The world's smallest working "steam engine" has been built in Germany, according to a team of researchers.
The microscopic model was based on a 195-year-old design by the inventor Robert Stirling.
Changes included the replacement of the original pistons with a laser beam.
The physicists said they were "astonished" by how efficiently the machine converted heat into power - but said it did "not run smoothly" and had no practical use in its current form.
A conventional Stirling engine has a cylinder of gas attached to a heat source at one end and a cold source at the other.
The gas is alternately heated and cooled by being shifted to the different temperature locations.
As the gas is heated it expands, driving a piston outwards which drives a wheel. This causes a displacer - also attached to the wheel - to move in the cylinder, shifting the majority of the heated gas to the cool area where it contracts, drawing the piston back in.
This moves the displacer back to its original position shifting the gas back to the hot area, and the process repeats.
A two cylinder variant of the engine uses two pistons rather than a displacer.
"We wanted to understand how such a basic principle works, and if it works at all at a micron-length scale," Prof Clemens Bechinger told the BBC.
"Nowadays everybody is trying to make things smaller - electronic circuits and mechanical devices get smaller and smaller - so we thought why not try to investigate this basic process at a micro-scale."Laser tweezers
The physicists carried out their research at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems at the University of Stuttgart and published it in the latest edition of the Nature Physics Journal.
To adapt the engine down to micro-size, they replaced the cylinder of gas with a single micron-sized particle made of a plastic called melamine, roughly 10,000 times the size of an atom.
The particle was submerged in a chamber of water four-thousandths of a millimetre high.
The pistons were replaced with a focused infrared laser beam which acted as "optical tweezers", holding the particle in place.
The stronger the laser's intensity the more the particle was confined to one spot. The weaker the intensity the more the particle was able to fluctuate around that spot exploring a larger space.
The particle thus behaved in a similar way to the molecules in the original heat engine. When the particle was restricted in movement, it resembled the state the molecules would have been in when the gas was compressed. When it was able to move more freely it acted as the molecules would have done when the gas had been able to expand.
Since it was impractical to recreate hot and cold heat baths at the micro-level, a second laser was used. It heated the mixture to 90C (194F) in less than 10 milliseconds. It then was allowed to rapidly cool back to room temperature as soon as the laser was turned off.Stutter
Although this allowed the physicists to recreate the heat engine process, the amount of energy gained per cycle was not stable.
"In contrast to a macroscopic heat engine where everything works in a very smooth and very deterministic fashion, our engine stutters," said Prof Bechinger.
He said this was because the water molecules in the solution surrounding the microparticle were constantly colliding into it, causing energy to be passed back and forth.
In the larger engine the amount of energy generated by the engine dwarfed that of the tiny collisions happening inside the machine, making them irrelevant. But in the microscopic engine the energy levels were much more similar and could even bring the process to a standstill in extreme cases.
Although this made the amount of energy produced per cycle irregular, the team said they were surprised that on average, across a range of cycles, the micro-machine was as efficient as its larger counterpart.
"That was something we did not expect when we started the project," said Prof Bechinger.
Although the physicists conceded that a mini-steam engine would never be a practical power source, they said they hoped their research could now be used to create more stable power sources for micro-machines.

Iwobi came through the ranks at Arsenal and has established himself as a key member of the Gunners' first XI this season.
The forward has made 30 appearances in all competitions this term, scoring four goals.
And he has now revealed the biggest influences on him at the club are Wilshere and Coquelin.
Alex Iwobi reveals Jack Wilshere and Francis Coquelin influence him most at Arsenal
Wilshere is currently on loan at Bournemouth, while Coquelin has emerged as one if the club's best midfielders in recent seasons.
“[The biggest influence on me] would probably be Jack Wilshere, but he has not been around recently," Iwobi told Arsenal's official website.
"He talks to me off the pitch because he has been through the same system as me, I just watch what he does – especially as I grew up as a No 10 and he’s a No 10.
Arsenal's January-February form ranked over 10 years
Tue, February 7, 2017
How many points have Arsenal racked up in January and February over the last 10 years?
1 of 12
Arsenal's January-February form ranked from best to worst since 2007
Alex Iwobi revealed he looks up to Francis Coquelin now Jack Wilshere is at Bournemouth
“Now I would say it is Francis Coquelin, he is always talking to me.
"After the Watford game he told me what I did well, and what I need to improve on.
"He’s definitely one who keeps me in check.”

Patient advocates and leading medical societies involved in awareness building and improving patient safety in Atrial Fibrillation (Afib) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) gathered recently for the 1st Annual Anticoagulation Summit, a two-day conference.
Michael Wong, JD, founder and Executive Director of the Physician-Patient Alliance for Health & Safety (PPAHS), presented a poster on the OB VTE Safety Recommendations, which were released by PPAHS, in collaboration with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and the National Perinatal Association. The recommendations, compiled by a panel of health experts, give clinicians a step-by-step checklist to help assess all OB patients’ risks for VTE and identify the appropriate prophylaxis regimen to improve health outcomes for maternal patients.
To download a copy of the OB VTE Safety Recommendations, please click here.
Although not presented at the Anticoagulation Summit, PPAHS has also developed the Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations. The Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations may help reduce death and disability among stroke victims due to VTE. Developed by a group of leading neurological health and patient safety experts brought together by PPAHS, the Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations provide four concise steps:
- Assess all admitted patients with a stroke or rule out stroke diagnosis for VTE risk with an easy to use checklist.
- Provide the recommended prophylaxis regimen, which includes the use of mechanical prophylaxis and anticoagulant therapy.
- Reassesses the patient every 24 hours, prior to any surgical or procedural intervention or change in the patient’s condition.
- Ensure that the patient is provided appropriate VTE instructions and information upon hospital discharge or transition to rehabilitation.
A PDF of the Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations can be viewed by clicking here.
Both the OB VTE Safety Recommendations and the Stroke VTE Safety Recommendations are free resources on the PPAHS website.
Commenting on the Annual Anticoagulation Summit., Mr Wong said, “The Summit provided a useful forum for advocates working to reduce the incidence of VTE-related adverse events to share resources they had developed, as well future program goals and objectives. By sharing, I hope that these patient safety efforts will be enhanced and provide coordination rather than duplication of efforts.”
PPAHS invites all those involved to write articles for the PPAHS blog about resources they have developed.

