Dayron, Tafadzwa, and P.J. look on as two students eagerly launch one of the model rockets that the kids built during Science Savvy. Disappearing in just the blink of an eye, the rocket quickly deployed its parachute and drifted serenely back down.

Duke University Physics Department, Science Night 2010
Sep 22 four student volunteers from the Physics Dept’s Outreach Group joined the Chemistry Dept’s Outreach Group for “An Evening of Science” in front of the French Science Building. Using demonstrations, the students explained two topics they learned in mechanics, Newton’s 3rd Law and Waves.
The image here is of a Ruben’s Tube. The pipe has a speaker inserted in one end and the other end plugged. There is a line of small holes drilled along the top and a gas valve on the front – basically a long grill with a speaker in one end. (The Outreach group can cook hot dogs, too!) After turning on the gas and lighting, an amplified function generator sends a sine wave to the speaker at one of the tube’s resonant frequencies. The flame heights will vary according to the sound pressure level at each hole thus the standing wave in flames.

Original pilot Bessemer converter from which the first cast of steel was poured at the works of the Barrow Haematite Steel Company Ltd., Barrow-in-Furness, in May 1865
Sir Henry Bessemer (1813-1898) was an English inventor and engineer who invented a cheap process for maufacturing steel. He patented a process by which molten pig iron was converted to steel by blowing air through it in a Bessemer converter.This removed most of the impurities and no extra fuel was required, because the carbon, oxidised during the blow, generated great heat. Establishing a steelworks in Sheffield, England, Bessemer manufactured guns and, later, steel rails.

Mr. McAlduff answers a question about the Winchestser High School phone system. The current system will be replaced with a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) system, allowing teachers to reliably retrieve their messages by voice or by computer. The state will reimburse Winchester $1250 per student (capacity of the new design is 1370 students) for technology expenses. Neighboring school districts report that technology uprgrades cost an additional $600 per student. The plans include capacity for 3 wireless devices for each student and faculty member.

MINISTER ENGLISH ANNOUNCES €2.8 MILLION SCIENCE FOUNDATION IRELAND INVESTMENT IN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING & MATHS PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT & EDUCATION INITIATIVES
The Minister for Research, Innovation and Skills, Damien English, TD today announced details of a €2.8 million national investment in 42 initiatives aimed at engaging the Irish public in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) through Science Foundation Ireland’s Discover funding awards. This investment further supports our national aim to have the most scientifically engaged public; breaking down barriers and creating more accessible paths to skill acquisition and ultimately fulfilling careers in science, technology, engineering and maths. Geographically dispersed, it is estimated that these STEM projects will touch 3.6 million people in Ireland by the end of 2017.
Apparently the water exhibits have laid dry for several years. It's a little creepy - like a post-apocalypse movie.
