Popular event with a twist : The Mega Challah Bake is coming
The Mega Challah Bake is coming to Montreal on Thursday, September 11. It is expected to attract 1,000 women from all walks of life and affiliations. Equipped with apron, flour, water and eggs, attendees will each knead and shape their own challah, in what is being billed as an evening of "inspiration, celebration and solidarity with Israel."
The Mega Challah Bake has become cultural phenomenon, selling out in cities across the US and Canada, including Toronto, which recently sold out with 1,500 attendees. The popularity of these events seems to reflect a trend to a newfound interest in the ancient ritual of making challah. "Challah represents a universal nurturing element, one that brings blessing into a home" says Shterna Samama, one of the organizers of the Montreal event. "As an ancient mitzvah, it has important cultural and emotional significance."
Creating together as a group, Samama says, allows women to tap into that meaning, while making a statement of solidarity as a community.
Given the difficult summer that Israel, and by extension the Jewish community worldwide has experienced, organizers feel that an evening of unity and solidarity with Israel before the Jewish High Holidays is timely and important. "A mitzvah for Israel that is wonderful and nurturing", asks Samama with a smile, "is there anything better?"
The Montreal Mega Challah Bake is being held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on 6600 Cote De Liesse, and is co-sponsored by all Chabadcenters in the greater Montreal area. The event is open to women and girls aged 16 and up. Tickets are $20 if purchased before September 1 or $25 after that date. Tickets are by advance purchase only. As the event has sold-out in previous cities, organizers advise early reservations to avoid disappointment. For more info, go to www.megachallah.com or facebook.com/megachallahmtl.
Here is a look at a previous such event.

Infinitely More coming to St. Philip's Church September 10
Three-time Covenant Award Nominee, Infinitely More, will be coming to St. Philip's Church at 25 Brock North in Montreal West for a concert on Wednesday evening, September 10.

Free digital television by antenna still exists in Montreal
Marking an anniversary
While folks like me have drifted towards Fibe TV, there are still those who watch the small screen with the assistance of a good old fashioned antenna. On Monday, September 1 Kirkland's John Lancer marked the third anniversary of Canada's analog-to-digital transition. "Many enthusiasts such as myself mark this anniversary to show appreciation to local broadcasters and raise awareness of free digital television by antenna," he says. "The benefits of good-old TV by antenna is still completely legal, free and now in stunning digital HD quality, yet few people know about it!"
According to Lancer, the Montreal over-the-air (OTA) TV community has been progressively growing since the "DTV renaissance" of broadcast TV, especially on social media. "There is a very active and growing community forum on digitalhome.ca, where users share tips and help others find antennas that work best in their area," he says. "There is even a Twitter account dedicated to informing Montrealers of the status of local stations and providing other OTA news."
John Lancer and his antenna.
Lancer points to new products that have come out making it easier for people to cut the cord from Bell and Videotron. For example, new PVR models are on the market that hook up directly to an antenna and provide nice program guides, allowing people to mesh antenna TV with on-demand streaming services. "You no longer need to pay big bucks or subscribe to pay TV just to record your favorite shows in HD," he insists. "Although existing antennas still work with DTV signals, new digital antennas are much more compact, powerful and discrete. Rabbit ears have been replaced by paper-thin indoor antennas and an outdoor antenna the size of a barbeque grill will bring in most if not all Montreal and US channels when mounted on a roof."
"People think they have to pay for satellite or cable to get HD television when in fact a modest antenna can bring in most of the major broadcast networks," Lancer continues. "Free over-the-air channel selection in Montreal has actually increased since 2009 and bit-by-bit more people are going back to antenna TV, and if desired, complementing this with streaming on-demand content such as Netflix over the internet. The people that are going for this more affordable alternative to cable TV are called cordcutters. This past year new devices came out that allow you to add your coax antenna to your home WiFi network. This means you can turn a computer or laptop into a DVR, and watch live TV from your antenna on your mobile devices using downloadable apps or media programs. For example, I watch Jimmy Fallon in bed on my iPad, streamed directly from my antenna-not the internet - so there is no hit to my internet data caps.
Live sports will still be coming to Montreal via over-the-air as Roger's CityTV will be carrying two hockey games per weekend, as well as NFL football, racing circuits, MLB and the NBA. "The best part of having an antenna for the NFL is getting the SuperBowl American feed directly from the Burlington stations with the real Superbowl commercials," Lancer notes, who says Côte-St-Luc, NDG, Lachine and other areas of the West Island are goldmines for free TV. A modest antenna setup will easily get 20 plus channels, pulling in even the American networks from the US border such as CBS, NBC, ABC, FOX, PBS, CREATE, PBS+, CW, MeTV and PBS World. All stations are digital and most in either 720p or 1080i HD. All of this is free once you've paid for your antenna setup.
I wish to thank John for this education.

One of the long-term themes running through the blog is how to encourage people to be more innovative. This a really tough question because the foundation of innovation is what people believe, say and do. In other words, becoming innovative is about changing the culture of the organization and this is always a long haul.
I remember talking to someone more than two years ago at the beginning of his innovation project. Back then, as we talked, his timeframe for completion seemed to be months rather than years. Occasionally we talk on the phone about progress. Like the war, it's not going to be over by this Christmas, or the next, or even the one after that. Some parts of the organization are really moving ahead, others are still trying to work out what innovation is.
Some organizations have the additional challenge of working with really smart and individualistic people. They will happily pursue their own projects but getting them to share and collaborate is a challenge. Think of organizations dominated by scientists or engineers. Academics are the same, too. I once was told that the best definition of a university was a group of people, united only by a common parking problem. So how do we foster collaboration and innovation in this environment?
A while back, Tim wrote a really nice post based on a conversation we had with one of our network research partners. He had the challenge of working in a firm with a lot of very smart but individualistic people but he resisted the idea that encouraging collaboration was like 'herding cats'. Instead, he talked about creating a garden for herding butterflies. The quote that we got from the manager is worth repeating here.
To create that garden, we can think about job design, supporting processes that encourage the generation and execution of ideas, and ways to get those innovations to spread through the business. However, I recently been thinking about the physical 'landscape' for innovation.
Last month I ran an introductory strategy course for medical students as part of the UQ Medical School's medical leadership initiative. As part of the course we worked on a strategy for a new medical business within one of Brisbane's largest private hospitals. On the final day, the medical director gave comments on the presentations from the students and it wasn't until then that I realized what was at the core of this business.
Jim is an outstanding manager and very experienced medical director. The medical consultants who work within the hospital are essentially sole traders and Jim can't force them to do anything through coercion. However, Jim also knows that the performance of the hospital depends upon the ability of the consultants to know who else is in the hospital and what sort of expertise they have. Finding the right medical expertise at the right time is very important for getting the best outcomes for patients. Jim says that he spends a lot of time talking to people and finding out how he can help them to do their job better but another thing that he does is to consider the hospital 'space'.