Florida Cash Advance Law and Legislation
In accordance with the state legislation of Florida, payday lending is appropriate.
Florida imposes a $500 amount limitation on payday advances available in their state. Payday advances can be studied when it comes to duration from 7 to 31 times using the optimum finance charge of 10% for each and every $100 (plus verification charge no more than $5) and 304%* APR. One loan at time is permitted. There was a period that is cooling-off of hours between 2 consecutive loans. No rollovers are permitted. Unlawful actions are forbidden.
Pay day loans in Florida are named “deferred presentment transactions“. The expression “deferred presentment” means the work of composing a post-dated look for the funds lent now.
This solution, despite strict Florida’s pay day loan laws and regulations, is quite full of need as there's always absolutely essential in money. At present, Florida is anticipating the regulation that is new just simply simply take effect ( July 1, 2019). This legislation allows lenders that are payday provide loans up to $1,000 aided by the term as much as 3 months.
Florida Payday Lending Statutes
Their state of Florida considers payday lending legal in accordance with the Fl. Stat. Ann. § 560.402 et seq. And Rule 69V-560.901-912.
All payday loan providers in Florida should be certified beneath the Fl. Stat. Ann. § 560.402 et seq. In an effort to use within the state.
Loan Amount in Florida
In Florida, it really is forbidden to provide significantly more than $500 at the same time. The Florida workplace of Financial Regulation urges not to ever go beyond this restriction since it is unlawful.
Yet another limitation stated by the working office is the fact that an individual is perhaps perhaps perhaps not permitted to have more than one cash advance at the same time. All loan that is payday go into the Deferred Presentment Transaction System upon application. Based on the state legislation, each licensed loan provider must take a look system before issuing that loan to a job candidate, and refuse just in case the latter is currently detailed there.

How We Help
At-risk children come from many different situations: they may be homeless or living in a car with one of their parents; many were taken from their home because of abuse, neglect or abandonment and now live in foster care or group homes; several end up in emergency shelters because they have nowhere else to go.
When they turn 18-21 years old, a whole new set of challenges await them: they are solely responsible for their shelter and food; they need to arrange for their own transportation needs for work and/or school; they need to find a job with as many hours as they can get; they need to continue their education in order to go beyond minimum-wage jobs and become self-sufficient.
To this end, five years ago we’ve partnered with Children’s Home Society in Volusia County to create the WingsNet program which offers financial assistance and counseling to children who have “aged out of the system.” The goal of WingsNet is to encourage each youth to build a sense of self-reliance and independent skills. The program is designed to provide an incentive for the participants to succeed in school and reach their educational goals. It also provides a special needs fund for unanticipated situations that may arise that impedes a youths ability to succeed and for which no other funding is available. In January of 2013, we expanded WingsNet to Osceola County through our partnership with Impower. Our dream is to continue expanding, one county at a time, throughout Central Florida.
The funds we raise are focused on ensuring the continuation of programs and assistance needed for:
1. Transitioning young adults into independent living. When the youth reach age 18-21, the state considers them “aged out of the system” and they’re basically on their own. Statistics show that 33% of these youth will become homeless within three years. We want to provide educational assistance for these vulnerable young adults that will afford them opportunities to secure employment and provide them the ability to become self-sufficient.
2. Placing the children in residential homes when it’s not possible to return to their families or relatives. Residential care not only provides the children with a safe and secure family setting, but it also provides extensive one-on-one counseling and treatment for coping with their abuse. We’re committed to helping these children receive the help they need so they see hope in their future.
As of 2014, we have given nearly $1.5 Million Dollars to help these youth!

NORTH MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. – Eureka College freshman pitcher Erin Smith (Dunlap, Ill./Dunlap H.S.) fired a perfect game in her collegiate debut, helping the Red Devils throttle Lehman (N.Y.) 13-0 in five innings, Sunday afternoon at the Fastpitch Dreams Spring Classic in North Myrtle Beach, S.C. EC's seventh-inning rally fell short earlier in the day in a 5-4 loss to Ursinus (Pa.).
Smith didn't allow a base runner Sunday, facing the minimum over 5.0 innings. It's the first time Eureka has held an opponent without a hit since Jodie Bowen and Margaret Schwab combined for a 10-0 drubbing of Hilbert on March 10, 2014, also at the Fastpitch Dreams Spring Classic in North Myrtle Beach.
The Red Devils exploded for 10 runs in the first inning of the victory over the Lightning. A run-scoring triple from sophomore shortstop Kerrigan Dura (Edwards, Ill./Brimfield H.S.) got the Red Devils on the board. Kali George (East Peoria, Ill./East Peoria H.S.) and Smith added run-scoring hits in the frame, as EC collected only four hits during the assault and took advantage of four Lehman errors.
Six different Red Devils recorded a hit in the victory. Senior catcher Lexi Litwiller (Eureka, Ill./Eureka H.S./Lincoln) went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI. Dura and Smith also drove in two.
In the Sunday's season opener, fell behind Ursinus 5-0 after five innings. The Bears broke the contest open with a four-run fifth inning, highlighted Callie Crouse's two-run, two-out single. A double steal and an unearned run later in the frame finished the damage.
Eureka got one back on an RBI fielder's choice in the sixth. The real threat came in the seventh when EC loaded the bases with nobody out on back-to-back singles and a fielder's choice. George made it 5-2 with an RBI groundout before Litwiller crushed a two-run double to pull EC within a run at 5-4. With Litwiller the tying run at second, UC pitcher Jennifer Hammons induced a flyout and a groundout to secure the victory.
Litwiller went 2-for-3 in the opener with a double and two RBI. Senior third baseman Bridget Bankes (East Peoria, Ill./East Peoria H.S., freshman shortstop Morgan Osborn (Washington, Ill./Washington H.S.) and Dura were the only other Red Devils to collect a hit. George struck out three but took the loss in the circle.
Eureka will continue competition Monday with two more contests in North Myrtle Beach against NCAA Division III opponents. The Red Devils will play Hilbert at 12:30 p.m. CST, followed by a 2:30 p.m. CST matchup with John Jay.

