Global search engine, Google plans to equip one million young Africans with digital skills in the next year. The training is meant to encourage youths to start their own businesses. Julie Scheier reports
By DINA ARÉVALOPort Isabel-South Padre Presseditor@portisabelsouthpadre.com…you’re busy making other plans.Things don’t always go according to plan. Whether those plans are long term goals, or even something as minor as what to eat for lunch, our plans don’t always work out.Sometimes, you’re standing at home plate expecting a fastball and see that it’s a changeup instead. Just as you’re mentally sighing in frustration, you take a swing and end up knocking it out of the park. That’s sort of what happened with me on Sunday.With Beach-N-Biker Fest coming to the Island, I had been busy making plans for how I wanted to approach covering the event. A trained photographer, I was excited to put my photojournalism chops to the test again, but Mother Nature had other ideas.For days the weather forecast had warned of severe weather: rain, wind, the possibility of hail. And since areas north of the Valley were indeed under such an onslaught it wasn’t entirely out of the realm of possibility to see that here. It did end up raining, but not much, and not very hard. Still, I think the gloomy forecast may have kept some riders away.So that’s what found me on Sunday afternoon, meandering around the Convention Centre somewhat distraught by the fewer number of riders around in comparison to Saturday’s bustle. I had gotten shots of almost everything I had planned to, except one thing: perspective shots of a group of bikers crossing the Causeway — one of the most iconic landmarks of the Laguna Madre region.As I walked around I began to lose hope. The bikers who remained didn’t appear to be part of groups or clubs. The few I approached confirmed as much. I had had a vision of the images I wanted to create, and as I continued to walk around, I began to see that vision evaporate. I texted a couple of friends my frustrations while I walked out to the far end of the parking lot where I’d left my car.I sat there still talking with them for a few minutes when my parents called to say they wanted to have lunch. Sunday afternoon lunches are a bit of a tradition with us, so the call spurred me back into movement. On my way back to the mainland I saw about half a dozen riders sitting in the grass outside a restaurant. Hope flickered.I turned around and introduced myself, telling them of the photographs I’d been trying to get. Turns out they are part of a riding club from the Upper Valley called the Iron Saintz. I asked if I could join them when they crossed the Causeway, and they agreed! We met up later that afternoon and I got to ride with one of their founders.It’s only a little more than two miles across the bridge, but those few minutes spent crossing it were euphoric for me. The images I’d imagined in my mind were realized thanks to the Iron Saintz. I was so ecstatic by the time we reached the Lighthouse that I couldn’t keep the smile off my face.Sometimes you make plans and they fall through. Sometimes, things end up working out anyway. My thanks to the Iron Saintz! And as always, don’t forget to visit us online at www.portisabelsouthpadre.com.Want the whole story?

