This monumental structure with glass ceilings is bordered by a beautiful garden. The works are just as striking as the building itself.

Over the past 25 years SNV has supported a biogas programme that grew from an initiative with a single manufacturer in Nepal to a sector that quickly spread across Asia, benefitting some 1.85 million people by 2009. In the years that have followed, replication of the many lessons learned across Asia led to successful biogas programmes in Africa, and in 2014 we reached the milestone of having installed 600,000 biodigesters.
Improving livelihoods is a central focus of the biogas programme. The 600,000 biodigesters installed, allowing the sanitary disposal of both human and animal waste, have vastly improved hygiene and living environments, while providing lighting and cleaner cooking facilities for 3 million people. They have seriously reduced workloads for women, allowing them to earn much needed extra income, and have shifted children's daily occupation from hours of wood collection to getting an education.
Biogas plants convert animal manure and human excrement into valuable energy. At household level, small amounts of combustible methane gas are used for cooking and for lighting. A family keeping just three heads of cattle or six pigs can generate sufficient gas to meet their basic cooking and lighting needs and use the residue of the process, bio-slurry, as a potent organic fertiliser to enhance agricultural productivity.
Beyond the domestic sphere, biogas is a valuable resource for businesses and SMEs. It provides them with a combination of waste management, nutrient recycling, and renewable energy services that target the 'missing middle': those smallholders and other SME's that fall between microfinance and conventional commercial financing. In doing so, the technological, social and economic gaps between domestic and industrial biogas are bridged, and the reliance on donor funding is broken as project sustainability is guaranteed.
Already, collaborative projects have seen agricultural communities and businesses benefit from biogas as a source of energy for agricultural processing. In Honduras, the 580 members of a coffee farming cooperative are reaping the rewards of better processing and the reduced impact on the environment ensures their status as an environmentally responsible business.
There is a growing demand to scale up projects to entire communities by giving them access to the surplus electricity generated by local businesses: for an isolated village in Peru, the SNV-supported BioSynergy project is harnessing the waste produced by a cattle herd to power an electrical mini-grid that provides street lighting and energy for 42 homes.

Public Toilets
Why do some public toilets have "toilet lids" I do not want to lift it up or put it down to flush the toilet.
Also, while I am complaining about public toilets, why do some place the toilet paper dispenser down so low, put it up high so I don't have to bend over.
I'd guess any with a lid are simply residential units installed to save money. I agree about the dispenser but I suspect that the explanation is twofold: 1) (Since it's "insulting" to say "short" now,) the "vertically challenged" want it low; and 2) it probably saves them, or is perceived to save money that people will take less paper if it's close to the floor.
Just a couple guesses.
I do not care about where the TP is, I get grumpy when there is no hook to hang my purse or pkgs. OH and better ventalation, phew! When the KOHLs by me opened the manager and I had several back and forth emails about both of those complaints;( Took awhile but he got with it.
Yes, I want toilet paper in the zone reachable by anyone sitting on the toilet -- that's the same whether you're short or tall.
No lids on public toilets.
I'm also with YogaLady about somewhere to put a handbag or package -- a hook or shelf.
Hmm, I've never run across a public toilet with a lid. I hate the low tp, too. Here's what I hate most -- self flushing toilets that don't work and don't have a button to push if it doesn't flush itself. I have the worst luck with those motion controlled flushers. I am usually in the stall jumping up and down and waving my hands around trying to get the darn thing to flush. I had to use a public toilet at the mall and every single toilet wasn't flushed!! I had to leave and find another.
Here's a toilet I saw in france. After you use it, it rewraps itself with plastic wrap so your bum never touches the seat.
I have the same complaints! If I have to stand on my head to reach the TP, it's installed too low. Oh, and dispensers that are out of reach in the handicapped stall. Like at our local K-Mart store.
I solved the problem of nowhere to hang my purse/coat. I bought an small single over the door hook to carry in my purse. I used it just Saturday! It sure came in handy.
There was an article several days ago about the automatic plastic wrap on toilet seats. Seems that toilet water gets splashed on them when they are wrapping the seat - very unsanitary.
Tami, thanks for the idea of bringing your own hook for your purse! I have a handbag holder that you can hang your purse on at restaurant tables that would work in a stall, too.
I'm just happy when they HAVE toilet paper. It's not often that I find one that's out of paper but . . . . I usually check before I enter.
