175106 (BR Class 175/1) leads train 5Q46 from Landore T.M.D. - Ely Mlf Papworth Sidings for storage. In 2023 all Class 175's were retired by Transport for Wales due to replacement by the Class 197. With these units not being native to London it was very nice seeing these.
The National STEM Guitar Project, in partnership with NSF Advanced Technological Education (ATE) Centers with funding provided through a grant from The National Science Foundation (#1304405), hosts innovative Guitar Building Institutes around the United States. The 5-day institutes, combined with additional instructional activities comprising 80 hours, provide faculty training on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) for middle, high school, and post-secondary faculty. The institutes present and teach participants hands-on, applied learning techniques to help engage students and spark excitement for learning STEM subject matter.
Nationwide, there are increasing concerns from businesses about the supply of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics trained workers. Science and math test scores in the U.S. are among the lowest around the world.
The goal and objective of the STEM Guitar Building Institutes is to showcase a new way to present learning for students with applied methods.
MMM...bring back memories?
I almost finished it when I realized I had to share this moment with you. Take that China!
Day 175
14th April 2011
A Mummy and Chap day, he woke full of life this morning after his mysterious sickness yesterday so we had some nice time this morning playing with jigsaws and his cars whilst we waited in for the plumber to come and fix our shower. We now have a brand spanking new shower! Hooray! As much as I've been enjoying the baths I have missed the shower as we've been without it for a couple of months now!
This afternoon we went to the cinema to see 'Hop'. I have to say it was probably the most excruciating 96 minutes of my life but Chap seemed to enjoy it and was excitedly telling Daddy all about it when he got home from work, so that made it all worth while.
We even managed a short trip to the park this afternoon on his scooter, I took my camera out and had a full hour of panic when it would't work. I was convinced it or my beloved 50mm lens was broken and had to really force myself to not rush home in a panic to work out what was wrong with it! In then end I realised that I'd switched a switch on my fstop ring on the lens and was easily rectified :) *deep breath*
I bought this lovely blossom home from the park and snapped away once I had my camera working again :)
