The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Brown dwarfs are small and dim stars that glow feebly in the infrared and are very difficult to detect. A recently launched citizen science project, Backyard Worlds Cool Neighbors, enlists the public to help identify brown dwarfs from data taken by the NASA Wide Field Infrared Explorer (WISE) satellite. In this podcast, Aaron Meisner talks about this new project and how the public can help find these elusive brown dwarfs. Bios: Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and Engagement group at NSF's NOIRLab in Tucson, Arizona. Aaron Meisner is an astronomer at NSF's NOIRLab in Tucson affiliated with Kitt Peak National Observatory. Aaron works on Kitt Peak's Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) project, a newly installed spectrograph at the Mayall 4-meter telescope. He specializes in building astronomical maps using large data sets at visible and infrared wavelengths. These maps are used to search for moving celestial objects, like new neighbors to the Sun and hypothesized planets in the far reaches of our own solar system. To this end, Aaron co-founded the popular Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project and the Backyard Worlds: Cool Neighbors project. Austin Humphreys is a Banneker Key scholar and a rising senior at the University of Maryland, College Park working towards a dual degree in astronomy and physics. Working remotely from Maryland with the Backyard Worlds: Cool Neighbors team, he is an experienced coder having experience in both physics-based and astronomy-based research projects as a part of his undergraduate education, ranging from plasma physics simulations to photometric analysis of planetary nebulae. Prior to his college education, he had the opportunity to be an observational assistant at the Maryland Science Center's Crosby Ramsey Memorial Observatory for three years where he would operate and maintain an 8-inch refractor telescope for the public.

Since 2012, she has overseen the large-scale improvement and expansion projects at Dodger Stadium and Campo Las Palmas (the club’s home in the Dominican Republic). From modernizing the stadium to incorporating the club’s rich history into the ballpark experience, Smith’s fan-friendly touches have helped keep Dodger Stadium - the third-oldest ballpark in baseball - as one of the premier venues in all of sports. Her latest project, a $100 million renovation of centerfield and completed new circulation around Dodger Stadium was completed for the 2020 season and will be the focal point of the MLB All-Star Game slated to be held in Los Angeles in 2022. She is also working on the design and construction of Polar Park in Worcester, MA which will be the home of the Triple-A Worcester Red Sox in 2021. Smith is best known in the baseball world for her work on the influential Oriole Park at Camden Yards, saving Fenway Park and the renovations at Dodger Stadium. Smith worked for the Orioles from 1989-94 as vice president of planning and development during the design and construction of the park. Opening in 1992, Camden Yards immediately became the standard-bearer for a new wave of traditional baseball parks that have been built in subsequent years. Smith played an instrumental role in the design of the ballpark, creating a state-of-the-art unique facility that blends with the urban context of downtown Baltimore while taking inspiration from baseball parks built in the early 20th century. Its success spawned over 20 MLB parks to move into urban centers and created a new formula for fan-friendly areas in sports venues and establishing new thinking for how sports fit into cities and elevate design. Smith served as senior vice president of planning and development for the Boston Red Sox from 2002-2009. Smith oversaw the preservation of historic Fenway Park and led the program that placed this significant ballpark on the National Historic Register. Her work at Fenway Park earned her a Special Achievement Award from the Boston Baseball Writers’ Association in 2012. Additionally, the Boston Preservation Alliance nominated Fenway Park for the 2008 Sports Business Awards’ Sports Venue of the Year and awarded the ballpark a Special Commendation for Outstanding Stewardship at the 2005 Preservation Awards, recognizing the cultural and historic significance of the building, as well as the honorific nature of its renovations including the popular addition of seats on top of Fenway Park’s iconic “Green Monster.” Before joining the Dodgers, Smith had a second tour with the Orioles as vice president of planning and development from September 2009-August 2012. In that role, Smith directed renovations and expansion of the Orioles’ new spring training facility in Sarasota, Florida, as well as upgrades and enhancements to Oriole Park at Camden Yards to celebrate the park’s 20th anniversary including the popular roof deck on top of the batters eye in centerfield. From 1994-2000, Smith held the position of president of Turner Sports and Entertainment Development, a