Late Friday night, 40 high school girls arrived at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, for a STEM-themed sleepover, ready to learn about careers in Science, technology, engineering and math. The educational event offered young women a chance to meet working female scientists and to discover opportunities for women in STEM-related professions.
The teens kicked off the third annual STEM Girls Night In with an astronaut Q&A, talks from female scientists across disciplines and a collection of hands-on activities. The night culminated in a three-hour Mars rover competition and concluded with a late-night showing of “Hidden Figures.”

Here's a recumbent quad trike made with at least 8 ahead stems as connectors.

Wheat stem with pustules caused by stem rust (Puccinia graminis). These are dark reddish brown, contain masses of urediospores, and may occur on both sides of the leaves, on the stems, and on the spikes.

Following collection from infected wheat plants using a cyclone collector, stem rust spores are sieved to remove chaff and other detritus, at the Njoro research station, part of the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI). These spores can be stored for use in inoculation the next season.
Njoro is home to an ongoing screening program, working in close partnership with CIMMYT to identify sources of resistance to the Ug99 race of stem rust. This virulent new strain of the disease, which emerged in Uganda in 1999, is already endemic in the area, making it possible to use Njoro as a testing ground for wheats from all over the world. More than 30,000 wheat lines are now being screened each year.
For more information on stem rust, see CIMMYT's Wheat Doctor: wheatdoctor.cimmyt.org/en/pests-a-diseases/list/122?task=....
For information on collection and inoculation techniques, see the CIMMYT publication "Rust diseases of wheat: Concepts and methods of disease management", available as a pdf at: libcatalog.cimmyt.org/download/cim/38487.pdf.

Finally a little progress after several weeks out on a mission project.. Had the RV parked on the bank of the Chesapeake Bay? A Hardship! NO BOAT! But got back and installed the stem reinforcement. Here is the additional wood reinforcemetn that backs up the bow.

Stem rot caused by Helminthosporium sigmoideum ( Leptosphaeria salvinii or Magnaporthe salvinii
) (Photo 80) — Infection usually occurs near
the waterline, entering through wounds and injuries.
It starts as blackish, dark, irregular lesions on
the outer leaf sheath and gradually enlarges.
Eventually, the fungus penetrates into the culm
and weakens the stems and leads to lodging
(Photo 81).