Ilustrasi bahan bakar amonia sebagai alternatif bahan bakar berkelanjutan pesawat di masa mendatang. Foto: businesstraveller.com Pesawat listrik sejak tahun 1970 sebetulnya sudah dikembangkan oleh banyak pabrikan di dunia. Namun demikian, lagi-lagi, ada konsekuensi besar yang harus dibayar. Bila menggunakan pesawat listrik, beban dan durasi penerbangan harus lebih kecil dari pesawat berbahan bakar cair atau fosil.Baca juga: Lima Alternatif Pengganti Bahan Bakar Fosil Pesawat di Masa Depan, Nomor Dua Aneh!Paul McElroy, pimpinan tim komunikasi untuk Boeing 777 ecoDemonstrator, pernah mengatakan, dengan menggunakan bahan bakar pesawat berkelanjutan (SAF) niscaya dapat menghasilkan emisi gas rumah kaca bersih hingga 80 persen. Berbeda dengan bahan bakar fosil yang melepaskan karbon serta meningkatkan jumlah CO2 di atmosfer. Saat ini, perjalanan udara disinyalir menyumbang antara 2-3 persen dari emisi karbon dunia, tetapi persentase untuk itu setara dengan 4,5 miliar perjalanan penumpang, pergerakan 64 juta metrik ton kargo dan sepertiga dari perdagangan global dunia. Di samping itu, penerbangan juga menopang 65 juta pekerjaan. Namun, analisis penerbangan memperkirakan bahwa lalu lintas penumpang akan naik 3,5 persen per tahun hingga 2037. Bila itu terjadi, tentu persentase sumbangan emisi karbon dunia dari perjalanan udara akan semakin meningkat.Dari sekian banyak pabrikan pesawat, Airbus adalah raksasa dirgantara pertama yang menerapkan SAF pada pengiriman pesawat ke para pelanggannya. Hal itu adalah bagian dari komitmen Airbus dalam program Initiative Towards sustAinable Kerosene for Aviation (ITAKA) yang bertujuan untuk mempercepat komersialisasi SAF di Eropa.Airbus mengaplikasikan SAF tersebut dengan mengangkut komponen rakitan besar, seperti bagian sayap dan badan pesawat, menggunakan Super-Transporter Beluga. Pesawat tersebut sudah menggunakan bahan bakar pesawat berkelanjutan, berasal dari minyak goreng daur ulang. Diharapkan hal ini akan mengurangi emisi CO2 sekitar 120 metrik ton per bulan dari proses penyatuan perakitan, kira-kira setara dengan yang dikeluarkan sekitar 130 mobil.Dikutip dari sandiegouniontribune.com, sebetulnya, di beberapa negara (bukan hanya pabrikan) sudah mulai menerapkan kebijakan mendorong penggunaan energi hijau (ramah lingkungan) pada pesawat. Ambil contoh Norwegia. Negara yang terletak di Semenanjung Skandinavia bagian ujung barat yang berbatasan dengan Swedia, Finlandia, dan Rusia tersebut sudah mulai melakukan kajian-kajian untuk mewujudkan pesawat listrik menguasai udara di masa mendatang. Salah satunya melalui Norway Research Association.Norway Research Association ditugaskan oleh pemerintah Norwegia, bekerjasama dengan beberapa negara lain, untuk mempelajari teknologi baterai yang pas dan mencari tahu persepsi publik terkait pesawat listrik, dengan nilai investasi US$1,65 juta atau Rp25,3 miliar (kurs 15,370). Meskipun belum menemukan hasil yang memuaskan, namun pemerintah sudah berikrar akan membuat seluruh penerbangan jarak pendek dalam negeri di Norwegia wajib menggunakan pesawat listrik pada 2040.Sejalan dengan pemerintah, penduduk Norwegia yang berjumlah sekitar 5,4 juta orang juga sudah menyadari betapa pentingnya penggunaan energi terbarukan di dunia penerbangan. Tak hanya itu, mereka juga mulai mengkampanyekan “flight shaming”, guna membuat orang-orang di sekeliling mereka yang masih bepergian menggunakan pesawat agar merasa malu karena telah menyumbang percepatan pemanasan global dan mendorongnya untuk beralih ke moda transportasi lain, terutama kereta.Seorang peneliti energi dan transportasi di University College London, Andreas Schafer, mengatakan, untuk mewujudkan penggunaan pesawat listrik di masa mendatang butuh investasi yang tak sedikit. Misalnya, untuk biaya pengembangan baterai saja, setidaknya butuh sekitar US$23 miliar atau Rp353 triliun. Prinsipnya, bagaimana caranya membuat baterai dengan ukuran kecil atau paling tidak seperti ukuran baterai yang ada saat ini (baterai pesawat) namun dengan kapasitas yang jauh lebih besar. Tak hanya itu, pengembangan baterai juga mencakup durasi pengisian daya yang harus jauh lebih cepat dari yang sudah ada.Itu baru baterainya saja. Untuk mengembangkan