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.”

The perennating organs of the potato (Solanum tuberosum) are underground tubers, which are swollen stems acting as food stores. Originally from the lower Andes in South America, this plant has been exploited in Europe as a food source since the 15th Century, owing to the high starch content and good keeping qualities of the tubers.
This image shows an old tuber, ready for planting. Shoots are growing from the tuber and these shoots have adventitious roots arising from the stem nodes. The shoots have grown in the dark and are etiolated (thin and elongated) and show chlorosis (lack of chlorophyll). Gardeners call the shoots ‘chits’.
The mature tuber is approximately 10 cm long.

Ritimukta Sarangi is a Staff Scientist for the Structural Molecular Biology Division at Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource of the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. She has held this position for three years, working on the design and development of a high-energy beamline with simultaneous polarized single-crystal X-ray absorption spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography capabilities. She began this work as an Associate Staff Scientist in 2007, upon her graduation from Stanford University with a Ph.D. in Chemistry. Ritimukta earned her M.Sc. in Chemistry from the India Institute of Technology in 2001, and her B.Sc. in Chemistry with a minor in Physics and Mathematics from Saint Xavier’s College in Kolkata, India. She mentors high school students in Stanford’s RISE program, is a lecturer at the Annual School of Synchrotron Radiation at SSRL, two summer school programs at SSRL, and is a member of several professional organizations. Ritimukta has lectured all over the world, and holds awards from Stanford, Q2XAFS, SLAC, and others.

October 10 2008 - I just recently heard it closed permanently. It makes me quite sad to hear that. Many of my best Sundays started here.
a tomato stem. so, like, i thought tomatoes were citrus since they have citric acid, but, like, i was apparently wrong.

Systems Engineering Manager Mark Strickenburg assists Joshua Lewis with his radio build as part of the Northrop Grumman STEM event.
Urology focuses on the urinary tracts of males and females, and on the reproductive system of males. In men, the urinary system overlaps with the reproductive system, and in women the urinary tract opens into the vulva. In both sexes, the urinary and reproductive tracts are close together, and disorders of one often affect the other. Call us for more information>>>Dr. Todd malan

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.
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
The Science, Technolgy Engineering Mathmatics (STEM) partnership had a Forum Event "Gathering Momentum" at the Henry Ford College, Loughborough University on Wed..In the picture are some of the guest speakers, from the left, Rick Hall, Sarah Hill, David Wilkinson, Geoffrey Taylor Henry Lau and Pat Morton

common name water weed
magnification: 100x

Submerged hydrophytes like Elodea show numerous adaptations to an aquatic life. Notably there are no internal support tissues like collenchyma or sclerenchyma. The stem is entirely support by the water.
The epidermis is uniseriate and photosynthetic with a thin to non-existent cuticle and scattered stomata.
The bulk of the stem is occupied by a cortex that consists of a narrow outer zone of densely packed parenchyma cells and a large inner zone of aerenchyma with large radially arranged air pockets. The cells of the entire cortex contain abundant chloroplasts.
Vascular tissues are limited to the central stele and show no clear differentiation into xylem and phloem. In some specimens a single xylem vessel may be seen in the center of the stele.
A large air cavity occupies the center of the stele.