I also hate when they don't have paper towels. Target has the lowest toilets! I feel like I'm at an elementary school. I usually go in the handicap stalls anyway because of my knees. The handicap stall is higher and has grab bars. They don't have paper towels (Yes, I understand why) but the hand blowers are SO LOUD!
If I remember correctly. the hooks on the doors were removed quite a while ago because it was found that thieves had learned to just reach over the door, from the outside, and lift a purse over the top. You would think though that while the store was removing the hook, they could have put one some where lower down.
What bugs me about TP is that it is so often hard to get it started out of the holder, or as in just yesterday, a roll of TP was on top of the grab bar, almost unreachable, and almost empty.
Just yesterday I hooked my cane over the end of the grab bar, and forgot it on the way out. NOT their fault. I have my name on it. Hope somebody turns it in.
The one here at the library is automatic.
When you put the lid down ... it flushes.
Some of you should visit Tokyo.
They have a long, oval porcelain container ...
... with the edge rising about 4 - 6 " off of the floor.
With foot pads on either side on which to place your feet.
And you squat.
(At least, it used to be that way, in a number of locations).
My (current) knees would complain - loudly.
ole joyful
Dorothy, you are welcome. I have the purse hangers for the table also, but mine won't work on a stall door.
Joann_fl, I tried the S hooks, but had no luck with it.
Sue, unless they've been removed for other reasons, and not replaced, we still have them here. Sometimes they are even on a side wall, or half way down the door, where they can't be reached over the door. Hope you get your cane back.
Ed, my knees wouldn't take the torture of that one! I can't squat at all anymore.
Don't hook your purses over the door. It's an easy grab for a criminal. That's why you'll see hooks closer to the seat and/or lower on the door nowadays.
Here is a link that might be useful: Snopes article contending removed hooks is real
In The Netherlands, most public toilet stalls are like small toilet rooms. The walls go floor to ceiling and the door shuts tight. Complete privacy. I try to avoid public toilets. And I keep my purse on me. Or if there is a toilet tank, I will set it on there.

2007 bmw x5 vs. lexus gx 470
We're considering either a 2007 BMW X5 or a Lexus GX470 as our next vehicle to replace our Lexus LX470 when the lease is out. Although I love this car and would purchase it in a minute (only 29,000 miles and in great condition) we have to lease for business reasons. But this time we'll probably purchase it when the lease is up.
Does anyone have any opinions that might help us decide? We live near Philly and have a get away spot in the mountains and frequently transport 2 large, hairy dogs. The Lexus is a known commodity to us -reliable, roomy and very similar to what we now drive, but it's going to be redesigned in another year.
The BMW might be more fun to drive but since BMW is touting it as "all new, second generation" there aren't any reviews. And I don't know anything about run flat tires. The salesman told us they can't be repaired but must be replaced if they get a nail and go flat. So if you have some miles on the vehicle and have to replace one, don't you then have to replace at least 2? That could get expensive.
I'd appreciate any opinions from forum members.
That's weird - I had caps in the subject heading but when I posted somehow the BMW changed to bmw. Odd. And when I previewed this post the same thing happened. What's the trick?
And I should have been more clear - we can't purchase our current LX 470 - but we will probably purchase which ever car we replace it with - in 3 years when the lease is up.
Thanks again
If you're going to purchase and drive out of warranty be advised Beemers are typically outrageously expensive to repair, things like replacing a battery has been known to cost $1000. in some of their sedans.
Lexus/Toyota is synonymous with quality and being able to drive them forever with no serious repairs usually. I wouldn't be swayed by promises of better performance or what have you then again reliability and quality is of more importance to me.
Thanks for your comment. I hadn't considered out of warranty repairs. The company I work for provides us with a new car every three years so I haven't had to deal with any out of pocket repairs for 9 years. And we have only leased Toyota/Lexus vehicles - a 4 Runner, a Sequoia and this Lexus.
Your comment reminds me of my Chevy Suburban days in the 1980's when it seemed like all I ever did was pay money to the Chevy dealership. But I'll be retiring in 2 years and providing my new car isn't a lemon we will either assume the lease payments or opt for an outright purchase at that time of whatever car I get next month.
Thanks again for the opinion.
things like replacing a battery has been known to cost $1000. in some of their sedans.
