HOW TO CLEAN NIKE SHOES
For best results, clean your shoes immediately after exposing them to dirt.
SHOE CLEANING GUIDELINES
- Remove excess dirt first. Use a soft-bristled brush (shoe brush, old toothbrush) to clean the outsole.
- Mix warm water and a small amount of laundry detergent so the mixture is slightly soapy.
- Use a sponge, soft cloth, or soft brush to apply a small amount of the water/detergent mixture and clean the affected areas.
- Using another sponge or soft cloth, apply a small amount of warm water to remove any excess detergent.
- Air dry the shoes at room temperature.
- Repeat these steps to attempt to remove persistent stains.
Saddle soap can soften leather, so we recommend using it only on
leather components on your shoes that are not subject to excessive
stress.
Do not use saddle soap on soccer cleats, basketball shoes, golf
shoes, training shoes, or any other shoes designed for sports or
activities involving lateral movement.
We do NOT recommend any other cleaning methods, placing your shoes in
a washing machine or dryer, or using any other products on your shoes
such as bleach or other chemicals. Please only follow the guidelines
listed above.
CLEANING INSOLES TO REDUCE SHOE ODOR
- Remove the insoles from your shoes.
- Follow the same cleaning steps listed above.
- Air dry completely before putting the insoles back in the shoes.
If cleaning insoles does not reduce shoe odor, please replace the
insoles. Replacement insoles are available at most sporting goods and
shoe stores.
-ing form:
- as a verb
- Using another sponge or soft cloth, apply a small amount of warm water to remove any excess detergent.
- as noun/gerund
- placing your shoes in a washing machine or dryer
- as adjective
- If cleaning insoles does not reduce shoe odor, please replace the insoles
-ing is a suffix used to make one of the inflected forms of English verbs. This verb form is used as a present participle, as a gerund, and sometimes as an independent noun or adjective.
What parallels the usages of present participles as adjectival or adverbial phrases is that past participles can also be used as adjectives or adverbs, but not as nouns. Aside from present participles, past participles, and gerunds, infinitives, the other type of nonfinite verb, can be used as adjectives, adverbs, or nouns.

