Being in Rotary is not a part in our life. It’s our life

It was a great feeling when you have the opportunity to wear rotary logo on your shirt. It’s time to take responsibility on your shoulders to serve your community.

When I joined rotaract movement way back in 2024, I never realized that I will represent RI Dist. 3230 as a goodwill ambassador to become a Member of the GSE Team to RI Dist 1880, North Bavaria & Saxony, Germany, during May /Jun. 2013

We the GSE team Sasi, Sharanya, Soundarya and myself Dinesh headed by Rtn. Sabu Balagopal had many meetings to sketch ourselves from Jan to May 2013 before our departure to Germany. We discussed over mails, regular meetings, get together with Rtns, dist conference thought us how big is the opportunity for us and how should we prepare ourselves to take our 3230 brand to fly high with colors.

40 to 4

Departed from Chennai with 40 degree summer and landed in Leipzig via Frankfurt and cool 4 degree of Germany welcomed us. Wow how cool it was…

We received warm welcome from Albrecht Hartge, GSE chair of RI Dist 1880,Germany with his team. We enthusiastic 5 people was looking forward to our next 30 days. Yes we were much excited.

We experienced and learned many things in Germany starting from history. architecture, historical churches, museums, city visits etc.

We had good opportunity to visit World Headquarters of Audi where they hosted our Indian National flag to welcome us. Rotary power is great. We extended our visits to

Advanced Electronics Company (AEC) of Saudi Arabia and KACO new energy of Germany have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to develop new business opportunities in the field of Solar Energy, with the focus on Photovoltaic (PV) Inverters. The purpose is to serve the growing demand for energy in Saudi Arabia and the MENA region.

 

AEC and KACO new energy agreed that it is in the best interests of their companies to work together in exploring the development of Photovoltaic Solar Energy opportunities. Among a number of objectives and initiatives for consideration, is the potential to set up PV inverter manufacturing at AEC, for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and MENA region. The plan is to also establish a customer support and maintenance services center at AEC’s facility in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

 

Dr. Ghassan Al-Shibl, President & CEO of AEC, commented: “This collaboration reflects the respected capabilities of AEC as a world-class electronics manufacturer. I am sure that AEC and KACO will make a very successful team. Our joint initiative also aligns completely with the King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy (K.A.CARE) strategy. Of course, all of our activities underscore our support for local employment, and this is an outstanding opportunity to create new jobs. We believe that our commitment to Saudization sets an example that the whole Kingdom can be proud of. We also look forward to seeing our Nation become the acknowledged leader in solar energy.”

 

Mr. Ralf Hofmann, CEO of KACO new energy, stated: “KACO new energy provides a century of experience, and has ensured its specialized technological leadership through adherence to the highest global technical standards. At the same time, the capabilities of AEC, and their expertise in knowledge and technology transfer, are renowned. We know that AEC is completely ready to handle new opportunities, and is able to move to full production very swiftly. Together, we will support Research and Development (R&D) in the Kingdom, as well as repairs and maintenance for customers. The local manufacture of PV inverters will enable prompt local service and support. This will provide the benefits of a reduced level of items that require to be held in stock, as well as shorter lead times for supply.”

 

The proposed K.A.CARE renewable procurement program will be among the largest sustained efforts of this kind in the world. It is intended to result in over 54 (GW) of energy by 2032.

 

AEC, established in 1988, is an Offset Program company and has become a recognized regional pioneer in the innovation and development of advanced electronics, serving the Military, Telecom and Industrial Sectors. As one of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s premier state-of-the-art technology companies, AEC’s leadership includes expertise in the fields of modern electronics manufacturing, system integration, as well as repair and maintenance services. AEC has become a gateway to highly specialized services and opportunities, offering local access to world-class engineering, manufacturing, repair, maintenance and complete solution capabilities at its facilities. The company also provides the benefit of easy and rapid access to other regional markets, customers and distribution networks.

