Hispanics higher than average usage rates of smartphones, television, online video, social networking and other forms of entertainment make this group one of today’s most engaged and dynamic populations in the digital space (Nielsen). As CSO for Mashable – the independent news site with 20 million unique monthly visitors and 10 million social media followers – new media entrepreneur and commentator Adam Ostrow responds to the new challenges social and mobile are creating for publishers and advertisers -- from curation and user experience to second screen impact, connectivity in the car, brands as content creators, and more.

Access to Electricity in Odighi Community in Edo State Using Photo VoltaicOgbemudia Godfrey
The project “Access to Electricity in Odighi Community in Edo State Using Photo Voltaic” has been implemented by the Community Research and Development Centre (CREDC) as part of the PREEEN Project (Promoting Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency in Nigeria). It was implemented with support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the Global Environment Facility Small Grant Programme (GEF-SGP) and the Green Grant Fund (GGF). The Project was implemented in Odighi Community located in Ovia North-East Local Government Area of Edo State, Southern Nigeria.
In Odighi Community before the implementation of this project, the community was not connected to the national electricity grid and thus lacked access to electricity. This forced many of the inhabitants to rely on diesel and petrol generators for electricity supply for those who can afford it and majority of the community people used paraffin lamps and kerosene lanterns for lighting at night. This situation exposed them to various respiratory disease associated with the burning of hydrocarbon based fuel to generate heat and light energy and also increased poverty level as they kept spending more of their household income on unsustainable domestic energy sources.
The objectives of the project were: 1. To increase access to modern energy services (electricity) in Odighi Community using solar generators (Photovoltaic systems). This will enhance access to information, boost educational activities, reduce the incidence of respiratory diseases and discourage the use of traditional energy sources (kerosene lanterns, local paraffin lamps, diesel and petro generators) causing the emission of greenhouse gases leading to climate change. 2. To build capacity in the community to install and maintain photovoltaic system. This will ensure the participation of the community in the proposed project and to empower the community members sustain the project and to become potential employees in the emerging renewable energy industry in Nigeria. 3. To create awareness on the potential for renewable energy technologies (RETs) to address the energy crisis in Nigeria and at the same time mitigate the emission of greenhouse gases.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Bing is stitching together the pieces of the digital web to reassemble them into coherent objects. (iotw, an airplane has thousands of characteristics, but those characteristics are spread out on sites across the web. Some sites might have the plane’s length, another has the seating capability, another has safety record.) The challenge is to scour each of these sites, understand they are talking about the same plane, and ‘rebuild’ the physical object in digital so Bing can understand what it is, and what it can be used for. (For slide help: imagine you want to know the largest aircraft with the fewest engine failures, with the above scenario, Bing could do it). · Bing has 6 Billion facts, 28 Billion entities, and growing very rapidly· For people, we have the largest collection 1.2Billion.· For places such as US restaurant alone, we already have 1.1mm entities· For things like Movie, we have over 800K entities with very rich information.· This information fabric is the connective tissues for our devices to seamlessly connect to the people, places, and things that our users care about. For search, this is a major accomplishment. But it isn’t enough. People are trying to do more things with more things.
In addition to the three parts of the platform I talked about, there are other areas we are working on to make interacting with our expert systems and devices more seamless. · Deep Neural Networks for speech and vision· Advances in semantic understanding (critical for entity understanding); advances in resource/reward allocations· Sensors to give devices the ability to better understand their situations and provide assistance when needed.
The above scenario will be enabled through two things:· Powerful Bing (understands the world, the realtionships, and actions0· Increased sensors on all devices, connected to the webo Examples: Streetline (parking automation), home automation and intelligence (SmartThings), medical devices (Scanadu), cars (Tesla Model S), GE systems (Predictivity)
· All these signals on a common TCP/IP transport – what is a machine to do?· Need a Babelfish
