Meet the Team Dia L. Michels Founder and Publisher Dia L. Michels founded Science Naturally in 2006.

May 5, 2019 Literary Hill BookFest Washington, DC The Literary Hill BookFest began as a way of turning the Literary Hill column that Karen Lyon writes for the Hill Rag into a live event. Karen’s column showcases local writers and, after more than a decade of monthly columns, it was clear that Capitol Hill seems to have an almost limitless supply. What if we could bring together some of these authors who live on or write about Capitol Hill to meet their readers, as well as each other? Thus was born the 2011 Literary Hill BookFest. Everybody liked it so much that they encouraged us to do it again, and now we’re gearing up for another year. Also represented at the BookFest are the Hill’s booksellers, libraries, publishers, and other organizations with a focus on books. Our ultimate goal is to make Capitol Hill a respected center for literacy and the humanities in the metropolitan D.C. area. And we’re well on our way. Our first BookFest attracted more than a thousand visitors; last year, an estimated 1,500 people came to Eastern Market to meet our local writers and learn more about literary services in our area. Please join us this year and make it our best BookFest ever!

These therapeutic robots have been in use in Japan and throughout Europe since 2003. It mimics the comforts of a therapy animal in places and contexts where real animals are not welcome, such as hospitals, nursing homes, and around patients with allergies. By interaction with this animatronic and artificially intelligent cuddly creature, people's memories of pet animals or cherished stuffed animals are triggered, helping patients feel amused, relaxed, and motivated. Here, Science Naturally president and founder Dia Michels poses with a PARO representative and a PARO baby harp seal therapeutic robot.

Helados de frío —No puedo creer que mi madre me hizo usar este abrigo pesado —se quejaba Paige mientras caminaba a la escuela con sus amigas una mañana. —Mi madre es igual —dijo Tyra, chapoteando en un charco con sus botas impermeables. —Oigan, esperen un momento —dijo Lin, recogiendo el sombrero que se le había volado de la cabeza—. ¿Sus madres estaban escuchando esa estación de radio nueva que toca las canciones viejas que le gustan a los padres? —¡Sí! —dijo Paige—. ¡No puedo creer la música que tocan! —¡Algunas de esas canciones deben tener 20 años! —añadió Tyra. —Estaba puesta en nuestra casa también —dijo Lin—. Escuché al locutor decír que se sentiría como -4 grados Celsius esta mañana y fue entonces que mi mamá me entregó estos guantes. —¿Y qué? —preguntó Paige. —Entiendo lo que quiere decir Lin —dijo Tyra, saltando de charco en charco—. A -4 grados Celsius el agua estaría congelada. El agua se congela a 0 grados Celsius o menos. —Creo que nuestros padres debieran empezar a escuchar otra estación de radio —dijo Lin. —No creo que eso ayude —dijo Paige. —¿Por qué no? La gente de esa estación claramente no sabe nada del tiempo ni de la música —dijo Tyra. REVELAR RESPUESTA

Can you solve this month's mystery? —Feliz cumpleaños a ti —cantaban las amigas de Samara en la cafetería mientras ella se ponía colorada de la vergüenza.  Esa mañana Samara había traído magdalenas de su casa, y ahora le estaba dando las que quedaban a las niñas con quien almorzaba todos los días, Natalia y Viol Abril Seleccionado de: One Minute Mysteries: More Short Mysteries You Solve With Science! • Misterios de un minuto: ¡Más misterios cortos que resuelves con ciencias! Vete a caminar Los estudiantes estaban felices con el clima el día de la excursión. Había llovido todo el día y la noche anterior, pero esta mañana solo estaba fresco y nublado mientras los niños caminaban hacia el Centro de Visitantes. La clase estaba estudiando distintos ecosistemas, y había tomado un autobús a un parque con un prado, un estanque y bosques. Estaban divididos en tres grupos para buscar muestras y tomar fotos. Tenían radio-teléfonos para mantenerse en contacto, porque los teléfonos celulares no funcionaban allí. Un grupo tomó un sendero largo y empinado para llegar al Estanque del Sapo con el Sr. Wysor. El grupo de Marcel y Tucker cruzó hacia la pradera con la Sra. Smith, mientras que el tercer grupo se encargó de estudiar el bosque en una ladera con la Sra. Hammerick. Después de más o menos una hora, el grupo de la Sra. Smith había terminado. Regresó al Centro de Visitantes, pero ninguno de los otros grupos había regresado. La Sra. Smith le pidió a Marcel que verificara cómo estaban los demás. —Terminamos en el prado y podemos irnos en cualquier momento. ¿Cómo están ustedes? Cambio —dijo por el radio-teléfono. —Tenemos nuestras muestras y estamos tomando las últimas fotos. Caminaremos de regreso en un par de minutos. Cambio- —respondió una voz. —Estamos tomando muestras, pero hay tanta neblina aquí que las fotos no saldrán. Dennos otros 20 minutos. Tal vez la niebla se levante. Cambio —respondió otra voz. —No reconocí esas voces. ¿Cuál grupo necesita más tiempo? —le preguntó Tucker a Marcel. REVELAR RESPUESTA