This real Californian find was always from one family. The old title matches the black plates. Of course, as you can see on the pictures, an absolute rust-free car. One cheap respray, which was typical in these days. The family lost interest in the car somewhere in the 70th. According to the insurance sticker, it was on the road until 1976. The engine is turning. We did not start it. That is up to you. The car comes with an after-market hardtop.


At Samuel Ryder Academy, Key Stage 3 is a three year stage of education. Throughout those three years, we provide a richly broad and balanced curriculum that also recognises individual passions and needs.
Year 8 Options
In February, students in Year 8 select options to start in September, when they are in Year 9. They have to study English, Mathematics, Science, PE and Religion & Society, either Geography and/or History and either French or Spanish (with an option to do both). In addition, our dedication to a broad and balanced curriculum for all our students means that within the further subjects they select, they must include a technology and art subject (some of which they have not previously studied, expanding on the curriculum offer in Year 7 and 8). This approach allows our students to build the necessary knowledge and skills for their future education.
Year 9 Options
Also in February, students in Year 9 select options for their GCSE courses in Years 10 and 11. Again, students have to study English, Mathematics, Science, PE (non-examined) and Religion & Society (non-examined). In addition, students must choose four additional subjects. It is important for students to choose wisely having considered his or her own aptitudes and abilities and decide which subjects suit them best, taking into consideration other factors such as what they are hoping to study beyond Year 11.

APA to develop Crib Point to Pakenham Pipeline
As a result of entering into an Early Works Agreement with AGL, APA is undertaking investigations into the construction of a high pressure gas pipeline which will connect AGL’s proposed Gas Import Jetty at Crib Point to the Victorian Transmission System, near Pakenham. The proposed AGL Gas Import Jetty will increase energy security and supply for AGL’s customers in south eastern Australia. In addition, the pipeline will present other opportunities for the supply of gas to new and existing developments along the proposed pipeline route, with the pipeline being bi-directional to allow gas to flow from Pakenham and has been designed to allow for future off take valves along the route of the pipeline.
The project will involve the construction of a buried pipeline approximately 55-60 km in length with associated above-ground facilities at each terminal point and along the route of the pipeline. The pipeline is subject to a comprehensive program of regulatory approvals and landowner and community consultation, which will assist APA in finalising the pipeline alignment and managing the potential impacts of the construction and operation of the pipeline.

…Calls for a level Plane Ground for All
From Noah Ocheni, Lokoja
The Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Kogi State Council, ( NUJ) Comrade Adeiza Momohjimoh on Wednesday charged the Committe to exhibit high sense of patriotism and commitment to conduct free, fair and credible election devoid of rancour and partisanship.
The Chairman gave the charge while inaugurating the Credential Committee at the NUJ press centre, Lokoja saddle with the conduct of the forthcoming Council Election in the state.
He advised the committee to work closely with the Council in the execution of their mandate, urging the committee not consider itself as an alternative to the executive council of the Union.
He called for equity, fairness and provision of a level plane ground to all contestants as they should be guided by the NUJ constitution in their day to day activities.
The Chairman reminded the committee members that they were chosen based on their tract records in previous assignments and advised
them not to betray the confidence repose in them.
He assured the committee members of giving the needed moral, material and financial support in the discharge of their assignment.
The committee has Ebenezer Adurodijah as Chairman while Olusegun Oyenibi and Grace Kato are to serve as members.
Responding, the Chairman of the Committee, Ebenezer Adurodijah said his appointment to serve was a great honour for him and his members.
He promised to be neutral in the assignment, vowing to apply strictly the constitution in the process and conduct of the election.
According to him , All the Chapels of the Union would be consulted in other to have free, fair and credible election, “What we need to succeed in the duty is your cooperation and credible advice from the stakeholders” he urged.
In his contribution, the two time Chairman of the Union and a National Trustee of NUJ, Comrade Alih Atabor said, he is proud of the achievement of his successor , Momohjimoh Adeiza who he added has been able to raise the bar of the management of the Council.
He added that, he was confident in the ability of the committee members who are men of proven records in union matters to conduct the most acceptable election in recent times.
While encouraging members of the union to present themselves to contest for various positions said his comment on the performance of the incumbent chairman should not be misconstrued to mean outright endorsement.


