In turn they will carry the flag for future generations. ISRAELI MEMBER TO US SCIENCE ACADEMYTechnion chemistry Prof. Aaron Ciechanover has been named a new member of the US Academy of Sciences and the Arts – one of the oldest and most prestigious science academies and research centers in the world. Ciechanover who shared the Nobel Prize for Chemistry with colleague Prof. Avram Hershko in 2004 is one of 190 new members and 22 foreign honorary members from Europe Asia Africa Australia Canada Mexico and with Ciechanover Israel… ISRAELI MEMBER TO US SCIENCE ACADEMYTechnion chemistry Prof. Aaron Ciechanover has been named a new member of the US Academy of Sciences and the Arts – one of the oldest and most prestigious science academies and research centers in the world.

Teens Try to Spark Science Bug in Children

“I’m excited about the day. It helps us learn stuff that we also learn in the classroom. “Sixteen-year-old Kelly Greico who was working the chemistry booth said it was hard to come up with ways to teach a challenging topic to young minds. The demonstration she said was something her team knew would catch their eye. “It was interesting to try and come up with what to say at their level” she said. “The topics we presented we just learned sitting in chemistry class but we had to come up with hands-on [activities] and different ways to get the kids to learn them. “Pyrotechnics forensic science and astronomy also were popular topics among students… The demonstration she said was something her team knew would catch their eye. “It was interesting to try and come up with what to say at their level” she said. “The topics we presented we just learned sitting in chemistry class but we had to come up with hands-on [activities] and different ways to get the kids to learn them. “Pyrotechnics forensic science and astronomy also were popular topics among students. After listening to presentations at the booths a sea of tiny hands would shoot up as the high-schoolers quizzed students on what they had learned. They would break into wide grins on being rewarded with high-fives and sweets for correct answers. “My favorite was learning about space because they talked about space and why the sun glows yellow” 9-year-old Romello Barr said.
Hossa and Penguins Regain Postseason Touch
New York Times – May 31, 2008
Hockey-wise it has been incredible. ”Dupuis was folded into the Penguins’ lineup almost seamlessly becoming a key penalty killer as well as a linemate for Crosby. Hossa though struggled with a knee injury and with finding chemistry with Crosby who was also missing time with a sprained ankle. “He was really mad” Dupuis said of Hossa. “He came here for one goal. We both came here wanting to win the Cup. The guy he came to play with Sid was hurt and he got hurt right away and it took awhile for both guys to get back in the lineup.

Lump spotted on Mars might be ice – or stone
San Francisco Chronicle – May 31, 2008
Color images could answer the rock-or-ice question. “We think that if the hard features are ice they will become brighter because atmospheric water vapor will collect as new frost on the ice. Problems with gas analyzerOne Phoenix instrument called the Thermal and Evolved Gas Analyzer is designed to bake and vaporize the Martian soil that the robotic arm scoops up when work starts next week and then analyze its chemistry. But tests Thursday night showed it has developed an intermittent short-circuit problem so the scientists sent signals to the lander to find out precisely what’s wrong. “We have identified workarounds for some of the possibilities” said William Boynton chief scientist for the instrument at the University of Arizona. The Canadian Space Agency’s meteorology station aboard Phoenix is functioning flawlessly said chief engineer Mike Daly. The Martian day Friday was sunny with the high temperature at 22 degrees below zero Fahrenheit and the low at 112 below.

High expectations big complications
USA Today – May 31, 2008
But maybe there are ways to jump-start foundering teams. Tigers manager Jim Leyland blew a gasket over comments in a USA TODAY cover story last week by former Tigers pitcher. Of course that’s the same Leyland who in that same cover story also resoundingly criticized his team’s play over the season’s first seven weeks placing much of the blame on himself.
