Podcasts about Gugino

This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Silas Howard (@silash), award-winning trans filmmaker, to talk about why the 2024 horror-romcom Lisa Frankenstein Should've Been Gay. If you recall, we recently did an SBG episode on the 2022 series Darby and the Dead, which was directed by none other than Silas. So when we decided to do an episode on Lisa Frankenstein, we could not think of a more fitting guest for discussing this incredibly campy, queer-coded Halloweencore romcom. As you all know by now, monsters are super queer-coded. They are often depicted on the fringes of society, hiding in literal closets, and transforming their bodies in unique ways. If you identified with the misunderstood monster in horror movies growing up, you're probably some flavor of queer now. Lisa Frankenstein takes identifying with monsters a step further by making the transmasc-coded creature a love interest for the main character.  The story follows Kathryn Newton's character Lisa Swallows (the jokes basically write themselves) and her growing friendship with a reanimated corpse. She seems entirely unconcerned with his whole being dead thing and doesn't mind one bit that he is missing certain body parts. Things get increasingly unhinged as Lisa begins helping her new friend get the body parts he needs to feel affirmed and comfortable in his newly reanimated skin.  Everything in this film from the plot to the cast (Carla freaking Gugino is in this!) to the color palette to the over the top drag-influence on the costume design is too queer-coded to have been unintentional. Honestly even the morally ambiguous way that the characters approach killing is queer-coded. Even though the film doesn't go all the way there or expressly state anyone's sexuality, it's basically leaping off the screen the entire time.  We know one thing for sure, Lisa Frankenstein Should've Been Gay(er).  You can support Lez Hang Out while unlocking a bunch of awesome perks like access to our exclusive Discord, 23 and counting full-length bonus episodes (including our brand new episode on the dark comedy/psychological thriller Saltburn), weekly ad-free episodes, and more by joining us on Patreon at bit.ly/lezpatreon.

In this down-to-earth conversation with distiller and outdoorsman Tony Gugino of Eighth District Distilling Co., some of the topics we discuss include: How Tony's childhood exploring and fishing in Upstate New York inform the way he moves through the natural world and experiments with botanicals in his spirits. The attributes and attentional faculties that separate experienced foragers from everybody else, and why foraging is less about memorizing plant names than it is about developing spatial awareness and being in open dialogue with the world around you. Then we use Tony's recent victory as a contestant on Moonshiners: Master Distiller as a case study for how to build a foraged spirit from the ground up, analyzing not just the ingredients he used, but how he braided them into a cohesive, symphonic product. We also delve into foraging for bartenders, specifically: using seasonality and natural harvest cycles as a way to break out of the cloistered, “riff on a classic” approach that can place some bartenders in a creative rut. But foraging isn't just for distillers and bartenders--it's for everyone, so we conclude by offering some advice for home bartenders who have the option to start experimenting with foraging at a truly intimate scale. Along the way, we cover all the reasons why I was jealous of Tony when I first met him, how to make salt - yeah, you heard me…salt, the connection between Mulberries, Silk, and Connecticut's textile industry, and much, much more. Featured Cocktail: The Golden Ghost This episodes' featured cocktail is: The Golden Ghost. To make it, you'll need: ¾ oz Espadin Mezcal ¾ oz Blanco Tequila ¾ oz of clear Creme de cacao ¾ oz genepy (which is a green alpine liqueur from France) 1 dash of orange bitters Combine the ingredients in a mixing glass with ice, stir until well chilled and properly diluted, then strain into a Nick & Nora glass, garnish with a flaming star anise pod, and enjoy. The Golden Ghost is a Bijou riff minted by bartender Brian Evans of the bar Sunday in Brooklyn sometime around 2018. Instead of 1.5 oz of gin, you've got a split base of mezcal and tequila, which kinda tracks. Some of those mineral agave flavors can act like botanicals. The ¾ oz of creme de cacao nods to some of the deeper more confectionary notes that a good sweet vermouth will provide in the Bijou cocktail, with the genepy standing in for Chartreuse to tone down both the proof point and the pour cost.

Carla Gugino has been quietly amassing one of the most diverse bodies of work in Hollywood, and it's about time that's recognized. She's got a disaster movie in San Andreas, loads of family-friendly adventure films including Race to Witch Mountain, Night at the Museum, and the Spy Kids movies, and she's currently soaring in the horror space with projects like Gerald's Game and The Haunting of Hill House. We'd be here all day if I listed everything, but do give her lengthy filmography a quick scan. I'd be willing to bet that in almost all cases, consecutive projects fall in different genres.Just recently, Gugino got the opportunity to show off a good deal of her seemingly limitless range in a single project, The Fall of the House of Usher. The stellar new Netflix series from Mike Flanagan and the “Flanafamily” focuses on Roderick and Madeline Usher, the extremely wealthy and powerful brother-sister duo pushing Fortunato Pharmaceuticals up and up while leaving a trail of dark secrets in their wake. They think they are untouchable, but when their heirs start dying one by one, they're forced to revisit past choices and reckon with Gugino's character, Verna, or rather, “The Raven.”While Verna is often seen in human form, she's not. As Gugino has explained in the past, “She's not the devil. She's not even evil.” She added, “You could say she's the executor of fate or the executor of karma.” Just before their death, each Usher sees a manifestation of Verna, and each version is different. It's a one-of-a-kind challenge and Gugino absolutely soars while tackling it, so much so that she was just honored with a Critics Choice Nomination for Best Actress in a Limited Series.In honor of that accolade, the success of The Fall of the House of Usher, and everything Gugino's accomplished in film and television thus far, she joined me for a Collider Ladies Night conversation and offered up a closer look at how she did what many strive to do in Hollywood — avoid being “boxed in” and build a career with a wealth of unique creative opportunities.