division of Turner Broadcasting System, and was the vice president of Planning and Development for the Atlanta Braves. Her work in Atlanta transformed the 1996 Olympic Stadium into Turner Field, home of the Braves, and she also oversaw the development of the Philips Arena, home of the NBA Atlanta Hawks and NHL Atlanta Thrashers. Smith has worked on urban development projects, including Battery Park City in New York City, where she served as coordinator of Architecture and Design, and Pershing Square—Downtown Los Angeles’s oldest park. Smith worked as senior advisor of planning and design with Baltimore-based Struever Bros. Eccles & Rouse on many of their development and rehab projects in the city of Baltimore, from Tide Point to Bond Street Wharf. She was responsible for concept planning for the Indianapolis basketball arena and the renovation of the Rose Bowl stadium in Pasadena, Calif. She was also part of the THINK team, one of the final two teams in the competition for the World Trade Center site in New York City in 2002. Smith’s work has been published extensively and she has spoken at the “Cooperstown Symposium on Baseball and American Culture” and the NINE conference in Arizona on several occasions. She gave the keynote address at both conferences in 2014, the same year that she was selected as a recipient of a Women of Inspiration Award from the LA chapter of Women in Sports & Events (WISE). In 2016, Smith was recognized by Maryland Daily Record’s Top 100 Circle of Excellence and was named Sports Business Journal’s “Power Player for Design and Development.” Sports Business Journal also honored Smith in 2011 in their inaugural class of “Game Changers: Women in Sports Business” and in their 2017 Class of Champions. In 2019, Smith was nominated for the Baseball Reliquary’s Shrine of the Eternals and SABR’s Dorothy Seymour Mills Lifetime Achievement Award for Women in Baseball. Smith delivered the commencement speech for Mississippi State University, her alma mater, in 2013 and University of Michigan’s School of Kinesiology in 2018. She was inducted into the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame in 2020. Smith was the Edward P. Bass Visiting Professor at Yale University School of Architecture in 2017. Smith holds a master’s degree in Urban Planning from City College of New York and a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Mississippi State University. She is an associate member of the Urban Land Institute, American Institute of Architects, and the American Planning Association. She serves on the advisory board for the University of Michigan Sports Management Program and is a former member of the board of directors of the engineering firm of Syska & Hennessy and the Berklee College of Music in Boston. She has served on the Board of Directors for Port Discovery, the Maryland Science Center, and the College of Notre Dame.

Today, a conversation about new breakthroughs in cancer research. Nearly 1.7 million people are diagnosed with cancer in the U.S every year, and nearly 600,000 of those people die from the disease. Those who survive often face difficult surgeries, and long rounds of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or costly immunotherapy. Cancer is one of the world’s leading killers because it’s usually discovered too late, after tumors have grown and spread to other parts of the body. If detected early enough, most cancers would be survivable. But until recently, there have been no reliable early-screening methods for the most aggressive forms of cancer. Now, a team of physicians at Johns Hopkins has devised a new kind of blood test that can screen for 8 different kinds of cancer. Taken together, those eight cancers account for more than 60 percent of cancer deaths in the United States each year. That team is led by one of Tom's guests today, Dr. Bert Vogelstein. He is the Clayton Professor of Oncology and Pathology, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator at The Johns Hopkins Medical School and the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center here in Baltimore. He’s a pioneer in the field of cancer genomics. His research papers have reportedly been cited more often than those of any other scientist, in any discipline.And joining us on the line from the studios of Kaiser Health News in Washington is Dr. Elisabeth Rosenthal. She’s a former emergency room physician. She spent 22 years covering health issues for the New York Times. She was appointed the editor and chief of Kaiser Health News in 2016. She’s also the author of American Sickness: How Healthcare Became Big Business and How You Can Take It Back, which was published exactly one year ago today. (Dr. Rosenthal spoke with Tom about her book on the Aug. 9, 2017 Midday, and you can listen to that conversation here.)Drs. Vogelstein and Rosenthal will be co-panelists again at the Maryland Science Center starting at 7pm on Tuesday, April 24th, in a talk entitled Truths, Myths and Breakthroughs in Medical and Cancer Research, part of this year’s Great Talk series.

