Lichtenberg introduced the Raiz’in collection in 2023 after seeing a wave of poor-quality copies on the market “Raiz’in is a true ‘counterfeit’—studied Lichtenberg offers jewelry with “the same irreverent style to beat the counterfeiters at their own game and ensure that more of you could wear our lockets,” according to the brand’s website “These are no cheap knockoffs,” says the Raiz’in website “They are made in France using jewelry expertise and retail at €350–€390 reflecting our attention to detail and uncompromising quality—and they’re also a chance for us to give back.” The company will donate a portion of its profits from the Raiz’in collection to Make-A-Wish France the organization serving critically ill children “Raiz’in is the opportunity for us to reinvent our classics while making them accessible and useful for a good cause,” Lichtenberg says counterfeiting will help fund something other than terrorism or drug trafficking.” The new line of Raiz’in necklaces comes in six different colors, with three different sizes of pendants.

Take part in our reader survey By Rupo Mapanga2024-07-22T12:56:00+01:00 Sequential high-speed images have captured how dielectric breakdown manifests in polymethyl methacrylate The images have led researchers to uncover an entirely new mode of discharge propagation which they describe as the ‘fastest physical phenomena observed visually in a solid-state material’ Powerful electric fields can cause dielectric materials like polymethyl methacrylate to breakdown and suddenly become conductive in what is known as an electrostatic discharge event Such incidents leave behind tree-like damage patterns (Top) Branch-type Lichtenberg figure channels are opaque and feathery with a distinct central primary channel and a continuous series of secondary branching channels along their entire length (Bottom) Ivy-type channels are smooth and translucent and contain dispersed bursts of secondary branch-type channels perpendicular to the primary ivy-type channel Previous research and theory lack understanding of how electrostatic discharge occurs in bulk materials they tend to focus on a type of Lichtenberg figure – branch-type – which are characterised by their feathery and dendritic patterns researchers in the US have used gigahertz-frame high speed imaging techniques to observe initiation bulk discharge and cessation steps to better understand how electrostatic discharge moves through polymethyl methacrylate The study’s images highlighted a new type of Lichtenberg figure These channels appeared when the team applied larger charges to the polymethyl methacrylate and propagate at 107m/s an order of magnitude faster than branch-type channels The researchers note that continuing to study Lichtenberg figure channels will help researchers engineering materials to be less vulnerable to dielectric breakdown K M Sturge et al, Science, 2024, DOI: 10.1126/science.ado5943 Site powered by Webvision Cloud When driving on Main Street in Stroudsburg you may have noticed a newer addition to Downtown: A painting of an astronaut looking into space on a building across the road from Aaron’s This mural, titled “Dream It, Work It, Achieve It,” was painted in part by Jody Singer, a local artist, board member of GO Collaborative and director and founder of Origins Gallery celebrating Stroudsburg-born astronaut Byron Lichtenberg “That was the inspiration because we thought that was kind of monumental for someone from Stroudsburg and going up into outer space and all that,” he said Singer said the mural’s name was a message for all students within the local area who are working “to do those very things,” as well as to dream big strive to go to new places and help society “But the message is transcendent to everyone,” he said “We can start that at any moment in our life so that’s why we chose to have something like this as an inspiration to everyone who views it The process for the painting started in February with talks between GO Collaborative and Stroudsburg Borough over possible mural locations Singer had his eye on the location for 20-something years because he drove past it every day he asked the owner if it would be OK to paint on it Singer initially had many different ideas for the mural including local icons like bald eagles and “the elusive cougar that nobody seems to see but we don’t,” as well as an enlarged abstract drawing He added that the borough was more looking for a historical tie-in to the mural noting he graduated from Stroudsburg High School After getting approval from the borough and the building owners and he was honored to “have such a thing in our town.” “We had different artists work on this so this was somewhat of a community effort,” said fellow mural contributor Thomas Dillon Singer and Dillon got assistance from local volunteers with Dillon adding that it was a collaboration Singer added that it was “what GO Collaborative does we try to bring people through the arts and business and getting people to do things.” Singer added that another reason they chose the location they did was to add to the “greater mural landscape” in the Downtown Stroudsburg area “We want people to walk around,” said Singer “We want you to discover places and businesses and little areas that might be fun to be at We’re in the business of creative placemaking now Downtown Stroudsburg is on the threshold of a revitalization and this is part of that.” and we don’t even have to speak the same language we can actually visually see something,” said Dillon “Putting murals in the town is a great way to actually accomplish that.” Singer and GO Collaborative plan to add more murals around Stroudsburg “And the murals themselves connect with the community,” said Dillon but just the void of how big it is and how much they liked it So it’s really a good way to connect with the community and it’s a good way to take our talents and share that they try to get a promise from the building owner that they’ll keep them up for at least 10 years but Singer acknowledged that they are in effect temporary art “We will try to come back and fix it as it goes.” Singer added that each mural has been sealed with a protective coating “One of the nice things about these murals is it actually helps put us on the map in a way that’s really fun Singer and Dillon added that GO Collaborative is always looking for artists They are also open to hearing ideas for adding to the artistic landscape of the downtown area Max Augugliaro is the public safety and government watchdog reporter at the Pocono Record.