Alexis Hejna, Dorian Price, Jason Teasley and Robert Winfree present their The Fall of the House of Usher 2023 miniseries Review! The Fall of the House of Usher is an American gothic horror drama television miniseries created by Mike Flanagan. All eight episodes were released on Netflix on October 12, 2023, each directed by either Flanagan or Michael Fimognari, the latter also acting as cinematographer for the entire series.Loosely based on various works by 19th century author Edgar Allan Poe (most prominently the eponymous 1840 short story), the series adapts otherwise-unrelated stories and characters by Poe into a single nonlinear narrative set from 1953 to 2023, and recounts both the rise to power of Roderick Usher, the powerful CEO of a corrupt pharmaceutical company and his sister Madeline, and the events leading to the deaths of all six of his children. It stars an ensemble cast led by Carla Gugino as a mysterious woman plaguing the Ushers, and Bruce Greenwood as an elderly Roderick.The first two episodes of The Fall of the House of Usher premiered at Fantastic Fest in September 2023 before the Netflix release the following month, being viewed over 13 million times in its first two weeks. It was met with positive reviews, with critics praising its production values, directing, and performances (in particular from Gugino, Greenwood and Mark Hamill), although they were divided on its narrative, notably in relation to the source materials.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsoFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulich

We can find parallels between the state of America and the nation of Judah in Isaiah chapter one. Pastor Gugino and I discuss the current cultural trends and the church's solutions.

Joe Gugino is the conservation and community partnerships manager at Costa sunglasses, and a darn good one! Without him, the 5 Rivers program, Kick Plastic, the Untangled collection and all the other awesome projects Costa funds would not be possible.

Gunpowder Milkshake is one of those films that has all the elements to be really good but fails to live up to the potential and the cast. It's one of the cardinal sins of a film with a great cast and an interesting concept. Seriously, with a cast of women like Karen Gillan, Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Angela Bassett and Michelle Yeoh, Gunpowder Milkshake didn't have to try hard to get our attention. The mistake comes from where the attention is put in this film and not leaning on why the audiences were interested in the first place.  You would think that this film would focus mostly on ‘The Librarians', the secret sisterhood of assassins. However this film oddly enough doesn't give us enough of them. This film should have been treated as an ensemble film but instead it focused mostly on Gillan's Sam and only gives us pieces of the lore behind The Librarians. It's a puzzling choice. Especially since when the film focuses on the women of the movie, it works very well. The chemistry between the cast is great. Chloe Coleman as the young Emily is also a great addition and works really well with everyone. It tis a little disappointing that we didn't get enough of Paul Giamatti being over-the-top Giamatti but what we do get works. One thing I can't help but feel is that this film would have been better in the hands of a female director and writer. Yes, men can and should be able to write and direct female-centered films well. But in many cases, there's a clear lack of understanding the assignment. Gunpowder Milkshake falls into that category. It feels like the veterans Basset, Yeoh, Headey and Gugino were able to salvage this film from being a complete disaster just based off of their own talent and not because of what they were given with the script. There's a lot of forced “Girl Power” moments that feel as if they were clearly written by a man (and they were) and don't do this cast justice. This film is entertaining enough and apparently there's a sequel being developed. I hope that the lessons learned from this first outing are taken to heart and I really hope they hand the reigns over to a woman to do it justice.    Like what you hear?

25 July 2021 - Jim Gugino - Sun PM by John W. Stancil

Carla Gugino catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about her new Netflix film, Gunpowder Milkshake. We hear all about making a visually fantastic film, incorporating famous authors into the story, and having Janis Joplin's version of Piece of My Heart soundtracking one of her fight scenes. The Haunting of Hill House actress goes on to tell us about the music that influenced her early years, which includes The Cure, Oingo Boingo, Liz Phair, and her recent favorites like Lana Del Rey and Coutney Barnett. Gugino also discusses the brilliance of David Bowie, the new Sparks documentary, and her friendship with Jenny Lewis, who she starred with in 1989's Troop Beverly Hills. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Some stylistic cool stuff, but the love-orphan of "John Wick" and "Kill Bills fails to hit. Gillan and the all-girl murder squad of Headey, Yeoh, Gugino, and Bassett do what they can. Unfortunately hampered with over long sequences, slo-mo, and one of the worst soundtracks in modern cinema. #gunpowdermilkshake #karengillan #netflix --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/toddlyden/message

Joe Gugino lives in Massachusetts and has a ton of experience chasing striper. This is a species of fish that I have very little experience with, so it was very interesting to learn about the fishing, the culture, the issues that they are facing, and much more. One thing that really intrigued me from this conversation was the issues that arise with dealing with multiple states regulating a migratory fish. In this case, 13 different states. We talk about this, fishing tactics, and even some deep sea fishing in this episode. Be sure to share this with someone who you think would be interested in learning more about striper.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Armed militants allied with Donald Trump have begun showing up at Black Lives Matter uprisings around the country. It’s not right to call them counter-protests, when their goal is to intimidate!