Cite? I won't argue that fixing a BMW can be expensive. But a grand to replace a battery? That strains the imagination. I'd be really interested to see a link that has the whole story on that one. If there is a reference.

Latest Gravitational microlensing Stories
Our view of other solar systems just got a little more familiar, with the discovery of a planet 25,000 light-years away that resembles our own Uranus.
Astronomers have located a new terrestrial planet in a binary star system located roughly 3,000 light-years from Earth, according to new research appearing in the July 4 edition of the journal Science.
Researchers searching for planets orbiting around a distant star look for a signature dimming of that star's light, but what if the distant star suddenly gets a bit brighter?
Titan, Europa, Io and Phobos are just a few members of our solar system's pantheon of moons. Are there are other moons out there, orbiting planets beyond our sun?
Astronomers said at a Royal Astronomical Society Meeting in St Andrews, Scotland on Monday that they have found a new way to map out quasars.
Besides our own Sun, the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri is the nearest star to Earth. As such, astronomers have sought to determine if planets orbit the tiny object.
Researchers at The University of Auckland wrote in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society that they have a new method that could lead to the discovery of 100 billion earth-like planets.
Astronomers using simulations were able to catch the Large Magellanic Cloud in the act of stealing stars away from its neighbor, the Small Magellanic Cloud.
An international team, including three astronomers from the European Southern Observatory (ESO), has used the technique of gravitational microlensing to measure how common planets are in the Milky Way.

Getting Climate Smart
A Water Preparedness Guide for State Action
With raging wildfires, widespread drought, historic floods, freak snowstorms and heat waves wreaking havoc in recent years, the climate change debate increasingly has become a deliberation over how to best reduce carbon pollution and deal with the climate impacts already here and those that are coming.
As climate change continues to alter historical temperature and precipitation patterns, it is critical that states develop comprehensive plans to address its challenges. Many states have conducted some level of planning to reduce the carbon pollution that contributes to climate change, yet others resist responsibly dealing with climate vulnerabilities. Shockingly, only 10 states have thus far developed comprehensive climate change preparedness plans. As those forced from their homes by extreme weather can attest, the time to prepare for climate change has come.
NRDC's Getting Climate Smart: A Water Preparedness Guide for State Action is a guide to assist water managers and state governments as they ready themselves for wide-ranging changes for their communities and ecosystems. Getting Climate Smart mixes practical guidance, planning tools, case studies and a holistic toolbox of strategies covering everything from agriculture, to energy, to public health and infrastructure. By following these steps, states can better prepare for future climate variability and better position themselves to tackle the inevitable challenges of a changing climate.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Billionaire visionary, Elon Musk, is set to announce his "hyperloop" scheme today, a plan that would allegedly shuttle passengers between cities faster than the speed of sound via tubes. The first hyperloop could be built between Los Angeles and San Francisco.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
8/12/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in Technology
Keywords: Elon Musk, hyperloop, high speed, train, California, Los Angeles, San Francisco, challenges, open source
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Until today, Musk has been mum on what exactly the hyperloop is. However, he has dropped enough hints that clever followers have discerned how the system will probably work.
Musk describes the system as "A cross between a Concorde and a railgun and an air hockey table."
Others describe it as a system of vacuum tubes similar to the ones used in banks and large buildings to transport money and small items from room to room.
According to Musk, the system would be able to transport a person between Los Angeles and San Francisco within 30 minutes.
Musk's idea came as he felt dissatisfied with California's high speed rail project, often criticized as the "bullet train to nowhere." Currently, the California bullet train is set to cost nearly $70 billion and will take 15 years to build. More than likely, both of those numbers will increase.
The train is designed to link San Francisco to Los Angeles via a route through the massive San Joaquin valley. California conservatives have decried the cost of the project and the low speeds of the trains that will be required to make the myriad stops along the route. The train will also have to pass through the Tehachapi Mountains, which will slow it further. It may also cut through several towns requiring the demolishing of homes and businesses.
All this has jaded many who initially thought the train would bring progress to California and make travel between the two major cities more practical. Currently, a trip between the two cities takes about 8 hours by car, and while flight time is about 30 minutes, it's expensive and takes time boarding and departing.
Enter Musk with the idea of a hyperloop and the promise of 30 minute travel between the two points, not to mention lower cost. In fact, the transport may cost less than a train ticket.