Last week, I was at a conference in Dublin and one of the participants was articulating how she drives best-in-class performance with her team. The “AHA” moment for me was her quote on her leadership style. “I manage passion, not people”. One of the most powerful and thought provoking leadership quotes I have heard in a long time. The more I think about it, the more it resonates with me. I couldn’t stop thinking about the quote on my flight back and was able to connect some real life experiences / stories to the quote
- Hire the right PEOPLE
- Align PEOPLE to the right roles
- Motivate and develop PEOPLE
This is what every leader strives for. The 3 key pillars of leading and making people succeed. Now, lets switch PEOPLE with PASSION!!!
I think this gives a totally different perspective to leading teams and raises the bar for the people managers significantly, forcing one to think beyond and understand what an individual’s purpose and mission for their careers, connecting that to day-today work rather than just herding.
1. Hire the right People Passion: One of the most critical roles of a leader in any organization is to hire right, there is no margin of error. During my HP days, we hired a product / technical trainer who came in with several years of experience being a technical trainer. She had an engineering degree that complimented her technical trainer experience. She did a great job in the interview and said all the right things and we thought she was a perfect fit for the technical trainer role. So, we hired her and she did do a decent job as the technical trainer, delivering on what was expected. A couple of quarters in, we were looking to hire a HR counsellor as a part of our wellness team and she was pretty quick to raise her hands and apply for the role. I was intrigued and wanted to understand why a technical trainer with multiple years of experience would want to become an HR counsellor! I have to say that, I was amazed with the passion she showed towards the role and how she has been doing the counseling / wellness work independently outside work for over a decade. For personal reasons, she couldn’t relocate outside of the area she was residing and the only opportunity that she could find to support her family was a technical trainer but her heart was in wellness / counseling throughout. We decided to give her a try and she transformed the wellness program and went on to become a senior leader in the wellness community in the organziation. The key to hiring is going beyond the paper resume and exploring the passion of the individual and finding a potential match between their passion and the role that you are trying to fill. Sometimes experience and qualifications alone might not lead you to the right person for the job.
2. Align passion to the right roles: Have you ran in to a situation where you had an amazing rock star employee who was performing extremely well and as a reward, you promoted her/him to a different role/team. And, all of a sudden, this rock star employee is now struggling to deliver even on the basics. This is a perfect example of the misalignment between team member’s passion and the core work. Employees sometimes end up accepting the promotion even though they might not be motivated to take on the role due to lack of growth opportunities in the area of their passion in the organization. The role of a leader is not just to reward / recognize the employee butREWARD / RECOGNIZE RIGHT. One of the people managers who used to be a part of my team a few years back, was having a hard time leading his team and his group struggled to deliver even on the basics. He had been with the organization for over 10 years and grew through the ranks to be a people manager. His track record was astonishing. As a programmer (Individual contributor), he had developed applications that gave us a competitive advantage in the market, delivering $xxxM to the bottomline. So, we rewarded him with a people manager role to lead a team. He didn’t have an option but to take it, we didn’t have any growth path / job ladders designed for him as a developer (Individual contributor) at this level. The only way he could reach to this level / compensation was by becoming a people manager. A perfect example of “role fit” issue that we often run in to during internal promotions. Often, the only way for people to grow in an organization is by becoming a people manager which may not be everyone’s passion. This is a huge opportunity to build career ladders for employees to grow in their area of passion instead of force fitting them to areas that they may not get their energy from.
3. Motivate & develop people passion: It’s also the role of the leader to connect different pieces of the role to the passion of the employee. Jake was an awesome team member and a leader. He was one of the best people managers we had in the team, super passionate about leadership and managing people. A very responsive individual but, for some reason, he just wouldn’t attend the required technical training in spite of several reminders from me. It turns out that Jake did not see a value in the technical training and felt that it was a waste of his time. We had a long talk and realized that attending the training and improving his technical skills may not be inline with his career goals or passion but would help him be a better coach to his team and a better manager. This helped Jake connect the areas that he didn’t see as his primary interest areas to his passion which was people management. Often, people need assistance in connecting their passion to key developmental areas to further improve on what they are passionate about.
Aligning passion to the role also drives significant engagement and innovation. It’s the role of the leader to go above and beyond just managing people and identify, hire, develop and grow the right passion required to shape the future of the organziation.


Overseen by pockets, that fall
deep over backs. The secrets pile
high like mould, that mapped out
places of refuge; skylines of needles
and torn sleeves slowly dim under
this retreating light.
Fishing for the facts you know we
each held private and gorging on
amour dents and family lies; a bribe
or two each evening left you feeling well
fed each time, the bile that lined your
stomach a conductor for negativity.
Never one to question, even as you
shifted without guile from street to bar,
from adopted home to field. Each time
the cloud of your presence refused to disperse
and separated you like torn scabs from scars,
that you never allowed to heal.
And once exposed, crawling from beneath
rocks light enough for your back to lift,
yet never fully remove. Running like rattled
rats, your followers deplete yet again and sell
you short for the slightest glimmer of silver.
A Crack in the Shell
Across classrooms and street corners,
that same sense permeates each street
you turned. Your hair never straight enough,
your voice that never broke through collective
chatter and never produced an echo.
Your eyes faced downwards, past laughter
and insults, which those tree-lined roads failed
to shelter. The hand-me-down wardrobe never
kept out this incessant chill, that constantly
lingered without respite.
And past that window in which you sat,
amidst the smoke and dust clouds with no
exit in sight, other than the turn of each day,
that brought you back again to the start
of this perpetual cycle.
Then finally those years in this cluttered
home were over, where education was
gambled for an easy afternoon, and that
shield you relied upon was slowly lifted,
whilst the rest held on for false protection.


Today we celebrate the glorious day of the Resurrection of the Lord, Easter Sunday.
“Pascha [or Easter] is the central event, the time of transformation, of becoming a resurrected people, God’s new people. On this Sunday of all Sundays, Pascha, we celebrate our transformation as a new people. When Christ rose from the grave, death and all other “principalities and powers” that seek to entomb God’s will were forever defeated.
Easter is not simply the miracle of a dead person raised from the grave, but a celebration of power that can shatter death in order that people can freely serve the God of life. In the resurrection of Christ, God’s awesome purposes were on display, revealing a radically new world of peace and harmony and equality and mutuality, about which we can only dream. The Lord of the future has been disclosed to us. Both the incarnation at Christmas and the resurrection at Easter testify to the lordship of Christ. …” (Companion to Book of Common Worship). You may find additional information on what we believe about Easter here.
This morning’s service which includes two beautiful hymns “Jesus Christ is Risen” sung by Chip Houston and Dave Caudill on the piano and “You Have Come Down to the Lakeshore” recorded a few years ago with a duet by our own Lynn Tacket and Chip Houston with Dave Caudill on the piano. You will find the service by clicking here.
Wishing everyone a blessed Easter Sunday! Rev.Melissa

