Sparkle Training at ACS headquarters in Washington, DC. I attended the Sparkle training as Jack Driscoll but quickly became introduced as Jen's Dad since Jennifer had given a wonderful training session on social Media at Sparkle 2011. It was very a helpful training course particularly with the role playing and video preparation with the media. there were PR Chairs from 24 sections at the training course.

STEM Expo
May 24, 2012 • Bridgewater State University • Free Event
Imagine a group of students on an interactive journey using a flight simulator – watch as they create a battery using lemons – join as they build an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) – observe as they use statistics to create the best offensive unit of a new NFL team – assist as they learn to check and record the vital signs of a newborn.
These are just a few of the activities to take place at the 2012 STEM Expo, Envision Your Future, at Bridgewater State University. 500 students, grades five through eight, are expected to participate. The Expo aims to get Southeastern Massachusetts students excited about pursuing education and careers in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math (STEM).

Rapid Analysis of Gaseous and Liquid Hydrocarbons Using Fast GC- Reduces Analysis Times by > 50%,#Fast_GC,#C1-C6_hdrocarbons.#GC
We have used the analysis of C1 to C6 hydrocarbons with a 30M x 0.32mm id with a 5 film to demonstrate the separation of both gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons rapidly while reducing analysis time by more than 50%.
The figure below illustrates the isothermal separation of C1 to C6 HC. A low temperature (35oC) is requires to separate methane from ethane and propane. The detector was the far UV absorbance detector and the analysis time was 15 minutes. This analysis can be sped up using temperature programming but with the long cool down times of most GC ovens, the analysis times can be reduced to about 12 minutes.
Much of the previous work on “fast GC” utilized short (5M) thin film capillary columns to elute solutes quickly and the result is rapid but inferior separations because of the short column. New technology developed at Valco’s capillary column development center where VICI takes polyimide-coated fused silica (FST) and removes the polyimide layer. Then the (FST) is electroplated with nickel. As a result of the superior heat transfer of the electroplated nickel, we are able to rapidly and efficiently heat and achieve excellent resolution for a 30M capillary column.
These columns can be programmed faster (hundreds of degrees/min)- save 50-90%
The columns can be reliable started a few degrees above ambient
These columns cool down faster because of their low mass, so savings are> 50%
Several examples of C1 to C6 HC that are given below demonstrate a > 50% reduction in analysis times:The columns can be programmed faster 50-60o/min and will cool down faster as a result of their low mass. The columns can be reliably programmed from several degrees above ambient which is not possible with most GC/s.
A comparison of a GC with a normal oven and a fast GC column are shown below.

News from the State: @Scale RFP Issued
$500,000 Available for Projects Promoting STEM Preparedness and Interest
The Department of Higher Education has announced the availability of new funds to support projects promoting STEM student readiness and interest. The new grant program builds on last year's "@Scale" initiative and targets programs that have proven success, strong foundations in research, are ready for replication, and which address quantifiable challenges directly related to the goals of the State STEM Plan. Examples of projects that have already received endorsement from the Governor's STEM Council are available on the DHE STEM Pipeline website. New proposals are expected to meet the same @Scale criteria. The $500,000 to be awarded by the DHE is expected to leverage private sector matching funds to support STEM implementation projects across the Commonwealth based on the principles of the @Scale initiative. See the website for additional information on the endorsed projects, and for application materials: DHE STEM Pipeline Fund.

Entrepreneurs Wanted for Seminars at Emanuel College
Dr. Michael Berger in the Department of Chemistry and Physics at Simmons College is putting together a speakers series in March and April for the greater Simmons and Colleges of the Fenway community on "startups by scientists and how they did it." The format is flexible, and the speaker could be part of a small panel or individual speaker. The idea of the speaker series is introducing the concept of entrepreneurship to students in the sciences and what the career path looks like.
If you are interested in participating in the series as a speaker or on a small panel, please contact Dr. Michael Berger at 617-290-5984 or send an email to

FREE Science Activity Kit for Teachers from ACS to celebrate the International Year of Chemistry (IYC) 2011!#ACS#IYC
Although it’s now 2012, Chemistry: Investigating Your World kits are available for upper elementary and middle school teachers who register for one at www.acs.org/iyckit.
In addition to a poster and activity guide, the kit contains materials for an entire classroom of students to explore the four clues of chemical change:
- Production of a gas
- Formation of a precipitate
- Color Change
- Change in temperature
Check out the four lessons to find out how meeting scientists around the world, investigating clues of chemical change, and real-life applications are woven together to make learning chemistry relevant and fun. Then be sure to sign up for your free kit as soon as possible. Supplies are limited!
