LEOTEK to Restore Safety to Memphis Streets for Drivers and Pedestrians

LEOTEK production facility in San Jose, CA

SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LEOTEK Electronics USA LLC, a leading manufacturer of LED streetlights, announced its involvement with the City of Memphis streetlight improvement project. LEOTEK’s LED streetlights were chosen for this conversion project based on its reputation of delivering safety, performance, reliability, and value to cities worldwide.

In 2022, the city of Memphis saw a staggering 78 pedestrian deaths. Many Memphis drivers attribute these accidents to lack of visibility on the city streets and roadways. Citizens have also raised concerns over public safety and increased crime in neighborhoods where streetlights are out. Improved illumination is the first step in providing safety and security to the community. In August, Mayor Strickland stated: “Improved lighting improves safety in every neighborhood in Memphis. With these new lights, no longer will criminals have a safe harbor to operate under cover of darkness. People will feel safer on their streets.”

For pedestrians and drivers, the LED lighting project will provide much-needed visibility for safety at intersections and provide families with a sense of security at night. The beauty of the high-pressure sodium (HPS) to LED streetlight conversion project has two significant benefits. First, the project will essentially pay for itself from the electrical cost savings over the life of the program. Second, the city took one step closer in becoming greener by reducing greenhouse gas and its carbon footprint. A city the size of Memphis should save about 55% or more on electricity and reduce greenhouse emissions by more than 26,000 metric tons per year.

Ewing Liu, Vice President of Sales for LEOTEK, states, “We have aided major cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, and Seattle with their conversion to LED streetlights, and now we are pleased to add Memphis to that growing list. With over 3 million LEOTEK streetlights installed, we are on a mission to provide safety, cost savings and energy efficiency for more sustainable cities around the world. We are proud that LEOTEK streetlights, shipped from our production facility in San Jose, CA, have already started to be installed in the Memphis community.”

About LEOTEK 
LEOTEK is a leading global manufacturer of LED street, roadway, area and traffic signal lighting products. LEOTEK streetlights are installed in over 3 million applications worldwide. LEOTEK traffic signal modules are installed in over 30% of America’s intersections, including over 14 million modules installed in North America and over 18 million traffic signals worldwide.

Green Comet Zooming Our Way; Last Visited 50,000 Years Ago

A comet is streaking back our way after 50,000 years.

The dirty snowball last visited during Neanderthal times, according to NASA. It will come within 42 million kilometers (26 million miles) of Earth on Wednesday before speeding away again, unlikely to return for millions of years.

Discovered less than a year ago, this harmless green comet already is visible in the northern night sky with binoculars and small telescopes, and possibly the naked eye in the darkest corners of the Northern Hemisphere. It’s expected to brighten as it draws closer and rises higher over the horizon through the end of January, best seen in the predawn hours. By February 10, it will be near Mars, a good landmark.

Skygazers in the Southern Hemisphere will have to wait until next month for a glimpse.

Bigger, brighter, closer

While plenty of comets have graced the sky over the past year, “this one seems probably a little bit bigger and therefore a little bit brighter and it’s coming a little bit closer to the Earth’s orbit,” said NASA’s comet and asteroid-tracking guru, Paul Chodas.

Green from all the carbon in the gas cloud, or coma, surrounding the nucleus, this long-period comet was discovered last March by astronomers using the Zwicky Transient Facility, a wide field camera at Caltech’s Palomar Observatory. That explains its official, cumbersome name: comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF).

On Wednesday, it will hurtle between the orbits of Earth and Mars at a relative speed of 207,000 kph (128,500 mph). Its nucleus is thought to be about 1.6 kilometers (1 mile) across, with its tails extending millions of kilometers (miles).

The comet isn’t expected to be nearly as bright as Neowise in 2020, or Hale-Bopp and Hyakutake in the mid- to late 1990s.

But “it will be bright by virtue of its close Earth passage … which allows scientists to do more experiments and the public to be able to see a beautiful comet,” University of Hawaii astronomer Karen Meech said in an email.

Scientists are confident in their orbital calculations, putting the comet’s last swing through the solar system’s planetary neighborhood at 50,000 years ago. But they don’t know how close it came to Earth or whether it was even visible to the Neanderthals, said Chodas, director of the Center for Near Earth Object Studies at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California.

When it will return, though, is tougher to judge.

Every time the comet skirts the sun and planets, their gravitational tugs alter the iceball’s path ever so slightly, leading to major course changes over time. Another wild card: jets of dust and gas streaming off the comet as it heats up near the sun.

“We don’t really know exactly how much they are pushing this comet around,” Chodas said.

A moving time capsule

The comet — a time capsule from the emerging solar system 4.5 billion years ago — came from what’s known as the Oort Cloud, well beyond Pluto. This deep-freeze haven for comets is believed to stretch more than one-quarter of the way to the next star.

While this comet originated in our solar system, we can’t be sure it will stay there, Chodas said. If it gets booted out of the solar system, it will never return, he added.

Don’t fret if you miss it.

“In the comet business, you just wait for the next one because there are dozens of these,” Chodas said. “And the next one might be bigger, might be brighter, might be closer.”

India’s First Nasal COVID-19 Vaccine Launched

 

This week India launched its first nasal COVID-19 vaccine, four months after it received approval for its restricted emergency use among adults in the country.

The mucosal vaccine, made by India’s leading vaccine maker, Bharat Biotech, is based on technology licensed from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, in the U.S.

It is administered in the form of drops in the nose and stimulates an immune response in the mucous membranes of the tissues lining the nasal cavity, upper airways and lungs.

