 certainly broadened my horizons a little more and hopefully some of YOU found it useful too.
If you have any more probing questions about a career in scicomm for Katy, then leave them in the comments and I will fire them over to her, or you can follow her on Twitter and ask for some more advice there too!
Hi Sophie, Great post about leaving the lab bench for scicomm careers! I’ve been struggling with this decision for a while as well, and I’ve decided to graduate with a masters in neurobiology and pursue a PhD in communications to study science communication. When I first got interested in scicomm I remember thinking, it would be super cool if I could do a PhD in scicomm and then discovered there were programs that would let me do just that! I’ve been conducting informational interviews to get more of an idea of future careers from science writing to university communications officers, museums, etc and it’s so important to make people aware of the wide variety of career options. Reading Katy’s experience in the guest blog was really great!
Whoa! Would love to see a list of programs specifically for scicomm! I would also love to hear more about what you’ve learned through your informational interviews!
Hi Sophie! Loved this post because it gave great insight into what this career is like and what kinds of experiences helped Katy prepare best so that I and other current graduate students can figure out how to develop useful skills for careers in scicomm! It was very interesting to know that the other people in her team don’t have their PhDs! Looking forward to the rest of the series!
This woman knows: there are many ways to "clear/cleanse/build" and when done properly, such a protocol works with any body be it canine, feline, human, etc..
No one, including a pet, catches cancer. It develops in a body that is toxic and out of balance. It is a symptom. Addressing the cause enables the body to HEAL ITSELF.
I learned this the hard way and you can read my story here.
In the meantime, enjoy this woman's demonstration of how dramatically a body can heal itself!All dreams of life seldom come true and many wishes remain unsatisfied all along.
The two twin sons of Lala Jagatnarayan, the High court judge, namely Ramesh and Rajesh resemble so much in the facial description that even their parents used to commit mistakes for one another.
One was illuminator of the world while and the other found delight in the darkness around.
Asha, the daughter of retired officer Mr. Misraji, was highly esteemed by both. But Asha mistook them for one another. Asha gets betrothed to Ramesh which causes deep concern to Rajesh and he feels jealous of Ramesh.
Finding no further interests in life, Rajesh goes astray. He comes in contact with a society girl named Shabnam, who for her own ends misdirects him and forces him to become a smuggler. Now Rajesh was strolling in gold, but he was caught red-handed and was sentenced. The father who was suffering from heart trouble could not bear this shock and expired of heart failure.
Rajesh remains unchanged even after his release and there is a combat between the two brothers. The mother tries to intervene but unluckily she falls from the ladder and losses her eyesight. Rajesh while doing his misdeeds is made to kill one Seth of Delhi who also dealt in the smuggling business. But the unfortunate part of the theme is that Ramesh who happened to be in the same hotel at that time was mistaken for Rajesh and arrested. 
Asha was fully entangled in the plot of Rajesh. Shabnam also fell prey and was murdered by Rajesh.
Police are under suspense and to who of the two is the real murderer. In the end how this mystery was solved, how Ramesh was saved, and how the mother has bestowed back the light of her eyes.!
See and do see the same on the silver screen.
Yesterday Jim led a small band of us on a trip to Tony’s Cabin in the eastern Superstitions. This was a “beat the heat” tactic, as the route lies completely above 4,000 feet. There are at least a couple of routes to the site. We hiked in and out from the “upper” Haunted Canyon trailhead on FR287A. This is about an 8 mile round trip, and the accumulated elevation gain is 2,000 feet. The temperature at the trailhead in the morning was 59 degrees, and 78 degrees when we returned in the afternoon, compared to the 90’s in the valley.
Half the adventure is getting to the trailhead. It is located about 10 miles off US 60, and the road first passes a few miles through the Pinto Valley copper mine, then deteriorates (yes, that’s the correct word) into a steep and twisty one-lane mountain trail for the remaining 6 or 7 miles. This old bridge was just 8 inches or so wider than my “dually” pickup! At some points along the road both outside rear tires were off the road.
The hike opens with 900-foot climb over about 1.5 miles to a grassy ridge overlooking Haunted Canyon. Most of the climb is in the shade of cedars, cypress, and sycamore trees. The trail is easy to follow, with a lot of easy water crossings (handy place to dip your cap in the water and cool your head), and a few deadfalls to negotiate.
You’ve reached the crest of the climb when you see this weathered old tree where we gathered for a group photo. From left to right, Jim, me, Brian, Dick, and Frank. Peter is behind the camera.
From this crest the trail descends 1,100 feet over about 2.5 miles into Haunted Canyon and the site of the old Tony ranch. Here’s a view from just past the trail crest, looking down into the maze of canyons below.
The descent into the canyon is more gradual, and again the shaded trail involves a number of creek crossings. The Supes are blessed with a lot of water this spring.
Our destination for this hike is the old Tony homestead. In 1913 William Toney built this log cabin and homesteaded 78 acres of the surrounding canyon floor. 100 years ago this remote place became the home of William, his wife Ella, and 7 children. Records indicate they farmed wheat, beans, and other crops, and planted a 600-tree orchard here. I didn’t find any evidence of fruit trees, but they may well have long died and decayed over the century since then.
Can you identify this item, seen hanging on the cabin wall?
After a leisurely lunch break, we reversed our trail and climbed (1,100 feet) back out of the canyon by the same route.
This was a very rewarding hike; the canyon setting of this old home stirs the imagination. I’d the difficulty as on the “high end of moderate”, but all agreed it was well worth the effort. The higher altitude makes it a nice candidate for warmer weather. My only caution would to NOT do it soon after rain, as the treacherous road to the trailhead would have impassably slippery spots, and you’d need to back up MILES in some cases to turn around with most vehicles.
Here are some more shots taken around the area.

I will add this one to the hike menu. I had planned to do that, but the area was closed for a year or two. I think it deserves to make the list.
These trees look like vulters should be sitting in them watching you all walking around.
Us old coots are too tough for the buzzards to bother with us.
The item hanging on the cabin wall is a tree branch trimmer. It would required for trimming an orchard.
Look closer, Bob. It’s not a branch trimmer.
Hiked to tony cabin today Nov 03 2013 Sunday. Went in on trail # 203. As usual seen only about four people on the trail. Two of them were hunting deer, had three mules with them. Heard they seen bear tracks. And,seen a mountain lion. Thank goodness we did not. No water in the creek. But still had the springs for the dogs to cool off in. On the way out right after we passed the cattle pen, we seen about 5 or 6 Cootimundis. Pretty cool, never seen them before. All in all it was a kick your butt hike. This was our fourth visit to this place. Beautiful. Eve and Donna and Charlie and Bugsy dogs.
You can only hike the established trail which crosses the property. You may not enter the cabin, etc.<issue_start><issue_comment>Title: Corret library misnaming: highlight.js
username_0: The correct name for our project is `highlight.js`.  It doesn't help
that long ago there was a `highlightjs` on NPM as well (we've since
deprecated it).  Sadly, DefinitelyTyped has deprecated the WRONG
library... `highlight.js` was deprecated when `highlightjs` should have
been.

This simply renames the folder, but I'm not sure what else might need to
be done here to set things back right again, but someone please let me
know and