We give you the best information we have on the Himalayan border conflict between India and China. And lastly: Oxford University researchers report a breakthrough COVID-19 treatment. Better still, it involves a cheap steroid drug that’s widely available across the world. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Trumpist Militants Swarm BLM Peaceful protesters in at least ninety-eight cities across the US suffered chemical attack by police departments in recent weeks, according to the New York Times. Such indiscriminate use of tear gas has not been seen stateside since the 1960s and ’70s, when police used it to disperse civil rights and anti-war marches. But these crowd-control weapons are even more dangerous now, on account of the coronavirus. In Buffalo, New York, the seventy-five-year-old white man attacked by police last week remains in rehab. Martin Gugino’s lawyer told CNN the police left him with a skull fracture, and he can no longer walk. In a statement through his lawyer, Gugino said QUOTE there are plenty of other things to think about besides me ENDQUOTE. All the same, best wishes. Nearly sixty Buffalo cops resigned from their department emergency-response unit after the attack on Gugino. CNN also reported that officers in South Florida, Atlanta, and Minneapolis were resigning from crowd-control assignments – or from policework entirely. In Richmond, Virginia, the chief resigned after a police SUV drove through a crowd of protesters. Donald Trump met privately with the family of Ahmaud Arbery, the young man murdered by white suburbanites while jogging in Georgia. Trump also signed an executive order yesterday banning police chokeholds – unless the officer fears for his life. As critics noted, Trump’s order has loopholes big enough to drive an armored vehicle through. Reactionary forces appear to be escalating their violence ahead of Trump’s rally in Oklahoma on Saturday. Some press are calling these counter-protests, but it’s more accurate to say they are shows of force by pro-Trump militants -- who are, to varying degrees, in league with police. In Missoula, Montana, hundreds of people rallied to protest the recent appearance of such militants at pro-BLM events. In the small town of Bethel, Ohio, seven hundred right-wing militants – some armed with guns or baseball bats, and belonging to motorcycle gangs -- showed up to intimidate a group of eighty BLM demonstrators. Police joined a Back the Blue event in South Philadelphia to defend a Columbus statue, and to support a police captain who accused journalists of inciting a riot. In Seattle, known members of violent rightwing groups showed up to make trouble at the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. In Troy, New York, several men were arrested after bringing body armor and assault rifles to a BLM event. Police said they also carried a tactical manual from the rightwing New England Militia. And in Albuquerque, New Mexico, rightwing militia claimed they had no knowledge of a man who was arrested after firing shots into a crowd of protesters. The shooter, Steven Ray Baca, sought to protect a statue of a sixteenth-century conquistador who slaughtered indigenous people. Police radio reportedly described the rightwingers as QUOTE armed friendlies ENDQUOTE. Despite such threats, uprisings continue around the globe. Our best count has more than thirty-five hundred protests since May 25, most of them in the US. India-China Conflict Kills 20 Border skirmishes between India and China have escalated, and this is very bad news for the whole world. Both countries have nuclear weapons. At least twenty Indian Army soldiers died in fighting along the contested border with China in the Himalayas on Monday. They were the first soldiers to die along that border in forty-five years. Indian sources claimed the Chinese also suffered casualties, but China did not confirm this. China may have captured dozens of Indian soldiers, according to the New York Times. Good information from the remote border region is hard to come by. Neither side claims shots were fired. Reports say the opposing soldiers went after one another with rocks, clubs, and fists. Some of the clubs may have been studded with nails or wrapped with barbed wire. That this could take place in 2020 shows you how much sense it makes for any country to maintain nuclear weapons. The whole thing may have begun after an Indian officer fell into a gorge, leading to a call for reinforcements, according to the Guardian. This is not the first recent skirmish in the border area, as listeners know, but it is the most deadly. China sees an ulterior motive in India’s expansion of road infrastructure. And the suspicion goes both ways. China has also fortified its position. Everybody, keep it cool. Please? Breakthrough Coronavirus Treatment Reported Scientists reported a major breakthrough in coronavirus treatment. For the first time, a randomized clinical trial showed that a cheap, commonly available drug can increase the chance of survival in COVID-19 patients. The drug, dexamethasone (DEXUH-METHO- ZONE), is used to treat the inflammation that goes with many conditions, including arthritis and asthma. The clinical trial was carried out by researchers at Oxford University. The results have not been peer reviewed. But doctors and scientists expressed strong optimism about what their British counterparts reported. Per the BBC, the trial found patients on ventilators who received the steroid drug were one-third less likely to die. And the drug may also prevent some of the organ damage caused by people’s own immune systems that can happen with COVID-19. The lead researcher, Martin Landray, said the benefits are clear, and the drug is globally available. Essentially, he said, it costs thirty-five pounds -- or forty-four dollars -- to save a life. But what will the insurance companies say? A breakthrough couldn’t come at a better time: yesterday Florida, Texas and Arizona all reported record one-day increases in coronavirus cases. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: Pacific Gas and Electric pleaded guilty to eighty-four counts of manslaughter for its role in the 2018 Camp Fire. That fire claimed as many lives as there were manslaughter charges – plus one death, ruled a suicide. Yesterday the California utility’s CEO, Bill Johnson, stood in Butte County court and answered guilty to every criminal charge. That certainly hurt more than the modest three-point-five million dollar fine agreed to in the plea deal with prosecutors. A new book by Donald Trump’s only known niece describes the family as QUOTE a nightmare of traumas, destructive relationships, and a tragic combination of neglect and abuse ENDQUOTE. The author, Mary L. Trump, is a trained clinical psychologist. Her book is titled Too Much and Never Enough. The publisher, Simon and Schuster, is also putting out former Trump adviser John Bolton’s book, which the White House is attempting to suppress. The German public broadcaster reported yesterday that for three decades before reunification, officials in West Berlin knowingly placed homeless children with foster parents who were pedophiles. Researchers at Hildesheim University interviewed victims and pored over records to make the shocking determination. They found the so-called experiment was effectively sanctioned at the highest levels, and included prominent academics. An internal Central Intelligence Agency report -- released yesterday to the public in redacted form -- found the largest data theft in Agency history took place because the people involved were too focused on building new weapons. The data theft took place in 2016 and was revealed in 2017 by Wikileaks, in the release the website called Vault Seven. No doubt everyone at the CIA has learned a lot of valuable lessons since then.