 

KACO was founded in 1914 and began manufacturing inverters over sixty years ago. The company known today as KACO new energy started as a management buyout (MBO) in 1998, adopted its current name in 2009 and is now one of the world’s largest manufacturers of PV Inverters. The product portfolio offered by KACO new energy today is used internationally for Photovoltaic and Rail Vehicle applications. The family-owned and operated company has factories in Germany, the U.S.A., Canada and South Korea. One of KACO new energy’s latest projects, in December 2012, was to start supplying 400 MW of Solar Power to 70,000 households in Texas, U.S.A. Now, with six GW of Inverters in operation worldwide, KACO new energy is a trusted and reliable partner for photovoltaic systems around the globe.

Arrived over many years

After surviving a review by a bitterly divided Congress, the Iran nuclear agreement is now a done deal. And yet, with regional conflict intensifying, the question of Iran continues to loom large in the American foreign policy debate. As Iran gears up for elections in early 2016, and as world leaders – in business and in politics – flock to Tehran, understanding Iran after the deal becomes an increasingly complex and urgent task.

 

On October 15, the Center for Middle East Policy at Brookings hosted a conversation with Suzanne Maloney, deputy director of Brookings Foreign Policy program and author of the recently released book, Iran’s Political Economy since the Revolution (Cambridge University Press, 2015). Maloney was joined by Javier Solana, a Brookings distinguished fellow and former EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy; and Vali Nasr, Dean of Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies and a nonresident senior fellow at Brookings. The three experts discussed Iran today, the implications of the nuclear agreement, and more. Bruce Jones, Vice President and Director of Foreign Policy at Brookings, gave introductory remarks.

Mouth of Columbia River, south jetty

 

Just as bridges provide safe passage over rivers, gorges or other depressions, jetties built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers help ocean-going vessels move between coastal rivers and the Pacific Ocean. Simply put, jetties are rock fingers which stretch out into the ocean from the beaches, essentially extending the mouths of the rivers well into the sea.

Jetties were never intended to be used for recreational purposes. Powerful waves remove or shift even the largest boulders from the jetties, while underwater currents penetrate the structure, and remove smaller rocks and sand from inside the jetty, creating unique dangers. Some dangers are apparent, such as slippery rock surfaces and strong waves overtopping the structure. Other dangers are hidden and include open crevasses, sinkholes and caverns that are caused by the ocean eroding away stones and sand just below the surface of the jetty.

Pet dogs and human beings have comparable social systems. At some point in history, pets found out to decode human nonverbal language.

 

It may come as no surprise that dogs are capable of extreme feelings. As extremely social, pack animals they have their social structures and bonding routines, many of which mirror human social structures.

 

To your pet dog, you are family. What you feel, she feels. It is as simple as that.

A 2011 study found that contemporary, domestic pet dogs are roughly as smart as a 2-year-old human. They can comprehend the meaning of approximately 165 words and can make sense of body movement.

 

There are numerous human feelings your pet dog understands that you might not know. Sometimes their capabilities can be downright eerie; however, there are strong clinical descriptions for your canine's behaviors.

 

Comprehending how your canine interprets your emotion can assist you to relate much better to your pet.

 

What are the signs your dog loves you?

Aside from the obvious sign such as tail wagging, what are other ways that you can tell me if your pet loves you?

 

Dogs are affectionate animals. They tend to show this affection in quite overt ways.

 

In an article on dogster.com, if your canine keeps trying to sit as close as possible to you, here’s what this might mean:

 

What Are the Signs Your Dog Loves You? The Basics“According to Dr. Gail Clark, a canine behavioral psychologist and owner of K9 Shrink, LLC in Colorado, a dog that’s sitting on your lap, leaning on you, nudging you — or won’t even take his eyes off you — is sending a very clear message that they love you. “Staying close to their owners is a major sign in dog language,” she explains. “If your dog is doing everything they can to be physically close to you, his definitely expressing his feelings for you.” Read full article here.

 

A few theories on why dogs sneeze when they're excitedHave you ever noticed that when some dogs get excited they sneeze? While there may be a medical condition aggravating your dog's nose, this is actually a common sign of affection and play with most dog breeds.

