Liquid Technology Equipment Donation Gives New Life to Children’s Science Center Virtual Programs during Covid-19

NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — When the Covid-19 pandemic forced the Children’s Science Center Lab in Fairfax, VA to close its doors to the public on <span…

NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — When the Covid-19 pandemic forced the Children’s Science Center Lab in Fairfax, VA to close its doors to the public on Friday, March 13, 2020, the museum quickly pivoted to a virtual model. Hoping to stay connected to its Northern Virginia audience and continue to serve their mission of inspiring the love of STEM, the staff began filming anything and everything they could. From science demos and chemistry experiments to animal talks, they recorded and live streamed the creative and educational content on their cell phones. The museum’s financial viability is dependent on entrance fees, and there would be none of those for the foreseeable future. Little did they know at the time how very long their doors would be closed to the public nor how many cell phone recorded programs they would need to deliver.

Liquid Technology Managing Partner, Richard Greene learned about the Children’s Science Center challenges from a client, and the industry-leading IT Asset Disposition service provider responded. As a parent, Greene understands the importance of such services first-hand. He wanted to make the science center’s virtual offering experience a better one. To make that happen, Liquid Technology donated two television studios’ worth of equipment, including cameras, webcams, green screens, computers for editing, and more. The donated equipment had an immediate impact.

«This new equipment is a real game-changer. It allows us to interact with our audience better than ever,» said Audrey Charlwood, Program Coordinator for the Children’s Science Center. «We particularly love using the green screen to transport our audience into different environments in line with what we are teaching.»

«As informal educators, we like to have fun while teaching science and get up and move around. The mobile tripods have been integral to making our virtual experience fun and interactive. It’s wonderful to now have technology that is as mobile as we are!» added Children’s Science Center Program Manager Ashlyn Salvage.

«Liquid Technology is committed to digital equity and STEM education, and we are a corporate partner to two nonprofits in that space,» said Greene. «Our equipment donation to the Children’s Science Center was a natural extension of those efforts. We are thrilled the equipment has made such an incredible difference in their ability to deliver quality programming to their audiences.»

A pandemic boost for the Science Center — the virtual offerings have transformed its audience from local to national. Children from around the country can celebrate their birthdays with virtual parties, attend virtual camps and participate in lab programs with experienced STEM Educators. «Reaching more children with our STEM education programs is a silver lining,» said Charlwood. «Liquid Technology’s donation has made it possible for us to make those programs the best they can be.»

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, Digital Industrial and Energy Guidebook, highlights critical market issues—complex market messaging, several me-too solutions, value-creation uncertainties, and quick-hit benefits realization—that restrain organizations from wide-scale digital solution adoption. The study helps them address these issues by comprehensively evaluating solution providers’ ecosystems. The guidebook serves as a digital solution selection tool as it identifies the top 50 digital best practitioners across industries, characterized in three main categories—an enterprise-specific best practice, industry-specific best practice, and function-specific best practice.

Primarily driven by operational excellence, organizations throughout industries are likely to adopt digital solutions. As a result, the addressable market for digital solutions in industrial and energy markets is estimated to reach $543.66 billion by 2025 from $449.12 billion in 2020, registering growth at a compound annual growth rate of 3.9%. However, the market experienced adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and is expected to recover from Q1 2021, with COVID-19 subsidies in Q4 2020, and surpass pre-COVID levels by 2024.

For further information on this analysis, please visit: http://frost.ly/5bx

«Automation is a critical part of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) and will drive the shift to Industry 5.0,» said Rohit Karthikeyan, Industrial Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. «Additionally, established industrial automation companies will have an appetite for digitalization featuring intelligent systems with sensory, context-aware, and analytics capabilities, which will offer them a competitive edge.»

Rohit added: «Collaborative robots or cobots have the potential to reshape major manufacturing areas, such as industrial design, training, and collaboration. Going forward, declining deployment costs and efforts to automate low-skilled jobs will prompt the adoption of artificial intelligence (Al)-based robots in manufacturing in the next 10 years.»

Organizations’ strong attempt to cut operational costs, enhance competitive advantage, and generate higher revenues will further push the demand for digital solutions, presenting lucrative growth prospects for solution providers. Market participants will benefit from the following:

  • Automation vendors should leverage their installed information base to understand end users’ process requirements and collaborate to identify pain points and offer customized digital solutions.
  • Solution providers must develop comprehensive plans covering data access, management capabilities, flexibility, scalability, and innovation roadmaps to provide value to their customers.
  • Organizations must develop a robust digital strategy across the value chain, from origination/sourcing to delivery, to navigate profit pressures by increasing operational performance.

Digital Industrial and Energy Guidebook is the latest addition to Frost & Sullivan’s Industrial Automation & Process Control research and analyses available through the Frost & Sullivan Leadership Council, which helps organizations identify a continuous flow of growth opportunities to succeed in an unpredictable future.

OAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Berrett-Koehler Publishers is proud to announce this new book.

New Book by Denise Collazo – «Thriving in the Fight: A Survival Manual for Latinas on the Front Lines of Change» – Publishes February 23, 2021

Denise Padín Collazo, longtime activist, nonprofit thought leader, and senior adviser for Faith in Action, will release her first book, «Thriving in the Fight: A Survival Manual for Latinas on the Front Lines of Change.»

At a time when so many in this country are struggling to contend with a new era of racial and gender oppression, we need the power, the wisdom, and the experience of women of color now more than ever, said Rev. Alvin Herring, Faith in Action executive director. Denise’s book is a clarion call to Latinas in the movement—and to the rest of us—that they are ready and poised to lead with hope, love, and light.

Drawing on her own experiences of triumph and failure, along with stories from fellow leading Latina activists, Collazo discusses three keys to thriving in the movement for social change: leading into your vision, living into the fullest version of yourself, and loving past negatives that hold you back. She also lays out three signs that you may be surrendering: wishing for a future reality to emerge, wondering where your limits are, and waiting for permission and answers to come from others. As well, she explains how you can integrate family and work, step out of the background and claim your leadership potential, confront anti-Blackness in your own culture, keep focused on your ultimate purpose, and raise the necessary resources to keep fighting for justice.

Collazo is the first Latina, the first woman of color, and the first woman period to raise a family and stay in the work of community organizing at Faith in Action, an international progressive network of 3,000 congregations and 2 million members. A social justice leader and gifted speaker, Collazo’s work has been featured in the Miami Herald, Nonprofit Quarterly and Forbes.com, and she serves on the Forbes Nonprofit Council. She is a graduate of Harvard University, and resides in Puerto Rico. http://www.DeniseCollazo.com

WILMINGTON, Del., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — DuPont Clean Technologies today announced it has signed a contract with ISAB S.r.l. («ISAB», wholly owned by LUKOIL) to revamp the refinery’s existing trickle bed diesel hydrotreater at the Priolo Refinery in Siracusa, Italy with the IsoTherming® Hydroprocessing Technology. ISAB commissioned DuPont for the project in an effort to increase unit capacity to a target of 205 m3/hr (31,000 bpsd), while also extending catalyst cycle length.

IsoTherming® Diesel Hydrotreaters enable refiners to produce high-quality, low-sulfur fuels that comply with increasingly stringent environmental requirements, but at lower energy consumption rates and operating costs than trickle bed hydroprocessing units. The IsoTherming® technology is commercially proven to process a wide range of feedstocks, from kerosene to vacuum gas oil, including 100 percent light cycle oil. The units are designed to provide refiners with consistent utility savings of 30-60% and capital cost savings potential up to 30% compared to trickle bed technologies.

«We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with ISAB on this project,» said Kevin Bockwinkel, global business manager, IsoTherming® Hydroprocessing Technology. «In addition to producing high-quality, low sulfur fuels, our IsoTherming® technology will grant ISAB the opportunity to process more difficult, cracked feedstock without sacrificing product quality all while extending catalyst cycle length. Utilizing the IsoTherming® technology allows us to accomplish all of this without additional catalyst volume, thus maximizing the benefit to the refinery without the need for significant capital investment. We look forward to expanding upon our strong relationship with ISAB and continuing it for years to come.»

Startup of the IsoTherming® Diesel Hydrotreater at the Priolo Refinery is expected to take place by 2024.

The IsoTherming® hydroprocessing technology utilizes a novel liquid-phase reactor system offering distinct advantages over conventional hydroprocessing technologies in that it uses hydrogen and catalyst more efficiently. The IsoTherming® hydroprocessing technology is suitable for a wide range of applications, including 100% kerosene hydrotreating, 100% light cycle oil (LCO) hydrotreating, transmix hydrotreating, diesel hydrotreating, FCC feed hydrotreating (VGO hydrotreating), mild hydrocracking, dewaxing, gas-to-liquid (GTL) upgrading, and heavy oil upgrading for both grassroots and revamp configurations. Licensed and marketed by DuPont as part of its Clean Technologies portfolio, the IsoTherming® technology has been licensed in 27 refineries worldwide with capacities ranging from 1,500 bpd (82 kmta) to 80,000 bpd (3,900 kmta), offering refiners a lower CAPEX and OPEX solution than conventional hydroprocessing options.

RICHMOND, Va., 23 de febrero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — El siguiente aviso fue emitido conjuntamente por Robins Kaplan LLP, Gustafson Gluek PLLC y Joseph Saveri Law Firm y ha sido autorizado por el Tribunal de Distrito de EE. UU. para el Distrito Este de Virginia, en In re: Litigio Antimonopolio del Comprador Indirecto de Puertas Interiores Moldeadas (n.º 3:18-cv-00850-JAG).