It seems obvious, but Jim thinks a lot about where to put buildings and important services. For example, the case-study my medical students were looking at was a new piece of equipment to treat cancer. By placing it in a very visible and 'high-traffic' part of the hospital, it becomes a place where a variety of cancer consultants will meet with the operators and each other. To extend the butterfly metaphor, it's a well-positioned flower bed to encourage collaboration.
Tim and I have a few flower beds like this in the business school. There is a coffee service on the balcony and a lot of chance collaboration happens in the mail room too. What 'gardening' in your organization could you do to improve collaboration?
John Steen is a Lecturer in Innovation Management in the University of Queensland Business School. He blogs about innovation at the Innovation Leadership Network.


This course explores how societies construct meaning through belief systems. Symbolic systems that will be explored cross-culturally include indigenous religion, witchcraft, magic, shamanism, and cultural spirituality. Students will study the evolution of religious values over time and the impact of religion on society.

In late May, the Connecticut House of Representatives passed a bill that would vastly expand the pregnancy anti-discrimination statute in the state. Just days ago, the State Senate also approved the measure. The Governor is now expected to sign the bill.
terminate a woman's employment because of her pregnancy.
deny to that employee, who is disabled as a result of pregnancy, any compensation to which she is entitled as a result of the accumulation of disability or leave benefits accrued pursuant to plans maintained by the employer.
These elements will not change in the new bill.
fail or refuse to make a reasonable accommodation for an employee or person seeking employment due to her pregnancy, unless the employer can demonstrate that such accommodation would impose an undue hardship on such employer.
limit, segregate or classify the employee in a way that would deprive her of employment opportunities due to her pregnancy.
discriminate against an employee or person seeking employment on the basis of her pregnancy in the terms or conditions of her employment.
deny employment opportunities to an employee or person seeking employment if such denial is due to the employee's request for a reasonable accommodation due to her pregnancy.
force an employee or person seeking employment affected by pregnancy to accept a reasonable accommodation if such employee or person seeking employment (i) does not have a known limitation related to her pregnancy, or (ii) does not require a reasonable accommodation to perform the essential duties related to her employment.
retaliate against an employee in the terms, conditions or privileges of her employment based upon such employee's request for a reasonable accommodation.
Also in the new bill, "Undue hardship" means an action requiring significant difficulty or expense when considered in light of factors such as (A) the nature and cost of the accommodation; (B) the overall financial resources of the employer; (C) the overall size of the business of the employer with respect to the number of employees, and the number, type and location of its facilities; and (D) the effect on expenses and resources or the impact otherwise of such accommodation upon the operation of the employer.

The genocide of indigenous peoples throughout the Americas represents one of the greatest and most extensive human catastrophes in history. The pace and magnitude of the destruction varied from region to region over the years, but it can safely be concluded that, in the two-and-a-half centuries following Christopher Columbus' ''discovery'' of the Americas in 1492, probably 95% of the pre-Columbian population was wiped out—by disease as well as by deliberate policy on the part of the Spanish, the French, the English, and, ultimately, the American-born heirs of those colonizing nations.

Ras Mortimer Planno/Bro Kummie
Tags: kummie, mortimer, planno
Ras Mortimer Planno was born in the King's Town (Kingston) on September 6 1920. He was one of the foundation members of the Kingston Rastafari encampment on the "Dungle".
His devoted studies on all matters relating to the faith in combination with his intellectual brilliance established Ras Morti or Bro.Kummie as he is affectionately known as one of the most distinguished elders of the movement.
After the construction of Government housing he became a tenant on fifth Street in Trench Town. He was consulted on all matters of extreme importance to the community in which he lived and this situation remains the same until this day.
Ras Mortimer Planno is the type of person anyone will listen to, he is a community elder who anyone would respect for what he stood for in the Rastafari faith. He is an excellent communicator and is able to tell what's going on in Africa and the rest of the world.
He is a Psychologist, great reader, author of many texts, journals, songs and poetry, he is also a playwright and a brilliant actor himself, an artist or thoughtist as he would put it. He writes a lot as he daily receives correspondence from all over the world.
Ras Kummie grew up in the Ghetto as what the system would describe as a "bad boy", not in the sense of doing wrong, but in such communities one had to be tough to survive.
He was an executive member of The Ethiopian World Federation Inc. Local 37 at Salt lane on the "Dungle". The Rastafari Movement experienced harsh persecution from the system in the early days, and because of this, Mortimo along with other bretheren from other "Houses" approached the University College of West Indies (as it was then known) with the intention of getting them to carry out a survey of the Rastafari Movement in order to establish a better relationship with the Government of Jamaica and also understand "The Repatriation process".
The report was done in 1959 after Professor Arthur Lewis the then chancellor of the University sent a delegation amongst the bretheren to find out what the Rastafari bretheren really needed. The report was a success and gave birth to the 1961 Fact Finding Mission of which a ten man delegation was sent to Africa.
Ras Mortimo "Kummie" Planno and the rest of the delegation visited Ghana, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Liberia, Ethiopia and other African countries. He returned to Africa in 1972 and 1979. He went to Canada in 1973, 1975 and early 1980.
He went twice to London.
In 1966 when His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie 1st visited Jamaica Ras Mortimo Planno was honored to be paged by H.I.M. at the airport on the plane steps to ask the large crowd surrounding the steps to give way so that H.I.M. can disembark, which of course was a difficult task. Planno however did it with ease after shaking hands with H.I.M.
When Mortimo visited Ethiopia he was told by the Emperor Haile Selassie 1st that the Rastafari bretheren need to Organize and Centralize the Movement.
Ras Planno shook hands with H.I.M. on April 21st 1961 and again on April 21st, 1966 five years to the date, this shows some significance.
Mortimo was instrumental along with Danny Simms and Skill Cole in the early rise and success of Bob Marley and the Wailers. He also wrote quite a few songs for them such as "This Train", "Payaaka", "Chances Are", "Haile Selassie is the Chapel", others including "Sattamassagana".
These top two videos, possibly the first ever videotaping of the Rastafari, were filmed August 5th, 1969 in the shanty that housed the Ethiopian World Federation Local 37 in Salt Lane, Kingston, Jamaica. Lambros Comitas, an anthropology professor at Teachers College, Columbia University, taped these events at the request and invitation of Mortimo Planno, a powerful and striking figure. Kumi, as known by his friends, played a pivotal role in the public unfolding of the Rastafarian movement in Jamaica. He also played a critically important part in initiating the politically potent study of that movement. As part of his lifelong dedication to the movement, he participated as a Rastafarian member in the historic Government Mission to Africa, a mission sent to explore the possibilities of repatriation. These films contain Rastafarian rites and an Amharic lesson.

Diversification Vital for Firms' Survival
While the construction industry is buoyed by lockdown restrictions easing, and 56% of projects that were previously suspended are now back on-site, there is a deep concern about what happens next, and where future opportunities will come from.
As the UK faces the possibility of another recession, leading business analysts are encouraging diversification strategies to spread risk and maintain businesses throughout the crisis.
The commercial property sector is possibly most likely to be hit first, with office in a state of flux regarding whether employees will return and continue to work at pre-Coronavirus volumes.