What has been divined so far, is that trains, or vehicles, will move through tubes that will be near-vacuums. Using magnets for propulsion, the vehicles will speed through the tubes faster than the speed of sound. Musk envisions frequent departures and expansion to further destinations.
The hyperloop could become a "fifth mode of travel" according to Musk.
The best part of the concept is that it can be built with existing technology.
Musk has pledged to make the idea and its plans open source, which means he will publish the plans for his design as well as other ideas, and welcome public development on the idea. He says that his work schedule between SpaceX and Tesla prevents him from promoting the idea himself. However, other entrepreneurs, aided by designs and ideas contributed by the public, might be able to make the system a reality.
Of course, once the designs are perfected, it will be another challenge to plan the route and construct the hyperloop. For that part of the project, planners could consult with veterans of the high speed rail project in California - they have certainly learned that bringing concept to reality is fraught with far more challenges than one can imagine, and the technical ones are the easiest to solve.
Politics is another matter.

Wigan Athletic boss Steve Bruce is ready to field new signing Marlon King tonight against Middlesbrough.
"I always say that you're only as good as your strikers," he said. "Your strikers are what win you a match, keep you in a division or win you a cup - that's why they cost the most money.
"Probably the reason I'm in the chair instead of poor Chris Hutchings is because he lost Emile Heskey for two or three months, and if a club like Wigan loses a big player like that, they're hard to replace.
"If that situation does arise again we've got someone like Marlon King in the building and that helps.
"I didn't think Aidy (Boothroyd) would let him out with Watford sitting second in the Championship but I hope he can come in and do what he's done for them, which is score a lot of goals.
"I have to protect the boy too from this nonsense coming out of Fulham about medicals," Bruce added.
"We all know he hurt his knee 18 months ago but as far as we're concerned, he's perfectly OK."

For import to the USA, customers need a permit from the USDA before ordering and the USDA is not currently allowing any live snails to be imported. There are similar prohibitions on export to many other countries outside Europe.
When you serve cooked snails in garlic and herb butter, it is common practice to take them to the table in sterile presentation shells rather than their own shells. This is because their own shells may become damaged and will vary in size and colour. These attractive presentation shells are from Helix pomatia and graded according to size. They are sold by the dozen.

We had a wonderful stay during Thanksgiving weekend while visiting my family in Parkersburg. Wonderful staff, a beautiful and specially decorated display of Christmas trees in the lobby, and amazing menu and wine list in the restaurant.
It was great
It was a convenient location, just off the interstate. We were impressed by the overall cleanliness and upkeep of rooms and public areas as well. Price was great too!
Everything about our stay was reminiscent of a much 'nicer' (read: more expensive) hotel. The room was meticulously clean and put together. Even the front desk who greeted us upon our 2:00am arrival was first-rate.
The location was great. Check in easy. 12:00 check out time fantastic. Bed soft and comfy.
Hair in bed and bathroom. Got bit thru the night. Front desk staff seemed like it was a burden to bring me the remote missing from my room. Didn't like being around back on the 2nd floor as being a female traveling alone.
Friendly staff at an average hotel. The room was clean.
My wife found a towel that had dust or dirt on it, but other than that, everything was OK. Nothing was outstanding, but nothing was bad.
Nothing,it was located in a bad neighbothood
Everthing, there were signs everywhere stating to lock everything up. Felt very unsafe. I ended up having to get a different hotel. There were people outside smoking crack or cocaine, drinking and very loud. Was not a safe place for two female travelers.
The hotel was close to where I needed to be on Sunday. I liked being on the first floor.
The staff was rude. The lady at the counter yelled at me when I told her I'd made a reservation and told me I did not. She was rude even after I gave her my confermation no. The carpet was nasty and stained. The bathtub was black with greasy soap scum.
Only positive is wifi
Breakfast sucked and had cold coffee. The people avove us partied clear i to the early morning hours making sleep terrible even after calling front desk and complaining. I wit essed staff clraning trash out of rooms while smoking. I found finger nail clipings on the counter in the bathroom....they werent ours, a broken jacuzzi in a jacuzzi room and weak spots all over th floor. Terrible place to stay.
Easy access to the interstate and training center
The hotel was dated and had mold in the bathroom. The heater made noise all night if it was on. The breakfast was non-existing. Spend the extra $10 and stay somewhere else.
