Boxers for Peace Syria 2019 video archiveOne way we remember events that are important to us is through video. Below is an archive of a dozen videos from our June/July trip to Syria. I have ordered the videos chronologically:
The end of the War on Syria!Credit where it is due – Donald Trump has done the right thing. He's withdrawing US troops from Syria, which effectively ends the war! Today I notice that the UAE is re-opening its Syrian embassy – a sign that things will now slowly return to normal. Mind you, the response in the US has been howls of protest from both sides of government! Apparently, there's no need for Congressional approval

Waldoboro residents voted 50-7 to establish a moratorium on recreational marijuana shops and social clubs during a special town meeting the morning of Saturday, Jan. 6.
Around 60 residents attended the meeting at Miller School, briefly debating the merits and negative impacts of a moratorium prior to the vote.
Waldoboro Fire Chief Paul Smeltzer was elected to serve as moderator prior to the opening of the floor to public debate.
Town Manager Julie Keizer said the town had elected to take action on the establishment of a marijuana moratorium to prepare for the potential awarding of licenses and establishment of retail marijuana businesses in February.
"By Feb. 1, if we don't do anything, licenses and businesses could move to town," Keizer said.
Seth Hall, a resident, spoke against the adoption of a moratorium, saying no retail marijuana businesses will spring up before the Maine State Legislature finishes its rule-making process.
"Nothing can happen until the state decides the details of licenses. They are going to do something, maybe not as quick as we'd like, but they'll get to it," Hall said.
Hall said that without approval from Augusta, retail marijuana businesses could not open in any town in the state. He said Waldoboro would be better served to spend time working on other issues, such as economic development and school funding.
"I think we are putting the cart before the horse here. I think we are being a little premature. The state has this well in hand and we don't do anything with this process except devote important time and energy away from other things," Hall said.
Residents also spoke in favor of the moratorium, with voters inquiring about the U.S. Department of Justice's stance on recreational marijuana and whether the establishment of retail businesses in Waldoboro would place the town in legal jeopardy.
Bruce Krause voiced his support for the moratorium before making a motion to move the question, or end debate.
"I believe Waldoboro has enough drug problems without retail marijuana," Krause said.
After the vote was recorded and the meeting adjourned, Keizer said the town's marijuana committee will continue to debate the matter and work to prepare the municipality for the Legislature's eventual action on retail marijuana.
"The marijuana committee will have more meetings and proceed with their discussion," Keizer said.
Selectman Jann Minzy said she supports further discussion and debate on the matter, indicating that it is hard to prepare for something the Legislature hasn't finalized yet.
"I don't want to close the door until I know what's on the other side," Minzy said.
Selectman Abden Simmons said the moratorium gives the town something to stand on if residents don't agree with a future decision from the Legislature.
"This gives us something if the Legislature comes up with something we don't like," Simmons said.
Simmons reiterated his support for a moratorium over an indefinite prohibition, saying a moratorium allows for debate to continue and the marijuana committee to proceed with their work, whereas a prohibition could have had the effect of curtailing further discussion.
Once in place, a moratorium remains in effect for 180 days. The selectmen have the option to renew it for an additional 180 days.

It's BIG QUESTIONS WEEK here on GUWG, where all week long we're looking at deep, thought-provoking ?s from the Bible.
Jesus and the disciples were hanging out in a boat one night. A violent storm suddenly broke out. Waves started pounding the boat and it was nearly swamped.
The disciples were freaking. Jesus was sleeping.
So they woke him up. "Don't you care if we drown?" they asked him.

To say that birds were a "thing" in my house growing up would be an understatement. We were the Bird family. "Bird, just like flies in the sky," mom would always say when explaining how to spell our last name. Of course, when your last name happens to be an easily identifiable cute creature, you suddenly find yourself the recipient of many gifts, figurines, and other items resembling said creature. On the wall there still hangs a picture of a cardinal by a famous artist. In the kitchen a string of lights, each bulb surrounded by a metal bird. A white ceramic one sits on a doily on top of the piano. You get the idea.
But the love for birds in our home goes beyond décor. We also love feeding and watching them. No one more than my mom. We always had a bird feeder, which she kept faithfully full, to make sure her feathered friends would keep coming to visit. We would often sit at the dining room table with a cup of tea in our hands, watching through the large picture window. "There's Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal!" She would say. Or, "Look! The finches are starting to turn back to gold again!" And of course there was the red-bellied woodpecker, the nuthatch, and the tufted tit-mouse. And anytime a chickadee showed up? Things really got exciting.
Everyone was invited to the feast. Even the simple brown sparrows, less flashy than their colorful relatives. I confess, I can't remember ever hearing, "Look! A sparrow!" There was nothing particularly extraordinary about them. (They weren't the cool kids.) I can relate.
I think there's something special about the fact that THIS is the bird Jesus chose to draw our attention to, to help us understand the nature of God's care for us. Because we all know what it's like to feel un-extraordinary. To look at the other birds and think, "I bet God loves them more. They're so much prettier." What's the end of that sentence for you? Everyone else is so much… smarter? Richer? Thinner? Godlier? What is it that you tell yourself disqualifies you from God's love and care?
"Not one sparrow will fall to the ground outside your Heavenly Father's care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Matthew 10:29-31
"Don't be afraid." When the lies have you convinced He doesn't care? Remember the sparrows.
"You are worth more than many sparrows." You are precious to Him. So much so that he knows the exact number of hairs on your head in this moment. (And if your hair sheds anything like mine, you know that's a lot to keep up with.)
He sees. He knows. He cares. So don't be afraid, friend. And don't forget, you are worth more than many sparrows.