Direct and Indirect Speech
Channing Tatum: A Work in Progress
In Steven Soderbergh’s 2012 film “Magic
Mike,” we meet the title character, played by Channing Tatum, as he emerges
from postcoital slumber into a beer-colored Tampa morning, dragging his
remarkable body — huge shoulders, tiny waist, a bas-relief of bare buttocks —
to the bathroom to shave his pubic hair. “Foxcatcher,” the new film by Bennett
Miller, opens to a somewhat different expression of Tatum’s intense and
bankable physicality: the figure of Olympic wrestler Mark Schultz grappling
violently on the mat with a dummy, the camera trained on his squirming fingers
and misshapen ears, the microphone uncomfortably sensitive to the sound of his
panting. After practice, Schultz retreats to a grim brown apartment where the
lampshades don’t entirely cover the bulbs, and where a gold medal in a
velveteen case seems to offer hollow consolation. This is a Tatum role bereft
of sexual glamour; the jock has come crashing down to earth.
One of those blockbusters, “21 Jump
Street,” offers a hilarious exploration of the high school reunion effect. In
it, Tatum plays a barely literate meathead (opposite a meek and bookish Jonah
Hill) who returns to high school as an undercover police officer to find that
the behavior that had made him a popular teenager — for example, punching a
black, gay student in the parking lot — now begets outrage. Reid Carolin,
Tatum’s best friend and production partner in the company Free Association,
believes that the movie succeeds in part because we are watching Tatum work
through his own life story. “I don’t know if he understands how brilliantly
he’s channeling and poking fun at that part of himself in the character,”
Carolin explains. It’s tempting, in any case, to think that Tatum has been
reappraising an old idea about himself so that he can move on to new ones.
Tatum’s path to fame is well known: a
blue-collar upbringing mostly in Alabama, Mississippi and Florida, an
unsuccessful go of college on a football scholarship, then construction jobs,
stripping, dancing, modeling and, finally, Hollywood. The actor, now 34, had to
cobble together an education along the way. He is still adding matter, to use a
term from sculpture, which has been his quiet passion for the last few years.
“I could never carve away marble like the ancients,” he says. “I’m more of an
additive guy.”
Tatum did not exactly coast through
adolescence on the strength of his appearance, and he did not always believe
that the world of ideas was available to him. As a child he struggled with
A.D.H.D. and dyslexia, was prescribed stimulants and did poorly in school. “I
have never considered myself a very smart person, for a lot of reasons,” he
says. “Not having early success on that one path messes with you. You get
lumped in classes with kids with autism and Down Syndrome, and you look around
and say, Okay, so this is where I’m at. Or you get put in the typical classes
and you say, All right, I’m obviously not like these kids either. So you’re
kind of nowhere. You’re just different. The system is broken. If we can
streamline a multibillion-dollar company, we should be able to help kids who
struggle the way I did.”
I went to New York and did the whole
modeling thing, and I just learned everything I could from anybody who knew
something I didn’t. I’ve had a few John du Ponts in my life, to be honest. I
think that’s one thing I’m pretty skilled at. I can look at a person and say,
They’ve got something that I want up there in their head. I’m going to do my best
to get in there and absorb it. My mom said, ‘Be a sponge.’ And so I’ve learned
more from people than I have from school or from books.”
“Chan’s a blue-collar person, a worker by
nature,” Carolin said. “So when he’s producing or financing or developing, he
doesn’t just want credit for something. He’s looking to get into it, to learn
to do it. He’s so physically talented and good-looking and all that movie star
stuff, but there’s a curiosity in him that originates in the fact that he
really did struggle. Football didn’t stick. College didn’t stick. And yet he
has the highest emotional intelligence of anyone I know. And he has the ability
to teach others, including me, how to make decisions from that place.”
People who know Tatum often refer to his
sweetness, and lately, unbidden, they mention what a terrific father he must
be. In May of last year, Tatum and his wife, the actress Jenna Dewan-Tatum, had
a daughter, Everly. He finds fatherhood difficult, but it has taught him to be
a more diligent student of himself. “You notice your behavior, like, Wow, I
don’t have much patience right now. Why is that?” he explains. “You spend the
day watching this thing constantly taking in information, and you have to be
sure you’re making that happen. At the end of the day when I put her to bed, I
feel glad to have some peace but say to myself, That was so much fun.”
Tatum, who still prefers to work in clay,
cites Auguste Rodin as one of his sculptural heroes. (“My stuff ends up looking
like his stuff,” he says, “although it’s crazy that I would even put our names
in the same sentence.”) He acknowledges that making art has been a refuge from
acting at a time when he has never had more offers. “It’s so internal. You get
so focused on yourself as an actor,” he says. “You never feel totally confident
that you got it right, and in the end the director will cut everything away to
tell the story he wants to tell. With sculpting, nothing is cloudy or mystical.
It’s just about this object, and if you’re trying to depict reality, and you do
it well, then the outcome is the truth.”
“Foxcatcher” is a film that frustrates any
search for the straightforward truth; it offers a devastating account of an
inexplicable act, and Tatum admits that when he first read the script, about
eight years ago, he didn’t understand it. Was John du Pont, played by an
utterly transformed Steve Carell, in love with Mark Schultz? Was he driven by a
desire to please an unloving mother (Vanessa Redgrave, marvelously haughty as
the old Mrs. du Pont)? “There’s definitely an Oedipal element,” Tatum
acknowledges. “But there’s no resolve. There’s no huge lesson. It just tries to
show what really happened, and that’s never easy.” Tatum’s friends say that he
has never prepared more intensely for a role. He trained for it in the gym
during breaks from shooting “White House Down” in Canada. Mark Ruffalo, who
plays Mark’s brother Dave Schultz, advised him to study the real Mark Schultz
closely. Tatum spent a number of days with Schultz, and the two remain in
touch.