The pool area was nice
The beds were very uncomfortable, didn't sleep well.
The atmosphere and river theme met our expectations.
Room slightly to hot. But we cracked window.
Growing up in Marietta I never had the privilege of staying at places like the Lafayette. It was great to be able to stay there for a couple nights. The rooms and the entire building are beautifully history. We also ate breakfast and had great service!
I personally didn't mind, but the rooms are really small and the bathrooms even smaller. I enjoyed it because of the great historic feeling.
Comfort of bed.
Moldy coffe maker. Motel is beaten and needs updating painting etc. Paid more than twice as much as some much nicer places we've stayed.
The hotel was clean, staff helpful and nice to deal with.
It was affordable.
My significant other and I booked the room, and was booked elsewhere by a friend. We didn't even stay the night and wasn't given a refund!
Not that clean. Stains on blanket. Tv didnt work. No hair dryer or coffeemaker and no vending machines at all. Never would have staye
easy access. room quiet
breakfast offering very so-so. don't like the first floor
This motel was very clean and had a very helpful and pleasant staff who were very accommodating in every way.
They did have kids running up and down the hallways that made it noisy for a couple of the rooms
Nice place!
Great, helpful staff
Had to leave for fitness center
Rooms were cleaned looks like they had been remodeled
The security guard wa asleep at 1030pm n a chair in the lobby an at 7am was still asleep n the same chair. The am breakfast was lacking: no coffee minimal variety. No elevator.
Here's why:

Ndebele visit and Rotary meeting
Today we had drove to the village of the Ndebele people. First we visited the home of Esther Mahlungu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esther_Ma hlangu). She is the most prominent artist behind the colorful traditional work of the Ndebele people. She showed us how she uses feathers to do her paintings. We then went on to the home of one of the queens of the Ndebele tribe, Nomsa Daphane – she hosted us for a delicious (vegan!) lunch ...
On our way at last
... gift of dried fruit, Fi. We left on the dot of 7 am as scheduled. A wonderful rainbow filled the southern sky, giving promise of a great adventure. A good days travel and now safely ensconced in a three bedroom chalet at Loskop enjoying the Roodeberg red wine courtesy of Paul and Nan - thank you!! We can't wait to sleep under canvas tomorrow ...
Joburg and Pretoria... not all its hyped up to be
... rifles hanging out next to it. Welcome to Johannesburg! We parked the car, walked up and down checking out the places to drink, chose a spot and went upstairs to its balcony bar. There was a rugby game on and a huge group of people singing and yelling at the TV, and we settled in with a trio of tequila shots and ordered 3 jugs of cocktails. Before long we were joined by two of Cams friends who ordered more cocktails and we all hung out there for a few hours.
Colonial Guest House
... the first hour we have seen, buffalo, elephant, giraffe. lots of impala, kudu, waterbuck, duicker - the river out east of Skukawa is beautiful, there is a pack off lions on the other bank, lots of hippos and crocs up out of the water as its overcast and cool. We have to be on the road for the 3 hour drive back to Middelberg, so it's a choice to go into the Malalene gate on the way out.... yes ...
De Wilts Cheetah Park
... up carcasses, but now people don't want to see these carcasses lying around so they remove them, removing then vultures source of food. Vulture kitchens are now being set up farms. When a rhino or elephant has been slaughtered by poachers for its horns/ tusks, vultures start circling which give away the killing to the game rangers so the poachers put poison down to kill the vultures. It is so sad how many rhino has been slaughtered for their horns and sent to China ...

Lack of capital funds for NYC transit a concern
Charles Seaton, a spokesman for New York City Transit, the MTA agency that runs city subways and buses, said the lifespan of a subway car is 40 years but some cars still in service are pushing 45.
Those cars are clunkers compared to the newest in the fleet, the R160 cars with high-tech features like a liquid crystal display screen that constantly updates riders about the train's progress. The MTA has ordered 1,662 of them for $2.87 billion.
Equally striking is the contrast between just-renovated stations and dreary ones that are overdue for a makeover.
Renovated Bronx stations on the 2, 4 and 5 lines have stained glass windows worthy of Tiffany. The $527 million South Ferry station that opened in March at the tip of Manhattan features "See It Split, See It Change," a $1 million-plus art installation with silhouettes of trees and a mosaic map of Manhattan.
