Olja Finn
As scientists, we conduct research not simply for the thrill of discovery, but in the fervent hope that our findings will one day improve human and/or animal health. But our work - and the entire scientific enterprise - depend on the federal funding that flows from taxpayer dollars. And many taxpayers do not understand what we do – while others doubt fundamental scientific theories. We must communicate better what we do, what it means, and why it matters to the public. In this session, NPR science correspondent Joe Palca and former AAI president Olja Finn will share their views on, and experiences with, communicating science, and discuss the challenges of bringing important scientific information to lay audiences. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions.

With the 2010-2011 school year upon us, Louisiana State Police reminds motorists to drive with care and be especially aware of school zone speed limits, school buses loading or unloading children, and children walking or biking to school.
Troopers will be patrolling school zones throughout the Troop A area and speeding will not be tolerated while the school zone speed limits are in effect.
Most school zones have a reduced speed limit in effect from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. However, some zones are marked with slightly different times. It is the responsibility of motorists to be aware of these speed zones and to reduce their speed accordingly.
In addition to the school zones, the motoring public must be aware of school buses that are loading or unloading children. If a school bus is stopped for this purpose and has its stop signs and red lights activated, motorists must stop not less than thirty feet from the bus and wait for the lights to be turned off before proceeding.
Never pass a stopped school bus picking up or dropping off a child. A school bus driver can report any violation of this law.
The fines for this violation can be substantial and your driver's license may be suspended.
Always assume there are children present any time you are near a school bus.
Motorists should expect traffic congestion and possible delays near school zones.
It is important for each driver to be patient with the increased traffic and allow extra time to arrive safely at their destination.

L'église Notre-Dame del Prat ou Sainte-Marie del Prat est un édifice religieux de style gothique méridional situé à Argelès-sur-Mer dans le département des Pyrénées-Orientales. C'est l'église paroissiale de la commune.

Situation
Sise au cœur du vieux village, l'église Notre-Dame del Prat est entourée par la rue de la Solidarité et fait face à la rue de la République sur son côté est.

Toponymie
En 1178, l'église est mentionnée sous le nom de parrochia S. Marie de Prato. Déjà une église paroissiale, elle est donc située au lieu-dit El Prat, sans doute le pré communal. Son nom en catalan est Santa Maria del Prat, identique à celui de deux autres églises disparues du département, à Bages et à Saint-André.

Historique

L'édifice est mentionné pour la première fois en 920. Cependant, la construction actuelle n'a apparemment conservé aucun vestige de cet édifice.
L'église est complètement reconstruite au  dans le style gothique méridional, avec une large nef flanquée de chapelles latérales et un imposant clocher-tour contre la façade sud.
Au , à la suite d'un effondrement du chœur, l'orientation de l'église est inversée : l'ancienne façade ouest devient le chevet, et le portail transféré sur le mur oriental, qui est alors reconstruit (ou du moins remanié). Ces travaux se poursuivent au  (la clef de voûte du nouveau chœur est datée de 1780) et ne s'achèveront qu'au , avec la mise en place d'une fausse voûte en remplacement de la charpente sur arc diaphragme d'origine, charpente qui sera finalement rétablie lors des travaux de restauration en 2000-2001. Les travaux reprennent en 2008 pour restaurer la façade et certaines chapelles latérales. Ils doivent prendre fin à la mi-2009.

Le clocher-tour est inscrit aux monuments historiques le , et le reste de l'église le .

Architecture

Depuis l'effondrement du chevet au , on pénètre dans l'église à l'est. Elle se compose d'une vaste nef de cinq travées, couverte d'une charpente sur arcs diaphragmes, flanquée au nord et au sud de chapelles latérales voûtées sur croisées d'ogives, et se terminant à l'ouest par une travée de chœur, de même hauteur et largeur, voûtée sur croisée d'ogives (la clef de voûte porte la date de 1780).
Extérieurement, l'édifice, dominé par son haut clocher du , est très sobre, et doté de quelques vestiges de fortification (bretèche au droit du clocher). La nef est rythmée extérieurement par les énormes contreforts qui séparent les chapelles latérales et contrebutent les arcs soutenant la charpente.