Journalist with
Ebola has passion for Liberia

By MICHELLE R. SMITH
PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) — A passion
for Liberia and the plight of its people drove Ashoka Mukpo to work there,
first to aid relief efforts and then as a photojournalist to tell its story.
But Mukpo has an unusual story of his own: As an infant, he was identified as a
reincarnated Tibetan lama, a role he chose not to pursue.
Mukpo, 33, was diagnosed Thursday with
Ebola and was being cared for at a treatment center in the Liberian capital,
Monrovia. His family said he was expected to leave there Sunday and arrive at
the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha Monday.
His mother, Diana Mukpo, comes from an
upper-class aristocratic family in Great Britain. At age 16, she left boarding
school in Scotland and married Tibetan Buddhist leader Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche,
who founded the Shambhala community that spread Buddhism in the West. She was
one of several wives.
They moved to Boulder, Colorado, in the
1970s and set up a Buddhist center, where notables such as Allen Ginsberg, Joni
Mitchell and William Burroughs studied and Trungpa advocated tantric sex.
After starting a family with Trungpa,
Mukpo's mother connected with another of her husband's followers, Dr. Mitchell
Levy, a Jewish man from New York.
Levy is Mukpo's biological father, Mukpo
said in an interview with the Dorje Shugden Buddhist website, but Trungpa
raised Mukpo as his own son.
When Mukpo was a few months old, he was
recognized by another Buddhist lama as the ninth Khamnyon Tulku, or
reincarnated lama, a spiritual leader.
Mukpo's older half-brother, Gesar Mukpo,
son of Diana Mukpo and Trungpa, also was named a tulku and succeeded his father
as leader of the Shambhala community after his death in 1987.
After he died, Mukpo's mother and Levy
married and moved to Providence. Levy is medical director of the intensive care
unit at Rhode Island Hospital and a professor and chief of pulmonary and
critical care medicine at Brown University's medical school. Mukpo's mother is
a horse trainer who owns a stable outside Boston.
Mukpo attended Moses Brown, a Quaker day
school in Providence. He received degrees from Georgetown University and the
London School of Economics.
His more traditional life sometimes caused
angst.
"When you're 15, you can't say,
'Dude, I'm a reincarnated spiritual master from the hills of Tibet, and my
father was this womanizing, drinking, Tibetan-crazy-wisdom genius,' without
people thinking you're weird," he said in the Dorje Shugden interview.
In 2002, he traveled to Tibet with his
parents to visit the monastery that's his family's spiritual home.
"Someone put a sick baby in front of
my face and asked me to blow on it. I did. I'm not going to be the guy who
says, 'This whole thing doesn't make sense for me, sorry!'" he said in the
interview. "Sometimes I do feel like it wasn't my decision to take this
title on, but now I feel like someone put me in the position of abandoning
it."
Mukpo ultimately decided not to embrace
his status as a reincarnated lama, although he's still a practicing Buddhist,
Levy said.
"He's proud of his street cred and
his intellectual credibility that he feels he's earned, and for him, the
reincarnated tulku, although a powerful tradition and a very important
tradition, I don't think he wanted to feel like he was being handed something
he didn't earn," Levy said.
Mukpo has worked at Human Rights Watch and
spent two years in Liberia working as a researcher for the Sustainable
Development Institute, a nonprofit shining light on concerns of workers in
mining camps outside Monrovia.
Levy said his son returned to Providence
in May and intended to pursue a career as a journalist. By August, he saw what
was happening in Liberia and decided to return, Levy said.
"His intention in going back was to
illustrate the tremendous burden and impact of the Ebola epidemic," Levy
said. "He sensed that the international community was isolating Liberia
rather than reaching out to help them."
Mukpo said he was filming inside and
around clinics and high-risk areas but doesn't know how he was infected, Levy
said.
Levy said he's been reassuring his son,
who is staying in an isolation tent and will receive better care in the U.S.,
that he'll recover.
Besides NBC, Mukpo has worked for Vice
News and other media outlets. In an opinion piece in Al Jazeera America on
Sept. 17, Mukpo wrote that in the last few weeks he had seen children close to
death turned away from treatment centers and heard stories of people waiting
days to be picked up by ambulances.
He called the American response to the
crisis underwhelming and slow.
"The most critical element of all is
time," he wrote. "Every life saved matters."

UK menendang keluar para insinyur
untuk bersaing dengan kompetitor kata Dyson
|
|
Britain must stop kicking out the foreign-born
engineers it trains and pay native students to study engineering, according
to James Dyson.
|
inggris harus berhenti melatih dan membiayai para
murid asing untuk belajar teknik, menurut james Dyon.