In 1932 he became pastor of Saint Hedwig’s Cathedral in Berlin. He also attracted the ire of the Nazis by his support of the pacifist Peace League of German Catholics, and was denounced by Hitler’s propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels in the Nazi paper Der Angriff After the Nazis came to power in 1933, Father Lichtenberg attempted unsuccessfully to convince Cardinal Bertram, the president of the German Bishop’s conference, to protest against the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses. In 1935 he protested to Herman Goering against the treatment of the Jews Goering denied everything and demanded that Lichtenberg be taken into “protective custody” for spreading lies about the German state In 1937 Father Lichtenberg helped to distribute clandestinely throughout Germany copies of the blistering condemnation of the Nazis by Pius XI, Mit Brennender Sorge a Nazi led pogrom throughout Germany against the Jews he said from the pulpit of Saint Hedwig’s: ‘we know what happened yesterday That is also a house of God.’ From that time forward Father Lichtenberg prayed publicly during evening prayers for the Jews and Christians of Jewish descent Father Lichtenberg was also taking other actions which ensured that he was a marked man as far as the Nazis were concerned He of course was an outspoken critic of the Nazi program of murdering the mentally disabled and made yet another public protest on the issue in August of 1941 Inevitably he was arrested by the Nazis in October of 1941 When the Gestapo searched this house they found a draft of a sermon that he was going to deliver the next Sunday denouncing a pamphlet written by Joseph Goebbels: ‘this pamphlet states that every German who supports Jews with an ostensibly false sentimentality Let us not be misled by this un-Christian way of thinking but follow the strict command of Jesus Christ: “you shall love your neighbour as … yourself.” Father Lichtenberg steadfastly stated that he was opposed to the treatment of the Jews by the Nazis because such treatment was opposed to Christian charity He said that he agreed with Bishop Galen who had denounced the murdering of the mentally handicapped by the Nazis He summed up his position by stating that Nazism was completely incompatible with the teachings and commands of the Catholic Church He began with this text which all Catholics should live by although it takes courage to do so: “Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul” (Mt 10:28) Pingback: CatholicSaints.Info » Blog Archive » Blessed Bernhard Lichtenberg This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

Lichtenberg makes it a point of principle to search out the finest examples of craftsmanship in the world for her highly engineered and supremely playful jewels Counterfeiting has plagued Marie Lichtenberg since she started her brand four years ago “This was the only intelligent response possible,” she tells me I feel lucky to have had the means to defend myself legally but it has been both tiresome and galvanizing,” she says of the fakes that sprang up in countries into which her business had not even had a chance to penetrate contributed to the product’s now-iconic status A portion of the proceeds from the new line will go to the Rafaël Institute in Paris the leading European center for integrative medicine dedicated to supporting patients and their caregivers during and after cancer treatment “we have been very lucky to have had so much support since the beginning of the brands and have the potential to make a lot of money for good causes the money from counterfeit goods will go towards something other than terrorism and drug deals.” The next drop of Raiz’In lockets will be available online at and at Bon Marché department store in Paris Thanks for visiting SCOL Project: Geodynamic Regimes During Planetogenesis Earth was once perceived as a typical planet in a typical planetary system but the exoplanet revolution renders it an oddball among the rich diversity out there While the origins of biological evolution for long seemed to be inaccessible to quantitative assessments recent work has elucidated the first steps from inanimate matter to the emergence of life These steps can occur in UV-stimulated reservoirs of surface water in a relatively stable atmospheric setting sulfur- and nitrogen-based chemical compounds This represents a set of criteria for seeking potential environments in which these steps can operate our ability to predict conditions at the planetary surface have been insufficient for this task This is a proposal to extend planetary physics to identify the planet-forming pathways required for the onset of prebiotic chemistry From the perspective of our best data point we return to the fundamental questions: Are we a cosmic fluke Or do physics and chemistry act in concert to converge to Earth-like surface environments With the recent advances in prebiotic chemistry and the rapid detection and characterization of ever more planets beyond the solar system we are in a prime position to advance our understanding of how rocky worlds like (and unlike) ours form and evolve When do formation and evolution create the conditions for abiogenesis I propose a study of the early dynamical evolution of rocky planets in order to derive the range of possible planetary environments and to set the solar system terrestrial planets in the context of the exoplanetary census Using recent theoretical tools from the fields of astronomy I will study the coupled interaction and dynamics of the interior and atmosphere of young rocky planets I will derive the primary evolutionary archetypes of rocky worlds and the supply and availability of critical volatile molecules for the origins of life in surficial aquatic settings Assessing the plausibility of origin-of-life theories in the range of possible planetary surface environments will inform prebiotic chemists on the