Some of the first season's hemp grown at Ponder Farm in Ashford. The whole hemp stem is used as a building material.
On Sunday, August 20, 2017, Chargé d’Affairs Joel Reifman congratulated Bangladeshi STEM students who recently participated in a number of robotic and social media competitions at a reception event at the U.S. Ambassador’s residence. The reception was organized by the American Center Dhaka to honor participants including Bangladeshi Mars Rover teams from six different universities, the Robot Olympiad’s high school team, and Dhaka University’s team attending Peer 2 Peer (P2P): Facebook Global Digital Challenge in the USA.

Baltimore District employees help to coordinate "Easy as Pi," a STEM event for students from over eight Maryland counties featuring presentations from several career fields. Forensic scientist Kelly Knight brought in test kits for the students to practice testing for the presence of blood at a crime scene
These students from Kashmere, North Early College, and Wheatley High Schools worked in cooperative groups to solve a real world problem. Each group of 3 to 4 students posed as an engineering firm that would submit a robotics solution to a geophysics problem. Teams used the LEGO Mindstorm NXT robot to design a vehicle that could climb to the top of a Mountain to retrieve rocks that stored energy. Their vehicle should be able to climb the mountain and continue its motion as the slope of the mountain increased. The team whose robot climbed the highest would win the bid with my company.
GÉNIales, les filles est une occasion stimulante pour les filles de connaître davantage le monde merveilleux de l’ingénierie
This event is to encourage girls to consider studies and careers in engineering by introducing them to fun hands-on activities
Triffids have a straight stem, springing from a woody bole which is shaggy with little rootlet hairs. This bole is roughly spherical with three bluntly-tapered projections extending from the lower part. These can dig into the soil to function as temporary roots.
At the top of the stem is a funnel-like formation which has a tightly-wrapped green whorl within resembling a rolled fern frond. This whorl is sticky and can lash out at passing animals. It carries a sting which can kill a full-grown man; the poison is carried in sacs at the base of the sting. Common methods of self-defense against a triffid are fleeing (they can only move at walking pace), blasting with a shotgun or decapitating with a triffid gun (which fires steel boomerangs called 'bolts').
Removing the top will make them safe but not kill them and, to prevent them calling for help, it is wise to destroy the clatter sticks. The stems do not snap but can be mangled.

Early morning out for breakfast with Jill, so I had a little time afterwards to stop by the Two Rivers Park....to shoot grass. Yep, seems the "little time" before work was spent trying to shoot the grass along the walking path that I ran out of time before getting to the new pedestrian bridge. Hey, there's always tomorrow!
