We tested out a new (old) manufacturing technology in the Jocelyn H. Lee Innovation Lab - vacuum forming! We fabricated a platen and frame using the laser cutter, then used a toaster oven and a shop-vac to complete the process. Participants were able to vacuum-form a range of shapes out of plastic plates to use as candy molds or decorative artwork! Special thanks to the volunteers who helped make this project a success.
SMASHfestUK 2018 - Living in Space - behind the scenes of the co-creation process:
"If the world really was devastated by natural disaster, we might have no option except to look to space for a new home for civilisation - could it be the Moon? Could we live on Mars? What would it take to build a world in outer space? How could we resource ourselves out is space?" This was the question that drove our big Living in Space collaborative project through 2017, into 2018. Working with over 6000 members of the public across the UK, during 6 different events; bringing together 5 universities, 4 schools, 2 museums, a software company, Astrocymru and the Royal Astronomical Society, we created a multi-part, semi-immersive experience which debuted at SMASHfestUK FLOOD! 2018 in Deptford.
SMASHfestUK joined with Middlesex University, Deptford Green School, Llangatwg Community School, Haberdashers’ Aske’s Hatcham College, Christ The King Sixth Form School, Monster Paw Games, Kerbal Space Program, Swansea University, Cardiff University, The National Museum of Wales, The Royal Observatory, Greenwich, Queen Mary University London, AstroCymru, and Dr. Sheila Kanani and Dr Lucinda Offer of the Royal Astronomical Society, in a project ‘Living in Space’ funded by the Science and Technology Facilities Council. Building on projects funded by the UK Space Agency ‘Space for All’ and the Royal Academy of Engineering ‘INGENIOUS’, exploring ideas and creating experiences with a diverse group of public visitors, young people, and engineering, design, mathematics and science professional experts.

I'm not a big fan of using the 1st person in forms. While the argument is that 1st person conveys ownership of the space, using 1st person eliminates the opportunity to treat the form as a conversation, where labels are the website's side and inputs are the visitor's side of the conversation.
This sign-up form (from the fab www.abtests.com/) speaks for the visitor, saying "I want to...", "I want my..." and talking to the website, saying "You can find me..." and "You can use this..." In general, people don't like having words put in their mouths. it's easy to get into an "Oh, no I _don't_ want to..." attitude when reading somone's words for you.
I'll have to do some comparison tests some time.
I love the 'Show Password' option that unmasks your password so you can opt to confirm that you typed it correctly, rather than forcing you to enter it twice (often copy/pasting to little effect).

How many humans life on the planet? And how many leaves does we have? In spring, summer or autumn, a forest's ground is always covered with leaves - leaves from the past few years, until finally they become soil again. Have you ever counted the number of leaves within a square meter on such a floor, or even in a quadrangle of 10cm x 10cm? And if so, how many would you have in a forest from one mountain?
Leaves are not only diverse with respect to their forms, but colors too: from yellow green, dark green to orange, red and brown. Assume further, that every leaf contains a couple of colors, and you end up with a vast variety of colors and forms.
Crimdon Dene is a limestone gorge formed by meltwater at the end of the last glacial period, carving through layers of glacial clay, sand, and gravel.
It contains ancient semi‑natural woodlands, recreational grasslands, and part of the Crimdon Burn stream.
Crimdon’s railway viaduct is part of the Hartlepool–Sunderland coastal line, historically known as the Hartlepool–Seaham section. Crimdon’s viaduct played a key role in connecting the Durham coast’s collieries and communities.

A representative soil profile of the Sabattis series in New York.
The Sabattis series consists of very deep, very poorly drained, loamy soils formed in till. Local colluvium provides a surficial mantle in some places and in other places the friable substratum has fluvial sorting. These soils are in low areas on till plains between ridges, hills and mountains. Slope ranges from 0 to 6 percent. Mean annual temperature is 43 degrees F, and mean annual precipitation is 38 inches.
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Coarse-loamy, mixed, active, nonacid, frigid Histic Humaquepts
Solum thickness ranges from 10 to 38 inches. Depth to bedrock is greater than 60 inches. Redoximorphic features consisting of iron depletions or reduced matrices occur within 20 inches of the mineral soil surface. Rock fragments, mainly gravel, cobbles and stones, range from 2 to 45 percent by volume in the mineral subsurface layer and subsoil, and from 5 to 45 percent in the substratum. Large stones and boulders commonly occupy 0.1 to 15 percent of the soil surface.
USE AND VEGETATION: Most areas are forested with red maple, yellow birch, balsam fir, eastern hemlock, black spruce and red spruce.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: The Adirondack mountains of New York and the fringe area adjacent to the Adirondacks and the Keweenaw peninsula of Upper Michigan. MLRA's 142 and 143 and 93. The series is of moderate extent.