Causes And Treatment Of Acne Scars
Acne is a constant worry, especially for girls, as it appears all of a sudden and its scars remain long after the acne is gone. Irrespective of your dislike for it, acne occurs throughout the teenage years of almost everyone and considerable effort is needed for removing these bad looking scars and checking them from reappearing.
Acne is the result of a reaction between bacteria and sebum discharged by the glands present in skin, giving rise to an infection. In the healing stage of this infection, a protein called collagen is created under the skin. If collagen goes beyond normal levels, it causes a swelling, and if it is below normal, it causes small depressions on the surface of the skin. Either of these factors can give rise to acne scars. Adolescents usually suffer more than others because the amount of hormones rise at a high rate during the period of puberty causing increased release of sebum.
Some of the usual factors that result in an acne infection include consumption of medicines, regular use of oral contraceptives, using cosmetics that are not suited to the skin type and hereditary reasons. Various other reasons such as anxiety, improper food habits, and even pollution can cause acne. However, there is no conclusive proof behind the common myth that acne is caused by consumption of oily food.
Notwithstanding the variety of herbal skin-care products that claim to heal acne and that are being sold to consumers at different shops, it is advisable to get medical opinion if the situation gets worse or if it happens repeatedly. Avoiding squeezing the lesion or jabbing it with any pointed object is a must to avoid worsening of acne.
An increasing number of people are also opting for cosmetic treatments to get rid of acne scars and to get back a skin free of scars and blemishes. Laser based procedures and surgery are also being done increasingly for removing acne scars, along with several new cures that have been discovered by medical science. You should take suggestions from a well known skin doctor who would be able to assess your skin type and recommend a proper remedy accordingly.

Rich Froning, Jr. has won the last three CrossFit Games- he must have the secret to being a better CrossFitter right? Yes he does: "the key is hard work- there is no secret." People often ask our coaches what to do to get better. Is it double days? Strict paleo/zone? More strength? More endurance? A certain supplement? All of these are viable questions- but the real answer remains that in order to get better you have to work hard (and smart). It is often said that CrossFit doesn't get easier- and I couldn't agree more. If you have never been uncomfortable* when doing a WOD, you're missing the magic. Focus on making the most out of every time you are in the gym. Get under a heavy barbell. Go for broke in a workout- don't wander away from the barbell/kb/box/wb/intensity to get a drink of water and feel sorry for yourself (we've all been there, I'm not judging just lovingly encouraging). You may have heard me say before "it doesn't have to be pretty." When I say this I am not referring to form or movement (these should always be pretty). I'm talking about the look on your face, the grunting and yelling, and that crazy/psychotic look you have when you're red-lining during a WOD. (And, hey, if you find the right person, they might even find that beautiful).
Have fun. Push yourself and those around you. Work hard and don't be afraid to go all in. That's the secret.
*Note that there is a difference between "uncomfortable" and being in pain. Uncomfortable is being out of breath, pushing your limit, dripping sweat, laying it all on the line. Pain/injury is an indication that you should stop and be smart.

