Waltz of Electrons

In the realm of circuits and code,
Where electrons dance, secrets unfold.
Technology, our modern muse,
Weaves dreams in lines of binary hues.

Science, the seeker of truth profound,
Observes the cosmos, its mysteries unbound.
Through telescopic eyes, it peers afar,
Unraveling galaxies, each distant star.

Together they waltz, hand in hand,
In laboratories and cyberspace land.
Science whispers equations to the wind,
While Technology builds bridges to begin.

From silicon valleys to particle streams,
They birth innovations, like celestial beams.
Quantum leaps and bytes of insight,
They illuminate our world, day and night.

So raise a glass to this harmonious pair,
For they propel us forward, beyond compare.
In the symphony of progress, they play their part,
Technology and Science—a dance of heart.

Do costs of renewable energy increase generation? An empirical test across Eurasian countries

Today energy is an important resource in every nation. The countries conduct various energy policies to distribute daily consumption to avoid shortages. According the goal SDG 7 of United Nation access to affordable energy by 2030, (UNSD, 2021) and models of World Energy Model (WEM), Energy Technology Perspectives (ETP), Global Energy and Climate (GEC) which adopted by International Energy Agency (IEA) to refer transition for renewable energy by 2050.(IEA, 2022) Hence, renewables are developing sector-by-sector and region-by-region to transform from traditional into alternative energy and replace to diversify the energy sector.     

Implementation of renewable energy by government and investor impose in differently from both side. Financing from government require subsidizing to equalize for internal or external price of energy. The main cost of renewable energy by government is subsidizing for public power system.(Zhao et al., 2014) Government can subsidy such as interest rate, financing entirely of the project, providing in-tariff policy etc,. In previous years for constructing traditional energy power generation plants have been commissioned 61% state-owned enterprise and 35% from private companies.(Steffen, 2018).

Additionally it depends on government budget to allocate expenditure for realization of electricity or energy plants. In terms of government expenditure, investment incentives are the main important indicator to finance Renewable Energy Sources projects respectively. Moreover, projects of RE should be considered with stakeholders and government in different stages (Lam & Law, 2018) and accept Energy Service and Power Purchase Agreements. (Ottinger & Bowie, 2016) But, Power Purchase Agreement in some countries is not implemented and this risk to financing RE projects, the costs which include capital flow can be decreasing concerning investment of private sector that give the result decreasing of development RE plants.(Taghizadeh-hesary & Yoshino, 2020) According financing by government, RE supports by international organizations on the frame of SDG 7(International Renewable Energy Agency, 2022).

So, initial capital or investment define the government expenditure and finance flows by international organization (some emerging countries receive).Considering the cost of renewable energy we can explore the improvement and implementation the projects of RE. Compare with creation RE technology with today’s update equipment, it is differ from with price decreasing and installation is cheaper than previous technology and it has increased confidence for using (Ellabban et al., 2014). Especially wind energy supposed one of the low cost technology (Østergaard et al., 2020)(Blaabjerg et al., 2014) 

Operation and maintenance cost for RE installation is more sensitive because of different type soft energy, such as, solar PV, wind, hydro, geothermal, biomass etc,. Thus, estimation and analysis reveal some uncertainty.(Wilson, 1984) We used a cross-country dataset of 72 Eurasian countries for the period 2019 and our proxy variable is capital cost the other variables are independent vector variables which reveal the significance to the model.  

In our study we take one proxy variable: initial cost for installation RE or capital cost that understanding with government and investor costs, investments from international organization that we use jointly as capital investment. Operation and maintenance (thereafter O&M) cost we omit because of opacity distribution in this case and it derives from capacity of generation installation in total.(Wilson, 1984) According the positive relationship between RE generation and costs, we find that costs are the main indicator and without any investment have not development in this field.     

Our results show that capital cost has a positive relationship with RE generation. Moreover, this study impact to invest on RE generation to achieve for sustainable and affordable energy resources. This finding not only substantially contribute to the extent literature, but also pay attention for policy and decision makers to increase the share of generation RE among Eurasian countries especially nations that dependent to traditional energy. Finally, we use OLS econometrics method and check for robustness standard error tests to avoid heteroscedasticity.

I liked tracing

Currently thinking
about how
if I had to split my life in two

the before
and the after

it would start with watching
Avengers Endgame
in Daly City theater
on the week after opening weekend

For you, 
it was just like any day
you gave me everything.
But for me,
it was the day I noticed the cracks in my basin
the thin, hidden lines that have continued to widen
and from my point of view
I started to see
how they aligned up with yours
in a completely different way.
I wondered if they would grow into tendrils
and now I know
they would.