Exposición permanente
Forma la colección permanente un numeroso conjunto de piezas (más de siete mil, sin contar libros, documentos y fotografías), de lo que se expone aproximadamente un cincuenta por ciento, que se agrupa en cuatro grandes áreas: Biología marina, Carpintería de ribera, Pesca tradicional e Historia de la navegación. Hagamos una breve descripción de sus contenidos.
Biología marina
El área de Biología marina sirve como una introducción al medio marino, y está formada por una amplia muestra de flora y fauna marinas, que abarca desde los tiempos prehistóricos (representados por numerosos especímenes fósiles), hasta los peces vivos que evolucionan en unos pequeños acuarios. Hay una espléndida colección de malacología, con bellos ejemplares que sorprenden por su brillo y colorido, y también crustáceos, corales, esponjas, aves que habitan los acantilados,..
Carpintería de ribera
La Carpintería de ribera puede considerarse uno de los puntos fuertes del Museo, pues hace honor a la importancia secular que tuvo en Luanco, donde se construyeron innumerables embarcaciones para todos los puertos del Cantábrico. Se ubica en la nave central del Museo, donde se ha reconstruido el casetón de un astillero, formado con elementos auténticos de antiguos talleres: herramientas, plantillas, gálibos, vagras, piezas de madera.
Pesca tradicional
El área de Pesca tradicionalestá próxima a la de Carpintería de ribera, compartiendo con ella la nave central, ya que entre ambas existe una obvia relación de complementariedad. Conforma esta sección una gran variedad de artes y aparejos de pesca -redes de abareque, volanta, palangres, caceas, cales, nasas, cedazos, trueles, fisgas, poteras,...-, clasificadas según las especies a capturar, todas del entorno del Mar Cantábrico -bonito, congrio, lubina, xarda, palometa, merluza, besugo, pulpo, angula...
Historia de la navegación
La sección de Historia de la navegación ocupa la segunda planta y en ella se hace un recorrido por la evolución de la tipología de los buques, con la exhibición de casi un centenar de maquetas elaboradas con todo detalle. Desde la remota Antigüedad hasta la actualidad, se pueden ver barcos egipcios, fenicios, griegos, romanos, vikingos, que dan paso al desarrollo de la vela con la carabela portuguesa, el galeón español, los espectaculares navíos de gran aparejo y los rápidos clipers, para desembocar en los barcos de vapor y después en los de motor.
Spectators enjoy late summer sunshine at Highfield, home to Fulwood & Broughton Cricket Club. Note the mural. Captured during the closing stages of a Tommy Wilson Trophy T20 final clash with Northern Premier League rivals Netherfield.
The Kendal-based visitors pipped Fulwood & Broughton in a low-scoring thriller that went to the last ball. Needing one to tie and two to win, with one wicket remaining, the hosts completed a single but suffered a runout going for the second. Having lost fewer wickets, Netherfield were able to celebrate. Some felt ‘super overs’ should have been used to determine the winner.
A difficult wicket and a damp outfield ensured both teams had trouble putting runs on the board - despite Highfield being a relatively small ground. With bowlers in command, each team managed only one six. Fours were in short supply, too. Netherfield were 50-3 after 10 overs then 66-4 after 15.
At tea, few would have put money on a Netherfield win. However, Fulwood & Broughton lost two wickets, before scoring a run, in the first over. Game on! The hosts were 49-3 after 10 overs then 67-5 after 15. Twenty-five was needed from the last 18 balls then 13 off the final over. A valiant effort, late in the game, gave Fulwood & Broughton a sniff of the cup but they fell agonisingly short.