My second day of ranting about Martin Gugino & Trump calling him an Antifa member. At best, Martin Gugino belongs to the AARP and Medicare Gang.

Today on the Show: Martin Gugino's Abuse by Buffalo cops and and his history as a long time Witness against torture. Also, on a brand new edition of the Flashpoints Election Crimes Buletin with Greg Palast, we examine last night's Georgia election heist. And we'll have an important update on an upsurge of corvid19 in a number of states. The post Background on Martin Gugino, The 75 Year Old Protester Attacked By Buffalo PD appeared first on KPFA.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: Georgia’s primary election devolved into an absolute mess on Tuesday, as voters and poll workers reported major problems with new voting machines and extremely long lines in a state that has struggled with overt voter suppression by the ruling Republican party for years. Meanwhile, Donald Trump falsely accused the 75-year-old protester who was brutally injured by Buffalo, New York police of being a quote “Antifa provocateur,” further pushing the baseless conspiracy that blames widespread protests on far-left radicals. And lastly, protesters in Seattle establish a quote “autonomous zone” on the city’s Capitol Hill, created when police abandoned their embattled East Precinct after days of demonstrations outlasted the cop’s brutal response. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Georgia Primary Mess It was election day in Georgia on Tuesday, and across the state, people struggled to vote. Georgia has a particularly troublesome history with voter suppression, and this election cycle was no different. Nikema Williams, the chairwoman of the Democratic Party of Georgia, told the New York Times that she got 84 text messages complaining of voting problems just 10 minutes after the polls opened at 7 a.m. The main problem this time around appears to be the voting machines, which appear to have failed on a widespread scale, as well as new delays caused by sanitizing the machines and social distancing, which led some in-person voters to wait six to seven hours. If you remember, this is the same state where Bryan Kemp won the race for Governor after leading widespread voter roll purges during his time as Georgia Secretary of State. Kemp’s own Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, ostensibly mailed everyone in the state a vote-by-mail ballot, but some people said they didn’t get them, and were forced to vote in person. Raffensperge blamed the long lines and voting delays on poll workers not knowing how to operate the new machines. Shouldn’t it be his job to, you know, teach them? The chaos is bad for Georgia’s primaries, which will set the ballot for a lot of consequential state house and national offices in November, but it’s even worse as an omen for how that election will go. Georgia is expected to be a battleground state between Trump and Biden in November, and it’s clear that the Republicans are already testing out the various suppression measures they’ll use to keep it from being a fair fight. Case in point: many of the delays and issues were worst in the two counties that comprise metro Atlanta, which lean Democratic. And it wasn’t just Georgia: voters in South Carolina’s primary yesterday also reported long lines at polling stations. This is definitely going to be a nationwide trend in November, and it’s important that we recognize what it looks like before it happens. Trump Claims Elderly Pacifist is Antifa Donald Trump sank to, well, not his lowest point of the current news cycle, but certainly a new depth on Monday, when he said that the 75-year-old man critically injured by Buffalo police during a protest was a quote “Antifa Provocteur.” endquote. In reality, Martin Gugino is a long-time peace activist, who marched in the Buffalo Black Lives Matter protests and demonstrated for many other causes over the years. On Thursday night last week, Buffalo police shoved him to the ground so violently that he cracked his head on the concrete. He’s still in the hospital. That didn’t stop Trump from tweeting on Tuesday that Gugino was connected to a conspiracy theory promoted by the president’s new favorite source, One America News Network, that alleged Antifa were trying to knock out police radios with scanner devices. This obviously makes no sense whatsoever: Neighbors, friends, and fellow activists described Gugino as an inquisitive, gentle and friendly person who loved to attend speaking events at the local radical bookstore and was once asked to critique student presentations for an environmental studies class at the University at Buffalo. Gugino is still in a delicate state in the hospital, as friends say he’s still in immense pain whenever he sees bright light or moves his head. He may not consider himself antifa, but it’s pretty clear that he’s not on the same side as the fascists that nearly killed him. Seattle Protesters Set Up Autonomous Zone Protesters in Seattle have won a victory of sorts, setting up a semi-autonomous zone outside of police control in the vicinity of the Seattle Police Department’s East Precinct. The cops abandoned the precinct on Monday, evacuating most of their supplies and reportedly moving in a mobile shredder unit to destroy documents. The Seattle Police has been particularly brutal with protesters, waging battle with rubber bullets, flash bang grenades, pepper balls and massive amounts of tear gas night after night, despite elected officials’ promises to push them to de-escalate. But protesters have weathered it all, creating their own riot shields and steadfastly returning to the area around the precinct night after night to protest, according to Capitol Hill Seattle. Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan says that the police’s retreat from the East Precinct was a deliberate attempt to de-escalate the strategy, and protesters have filled the void of violence by creating a strange, peaceful autonomous zone in the blocks surrounding it. On Tuesday afternoon, the Capitol Hill Seattle blog reported that the protesters have used abandoned police barricades to block off sections of the area to traffic, creating a twisting maze and setting up tents to keep themselves dry when it rains. Activists also reportedly planned to stay the night on Tuesday night. The conservative rumor mill, however, is convinced that antifa means to burn down the precinct, whereas leftist protesters worry that right wing agitators or the cops themselves are going to try something to incite more blame. Either way, it’s a fascinating development to how the protests are remaking urban spaces and challenging the police’s role and presence in our cities. Keep an eye on this story today to see how the autonomous zone shakes out. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: The boutique fitness world is in turmoil as CrossFit’s CEO Greg Glassman stepped down on Tuesday after telling gym owners that quote “we’re not mourning for George Floyd.” His comments provoked many gyms, which pay money to the global CrossFit brand to use its trademarks, to separate themselves from the system. Vincent D’Andraia, the NYPD officer who was captured on video violently shoving a young woman to the ground, has been arrested and charged with assault. New York prosecutors are considering bringing misconduct or criminal charges against as many as 40 other NYPD officers in connection to their behavior at the protests. The U.S. may be slowly reopening, but around the world the coronavirus is on the rise, particularly in Latin America, where many countries are being pushed to the brink by rising cases. On Sunday, new cases reached a global high at 136,000, mostly in that region and parts of South Asia. And finally, remember Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, the so-called Democrat running against AOC in the primary for her seat in Congress? You know, the one who criticized AOC for living in a quote “luxury apartment” in DC? Turns out, she has a $40 million investment portfolio. AOC was a bartender until 2018, so it seems like Caruso-Cabrera probably shouldn’t try to pull the working-class card on here there. That’s it for the Majority Report’s AM Quickie today.