The MHSAA Boys Basketball playoffs reached its quarterfinal round on Tuesday, which meant that 32 teams across the state of Michigan vied for sixteen spots in the semifinals at Breslin Center. Michigan Sports Radio's teams were LIVE at two sites, and there was one other game involving a West Michigan team. For a recap of these, and a look ahead to the action at the Breslin Center, continue to read below:
DIVISION 1 QUARTERFINAL: Okemos 50 East Kentwood 45
The Chiefs and the Falcons met in Caledonia on Tuesday night, and they treated a packed house to a phenomenal game. A double-double for Evan Thomas, 22 points and 10 rebounds, was enough to spearhead Okemos to victory. It was a good run for Kentwood, who had an up and down 11-9 regular season before embarking on a five-game playoff winning streak to get to tonight's quarterfinal. For Okemos, their season continues to be a magical one. They are now 23-2 on the season, and they advance to Friday's Division 1 Semifinals. They will take on perennial state power UD Jesuit, who enters the game with an equally impressive 24-2 mark. The Cubs defeated Roseville 91-54 in the quarterfinals.
DIVISION 2 QUARTERFINAL: Unity Christian 71 South Christian 45
The Crusaders and the Sailors met at Calvin College in front of a sell-out crowd for a berth in the state semifinals. They both were playing some of the best basketball in the area, winning seventeen straight contests entering the game, but you never would have guessed that after the ball had tipped. The Saders blitzed South Christian and dominated in a 26 point victory to earn a trip to the Breslin Center. The first quarter was close, as Unity Christian held just a six-point lead. The next two quarters were the most pivotal for Unity to assert their dominance, as they outscored South Christian 35-19. Inside play was key for the Crusaders as they outscored South 36-16. They also took advantage of turnovers, turning them into twenty points. Three players for Unity Christian finished in double digits, led by Noah Wiswary with 15. Ryan Takens finished with 14, and TJ VanKoevering finished with 13 points and nine rebounds. Peyton Vis led South Christian with 13 points. Unity Christian will now take on Ludington at 5:30 Friday in the semifinals. The Orioles advanced to the semifinals with a 14-10 record after defeating Alma 65-32.
DIVISION 4 QUARTERFINAL: Tri-Unity 62 Belleville 31
The Defenders are headed back to Breslin Center after a blowout victory over Belleville in Charlotte on Tuesday. They doubled up the Broncos, and they now find themselves two wins away from the State Championship. They will take on 20-5 Frankfort on Thursday at 7:30 for a bid in the finals. Frankfort advanced to the Breslin Center with a 53-51 overtime victory over Big Rapids Crossroads. The other side of the bracket pits Dollar Bay (21-4) and Southfield Christian (19-6).

Secrets of Video for Photographers – The Next Step
For all details, see the web page
Taking the step from stills to video can be a challenging one. You will have to learn how to deal with motion and sound, tell the visual story in a different way. There is new equipment to master. Post-production can be much more involved and time consuming. The explosion of interest in video both by clients and photographers in the last couple of years has opened new creative avenues for photographers. More photographers are being asked to create video content so are facing new challenges in estimating, production and post-production. Come and learn about the latest tools and techniques needed to create video. Learn how to better estimate the time and costs involved and how you need to approach video differently than stills while using your photographic talents to your advantage.
"The combination of facts, experiences and practical ideas you presented will undoubtedly save a lot of money and pain for any photographer that is just beginning to investigate video production. Plus the tools, toys, and software you shared were a real eye opener for those of us who have already started shooting HD video with DSLR. Thanks again for making the event well worth our time and the 180 miles we drove to attend!"
Dave Busch of QuadPhoto
"I enjoyed your class. There are people who learn and teach, like they book learn but you can tell them right away that they never actually did it. I don't enjoy that as much as seeing someone who does it for a living and as such can teach things you can't learn from a book. That's you. It's easy to tell you have done this and know the really important things about video production.
Though you were much above my needs as I listened, I learned a lot from watching you work and hearing about your experience. Thanks you for a great few hours of your knowledge and experience."
Michael P. Randazzo, Professional Photographer

Saturday Workshop Saturday February 26
9 am- 5 pm at the famous Warner Studio now called "The Lot" in West Hollywood – Limited to 20 participants
Hosted by Hollywood-DI
Photography and video are coming together. In the last couple of years, the idea of photographers producing video has exploded and photographers now must gear up and learn the language of video. As advertisers and magazines turn to video on the web, cable and mobile devices to get out their message, there are more opportunities than ever for you to do video in tandem with your photography to capture new clients and sell video services to existing clients.
Producing video creates fundamental changes to your workflow. It requires new tools and techniques to take the step from photography to video. You need to learn what the new technologies mean to you from a photographer's point of view. This is why Lee White, a professional photographer and educator, has created an intensive all day workshop to help guide you into video. This hands on workshop will go in depth about each step of video production so you can start producing your own video and avoid some of the most dangerous pitfalls.
In the morning, Lee White will go over the fundamentals of video production and direct a plan for a shoot for the afternoon. In the afternoon, we will shoot, and work with a professional editor from Hdi to edit and color grade the video.
The Saturday subjects will include:
– The importance of workflow including recording formats and how to use them to your advantage
– Estimating and planning combined photography and video shoots with forms for estimating video production
– Understanding the lighting, filming and sound techniques needed for video
– Hands on experince with camera, lighting and sound equipment
– Editing and color grading demonstrations
– Common issues in directing talent and a chance to direct yourself
– The importance of post production
All attendees get free music composing software and royalty free music from SmartSound
The latest equipment and software by Apple, Manfrotto, Panasonic, Zeiss, Redrock Micro, Marshall, Sennheiser, SmartSound, Beachtek, LaCie, Chimera, and Hoodman will be demonstrated.