The innovative framework that a German company, UniBright has developed based on their core team’s 20+ years of experience in SAP business integration represents a complete B2B solution. Their platform will be a catalyst in enabling Blockchain technology to reach large and small businesses.
Unibright plans to launch their token sale on April 10th 2018 to expedite the development of their framework and total product readiness. Unibright’s token, UBT will help in the purchase of templates and help unlock smart contract creation features in the Unibright marketplace.
Unibright’s proposition of integrating Blockchain technology to the already existing ERP systems of businesses (large or small) without the need for any special skills or knowledge will shake the billion-dollar global system integration market. They are currently using the SAP ERP-SmartAdapter and Ethereum-SmartAdapter to integrate Ethereum-based SmartContracts into programs residing inside SAP ERP Systems.
Unibright is already offering a traditional cloud-based integration system with process partners such as SAP and Microsoft that enables business processes and data exchanges. The Unibright team has invested the last 18 months in blockchain based integration tool that will change the life-cycle and supply chain data for businesses.
Understanding Unibright’s platform:
- Visual Workflow Designer – No coding or expensive devs required, anyone can create powerful Blockchain-based solutions and design integration workflows just visually. This allows not only Blockchain specialists but also general business users and process specialists to use this. They already have pre-defined templates like “Multi-Party-Approval”, “Request for Quotation”, “Milestone Payments”, etc.
- Contract Lifecycle Manager – this could be called a ‘magic’ button that automatically transforms the visually designed workflows into your platform-dependent code and automatically generating blockchain apt smart contracts.
- Explorer – A dashboard to monitor the ongoing business process across all smart contracts and related systems.
- Connector – These are predefined Smart Adapters that connects existing IT landscape with different blockchains and smart contracts. These can be used across multiple blockchains to move information back and forth.
Stefan Schmidt, CEO of Unibright, recently said,
“Fintech, Shipping, Healthcare, and Supply Chain Management are all fields that could benefit from Blockchain technology”
With the use of blockchain technology, Unibright promotes network verified transaction, history of each asset, privacy and entrenched ledger. Unibright’s goal is to capitalize on the promise of blockchain technology for all its propulsion business.
Aravind Krishna, director at IBM states,
“Companies will be around when the blockchain goes mainstream that creates software that makes it easy for businesses and consumers to actually implement all of blockchains possibilities.”
The UBT token will be sold at $0.14 USD and Unibright is seeking to raise $3 million. Their token sale will begin on on the 10th of April, 2018 and conclude 30 days later on the 10th of May. ETH, BTC, LTC and DASH are the accepted cryptocurrencies.
From Supply chain management, financial transactions and condition based payments to IoT data collection, health management and asset management are just a few examples of areas that can be empowered by Unibright using blockchain technology.

Senior Corps-RSVP is a national service program that fosters civic engagement of volunteers 55+ years of age and inspires people to answer the call to serve; transforming lives and communities where they live. As the nation faced the corona virus pandemic, we were challenged to navigate the unexpected. “Pivoting” strategically allows you to let go of what is no longer working so that you can embrace the possibilities that are more aligned with a new path.
We highlight four Senior Corps –RSVP members that navigated this unexpected change and how they pivoted in these unprecedented times.
Senior Corps-RSVP member Karen Zmrhal serves as a skills-based volunteer with HandsOn Suburban Chicago (HOSC). Like other organizations, the HOSC office closed following Governor Pritzker’s stay at home order. That closed door did not stop Karen from finding a way to “pivot” and continue to do volunteer service in the community. According to Karen, “… it was 11am on a Friday and I just asked myself what can I do to serve in this crisis?” Having volunteered for many years with Community Threads, a resale store serving homeless women and children, Karen was aware of the importance of helping people meet their basic needs. Karen settled on doing a food drive and decided to start where she lives, in Palatine Township. The food collected would go to the Palatine Township Food Pantry. Karen contacted her condo association President, who, within a half hour, gave her permission to stage the food drive. Karen composed the donation letter to distribute to her neighbors. By 2pm that Friday, the message was sent out to the 120 members of Karen’s association asking them to have food donations outside their garage door between 10am and noon on the following Thursday. The response from her neighbors was truly great. With the help of a neighbor, the two filled all the available space in Karen’s car. Karen said, “…people didn’t just donate food. Many of the bags included checks as well!” So what was her next pivot? Karen engaged her church choir and orchestra in a similar food drive for Wheeling Township Food Pantry, with similar results – an SUV filled with food donations.
Lyn Neuhengen, Senior Corps-RSVP member, also a volunteer at HOSC, shared her thoughts on “pivoting” to use her sewing skills to make 100 face masks for Clearbrook’s caregivers and clients. Here’s what she had to say. “We are in the middle of critical times right now. Every day I give thanks that we are blessed with a safe and secure roof over our heads and enough food to eat. But that is not the case for so many. There is much fear and uncertainty. We have to each ask ourselves – What can I do to make a difference for someone in need? With the shortage of protective equipment for caregivers and patients and those in other compromised situations, and being an able sewer, I identified (thru HandsOn) the face mask needs at Clearbrook and decided to help. In addition to sewing, I have participated in food drives, made grocery card donations for needy families, and helped organize group cash donations to six food pantries and three other social service agencies. It somehow helps to give me hope personally to reach out a hand to others at this difficult time.”
Senior Corps-RSVP Intergenerational Pen Pal Program volunteer, Nancy Schmidt, turned to HandsOn Suburban Chicago’s website to see how she could “pivot” during the stay-at-home order. The Pen Pal program she had so enjoyed had just ended in early March. She loved getting to know and engage with her young elementary Pen Pal students. Nancy found a similar activity to bring some joy to residents in a Community Integrated Living Arrangement (CILA) program while they were self-isolating. Nancy become a CILA Pen-Friend, sending cards to the residents living in group homes. The residents are also sending cards back to her.
Senior Corp-RSVP member, Tom Gaynor, and board member of The Historic Arlington Neighborhood Association (HANA.) found a way to lift the spirits of his neighborhood during this pandemic. Tom noticed some people putting up signs in their yards with inspiring messages of hope. Tom’s “pivot” – “I thought it would be great to see even more signs in our neighborhood.” Tom knew there were leftover signs from a campaign he had previously participated in. He asked if the signs could be donated to HANA residents. Tom received a total of seven dozen campaign signs. To create a ‘blank canvas’, he painted them with old paint from previous home improvement projects. “We tested them first to make sure the paint would withstand the weather, and it did so that area kids could paint inspirational messages on them and put them in their yards. The signs went like hotcakes, which proved there was interest.” Kids of all ages have painted signs. The encouraging messages was a great way to lift spirits as families walked with their kids during quarantine.
So many of us are in need in so many different ways, and the only way to overcome this crisis is together. Join Karen, Lyn, Nancy and Tom in catalyzing the power of collective responsibility by signing up for an urgent opportunity today.
If you enjoyed what you read, please leave us a $5 tip. Your donation is essential to the survival of HOSC, which amplifies the reach of local disaster volunteerism efforts while providing long-term K-12 education and aging-at-home services to those most in need .