The Human Power Generation in Fitness Facilities research project will create a human power generation center at the UC Berkeley Recreational Sports Facilities to develop new technologies and methods for energy conservation and power generation.TranscriptSpeaker 1: Spectrum's next Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Welcome to spectrum the science and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 [00:00:30] minute program bringing you interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists as well as a calendar of local events and news. Speaker 3: Good afternoon. My name is Brad swift and I'm the host of today's show. Our interview is with [inaudible], a fifth year mechanical engineering and Applied Mathematics major at UC Berkeley, who along with Kimberly Lau, launched the human power gym project. After conducting a feasibility study, they are attempting to design and prototype [00:01:00] an elliptical exercise machine for the UC Berkeley recreational sports facility that will generate electricity. Rather than consume it, the generated electricity will be put back into the electrical grid. The project began in the summer of 2009 Maha g talks about her enthusiasm for the project and the challenges to make it a reality. Maha and I are joined by Rick [inaudible] for the interview. This interview is prerecorded and edited. [00:01:30] Maha, could you please explain the project you're working on currently? Speaker 4: Okay, so I'm working on a project titled The Human Pirate Gym Project. It's part of the Berkeley Energy and Sustainability Laboratory in the mechanical engineering department. And the goal of our project is to harness human power from exercise machines currently in the recreational sports facility or the RSF at UC Berkeley. And we're hoping to retrofit and 28 elliptical machines to harness human power and send it back to the electric grid and also work an energy education [00:02:00] campaign to improve energy literacy among the members of the RSF and people who frequent the facility to give them a better idea of sustainability and energy. Speaker 3: How did that idea bubble up for you and the group you're working on this with? Speaker 4: So I'm working on this with a graduate student named Kimberly Lough in the Mechanical Engineering Department under professor at Gugino. We came across it separately. She came across the idea when she's working out in the RSF, seeing all these people burning calories and you know, exercising so much, they must be expending a lot of energy and there must [00:02:30] be a way to harness that. And then I came across the idea because I was reading up about, um, there's a project harnessing children's power to pump water up out of the wells. And in African villages they create like a, a carousel where kids can play on and when they spin around the carousel they're actually pumping water up into a tank. And so I thought, well if kids run around and harness all this energy, why can't we do something like this and the gyms across the u s Speaker 3: and much power do you Speaker 5: expect [00:03:00] to be able to generate from all this? Speaker 4: So unfortunately it's not a lot of power. Um, the RSF uses on the order of 1.5 million kilowatt hours a year and energy consumption and by other things like air conditioning or where's all that go? So actually it's not air conditioning cause we live in a bay area. We don't actually have air conditioning and the RSF cause it stays relatively cool. It's definitely for heating and air circulation and ventilation. And then a good chunk of it goes to lights and actually [00:03:30] powering treadmills, believe it or not. So if we haven't retrofitted 28 elliptical machines, it would harness about 10,000 kilowatt hours a year, which is enough to power a small house but only 1% of what the RSF needs to run its daily use. The treadmill is actually account for about 12% of the energy use at the RSF and not a lot of people know that. So part of our project, we're trying to encourage people to use elliptical machines or other self powered machines that use less power that but give comparable workouts [00:04:00] according to fitness trainers and the hopes that maybe they'll switch over to more ellipticals and the treadmills can be replaced in the RSF cause they actually acquire. I think running on a treadmill for about an hour requires as much energy as doing a load of laundry, washing and drying. Speaker 5: How did the project come together in terms of getting an off the ground funding, all those things. Speaker 4: So two years ago I am part of the UC leads program, which is, I forgot what it stands for, but it's some type of scholarship program at Berkeley that encourages summer research. [00:04:30] So I was funded by them to do a summer research project two years ago and I contacted fresher ag Gino with this idea saying, hey, I'm funded, can I work in your lab with Kimberley? She's really awesome. Wants to work in this project. So the UC leads program funded me for that summer and they've also funded me to continue researching in the fall and of that year, fall 2009 so we researched the feasibility of this and tried to come up with some energy estimates on how much energy we could harness, how much that would cost, what sort of things would need to be in place [00:05:00] to continue actually with the retrofits. And we actually published a paper in a conference and a spring of 2010 with the American Society of mechanical engineers. And after that we started applying for funds through the Green Initiative Fund, the Sigmas I m research honors society and the Chancellors Green, the chancellor's Green Fund cacs, I believe it's called the Chancellor's Advisory Committee for sustainability. And so with all those three funding resources, we have about a little over $17,000 [00:05:30] currently to actually go ahead and build these prototypes and get going with the retrofits at the gym. Speaker 4: Can you talk about your, a conference paper anymore. So what does it, what was it about? So our conference paper was published in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Conference on Energy Sustainability in May of 2010 and it just talked about our feasibility study on the RSF detailing how much power could be harnessed from the RSF, what [00:06:00] percentage of power consumption that accounted for. And it also detailed sort of how long it would take to payback such a system. And it also looked at the light life cycle assessment of the system and life cycle assessment basically means you take into account all the energy required to make the components that you'll be adding to the system and then take a look at how long it would take to payback the co two emissions related to that energy that was put in. So I think we estimated that unfortunately it's relates [00:06:30] to at savings of only a thousand dollars a year in energy consumption because energy is so cheap out here. But if we made CO2 emissions, the metric instead of dollars, the system would pay itself off in like two to three years of CO2 savings. If we assume that the energy generated at the RSF no longer