Writing in
The Financial Times, the prominent engineer and businessman said a
lack of suitable engineers to apply for positions at his firm’s R&D
centre in Wiltshire was holding back the company – and the country.
|
Tertulis di The
Financial Times, insinyur terkemuka dan pengusaha mengatakan kurangnya
insinyur yang cocok untuk melamar posisi di R&D center perusahaannya di
Wiltshire memegang kembali perusahaan - dan negara.
|
|
He said
the solution to this ‘crisis in engineering’, which he claimed meant 61,000
engineering vacancies at British companies would go unfilled this year, was
in offering financial incentives to encourage students into the sector and in
making it easier for foreign students to stay rather than losing their
talents after they graduate.
|
Ia berkata solusi dari 'krisis
teknik', yang berarti 61.000 teknik Lowongan di perusahaan-perusahaan Inggris
akan terisi tahun ini, dalam menawarkan insentif keuangan untuk mendorong
siswa ke sektor dan membuatnya lebih mudah bagi pelajar-pelajar asing untuk

|
|
‘We take
their money and we give them our knowledge,’ he wrote.
|
‘kami mengambil uangnya dan kami memberikan
pengetahuan kami kepada mereka,’ ia menulis.
|
|
‘But then
we kick them out, dispatching newly trained engineers to foreign shores.
|
‘Tapi kemudian kami menendang mereka keluar, mengirim
insinyur yang baru dilatih untuk keluar negeri.
|
|
Our
experts are training the competition.’
|
Para ahli kami sedang berlatih kompetisi.’
|
|
He claimed
that government advisers estimate 20 per cent of all engineers in
strategically important sectors were born abroad, but that employer fees,
paperwork and visa restrictions meant that the world’s most promising
engineers were not being given a chance to contribute to Britain after
studying here.
|
Ia mengklaim bahwa penasihat pemerintah memperkirakan
20 persen dari semua insinyur di sektor-sektor strategis penting lahir di
luar negeri, tetapi pembatasan biaya majikan itu, dokumen dan visa yang
berarti bahwa insinyur dunia yang paling menjanjikan tidak diberi kesempatan
untuk berkontribusi ke Inggris setelah belajar di sini.
|
|
In
response, immigration minister Mark Harper said the four months foreign
graduates had to secure a professional job before they had to leave the
country was plenty of time for those with in-demand skills, and that employer
sponsorship fees were competitive with other countries.
|
Sebagai tanggapan, Menteri Imigrasi Mark Harper
mengatakan empat bulan lulusan luar negeri harus memeroleh pekerjaan

|
Tapi penemu mengatakan ia tidak tahu dari mana
mereka akan datang dan 120 posisi di perusahaan itu

|
He said
that the cost of paying engineering students’ tuition fees would quickly be
recouped through greater tax revenue and provide the necessary skills to
build Britain’s future power stations, high-speed railways and exportable
technologies.
|
Dia mengatakan bahwa biaya membayar biaya

Civil Engineering Heading Back To The Future
Teknik Sipil Bersiap Untuk Masa Depan
|
`You can't
have civilization without civil engineering."
|
`Anda
tidak dapat memiliki peradaban tanpa
teknik sipil."
|
|
That
saying, popular among civil engineers, is as true today as it was when the
Roman aqueducts were built.
|
Pepatah itu populer
diantara para teknik sipil, dan itu memang
benar adanya seperti ketika pada saat itu bangsa romawi membangun saluran
air.
|
|
According
to James E. Davis, executive director of the Reston, Va. based American
Society of Civil Engineers, civil engineering is experiencing a golden era to
rival the mid-1950s, when the Federal Highway Defense Act launched America's
interstate highway system
|
Menurut James E. Davis,
direktur eksekutif American Society
Reston, Va. Berbasis perkumpulan
teknik sipil se-Amerika, teknik sipil sedang mengalami
masa keemasan untuk menyaingi masa pertengahan 1950-an, ketika Federal
Highway Defense Act meluncurkan jalan raya antar Negara
bagian.
|
|
"Move
ahead 40 years, and a lot of those original guys are retiring," Davis
said.
|
“pandanglah
40 tahun kedepan, dan akan banyak orang-orang asli pension,” David berkata.
|
|
"What's
happening now is the supply [of civil engineers] is down, and the demand is
increasing. There's a need to rebuild America's infrastructure."
|
“Apa yang
terjadi sekarang adalah pasokan (teknik sipil) menurun dan permintaan
investasi meningkat. Ada kebutuhan untuk membangun kembali infrastruktur
Amerika.”
|
|
According
to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, civil engineering is the third
largest branch of engineering in terms of employment, after electrical and
mechanical engineering.
|
Menurut statistik Biro Pekerjaan
Umum Amerika Serikat, teknik sipil adalah
cabang terbesar ketiga teknik
dalam hal pekerjaan, setelah teknik elektro dan mekanik.
|
|
About half
of all civil engineers work for companies that produce designs for new
construction projects.
|
Sekitar setengah dari semua insinyur sipil bekerja
untuk perusahaan itu menghasilkan
desain untuk proyek-proyek konstruksi baru.
|
|
Some work
in government positions, while still others are self-employed consultants.
|
Beberapa pekerjaan di posisi pemerintahan, sementara yang lain adalah konsultan wiraswasta.
|
|
There are
seven major branches of civil engineering: construction, environmental,
geotechnical, structural, transportation, urban and community planning and
water resources engineering.
|
Ada tujuh cabang utama teknik
sipil: konstruksi, transportasi lingkungan, geoteknik, struktur transportasi , perkotaan dan
perencanaan masyarakat dan rekayasa
sumber daya air.
|
|
They rely
on computers in the production and analysis of designs, and in simulating how
a structure will perform when finished.
|
Mereka bergantung pada komputer dalam produksi
dan analisis desain, dan simulasi bagaimana
struktur akan tampil ketika selesai.
|
|
Working as
part of an interdisciplinary team, civil engineers frequently consult with
specialists in other occupations to solve problems.
|
Bekerja sebagai bagian dari tim
interdisipliner, insinyur sipil secara berkala berkonsultasi dengan spesialis di bidang lain untuk memecahkan permasalahan-permasalahan.
|
|
In many
engineering-degree programs at the college level, students study basic
sciences, mathematics and introductory engineering courses during their first
two years, then concentrate in a specific area in their last two years.
|
Dalam
banyak program tingkatan teknik di jenjang perguruan tinggi, siswa
mempelajari ilmu-ilmu dasar, matematika
dan kursus teknik pengantar selama dua
tahun pertama mereka, kemudian
berkonsentrasi pada area spesifik di dua tahun terakhir mereka.
|
|
Because
future civil engineers will lead design and construction teams on a variety
of public structures, "leadership skills will be needed," David
said.
|
Karena
Teknik sipil akan memimpin tim desain dan konstruksi di berbagai struktur
masyarakan dimasa depan, “Kemampuan kpemimpinan akan dibutuhkan,” ujar David.