The Journal of Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking published a study this month that examines the connection between personality type and gambling, Specifically, the question they wanted to answer was this: Do people that are successful at poker share a common personality type? Not surprisingly, their study found that there was a clear link between personality type and winning at poker.
The study determined that people that are the most successful at poker exhibit the following personality traits:
- Cool under pressure
- Doesn’t take things personally
- Tends not to dwell on negative emotions
- Copes well with change and instability
Filtering the findings into the language of DISC, it seems clear that the personality type being described here is the “D-style” personality.
This makes a lot of sense. People with personality type D are risk-takers that can make quick decisions under pressure, are naturally assertive, and can easily adapt to change. Their extroverted nature would make them eager to engage in the face-to-face dynamic that’s involved in Vegas-style table games, and due to their bold and daring style they wouldn’t be scared off by confrontation or fear of failure. D personalities like to take charge and go “all in” at work, so why would it be any different at the poker table?
Of course, winning at poker isn’t the same as liking to play poker. I personality types, for example, share many of the personality traits that would suggest an affinity for poker. They’re extroverted, outgoing, and crave excitement and change. But, the natural impulsivity of an I could sometimes lead to rash decisions, or questionable choices based on the thrill of the moment. Also, the I’s need for excitement and desire to prolong the thrill of the game could make them unwilling to cut their losses and stop when the cards weren’t in their favor. As the study from The Journal of Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking points out, people with traits associated with type I personalities may also have a hard time bouncing back from the negative emotions associated with losing at poker.
Other personality types, too, have traits that don’t lend themselves to success at poker as strongly as the D. For example:
- Someone with a C personality wouldn’t be drawn the randomness and lack of control involved in the game. (Unless, for example, they could assert control by learning to count cards.) As introverts, they would also likely shy away from the face-to-face interaction of live poker.
- An S wouldn’t enjoy the instability of the game. The potential for a rapid reversal of fortune and ongoing change within the game would likely cause an S to steer clear of table games.
So in the end, the success you have at games like poker might not be tied to luck or chance. Personality might play as big of a role as the cards you’re dealt.

Growing up, Camp Dittmer was special to me.
For seven summers in a row as a scout, I attended a week of summer camp at that gem that is located in the Finger Lakes. I followed that up with two full summers as the Nature Director there.
As expected, those weeks and months were full of fun – fishing, boating, shooting, sports, science and so much more. I had a great time and made a lot of friends and memories.
Little did I know at the time, that experience was also laying down a considerable foundation for me. The things I saw and did at Camp Dittmer augmented the intellectual and life lessons provided me by school and family. Summer camp gave me skills that I still use to this day – leadership, public speaking, teaching. I always tell people that I wouldn’t be who I am today without Scouting (Camp Dittmer being a significant part of that).
After graduating from college, my passion never waned for camp. As scoutmaster in my 20s, I took my scouts there every summer. In my 30s and now 40s, I’ve volunteered with the scout council which owns and oversees Dittmer and another camp, Sam Wood.
My goal as a volunteer has always been to ensure children and teens have the same life-changing adventures that I did. That seemed to payoff, as the kids I’ve led or provided services for were having lots of fun and, through the years, I’ve watched many of them grow to become exceptional men. I always think Scouting and camp had a huge part in that.
Those positive vibes and outcomes aren’t unique to Camp Dittmer. You’ll hear others say the same about their beloved summers, whether they attended the Girl Scouts’ Camp Timbercrest, 4-H’s Camp Wyomoco, the church’s Lake Chautauqua Lutheran Center, or many more magical places across the Empire State.
Those places have meant a lot to us. They’ll mean a lot to future generations.
This generation, though? Summer camp might be more meaningful than it ever has been and ever will be. The intertwined world of Covid and government hasn’t been kind kids. They need camp.
The home confinements of last spring, remote learning to close out the last school year, the hybrid and remote learning models of this year, the prolonged absence of sports and clubs, the inability to hug, hang with or even see grandma or grandpa, and the fearmongering of the press and elected officials have all conspired to tear apart the mental and physical well-beings of even the most fortunate of children.
It’s even worse for those not lucky enough live in a loving and positive home. No doubt you’ve heard of the explosive growth in societal ills because of the pandemic’s stressors. Domestic violence, substance abuse and violent crime all rose dramatically last year. Kids were sequestered with those who may not be the best people for them. Maybe they were abused physically and mentally, perhaps they saw dad beat mom, they could have witnessed their mother go down a deep path of drug use. The people those poor souls see outside their homes – teachers, coaches, scout leaders, camp counselors – may be the only positive, respectful and loving adults in their lives. Real heroes, important heroes, to them.
Just like everything else, summer camps were canceled and/or not allowed last year. In the brevity of childhood, a summer lost is a considerable lost opportunity. They’ll never get it back and they can never make it up. That’s lost growth for all kids and lost positivity for those who really need it. For the latter (kids from troubled homes) summer camp might be the only happy, carefree week of their whole year.
All that said, we who run summer camps, parents who put their kids into them, and the children who dream of them need action by the Governor and other state officials.
We need a stamp of approval, and a vision for what camp would look like…now. In the whole scheme of things, summer really isn’t too far away. Camp directors need to plan programs, hire personnel, purchase resources and design Covid protocols. Families need to set aside funds. Clubs and troops need to hold fundraisers. Kids everywhere need something to dream of to get through the pandemic’s miseries.
First and foremost should be the State’s acknowledgement that camp can be done safely.
Schools around the world have shown that environments chock full of children haven’t been a measurable source of spread. Also, the population has become accustomed to the rules and practices of Covid mitigation – this isn’t the strange, new world that it may have been last June; it’s now old hat.
Then, the state must provide the game plan to open.
The rules are there in many sectors; they just need revision and application to the world of resident camps. In an important development, the State has already approved a testing model for weddings (getting tested for Covid beforehand) that would, if equally applied to camps, allay any fears parents and staff might have of community spread at or from the campground.
The science, experience and resources are available to open camps. More importantly, the need is there, too. Kids need camp in their lives, badly. Let’s not deny them a chance at a better summer. Let’s not deny them a chance at a better life.
We can do it.
Albany just has to let us do it.