The development pipeline appears firm right now, with 1,080 projects being approved throughout the UK in the last three months, a six per cent increase than this time last year. It remains to be seen in investors will progress these to site, caution and preparing to spread risk now would be prudent.
A recent report entitled 'COVID-19: UK industry focus. Where next for real estate?' from Strategy& – part of the PwC network – states that "42% of workers can work from home", and "In the worst-case scenario, real estate companies would be left with expensive, significantly devalued assets on their balance sheets for which there is no demand."
So it stands to reason that, should firms be solely focused on office construction, they should be looking elsewhere as well, in order to spread their risk and avoid the worst-case scenario if it were to arise.
Some manufacturing business are also at risk should they decide to remain focused on their 'old-normal' way of doing business. Strategy& states in their report "COVID-19: UK industry focus. Where next for industrial manufacturing?" that: "Our figures suggest the industrial manufacturing sector will be hit harder than the economy as a whole, with a possible productivity fall of more than 30%", and "Whether making parts or assembling products, manufacturers with a broader, more diverse set of customers will fare better than those who specialise in serving specific industries."
If history has taught us anything, it is that short-term measures taken in response to a global crisis lead to changes which can last for decades. And, manufacturers that can identify new opportunities to meet newly created needs will have ample opportunity for growth.
For example, Tharsus, an advance robotics company, has developed 'Bump', a new cutting-edge technology system that is designed to help keep people safe in the workplace during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Alloy Wire International has also been commissioned to produce more than 5km of material that will be used to produce crucial parts to use in life-saving equipment destined for the Nightingale Hospital in London.
Another example is Coventry-based flooring manufacturer, Amtico, which has modified its manufacturing facilities in order to produce up to 20,000 parts for protective face shields per day.
But, how can business that are entrenched in one single way of working and supplying one sector quickly turn around and be involved in other areas in which they may not have first-hand experienc? PwC's Strategy& again has some useful advice to "use demand signals such as customer leads and market insight to inform recovery, preparing for different scenarios depending on the length and nature of lockdown."
The more businesses can diversify the types of projects they work on, or supply, the better position they'll be in to spread risk, and weather the storm.

Canvas is the LMS (Learning Management System) used by the Diocese of Fort Wayne South Bend. This LMS allows teachers to create digital curriculum for students to access while at school or off-site. Your student will use Canvas for e-Learning days, to download files, take quizzes, access vital links, view videos, and more!
Canvas is being used in districts in and around Fort Wayne as well as across the country. This tool does not replace the teacher, but helps to connect students and teachers in a new way, and supplement and enhance traditional classroom learning and activities. This technology gives students practical life skills that they will use for college and careers--all while enhancing the curriculum. By using Canvas, students will make an easier transition to college.
In the event that we close school due to weather, we will implement an elearning day.
Student assignments will be posted by 10:00 a.m. on the actual Snow Day. The assignments will be listed within a labeled module. Students will have 2 days to complete the assignments. Student Assignments given on a Monday must be submitted Wednesday of that same week at 7:45 a.m.
If a student does not complete the assignment, they are considered absent for that period. The absence is recorded in their PowerSchool attendance. It is considered unexcused and treated as such.
In compliance with the Diocesan Internet Usage Policy, the Diocese requires our staff to copy parents on all emails sent directly to their children. A very important step in the e-learning program is setting up the parent's account in the Canvas program. Once your child has set-up his/her account, the parent will receive an email invitation to create an account with Canvas. Parents must respond to this email. Upon acceptance, you will need to create an account. You will need your child's username and password to complete this step. Please get this information from your child. This acceptance will allow the instructor to contact your child via email and will provide the parent/guardian with a copy of all communications. Detailed and step-by-step instructions to complete registration are below.
What can observers (parents) do in a Canvas course?
In Canvas, the observer (parent) role can be used to enroll parents who would like to monitor their child in a Canvas course. Observers have limited permissions that allow them to see what is going on in a course without interrupting the flow of daily course communication. Like students, observers cannot view a course until it is published and the course has started.
Observers are bound to the same prerequisites, requirements, lock dates, etc. as the student they are observing.

When tensions among nations are at their height, connections among scientists can be a powerful avenue for maintaining ties and backdoor diplomacy. It worked during the Cold War, when scientists in Washington and Moscow joined together to advocate for a nuclear arms control agreement. The Obama administration is renewing the emphasis on "science diplomacy," in the hopes of building bridges in unfriendly territory and as a way to strengthen ties with allies.
Norman Neureiter Senior Adviser to the AAAS Center for Science Diplomacy; Chair of the Senior Advisory Board to the AAAS publication "Science & Diplomacy"
MR. KOJO NNAMDIFrom WAMU 88.5 at American University in Washington welcome to "The Kojo Nnamdi Show," connecting your neighborhood with the world. Political leaders and diplomats may be the public face of international relations, but when tensions between nations are at their highest, connections between scientists can be an avenue for unofficial diplomacy.
MR. KOJO NNAMDIThe first Nuclear Arms Control Agreement during the Cold War was initiated by scientists joining forces across the Iron Curtain. In the decades since, science diplomacy has become a powerful tool for collaboration with both allies and enemies. That collaboration might be officially sanctioned and government-funded or it might be the work of universities, non-profits or private companies.
MR. KOJO NNAMDIJoining us to discuss science diplomacy is Norman Neureiter. He is the senior advisor to the Center for Science Diplomacy at the American Association for the Advancement of Science AAAS. He's also chair of the senior advisory board at the new AAAS publication Science and Diplomacy. Norm Neureiter, thank you for joining us.
MR. NORMAN NEUREITERWhat a pleasure it is to be here. I've listened to your program for so long and it's just wonderful to be here.
NNAMDIThe pleasure is mutual. Dr. Neureiter is a veteran in the field of science and diplomacy going back to the Kennedy administration. He served as science advisor to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright in the Clinton administration.
NNAMDIAlso in studio with us is Alice Gast, president of Lehigh University and U.S. Science Envoy to Central Asia and the Caucuses. Prior to that, Alice Gast taught chemical engineering at MIT and at Stanford. Alice Gast, thank you for joining us.
MS. ALICE GASTThank you for having me. It's wonderful to be here.
NNAMDIAlex Dehgan also joins us. He is the science and technology advisor to the administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development. USAID is the agency responsible for administering civilian foreign aid. By training, he is an evolutionary biologist. Alex Dehgan, thank you for joining us.
MR. ALEX DEHGANIt's an honor to be here. Thank you so much.
NNAMDIThank you also for being in studio. 800-433-8850 is the number to call if you would like to join this conversation. What role do you think scientific cooperation plays in bridging divisions between countries? 800-433-8850. You can send us a tweet @kojoshow or simply go to our website, kojoshow.org, and join the conversation there. Email is kojo@wamu.org. Norm, for those who are not familiar with the concept, how would you define science diplomacy?
NEUREITERIt's a strategy of engagement. It's a way of trying to find a group of people to whom you can talk in other countries and you use science as an instrument of that constructive engagement. And some people say, well, why do you work with people that we don't like and so on? Well, the fascinating thing about science is you quickly find a common language because you're not there to discuss diplomatic issues. You are there to find common issues in science that you can work together on.