needs to be generated by say PGNE and then taking into account how much CO2 is required for those few components that we have to add to each elliptical. So that was a much less bleak outlook. Speaker 5: [00:07:00] Did you draw on previous attempts to do the same thing? Speaker 4: So we redid a lot of research and a couple other gyms across the nation have retrofitted elliptical machines specifically to harness human power. And we talked to them and we talked to, there's a company called rewrap that actually does commercial retrofits and they approached the RSF also saying that they could do the retrofits before I came onto the project and we talked to those jams and I actually had a chance to visit one of them in [inaudible] at Oregon state. And [00:07:30] for some reason they didn't seem to be completely happy with the setup. For one reason or another, they didn't think it was producing as much energy as they thought. And so based on those interviews I had done with gyms across the nation, we decided to try and come up with our own retrofit. Also, cal poly has done a retrofit of their gym facility and are harnessing power from ellipticals in their own method. Speaker 4: And the gym users there are really, really excited about it and really enjoy it a lot more than people at Oregon State for instance. So that's kind of why we're trying to go [00:08:00] ahead with doing it ourselves. Um, based on interviews and research from other gyms, definitely. And are only the ellipticals being used to generate power. Currently they're the easiest to tap into because they have an onboard generator that will convert your human power movement into resistance, electrical resistance that you feel when you're working out. So it's really easy to tap into them, just remove the resistance mechanism and instead put in something like an inverter to convert the DC power [00:08:30] you're generating to AC power. That can be used and sent back to the grid. Speaker 5: When the cal poly success, was there any attempt to collaborate with them? Speaker 4: We did approach them and ask them for collaboration, but I believe they are, have, they have some sort of patents on their devices now and it's very proprietary and so they're not, they're various hesitant to work with us and so if we create our own solution we're hoping to be much more open about it and sort of spread it around to any universities who want to do this on their own. Jim, [00:09:00] because we've had such a hard time contacting other people for help that we want to make sure it's easier for others. Speaker 6: You are listening to spectrum on the KALX Berkeley, we are talking with Mar Haji, but the human power gym project of which she is a founding member. Speaker 5: What's been the most challenging aspect [00:09:30] of the project? Speaker 4: I think definitely recruiting people for the project because we've seen so many people come and go last year in our teams that has been really hard to get anything done. Um, we really need people who are skilled in electronics and mechanical engineering and unfortunately I don't have a very big electronics background myself and since I'm graduating in December, I have a lot of requirements that I need to meet and I can't give my all to the project as I could two years ago. So it's been really hard to find people who are as motivated or as determined about the [00:10:00] project to go ahead and finish it up and follow it through and hand it off and I, so that's been a big, big challenge I think. Speaker 5: Is that something that you want to do? Do you want to recruit people what he was attempting to do in that vein? Speaker 4: Yeah, we definitely want to recruit people because it's going to take a lot of work and a lot of minds to prototype one elliptical and then expand it to the entire gym. And like I said, since I'm graduating in December, I definitely want to hand off the project to other people to sort of conduct follow up [00:10:30] research. Like okay, if we put these ellipticals and generate power, do people actually learn from this? Do the energy literacy rates go up, do treadmills get useless. There's a whole host of followup research that could be done and hasn't been done yet and definitely has a potential of being published and presented around the nation I think. Speaker 5: So are you mostly interested in recruiting other engineers and how would they sign up? Speaker 4: So I'm interested in [inaudible] definitely recruiting um, upperclassmen engineers but also [00:11:00] people who have experience in signage and education. Cause I know, I don't know how best to reach people or get the knowledge disseminated about all the energy sustainability going on in the RSF. And that would definitely be helpful. And if anyone's interested they can just email RSF energy@gmail.com we'd be happy to have them on board. Speaker 5: All right. Any of your current efforts documented anywhere of Wiki or mainly list or anything like that? Speaker 4: So we have a webpage, hpg.berkeley.edu [00:11:30] needs to be updated for the past couple months. But generally a lot of our documents are there and we also have a [inaudible] website for all the members of the project. And that's how we communicate for papers that need to be read or budgets they need to be updated and that kind of thing. Speaker 5: Do you know if, uh, there are sort of commercial efforts in this too, like commercial? Uh, Speaker 4: so besides outside, outside universities, I guess so universities are really unique in that their gym [00:12:00] facilities are open for so many hours and frequent, so many users. So unfortunately Jim is like 24 hour fitness even though they're open 24 hours, don't see as much throughput of people or patrons that, um, university of do. So there hasn't been a huge push and they're at that direction. I believe there's a handful of them that use at least the re-roof technology. And there's a couple of gyms that are like, I think there's one gym in Hong Kong that's created some type of something called like a human dynamo where four people will bike on [00:12:30] the sort of combined system and move their hands at the same time and that will generate a whole lot of power for the gym. But aside from that, then not much that I know, it seems like a natural for a gym setting is to make it competitive somehow. I know both Oregon State and University of Oregon did retrofits and they sort of had a competition like who can create the most energy. Um, and we hope when we actually retrofit the gym to involve some sort of LCD panel that reads out which elliptical is [00:13:00] generating the most energy, you know, compare it across the gym and everyone can see, oh no like I gotta be 12 like my friends over there or something. Yeah. Speaker 4: What's been the most unexpected thing that's happened in the project? So finding an elliptical machine was really hard. We originally thought that it was this elliptical machine floating around and so to haul on the sixth floor that no one really had, no one really knew who it belonged to. So we thought we'd use that for our project. We had [00:13:30] took a while to track