Podcasts are great free tools that allow you to syndicate content for free over the internet. Wikipedia defines a podcast as “a series of audio or video digital media files which is distributed over the Internet by syndicated download, through Web feeds, to portable media players and personal computers.” Although podcasting has come to mean both audio and video files syndicated over the internet – video podcasting and its benefits are beyond the scope of this article. As we think about podcasting for business profits we need to keep in mind that this medium is a tool. A great tool for you to build a relationship with your customers because audio programming is a very personable medium. When we listen to talk radio, for example, we perceive the host to be talking directly to us. Audio seems more like a conversation than a broadcast. This can be useful to businesses and organizations in building a “voice” of the company. A person who regularly records audio content can become part of a listener’s daily or weekly routine and will eventually become a trusted source of information. This brings me to my next point. Podcasts beg to be helpful. What do I mean by this? Quite simply the best podcasts are the ones that add value to the listener’s life. For this reason podcasting in education is exploding. One of the biggest mistakes your business can make is to attempt to use this medium as a direct sales tool. Sales may be the final goal and how you will measure ROI, but it shouldn’t dominate the main message of the program. Let’s suppose you have a medium size printing company. Your ultimate goal is obviously to recruit businesses to to send your shop print work. You decide that you’d like to begin producing a weekly podcast. In the podcast you make a pitch for why your presses are the best in town. You ramble on and on about the quality and flexibility of your digital printing division. Your mouth keeps moving as you discuss the benefits of your in-house mailing department. Who cares? To be honest – no one does. And most likely no one will listen past the first minute. Now contrast this with the printing company that begins to produce a weekly podcast explaining the benefits of direct mail campaigns. These podcasts are helping the small business owner with his sales and marketing strategies. Each week your short and to the point podcast is packed full of tips and strategies the small business owner can use to gain more customers using print based materials. This owner will begin to see you as a trusted source of information and knowledge. And the next time he needs something printed he’s going to chose the company that added value to his business and life. Finally, audio podcasts don’t have to be difficult to produce. To begin, a simple USB microphone plugged directly into your computer can do the trick. The key is to add value to your customers and prospects. By adding value you will earn their trust ultimately leading to more sales. ======================= ABOUT FOLK MEDIA Folk Media is a new media studio that specializes in helping businesses produce, distribute, and promote online media like blogs, audio podcasts, video and Facebook fan pages that drive sales and promote your business on the Internet.

So exactly what is Twitter? Wikipedia describes Twitter as “a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows its users to send and read other users’ updates (otherwise known as tweets), which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length.” That’s a pretty good way to explain it. I think I would also add that it is more like a text based telephone than a micro-blog. Of course it is a telephone conversation that anyone can listen to. But I think this is the power of Twitter. And Twitter for business can be very powerful. Twitter gives you an opportunity to be transparent as a business allowing you to build a case for yourself or your company through dialogue. My experience with Twitter I thought Twitter was really stupid until I gave it a try. And then I still thought it was stupid. My problem was misunderstanding how it can be used as a tool for business and communications. But I’ve really changed my mind on this. And now Twitter has become indispensable to me and our business. The tipping point personally came when I was recently speaking at a conference in Las Vegas. If you’ve ever been to the Las Vegas Convention Center, you’ll appreciate the fact that even a smart guy like me was able to get lost. The building is a small city and navigation can at times be very difficult. In order to find my way around I pulled up Twitter on my cell phone and tweeted out a quick message asking for directions. Within moments I had an answer from a stranger who was following me and was able to easily find my way to the conference hall. The tipping point for my business came when clients began contacting me from seeing Tweets. I decided right then and there to begin taking this Twitter thing seriously and have developed some strategies for how we are using Twitter in our own company. Things your company can do with Twitter Twitter for business? Yes. While Twitter can be used for actual business communications, it is important to remember that this tool isn’t for everyone. It should be used wisely like any tool online. I would say that about 80% of businesses can use Twitter to: Listen to what people are talking about in your market or industryBreak news related to your industry or customersLink to insightful articles that will help your clientsOffer quick tips to help people with particular problemsConduct surveys to get instant feedbackSpread knowledge by re-tweeting other’s postsAsk for customer service feedback and engage those folks Twitter is one of the most interesting and fastest growing online applications for personal and business communications. Even if you decide Twitter isn’t for you, at least give it a try and do some experimentation. There are a lot of opportunities to harness Twitter for your business. ======================= ABOUT FOLK MEDIA Folk Media is a new media studio that specializes in helping businesses produce, distribute, and promote online media like blogs, audio podcasts, video and Facebook fan pages that drive sales and promote your business on the Internet.