NEUREITERAnd it's amazing, you very quickly find people who understand what you've been doing, very often they've been doing the same kind of thing separately and so you're coming together and beginning to do something. And then you hope as you do this that you build sort of an atmosphere of trust between you and trust is the beginning of better relationships.
NNAMDIBut this has always gone on between nations. You say, however, the Kennedy administration may have been the first to deliberately engage using science as one of our diplomatic tools.
NEUREITERWell, there's always been international scientific cooperation. Ever since there were scientists, they began cooperating with people who were working on the same issue. But for a politician, for a government official to say, I'm going to try to engage with the other country through science, that was new. And it was Ambassador Reischauer who had been a professor at Harvard that President Kennedy appointed as his ambassador to Japan.
NEUREITERAnd when he was there, he did an article for Foreign Affairs called "The Broken Dialogue" and what he saw was the relationship between the intellectual communities of the two countries falling apart. And so at a dinner at the White House, when Prime Minister Ikeda came from Japan, he raised his glass in a toast and created three committees.
NEUREITEROne was a cabinet committee on economics, one was a cultural committee with universities and for the first time in American history, he created a joint committee on scientific cooperation between the U.S. and Japan. The thrill for me was that I just had joined the National Science Foundation and I ended up chairing that program for two years and it was a thrill.
NEUREITERAnd in fact, that program in a way still goes on today, that relationship with Japan. And look how relations with Japan have changed in 50 years.
NNAMDISince that time, Alice Gast, one of the premises of science diplomacy is that no matter how strained relations are between two countries, there's the possibility, some would say, maybe even the likelihood that scientists can still work together. Can you talk about that?
GASTI think it's very true. Scientists are driven by curiosity, by understanding the world around them. And they also shape their ideas and their opinions based on facts and based on information. And so as soon as you meet another scientist, you have a common bond. As Norm says, we speak a common language and you're welcomed with open arms when you travel and meet fellow scientists in all parts of the world.
NNAMDIAlex, you see collaboration in science as something Americans are particularly well equipped to do. Why is that?
DEHGANI think that there are values inherent in science and technology that are American values. They are values of honesty, doubt, respect for evidence, transparency, openness, meritocracy, tolerance, even a hunger for an opposing point of view. These are really important values for us to be able to engage in.
DEHGANSecondly, I think that the world really respects American science even when their opinion of U.S. politics are at resounding lows, their views of U.S. science and technology is sometimes 80-90 percent positive.
NNAMDI800-433-8850 is our number. How do you think U.S. scientists can level the playing field with counterparts in the developing world? 800-433-8850. Alice Gast, the Obama administration is putting a particular focus on science and technology in diplomacy. You have been appointed Science Envoy to Central Asia and the Caucuses. What exactly is your role?
GASTThe role really is to travel as a private citizen, not as a member of the U.S. government and to gather information and to look for the opportunities for sustainable partnerships. And so in that role, I had the opportunity to meet with government officials and scientific institute directors, university leaders.
GASTAnd again, I was welcomed with opened arms by fellow scientists, but the opportunity there is that a science envoy can try to look for partnerships that will occur between our own laboratories, our universities and universities in these countries. We think of the common strengths, the places where we will find common ground and our scientists would be particularly interested in collaborating or travelling to these other countries.
NNAMDIAs a science envoy, you are appointed by the U.S. government, but you are, in fact, a citizen diplomat, something you have to clarify at times when you meet with foreign officials and foreign scientists. Can you explain?
GASTI do find that when you meet with government officials and the countries -- I visited were former Soviet nations and the government officials tend to speak in longer paragraphs full of talking points and I think that those discussions are beneficial as I can carry messages and build goodwill.
GASTBut the less formal meetings occurred when I got to meet with university leaders, people who are colleagues and peers of my own and lab directors where we're really speaking more scientist to scientist and in much more candid ways. So I had to remind them from time to time that I was not speaking for the government, I was just a private citizen.
NNAMDIWell this is not a new tradition. As you pointed out, Norm Neureiter, it goes way back during wars. Scientists still often had connections?
NEUREITERWell, certainly during the Cold War, there were a lot of them. When there's a hot war, well, that interferes with a lot of communication and so on. But what you hope is that when war may threaten that, somehow the relationships, that thin strand which science cooperation represents, that that somehow keeps things on a stable plane and makes it possible actually to solve problems and not increase them.
NEUREITERAnyway, I think the history of engagement has been very good. It was fascinating that as part of his breakthrough with China, I still remember I was on the White House staff then, and I remember when Dr. Kissinger came to my boss, who was the president's science advisor, and he said to him, I want to offer the Chinese something a little more than a global political repositioning.
NEUREITERI want to -- so work up some science initiatives, work up something concrete and we did in complete secrecy. We worked up 40 initiatives. They went to China and when you read the Shanghai Communique, the result of that visit, which was an absolute breakthrough in political relationships, one of the areas suggested for future cooperation was science.
NNAMDINorm Neureiter is the senior advisor to the Center for Science Diplomacy at AAAS, the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He's also chair of the senior advisory board at the new AAAS publication Science and Diplomacy. He joins us in studio along with the President of Lehigh University, Alice Gast. She is also U.S. Special Envoy to Central Asia and the Caucuses. And Alex Dehgan is the science and technology advisor to the administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, the agency responsible for administering civilian foreign aid.
NNAMDIHere now is Huff in Washington, D.C. Huff, you're on the air. Please don all your headphones, please, so you can all hear Huff. Huff, you are now on the air. Go ahead, please.
HUFFThank you, thank you, Kojo. This is Huff, the music man and I'm just wondering, I've gone to many countries, including China, and not knowing the language, I would say through the science of music, I was able to communicate and actually make quite a few friends with the Chinese. And I'm just wondering, why can't we just use human nature just to start learning how to be nice and understand each other and I believe communication is the key.
HUFFIf we learn how to speak to each other and understand each other better, as opposed to just understanding each other through what the media wants us to think about each other, we can all get along just a little better.
NNAMDIThat's funny that you should mention that, Huff, because just a couple of weeks ago on this broadcast, we discussed using the arts as another form of diplomacy. You all know about the role that jazz music, for instance, has played in American diplomacy throughout the decades. Well, we talked about broadening that in the arts and today we're just discussing science diplomacy. 800-433-8850 is the number to call. Alex, you were with the USAID and you see the field of development as, in a way, the purest form of science diplomacy. Why?
DEHGANIf you look at the roles of science diplomacy, it's got to be more than just public diplomacy, but actually has to be based on real science. And it occurs best when it's least politicized, when the benefits go both ways, when it meets real needs and challenges within countries. And what we do in development is provide that technical expertise and now even more so as we take on some of the grand challenges of our day.
DEHGANThose challenges are not just ones that affect developing countries, they're ones that can affect us at home. And by working together, we can actually address some of these problems and through science create a framework on which a scaffolding, on which we can have our official relationships as well.