What is Civil Engineering?
|
What is
Civil Engineering?
|
Apakah
Teknik Sipil?
|
|
Civil
engineering is arguably the oldest engineering discipline.
|
Teknik
sipil adalah teknik yang bisa dibilang paling tua dalam ilmu tenik.
|
|
It deals
with the built environment and can be dated to the first time someone placed
a roof over his or her head or laid a tree trunk across a river to make it
easier to get across.
|
Teknik sipil
ini berkaitan dengan pembangunan lingkungan dan boleh jadi ini adalah hal
pertama bagi seseorang untuk membuat tempat tinggal untuknya atau
membentangkan batang pohon agar lebih mudah dalam menyebrangi sungai.
|
|
The built
environment encompasses much of what defines modern civilization.
|
Lingkungan
yang dibangun mencakup banyak hal yang berkaitan dengan masyarakat modern.
|
|
Buildings
and bridges are often the first constructions that come to mind, as they are
the most conspicuous creations of structural engineering, one of civil
engineering's major sub-disciplines.
|
Gedung-gedung
dan jembatan-jembatan sering menjadi bangunan yang pertama dipikiran, karena
hal itu adalah kreasi struktur teknik yang paling mencyolok mata, salah satu subjek pokok dari ilmu
tenik.
|
|
Roads,
railroads, subway systems, and airports are designed by transportation
engineers, another category of civil engineering.
|
Jalan raya,
rel kereta api, jaringan bawah tanah, dan bandara adalah rancangan dari
teknik transportasi, kategori lain dari teknik sipil.
|
|
And then
there are the less visible creations of civil engineers.
|
Dan ada
beberapa kreasi dari teknik sipil yang kurang terpikirkan.
|
|
Every time
you open a water faucet, you expect water to come out, without thinking that
civil engineers made it possible.
|
Setiap kali
kamu membuka keran air, kamu mengira air akan keluar, Tanpa berpikir bahwa
para teknik sipil yang membuat itu terjadi.
|
|
New York
City has one of the world’s most impressive water supply systems, receiving
billions of gallons of high-quality water from the Catskills over one hundred
miles away.
|
Kota New
York telah memiliki salah satu jaringan air yang paling menakjubkan di dunia,
menerima miliyaran gallon air berkualitas tinggi dari Catskill yang jauhnya lebih
dari seratus kilometer.
|
|
Similarly,
not many people seem to worry about what happens to the water after it has
served its purposes.
|
Demikian
pula, banyak orang yang terlihat tidak hawatir tentang apa yang terjadi pada
air yang telah di distribusikan ke tujuan.
|
|
The old
civil engineering discipline of sanitary engineering has evolved into modern
environmental engineering of such significance that most academic departments
have changed their names to civil and environmental engineering.
|
Ilmu kuno
tenik sipil pada teknik sanitasi telah berembang menjadi teknik lingkungan
modern, seperti halnya lembaga akademis yang telah merubah nama mereka dari
sipil dan teknik lingungan.
|
|
These few
examples illustrate that civil engineers do a lot more than design buildings
and bridges
|
Ini adalah
beberapa contoh ilustrasi dari teknik sipil yang lebih mengutamakan rancangan
gedung-gedung dan jembatan-jembatan.
|
|
They can be
found in the aerospace industry, designing jetliners and space stations; in
the automotive industry, perfecting the load-carrying capacity of a chassis
and improving the crashworthiness of bumpers and doors; and they can be found
in the ship building industry, the power industry, and many other industries
wherever constructed facilities are involved.