La demanda, In re: Litigio Antimonopolio del Comprador Indirecto de Puertas Interiores Moldeadas, Caso n.º 3:18-cv-00850-JAG, pendiente en el Tribunal de Distrito de EE. UU. para el Distrito Este de Virginia, alega que JELD-WEN, Inc. y Masonite Corporation («demandados del acuerdo») acordaron fijar los precios de las puertas interiores moldeadas («Interior Molded Doors, IMD») y, como resultado, los consumidores y las empresas que compraron indirectamente IMD independientes no destinadas a la reventa pueden haber pagado más de lo que deberían. Si bien los demandados del acuerdo han aceptado llegar a un acuerdo, no han aceptado el hecho de que hayan cometido un delito o sean responsables o deban dinero o beneficios a los demandantes. El Tribunal no ha decidido quién tiene razón.

¿Quién está incluido?

Usted es un miembro del grupo del acuerdo si compró indirectamente una IMD independiente no destinada a la reventa entre el 1 de marzo del 2014 y el 4 de septiembre del 2020. Las compras deben haberse realizado en un estado de comprador indirecto o mientras se residía allí al momento de la compra. «Indirectamente» significa que compró la IMD independiente de alguien diferente a los demandados del arreglo (por ejemplo, compró una IMD independiente en Home Depot, Lowe’s o en un almacén de madera).

Las IMD son un tipo de puerta de interior fabricada mediante un proceso de intercalado de un marco de madera y un núcleo hueco o sólido entre dos paneles de puerta moldeados, en lugar de fabricar toda la puerta con madera maciza. Una «puerta interior moldeada independiente» es una IMD que no está incorporada como parte de un producto más grande (como la compra de una vivienda) o de un servicio (como la instalación de la puerta en una vivienda). Por ejemplo, usted está incluido si es (a) un consumidor que compró una IMD para instalarla en la vivienda O (b) una empresa o un contratista comercial que compró una IMD para incluirla como un servicio proporcionado a un cliente o para su propio uso. Las IMD independientes contienen patrones y no incluyen puertas al ras que no tienen patrones ni relieves.

Las definiciones de IMD, IMD independientes y la lista de estados de comprador indirecto, entre otras, están disponibles en el sitio web del acuerdo www.InteriorMoldedDoorSettlement.com.

¿Qué ofrece el acuerdo?

El acuerdo establece un fondo del acuerdo total de $19,500,000 («fondo del acuerdo»). Una vez deducidos los gastos de notificación y administración, los honorarios de los abogados, las indemnizaciones por servicios a los representantes del grupo y los gastos del litigio, según lo aprobado por el Tribunal («fondo neto del acuerdo»), el fondo neto del acuerdo estará disponible para su distribución entre los miembros del grupo del acuerdo que presenten oportunamente reclamos válidos. Se estima que cada miembro del grupo del acuerdo que presente un reclamo válido recibirá al menos $25. Los pagos se basarán en una serie de factores, entre los que se incluyen, como mínimo, la cantidad de reclamos válidos presentados por todos los miembros del grupo del acuerdo y la cantidad de IMD independientes compradas por cada miembro del grupo del acuerdo.

¿Cuáles son mis derechos y opciones?

Presentar un reclamo: Para recibir un pago del acuerdo, debe presentar un reclamo a través de www.InteriorMoldedDoorSettlement.com y presentar (o imprimir y enviar por correo) un formulario de reclamo. Se debe presentar un formulario de reclamo válido en línea o con sello postal antes del 25 de junio del 2021.

No hacer nada: Se le incluirá en el grupo del acuerdo y estará sujeto a la decisión del Tribunal, pero no recibirá ningún pago. Renunciará a sus derechos de demandar a los demandados por el acuerdo sobre los reclamos en este caso. 

Excluirse: Puede excluirse («optar por no participar») del acuerdo presentando una solicitud de exclusión al administrador del acuerdo que se recibirá a más tardar el 2 de junio del 2021. Si lo hace, no podrá recibir un pago del acuerdo, pero conservará el derecho a demandar por su cuenta en relación con cualquier reclamo que forme parte del acuerdo. 

Objetar: También puede objetar cualquier parte de este acuerdo. Las objeciones deben enviarse por correo al secretario del Tribunal y al administrador del acuerdo y se recibirán a más tardar el 2 de junio del 2021. 

Los detalles sobre cómo excluirse, objetar y enviar por correo su formulario de reclamo están disponibles en el sitio web del acuerdo.

¿El Tribunal aprobó el Acuerdo?

No, el Tribunal ha fijado una audiencia para el 13 de julio del 2021 a las 9:00 a. m. para determinar si se aprueba el acuerdo, las indemnizaciones por servicio de los representantes del grupo que no superarán los $56,000 en total, los gastos de los abogados que no superarán los $5,000,000 y los honorarios de los abogados que no superarán el 33 % del fondo del acuerdo. Si hay objeciones o comentarios, el Tribunal las considerará en ese momento. Usted o su abogado pueden comparecer en la audiencia por su cuenta.
