I also wax lyrical about my research. Two bonus points to the first person who correctly identifies the location of the picture included with the post.<\/p>\n<p>Second, our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.donorschoose.org\/donors\/viewChallenge.html?id=73846&#038;max=25\">DonorsChoose Challenge<\/a> has gotten off to a strong start. In honor of Earth Science week and recognizing the value of reading and making maps for earth scientists of all stripes, I think it would be great to make two mapping projects a reality this week. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.donorschoose.org\/donors\/proposal.html?id=405449&#038;challengeid=73846\">Colorado students want a GPS unit to help with their geologic mapping project<\/a>.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.donorschoose.org\/donors\/proposal.html?id=418679&#038;challengeid=73846\">Students in Oregon need help making the translations between 2D topographic maps and the 3D Cascades Mountains and their teacher has identified some resources to help them<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Third, This Friday is <a href=\"http:\/\/blogactionday.change.org\/\">Blog Action Day<\/a> and the theme this year is water.  The event includes thousands of blogs and they&#8217;re looking for as many blogs to participate as possible, regardless of their size and focus.  Learn more at <a href=\"http:\/\/blogactionday.change.org\/\">http:\/\/blogactionday.change.org\/<\/a>. Personally, I&#8217;ll have a post about the connections between flooding, climate, and population growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s Earth Science Week.