How to Own Your Power With Difficult People in 3 Steps
Happy Friday y'all!
Today let's consider if we have someone in our lives who challenges our ability to trust and care for ourselves. When we hear that person's voice or are in his or her presence, we may forget all we know about what is real, about how to own our power, about how to be direct, about what we know and believe to be true, and about how important we are.
We give up our power to that person.
The child in us gets hooked with a mixture of powerful feelings – love, fear, or anger. We may feel trapped, helpless, or so attracted that we can't think straight. There may be a powerful tug of war going between feelings of anger and our need to be loved and accepted, or between our head and our heart.
We may be so enamored or intimidated that we revert to our belief that we can't react or respond to this person any differently.
We get hooked.
Yet, we don't have to stay under a spell. We start by becoming aware of the people who hook us, and then accepting that. We can force ourselves through the motions of reacting differently to that person, even if that new reaction is awkward and uncomfortable.
Let's search out our motivations.
Are we somehow trying to control or influence the other person? We cannot change the other person, but we can stop playing our part of the game.[clickToTweet tweet="We can't change the challenging people in our lives, but we can stop playing our part of the game." quote="We can't change the challenging people in our lives, but we can stop playing our part of the game."]
One good way to do this is by detaching and letting go of any need to control.
The next step is learning to own our power to take care of ourselves, to be who we are and free from their influence. We can learn to own our power with difficult people.
It may not happen overnight, but we can begin, today, to change our self-defeating reactions to the people who have hooked us.
Higher Power, help us to identify the relationships where we have forfeited our power. Help us unhook and begin owing our power! Many blessings and much love!
~~Chaplain Roger Ward
3 Steps to Own Your Power With Difficult People
- Search out the motivations.
- Detach and let go of any need to control.
- Own the power & right to self-care, to be who you are and free of negative influence.
There will be difficult people & circumstances in life. Expect it. We can't always control who is in our lives & why. But we can take control of our inner child to choose how we react & interact with others in a way that does not impact our own positive energy.
What helps you to stay grounded when others around you challenge your right to self-love & self-care?
Until next time...Enjoy!

Great share, love your perspective. I learned long ago what works for me is removing myself. I can only control my actions and my words so I make sure I take responsibility for myself. Have a great weekend.
Hi Mari. Agreed if at all possible, that's the best. I have been in situations with employers/co-workers where I could not immediately remove myself (or remove myself for long enough to diffuse the situation). Things would get volatile, stressful & just suck all my energy. It took a while for me to realize that I needed to take control of how I dealt with or reacted to such people & not get sucked in.
Through interactions like that I had to learn to be gracefully cordial but not otherwise engage.

