Anyway, in addition to reading up on film criticism and helping my cousin with his research on. Neither of which, I’m sorry to say, I was brave enough to watch on my own in the typhoon storminess of that summer… What can I say, I’m a film-wuss, and too highly impressionable for my own good… Where was I? Bamboo in the garden. Bamboo in the familial garden. More Sculpture at Cheng Da. 8212; a marble statue at the Louvre. This sculpture (after a squinting look at the blurry zoomed-in tag) is called R...

http://astrodyke.blogspot.com/2010/08/milky-j-is-back.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Milky J is back. In the next installment, Milky J. The Hubble-obsessed rapper from the Jimmy Fallon show, learns about the James Webb Space Telescope and what it can do that Hubble can't, by visiting the cleanrooms at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. NASA was tickled to have him. Two behind the scenes. The former with links to Milky J's other Hubble episodes. Last month, two of my colleagues visited an inner-city summer program for African-American elementary school kids....

http://astrodyke.blogspot.com/2011/06/will-astronomers-recognize-frank.html
Wednesday, June 1, 2011. Will astronomers recognize Frank Kameny's contributions? Is the most famous former astronomer that astronomers don't know. Within the gay rights' community, he was a pioneer: co-founder of the Mattachine society. An early gay rights organization); a scientific conscience. Dr Kameny was fired from government service in 1957 for being gay. In 2009, the White House formally apologized. Professors: include him in your "exploring career paths" workshop. (You have one, right? Uppity no...

Tuesday, July 24, 2012. I'm behind on posting, but this was welcome news: there is now a minor planet named. For LGBT civil rights pioneer and former astronomer Dr. Frank Kameny.

The AstroDyke: Update on the academic astronomy job market
http://astrodyke.blogspot.com/2010/04/update-on-academic-astronomy-job-market.html
Wednesday, April 7, 2010. Update on the academic astronomy job market. From the Women in Astronomy blog. Comes Hannah's summary of the employment session. Of the winter American Astronomical Society meeting. Wow:. That factor of 2-to-1 is roughly consistent with the numbers in this recent whitepaper. By A Seth et al. Curious what counts as job openings in this statistic. Just straight astro positions? Physics positions at a SLAC that include astronomy teaching? CC physical science positions? Uppity notes...

Say Hello… | Becoming Taiwanese
https://meiguotaiwanren.wordpress.com/say-hello
The e-mail address might be faster than a sky lantern, should you want to send me private correspondence. I do have a very soft spot for sky lanterns, though I hear there’s an ordinance against them in Taipei, so you probably shouldn’t fire one up for me. I make no promises to answer any and all random questions (though I can dodge quite elegantly at times, if I do say so myself). Responses to “Say Hello…”. Feed for this Entry.

The AstroDyke: The accelerating universe: still blowing minds
http://astrodyke.blogspot.com/2012/01/accelerating-universe-still-blowing.html
Thursday, January 12, 2012. The accelerating universe: still blowing minds. This was something she'd never heard of, but was absolutely fascinated by. And this was a well-read, well-educated, news-following person. Not only will the Universe never contract into a Big Crunch, it's flying apart! So what's up with that? Are we just bad at explaining stuff? Or is the behavior and ultimate fate of the Universe really not something every educated person should know? January 12, 2012 at 11:07 AM. Listen: there'...
