![]() ![]() I’m all for you being able to have your say as long as I’m allowed to have mine. I can vent about liberals and liberals can vent about conservatives, when in a free speech environment, but isn’t it interesting that censorship, sorry “protecting us from misinformation” always shuts down the conservative viewpoint. The few that do arrive will sell for 30K over MSRP. The Sienna has a 3 year wait list in the US, the LX 600 has a 6 year waitlist in Japan so I doubt you will see many GX 550s in the US anytime soon. The new GX 550 is the revamped Prado.It won't really matter as almost all Toyota/Lexus products are basically vaporware, they don't don't things anymore. (only the LX 600) The Land Cruiser Prado, sold almost everywhere except the US has always been sold here as the Lexus GX. Toyota has not brought the 300 series Toyota Land Cruiser into the US market. Booker The LX 600 is the US/Lexus version of the 300 series (updates in 2022) Land Cruiser.While the 120V charger is not meant to be a primary charger, it is often used by owners to top up their car’s battery when a proper charging station is not available.Worse than burns are inconsiderate jackasses unplugging your 120V charging cord while the vehicle is charging, and leaving the also-charging electric scooters untouched. Photos of melted and damaged cords have appeared on the internet since the first problems emerged late in 2011. A GM spokesman said that the chargers are being replaced to “offer a more consistent charging experience.” We presume that will allow owners to avoid the melted-G.I Joe-esque charging plugs as shown in the photo above.The new design features a revised plug and a thicker cord for the 120V outlet side of the unit. About 9,500 charging units will have to be replaced. There have been other anecdotal reports of malfunctioning cords being replaced by General Motors at fan sites like GM initially blamed wiring problems in the electrical outlets, but the company has announced that they will replace all the 120V chargers in all 2011 and some 2012 models, with a new unit. General Motors will be replacing the 120-volt charging cords that come with the Chevrolet Volt after one utility company had their cord melt during charging. ![]() ![]() ![]() The one thing we need in teachers, coaches, Gurus, is empathy. I dont know if any other parent has been let down like this, but I wanted to share what I went through, to make everyone else aware.We live in a changed world where our children are suddenly being deprived of so much. I did not think that an institute so reputed would act so petty. If my decision meant being penalised later, shouldnt she have been vocal about that and her policies? Why this lack of transparency? And why dont they have all this in writing?The amount I lost isnt big, but my disappointment here is. I chose the offline option for her, because I knew she would be disengaged in an online medium and I did not want her to go through that. We cant do anything about the fees now.As a parent, I understand my child better than anyone else, and know what environment she learns in best. When I was so open with her, shouldnt she have been explained all their policies upfront? Her explanation was, we gave you the option of online classes, but you didnt take it. I politely reminded her that I had already paid, and been transparent about the fact that my daughter would not be attending the online classes.But the owner simply told me today that they had a no refund and no adjustments policy.I am appalled at this kind of behaviour. In what would be a rather unexpected, unsavoury experience, the owner told me to pay for the offline classes. In good faith, I did not ask for a refund then, because I wanted my daughter to resume class after the lockdown with the same teacher.The institute opened its offline classes today (02nd August 2021), and I reached out to the owner today, to say that my daughter would join the offline classes, as discussed. The owner told me that my daughter could attend online classes, but I told her that my daughter learns better in an offline setup, and so I will wait till the lockdown opens up again. However, little did I know that my experience would soon turn bitter.I paid owner the fees for the month of April on 02nd, but the very next day, a lockdown was declared. In fact, I also recommended the classes to my friends and relatives. I signed my 4 and a half year old daughter up for dance and drawing classes at DAZZLE DANCE FITNESS STUDIO a few months ago, and was very happy with the work the institute does. ![]() ![]() However, for the dedicated production of hydrogen, both technologies are at the same technology readiness level (TRL9) since they require policy support and improvements to stay competitive with traditional hydrogen production technologies based on unabated fossil fuels. Alkaline electrolysers are a more mature technology with a long history of deployment in the chlor-alkali industry. This indicates a degree of uncertainty for future manufacturing capacity deployment, which could be strongly influenced by each country’s supportive policy framework.