It's a Micro World after all is a blog dedicated to discussing pretty much whatever I feel like. When I delve into scientific matters it will primarily be discussing microbiology (agricultural, bioenergy, and environmental focus). Otherwise, I'll probably ramble on about sports and life.
My posts are presented as opinion and commentary and do not represent the views of LabSpaces Productions, LLC, my employer, or my educational institution.
Please wait while my tweets load

Ok folks, I've thrown my hat in the ring and set up my Donor's Choose page a couple of days ahead of schedule (officially starts on 10/10/10). That means, of course, that we have a couple of extra days to raise money. I've got seven projects listed on my donor page, a few of which are very close to being completed. Let's try to get those knocked out folks, and then we can progress to the larger projects. I have a widget to my project on the right hand side (you may need to scroll down a bit) if you want easy access to my chosen projects. Give early, give often folks.
ETA: HP is going to match all donations up to a total of 50K. Kudos to them.

Thanks for encouraging others to be excited about learning and science. I am a kindergarten teacher and I love science! I think it often gets overlooked but there are so many great things to learn, observe, and experience in this world. Feel free to check out my science project too. It’s almost expired, but I’m not throwing in the towel yet. 
http://www.donorschoose.org/mrsradke. Check out Jr. Scientists and thanks for doing your part in helping us to teach the next generation! Blessings!
You are my hero! Thanks!
Also, did you know that tomorrow for 10-10-10 there is a donor that is matching donations when you go to a teacher's page and donate from there? For example, if you go to my teacher page via www.donorschoose.org/mrsradke and give from there, the amount is doubled. So, if you give $5, DC will give me $10. That's awesome!
So, all you great people with donating hearts, pick a great project, give tomorrow and it will count as double. Whoo hoo!
We couldn't do it without you!!
Crystal,
I'm doing my best to get your projects funded. I saw you have one down, and one to go! $200 in 3 days, should be doable for sure!
Tom
