The LCC Science Fiction Club put on a halloween themed event to protect the LCC Campus from Pestum Immortosis - the zombie plague! Club members and the campus had a blast getting candy and pretending.
Everyone was invited to participate in the Zombie Plague Vaccination Program (ZPVP) where Nurses’* Station administered zombie plague vaccinations* in the Student Center on Monday, Oct. 28 and Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2013.
For those that got bitten by a zombie* before being vaccinated*, medication* from the ZPVP Nurses’ Station was available to slow the progression of the disease.
* Notes: Not real nurses, though some of them may play nurses on T.V. Vaccinations and medications are non-pharmaceutical candy-placebos. Zombie-actors respected personal space, and those that participate received a zombie “bite” certificate.

Description: Segmented model of the cervical spine extracted from CT images. Segmentation is the partitioning of an image volume into non-overlapping voxelized regions. Each region defines the geometric locus of an anatomical structure. As part of the geometric modeling process, segmentation is the turning point in anatomical representation: it establishes the transition from the supportive bi-dimensional image realm (image data) to a fully tri-dimensional domain (mesh data).

Crocheting science. Free pattern here: knittyprofessors.blogspot.com/2008/10/free-covalence-skin...
Per the author, the pattern is inspired by covalent bonding. Per wikipedia:
A covalent bond is a form of chemical bonding that is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms, or between atoms and other covalent bonds. In short, attraction-to-repulsion stability that forms between atoms when they share electrons is known as covalent bonding.
H2O is a covalent bond.
I made the scarf out of Limari in a turquoise colorway. It has a gradient color ranging from a dark turquoise to a lighter blue and is a super bulky mohair/silk/alpaca blend. I choose it for this project because it is smooth and silky and the flow of it across my fingers reminds me of the flow of water across stones in a creek.
Pacific Science Center includes six acres of hands-on science fun, two IMAX theaters, Tropical Butterfly House, Live Science Stage shows, Discovery Carts, Laser Dome and much more.

Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture’s design for the Powerhouse Science Center re-envisions a historic riverfront structure as a hub for science education, exploration and promotion in the City of Sacramento. On the banks of the Sacramento River, the Science Center grows out from an abandoned power station building. As a principal component of the Riverfront activation, the Powerhouse Science Center anchors Robert T. Matsui Waterfront Park and borders the southern terminus of the 32-mile American River Bike Trail.
Vacant for over half a century, the structure undergoes a complete historic rehabilitation and the construction of a new floor level inside. A new two-story addition projects from the east side, containing a lobby, classrooms, offices and a cafe. A 110-seat planetarium is prominently on display with a zinc-clad hemispheric dome rising above the building’s mass. As representation of our place in the universe, the facade and building mass is sectioned by multiple planes, creating continuous vector lines that extend across the building and site. From satellites to world landmarks, the lines form connections with local and global points of interest.
The original PG&E Power Station B was designed in 1912 in the Beaux Arts Style by architect Willis Polk and was formally closed in 1954. It is on the National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historic Places and the Sacramento Register of Historic & Cultural Resources. The Powerhouse Science Center is designed to achieve a USGBC LEED Rating of Silver.
Sometimes science is recognized as having an ivory-towered view on certain things. So here is the view out of one of those ivory towers ;-)

As part of Manchester Science Festival. The ‘Science Extravaganza’ brings together experts from across the faculty, creating family friendly workshops for members of the public. This year, the John Dalton Building became a Forensics Lab for a giant game of ‘who done it’, complete with detective notebooks and crime scene tape…
We were also proud to to host Combination Dance Co. working in collaboration with scientists from MMU, UCL and the Motor Neuron Disease Association. Dancers and martial arts performers staged an interactive dance exploring how we currently understand a motor neurone works, how MND affects the body and the effects MND has on those living with the disease.

Launched in February 2018, CMBP was originally a technical hub based in Hanoi, Vietnam, shared by 4 partners (CIRAD, CIAT-Asia, AGI and Deakin University).
In January 2019, with more than 10 partners on board, it was evident that CMBP should be more than a technical hub, and a regional network across South East Asia and the Pacific region was created. To-date, the CMBP has welcomed more than 60 partners from 19 countries in the world, and we are proud to count universities, research institutes and private companies as active members of the network.