Family & Relationship IssuesHomosexuality & BisexualityMedical Disorders
book is a collection of eleven articles plus two introductory pieces about the
media and teenagers' sexuality. The editors are, respectively, Professor of Journalism
and Mass Communication at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, a
specialist in teens and the media who lectures at the University of St. Thomas,
and an Associate Professor of Journalism at the University of Florida. The
authors whose articles are collected in the book also tend to be
communications, advertising, media and journalism specialists although four of
them are psychologists. The editors' and authors' specialist areas faithfully
reflect the balance of the book which is published as part of Lawrence Erlbaum
Associates' Communication Series and more specifically their Communication
Theory and Methodology Subseries.
book's subtitle "Investigating Media's Influence on Adolescent
Sexuality" is a good guide to the theme of the collection. The
introductory article, written by the book's three editors, sets the tone with
an appropriate cartoon and an overview of the importance of the media for young
people, helping to shape both their views of themselves and their ideas of
sexual relationships as well as being a source of factual information about all
aspects of sexuality. Like all the articles in the book, this introduction has
excellent tables and figures, is thoroughly researched and well documented and
has a superb bibliography listing all the books and articles mentioned in the
text. The second article of an introductory nature, "Shaking the Tree of
Knowledge for Forbidden Fruit: Where Adolescents Learn about Sexuality and
Contraception", is a well-researched comparison of the relative importance
of peers, family, school and the media as sources of knowledge about matters
sexual. One of its major conclusions is that there is a need for health
professionals to work with the media to help them promote more responsible
sexual behaviour and this sets the scene for the rest of the book.
book then falls into three sections: Television, four chapters; Magazines,
three chapters; Movies/Music/Internet, four chapters. The chapters on
television covering sexual messages in prime-time, daytime talk shows,
adolescents' perceptions, and media impact on adolescents' body
dissatisfaction, are all full of hard data, excellent analysis, good tables and
figures and an approach which makes them highly suitable for college and
university students pursuing a course in media or psychology. In Britain these
articles would be ideal for A Level and undergraduate students of sociology as
well as journalism, media and psychology. The detailed analysis tends to be
quantitative but there is no lack of qualitative comment.
following section, Magazines, contains three chapters on magazine coverage of
sex and sexual health, using magazines for sex information, and how girls use
magazines to form an image of what it means to be a girl. The first of these three
is heavily analytical and the results are expressed in precise quantitative
terms making the data particularly useful to anyone pursuing similar research.
The other two chapters give us a great deal more qualitative information; their
intention is not to analyse and to reduce the data to quantitative form. The
second of these two, "Girls in Print: Figuring Out What It Means to Be a
Girl", was a real eye-opener for this reviewer as I was constantly
reaching out for my dictionary of slang to look up words totally new to me!
last section, Movies/Music/Internet, is necessarily a bit of a mix. There is an
article on the romantic agenda in the most popular movies that uses a detailed
coding system to analyse the data. The second chapter in this section, "Teens
and Movies: Something to Do, Plenty to Learn", used focus groups and
in-depth interviews to discover how important movies are for teenagers. The
third chapter, "The Sounds of Sex: Sex in Teens' Music and Music
Videos", is basically laying some of the groundwork for future research
into this area. Finally, the last chapter, "Sexual Selves on the World
Wide Web: Adolescent Girls' Home Pages as Sites for Sexual
Self-Expression", was another eye-opener for I had no idea that people
deliberately placed extremely intimate details of their personal life on home
pages on the web. This chapter was the result of a survey which by definition
could only be a fairly random sample and the analysis is of necessity
book as a whole should be extremely useful to a wide range of people. It is
clearly not intended for the general public. However, the critical apparatus
and the detailed data analysis make this an ideal book for teachers of subjects
covering the whole communications/media/journalism/sociology/psychology range
to include in their course reading. For students in those disciplines not only
does the book provide a wealth of data but many of the studies, usually
surveys, are easily replicable so that students could re-run the survey as a
piece of their own coursework and then compare their results with those in this
book. In conclusion, therefore, the book comes with a 'highly recommended' tag.

Sometimes, you can't schedule your spare time and you would like to play your favorite sport (basketball, soccer, ...) at any time.
It would be great to be able to find, in real time, teammates and fields in your neighbourhood to have a great time and to meet new faces (and maybe make freinds?).

The short film Rosa will soon become a full feature film not that 20th Century Fox is in the final negotiations to pick up the title.
THR reports that the studio is keen on the short which hit the web in November. Creator Jesus Orellana, a comic book artist created the animated short to pitch a live action film which he wanted to direct. Things have turned out well for him and he will get to live his dream.
The animated short was created on a very low budget by Orellana on his home computer in Barcelona. Within a month of posting the short he had representation and was pitching the idea to multiple studios.
The story of rose is one about a cyborg deployed in a post-apocalyptic world where no natural exists. Born from mankind's last attempt to restore Earth, the Kernel project, Rosa soon finds out that she is not alone and that she must fight to survive, something about her is different than the others though.
Orellana has a roadmap for the feature story, but a writer will be hired to create a script that builds on the short storyline and the characters in it.
Watch the short for yourself right here, I think it's quite good.

Keller Williams $10,000 Donation Brings Dredging Funding Closer To Goal
By Tamas Mondovics
"We have come a long way and still have more work to do, but donations like the one provided by the Keller Williams SouthShore Office will enable us to complete the task at hand," said Apollo Beach Waterway Improvement Group president, Len Berkstresser, during a recent open house meeting.
Berkstresser was pleased to receive a $10,000 donation check from the Keller Williams SouthShore Office, which helped the group to inch even closer to its financial commitment.
The townhall-style meeting is part of a series of events since the endeavor began several years ago and has once again brought together more than 80 SouthShore area residents who were eager to hear and discuss the group's ongoing effort to raise funds in order to dredge the three channels in Apollo Beach.

