Jim explores what are the most popular interpretations of quantum mechanics and how we might need to be a little more specific when we talk about ‘reality’.
Jim's book "Quantum Reality" is now available on Amazon: https://geni.us/OF5X

Jim Baggott is an award-winning science writer. He trained as a scientist, completing a doctorate in chemical physics at the University of Oxford in the early 80s, before embarking on post-doctoral research studies at Oxford and at Stanford University in California.

He gave up a tenured lectureship at the University of Reading after five years in order to gain experience in the commercial world. He worked for Shell International Petroleum for 11 years before leaving to establish his own business consultancy and training practice. He won the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Marlow Medal for his contributions to scientific research in 1989.

The Chinese Automaker Changing the Market in Africa | China/Africa Big Business | Business Documentary from 2013

Episode 5: Moving Africa
In this fourth episode, we look into how Chinese automaker BAW is changing the market in South Africa. In the second part of the video, we follow how Chinese companies are working on rebuilding infrastructure in Angola.
This series looks at how big Chinese enterprises have found a foothold in Africa, how they’ve often had to adapt their approach and strategies to fit the African market, and how Chinese and African employers, employees and business partners have learned from and influenced one another.

OMOWALE #MALCOLMX: Lessons from "OUR LIVING BLACK MANHOOD"

ShakaRa will be exploring the influence of Omowale Malcolm X, in shaping his ideals of Manhood.

Affirming Black Manhood
Tickets & Info: https://www.shakaraspeaks.com/

It has almost become unpopular to talk about what it means to be a man, to deal with the concept of Manhood. You’ve got to deal with it.
About this event.

WE ARE BLACK MEN!

“It has almost become unpopular to talk about what it means to be a man, to deal with the concept of Manhood. You’ve got to deal with it. You can’t get around it.” – Nana Amos Wilson

“Affirming Black Manhood” attempts to contribute to the process of Black man taking back the power to define, develop & project what it means to be a Black Man. Our facilitators approach Black Manhood from varying perspectives, with an emphasis on promoting the values, principles & ideals that represent the best of who we be... And need to become.

We will engage a series of workshops on various aspects of Black Manhood, including space for general discussion. Our special guest facilitators are all Black Afrikan Men with a proven track record of sustained work with Black Men; addressing issues pertaining to Black Manhood!

We feature:

BABA MWALIMU BARUTI • DEFINING PRINCIPLES OF BLACK MANHOOD

ROBIN WALKER • THE ECONOMICS OF BLACK MANHOOD

IFAYOMI GRANT • CHALLENGING MISOGYNY: REBUILDING AFRIKAN MANHOOD

BRO. LDR. MBANDAKA • BLACK MANHOOD, FATHERHOOD & RITES OF PASSAGE

BABA BUNTU • THE POWER OF BLACK BROTHERHOOD

Transcript of closed captions:

0:05: We are approaching a redwood tree. To animate a scientifically accurate leaf, artists studied the texture of a redwood leaf specimen on a glass slide at high resolution. They even counted the stomata, and used that exact count for this film!

0:25: These leaves would be measured on a centimeter scale. Throughout the animation, we will gradually zoom in to smaller scales.

0:40: As we approach a single stoma, we are now on a millimeter scale.

0:48: As we enter the interior of the leaf, we see many individual palisade cells. These cells are where photosynthesis takes place; they are translucent to allow sunlight to enter.

1:00: As we approach a single palisade cell, we’ll zoom down to the micrometer scale. The shapes inside the cell are organelles: the bright globules at the bottom are the Golgi apparatus; the yellow spotted tubes are endoplasmic reticulum studded with ribosomes.

1:09: That large, blue membrane surrounds the nucleus; the purple blobs are mitochondria.

1:18: The faint, yellow, spider-web structure of the cytoskeleton provides structure and support to the cell.

1:24: You are about to enter a chloroplast; inside you see flat, pancake-like membranous structures called thylakoids. This is where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place to produce ATP, the cell’s energy carrier molecule. way


1:38: The time scale has changed: the molecules are shown moving 1 million times slower than in real life!

1:42: As we near an individual thylakoid, the animation scale continues to shrink down to the molecular level, where things are measured in nanometers.


1:52: The green and blue bush-like structures are photosystems: clusters of proteins that absorb light energy from the sun and help convert it into the chemical energy that’s stored in the bonds of the energy carrier molecule called ATP.

2:03: The yellow-green, rotating structure is an enzyme called ATP synthase. This molecular machine facilitates the flow of protons down their concentration gradient from one side of the thylakoid membrane to the other, using the energy released in the process to assemble ATP.

2:16: The pulses of light in the thylakoid membrane in which the photosystems are embedded represent energized electrons being passed from one photosystem to another, passing along the energy which will be stored in the bonds of ATP (the classic “bucket brigade”).

2:26: The small “wigglies” are ATP molecules. Living things store energy in the bonds of the ATP molecules and then use that energy to conduct all the processes of life.

This animation is a model, and has its strengths and limitations. In order to model something well, visual artists have to make decisions about what to represent and how best to do so. What’s present in this model, and what’s intentionally missing or altered? Find out by visiting https://www.calacademy.org/edu....cators/travel-deep-i