Originally called BBV154 and now sold by Bharat Biotech as iNCOVACC, the nasal vaccine was launched by Indian Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya on Thursday, Republic Day, a national holiday in the country.

“Proud to launch iNCOVACC, the world’s 1st intranasal vaccine for COVID … A mighty display of India’s research and innovation prowess under PM Narendra Modi Ji’s leadership. Congratulations to Bharat Biotech for this feat!” Mandaviya posted on Twitter.

He called the vaccine a “historic achievement & a testimony to the innovative zeal” of India’s scientists.

In a statement, Bharat Biotech said that iNCOVACC, the “world’s first intranasal COVID vaccine for primary series and heterologous booster” is now available on CoWIN, India’s vaccine portal that digitally tracks people’s vaccination status.

It will cost 800 rupees ($9.80) in private hospitals and 325 rupees ($4) in government hospitals. A heterologous booster is the vaccine dose for people who have already received two doses of Covishield or Covaxin, the two common Indian COVID vaccines.

“iNCOVACC is a cost-effective COVID vaccine which does not require syringes, needles, alcohol wipes, bandage, etc., saving costs related to procurement, distribution, storage, and biomedical waste disposal, that is routinely required for injectable vaccines,” the statement said.

“Amid growing COVID-19 cases and emerging variants of the highly transmissible virus, a booster dose of the vaccine becomes imperative. As [a] needleless vaccination, Bharat Biotech’s iNCOVACC will be the world’s first such booster dose … The nasal delivery system has been designed and developed to be cost-effective in low- and middle-income countries,” the statement added.

Dr. Krishna Ella, chairman of Bharat Biotech, told ANI news agency that iNCOVACC was “easy to deliver” since no syringe is required and that it resulted in a broader immune response as compared with injectable COVID vaccines.

In a Sept. 7 news release, the Washington University School of Medicine said that since the adenoviral nasal vaccine — which is known as iNCOVACC in India — is delivered via the nose, right where the virus enters the body, it has the “potential to block infection and break the cycle of transmission, as well as prevent lung damage.”

“The nasal delivery system was designed and developed to be cost-effective, a feature that is especially important in low- and middle-income countries, and the vaccine can be stored in a refrigerator. Receiving the vaccine requires only a brief inhalation, a major plus to the many people who prefer to avoid needles,” the statement said.

Dr. Michael S. Diamond, a professor of molecular microbiology, pathology & immunology, and a co-inventor of the nasal vaccine technology, was quoted in the news release as saying: “Nasal vaccines induce the type of protective immunity that we think will prevent or limit infection and also curb pandemic transmission of this virus.”

On Friday, Diamond told VOA that “it is exciting” to see the deployment of iNCOVACC in India as a nasally delivered vaccine and booster.

“The continued waves of COVID-19 infection necessitate new strategies to overcome transmission. By generating immunity in the upper respiratory tract at the portal of entry of the virus, this vaccine has the potential to better limit [the] spread of the virus than other approaches,” Diamond said.

Monaco Energy Boat Challenge: 17 teams selected for the Energy Class

Monaco Energy Boat Challenge: 17 Teams Selected for the Energy Class

The contestants will be divided in 3 emblematic categories: Solar Class, Open Class and Energy Class, the latter having closed registrations.

MONACO, Jan. 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Monaco Energy Boat Challenge is back. The annual meeting for alternative energy sources, taking place 3-8 July in Monaco, will welcome newcomers, some unusual projects and new initiatives to celebrate the 10th anniversary. The contestants will be divided in 3 emblematic categories: Solar Class, Open Class and Energy Class, the latter having closed registrations. After ten years in existence, early innovations have already progressed to marketable products, paving the way towards a more responsible future for the environment in terms of energy. “Faced with the climate emergency, it is imperative that living proof of progress replaces promises,” says HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, “to guarantee and pass on a quality legacy to future generations.”

While contestants in the Open Sea and Solar classes still have time to refine their applications, those accepted for the Energy Class have just been revealed. For this edition, 15 universities, two industry teams and ten nationalities will be lining up on the start for the Energy Class. A total of 17 teams that have been approved by the technical committee who examined the dossiers of 19 applications with a tooth comb.

Those given the green light include newcomers like Aritra from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras for its hybrid hydrogen-battery propulsion project, with the idea of adding a wave energy capture system using regenerative suspension in the future. Alongside them the Sea Sakthi team from Kumaraguru College of Technology, India, will be competing for the second consecutive year. Also new to the contest are two new Italian teams from Genoa and Messina, and a new French and German team. There are nine hydrogen projects in this class, launched 2018 by YCM which supplies the teams with a one design catamaran hull. It requires all the ingenuity of participants to design the cockpit and the most efficient and enduring propulsion system, using renewable energy sources of their choice, all from a given quantity of energy (10kWh maximum stored on board).

Looking forward to the initiative, a new corporate Mentoring Program will start in February through the 8th July for teams who can benefit from bespoke support. Set up to strengthen ties between the yachting industry and the university teams competing, this initiative enables experts in the sector to give participants targeted advice specific to their project and objectives. The program complements the now well-established Job Forum that puts industry professionals into contact with talented future yachting engineers, an initiative that positions yachting as a generator of jobs.

Organised by Yacht Club de Monaco in partnership with Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, and support of Credit Suisse, BMW, SBM Offshore and shipyard Oceanco, the event is under the aegis of Monaco, Capital of Advanced Yachting. For the first time, YCM is joined by MarineShift360 so contestants can measure and manage their boat’s impact on the environment.