NNAMDISome say that the roles of scientists and diplomats are fundamentally at odds. Scientific collaboration thrives on transparency without politics while diplomacy has to advance the interests of the country. Do you see those things necessarily as being at odds, Alice Gast?
GASTNo, I don't at all. I think that, as our caller said, whenever you get people who are passionate about something and they find people who are equally passionate about that field on the other side you can be absolutely open and transparent. And the world of science is so based on communication and now we have the ability to communicate across the world very easily. So collaborations can be built with single encounters and then kept alive through communication and sending information back and forth. So it's very easy to collaborate across boundaries and I think that it's a good way to promote openness and transparency.
NNAMDIBut politics always make the waters just a little bit muddier. Here's an email we got from Tonya in D.C. "All this science diplomacy sounds nice," writes Tonya, "but let's talk about what these folks really get to do and what they get to know. For instance, how much are American scientists working with the Iranian nuclear scientists? And is it informing our foreign policy or not?" Certain areas, Norm Neureiter, are really delicate and this is one.
NEUREITERThis is a very appropriate question. I've just come back from Iran just a week ago and I was there along with Peter Agre, a professor at Johns Hopkins University. He runs the Malaria Institute there. We were invited by the vice president -- they have six vice presidents in Iran -- by the vice-president for science and technology. And we went there, not to solve the nuclear issue, right, not to discuss political things, but to continue the relationship which exists between American and Iranian scientists, which over the last ten years, initially started by our National Academy of Sciences and the Iranian Academy of Sciences, has developed quite a remarkable level.
NEUREITERWe can talk with those people. We don't go there to negotiate the nuclear thing. And, by the way, we don't cooperate with them in nuclear science. But there are things in the environment, there are things in earthquakes, there are things in food borne disease, there are all kinds of issues where you in fact can work together. Now working's not so simple. There are visa problems and there are export control problems and there are sanction problems, but you can communicate. You can have seminars, you can have joint workshops.
NEUREITERSometimes they're in the U.S., sometimes they're in Iran and sometimes they're in third countries. But those are possible and they've been remarkably good. And, in fact, there are Iranian students who still come to the U.S. and they would like to have more American students coming to Iran but that's also not so simple.
NNAMDIGot to take a short break. When we come back, if you have called, stay on the line. We will get to your call. If you have not, the number's 800-433-8850. Are you a scientist who has worked with counterparts abroad? What was your experience? You can also send us a Tweet at kojoshow or simply go to our website, kojoshow.org, ask a question or make a comment there. I'm Kojo Nnamdi.
NNAMDIWelcome back. We're talking science diplomacy with Alice Gast, president of Lehigh University and U.S. Science Envoy to Central Asia and the Caucuses. Alex Dehgan is the science and technology advisor to the Administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, which is responsible for administering civilian foreign aid. And Norm Neureiter is the senior advisor to the Center for Science Diplomacy at the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He's also chair of the Senior Advisory Board at the new AAAS publication science and diplomacy.
NNAMDIIf you'd like to join the conversation, call us at 800-433-8850. Here is Ken in Gaithersburg, Md. Ken, you're on the air. Go ahead, please.
KENThank you for taking my call, Kojo.
KENFirst, a little about me. I grew up in Taiwan. I speak two dialects of Chinese quite fluently. I'm a physician. I was also formerly in intelligence and is also a member of the Committee for Medical Advancement in China.
KENAnd my viewpoint is actually diametrically opposed to your panelists'.
KENIt's my experience -- well, it's my experience having been in China and also having been on the intelligence side, that a great deal of what we think of as innocuous intelligence -- innocuous technology and science transfer is sought after for less than friendly purposes by the Chinese. The Chinese do not consider us a friendly power. And I'm in some ways reminded of the selling of the scrap of the Third Avenue El to the Japanese which came back to us as bullets.
KENThe Chinese are very much involved in using electronic and computer-based technologies against us, many of which were transferred innocuously. They constantly are seeking military applications technology. And as far as medical technologies are concerned they are actively looking for technologies which can be used in the marketplace to compete with us.
NNAMDIAs a science envoy, Alice Gast, do you have to take into consideration the possible uses of science and technology when you're talking about scientific exchanges and scientific collaborations?
GASTYou know, I think we benefit so much from the relationships that are developed between scientists that it actually can outweigh these issues that the caller raises. Certainly we have export control regulations and approaches to making sure that areas of national security interests are protected. But by and large, I believe the technology development and the scientific developments are certainly not unique to the United State. We don't have an absolutely market share on it and we're better off, I believe, collaborating to promote the advancement of science rather than trying to sequester ourselves and be in isolation.
NNAMDIWell, Norm Neureiter, you recently visited North Korea, an interesting case of completely closed country with almost no lines of communications. And it is my understanding, Ken you should know, that that visit was organized jointly with a Beijing-based organization. Tell us about what you were trying to accomplish there.
NEUREITERWell, we were looking for a way to engage with these people in something constructive. And with response to the last question, you don't work in highly sensitive areas with people. There are issues with China, but you have to make the choice, do you engage with people or do you try to isolate them? And isolation, in fact, has not been a very successful strategy in the history. Some kind of engagement is desirable and we try to do peaceful engagement, which does not endanger U.S. security.
NEUREITERNow with North Korea, it was on -- through this Chinese organization which focuses on environment and has an ability to communicate with North Korean institutions. We don't directly. It's very difficult. And so we were offered the opportunity to do a workshop with them on the subject of reforestation, restoration ecology. Their forests have been destroyed. People -- and they told us all this. Anyway, we had a big workshop. Eighty-five of their scientists came. We only had 14 people on our side, only five Americans total.
NEUREITERBut for three days ,we exchanged presentations. And it's amazing, after a day-and-a-half, they began telling us openly their problems. We began -- we had five Americans and then the rest were Europeans, people experienced in forestry and restoration ecology and so on. It was an amazing exchange. Now we didn't have a lot of one-on-one sessions with individuals. There was always a minder there with you. But -- and I once complained about that. They said, ah Norman, step by step. In other words, this organization in China, which is actually run by a German one, she has a relationship of trust built up with these people. And it was a pretty amazing seminar.
NEUREITERAnd in the end, we went to a park, a beautiful park up in the mountains. I'm describing North Korea. This is really surprising stuff, but it was quite amazing and it would be nice to continue this. We're now working on some seismic projects there if it can ever be arranged, but it's very complicated.
NNAMDIKen, thank you very much for your call. You, too, can call us. Are you a student or professor in the sciences who has been part of an exchange in another country? You might want to share your experience with us at 800-433-8850. Or if you'd like to comment on what role do you think scientific cooperation plays in bridging divisions between countries? 800-433-8850 or you can go to our website kojoshow.org and join the conversation there.
NNAMDIAlex Dehgan, how important is trust when you implement programs? Last week, a local commander blocked the vaccination program in the Pakistan Tribal Belt because of fears of espionage by the CIA. They cite the covert operation that used a vaccination campaign to covertly determine if Osama bin Laden lived in the compound in Abbottabad. So how important is trust?