Universal credit consultation - LITRG response
Published on 4 November 2010
The benefits system is to undergo its biggest overhaul for a generation with the replacement of many existing tax credits and benefits with one Universal Credit.
Many problems that claimants face in the current tax, tax credit and benefit systems stem from the way the systems interact with one another. Other problems arise from the complexity of the systems that make administration difficult.
The consultation document acknowledged this, and although we support the Government's intention to address these issues, we have many concerns about their proposed solution.
Please use the link to see the LITRG response.

February 18, 2011
TNN, Feb 11, 2011, 03.59am IST
JODHPUR: Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama said on Thursday that
India has a reason to have a claim on Tibet more than China. He said
this in reference to the closeness of the Tibetans with India as he said
that the Buddhist religion has its roots in India and it is still
practiced abundantly along the border right from Ladakh to Arunachal
Pradesh. He was addressing a gathering of Tibetan community during his
third day of Jodhpur visit on Thursday. He sought the continuous support
of India in the struggle of Tibetans terming this to be an issue of
India as well.
He said the Tibetans owe India a lot as this nation has never
disappointed them in standing by them. Striking a comparison between
India and China, he said that though China is a fast-developing country
marked by rapid pace of economic growth, it is devoid of any sort of
freedom and morality, which has miserably failed to maintain the
communism. On the contrary, India takes a lead from China here in terms
of protection of civil rights and freedom and is the most successful and
stable democracy in the world. Giving the examples of Pakistan,
Afghanistan, Sri Lanka,Burma and Bangladesh, the spiritual leader said
that despite having surrounded by such unstable countries, India has
succeeded in maintaining the democratic and human values.
Addressing the gathering in his mother tongue, Dalai Lama called upon
them for sticking to their roots and remain determined for keeping their
culture, traditions and values alive. "Though it is a huge challenge
with a long struggle ahead, we are finding support with the many
countries including China, where the intellectuals have started
understanding us and have started lending years to our voice," he said.

And now for something completely different … auditioning DACs. Our neighbor, friend, and Positive-Feedback reviewer Lynn Olson brought over two Exasound DACs for this analog diehard to sample (pun intended). I'm a turntable designer, and many think of me as an analog only kind of fellow, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

300B SETs and 89dB Speakers – are you NUTs?
Who, in their right mind would ever dream of matching a 300B SET amplifier to an 89dB speaker? The NiWatts have been on a local tour as we await the first batch of production chassis – this, in preparation for their Fall tour to the East Coast. Yesterday, I put them to a real test …

Nowadays the whole world has become digitalized and for each and everything we have an electronic device. We have a television to entertain ourselves, an iPad to watch movies and work on the go, a mobile to receive calls when we are away from home. These electronic devices have something called as the semiconductor.
A semiconductor is a substance whose electrical conductance falls between metal and insulator. However, the conducting property can be altered by adding impurities into the crystal. Some commonly known semiconductors are silicon, germanium, and arsenide. Since it becomes very difficult to produce, semiconductor becomes very expensive.
Quantum dot is the solution and can be used in place of a semiconductor. Quantum dots are basically very small semiconductors which lie in the nanometre scale. Quantum dots change its properties even with a very small change in shape or size. The quantum dots have been used in electronic instruments like solar panels, camera sensors and medical imaging tools by researchers.
David Hanifi co-author of research on quantum dots said, "These quantum dots can be made in large number in labs in a more simple way as compared to semiconductor".
When the research started in order to understand whether they could compete with semiconductors, the researchers focused on how efficiently the quantum dots could remit the light that they absorb, and the experiments showed that the performance of quantum dots was better as compared to a semiconductor.
This research work is the result of a collaboration between the labs of Alberto Salleo, professor of materials science and engineering at Stanford, and Paul Alivisatos, the Samsung Distinguished Professor of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology at the University of California, Berkeley, who is a pioneer in quantum dot research and senior author of the paper. However, this research is a part of the collection of projects of the Department of Energy at the Frontier Research Centre.
There are various benefits that quantum dots have. Being highly customizable, one of the biggest benefits of quantum dots is that it changes its shape due to which it can change the wavelength of light that they emit which is one of the biggest advantages in colour based applications like television.
Thus, quantum dots have hit the consumer market in the form of quantum dot TV or the QLED(where Q stands for quantum dots).
As we all know that everything in this universe comes with its own disadvantages, the disadvantage that the quantum dot has is that because of its smaller size – it takes many particles to come together in order to perform a particular task. In order to form so many quantum dots, the chances of something going wrong becomes highly possible, which indirectly means that the chances of some program to go wrong also becomes possible due to which there are chances of performance getting hampered.
The researchers are finding out measurement techniques in order to evaluate these particles.
The next step in the ongoing research involves even more precise measurements and if the researchers can determine that, these quantum dots could reach an efficiency of 99.9 percent or above.
With the increase in efficiency, we can have wonderful applications like:
- New glowing dyes to enhance our ability to look at biology at the atomic scale.
- Luminescent cooling and luminescent solar concentrators, which allow a relatively small set of solar cells to take in energy from a large area of solar radiation and many more things.
"People working on these quantum dot materials have thought for more than a decade that dots could be as efficient as single crystal materials," said Hanifi.
So, Let us hope for this research to go forward and get us many other efficient applications.