I'll end my exhortation after dinner.
Lor. Well, we will leave you then 'till dinner-time. I must be one of these same dumb wise men; For Gratiano never lets me speak.
Gra. Well, keep me company but two years more, Thou shalt not know the sound of thine own tongue.
Anth. Farewel; I'll grow a talker for this gear.
Gra. Thanks, i'faith; for silence is only commendable In a neats tongue dry'd, and a maid not vendible.
[Exeunt Gra. and Loren. Anth. Is that any thing now?
Bal. Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in all Venice: his reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff; you shall seek all day ere you find them, and when you have them, they are not worth the search.
Anth. Well ; tell me now, what lady is the fame,
sir. 'Tis not unknown to you, Anthonio,
much I have disabled mine estate,
Than my faint means would grant continuance ;
Anth. I pray you, good Bafanio, let me know it;
Bal. In my school days, when I had lost one shaft, I shot his fellow of the self-fame flight ; The self-fame way, with more advised watch, To find the other forth ; by ventring both, I oft found both. I urge this childhood proof,
Because what follows is pure innocence.
Anth. You know me well ; and herein spend but time,
Bass. In Belmont is a lady richly left,
Anth. Thou know st, that all my fortunes are at sea;
SCENE changes to BEL MONT. Three Caskets are set out, one of gold, another of silver,
and another of lead.
Enter Portia and Nerissa. Per.
Y my troth, Nerisa, my little body is weary
your miseries were in the fame abundance as your good fortunes are ; and yet, for aught I see, they are as sick, that surfeit with too much, as they that starve with nothing ; therefore it is no mean happiness to be seated in the mean ; superfluity comes sooner by white hairs, but competency lives longer.
For. Good sentences, and well pronounced.
Per. If to do, were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches ; and poor mens cottages, Princes palaces. He is a good divine, that follows his own instructions ; I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than to be one of the twenty to follow my own teaching. The brain may devise laws for the blood, but a hot temper leaps o'er a cold decree ; such a hare is madness the youth, to skip o'er the meshes of good counsel the cripple! But this reasoning is not in fashion to chuse me a husband : O me, the word, chuse! I may neither chose whom I would, nor refuse whom I dislike; so is the will of a living, daughter curb'd by the will of a dead father : is it not hard, Nerisa, that I cannot chuse one, nor refuse none ?
Ner. Your father was ever virtuous, and holy men at their death have good inspirations : therefore, the lottery, that he hath devised in these three chests of gold, silver, and lead, (whereof who chases his meaning, chuses you) will no doubt never be chosen by any rightly, but one whom you shall rightly love. But what warmth is there in your affection towards any of these princely suitors, that are already come?
Por. I pray thee, over-name them; and as thou nam'st them, I will describe them; and, according to my description, level at my affection.
Ner. First, there is the Neapolitan Prince.
Por. Ay, that's a Dolt, indeed, for he doth nothing bat talk of his horse; and he makes it a great appropriation to his own good parts, that he can shoe him himself: I am much afraid, my lady, his mother, play'd false with a smith.
Ner. Then, there is the Count Pa/aline.
Por. He doth nothing but frown, as who should fay, if you will not have e me, chuse: he hears merry tales, and smiles not ; I fear, he will prove the weeping phi. losopher when he grows old, being so full of unmannerly sadness in his youth. I had rather be married to a death's head with a bone in his mouth, than to either of these. God defend me from these two !
· Ner. How say you by the French Lord, Monsieur Lc Boun ?
Por. God made him, and therefore let him pass for a man ; in truth, I know, it is a sin to be a mocker ; but, he! why, he hath a horse better than the Neapolitan's ; a better bad habit of frowning than the Count Palatine; he is every man in no man; if a throstle sing, he falls straight a capering ; he will fence with his own shadow ; if I should marry him, I Thould marry twenty husbands. If he would despise me, I would forgive him ; for if he love me to madness, I shall never rees quite him.
Ner. What fay you then to Faulconbrlige, the young Baron of England ?
Por. You know, I fay nothing to him, for he understands not me, nor I him; he hath neither Latin, French, nor Italian ; and you may come into the court and swear, that I have a poor pennyworth in the English. He is a proper man's picture, but, alas ! who can converse with a dumb show? how oddly he is suited! I think, he bought his doublet in Italy, his round hose in France, his bonnet in Germany, and his behaviour
Ner. What think you of the Scottish lord, his neighbour?
Por. That he hath a neighbourly charity in him ; for he borrow'd a box of the ear of the Englishman, and swore he would pay him again, when he was able.
I think, the Frenchman became his surety, and sealed
the young German, the Duke of : Saxony s nephew ?
Por. Very vilely in the morning when he is sober, and most vilely in the afternoon when he is drunk ; when he is best, he is a little worse than a man ; and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast ; and the worst fall that ever fell, I hope, I shall make shift to go without him.
Ner. If he should offer to chuse, and chuse the right casket, you should refuse to perform your father's will, if you should refuse to accept him.
Por. Therefore, for fear of the worst, I pray thee, set a deep glass of Rhenish wine on the contrary casket; for if the devil be within, and that temptation without, I know, he will chase it. I will do any thing, Nerisa, ere I will be marry'd to a spunge.
Ner. You need not fear, lady, - the having any of these lords : they have acquainted me with their determinations, which is, indeed, to return to their home, and to trouble you with no more suit ; unless you may be won by some other sort than your father's imposition, depending on the cakets.
Por. If I live to be as old as Sibylla, I will die as chaste as Diana, unless I be obtain'd by the manner of my father's will: I am glad, this parcel of wooers are so reasonable ; for there is not one among them but I doat on his very absence, and wish them a fair departure.
Ner. Do you not remember, lady, in your father's time, a Venetian, a scholar and a soldier, that came hither in company of the Marquiss of Mountserrat ?
Por. Yes, yes, it was Basanio, as I think, he was so call'd.
Ner. True, Madam ; he, of all the men that ever my foolish eyes looked upon, was the best deserving a fair lady.
Por. I remember him well, and I remember him wor. thy of thy praise. How now ? what news.
Enter a Servant.