Īlkaline and PEM (proton exchange membrane) electrolysers are already commercially available. Of all the plans by 2030, less than 10% have reached a final investment decision (FID), and 25% have been announced with an unspecified location. Europe and China would still lead, with around a fifth of this capacity each. ![]() Announced electrolyser manufacturing capacity could meet the targets in current national strategies, and it represents almost three-quarters of the capacity needed in the NZE Scenario. Manufacturers have started to expand their production capacity based on current market growth (with an increasing number of large-scale projects announced), expectations of future demand growth, and because large manufacturing facilities represent a long-term decision.īased on company announcements, the global manufacturing capacity for electrolysers could reach more than 130 GW per year by 2030, one-third more of the capacity in the pipeline at the end of 2022. With the capacity additions of electrolysers for dedicated hydrogen production in the order of tens to hundreds of MW in the past few years, this technology’s global manufacturing capacity is currently largely underutilised (even including deployments related to chlor-alkali applications). Europe and China account for two-thirds of global manufacturing capacity. Global electrolyser manufacturing capacity reached almost 11 GW per year in 2022, a more than 25% increase compared to the previous year. To get on track with the NZE Scenario, in which more than 550 GW of electrolysers are installed globally by 2030 – between 1.5 and 3 times the capacity of all announcements – the project pipeline needs to scale up much faster. But uncertainty on the development of these projects persists, with the main barriers being uncertainty of future demand, lack of clarity on regulation and certification, lack of infrastructure to deliver hydrogen to the final consumers and, in the case of emerging economies, very limited access to low-cost finance. Europe and Australia lead the scene, with half of the capacity together, followed by Latin America with around 15% of the announced projects. If all the projects currently in the pipeline are realised, global electrolysis capacity could reach 170-365 GW by 2030. ![]() At the same time, announcements from the Chinese market indicate a trend toward larger projects, in the hundreds of MW scale.īased on the current pipeline of projects under development and their expected operation dates, global electrolysis capacity could reach almost 3 GW by the end of 2023, a more than four-fold increase in total capacity compared to 2022. If the Ningxia Solar Hydrogen Project in China – a 150 MW project which accounted for almost two-thirds of the global additions in 2021 – is considered as an outlier, the 2022 growth was aligned with previous years. There was significant growth in annual capacity additions in 2021, a record year for deployment, with more than 200 MW of electrolysis capacity becoming operational.ĭespite promising project announcements, capacity additions slowed down to 130 MW in 2022, with total installed capacity reaching about 690 MW. However, the pace of deployment of electrolysers for dedicated hydrogen production only started to accelerate in the late 2010s. Electrolysers are already widely used in the chlor-alkaline industry to produce chlorine and sodium hydroxide, with installed capacity having reached more than 20 GW. ![]() ![]() Pool elements such as lighting, pool fencing and landscaping happen in the final stages.Excavation of the site is followed by construction and installation.Once approvals have been given, building work is scheduled and starts.Plans are drawn up, including landscaping and complementary outdoor elements and submitted to council for a DA (Development Application) or a certifier for CDC (Complying Development Certificate).We can come to your home for an initial consultation to hear your ideas, look at your site and discuss all the possibilities, from luxury inground pools to a range of fibreglass pools and even indoor pools.Water usually bubbles out or shoots a stream.You want a pool, but just where and how do you start?