The electronic signs that tell riders how long their wait will be are so far only on the L line that runs from the West side of Manhattan at 14th Street through Brooklyn.
The future of that and other projects will depend on the MTA's ability to secure funding for them in a still shaky economy.
"It's very hard to plan without knowing how much capital resources you're going to have in the future," said Richard Ravitch, the former MTA chairman who headed a panel that drafted an earlier version of the bailout plan. "Over the long term without adequate investment the system starts down the slippery slope again."

Method and system for providing a dynamically reconfigurable display having nanometer-scale resolution, using a patterned array of multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) clusters. A diode, phosphor or other light source on each MWCNT cluster is independently activated, and different color light sources (e.g., red, green, blue, grey scale, infrared) can be mixed if desired. Resolution is estimated to be 40-100 nm, and reconfiguration time for each MWCNT cluster is no greater than one microsecond.
1. A reconfigurable display system comprising:
at least first, second and third spaced apart under-layers, deposited on a surface of a substrate, each under-layer having a selected thickness and including at least one of Al and Ir, where the under-layers form a selected pattern;
at least first, second and third spaced apart catalyst layers, deposited on the at least first, second and third under-layers, respectively, each catalyst layer having a selected thickness and including at least one of Fe, Ni, Co, Mo and Ti;
an electrically insulating layer, deposited in an interstitial region between each pair of the at least first, second and third catalyst layers or between each pair of the at least first, second and third under-layers;
at least first, second and third clusters of one or more multi-wall carbon nanotubes (�MWCNTs�) grown on the at least first, second and third catalyst layers, respectively, where each MWCNT has a light emitting component connected thereto that is spaced apart from the at least first, second and third catalyst layers; and
at least first and second transversely oriented electrical lines, connecting the first and second MWCNT clusters, and connecting the second and third MWCNT clusters, respectively, with the first and second electrical lines being connected to first and second activatable electrical signal sources, respectively, of at least one of ) an electrical current having a selected current value and i) a voltage difference having a selected voltage difference value, where provision of an electrical signal from the first electrical signal source alone, or from the second electrical signal source alone, is insufficient to fully activate the light emitting component connected to the second MWCNT cluster, and where provision of electrical signals from the first and second electrical signal sources at the same time is sufficient to fully activate the light emitting component connected to the second MWCNT cluster.

This invention was made, in part, by one or more employees of the U.S. government. The U.S. government has the right to make, use and/or sell the invention described herein without payment of compensation therefor, including but not limited to payment of royalties.
This invention relates to us of patterned carbon nanotube arrays to produce light of different wavelengths for display purposes.
Multi-colored electronic displays that are dynamically reconfigurable require substantial electrical power and are limited in the amount of fine detail provided, by the physical size of the light sources. For example, where phosphor elements are used, as in a television screen or computer monitor, the pixel size is generally no smaller than about 0.1 mm. This limits the resolution available, where much finer work is desired.
What is needed is a multi-color display system that can provide individual pixel contributions as small as 20-40 nm in diameter, that can be dynamically reconfigured in pattern and in color rendition, that has relatively low power consumption, and that can provide a frame rate comparable to that of a conventional television display system.
These needs are met by the invention, which provides a dynamically reconfigurable, multi-color display system using a grid of optionally patterned carbon nanotube (�CNT�) arrays that are connected to a plurality of individually controlled voltage or current sources (�electrical sources�). In a simplest embodiment, a rectangular array of clustered CNTs, preferably multi-wall CNTs (�MWCNTs�) is patterned on a substrate, using certain patterning techniques. A rectangular grid of crossed electrical control lines is provided, with each MWCNT cluster ncluding, but not limited to, a single MWCNT) being connected to two or more crossed control lines. Each MWCNT cluster includes one or more of a diode or electroluminescent phosphor (e.g., Cu-activated or Mn-activated ZnS or Ce-activated SrS) or other electrically activatable light source (�EALS�), and each individual electrical line provides no more than about one half the electrical power required to activate an EALS. That is, delivery of power from a single electrical line (only) will not activate the EALS, but delivery of power from at least a threshold number (two or more) of the crossed electrical lines at a single MWCNT cluster will activate the EALS. Optionally, an MWCNT cluster may include first, second and third isolated MWCNTs, each with an EALS that provides a different color (e.g., red, green and blue) when fully activated, and each of the first, second and third MWCNTs is connected to a different pair of crossed electrical lines.