Westmont Magazine Seasons of Sleep
They say that you never know what you've got until it's gone and I can only assume that they — whoever they are — are talking about sleep. They also say humans need sleep to survive, and I can only assume that young parents aren't considered human, since I'm almost positive that I didn't really sleep in the first months of Nicholas's life, which was not a good thing. The only up-side was that I definitely would have survived a zombie attack, since the zombies would have assumed I was one of them already.
Twenty-eight years of blissful slumber came to a screeching halt on that cold January night Nicholas was born. The screeching came from two rooms down the hall in the hospital ward. Christine was resting in relative peace, still hours away from delivery. But a lady — I was pretty sure I was hearing a lady, or else a wild animal — was having her baby right then and yelling, "Ohhhhargh! It hurts, it hurts! Oh . . . my . . . God!" I huddled on the tiny couch beside my wife's bed, wondering what it would be like when my wife was yelling those same things. Christine looked over at me and asked, fearfully, "You don't think she has an epidural, do you?" I shook my head, eyes wide, and hoped I could get some sleep soon.
You see how slow on the uptake new dads are? I hoped I could get some sleep soon? From the present I can only smile and pat my past self on the head. When your wife is six centimeters dilated, you're not next in line to board the fast train to Sleepyville.
Nicholas was born in the early morning, and the first day of his life went by in a blur of weighings and swaddlings and excited conversations. Then night came—in Vancouver, in January, this seems to happen at about 3:30 p.m. — and I discovered one of the first commandments of fatherhood: thou shalt kiss sleep goodbye. That first night I got my best rest on a couch in the hospital hallway while holding my new son. My head flopped sideways at about a ninety degree angle, and I drooled all over my shoulder. When I woke up after what seemed like only twenty minutes — because it was only twenty minutes — both my legs were asleep, and when I tried to move them, Nicholas began to wake up. So instead of sleeping, I sat up awake, the pain in my neck and legs keeping me alert. Alert enough to understand the second commandment of fatherhood: baby's sleep is always more important than your own.
This experience isn't common to all new dads. A seasoned father I knew told me — sounding oddly proud, I thought — that he'd never gotten up in the middle of the night with any one of his three kids. From what I've observed, however, most new dads of my generation want to be more involved in the raising of their kids than their own dads were in raising them, so leaving mom on her own every night just isn't an option. And it's not like I had an important job to fall back on. I knew some dads who had to have sleep — I can't be tired at work . . . the fate of the free world depends on my being well rested! — but my job was dispensable, seeing as how I was studying art and theology full-time. (I did try it out one night. Me: "Honey, I'm going to sleep on the couch tonight and get eight hours. If I'm not fully rested tomorrow, who will answer the question in class about Niebuhr's impact on Christian political activism?" Christine: "Someone else?" Me: "Pass the burp cloth.")
My studies — and everything else in my life, really — became a blur, and only the moments I spent with Nicholas retained any sort of clarity. In between classes, I would stumble down to the library to catch a quick nap. There was no question of actually completing any work. What I needed was enough of a nap so I could stay awake through at least the first half of my next class before falling asleep again. I'd plop my head down on a book, drool into the binding, and wake with one minute to get to a class two flights of stairs above me. These were the days I was functioning well.
Nicholas, who slept as much as 18 hours some days, was unable to coordinate that sleeping with our schedule. He'd happily sack out on the couch during the day with all the lights on. We'd bang dishes, vacuum, and make a general ruckus, and he'd continue to snore contentedly. Then, when 10 p.m. rolled around, Nicholas would wake all the way up for his nightly round of screaming. The screaming didn't seem to help him fall asleep, and neither did the way he would thrash his arms and kick his legs. It was more like a full-body workout than a presleep routine, so early on we settled wrapping him tightly in swaddling blankets and trying to shush him over the noise of his screaming.
Our doctor told us that a baby in the womb hears a volume of sound that's similar to the volume of a vacuum cleaner. So when the baby is out in the real world, things can seem pretty quiet. If you want your kid to hear something, you have to create enough noise to make an impression. In those early months, I'd take our tiny, screaming egg roll into the family room so Christine could get some sleep. Then I'd lay down on the couch, turn on the Discovery Channel, and hold Nicholas on my chest. As he screamed, I'd thump his back and sing whatever song I could think of, from "Amazing Grace" to "U Can't Touch This." This usually did the trick, and Nicholas would drift off to sleep on my chest after a mere hour or so. In the meantime, I'd get to see great programming, like a special on Genghis Khan that I watched three nights in a row. Trying to read the closed captioning without my glasses was tricky, but I'm pretty sure Genghis liked chugging fermented horse milk, a drink that would have put Nicholas right to sleep, I bet.
As restful as those first few months of fatherhood were, there came a time when we decided that Nicholas was ready to join the club of people able to fall asleep on their own. What I didn't realize was that this meant committing ourselves to one of several opposing methodologies. Picking a sleep technique is no small choice — it can alienate you from friends and loved ones, like if Al Gore's son decided to become a coal miner.
In the interest of full disclosure, I'll tell you that we chose the cry-it-out approach, which makes us either responsible or cruel. I'm not interested in entering the trenches of the sleep war. Regardless of whether parents toss their kids in bed at the stroke of six and lock the door until morning or co-sleep with their child on a hemp mattress until the kid heads off to college, I've noticed that nearly all former kids know how to sleep. So we did what worked for us and tried not to worry too much about what other people were doing. This meant that we would make sure Nicholas was ready for bed — fed, burped, bathed, diapered, read to, prayed for, swaddled, and kissed — and then we'd lay him down and leave his room. Uncertain of what he was supposed to do in his bed once he was there, Nicholas would begin to scream while we listened. Actually, while I listened. On many nights like this, Christine would go somewhere — pottery class, soccer practice, a coffee shop — and I would stay at home on the couch, listening to the screams. It was better that way. As we like to say, I'm the heartless one.