 

In fact, according to an article on Purina (yes the dog food company):

 

“Many dog owners notice that dogs often sneeze when they are playing or excited by something. This is called “play sneezing” and it’s normal and harmless. It just means that your dog is having loads of fun!

Dogs sneeze when playing to signal that their behaviour is only play, and that they’re enjoying themselves. Sneezing when playing is particularly common in small breeds but many dogs do it. If your dog is sneezing when you’re playing together, there’s usually no need to worry.”

 

It’s important to note that a dog that sneezes often may also have other medical conditions. Some conditions could include an infected molar, tumors, or a nasal infection. It’s important to note that some breeds, such as bulldogs and pugs, are also more prone to getting nasal infections than other breeds.

 

Understanding Your Dog's Other Body Language

As outlined, dogs use their body language to communicate. the dog that moves slowly or keeps a distance may not necessarily be interested physical contact. In fact, it could be downright dangerous to approach a dog who appears to be intimidated or scared.

 

Here's a list outlining 7 tips one can use in order to read a dog's body language.

 

A dog who seems stiff, moves slowly, or who keeps moving away may not be interested in social interaction with this playful dog.

 

Looking away, sniffing, scratching, lying down, or other avoidance behaviors may also indicate that the play session is over.

 

A fearful dog may lean away, lean back, tremble, crouch, lower his body or head, or roll onto his side or back. Often, his eyes will often be fully open with large pupils, his forehead will be wrinkled, and his tail will be lowered or tucked.

 

An extremely fearful dog may freeze completely or frantically try to escape, and he may urinate or defecate when approached.

 

A dog displaying aggressive body language will look large, standing with his head raised above his shoulders. His body will be tense, with weight either centered or over all four feet or leaning slightly forward onto the front legs.

 

A dog displaying aggressive behavior may also have a wrinkled muzzle, a short lip and a hard eye.

 

To read the full article, visit ASPCA Pro’s website.

 

Conclusion

When it comes to communication, dogs can quite clearly tell us that they love their owner without saying a word. The physical demeanor and mannerisms of a dog can accurately convey their feelings of affection. By being conscious and mindful of a dog's actions, we can better understand and anticipate how to approach them.

Where is that fine line,

This is a screen capture of the edit software I use to 'detail' the world I want to 'demonstrate

as visual evidence of some inner search for the meaning of the tao.

  

Where a pixl becomes a focus,

And the image looses the honor of the photograph, but moves out of illustration because no artist held a brush?

For me it's about trying to find meaning in the visual world, about detecting what Rupert Sheldrake called 'morphic resonance' the evolving sha ping of time space.

ITC to benefit from Dutch-funded junior professionals

 

9 February 2015

 

(Geneva/The Hague) – The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs today

announced that it would provide funding for two Junior Professional Officers (JPOs) to work for the International Trade Centre (ITC) in 2015, one from a development country and one from The Netherlands.

 

The announcement was made during a visit by ITC Executive Director Arancha González (LINK: www.intracen.org/itc/about/how-itc-works/management/execu...) to the Netherlands, where she and Lilianne Ploumen, Dutch Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation, signed a memorandum of understanding on the JPO arrangement.

 

The JPOs will provide technical assistance, policy advice and capacity building in their roles to contribute to the economic and social development of developing countries, while gaining structured training and opportunities for professional development.

 

The two JPOs are the first to be funded by The Netherlands to work with ITC.

Both Dutch nationals and young professionals from least developed countries will be eligible for the new JPO positions.

 

‘The young professionals will bring innovative ideas and energy to ITC,’ said Ms. González. ‘In return, they will gain relevant, hands-on experience in trade and development.’

 

The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs is happy to provide young professionals from developing countries with an opportunity to start their career with a lot of training and guidance. In the long run these JPOs will also contribute to other UN-organisations as they progress in their career.

 

JPOs are positions in the United Nations funded by the Member States.In the Dutch JPO program candidates are selected by the individual organisations and about 50 percent of all JPOs are candidates from development countries. As per the terms of the memorandum of understanding, selected JPOs are appointed for an initial period of 12 months, which can be extended to a maximum of three years.