DEHGANTrust is actually really important and, in fact, science diplomacy works best when it's least politicized and it's actually clear and transparent in terms of what we're trying to do. And that is, you know, one of the important goals of development is to understand that we're working together. We're really trying to leverage skills and ideas in different countries to be able to cooperate to solve some of these global challenges. I think that there's -- we have recognized, A, that there is great intelligence and great ideas all over the world but opportunity is not everywhere. And a lot of what we want to do is try to provide that opportunity. You can't provide that opportunity without trust.
NNAMDIWe talked about North Korea, we talked about Iran. But coming -- prior to coming to USAID, you worked with the Department of State in Iraq. What were you doing there?
DEHGANMy role in Iraq was to try to redirect former weapon scientists back into civilian science. And that was based actually, responding to the former caller, I think on this idea that you actually can miss -- avoid the misuse of science through engagement rather than isolation. I think, you know, in development we see this in terms of we want to provide through our foreign assistance the opportunities to allow other countries to have the ability to address their own problems. We want to actually connect with governments and their people. And the people is an important part of what we do. We want to allow the door to be opened for further engagement.
DEHGANAnd we -- you know, quite frankly, we have to take into account that, you know, the Chinese are training thousands of scientists in Africa and other places in the world, things that USAID used to do. And that provides a connection that lasts well beyond those programs. Where -- you know, for us to train people we're providing them opportunities to learn about America, to learn about our values and to build those bridges that science provides through common language, common communication. And this is more important now than I think than ever.
DEHGANThe new president of Egypt is a PhD chemical engineer that was trained at USC. We have a bond. He was at Cal State actually as a professor for many years. This is -- we are very worried about what's going to happen in Egypt and this is an opportunity that we have.
NNAMDII'm glad you mentioned that because you are sitting here in the capitol of our own country which is generally known as a town of lawyer leaders. But you notice that one reason the ties between the U.S. and scientists in the developing world are so important is the point you were just making, is because scientists in those countries often assume significant leadership positions. As opposed to here, where it seems like lawyers tend more leadership positions. 800-433-8850 is the number to call if you'd like to join the conversation.
NNAMDIWhat role do you think scientific cooperation plays in bridging divisions between countries? Are you a scientist who has worked with counterparts abroad? You may want to call us to share your experience. Norm, connecting through science and research is also important because countries that have good relations need to do that, too. Can you talk a little bit about what science and diplomacy means for the relationship between allies?
NEUREITERThere are many examples of science cooperation and it's easy between allies because you don't have this political problem. So in our center at AAAS, we have concentrated on working with those really hard countries because I think we bring a certain amount of experience to it. And I also believe looking down into the future -- or up into the future, it's a very useful and important thing to do.
NEUREITERBut among allies, it's essential that on these big millennial problems, these big issues of global health and food and land use and resources and energy and all of these big things, it is essential that among the allied countries, among our friends that we do coordinate our efforts. It takes a lot of money to solve these problems and we have to work together. It is a global world no matter what we think. No country, not the U.S., not China, nobody lives in isolation. The seas are being polluted and the seas are in common. The water goes everywhere.
NEUREITERAnd so you have to work together and there are various mechanisms. Some of it is through the UN, some of it is done country to country. There have been consortia created with a number of members for different purposes. It's a very important dimension but we call that more international cooperation than we do international science, however -- or than we do science diplomacy, however there is a lot of science involved in diplomacy. For instance, suppose you have the issue of global warming. That is a diplomatic issue because it's a global issue. And you need good science to back up your conclusions about it.
NEUREITERSo that's what we really call science in diplomacy, science supporting diplomacy but it's not science for diplomacy.
NNAMDIWell, speaking of our allies and science diplomacy, Alice Gast, you were in Kazakhstan last summer. And why is Kazakhstan an important strategic ally for the U.S.?
GASTKazakhstan is extremely important. It's the ninth largest land mass in the world. It's got huge resources and oil, gas and minerals. It has the largest border with Russia and it has a large border with China. So it's strategically located. Due to their heritage under the Soviet Union they have tremendous infrastructure of science institutes, universities and hospitals and quite a very highly educated population and very eager to collaborate with the West.
GASTOne of the great things about Kazakhstan is they very quickly embraced sending students abroad. They have the Bolashak scholars who've studied in Europe and the U.S. over the past 15 years or so. And they're obliged to come back and spend five years in their country. And you find them really world savvy and eager to collaborate around the world. And they're working in embassies and corporations and in these laboratories.
NNAMDIKazakhstan is looking to develop its economy beyond oil and mineral wealth, it's my understanding. And that's an area where apparently collaboration can help. Can you talk about that?
GASTVery much so. You know, every country would like to improve their situation and Kazakhstan would like to become an innovation economy with higher value added goods and services. And so they're building upon their natural resources but also their education base to develop programs that will put them further ahead than a commodity-based economy will. And I think there's some really interesting opportunities for collaboration. They have unique long term strengths and their ability to mine poor -- ores for minerals. And they have interesting rare earth minerals. They're on a bird migratory path and so it's a very interesting place to study avian influenza.
GASTThey have very unique environmental challenges because of the decades of Soviet nuclear testing and the nuclear storage facilities that were in the region. And so there are many topics where they can help the rest of the world. As Norm said, these problems don't know boundaries. And we need to recognize that collaborating on these grand challenges is extremely important.
NNAMDIAnd speaking of boundaries, you mentioned earlier Kazakhstan has boundaries with both Russia and China. For you Kazakhstan represents both the potential and the limitations of science as a central part of diplomacy. How so?
GASTI think that science is critically important, science and technology and education. And as an education leader I saw one of my roles is to help them think about how to promote international educational exchanges and to attract people into their country. I think that they can build that strength by inviting people in. I think of the Von Hombalt Program that Germany has which has for decades built very strong relationships where a scientist has an opportunity to spend a year of time over a five-year-period and develop really lasting relationships.
GASTI think one can benefit also from bringing in industry. These corporations working in these countries are required to have a certain fraction of their work force be from that country, and more and more a certain fraction of their management team. So it's in the corporation's interest to have a highly educated workforce, and I think that spans beyond just the scientific research, and really speaks to how to help them with their education systems.
NNAMDIOnto Tom in Arlington, Va. Tom, your turn.
TOMThank you. My question is for Alex I think probably more than anybody, but also for Norman. Where are you going to get the money to collaborate with the scientists, especially in the developing countries, in this tough budget environment that the federal agencies face now? Federal agencies typically can only devote their money to the U.S. side of collaboration, and it's very rare that they can get money to pay for anybody on the other side, and the developing world doesn't have a lot of money to put into science at all, let alone into science collaboration. So how are you going to work that?
DEHGANThat is a great, great question, and essentially the answer is how we leverage federal agencies. In particular, we've set up a partnership called PEER, Partners for Enhanced Engagement and Research NSF is funding American scientists and we are funding the developing country counterparts that actually work together on global challenges, and we review those proposals for both development impact, as well as scientific merit. And one of the great things was we had just an outstanding sort of reply to that program with almost 500 applications from 63 countries out of the 79 countries where USAID works around the world.