Unhappy baby noises come in quite a few varieties, from your run-of-the-mill cry to your full-blown screaming bloody murder. Handily, these cries were easy to differentiate on our baby monitor. The receiving end of the monitor, perched above our computer desk, had three green lights on it. The more noise Nicholas was making, the more lights would shine. One light meant that things were just fine — he was grunting about something, but he'd calm down on his own. Two lights on meant that he was really crying, but he would almost always get quieter with no intervention.
When he was lighting up the whole monitor, though, that sure was something to listen to. It's easy to second-guess yourself when your child screams in bed every night; if I screamed every time I did something, I'm pretty sure, I'd stop doing it. Those nights I'd sit there on the couch, listening to Nicholas's cries coming through the monitor, as well as through the wall, and I'd wonder what he was thinking or trying to say. His tone of voice usually led me to assume it was something like, "I hate you I hate this get me out of this place ahhh!"
Going into his room certainly didn't make things any better, so at least I didn't have to torture myself by imagining that Nicholas was crying out for Daddy's love. When we experimented with going into his room to calm him down, he only screamed more loudly. Entering his room essentially reset the countdown timer for his going to sleep eventually. No, what he really wanted was to be unbundled and brought back to where the action was. Lying still in bed when there was stuff to look at and play with was an indignity beyond his ability to bear.
And mine. Because I was the one enforcing the cry-until-you-sleep policy, I felt a huge burden of guilt and doubt. I never really considered changing our plan of teaching Nicholas how to fall asleep on his own. It was more a matter of wondering why the plan that I knew was right had to feel so lousy. I suppose that each night, as Nicholas cried himself to sleep, I could have kept a journal of my feelings, exploring the nuances of my emotional reactions. Or I could have e-mailed my close friends, creating a YaYa Brotherhood of support and encouragement. Instead I watched a lot of professional wrestling on TV.
Wrestling is actually the perfect thing to watch when your wife is gone and you have to listen to your baby crying. If I tried to watch anything more engaging — "CSI: Miami," say — it always went badly. Either I would find myself missing the plot of the show because I couldn't hear what was going on, or, more disturbingly, I'd find myself wishing that Nicholas would be quiet so I could listen. Once, as I strained to hear a painfully . . . slow . . . speech . . . by . . . David . . . Caruso, I hopped up to turn off the monitor. That was when I knew I'd never watch that sort of show again while listening to Nicholas. If I was teaching Nicholas a skill that was somewhat painful for him, the least I could do was suffer a bit myself. And what, really, is more painful than watching pro wrestling?
I'm writing this from a later vantage point, so I know the story has a happy ending. As bad as we felt when Nicholas was crying, we always knew that he'd learn how to sleep well, and we were right. Before too long, he learned how to be a champion sleeper, going right to sleep and staying down the whole night. In the morning, he would always wake up happy as a clam, cooing in his crib as sunbeams slanted through his window. We'd go into his room to get him up, and he would smile at us like we were his favorite people in the world (and maybe we were, but he smiled exactly the same way at his favorite red lamp and at the painting of a sailboat on our wall). I'd open his swaddling blanket, and his little arms would pop out and shoot up into the air in a luxurious, full-body stretch. "Ahh," he'd say, or, "Goo.""You slept the whole night," we'd tell him, and he'd smile again.
The other morning I remembered how things used to be as I was awakened early — just before 6 a.m. — by the sound of Nicholas calling from his room. "Get up now? Daddy? Get up now?" I open his door and see him already standing in his crib. "It's morning?" he asks, and I reluctantly agree that technically it's morning. Nicholas happily shouts, "Play cars!" and jumps up and down. I get him out of bed and carry him down the hall, reminding him to whisper since Mama is still asleep. "Wee-per wee-per wee-per," he repeats quietly to himself. As soon as I set Nicholas down in the family room, he hops over to where his cars and trucks are lined up at a little gas station, and he lifts out a fire engine with two hands. "Noise?" he asks. I remind him that the buttons don't work, but that he can make a noise for it with his mouth, and I demonstrate. He turns away, unimpressed. "Noise?" he asks again and pushes the engine's buttons over and over.
Christine and I decided early on that battery-power toys were verboten. Against the tinny intrusiveness of beeping trucks and shouting action figures, we try to hold to a model of creative play powered by imagination — never mind the fact that Nicholas, like most boys his age, thinks that battery-powered toys are way cooler than regular toys. No sooner had we set forth this wise decree then we received a ton of new battery-powered toys — not ingenious wooden handicrafts lovingly carved in the Bavarian Alps, but a glut of double-A, double-loud, double-annoying plastic junk. You know the kind of toy I'm talking about — the tricked-out 4 x 4 that screams, "Racing action go!" in the voice of that monster-truck announcer. Sometimes, while Nicholas is sleeping, the battery fairy visits his toys and takes the batteries she finds to the nearest recycling center.
I'm glad that at least this morning's vehicle of choice is silent. As Nicholas drives one car after another through his service station, I thank God for the nation of Columbia and, specifically, its coffee plantations. The coffeemaker is making friendly noises as I settle onto a corner of the couch with my first steaming mug. Through the window, I can see the first glow of morning sunlight as the fog begins to disintegrate like cotton candy dropped in a puddle. It's early, there's no denying it, and I'll admit I'm tired. But not that tired. Not I-have-a-newborn tired. Nicholas knows how to sleep now, even if he doesn't know how to sleep in. I imagine him lying in bed until noon when he's a surly teenager and realize that I'll miss these early mornings together. So when Nicholas asks me to sit on the floor with him and drive cars up and down his ramp, I agree, knowing that this won't last forever. But first, I tell him, I need to refill my coffee mug.