pesawat listrik yang sepenuhnya baru, seperti desain canggih, kemampuan jarak pendek, dan ruang yang sempit, setidaknya juga membutuhkan investasi sekitar US$23 miliar. Tentu saja angka tersebut belum termasuk dana tambahan ketika terdapat kendala di sana sini.Baca juga: Inilah Enam Teknologi Terdepan untuk Tingkatkan Efisiensi Bahan Bakar PesawatSelanjutnya, balik lagi pada poin awal, bila menggunakan pesawat listrik, beban dan durasi penerbangan harus lebih kecil dibanding pesawat berbahan bakar cair atau fosil. Padahal, di saaat yag bersamaan, tren penerbangan dunia, setiap tahunnya terus mengalami lonjakan. Artinya, saat proses transisi terjadi, akan ada ‘kekacauan’ besar. Di satu sisi pesawat tak sanggup terbang jauh dan terdapat kekurangan di sana sini, di sisi lain, kebutuhan penumpang terhadap pesawat semakin dinamis. Tentu bisa dibayangkan apa yang terjadi.Pada akhirnya, untuk mewujudkan mobil listrik lebih banyak dari pada mobil berbahan fosil saja sejauh ini prosesnya masih jauh dari kenyataan. Apalagi pesawat, yang mekanismenya jauh lebih rumit ketimbang mengoperasikan mobil listrik di darat.Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading… RelatedLima Alternatif Pengganti Bahan Bakar Fosil Pesawat di Masa Depan, Nomor Dua Aneh!21/02/2020In “Analisa Angkutan”Inilah Enam Teknologi Terdepan untuk Tingkatkan Efisiensi Bahan Bakar Pesawat20/03/2020In “Destinasi Udara”Bahan Kimia Penyebab Ledakan di Beirut Jadi Alternatif Bahan Bakar Pesawat Ramah Lingkungan25/08/2020In “Analisa Angkutan”
The NBA is unique in the professional sports landscape.Because there are only five players on the floor at any one time, the great player makes a huge difference. We just witnessed the impact Kawhi Leonard, one might be the best player in the league right now, had on the Toronto Raptors, leading them to their first championship.The association also gives the most power to the players. Since LeBron James and Chris Bosh joined Dwyane Wade in Miami, the star players have tried to form “super teams” to help them compete for championships, and team executives have tried to put their franchises into positions to attracts the stars.So, if you didn’t draft a superstar, and you a not a destination for superstars, what do you do?Obviously, in Cleveland, the Cavaliers benefited from James being from Akron and wanting to bring a championship to the area. It helped that Kyrie Irving was already here for James’ return, and they had assets to deal for another star, Kevin Love, who remains with the team.But James left after the 2018 season, so GM Koby Altman has to try to rebuild the organization. He is doing things a little differently, and quite frankly, we have no problem with it.Altman has put his eggs into the player development basket. If you aren’t in a position to draft superstars, then developing them yourself seems to be a good plan.That why he hired a long time successful college coach in John Beilein, and this past week, hired University of California women’s head coach, Lindsay Gottlieb, as an assistant.Beilein’s reputation is putting together very successful college teams without the five star recruits that Duke, Kentucky, and North Carolina usually get. He took good high school players and turned them into very good college players, some even became first round picks in the NBA Draft.No doubt, it’s a gamble hiring a 66-year-old who has never coached in the NBA, and hiring a coach who led a Division I women’s program as an assistant. But why not?If you are a team playing someone better than you, and you just rely on talent, you most likely aren’t going to win, right?So, you try something different. Like Cleveland State did when Kevin Mackey became head coach, you full court press for the entire game, using waves of players.That might be your best chance.Or maybe Altman is copying the Raptors blueprint. Not a lot of high draft choices there, but they developed players like Pascal Siakam (27th overall pick from New Mexico State), Fred VanVleet (undrafted), and Norman Powell (second round pick) into contributing players on a title team.We have praised the Cavs for not taking on “knuckleheads”, players who can and will be disruptive when things aren’t going well. In addition, it appears they also have guys who aren’t afraid of working to get better.And that means what Beilein, Gottlieb, and the rest of the organization will be teaching should fall on willing years, and it may just work.The Cavs’ plan seems to be worth the risk because it isn’t the same old thought process NBA teams use. Why not get good teachers to teach the game? Related TopicsCavsfeaturedJohn Beilein Mark Warmuth