Kieniewicz hopes that visitors will be inspired to “see how interesting some of these stories actually are and be keen to learn more.” In some sense, the exhibit-like the data it shows-is itself a tool for discovery. The map became an iconic and invaluable tool for Snow to both prove his hypothesis and communicate science to those who doubted him. Snow thought that water contamination-not miasma or “bad air,” prevailing ideas at the time-lay at the root of sweeping cholera epidemics hitting the city. She points to an 1855 map of London’s SoHo district by another English physician, John Snow, which shows cholera deaths clustered around a local well. “These diagrams are both tools of discovery as well as scientific communication, so in a sense highlighting the importance of data visualization to the overall scientific process,” says Kieniewicz. Infographics have long played a role in scientific endeavors. Sure, we have better tools for crunching the numbers today, but datamongers of the Victorian era were equally dedicated to recording all that they could observe. Like Nightingale’s diagram, Howard’s work also questions the idea that “ big data”-the exponential and unstructured growth of observations-is a modern phenomenon. ![]() In the weather and climate section, the work of amateur 19th-century meteorologist Luke Howard, who obsessively measured barometric pressure outside of his London home every day, doesn’t seem that far off from today’s citizen scientist movement. The visuals might at first seem totally unrelated, but subtle parallels-between the Great Chain of Being, Darwinian evolution, and modern taxonomic trees based on genetic data-show humanity’s continual efforts to classify and understand life and its ties to nature.Ĭircos diagrams showing the similarities between human genes and those of an opossum, as part of "Circles of Life." Another visual called “Circles of Life” by Canadian artist Martin Krzywinski depicts the genetic similarities between humans and other animals, including chimps and chickens, through colorful circle graphics generated by a computer program called Circos. The newest items in the exhibit are works such as One Zoom Tree, an interactive program developed by scientists at the Imperial College London that allows users to zoom in and explore different branches of the evolutionary tree. The tree of life section includes the oldest document in the collection: an image of the ancient Greek concept of the Great Chain of Being, depicted in 1617 by English physician Robert Fludd. And in fact, data is no longer static, but it’s actually something through which we can explore our world and interact,” says Johanna Kieniewicz, who curates the exhibit for the British Library.įor example, in the public health section an interactive program called Epidemic Planet (developed by researchers at Northeastern University and the ISI Foundation in Italy) allows visitors to tinker with parameters and see how an epidemic would spread across the globe under different settings. “The really interesting and exciting difference between then and now is the degree to which we can actually use the data. Though perhaps beautiful individually, maps of ocean currents from the 1700s look a little underwhelming compared to the technological wizardry of computer simulations in NASA’s “ Perpetual Ocean,” a swirling depiction of the world’s ocean currents that the library has projected onto a large screen in the exhibit. For one thing, technology has made modern visualizations much more dynamic. Obviously, a lot has changed over 400 years. Each section features infographics and data visualizations from past and present-allowing visitors to draw conclusions about how scientific visuals have changed, or stayed the same, over the centuries. The exhibit contains three sections: public health, weather and climate, and the tree of life. An exhibit at the British Library entitled “ Beautiful Science” displays 400 years worth of infographics, each with its own fascinating backstory. Today, her rose diagram remains iconic, but Nightingale certainly wasn’t the first to visualize her data, nor would she be the last. The diagram’s author, famed mother of nursing Florence Nightingale, had a talent for statistics. Tacked on to the appendix of a British government health report in 1858, a rose-shaped diagram presented a striking finding: during the Crimean War, far more soldiers died of disease in hospitals than of wounds on the battlefield. ![]() ![]() Just as the stockholders or shareholders of a business have a say in the ownership and operations of a company, the member-owners of a co-op have a say in how the cooperative operates. In the case of co-op housing, the people who live in a particular building are members of the cooperative that owns the building. In the case of a grocery co-op, the people who shop at the store are owner-members. The people who benefit from the products or services of a cooperative business own the cooperative business. One of those goals is to create a better world by working together and by shifting the focus of the business to place people over profit to build a more inclusive economy. People who join cooperatives or who are among the founding members of a co-op often have the same shared values, meaning they are willing to work together towards a common goal. Why are people who are members of a food co-op willing to volunteer or donate their time to work at the co-op? In part because of the community focus of a cooperative and the values behind co-ops. Some cooperatives are open to all, but provide special incentives to members, such as a discount on products or services. In some cases, only members of a cooperative can shop at it. For one thing, it’s likely that the people who are members of the cooperative, or part-owners of the co-op, are also working at the co-op, stocking the shelves and ringing customers up at the register.įor another thing, some cooperatives limit who can shop there or use their services. There will be aisles full of food and checkout registers where people can make their purchases.īut if you were to look more closely, or take a peek behind the scenes, you’d be likely to notice that the food co-op operates slightly differently from a typical grocery store. For example, if you were to visit a grocery store cooperative, it is very likely that it will look like any other grocery store. To an outsider, a cooperative might look very similar to any other type of corporation. The International Co-Operative Alliance defines a cooperative, or co-op, as “an autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly-owned and democratically controlled enterprise.” In other words, cooperatives are created by people who have a specific need and who are willing to work together to operate and organize a company that will meet that need. When the people who use the products and services a company has to offer own and operate the company, it’s known as a cooperative. Aside from the ownership structure, there are a few other distinct features that set cooperatives apart from other types of business. A company can incorporate, forming a corporation that is owned by fewer than 100 people (an S-corp) or hundreds or even thousands of people (a C-corp). When two or more people own a company, it’s often a partnership. When an individual owns and operates a company, it’s often a sole proprietorship. ![]() Who owns a business determines the type of entity it is.