Why might someone want to volunteer with you?
brightness_1 Wanting to give something back.
brightness_1 A commitment to help solve a local issue.
brightness_1 Friends already volunteer and seem to be enjoying it.
brightness_1 It's a way to improve your job prospects.
brightness_1 What might persuade them to volunteer.
Are you clear about what your volunteer will do?
It's worth spending time drawing up a task profile – or refreshing the one you have. Clarity is key to successful recruitment - it will help you attract someone with the qualities and skills you need. See our Nuts & Bolts guide to developing role profiles.
How will you promote your opportunity?
brightness_1 Volunteer Centre - register your opportunity with us, We make the opportunity available to potential volunteers contacting the centre and we will also upload the opportunity to the Volunteer connect database.
brightness_1 Word of mouth – make sure everyone you know knows that you're trying to recruit. The only problem is that through 'word of mouth' you tend to recruit people similar to your existing volunteers so you may not attract as diverse volunteers as you want.
brightness_1 Print – posters, leaflets or postcards can be an effective way of reaching people. You can display printed information in Schools and colleges, Libraries, Religious centres, Shop windows and Community centres.
brightness_1 Talks and events – visual images can bring a volunteering opportunity to life and volunteers themselves are most likely to inspire others.
brightness_1 Local press and radio – build a good relationship with local newspapers and radio stations, stressing the human interest of local people getting involved to help the community.
brightness_1 Keep the information simple and reflect the nature of the volunteering opportunity.
brightness_1 People tend to only read the first line	.
brightness_1 Use questions to guide the readers through what you're telling them.
Should you use an application form? - Asking volunteers to fill in an application form can be very appropriate and useful if the volunteer is going to need to have the skills utilised in filling out the application form when they are volunteering. If this is not the case, being asked to fill in an application form can be a daunting task and a barrier to volunteering.
Interviews – you might invite the volunteer for an 'informal chat' rather than an interview as an interview sounds very formal and can put people off. When you meet the volunteer, if they haven't filled in an application form themselves, you can ask them for all the information you need to fill in the form on their behalf.

