As the world’s need for large amounts of portable energy grows at an ever-increasing pace , many innovators have sought to replace current battery technology with something better. advertisement Italian physicist Alessandro Volta tapped into fundamental electrochemical principles when he invented the first battery in 1800. Essentially, the physical joining of two different materials, usually metals, generates a chemical reaction that results in the flow of electrons from one material to the other. That stream of electrons represents portable energy that can be harnessed to generate power . The first materials people employed to make batteries were copper and zinc. Today’s best batteries – those that produce the highest electrical output in the smallest possible size – pair the metal lithium with one of several different metallic compounds. There have been steady improvements over the centuries, but modern batteries rely on the same strategy as that of Volta: … [Read more...] about How electric eels inspired the first battery two centuries ago

BRASÍLIA, Brazil — Brazil’s highest court on Thursday rejected a lower court’s decision to remove from Netflix a comedy depicting Jesus Christ in a gay relationship. The head of the Supreme Federal Court, Judge Antonio Dias Toffoli, sided with the streaming platform’s appeal against a temporary injunction banning the movie. It denied the idea that the movie was insulting to Christians. “One cannot suppose that a humorous satire has the ability to weaken the values of the Christian faith, whose existence is traced back more than two thousand years, and which is the belief of the majority of Brazlian citizens,” the judge said. The film, entitled “The First Temptation of Christ”, by the Brazilian production company Porta dos Fundos, came out on December 3 and drew strong criticism from conservative politicians in the mainly Catholic country, from the church itself and from evangelicals. It depicts Jesus returning home with his boyfriend Orlando after 40 days in the desert, as … [Read more...] about Brazil supreme court sides with Netflix over gay Jesus comedy

Former Celtics player and human rights advocate Enes Kanter Freedom slammed the NBA on Thursday for the league’s choice to schedule games in the United Arab Emirates. In 2016, the NBA moved the All-Star games out of Charlottesville, North Carolina, over a bathroom bill it claimed was discriminatory toward the LGBTQ community. However, the NBA recently announced it will be holding preseason games in the United Arab Emirates, where homosexuality is punishable by death. Watch the latest video at foxnews.com “Is it really all about money?” Freedom said on “America Reports” with Fox News’ Gillian Turner. He then asked, if there was enough money on the table, would NBA commissioner Adam Silver schedule games in Russia or North Korea, too. “Where are your principles?” Freedom said. “People need to understand that this is hypocrisy. And this literally shows the NBA’s true colors.” I’m in disbelief! The @NBA is holding preseason games in the UAE … [Read more...] about Enes Kanter Freedom Slams NBA As ‘Hypocrites’ For Scheduling Games In UAE

The reality is that more talent in every part of the country, and the world, now has access to greater opportunities because of the increased normalization of remote work.