Winning form returns against CIYMS
by Roger Corbett
In this important fixture, it was Bangor who took the victory against CIYMS by 22-5 resulting in the two sides swapping places in the league.
Bangor got the game underway, kicking off into a stiff breeze. Within 3 minutes, Bangor conceded the first penalty of the game, which CIYMS elected to kick for goal, but failed to convert. The Bangor back line looked sharp, with Davy Charles coming in from full back to break the CIYMS line and set up a promising attack. James Henly came close but the CIYMS defence was sound.
The Bangor pack had seen a number of changes as the result of ongoing injury problems, but it performed well in both scrum and lineout set pieces. In fact it was from a lineout after just 9 minutes that the ball was cleanly won and passed quickly to Jason Morgan at out half, who produced another great line to wrong foot the CIYMS defence and ghost in to score under the posts. The conversion was successfully taken by Neil Cuthbertson, putting Bangor into the lead by 7-0.
This gave Bangor the boost they needed, and they continued to dominate play. After a further 6 minutes, from a scrum just inside the CIYMS half, scrum half Craig Harper passed to Morgan who then off-loaded to Mike Aspley in the centre. Although tackled, he managed to get the ball to Phil Whyte who had followed up from propping in the scrum. Drawing the defending tacklers, he then passed to flanker James Henly who burst through to run in unopposed for Bangor’s second try under the posts. Again, the simple kick was converted by Cuthbertson, doubling the lead to 14-0.
CIYMS responded well, using the wind advantage wisely to bring play repeatedly back into Bangor’s territory, but mistakes at crucial periods of play denied them any meaningful scoring opportunities. Bangor, on the other hand, stuck to their plan and continued to apply pressure. This soon forced CIYMS to concede a kickable penalty, which Cuthbertson converted to increase the lead to 17-0 after 23 minutes of play.
However, just 3 minutes later, the referee showed the yellow card to captain Jamie Clegg after he was judged to have deliberately knocked on the ball while defending a CIYMS attack. From the subsequent penalty, CIYMS passed the ball wide to the left and made a push for the line. What looked like a certain try was prevented by great Bangor defending, as they managed to hold the ball up and win the turnover.
Within minutes of Clegg’s return from the sin bin, the circumstances that led to his penalty were repeated, this time by Jason Morgan who similarly was shown the referee’s yellow card. From this penalty, the CIYMS players didn’t make the same mistake as before, and finally managed to touch down for a try in the left hand corner. The difficult kick was missed, but CIYMS were now on the scoreboard, reducing Bangor’s lead to 17-5 as the first half drew to a close.
As the teams turned around and CIYMS got the second half underway, hopes were high that Bangor would build on their first half tries and use the wind to keep their opponents pinned down in their own twenty two. However, it’s fair to say that CIYMS came out the stronger and frustrated Bangor’s attacks, while moving the ball through their backs with more purpose and accuracy.
It was not until 30 minutes had been played that the second half deadlock was broken. From a long CIYMS clearance kick, the ball was safely taken by Harper inside his own half. Two long and quickly made passes, saw the ball move via Jason Morgan to Davy Charles whose pace was too much for the thinly spread CIYMS defence. Running wide, he rounded the final CIYMS players to score on the right hand side. Cuthbertson’s kick was just wide of the posts, but Bangor were now 3 tries to the good, and within sight of another bonus point victory.
However, just 2 minutes later, and with CIYMS moving back into Bangor territory, the game produced another sting for the home side. In his attempt to intercept a long CIYMS pass, he knocked the ball forward and stopped the CIYMS attack. The referee deemed this to be deliberate once again and produced a second yellow card which in turn led to a red card, and Morgan was to take no further part in the game. Stung by this set-back, and with just 8 minutes remaining, Bangor re-grouped and wisely focussed on defending their lead and denying CIYMS any further scoring chances. This they did, and as the final whistle was blown, they could celebrate a return to winning ways, and a return to their previously held 3rd position in the league.
This was an encouraging team performance that should give added confidence as the players now set their sights on the first round of the Towns Cup (next weekend, at home to City of Derry 2nds), followed by a challenging journey to league leaders Clogher Valley in the league afterwards.