British Engineers propose sending
a manned wooden spaceship to the moon by 2020.
|
Insinyur Inggris mengusulkan mengirimkan pesawat
ruang angkasa kayu berawak ke bulan pada tahun 2020.
|
|
The engineers, all former
employees of the aerospace division of Chum Group Oy, believe a composite
fuselage made from 40 per cent redwood fibres will provide the spacecraft
with three desirable qualities required for travel beyond Earth’s orbit.
|
Para insinyur, semua mantan karyawan dari divisi
luar angkasa untuk Chum Grup Oy, percaya pesawat komposit yang terbuat dari
40 persen serat redwood akan menyediakan pesawat ruang angkasa dengan tiga
kualitas yang diinginkan diperlukan untuk perjalanan di luar orbit Bumi.
|
|
‘It sounds crazy but this has been
proven our lab tests,’ said Robert Wood, chairman of Suffolk-based Composite
Space Exploration. ’One, it’s light so will use less fuel. Two, its strong,
and it’ll bloody well need to get into space. Three, wood is renewable so
that ticks all the ‘sustainability’ boxes.’
|
"Kedengarannya gila tapi ini telah terbukti
tes laboratorium kami," kata Robert Wood, ketua Suffolk berbasis
Komposit Eksplorasi Ruang Angkasa. "Satu, Ringan sehingga akan menggunakan
lebih sedikit bahan bakar. Dua, kuat, dan itu akan mudah untuk mendapatkan ke ruang angkasa. Tiga,
kayu dapat di perbaharui supaya semua kotak yang 'keberlanjutan'. '
|
|
Wood explained to The Engineer
that fibres from the redwood tree can be extracted in an
environmentally-friendly way and then recombined with what he described as
‘proprietary materials’ to make a composite fuselage that tolerates
exceptionally high temperatures and pressure.
|
Wood menjelaskan kepada Para Insinyur bahwa serat
dari pohon redwood dapat diekstraksi dengan cara yang ramah lingkungan dan
kemudian digabungkan dengan apa yang ia sebut sebagai 'bahan eksklusif' untuk
membuat pesawat komposit yang mentolerir suhu yang sangat tinggi dan tekanan.
|
|
The company’s laminating process,
which is subject to a patent application, is also key to the mission, as it
will help form an ablative skin for re-entry.
|
Proses laminating perusahaan, yang merupakan
subyek permohonan paten, juga kunci untuk misi tersebut, karena akan membantu
membentuk kulit ablatif untuk masuk kembali.
|
|
He added that the development of a
prototype is ‘at an advanced stage’ and that a series of manned test flights
in low Earth orbit are scheduled for 2016 from a site in Kazakhstan.
|
Dia menambahkan bahwa pengembangan prototipe
adalah 'pada stadium lanjut dan bahwa serangkaian uji terbang berawak di
orbit rendah Bumi dijadwalkan untuk 2016 dari sebuah situs di Kazakhstan.
|
|
‘We’ll not risk a human pilot at
this stage,’ said Wood. ‘There’s a pet shop on the same industrial estate as
ours so we’ll likely buy a cat or a dog and then have spacesuits made for
them. If they die? Not the ideal outcome, clearly, but we’ll have gained some
telemetry. If they live? Then that’s the best publicity we could hope for:
the mission is a success and we can launch a range of merchandise – I’m
thinking soft toys - on the back of it. It’s a ‘win win’ and a real fillip
for East Anglia!’
|
"Kami tidak akan mengambil risiko pilot
manusia pada tahap ini," kata Wood. "Ada toko hewan peliharaan di
kawasan industri yang sama seperti kita sehingga kita mungkin akan membeli
kucing atau anjing dan kemudian memiliki antariksa yang dibuat untuk mereka.
Jika mereka mati? Bukan hasil yang ideal, jelas, tapi kami akan telah
mendapatkan beberapa telemetri. Jika mereka hidup? Maka itulah publisitas
terbaik yang kita bisa diharapkan bagi: misi ini sukses dan kita bisa
meluncurkan berbagai barang - Aku berpikir mainan - di bagian belakang itu.
Ini adalah solusi yang saling menguntungkan dan perangsang nyata untuk East
Anglia! '

