who killed Rani Lakshmibai filed the verdict.

Talking to Amy Imhoff meant bringing together several of my favourite things: #space, #geography, #StarTrek, #SciComm, feminist media, public engagement, and the kind of wonderfully nerdy conversation where you begin with astronomy and somehow end up at #TaylorSwift.

This lab has been successful in getting press interest, which is helping them with fundraising.
Someone should organize a webinar with whichever lab members are in charge of their #SciComm , social media, and media training because they are getting results.

PaleoCon continues tomorrow at Western Science Center. Our visiting scientists will have “show-and-tell” tables to talk about their work, we’ll have paleoart demos, a reading of paleo-inspired poetry, and presentations by our Teen Ambassadors. If you’re in southern #California stop by! #palaeontology #paleontology #scicomm #museum

Six thousand works. One cloak, no shoes, the floor for a bed. A father lost to the executioner, a mother who hid the boy's clothes to keep him home. Then Origen of Alexandria read one verse in Matthew, and called the physician.

In about a month, I'm going to be running Cell Biology workshops with kids, on the first day, And then just my Science Art for the rest of the weekend, and this year's Maker Faire Bay Area.
The one thing that I'm worried about? How to deal with creeps wearing meta-glasses.
My current 'script', thinking about what to say...
...this is my current idea: "I do not consent. Take those off, or leave".
Any ideas on how to improve this?
Should I bother with signs?

Ten hours of punching produced ten seconds of music. His forearms thickened like a blacksmith's. He wrote a canon in the ratio e to pi, two numbers that by definition never align. Conlon Nancarrow, alone in Mexico City for forty years.

In 1955, Ford wrote to a Pulitzer-winning poet in Brooklyn asking her to name a car. For six weeks she mailed in suggestions: the Intelligent Whale, the Mongoose Civique, the Pastelogram. Her name was Marianne Moore. Ford picked something else.