(USA TODAY Sports Images)In the immediate aftermath of the crazy UCLA-SMU finish, no one knew what to think about the goaltending call that put UCLA in the lead, for good, with 10.7 seconds remaining. Yanick Moreira, the player who was called for goaltending, essentially admitted that he committed the violation, cried and blamed himself for the loss. The television announcers and analysts were as clueless as the audience. On CBS, John Adams, the NCAA national coordinator of men’s basketball officiating, spoke in circles and did absolutely nothing to clarify the situation.On FTW, I initially wrote that I thought the refs got the call right, or that theoretically going to replay (if it was allowed) would have been inconclusive. But as the hours passed and CBS, TNT, TBS and TruTV kept showing the replays more and more, the answer became clearer and clear.This wasn’t goaltending.This wasn’t close to goaltending. UCLA shouldn’t have been awarded three points, and SMU should have had the ball with a two-point lead and 10.7 seconds left. A few free throws and the Mustangs would have had their first NCAA win since 1988.https://vine.co/v/OYz6FvUz2QjIt should have been that way. The major fallacy held by most people is that interfering with a ball that will hit the rim is automatically goaltending. But that’s not true. Here is the definition of goaltending, as written in the official 2014 & 2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Rules.“Violations- Goaltending. (Rule 9-17.5). When the ball contacts the backboard and any part of the ball is above the rim on a field goal attempt, it is considered to be on its downward flight. In such case, it is goaltending when the ball is touched by a player as long as it has a possibility of entering the basket.”
Those last 11 words are key: “as long as it has a possibility of entering the basket.” By that phrasing, a ball that is clearly short, long or wide, but might hit the rim anyway, is not eligible for goaltending. Just, for example, think of a baseline three that’s woefully short. The top half of the ball would thud against the rim and either fall straight down or bounce back toward the shooter. In that case, if an opposing player grabbed the ball on the way down, but before it grazed the rim, that would not be a goaltend, by rule.Let’s apply that to the shot from UCLA-SMU. Clearly this ball is long. It looks like it will make contact with the rim but, at best, it would graze it and slide off. But there is no chance of this ball going in. None at all. Even the craziest carom couldn’t get that ball through that hoop. It’s going long no matter what.The refs didn’t see it that way. Ordinarily, you couldn’t rip them for that. This play was almost impossible to call in realtime and it’s a crime that the NCAA seems to allow video review for almost everything else except goaltending. But then, after a few dozen views, you’ll notice the ref who made the call.
It would have been hard for any of the three officials to blow the whistle, but especially for the one farthest from the basket. The official on the baseline made no such ruling and he was standing right under the basket. The ref on the near sideline is only signaling that it’s a three-pointer. So a 50/50 call in realtime that ended up not being goaltending was only made because a ref 28 feet away decided that he could tell a ball on its way down “had the possibility of entering the basket.”But, again, the real problem isn’t with the call, it’s with the inability to review it. With no recourse for the wrong call, the most storied college basketball program of all time stole a win from a school that was playing in only its second tournament in a quarter-century.You got jobbed, SMU. Be angry. Be very, very angry.