Breaking Bad is nothing new for Tio — actor Mark Margolis! PODCAST INTERVIEW
Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience of mouth breathers, ear wagglers, toe tappers and other social malcontents who envy Mark Margolis and his cheek twitches and ding-dong… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida!
Mark Margolis, left, Giancarlo Esposito, in AMC's "Breaking Bad"
There are at least three elements to an award winning acting performance:
1) It starts with the source material. Is the writing sharp, evocative, and provocative?
2) Does the actor understand the words on the page and can he extend their value from words to performance?
3) And finally, is the audience emotionally moved by the actor?
MARK MARGOLIS podcast excerpt: "In Scarface, Al Pacino said if we put all our faces together we might be able to make one handsome guy!"

If you've been watching the AMC drama "Breaking Bad" over the years, you've had the privilege of seeing some extraordinary performances by the lead actors, Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn.
But some of the greatest moments have been of the smaller, more isolated type.
Like the ones featuring my guest today, Mark Margolis, who plays – or should I say played — Hector "Tio" Salamanca. You remember Hector, the notorious, bloodthirsty bastard we met as an old man and later in flashbacks as a young badass. As Hector, Margolis never says a word, communicating extraordinary viciousness and anger with nothing more than a glare and the pounding of a little bell.
Margolis was so terrifying as a bellringer that he's been nominated for 2012 Emmy Award as "Best Guest Actor."
Hopefully, he doesn't have that damn bell with him now.

Interview with Sergey Tchoban (Speech)
In light of the various museum projects you have dealt with, including the recent Museum of architectural graphics in Berlin, what is your museum concept for the present and the immediate future? What do you consider to be the relationship between the historical museum building and the new meaning of cultural entertainment?
The purpose of an architectural design museum is to present theme exhibitions with original works. So, what makes the new cultural project special and an example at the museum level? Well, in addition to exhibiting the drawings from the Tchoban Foundation collection, it will involve other organisations and museums to roll out an exchange of travelling exhibitions. This is also the foundation for my general museum concept. Museums must own their own their unique collection, and at the same time they need to attract interesting exhibition projects from other institutions; this means they have to draw attention to themselves and be of interest by diversifying the artworks on exhibition. The spatial concept of the museum and of its volumes must reflect its function, which is to offer varied exhibitions, at least in part, and to facilitate the move of single parts of those exhibitions. The museum's design concept should reflect its spatial features and the cultural project itself.
When the container is a historical building, the architecture itself is already interesting, so our job focuses on the set-up and lighting, which must be as contemporary as possible.
Moscow recently approved the basic guidelines for the redevelopment of the former ZIL industrial complex. An area where heavy vehicles used to be manufactured for the Russian market, in addition to the cars for the PCUS executives. It has now been earmarked as a new multipurpose area with apartments, offices, hotels, cultural centres, green areas, pedestrian paths etc. What part of this project is Speech involved in?
We were responsible for a master-plan of the part of the area relating to the hockey stadium and the swimming pool. Considering the social purpose of the ice-hockey palace, we proposed a large common area in front of its long façade, with a lot of entryways, a plaza that has the historical cupola building of the ZIL museum to the north and that ends with a bridge connecting the area with the park to the south.
What value do you place on history in your project philosophy? In the residential complex on Granatny street in Moscow, you drew inspiration from A. K. Burov's ornamental decorations. It is also interesting to see the conversion and reconstruction of an early 20th century bank building in St. Petersburg, into an apartment building. Do you think the old can still set an example for the modern, without creating conflict?
We seek interaction between the construction experience, the traditions of Russian architecture and the contemporary design goals. The Russian climate is distinctive in itself: there is not much light, particularly in winter, and sometimes it is necessary to consider the effect of air pollution, of the rain and of snow on the facades. To prevent the building from aging prematurely, the past masters used decorations and colours that could highlight the surface and give it volume even when there was little light and a great deal of heavy rainfall. A master like A. K. Burov worked extremely well with ornamental detail, which is why we thought it would be interesting to continue with his research.
Can you tell us what the Skolkovo innovation center is and how it came to be the centre of the Russian pavilion project at the most recent Architecture Biennale in Venice.
For us, "Common ground" also became the technological area of Skolkovo, a future-projected city whose image is designed by architects and residents working together. In the pavilion we wanted to spread the word about Skolkovo at different communication levels, with the aid of QR panels: it was an interesting process, developed from SPEECH Tchoban&Kuzntesov together with Grigory Revzin and Konstantin Chernozatonskij, which conveyed the nature of an innovative centre for technology, which is what we were aiming for. The QR-coded panels were positioned one after the other on the interior walls of the spaces and one of these – the Cupola – was one of the most frequently photographed and published patterns at the Biennale.
