1. Correction: New CSWA member
From: Patricia Knezek
[knezek

The name of one of the new CSWA members, Hannah Jang-Condell, was spelled
incorrectly in the AASWOMEN issue introducing them. I would like to
apologize for the error!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Interesting book for scientists, epecially those with families
From: Patricia Knezek [knezek
noao.edu]
I'd like to bring to people's attention the book "It's a Jungle Up There:
More Tales from the Treetops," Margaret D. Lowman, Edward Burgess, and
James Burgess (Yale, 2006). The author was a single parent, who took her
two sons long with her as she pursued her research in tree canopies around
the world. The book includes both her writings and essays by her two sons
about their experiences growing up in this unique way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. "To Recruit and Advance: Women Students and Faculty in Science and
Engineering"
From: WIPHYS of November 7, 2006
"Although more women than men participate in higher education in the United
States, the same is not true when it comes to pursuing careers in science
and engineering. "To Recruit and Advance: Women Students and Faculty in
Science and Engineering" identifies and discusses better practices for
recruitment, retention, and promotion for women scientists and engineers in
academia. Seeking to move beyond yet another catalog of challenges facing
the advancement of women in academic science and engineering, this book
describes actions actually taken by universities to improve the situation
for women." Available from the National Academies Press
http://newton.nap.edu/catalog/11624.html
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Two APS professional skills development workshops
From: WIPHYS of November 9, 2006
he American Physical Society will offer a one-day workshop for senior women
physicists in industry and government labs on March 4 (Denver) in association
with the 2007 APS annual meeting (deadline to apply is December 4).
NEW: We are pleased to announce that we will also offer a second workshop on
April 13 (Jacksonville, FL) prior to the APS meeting (deadline to apply is
January 12). This workshop will be limited to 15 participants, however it
will be identical in content and format to the March 4 workshop.
Both workshops will offer professional training on effective negotiation,
communication and leadership skills, as well as a special opportunity for
networking. Participants may receive a stipend of up to $800 towards hotel
and travel expenses. Details are now posted on the CSWP website at

ASTRONOMICAL SOFTWARE SCIENTIST - PRINCETON UNIVERSITY
The Department of Astrophysical Sciences, Princeton University, expects to
have one or more positions in the area of software development and support
for the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and testing of photometric and
spectroscopic data obtained by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, a
multi-institution project to carry out an imaging and redshift survey. A
dedicated telescope and camera measures the sky at five bands, u,g,r,i,
and z, using a large format CCD array, and spectra are obtained by a pair
of multi-fiber spectrographs. The data reduction is done by a series of
automated pipelines which calibrate and correct the data, find and measure
objects, and produce digital catalogues, images and spectra for science
analysis. We expect to carry out development, testing and support work in
the following areas: running the pipelines; efficient algorithms for object
measurement; quality analysis; co-addition of multiple imaging data;
comparison and subtraction of images from multiple passes across the sky;
automated searches for variable objects; algorithms to find rapidly varying
or fast moving objects; global photometric calibration; spectrophotometry;
and determination of stellar parameters (temperature, metalicity, spectral
type, gravity and radial velocity). Much of this work will be in support
of SDSS-II, whose science goals include the studies of large scale
cosmological structure, the kinematic and chemical structure and merger
history of the Milky Way galaxy, and the characterization of supernova
light curves in the range z=0.2 - 0.6.
We seek persons with knowledge of optical astronomy at faint levels, CCD
data, handling of large data sets, efficient automated data reduction,
image analysis, and stellar spectroscopic analysis. The job(s) include
algorithm development; evaluating the scientific performance of pipeline
code; writing robust, efficient code (primarily on Unix platforms in C);
and running and maintaining pipeline code. Experience in Python, C++ and
software engineering practices is desirable. The appointment(s) will be
made to the scientific or technical staff at a level and salary commensurate
with experience, for an initial period of one year which can be renewed
for one or more years depending on satisfactory performance and availability
of funding.
We seek persons with at least 5 years of experience with optical telescope
hardware and software and a PhD in astrophysics or a related field.
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, bibliography and statement of
research interests, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation
sent to the above address, by December 1, 2006. The application will also
be considered for other available positions.
The position(s) are expected to begin on Sept 1, 2007 and are advertised
subject to the availability of funding. Further information about the
SDSS is available via http://www.astro.princeton.edu or by email from

Please excuse the short notice. At Tennessee State University we are
advertising for 2 tenure track/tenured physics positions. Due to growth in
our Astronomy program, I have just managed to convince the head of the search
committee, that one of the positions should have someone qualified to teach
BOTH Physics and Astronomy.
Unfortunately the Deadline is 11/10/06. I believe that a completed web
application and a reference list is all that the candidate must submit by
then. Please check the website for exact details about references.
www.tnstate.edu
TSU is a Historically Black University and 2/3 of our students are women.
We are anxious to increase the diversity level of our Astronomy faculty. I
am the sole Astronomy instructor and a white male (We have 3 full time
researchers). Applications from minorities and/or women are thus desirable.
Please let people in your circle of connections about this position. I
really appreciate your help.