down who the professor was who had it laying around and he gladly donated it to our project. And then when we took it apart, we found out that its internal mechanism was completely different than those used at the gym. It was using less electrical resistance like modern, most ellipticals use in was using more mechanical resistance, um, something much more like a recumbent bicycle. So we were like, well if we prototype on this system it's really not going to be compatible with anything in the gym. Speaker 4: So then we had to contact the gym and try [00:14:00] and track down elliptical that way. And luckily they were after a couple of weeks or months, like everything fell together when we finally got it transported. And transporting those big things is also huge hassle from the RSF all the way down to attra very hall on North side on the social outreach part of it, the behavioral aspect of the project. What's been the challenge there to get that up and running? Um, so we conducted a survey of all the members of [00:14:30] the RSF and I believe something like five or 600 responded, which was great. And they, we post questions such as how much energy do you think x, Y and z machines use? Um, to get an idea of how energy literate people are about the machines at the RSF. And so we have a good base of where we think people could have their education, energy education improved. It's just a matter of figuring out the best way to actually do that. So as a mechanical engineering major, unfortunately I haven't [00:15:00] had to deal very much with energy education or engineering education and we could definitely use people on our project who know perhaps more like the psychology of a situation. Like definitely some sort of analysis on where people move in the RSF and where's the best place to place these things and how can we make them as interactive as possible to increase awareness, stuff like that. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 6: you are listening [00:15:30] to spectrum on k a l x Berkeley. We are talking with Maharaji but the human powered gym project of which he is a founding member. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 5: are there any key things that you're learning in doing this that you might not have learned if you hadn't been involved in this project? Speaker 4: Definitely like in Berkeley engineering for the first three, three and a half years [00:16:00] of your educational career. It's very theoretical and this project has given me the advantage of doing something on the side that's much more hands on and applications of my learning at Berkeley. So that's been really awesome. And then working with other people on a project and just knowing how to work in a team is not something that people teach you in class either until you get to the higher level project-based classes and engineering. So that's been really great. And uh, working and collaborating with people, not only in the mechanical engineering department but the directors of the RSF to [00:16:30] TGF and other funding agencies and Co working together to get all that going is like intense. I can only imagine what professors have to go through to get grants written and proposals and then get the actually get that money and use it for their projects. That's been kind of like a mini Speaker 5: many experience with that. How much time do you estimate you spent working on a project? Speaker 4: Well, I've been working on it since summer of 2009 and I work anywhere [00:17:00] from five to 10 hours a week on it. I think pretty consistently with the exception of last summer and this summer because I've been away doing other internships and research projects. But every time I come back to Berkeley it's like, all right, got to get on. I gotta get going again. Speaker 5: And have your summer internships where you haven't been working on the Human Powergen bin and sort of related fields? Speaker 4: Yeah. Last summer I got the chance to go to Oregon State University and do, uh, an inner and study on the interaction [00:17:30] between wave energy devices in the environment, studying what types of organisms might colonize the environment. Cause I hadn't really, really been looked at. And then this summer I got the chance to go to MIT and study, um, fluid dynamics in the ocean engineering lab there. So starting to get a feel for the field and both on the west and the east coast and getting ideas of what professors doing what. So that's been really great. Yeah. Speaker 5: So for this project, you're probably not going to get completed by the time you graduate and if you're able to hand it off, [00:18:00] would you be involved in trying to get additional funding to make that transition happen? Speaker 4: I think at the moment we haven't used much of our funding because we've had a lot of setbacks and getting ellipticals and getting team members. So depending on the stance of the project in December, we would definitely, depending on if we've used a lot of our funds for prototyping or we're still waiting to get people on board to start prototyping, that would probably influence whether or not we apply for more funding. But I mean [00:18:30] more money's always great cause right now the funding we have budgeted, we'll only retrofit 14 of the 28 ellipticals. So if we are to consider doing all 28 we definitely need to look for more funding. I'm just sort of hesitant to do it right now because we don't actually have anything prototyped at the moment and no real product to show before we apply for more funding. Speaker 5: What is it that you like about engineering? What drew you to engineering? Speaker 4: So actually one thought I wanted to be a film major for a really long time [00:19:00] and then I went to a summer program just for like fun. I was like, okay, I'll get out of the house for a month, uh, in mechanical engineering. And they had us like take apart part printer, take apart a blender and like build these little like out of the box robots. You're just like screw a few things in the other and put a battery. And I think just the whole idea of like building things and taking things apart sort of amazed me. And I was always like really good at puzzles and math and so it was like, oh this is like way more fun than making movies. [00:19:30] So that's sort of what drawn me to it. Speaker 5: Has Your work on this project given you a better sense of how what you want to do going forward? Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely. It has encouraged me to look more into alternative forms of energy. That's definitely what I want to do in the future. Unfortunately, it's made me disheartened about human power cause going into the project I thought, Oh yeah, we can just retrofit all the ellipticals and then power the entire gym. We use so much power on a daily basis that that's not [00:20:00] feasible so definitely opens your eyes onto how much power we consume every day and I think this project has been a great stepping stone into the world of alternative energy and I hope to study something like ocean energy and ocean energy extraction for graduate studies in school.