I am now afraid
of when, I hope
our lines might intertwine
and I won't know
where I want to end
as you pull
and push
and I don't know if its you or me

So I wonder,
if the creator teaches the created
or the creator can never end.

gently on the shoulder
 

i found you naked

in my bed sleeping

so quiet and i snuggled

up next to you

 

kissed you gently

on the shoulder

and told you

i love you

 

i woke up alone

 

a note on the pillow

saying thanks, you

need to buy some

toilet paper

 

i laughed and then

realized what you

used that towel for
--------------------------------------------------------
thirty some years ago
 

you ever remember

the time we kissed

under a bridge on

a rainy night thirty

some years ago

 

how all loneliness

left us

 

two souls determined

to take on the world

 

sharing cigarettes

at three in the

morning

 

two weeks later

 

you would be gone

to some other place

 

i never saw the

world the same

again
---------------------------------------------------------------------
in science class
 

earth shaking like never

before and some idiot

thinks it is the wrath

of god

 

and soon the sun will

give in to the moon

and some genius will

take it as a sign from

god to shoot up a school

or rob a few banks

 

it is pretty easy to see

who was actually paying

attention in science class

and who was busy

daydreaming about

a life they could

never ever achieve
---------------------------------------------------------
slowly come to terms
 

tears race down

my face as i slowly

come to terms with

my inevitable demise

 

i've squeezed more

talent out of apathy

than is probably

allowed

 

be thankful they

allowed you to

go this far

 

most of your types

end up in institutions

or cemeteries

 

i have a modest

urn in mind

 

ashes to be spread

in the pacific ocean

 

lord knows i'll

never make it

there while alive
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
a proverbial box
 

shooting stars have

no wishes attached

to them

 

fear is a disease

that can trap any

soul in a proverbial

box

 

sometimes i think

it would be better

to burn the fucker

down than figure

a way out

The Tragedy of Gaza 

In Gaza's tragedy, a tale unfolds, 
Of broken dreams and stories untold. 
Where children's laughter mingles with fear, 
And sorrow's shadow stays near. 
In destroyed streets, hearts ache and mourn, 
Yet from the ashes, resilience is born. 
In Gaza's situation, a request for peace, 
May hope's gentle whispers never cease.

Title: Microcloning Technique for Seedling Growth in Laboratories

Introduction:
The cultivation of plants through microcloning has gained significant importance due to its numerous advantages over traditional propagation methods. This technique involves the aseptic transfer of somatic cells from a mature plant onto agar plates under controlled conditions to obtain genetically identical clones. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using microcloning techniques to grow seedlings in laboratories.

Materials and Methods:
Five different species of seeds were chosen for the experiment, including lettuce, tomato, cucumber, bean, and pea. Each seed type was grown in soil pots in the greenhouse for two months before harvesting the mature seeds. After drying, the seeds were ground into fine powder using a grinder. A total of ten Petri dishes were prepared with sterile agar medium containing vitamins and nutrients required for cell proliferation. Agar plates were autoclaved to eliminate any contamination before use.

To initiate microcloning, somatic cells were isolated from the crushed seeds by centrifuging them at 8000 rpm for five minutes. Cell pellets were washed with sterile water and resuspended in a suitable buffer solution. Droplets of the suspension were placed onto the surface of the agar medium, followed by incubation at 27°C for 3-4 days. During this period, the cells multiplied rapidly, forming small colonies of cells called explants.

After three days, the explants were transferred to fresh Petri dishes containing appropriate media for further growth and development. The plates were maintained under controlled temperature and humidity conditions to ensure optimal growth. After seven days, the size and color of the explants were observed regularly. At fourteen days, the explants were transferred again to fresh Petri dishes, followed by incubation for another week. Finally, after twenty-one days, the explants were evaluated for morphological characteristics, such as leaf shape and size, stem thickness, and root length.

Results:
The results showed successful growth of seedlings from the microcloned explants. All five species grew successfully in the lab, but there were some differences in the rate of growth and overall health between the seedlings grown from microcloned explants compared to those grown in soil pots in the greenhouse. The explant-grown seedlings had smaller leaves and stems, while their roots were longer than those of soil-grown seedlings. However, the overall health of the plants was comparable, indicating that the microcloning technique was effective in producing healthy seedlings in the lab.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, our study demonstrated the feasibility of using microcloning techniques to produce seedlings in laboratories. While there may be some variations in the morphology and health of the plants, the microcloning technique offers several benefits over traditional propagation methods, including faster and more efficient production of genetically identical clones. Therefore, this technique can have significant implications in agricultural research, plant breeding, and conservation efforts. Further studies should be conducted to optimize the microcloning procedure and investigate its potential applications beyond plant propagation.