Chattanooga (3-2), which trailed 36-13 midway through the second quarter, cut the lead to 53-51 on Ansley Chilton’s 3-pointer with 2:49 left.“It felt like an out-of-body experience,” Chilton said. “I’ve always watched Tennessee play on their court growing up, and it was so cool to actually be out there and compete against Tennessee.”DeShields collected four points, an assist and a steal during a 6-2 run that extended the lead to six. Tennessee stayed in front the rest of the way, though Jasmine Joyner’s 3-pointer at the buzzer cut the final margin to two.This represented a breakthrough performance for DeShields, who had shot a combined 2 of 16 and had totaled four points in victories over Penn State and Syracuse last week. She failed to score against Syracuse.DeShields is shaking off the rust that accumulated while sitting out the 2014-15 season due to NCAA transfer rules. She also is still recovering from a leg injury that Tennessee coach Holly Warlick has labeled as shin splints.“I’m definitely feeling better every week, and I do expect to be 100 percent very soon,” DeShields said.Tennessee earned its 26th straight home victory.“It wasn’t very pretty,” Warlick said. “I’m not very happy.

KNOXVILLE — Tennessee’s Diamond DeShields is starting to show the form that made her one of the nation’s top freshmen at North Carolina two seasons ago.Four days after being held scoreless, the former Atlantic Coast Conference rookie of the year knew it was time to step up for her new team. DeShields responded by scoring 17 points and making numerous big plays down the stretch Monday as No. 4 Tennessee hung on for a 59-57 triumph over Chattanooga.“I wanted to give more,” DeShields said. “I felt like the past few games, I was kind of holding myself back and I just wanted to give more. I knew I could do more than my past two performances, so whatever the outcome was, I was trying to give more effort.”Tennessee (4-0) needed that kind of effort to survive Chattanooga, which nearly came all the way back from a 23-point deficit as it attempted to stun the Lady Vols for the third time in the last four seasons.

A year ago Yerry Mina was still a Palmeiras player, about to go through a remarkable twelve months with ups and downs. In the January transfer window, the then 23 year old moved to Barcelona and quickly the Catalan media were on his back. There were tales from training of people being surprised at Mina’s level… it was thought he was nowhere near ready to play for the Spanish club, and there were doubts if he ever would be.Mina had cost Barcelona just under €12m and there was a worry whether they’d be able to get the money back. A loan elsewhere in La Liga was thought to be the best option.Then the World Cup happened, and the defender was one of the stars of the show.After countless transfer rumours he eventually joined Everton for around €30m, and is still trying to find his feet in the Premier League.Barcelona have been looking to add numbers in central defence since and after Mina was their first Colombian, they’ve signed another in Jeison Murillo from Valencia.The pair are friends, and showing there’s no hard feelings, Mina has spoken to Catalan newspaper Mundo Deportivo to give his own backing to the transfer, and a scouting report: “He is a very technical player, he likes to go out with the ball, he is very clear and he delivers the ball very well. He is quick, he goes well to the tackle and is good with his head.”Murillo will hope he’s not as easily cast aside as his friend. If he is, maybe Barca can look towards Everton again.by Taboolaby TaboolaSponsored LinksSponsored LinksPromoted LinksPromoted LinksTrending TodayForge of Empires – Free Online GameIf You Like to Play, this City-Building Game is a Must Have.Forge of Empires – Free Online GameUndoRaid: Shadow Legends | Free DownloadEven Non-Gamers Are Obsessed With This RPG Game (It’s Worth Installing!)Raid: Shadow Legends | Free DownloadUndoKeto减肥1個簡單的妙招一夜「融化」腹部贅肉（今晚試試）Keto减肥UndoCNBC InternationalHere’s How Big Businesses in Singapore Are Managing the Impact of COVID-19.CNBC InternationalUndoPerfect-Dating.comReveal Tung Chung As The Best City to Date for Love & RomancePerfect-Dating.comUndoDating.comFind out where single guys are hanging out in Tung ChungDating.comUndoCoworking Space | Search AdsThe cost of shared office in Hong Kong might surprise youCoworking Space | Search AdsUndoTheTopFiveVPNEnjoy Netflix Now Without Any RestrictionsTheTopFiveVPNUndo熱門話題小心會長過頭…網友推爆:「真的長得超誇張!」熱門話題Undo