Bahan dan mendorong produksi untuk penyimpanan
hidrogen
|
|
Engineers at the University of
California, San Diego, have created new ceramic materials that could be used
to store hydrogen safely and efficiently.
|
Insinyur di University of California, San Diego,
telah menciptakan bahan keramik baru yang dapat digunakan untuk menyimpan
hidrogen secara aman dan efisien.
|
|
It is claimed the researchers
have, for the first time, created compounds made from mixtures of calcium
hexaboride, strontium and barium hexaboride. They also have demonstrated that
the compounds could be manufactured using combustion synthesis, a simple,
low-cost manufacturing method.
|
Hal ini diklaim para peneliti telah, untuk pertama
kalinya, menciptakan senyawa yang terbuat dari campuran kalsium Hexaboride,
strontium dan barium Hexaboride. Mereka juga telah menunjukkan bahwa senyawa
dapat diproduksi menggunakan sintesis pembakaran, metode, produksi murah
sederhana.
|
|
The work is at the proof of
concept stage and is part of a $1.2m project funded by the US National
Science Foundation, a collaboration between UC San Diego (UCSD), Alfred
University in New York State and the University of Nevada, Reno.
|
Karya ini dengan pembuktian tahapan konsep dan
merupakan bagian dari proyek $ 1,2 juta didanai oleh US National Science
Foundation, sebuah kolaborasi antara UC San Diego (UCSD), Alfred University
di New York State dan University of Nevada, Reno.
|
|
The researchers presented their
work in March 2014 at the third International Symposium on Nanoscience and
Nanomaterials in Mexico.
|
Para peneliti mempresentasikan karya mereka pada
bulan Maret 2014 pada Simposium Internasional ketiga di nanosains dan
Nanomaterials di Meksiko.

Storing hydrogen has become
increasingly important, as hydrogen fuel cells become more popular power
sources in industry and elsewhere. Hydrogen, however, is difficult to store
as it tends to diffuse through the walls of pressurised tanks. It also needs
to be compressed in order to occupy manageable amounts of space when stored.
|
Menyimpan hidrogen menjadi semakin penting,
sebagai sel bahan bakar hidrogen menjadi sumber daya lebih populer di
industri dan di tempat lain. Hidrogen, bagaimanapun, adalah sulit untuk
disimpan karena cenderung menyebar melalui dinding tangki bertekanan. Hal ini
juga perlu dikompresi untuk menempati sejumlah ruang saat disimpan
|
|
According to UCSD, the resulting
ceramics are essentially crystalline structures in a cage of boron. To store
hydrogen, the researchers would swap the calcium, strontium and boron with
hydrogen atoms within the cage.
|
Menurut UCSD, keramik yang dihasilkan merupakan
struktur dasarnya adalah kristal dalam sangkar boron. Untuk menyimpan
hidrogen, para peneliti akan menukar kalsium, strontium dan boron dengan atom
hidrogen dalam kandang.
|
|
During the combustion synthesis process, engineers
mixed boron with metal nitrates and organic fuels, such as urea, in a box
furnace at temperatures below 400 degrees Celsius. The nitrates and organic
fuels ignite, generating heat that then drives the reaction without the need
for an external source of power.
|
Selama proses sintesis pembakaran, insinyur
campuran boron dengan logam nitrat dan bahan bakar organik, seperti urea,
dalam tungku kotak pada suhu di bawah 400 derajat Celcius. Nitrat dan bahan
bakar organik terbakar, menghasilkan panas yang kemudian mendorong reaksi
tanpa membutuhkan sumber tenaga dari luar.