DEHGANAnd so it is leveraging those resources at NASA, NSF, NIH, which taxpayers have already invested in that we can do this. The second way has been through our grand challenges for development. We have partnered with the rest of the world to really take on these big problems, because as Norm says, these problems are bigger than any single county, and so we have partnered with DFID and the World Bank and Grand Challenges Canada, Norway, among other countries to really be able to take a single approach to addressing these problems.
DEHGANAnd one of the great things about the grand challenge is 50 percent of the applications have come from the developing world.
NNAMDIGot to take a short break. Tom, I hope that answered your question.
TOMAbsolutely. Thanks very much guys. Take care.
NNAMDIWe'll continue our conversation on science diplomacy when we return. If you've already called, stay on the line. We'll try to get to your calls. If not, you can go to our website, kojoshow.org and join the conversation there. I'm Kojo Nnamdi.
NNAMDIWelcome back. It's a conversation on science diplomacy with Alex Dehgan, science and technology advisor to the administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, the agency responsible for administering civilian foreign aid. He's an evolutionary biologist by training. Alice Gast is the president of Lehigh University and U.S. Science Envoy to Central Asia and the caucuses. Prior to that she taught chemical engineering at MIT and at Standard, and Norm Neureiter is the senior advisor to the Center for Science Diplomacy at the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
NNAMDIHe's also chair of the senior advisory board at the new AAAS publication, science and diplomacy. I'd like to go directly back to the phones and Carey in Annapolis, Md. Carey, you're on the air. Go ahead, please.
CAREYHi Kojo. Thanks for having me on.
CAREYI am a second-year physics student at George Mason University, and I'd often thought around my studies that maybe if I could tackle -- I'm also very involved in politics -- that maybe if I could tackle some of these extremely difficult concepts in physics, that, you know, maybe I could make a difference in politics. And the thought often occurred to me that it would be that from a scientific standpoint you have to use understanding and logic a lot more often than from a lawyer's job where you have to persuade and, you know, try to get them to your point.
CAREYI feel like it's a much more constructive idea from a scientific standpoint to use the understanding, and I just never knew that something like this organization existed, and I think it's absolutely great.
NEUREITERListen, you might be interested in this online publication which we just created at AAAS. You can get it at www.sciencediplomacy.org, and we are accepting manuscripts from any people who would like to write on this subject. The whole broad issue of the relationship of science to international affairs and diplomacy, and you'll find different views in that, you'll find different people writing from senators down to working scientists and so on. So it's a very interesting journal, and we'll give you -- I think taken your position, a physicist thinking he can also have an impact on politics, I think it's the perfect document for you to look at every month, and you'll always find something on that website, sciencediplomacy.org.
NNAMDICarey, thank you very much for your call.
CAREYAbsolutely. Thank you for answering my call.
NNAMDIHere is Josh in Washington D.C. Josh, your turn.
JOSHThank you, Kojo. I just -- I wanted to pick up on what the previous caller from Virginia was speaking about in terms of declining U.S. foreign assistance levels, and just really I guess underscore some of the work that Dr. Dehgan has done in the past, and what a great value add that has been for a relatively small sum of money, especially his work in Iraq.
JOSHAnd so I think Dr. Dehgan knows where we're coming from on this and can speak a little bit more about the value add of funding science diplomacy and the impact that it can have for a relatively small amount of money, especially in comparison to what we spend on other defense-related items.
DEHGANWe spend less than one percent of our federal budget on foreign assistance. People think it's much, much greater than that when it actually isn't. And if you look at some of the challenges we're taking on, whether it is agricultural disease or pandemic diseases, energy problems, I mean, think about the impact of 700 million people who make under two dollars a day when they all get air conditioning in India. Thinking about the water changes that we're seeing, the climatic changes and the environmental changes.
DEHGANYou know, our need to address global health, to address these is fundamental to our own security at the end of the day, and it is one that builds relationships that endure well beyond the length of these programs. We have an opportunity because of the democratization of science, the democratization of communications, cell phones, the computing power that is exponentially decreasing in cost and increasing in power, the amount of data available in the world that doubles every two years, and even things like genetics where 13, you know, the human genome took 13 years and $2.7 billion to sequence one genome, and there are companies now in California that can do it under a thousand dollars.
DEHGANHow do we harness these tools to be able to address these problems, and using science and diplomacy to achieve our development goals, and to achieve our diplomatic goals, and then, you know, what is the risk if we don't use these things? What if we don't use science? What does this mean in terms of our ability to address development problems, and then what happens to those people who are disconnected.
DEHGANYou know, that chasm that's there between those people who have access to the greatest amount of knowledge we've ever had in humankind, and those who are disconnected, those are places of despondency that cause -- that breed terrorism, that cause problems against our national security, and this is why an investment in development is an investment in growth, it's an investment in our economy. It is a way to create future economies for the U.S.
NNAMDIJosh, thank you very much for your call. Alice Gast, it would seem to many people that the expertise in these collaborations and exchanges goes only one way. For instance, here is Jay in Potomac, Md. Jay, you're on the air. Go ahead, please.
JAYYeah. Thank you, Kojo. I would like to present that this program is misguided, naïve and very counterproductive. You have to see what's happening, the results are that we are several trillions of dollars in debt and indebted to countries where we have turned over our technology through idealistic collaborations, or they've just stole it from us, and if we wanted to stay on their market, it's too bad. They've then used that money to purchase the most key resources.
NNAMDINo. You've made -- you've mentioned several, and we don't have that much time. Alice Gast, as I said, people feel these expertise and these collaborations and exchanges goes only one way, that these countries benefit from us and end up costing us more money than for things -- well, whatever. But that's not necessarily the case, is it?
NNAMDIThough not the president of Egypt (unintelligible) .
GASTNo. I'm all -- I'm the president of Lehigh University. There's something tremendous to be said about alma mater, a sense of the ability to work together and solve problems together and develop programs that send benefits our way, as well as our sending benefits abroad is tremendous, and as soon as you meet someone who came from your alma mater, no matter what decade they came from, there's a lot to be said for that camaraderie and that exchange that has occurred.
GASTI think that we also are benefitting tremendously from working with scientists from different cultural backgrounds. You get a group of physicists together from different countries, and we look at a problem differently. We take it apart differently, we solve it differently, and we learn as we work interculturally if you will, we solve problems that we couldn't have solved by ourselves.
NNAMDIIndeed, you I think mentioned that in Kazakhstan there are things to be studied there that we couldn't possibly study here.
GASTThat's right. And that's where I think that we can -- we benefit from their expertise, and from going and working and working on these problems. Avian influenza certainly spreads around the world. Any disease, ecological problems, and resource issues of water and forests and climate really don't follow boundaries, and when people in some of these more challenged places are working hard to solve these really hard problems, we can learn a lot. We learn about how to bring medical technologies to fruition for lower cost because we do that for developing nations. If we can do it there, we can bring that back here.
NNAMDINorm Neureiter, do you address -- or how do you address the imbalance in terms of the resources that the American scientist often brings to the table in places like, oh, Kazakhstan, North Korea, or Afghanistan?
