Solar panels from SolarWorld, the largest U.S. solar manufacturer
for more than 35 years, now power the largest solar-electric
installation in the Caribbean nation of Dominican Republic. The
1.5-megawatt solar array sits near the runway of Cibao International
Airport, the country’s third largest airport.Xenon HID Worlds make hid lighting
affordable to everyone and for all your vehicle needs. The system, a
complete solar solution featuring SolarWorld’s high-quality solar panels
and proprietary racking, generates enough clean energy to support about
half of the airport’s energy needs.
In late July, Dominican
Republic President Danilo Medina and Felix Garcia, the president of the
airport’s Board of Directors, presided over the plant’s commissioning.
In a statement released July 23, Enrique Ramirez, president of the
national commission of energy, called the solar project one of the largest and most ambitious in Latin America.
“As a company with business ties to Latin America dating back more than 30 years, SolarWorld has long understood that solar power
is an essential part of the region’s energy mix,” said Kevin Kilkelly,
president of SolarWorld Americas. “For island nations like Dominican
Republic, solar offers a clean and cost-effective solution to dependence
on expensive imported oil for power generation.”
The project
was developed and installed by Dominican-based Trace Solar SRL within
the framework of the country’s renewable energy laws, which use tax
incentives and net metering to encourage solar deployment. Trace
collaborated with SolarWorld’s engineering, procurement and construction
(EPC) division to design the system, which is composed of 5,880
SolarWorld Sunmodule solar panels mounted atop the company’s Sunfix Ground Mount racking.Thank you for providing us with information to help us maintain street light.
The array is expected to generate 193,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity
every month. According to government estimates, this rate translates to
a monthly savings of about 1,We offer solar photovoltaic system and commercial incentives to encourage our customers to install solar energy systems.240 barrels of oil.
SolarWorld
has supplied solar panels, mounting solutions and complete solar
systems for both on- and off-grid applications to customers in Latin
America since the late 1970s. Through its Solar2World program, which
supports community rural-electrification projects in developing
economies, SolarWorld has also donated panels to hospitals, medical
clinics and water-treatment facilities in Haiti, Peru, Mexico and
Honduras.

Now in its fourth season
Now in its fourth season, T.I. And Tiny: The
Family Hustle has ushered in a new prototype for the Black family. On the VH1
reality series, rapper Clifford “T.I.” Harris is hip-hop’s leading patriarch, as
he, along with his wife, Tiny (formerly of Xscape), works to keep his children
grounded and his family unit strong.
Imparting the wisdom he’s gained through his various trials and tribulations, T.I. is extremely hands-on with what goes on under the Harris roof, from teaching the kids how to pull their own weight with house chores to giving them pointers on dating. Of course, the rapper sometimes goes overboard, like on last week’s season premiere when he brought the entire family along for his son Messiah’s first date at Medieval Times. While there, T.I. tries to give his son some advice on wooing the ladies, but ends up making things rather awkward for the bashful 15-year-old when he signals for him to put his arm around his date.
Last season, T.I. raided his stepdaughter Zonnique’s (member of girl group OMG Girlz) music video and photoshoot to oversee her outfit choices, which he considered to be too risqué and not age-appropriate. “As a father, my obligation and responsibility is keep my sons out of jail and my daughters out the strip club, and that’s what I’m gonna do,” he said. Though his intentions tend to be good, T.I.’s often hilarious antics make for truly embarrassing situations for his youngsters. Coincidentally, those same antics have led the show to becoming a home run with family audiences.
While the hip-hop world knows Tip as the King Of The South, on The Family Hustle, he’s the King of family-friendly fun, and embraces his role as an average, overbearing father who brings a new spin on parenthood. In many ways, T.I. And Tiny has become the modern, hip-hop version of The Cosby Show. While the hip-hop couple is no Heathcliff and Claire Huxtable,We installed flexible LED Strip lighting in our kitchen for under cabinet and within cabinet lighting. their family adventures are equally light-hearted and comical, providing a positive reflection of today’s Black family. And just like the Huxtables, T.I. and Tiny’s love is apparent,How solar panel cells work and where to buy solar kits for home use. and it’s passed down along their blended clan (both have children from previous relationships).