Now that it’s been pointed out by Michael Moats at Fiction Advocate, I’m realizing the gaggle of David Foster Wallace-related stuff that happened in 2012. The great deal of material that has appeared this year that is in some way connected to DFW has inspired Moats to title his (incomplete . . .) encyclopedic recounting of all this stuff, the “Year of David Foster Wallace” (part 2 is here).
Matt Bucher, administrator of the wallace-l listserv, also weighed in with, “Consider the Year of David Foster Wallace.”
To be honest, however, I don’t necessarily see this trend slowing down too considerably in 2013, as, for example, DFW’s name was mentioned a number of times in Joel Lovell’s recent review-essay in The New York Times, “George Saunders Has Written the Best Book You’ll Read This Year” (a book, titled The Tenth of December, that I very much look forward to reading). Bucher also points out that that we will probably be receiving at least 4 more books that revolve in the DFW orbit in 2013.
Though posted in November, I want to draw attention to Chris Osmond also briefly reflecting on DFW’s pedagogy in his blog post, “Hideous Teachers.” Beginning another semester of SC today where my students will be reading DFW (yet again) makes me realize how valuable his writing can be in the classroom.


Air Force coach Fisher DeBerry, expressing frustration Tuesday with the Falcons’ slumping performance, attributed the latest loss in part to No. 20 TCU’s having more black players who “can run very, very well.”
DeBerry (above), in his 22nd year at the Air Force Academy, first mentioned the academy’s lack of minority players compared to other schools while talking to reporters Monday.
He said Air Force needed to recruit faster players. “We were looking at things, like you don’t see many minority athletes in our program,” DeBerry told The Gazette of Colorado Springs.
When questioned about the remarks during his weekly luncheon Tuesday, the coach didn’t hesitate to elaborate.
“It just seems to be that way, that Afro-American kids can run very, very well. That doesn’t mean that Caucasian kids and other descents can’t run, but it’s very obvious to me they run extremely well,” DeBerry said in remarks first broadcast Tuesday night by KWGN-TV in Denver.
I don’t have much to add except that when and if DeBerry is terminated, perhaps Paul Hornung won’t be the first guy interviewed.

Chances are, you’ve got a sad little corner in your house that needs some love…
And a corner gallery is definitely the answer! This might seem a bit daunting at first but I promise you it isn’t. I recently shared the whole process of freshening up this little corner of the house over on my IG stories, so I thought it was only right to put the full post up here so that you can refer to it in the future. It was soooo fun brainstorming with you guys about what to do in this spot and going back and forth throughout the whole process. Read on for how to create your own corner gallery wall along with some tips and tricks.
Wearing: Madewell jeans and Mango linen top.
Below is the before and after. Most of you initially wanted me to fill this spot with plants, but sadly it’s a bit too dark to support any major plant life, so I wanted to try something else instead.
How to create a corner gallery wall
Put together your frames and art To decide what you want to put on the wall, I suggest choosing either a symmetrical/matching style that has similar art and frames, or something a bit more organic (like mine) with a mix of frames and art. If you go with something more organic, keeping it in a simple colour palette will give it a cohesive feel.
Make paper templates Using newspaper or brown paper, trace your frames and then cut these rectangles out, which you will use for experimenting with the lay out. This is a great way of working out the best configuration before you put the gallery up. Using tape, put your rectangles on the wall and move them around until you like the layout.
Tips for your corner layout If you are going with a random layout but still want it to have some structure, a good idea is to line up the sides of the frames with the line of the corner of the wall, then let the the frames work their way out randomly from there. I preferring doing this with one wall rather than both.
Put your frames up. For my gallery walls I use 3M Command Strips, which have a sort of velcro like fastening for the walls. However, make sure you test these out on each wall you intend to use them on first before you apply your whole gallery. To do this, place them somewhere on the wall out of site for a day, and then remove them to make sure they don’t remove any paint. IN my experience they work well but I have noticed on some walls they remove paint.
Below I have shown you how you can line up the sides of the frames next to the corner and then let them flow out naturally.
If you’re looking for some new art to create your gallery with, make sure to check out my post about where I buy affordable art!