NEUREITERI'm sorry. I do not agree that this is a completely unbalanced relationship, but you do want to do things which make sense for both sides. If there's a severe imbalance in the relationship, then in the end it falls apart because one side feels cheat or something. So anyway, you have to use some sense when you go into these relationships, and I think these broad generalizations that everybody steals from us, that everybody just takes, and they don't give anything is completely wrong.
NEUREITERIn fact, in many cases, you will find that they are contributing far more to the program than we are. We may have more money, but they're contributing people, they're contributing places to work, they're contributing facilities, they're contributing unique environments which we can't get anywhere else. No. No. These things are extremely valuable. Now, in a broadly political sense, and I said this earlier, you can choose between isolation and cutting everyone off, or you can find ways of trying to work with them, and my experience, and I've been doing this for 50 years, my experience says that you are better off trying to interact with people, finding ways where you do have some agreement that builds a bit of trust, and that has a chance for a longer term future for the world than if you try to isolate, because eventually with isolation there will be conflict.
NNAMDIAnd indeed, Alex Dehgan, you agree that it's a mistake to assume that the exchange goes one way when American scientists work in developing countries.
DEHGANI think it works best when we actually have a mutual exchange, and a mutual benefit, and in fact, the world is increasingly networked and connected, and we cannot actually isolate ourselves anymore, and in fact, we can frequently only hurt ourselves in the long run. If we're looking at, you know, future markets, future opportunities for Americans, they're gonna be in places like the developed world, and they're gonna be because of these technical exchanges we had. Just responding to the caller on one point, you know, those purchases of key resources were made because of influence, but the greatest influence we can have is actually by training generations of leaders in places like Africa who later become the presidents and the prime ministers and ministers of those countries.
DEHGANAnd if we don't do that, we are losing our access and just building on the other point that Alice made, which is a good one. I mean, it is a substantial percentage of companies on Silicon Valley that were founded by foreign borne scientists, and we can't forget that. Our economic security, our national security, actually depends on these types of exchanges.
NNAMDIIndeed, Norm sees education and exchanges as a crucial piece of science diplomacy. We only have about 30 seconds left for you to talk about that.
NEUREITERWell, I agree. I got hooked on this business because I was privileged to have a Fulbright grant to go to Germany in 1955, and I spent a year there in a laboratory working with young people who had been all through World War II, and experienced it from the vantage point as the loser, not the winner. And I just came away from that saying, these issues are so big, I want to spend part of my life trying to build peace in the world and not war.
NNAMDIAnd that's what he's been doing for the past 50 years or so. Norm Neureiter is the senior advisor to the Center for Science Diplomacy at the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Alice Gast is the president of Lehigh University and U.S. Science Envoy to Central Asia and the caucuses. And Alex Dehgan is the science and technology advisor to the administrator of USAID. Thank you all for joining us, and thank you all for listening. I'm Kojo Nnamdi.

Love's Imperative
A Study on Kant and Kolbe
By José Maria J. Yulo
From where does Kant's categorical imperative come? Can Kant's moral vision lead to the virtue of love? To help answer these questions, this paper will set Kant's philosophy against the life of Fr. Maximilian Kolbe. Fr. Kolbe, the martyr of Auschwitz, led a life of love for God and his fellow man so whole in its calling, one is at times unsurprised by this final and most famous act of sacrifice. In allowing his life to be exchanged for that of a prisoner designated to die from isolation at the baleful camp, the Pole bore testament to his faith's highest ideals. What prompted his final, fateful choice and how close does his faith's own imperative approach love? Fr. Kolbe will be compared to Kant in that the former, through his faith, presented an adherence to something beyond human imperatives. Ultimately, this essay will seek to answer whether the differences between imperatives and attainments truly separate Kant from Kolbe.
José Maria J. Yulo is a Research Fellow at the Independent Institute and teacher of philosophy and western civilization at Academy of Art University.

State-owned minerals processing researcher Mintek continues to remains at the forefront of research.
This research is focused on introducing technologies to enhance optimisation opportunities within the sector and extract value from products considered nothing more than waste.
Mintek has initiated a strategic programme to develop competitive waste management technologies for recycling and treating urban waste to recover valuable metals in order to extend mineral resources and reduce the volume of hazardous waste in urban areas.
A research project undertaken in 2018 explored the opportunity of recovering lead metal from electronic waste components that contain Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs).
Electrical and electronic waste (e-waste) is a rapidly growing problem in South Africa which currently produces 360 000 t of e-waste annually.
Discarded computer monitors and television screens containing CRTs represent a major fraction of the total e-waste generated.
The glass that makes up the funnel section of the CRTs contains a significant amount of lead (~20 % Pb).
CRT glass therefore poses serious risks to human health and environmental pollution if illegally disposed of in municipal waste landfills or informally processed through unsafe recycling operations.
Mintek's pyrometallurgy division has developed a thermal processing technology for the efficient extraction of lead from CRT funnel glass.
The process features a simple flowsheet implementing manual separation of the CRTs to generate panel and funnel glass followed by smelting of the funnel glass in a gas-fired rotary furnace to produce lead metal with a purity of 99 % Pb.
This technology has the potential to exploit CRTs as a secondary metal resource of lead while mitigating risks to human health and environmental pollution by reducing the volume of lead-bearing glass in urban areas.

The Roxboro Police Department wants to continue its mission of creating a safer city by decreasing the violent crime rate.
Earlier in the year, the Roxboro Police Department released a report on the city's violent crime data, revealing that the crime rate was at its lowest since 2004.
Crime rates were down nearly 6 percent from last year, according to the data released by the department.
However, the city's three-year average crime rate of 8.12 percent is slightly higher than the state's average of 6.1 percent.
"(Tracking) our crime data to make the city safer is a top priority," said Chief of Police David Hess.
The police department plans to combat the violent crime rate in two phases over the next three years.
In Phase One, the plan of attack is to enhance community partnerships, increase directed patrols in areas where violent crimes occur, increase community policing outreach, promote the "See Something Say Something" campaign and partner with judicial officials to hold offenders accountable.
In Phase Two, police expect to seek judicial support of continued criminal enterprise felony charges, gain judicial support for stronger sentences and enhance partnerships with federal law enforcement partners and prosecutors.
In the early part of the effort, the department plans to host at least two community policing events annually, publish crime data semi-annually to track trends and publicize the success of partnerships or federally adopted criminal cases.
"The more community policing events we have in neighborhoods and business districts the better our relationships are. The relationships are so important because the community then has trust," said Hess.
Building relationships with the community has played a huge factor in the reduction of violent crime rates.
In the last four years, officers have balanced building community relationships and utilizing technology to make their job efficient and effective.
As a result of that commitment the department has seen a reduction in the crime rate.
"We have had a substantial drop in the crime rate and I hope that trend continues," said Hess.
That is why the mission to reduce the crime rate will not only take RPD's plans and efforts but it also will take the community's efforts to achieve the goal.
"I think the goals are important. If the community understands our goals and staff understands our goals, they are more willing to help achieve them because everyone sees the benefit in a safer city," said Hess.