The different crossed pairs of lines can be activated independently to activate the corresponding EALS, analogous to activation of different red, green and blue phosphor dots associated with a television screen or a computer color monitor screen. Alternatively, the EALS can be chosen and configured to provide a spectrum of grey scale light sources with N different basic grey scale values so that up to 2N black, white and intermediate grey scale hues can be generated at a single cluster.
When each of two crossed electrical lines in the grid 15 is activated by the appropriate sources 19, each line contributes a selected current increment ΔI or a selected voltage increment ΔV (referred to collectively herein as a �power increment ΔP�) to the corresponding MWCNT cluster 17(i 0,j 0), and each of these increments is received the corresponding EALS 18(i 0,j 0).
Thus, activation of an electrical source 19 for each of these two crossed electrical lines will produce light having a discernible color at the MWCNT cluster location 17(i 0,j 0) and will not, by itself, produce light having a discernible color at any other MWCNT cluster. An electrical signal carried by an electrical line 15 will be received by all MWCNT clusters to which that line is connected through the catalyst underlayer 14(i,j); but this signal will is electrically insulated from direct interaction with the catalyst by interposition of one or more of the plurality of insulating patches 16.
In the crossed line configuration shown in
In an alternative approach, the electrical lines shown in
A third electrical line L3 crosses the lines L1 and L2, contacts a fifth MWCNT group H1, avoids contact with a sixth MWCNT group H2, contacts a seventh MWCNT group H3, avoids contact with an eighth MWCNT group H4, and so on until this line terminates. A fourth line L4 crosses the lines L1 and L2, avoids contact with the fifth group H1, contacts the sixth group H2, avoids contact with the seventh group H3, contacts the eighth group H4, and so on until this line terminates.
The lines L1 and L3 intersect at one or more MWCNTs 51 (L1,L3). The lines L1 and L4 intersect at one or more MWCNTs 52(L1,L4). The lines L2 and L3 do not intersect at one or more MWCNTs. The lines L2 and L4 intersect at one or more MWCNTs 53(L2,L4). Thus, one or more MWCNTs is not necessarily located at an intersection of two or more lines in the illustration in
The number of SWCNTs or MWCNTs that may be grown on a 20 nm�20 nm region on a catalyst layer has been estimated to be 1-4 in U.S. Pat. No. 6,858,197. Assuming, conservatively, that a single MWCNT is grown on such a region and that adjacent growth regions are also separated by about 20 nm, the number of light sources 19 that can be positioned on a 1 cm�1 cm macro-region is estimated to be about 2.5�105 in each of two substantially orthogonal directions, which is more than 3 orders of magnitude larger than an estimated number of conventional pixels, 40-120 per cm in any given direction, for a television screen or computer monitor screen. If three adjacent light sources (e.g., red, green and blue) are treated as a unit light source, the number of these light source units 19 is reduced to about 8�104 in a given direction, and this number of these light source units is still 2-3 orders of magnitude larger than the number of conventional pixels illuminated on a television screen or computer monitor screen.
Electrical power consumed for a display screen of size 40 cm�25 cm, based upon the invention, will depend upon the MWCNT density used. Assuming, for purposes of comparison, a density of 300�300 MWCNTs per �square� (1 cm2), an electrical resistance of 30 Ohm per MWCNT, a required current of 0.1 micro-Amp per MWCNT, and an activation of one-half of the light sources units, the power required is estimated to be 2.7�10−8 Watts/square, or 2.7�10−3 Watts/screen. If a MWCNT-electrical line connection has an average resistance of, say, R Ohms, this condition will increase the estimated power consumption by a factor of 1+(R/30), which is unlikely to larger than about 10.
The CNT-units may individually include one, two, three or more EALSs with one, two, three or more distinguishable colors, such as red, green and blue, so that substantially all colors in the visible spectrum can be generated. As a first alternative, part or all of the (activated) CNT-units may generate 2p grey scale �colors,� with p≧1 so that part or all of the image screen can be used to display grey scale images. As a second alternative, part or all of the (activated) CNT-units may generate an image with wavelengths in the infrared portion of the spectrum, where this image is viewed and/or interpreted by an electronic device that senses and distinguishes between different infrared wavelengths.
