QUOTE….“The study of history was oddly congenial to Joseph. There was a kind of poetry in it for him. He had always loved those flamboyant tales of far-off strife, the carefully preserved legends of the fabled kings and kingdoms of Old Earth. But they were just tales to him, gaudy legends, ingenious dramatic fictions. He did not seriously think that men like Agamemnon and Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan had ever existed”. Robert Silverberg from The Longest Way Home

Food Science students took a break from studying on May 10 to participate in a little friendly competition on the lawn outside Bradfield Hall.

The Food Science Olympics, organized by the Food Science Club included an egg toss, saltine cracker and fruit roll-up eating competitions, Jello relay, and melon bowling.

Here, students Clint Hervert and Bridgette Wunder face off in the fruit roll-up finale.

This ain't no weather station. The anemometer -- measuring wind speeds in front of St. Peter's basilica. this helps the Vatican police and the Swiss guards -- the safe wind speed levels when a mass is scheduled at the square.

Science and Religion, if you master the former and keep your faith in the latter -- you can end up being invincible.

THE HIGH TEMPERATURE MATERIALS LABORATORY (HTML) BEING CONSTRUCTED AT DOE'S OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY WILL SERVE AS THE FOCAL POINT FOR A MULTIDISCIPLINARY STAFF INVESTIGATING CERAMICS WHICH HAVE POTENTIAL FOR HIGH-TEMPERATURE STRUCTURAL APPLICATION, SUCH AS IN ADVANCED DIESEL ENGINES, TURBINE BLADES, AND OTHER TRANSPORTATION AND ENERGY GENERATION SYSTEMS. IT WILL CONTAIN STATE-OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT FOR CORRELATING THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND MICROCHEMISTRY OF MATERIALS WITH THEIR PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES. THE TWO-LEVEL, 64,500 SQUARE-FOOT HTML WILL ALSO FUNCTION ASA USER FACILITY FOR INDUSTRIAL AND UNIVERSITY RESEARCH COMMUNITIES. OF THE 49 LABORATORIES IN THE HTML, 13 WILL COMPRISE USER CENTERS FOR ELECTRON OPTICS, HIGH-TEMPERATURE X-RAY DIFFRACTION, PHYSICAL PROPERTIES, AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES.

Lung cancer is by far the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women. More people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. The average lifetime chance that a man will develop lung cancer is about 1 in 13. For a woman it is 1 in 16. These numbers include both smokers and non-smokers. For smokers the risk is much higher, while for non-smokers the risk is lower.

SCIENCE!

I love looking at photos with supersuper high shutter speeds (1/1000 sec in this case). That tiny fraction of a second contains an entire world of things that happen so fast we don't even realize they happened at all.

The photo on the left, for instance, when the fountain is just forming. You can see a stream of Diet Coke trailing out of the paper tube we used to drop the Mentos into the bottle. In addition, There's still some actually coming out of the end of the tube, probably propelled only by inertia even after the tube's been pulled away.

And then the photo on the right. I just love the shapes that formed in the fountain. One would think it might just turn into a spray or come apart, but it clearly stays in a whole bunch of little spherical orbs of deliciousness as well as a giant, undulating snake of tooth decay.

Looks much better large.

D+B office tour to observe construction progress on the historic building and the assembly of the tilt-up panels for the new addition which will house the Planetarium dome.

---

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.
