GERMANNA STUDENT BEATS CANCER, WINS NATIONAL AWARD FOR TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION
Germanna Community College student John W. Tyler of Stafford County has been selected as one of two national 2011-2012 Terry O’Banion League for Innovation in the Community College Student Technology Champions.
“The League received a record number of nominations this year and the competition was strong, but John’s accomplishments and personal story rose to the top,” said the League’s LaRita Phillips. “The selection committee was impressed by John’s dedication and passion for the technology field. His perseverance when faced with adversity is inspirational.”
Tyler will receive an award of $1,000 and will be honored at the League’s annual Innovations Conference in Philadelphia on March 5. Germanna Associate Professor Anita L. Sutton, who nominated Tyler, will attend the conference and will also receive recognition. The other League Student Technology Champion to be honored is Justin G. Cree Carl of Sandberg College, in Gaylesburg, Ill.
Tyler has maintained a 3.85 grade point average at Germanna in spite of going through hardships that included battling cancer.
“The struggle has been monumental while going through treatments,” Tyler said. “If not for the faculty and instructors, especially Gerald Miller and Anita Sutton, my accomplishments through Germanna may never have been possible. Germanna is an institution that cares about people, and employs some of the brightest and most caring people I have ever met. There are a lot of people who deserve recognition, including the faculty. There are many people going through hardships that choose to fight every day, such as single mothers struggling to make a better life, students with disabilities, students with medical issues and depression, and other cancer patients. At Germanna, anyone is welcome and can have an opportunity to change their stars.”

As part of the library's 50th anniversary open house a technology showcase was setup to display the evolution of talking book players in the NLS program. In this picture you can see from right to left, the first wooden phonograph record player, a new wooden record player, a plastic record player that used transistors, a combination record and cassette player, an E-1 easy cassette player, the current workhorse C-1 cassette player and then standard and advanced digital talking book players.
"While using biogas technology, annually we can produce more than 10 million tons of organic fertilizers," said Ravshan Yuldashev, Director of the Milk Agro dairy farm in Zangiota district, Tashkent region. "These fertilizers are full of natural elements which improve the structure of soil and saturate it with nitrogen."

Microchip Technology's mTouch™ Projected Capacitive Touch-Screen Sensing Technology and PIC16F707 8-bit microcontroller (MCU), featuring two 16-channel Capacitive Sensing Modules (CSMs) that can run in parallel for increased sampling speed. The MCU is available today for just $0.99 each in volume and, along with the mTouch projected-capacitive technology and development kit, enables designers to easily integrate projected capacitive touch-sensing functionality into their application with a single MCU, thus reducing total system costs and increasing design flexibility.

Wafa Garbout – VoTek: Wafa is a co-founder of VoTek, an online platform dedicated to promoting participatory democracy in Tunisia. VoTek aims to enable Tunisian citizens to report a problem or make a demand to the municipality they live in. Wafa explains that VoTek allows “users to pull up the map of Tunisia and choose which governorate and area they live in. If they think a certain area needs a public park for example, they can suggest or report that.” After enough votes, the issue will be raised to the municipality to look into it. Participatory democracy became enshrined in the new Tunisian constitution after the Revolution ensuring citizens are included in the decision-making process.
Wafa believes the Tomorrow’s Leaders program’s emphasis on engaging student in extra-curricular activities helped her a great deal in gaining the skills she needed to turn her idea into an action for positive impact in her community. The program which encourages civic engagement and leadership development through activities that go beyond the traditional classroom requires each student to present a final capstone project. Wafa and her team started working on VoTek during a hackathon “Hack4Democracy” with the International Foundation for Electoral Systems IFES Tunisia, and then developed it more to become her idea for the capstone project that won the second place. It was through one of the courses required by the program “Leadership in the Public and Private Sector” that Wafa refined the concept. Wafa affirms that “The course was great for developing my project management skills and helping me write a budget.” In line with her dedication to establishing participatory democracy in Tunisia, Wafa worked over the past summer with the Delegation of the European Union to Tunisia providing electoral and political analyses.

Noodlelike fibers stretch to latch onto a green sphere. Alone each fiber is powerless, but together they grip and support the orb, embodying cooperation at a microscopic scale. This electron microscope photograph catches self-assembling polymers in action, but it could also represent people's cooperative efforts to save Earth, says materials scientist Joanna Aizenberg of Harvard University. "Each hair represents a person or an organization," she says. "It shows our collaborative effort to hold up the planet and keep it running."

Aizenberg and her colleagues design self-assembling polymers in hopes of creating energy-efficient materials. They have snapped many similar photos of micrometer-scale cooperation. This image shows hairlike fibers of epoxy resin assembling around a polystyrene sphere, which is about 2 micrometers in diameter.

My husband is an electrician by trade and he had much fun planning and installing the wiring throughout our house when we built it. This is just the back to one of our stereo components for our whole house sound system. Technology has come a long way since the transistor radio!