text: Emerging Tech Electronic funds transfer system adds value Gail Balfour @itworldca Published: March 25th, 1999Thanks to a new $15 million electronic funds transfer system, financial institutions can now transfer large Canadian dollar payments in a matter of seconds.The Large Value Transfer System (LVTS) was developed by DMR Consulting Group Inc. for the Canadian Payments Association (CPA), and can be accessed by most banks and credit unions across Canada. It has been it its testing phase since August, but last month was the first time the participating institutions were subject to real-time risk controls, including the pledging of collateral to the Bank of Canada.This means the banks can now guarantee right away that the funds are available, which increases the efficiency and security of the transactions, said Don Sinden, program director of application maintenance and support at DMR in Ottawa."So when [banks] transfer funds, they are immediately transferred to the other institution, and are immediately available to the receiver."Prior to implementing this system, funds were not cleared until the next day, or in some cases two to three days. This meant the payments were not final and could be revoked.Now, if the bank doesn't have the funds the transfer will be rejected immediately. The LVTS intercepts a copy of the payments in order to validate it, then sends confirmation back to sender and receiver in real-time.The system sits on one centralized mainframe in Toronto, with a backup site in Regina that is available within two hours if there is a problem at the primary site. The network configuration is all new, with each bank accessing the LVTS over a private network via NT workstations running MQ Series on a Visual Basic interface.According to Sinden, DMR implemented the hardware and software using its own system development methodology called Macroscope, which includes requirement definitions, functional designs, system architecture and writing the actual code needed."So, in order to get all of these banks talking to each other, there was quite a variety of specialized software, including several security packages – because security is a big concern here," Sinden explained.Part of the design of the system stipulated a minimum configuration for the banks' hardware, and as long as they complied with that, there was no difficulty in them gaining access to the LVTS, he said."Where the challenge came was in integrating the various components of security software with a combination of mainframe computers and PCs. We have some very sophisticated encryption software, and there were some difficulties in integrating that with our application. But we finally managed it," he said."We are talking about large values. In any given day, this system could transfer in excess of $100 billion."Jim Dingle, deputy chairman of CPA and research advisor for the Bank of Canada, said one of the main reasons for implementing the LVTS was to reduce the systemic risk in the payment system."If there is a default of one institution, it could cause a second, or third, or fourth institution to default as well – sort of a domino effect," he explained.Also, most other trading countries already have similar systems in place, which put Canada at a disadvantage, he said."There was a perception that if Canada didn't also follow that pattern, the international competitive position of Canadian institutions would drop off. [Because] if the world thinks that a Canadian dollar payment is not final for a while, or has an air of uncertainty, they may keep their transactions in U.S. dollars, or German Marks."Pierre Roach, director of LVTS, for the CPA said the biggest advantage is that the system ensures payments are final and irrevocable."Which means if you get a payment in LVTS, you don't have to worry at all about it being returned. As soon as you receive that wire payment it has immediate, real-time finality. So, as soon as it hits your account, it's yours."Roach predicts the LVTS will be used more and more by businesses in Canada, especially as a replacement for writing large cheques. There are between 30 and 40 billion cheques worth $50,000 and over being validated through traditional systems every night, but many of these will start clearing through LVTS in the form of electronic payments, he said."Even in the first month of operations, we noticed a lot of that moving to LVTS. It will never replace [paper cheques] completely, but there will be a shift over as businesses realize the benefits of dealing with the new system."Would you recommend this article?00 Thanks for taking the time to let us know what you think of this article!

28L Mash Tun w/Bazooka Screen
This mash tun is designed to keep a constant temperature whilst mashing which is important to ensure the best extraction of sugars as possible.
It's suitable for mashing in up to 9Kg of malt, and ideally making batch sizes of around 25 Litres.
Provided is a ball valve which allows for precise flow control to have the perfect sparge rate.
and also comes with a 6" Bazooka screen to filter the grains as you drain into your boil kettle.
A handy tip to have clearer beer going into the kettle is to Vorlauf; Which is the process of slowly draining off 1-2 Litres of the wort into a container, and recirculating that through the grain (it helps by letting the malt create a more compact bed against the bazooka screen, making it a better filter). Do this 2-4 times, each time you should notice less grain coming through and also a clearer wort.