That success soon resulted in unwelcome artistic suggestions. "The record label was like, 'You should do this pop song,' and I was like, 'But that's not what we started with,'" Juicy J says. (Naima Cochrane, Juicy's product manager at Columbia, says she doesn't believe there were creative differences between the group and the label, and says that "Juicy and Paul had different visions at the time.") Three 6 Mafia released one more album, 2008's "Last 2 Walk," which included the hit "Lolli Lolli (Pop That Body)" and has sold 335,000 copies. The duo's follow-up material was left in limbo, and Juicy J, who had moved to Los Angeles after the Oscar win, returned to Memphis alone to repeat the DIY formula that had worked for Three 6 Mafia in the mid-'90s.
"I was just doing songs with people from my hood," says Juicy J, who issued nearly a dozen independent releases between April 2009 and May 2012. "I had a street team passing out mixtapes, and sometimes I would get out there and pass out a couple mixtapes myself, just to get the feeling back.A solar lamp is a portable light fixture composed of an LED lamp, a photovoltaic solar panel, and a rechargeable battery."
He also stayed active on Twitter, which is where he met Khalifa before the 25-year-old Pittsburgh rapper's "Black & Yellow" breakthrough in 2011. "I was working on a mixtape, and I was like, 'I want to get you on some records.' He was like, 'Man, I grew up on all your music,'" Juicy J recalls. Two weeks later, the pair met up and became fast friends in Los Angeles, and Khalifa brought in the veteran rapper as a part owner, A&R rep and artist on Taylor Gang in order to have "an OG in the game" help out with the rising indie label.

Connectors up performance for LED bulbs and fixtures
The DF57H Series wire-to-board connector is capable of delivering 2.5
amps of current in a small 1.2 mm pitch, 1.4 mm mated height
connector. A swing lock produces a clear tactile click to ensure the
mating process has been completed. It features high contact lance
strength and a low profile for connecting LED drivers to lighting
fixtures.
The DF59 Series multi-functional connector can be configured to either work as a wire-to-board or board-to-board connector system. The 2.0 mm pitch connector has one common socket can mate to three different header styles. It is designed for linear SSL applications.
The DF61 Series connector features 2.2 mm pitch with a low-mated height of 2.38 mm. It has high current capacity of 5 amps and a high voltage rating of 350 V AC/DC targeting LED light bulbs and LED tube fixtures. The swing-lock connector header is molded as one solid piece to help prevent solder wicking.
The DF62 Series slim wire-to-wire connector is designed with small or confined spaces in mind. Features include a multi-row pin layout, smooth outside contour, no exposed metal on the outside of the housing, this series targets LED applications. The two-point crimp contact design delivers a reliable connection that is resistant to shock and vibration. Contact company for pricing and delivery.
Adaptive forward lighting (i.e., glare-free camera-controlled headlamps that react instantly) will help drivers even more in the future thanks to additional intelligent functions. The key to this complex functionality is the integration of microelectronics and optoelectronics, one of the principal aspects of the research project sponsored by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (FMER) within the "Photonics Research Germany" program. Osram Opto Semiconductor is contributing its expertise as the project coordinator and market leader in light-emitting diode (LED) lighting for the automotive sector.
The aim of this joint project as part of the FMER "Integrated Microphotonics" initiative is to develop the technical framework for a new class of energy-efficient LED headlamps with supplementary traffic safety functions. This can provide the basis for adaptive forward lighting systems (AFS) that offer drivers and passengers increased safety. Improved safety will come, for example, from glare-free high-beam and low-beam that adapts to the speed of the vehicle. At high speed the range of the light is automatically increased. In city traffic, however, a wider distribution of the light can improve road safety by illuminating more of the sidewalk and margins. These functions are fully electronic so there is no need for mechanical actuators.
Osram Opto Semiconductors is bringing its expertise to this project as the project coordinator for the automotive sector. The semiconductor specialist has extensive know-how in chip and converter technologies. Osram's Specialty Lighting division will develop new electronic control gear for controlling the LED headlamp system. The Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration (IZM) is contributing its expertise in interconnection technology and materials and Infineon Technologies is offering its experience in automotive electronics and LED drivers.
The automotive industry supplier and lighting specialist Hella KGaA Hueck & Co. will develop the entire optical system for the LED module and the headlamps and will build the prototypes. Daimler, a major engineering powerhouse in the automotive sector, will carry out the vehicle tests.