robustness dynamics and potential chemistry of varying planetary settings and the physical regimes in which these can operate These investigations synergize strongly with existing research initiatives within the Simons Collaboration on the Origins of Life and at my proposed host institution My work will establish crucial links between planetary and atmospheric sciences astronomy and prebiotic chemistry and will help us to better understand the origin and place of our own world in the galaxy By Karen Dybis | June 28 but it adds a level of responsibility that can weigh someone down becoming a mom destabilized her in what turned out to be the best way “Everything flipped in my life in just a period of months,” Lichtenberg says I decided I might as well change along with them.” Fatigue from long nights with her babies mixed with restlessness proved the right formula for Lichtenberg who says her desire to create jewelry arose during this chaotic period Lichtenberg thought about what she had going for her she had a fashion background from her work at Parisian magazines—Lichtenberg had been a fashion editor of French Elle for 12 years she had a strong aesthetic thanks to her mother who’d owned an antiques store and taught her about jewelry So Lichtenberg took time to consider what she wanted to do within this new season of her life you go straight to the point,” Lichtenberg says Thankfully I had a nice husband who told me to do what I love and that I should express myself.” mothers and motherhood proved to be the catalyst Lichtenberg’s mother had given her a favorite piece of jewelry—a chain Creole women wear to represent the cost of freedom Lichtenberg says she wanted to give her daughter something similar and decided this was the inspiration for what she would do next in her career Everything came together in 2019 when Lichtenberg went to India, set up her manufacturing relationships, and formally started her brand. One of her first jewelry pieces was the Love You locket, an intricately detailed pendant that took off like a rocket when she posted a photo on Instagram Marie Lichtenberg was officially in business I knew I had to do something uniquely me.” Many people have copied Lichtenberg’s locket designs, which she regards as both a tribute and a challenge. Her response to the imitators was to create a collection called Raiz’in, which replicated her lockets in fashion jewelry form. It debuted this month and has already sold out Lichtenberg calls Raiz’in a “perfect counterfeit” that maintains her craftsmanship and high standards for jewelry They come in four colors and still look like a Marie Lichtenberg design She is donating a portion of the proceeds to the Rafaël Institute which supports patients and their caregivers during and after cancer treatment counterfeiting will help to fund a good cause,” Lichtenberg says Top: Marie Lichtenberg says motherhood and a supportive family were inspirations behind her jewelry brand Follow me on Instagram and Twitter of Wayne State University has been installed as the new president of The Gerontological Society of America (GSA) the nation’s largest interdisciplinary organization devoted to the field of aging which consists of more than 5,500 researchers Lichtenberg is the 78th person to hold the office since the society was founded in 1945 he will oversee matters of GSA’s governance and strategic planning while also managing the program for GSA’s 2022 Annual Scientific Meeting He has chosen “Embracing Our Diversity Reimagining Aging.” as the theme for this conference which will take place in Indianapolis from Nov “It is a tremendous honor and pleasure to be the president of GSA,” Lichtenberg said “I am so fortunate to be surrounded by the exceptional staff at GSA an outstanding Board of Directors and board chair as well as the talented colleagues who lead our sections and groups.” Lichtenberg is the director of the Institute of Gerontology (1999 to present) and a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Wayne State University faculty member and administrator throughout his career his professional roles underscore his commitment to growing gerontology programs and promoting environments for colleagues and students to flourish He also continues to have a private practice as a clinical geropsychologist he helped create and lead the Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience research program a pre-doctoral training program in urban aging and health and for 23 years has co-directed Michigan’s Urban African American Aging Center He created an ongoing and award-winning community engagement program and recently led the creation of the Institute of Gerontology's first endowment campaign from Washington University and master’s and doctorate in clinical psychology with a concentration in aging from Purdue University his clinical and research work has focused on the intersection of geriatric medical rehabilitation financial decision-making and financial exploitation The author of several assessment instruments he has authored 200 peer reviewed publications Lichtenberg’s expertise in the growing field of financial capacity assessment and financial exploitation of older adults is especially relevant given the challenges faced by families nationwide in supporting aging loved ones,” said GSA CEO James Appleby “The importance of this work has been further magnified by the social isolation that has accompanied the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting increase in exploitation of older adults.” The Gerontological Society of America (GSA) is the nation's oldest and largest interdisciplinary organization devoted to research The principal mission of the Society — and its 5,500+ members — is to advance the study of aging and disseminate information among scientists GSA’s structure also includes a policy institute Brady Lichtenberg is a 6-1, 175-pound Pro-Style Quarterback from Toledo, OH.
