A donation of (20USD) will not cost you a lot , but will protect my family to get out to safety 🕊️🕊️
I'm currently seeking donations to support the evacuation of my family (10 family members) from the city of Rafah, where they have been sheltering over the past 6 months.
The lack of food, water, medication, and basic human needs has been worsening as the Israeli genocide in Gaza persists.
My family has never thought of leaving our beloved Gaza until the genocidal state of Israel has made it impossible to maintain life there. The homes of all my family members and their own families have been reduced to rubble alongside the entire village where
My mother, my brother, and my 2 brothers along with their young families have, with a heavy heart, made the tough decision of leaving Gaza into safety in Egypt, escaping the ongoing carnage of death and destruction that has claimed tens of thousands of lives and millions of livelihoods.
Unfortunately, they now have no choice but to leave because, as my brother tells me, “there is nothing left to stay there for anymore.”
In December 2023, I submitted tourist visa - 600 applications for all of my family members through the Department of Home Affairs. I also, concurrently, lodged consular assistance applications for each family member through the DFAT to facilitate their departure through Rafah crossing to Australia.
All of the 10 ‏They were refused a visa after waiting 4 months
Therefore, it is frustrating and heart wrenching, to say the least, that the only way to evacuate my family is to use the sole Egyptian travel agent currently operating across the Gaza/Egypt border who charges large sums of money for each Gazan who tries to escape the genocide - 5k US dollars each!
I'm left with no other choice but to use this travel agent!
Please help me evacuate my family members through the Rafah crossing into Egypt and into safety.
I need all the support that I can muster to help them escape with their lives, secure basic needs in Egypt, and get urgently-needed medication and medical assistance for my sick mother who suffers from diabetes.
I'm counting on your generosity and support.
Every minute counts!

A team of scientists from Ohio University, Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Illinois-Chicago, and others, led by Ohio University Professor of Physics, and Argonne National Laboratory scientist, Saw Wai Hla, have taken the world's first X-ray SIGNAL (or SIGNATURE) of just one atom. This groundbreaking achievement was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Basic Energy Sciences and could revolutionize the way scientists detect the materials.
Since its discovery by Roentgen in 1895, X-rays have been used everywhere, from medical examinations to security screenings in airports. Even Curiosity, NASA's Mars rover, is equipped with an X-ray device to examine the materials composition of the rocks in Mars. An important usage of X-rays in science is to identify the type of materials in a sample. Over the years, the quantity of materials in a sample required for X-ray detection has been greatly reduced thanks to the development of synchrotron X-rays sources and new instruments. To date, the smallest amount one can X-ray a sample is in attogram, that is about 10,000 atoms or more. This is due to the X-ray signal produced by an atom being extremely weak so that the conventional X-ray detectors cannot be used to detect it. According to Hla, it is a long-standing dream of scientists to X-ray just one atom, which is now being realized by the research team led by him.

Interview: Twenty One Pilots by Jay Campbell
Some people will remember Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012 as Athens' first snowfall of the season. Others will fondly recall the date as their first exposure to Twenty One Pilots at the Union.
The band consists of Columbus, Ohio, natives Tyler Joseph (vocals/keyboards) and Josh Dun (drums). I caught up with the duo just before their show that night.
JC: When did you first meet, and did you think you’d end up performing with each other?
Josh: I met Tyler through the band's previous drummer, about two years ago. They said they needed me to play at a show for them and that’s when it all started.
Tyler: After the show, we talked about our dreams and goals, not only within music, but in life, and we just connected. We had the same amount of passion and it just worked out perfectly.
JC: What is the story and meaning behind the band name?
Tyler: Well, it goes back to when I was in college, studying theater at Ohio State University. We were studying All My Sons by Arthur Miller, and it was one of those books that just hit you. The main character made airplane parts for the war, and he found out that his parts were faulty and would fail if used. So he had to make a decision to spend his money trying to fix them, or to use the faulty parts. He decided to use the faulty parts, and due to his decision, 21 pilots died in flight. It showed me that every decision that you make will have great outcomes or dire consequences, and it’ll be something that will forever stick with me.
JC: Some websites label you as rock, electronic, pop or rap. But it's difficult to compare you to bands or musicians in those genres. If you had to create a new genre that would describe your music, what would it be called?
Josh: Wow, that's a tough question. It’s so hard for us to put ourselves in any genre. One of our goals as musicians was to break down the walls of musical genres and combine different aspects into our own. Our manager calls us "pop-rock-piano-rap," which fits us but is a mouthful. If you can think of one and send it to us, we'll roll with it.
JC: On your song "Time to Say Goodbye," you sample "Con te Partiró" by Andrea Bocelli and then rap over it. Could you explain what you were thinking when you did this?
Tyler: Well, I’m really tied to melody. I don’t care what genre it is, if it catches my ear, then there must be something good about it. And then listening to the lyrics, I connected to his message and combined it with mine.
JC: If you had to pick a trademark song–one that that everyone recognized–what would it be?
Josh: It would have to be "Holding Onto You" or "Ode to Sleep." "Holding Onto You" could easily be recognized with its unique rap combined with an emotional-yet-catchy bridge. And "Ode to Sleep" is the closest to us with its meaning; it's probably the most connected with us that any song could be.
JC: Are you currently signed with a label?
Josh: Currently, no. But that should change in the near future.
Tyler: We're not really interested in being signed for the most money possible. We are talking to people that will give us control of the music we make. That's the most important thing we want if we're going to sign with someone.
JC: One final question: What made you want to perform here in Athens?
Josh: Our first time here was last year at one of the fests, and at that time I wasn’t the drummer. I was called by Tyler to come and fill in because the previous drummer quit. So I quit my job and drove here straight from Wisconsin. So I got here in time for the show, and after one song, the fest was shut down by the police. I wanted to come back, redeem myself and have a successful show here.
Tyler: As he said. He quit his job for a show that got shut down after one song. So we both agreed that we would come back and perform without getting shut down. But Ohio University is a cool place all around, and we had to come back!

Coal-like material transformed to amorphous graphite and nanotubes in simulations
In a warming world, coal can often seem the "bad guy." But we can do other things with coal besides burn it. A team at Ohio University used the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center's Bridges-2 system to carry out a series of simulations showing how coal might eventually be converted to valuable—and carbon-neutral—materials like graphite and carbon nanotubes.
Why it's important
Coal gets some bad press these days. Climate scientists predict a rise in average global temperatures of between 2 and 10 degrees Fahrenheit by the year 2100. The possibility of drastic changes to weather patterns, crop growth, and sea levels calls our heavy use of carbon-based fuels like coal into question.
But it doesn't have to be that way.
"The way this [work] came about is there are some engineers here … doing some great work [on carbon-neutral] things with coal," said David Drabold, distinguished professor of physics at Ohio University. "You don't want to burn it for obvious reasons; but can you make construction materials out of it, high-value materials out of it, like graphite? [Graduate student] Nonso and I are really interested in the question, can we get graphite out of the stuff?"
