This document summarizes the water crisis in the Middle East region and proposes waterless urinal technology as a solution. It discusses how the Jewish National Fund owns 13% of Israeli land and has planted over 240 million trees. The region receives on average 10 inches of rainfall annually compared to 50 inches in Gainesville, FL and 56 inches in Miami. Waterless urinals could save over 40,000 gallons of water per urinal each year by not requiring flushing, and have already been established in over 100,000 locations in the US. They provide economic, environmental, and hygienic benefits while only requiring cartridge maintenance 3 times per year.

Fisheries and aquaculture sectors in Bangladesh: an overview of the present s...
Fisheries sector in Bangladesh represents as one of the most productive and dynamic sectors in the country. This sector plays a significant role in food security, employment, and foreign exchange earnings in the economy. At present agricultural transformation is taking place in Bangladesh. With the changes of farming system, farmers have started to shift their crop land to aquaculture as they considered it more profitable compared to rice production. The production of inland fisheries represents an increasing trend since 1989-90 with a growth rate of around 5-7%. Similarly, marine fisheries have also shown an increasing trend while a fluctuated growth rate has emerged in this sub sector. The fisheries sector in the 21st century is facing the challenges of food security for the increasing population, habitat degradation, urbanization, and industrial development. Development of responsible fisheries management and optimal use of water bodies can address those challenges. Since fishery is a productive growth sector in Bangladesh, it has high potential to contribute in the socioeconomic development of the country.

Save Water By Mahboob Ali Khan
Civilization has historically flourished around rivers and major waterways; Mesopotamia, the so-called cradle of civilization, was situated between the major rivers Tigris and Euphrates; the ancient society of the Egyptians depended entirely upon the Nile. Large metropolises like Rotterdam, London, Montreal, Paris, New York City, Buenos Aires, Shanghai, Tokyo, Chicago, and Hong Kong owe their success in part to their easy accessibility via water and the resultant expansion of trade. Islands with safe water ports, like Singapore, have flourished for the same reason. In places such as North Africa and the Middle East, where water is more scarce, access to clean drinking water was and is a major factor in human development.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

JNF currently owns 13% of Israel land Responsible for developing 250,000 acres and established more an 1000 parks across the country JNF has planted over 240 million trees in Israel.
- 3. Current Water Crisis The Middle East is one of the most arid regions that exists on the globe Average rainfall in the impoverished region is approx. 1o inches annually Gainesville, FL-approx. 50 inches annually. Miami-56 inches Recently, water rationing has been in serious consideration among various countries across the region– including Israel.
- 4. Illustration of Water Crisis
- 5. The Solution—Waterless Urinals Water conservation is of the highest importance among Israelis Introducing waterless urinal technology to Israel is an effective long term solution. Absolutely water-free; no water valve required Over 100,000 already established within the US Average public urinal usage (2 gal/flush) amounts to 40,000 gallons of water used. Over 55 million urinals world-wide…imagine the opportunities for conservation
- 7. Waterless Urinals-How it Works
- 8. F-1000 and F-7000 Waterless Urinal Notice the lack of water-valve/flusher Falcon Tech. offers the F-7000 as means for space efficiency where as the F-1000 is a more traditional shape F-1000 F-7000
- 9. Economic Benefits of Waterless Urinal Technology Purchase price-cheaper to purchase and install because there is no flushing mechanism. Installation takes under an hour per urinal. All you need is a drain Operating costs-save 100% of the water forgone as well as water and sewer charges, both of which are sure to rise in the future Maintenance costs- No cost associated with stuck valves from wear and vandalism Reduced drain maintenance due to calcification Reduced energy cost of transporting water to-and- from urinal
- 10. Environmental Benefits Each waterless urinal can save up to 40,000 gallons a year. Will become more crucial in the future. Est. 5% of world’s fresh water supply is used to carry away urine No further water treatment needed; No CO2 emissions from treatment processes Reduces incidence of water overflow at treatment plants and the environmental cost of cleanup
- 11. Aesthetic and Hygienic Benefits Touch-free– little chance of bacteria transfer that exists among manual flushing systems No water– means there is no breeding ground for bacteria and viruses. Scientific studies show that Falcon operated bathrooms contain 5x less bacteria than auto-flush or manually operated bathrooms No odor–The combination of the airtight cartridge seal and liquid sealant are estimated to be 500-times more effective than conventional P-traps.
- 12. Downsides Maintenance must be upheld for optimal urinal usage 3 cartridge changes per year is all that is required Backlash from utilities companies.
- 13. THE END