Miller F. Whittaker Library awarded grant to help make learning more affordable Leads Open Educational Resources movement for HBCUs
ORANGEBURG, S.C. – SC State's Miller F. Whittaker Library was awarded a $249,376 grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) through the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program. The two-year grant will support initiatives that aim to lower the cost of textbooks and other course materials for students and enhance the university's library as an educational resource. With the awarded funds, SC State's library will sponsor a summit that will train academic librarians on Open Educational Resources (OER). The summit will include librarians and faculty teams from other historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
According to its page on the Institute of Museum and Library Services website, the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program "supports developing a diverse workforce of librarians to better meet the changing learning and information needs of the American public."
The summit's training on OER will equip librarians to become advocates and leaders in OER, which is an affordable learning movement, on their campuses. With U.S. academic libraries historically at the forefront of OER, its purpose is to support the creation, adaptation, adoption and awareness of open and affordable textbooks. Librarians from public and private HBCUs will be invited to attend the summit. In addition to the summit, the funded project will include:
a project website
textbook transformation grants to HBCU library and faculty teams to redesign a general education course to incorporate free or low-cost textbooks
a series of professional development webinars on OER
OER is needed more than ever to make education more affordable for students. Textbook prices have increased 88% overthelastdecade, averaging about $1,250 a year at four-year public colleges. The cost of textbooks and other coursematerials present barriers to the completion of a college education. Members of Congress and other leaders consider OER as one solution to promoting college affordability.
This project will empower librarians with knowledge and skills about the OER curation process, encourage them to become advocates while serving as resources for free and low-cost textbooks and introduce them to best practices for the development, maintenance and sustainability of an OER initiative on their respective campuses.
"As centers of learning and catalysts of community change, libraries and museums connect people with programs, services, collections, information and new ideas in the arts, sciences and humanities. They serve as vital spaces where people can connect with each other," said IMLS Director Dr. Kathryn K. Matthew. "IMLS is proud to support their work through our grant making as they inform and inspire all in their communities."
"We are elated to receive this grant, which has the potential of putting SC State at the forefront of the OER movement within the HBCU community. Given HBCU students are often recipients of Pell Grants or low-income students, much OER literature suggests that free and affordable textbooks will enhance the success, retention and graduation rate of these students," said Dr. Ruth A. Hodges, interim dean of SC State's Library and Information Services, and principal investigator of the project.
Dr. Diane M. Burnette, executive director of the university's Center for Teaching, Learning andExtendedStudies, is the co-principal investigator.

The warship London sank in the Thames Estuary on 7th March 1665 while preparing for the second Anglo-Dutch war, which had been declared by Charles II only three days earlier.
The ship was en route from Chatham to Hope, awaiting the arrival of the Admiral, Sir John Lawson, when it was torn apart by an internal explosion attributed to the mass detonation of the gunpowder in the magazine. Samuel Pepys, the noted diarist and at the time a naval administrator, recorded the loss in his diary entry dated 8th March 1665.
'This morning is brought me to the office the sad newes of 'The London', in which Sir J. Lawson's men were all bringing her from Chatham to the Hope, and thence he was to go to sea in her; but a little a 'this side the buoy of the Nower, she suddenly blew up. About 24 [men] and a woman that were in the round-house and coach saved; the rest, being above 300, drowned: the ship breaking all in pieces, with 80 pieces of brass ordnance. She lies sunk, with her round-house above water. Sir J. Lawson hath a great loss in this of so many good chosen men, and many relations among them. I went to the 'Change, where the news taken very much to heart'.
The site was re-discovered in 1962 and was designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 in 2008. Cotswold Archaeology has worked on the site since 2014.
The sudden loss of the ship and crew (and others on board) means that the archaeological remains have the potential to answer many research questions about life on a seventeenth century ship. In four seasons of excavation CA, working alongside the licensee Steve Ellis and his team, has recovered a whole host of exceptionally well-preserved artefacts.
Detailed studies of five of the bronze guns recovered from the site have revealed that three were fully loaded and had tampions (stoppers placed in the muzzle when not in use) in place, one was partially loaded, and one was empty. This suggests that the master gunner was preparing the ship for battle at the time of its loss.
The large number of used clay pipes recovered from the site may hint at the cause of the explosion of the ship, heavily laden as it was with gunpowder…
