FPL Engineer Shares Love of Engineering with Under-Served Youth

“It’s important to me to be able to give back to my community by promoting science and engineering fields to children who have limited exposure to them,” said FPL Production Assurance Engineer Melanie Roger. “If I can help get young children interested in the sciences and have a desire to enter into the field, than I feel as though I’ve been successful. We should all do our part in ensuring the success of our future leaders.”

Juno Beach, FL, February 25, 2012 — Florida Power & Light’s Melanie Roger has a passion for her profession.

As a young girl, she dreamed of going into medicine, like her parents. It wasn’t until she got to college, at the University of South Florida, that she decided to change course. Roger switched her major to engineering, hoping it would help her “stand out” among the other medical school candidates. During her course of study, she discovered this was her true love.

“It taught me a different way to think and how to solve a problem using numerous methods,” Roger said. “I want to share that with others.”

As a Production Assurance Engineer at Florida Power and Light’s Lauderdale combined cycle plant, Roger enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for engineering with the youth of her community. She volunteers with a group called SECME – the Southeastern Consortium of Minorities in Engineering. It’s a national organization that seeks to prepare under-served or under-represented students for careers in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.

“It’s important to me to be able to give back to my community by promoting science and engineering fields to children who have limited exposure to them,” said Roger. “If I can help get young children interested in the sciences and have a desire to enter into the field, than I feel as though I’ve been successful. We should all do our part in ensuring the success of our future leaders.”

This month, Roger got a chance to share her passion for engineering with students from 55 schools throughout Palm Beach County. She served as a judge at the annual SECME Olympiad – a competition that’s the result of a year’s worth of study, experimentation and creativity.

This year students squared off at Santaluces High School in Boynton Beach on Feb. 11. The Olympiad theme, “Plan It, Live It, Build It” featured a wide variety of hands-on activities and competitions that included a “Brain Bowl” – a trivia-like game that pits students against the clock and one another, to answer science-related questions. The students also competed against one another to see who could design the strongest wooden bridge, the fastest “mousetrap car” (propelled by a spring through a mousetrap), and the highest-flying water bottle rocket. Other competitions included creating essays, poems, banners and posters for the event.

Roger joined several other FPL engineers as a volunteer judge. “It was so energizing to see how excited the kids were about participating in the Brain Bowl,” she said.

Roger advises students that pursuing a career in engineering can be challenging, but she says it is also very rewarding. She encourages students to feed their curiosity and never stop learning. “Perseverance always prevails,” she says.

NBA Fans Sure That Jeremy Lin Is For Real; In China, Thousands of His Jerseys Are Not

Stony Brook, NY (February 25, 2012) — It took only 10 days for New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin to move from unknown Harvard grad to international, cover-of-Sports Illustrated sensation. That sent New York Times reporters scurrying downtown to discover whether the sharp-eyed basketball phenom had been paid the highest compliment: whether products associated with him, like jerseys and shoes, had been counterfeited and were being sold on the city’s notorious counterfeit black market on Canal Street.

But in China, it’s a completely different story. Counterfeiters in China have stepped up. Can it be a surprise then, that on Wednesday, NY Times article reported from Hangzhou, China that counterfeiting there had already been going great guns? “His jerseys have sold out, even including the counterfeit ones,” said Zheng Xiaojun, a 24-year-old clerk in the capital of Zhejiang province, the home of Lin’s distant relatives according to claims in the People’s Republic. While appreciative of the clerk’s honesty, at the time the article was written there were no “Lin jerseys,” so all the articles in the store were counterfeits-known as jiade, or “fake” in Chinese.

Is there any solution to this global wave of sports clothes fakery?

The phenomenon may seem a classic case of ‘too big to solve, too distant to care.’ But in fact that’s far from the case” says Applied DNA Sciences of Stony Brook, NY, which is already authenticating cotton in the U.S. and wool from the U.K.

Applied DNA is actively involved in the global effort to ensure the authenticity of products and the protection of global supply chains from counterfeiting and diversion. Patented and applied in over a billion products throughout the world, the company’s SigNature® DNA markers are unique, botanical, “green” DNA sequences that can help preserve the quality and integrity of products ranging from pharmaceutics to cosmetics. DNA authentication takes on the big jobs by authenticating the legitimate product, instead of identifying every fake. That is a flexible and eminently practical way of handling the biggest global housecleaning jobs.

New album ‘Harvest On A Hype’ from Dead Smiling Pirates

The Danish rock band Dead Smiling Pirates releases the new album ‘Harvest On A Hype’ on February 27th 2012.

Copenhagen, Denmark, February 24, 2012 – The Danish rock band Dead Smiling Pirates releases the new album ‘Harvest On A Hype’ on February 27th 2012.

Focus groups gave their verdict and chose songs for Dead Smiling Pirates‘ new album. The band used focus groups to determine the quality of the tracks for their new album ‘Harvest On A Hype’. Focus groups identified potential singles and album tracks and two tracks that were not good enough.

The result was that the band scrapped two of the original 13 tracks on the album. Focus groups felt that these songs were not good enough to be released. The album will only contain 11 tracks when it’s released on February 27th 2012.

Lead singer Kim Burmeister said: “It was obviously hard to know that there were two tracks that were not good enough. But we removed these songs from the album. After all, we must admit that the album actually has improved. It’s been a very rewarding process, and it is certainly something we would do again”.

Dead Smiling Pirates comes from Copenhagen, Denmark, and the Danish music pirates set sail on the musical oceans in 2006. The trio plays alternative rock with attitude and they released their debut album in 2007. Dead Smiling Pirates is inspired Paramore, Linkin Park and Foo Fighters etc. The band consists of Kim Burmeister (vocal and guitar), Erik Aaberg (drums) and Rasmus Christensen (bass).