Genetically engineered canola growing outside of established cultivation [00:25:30] regions across North Dakota. A study published by the online journal plus one reports the genetically engineered canola endowed with herbicide resistance have been found growing outside of established cultivation regions along road sides across North Dakota. These escaped plants were found statewide and account for 45% of the total roadside plants sampled. Furthermore, populations were found to persist [00:26:00] from year to year and reached thousands of individuals. The authors found that the escaped plants could hybridize with each other to create novel combinations of transgenic traits, and the authors argue that their result more than 10 years after the initial release of genetically engineered canola raises questions of whether adequate oversight and monitoring protocols are in place in the u s to track the environmental impact of biotech products. Berkeley's [00:26:30] own cell Perlmutter is sharing the Nobel Prize in physics with Adam G. Reese of the John Hopkins University and Brian Schmidt of Australian national universities, Mt. Strom Lowe and siding spring observatories pro mudder led the Supernova Speaker 7: cosmology project that in 1998 became one of the two scientific efforts that are credited with discovering the accelerating expansion of the universe and Schmidt led the competing supernova search team. Pearl mudder is UC Berkeley's 22nd Nobel Medal [00:27:00] winner and the ninth winner of the Physics Prize. The discovery of the accelerating expansion has formed theories of the distant future of an ever expanding universe and has alleged the speculation of dark energy that theoretically makes up almost three quarters of the matter and energy of the universe, but it has proven elusive to observe. Perlmutter has recently been working with NASA and the u s department of Energy to build and launch the first space-based observatory designed specifically to understand the nature of dark energy.

The Human Power Generation in Fitness Facilities research project will create a human power generation center at the UC Berkeley Recreational Sports Facilities to develop new technologies and methods for energy conservation and power generation.TranscriptSpeaker 1: Spectrum's next Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 1: Welcome to spectrum the science and technology show on k a l x Berkeley, a biweekly 30 [00:00:30] minute program bringing you interviews featuring bay area scientists and technologists as well as a calendar of local events and news. Speaker 3: Good afternoon. My name is Brad swift and I'm the host of today's show. Our interview is with [inaudible], a fifth year mechanical engineering and Applied Mathematics major at UC Berkeley, who along with Kimberly Lau, launched the human power gym project. After conducting a feasibility study, they are attempting to design and prototype [00:01:00] an elliptical exercise machine for the UC Berkeley recreational sports facility that will generate electricity. Rather than consume it, the generated electricity will be put back into the electrical grid. The project began in the summer of 2009 Maha g talks about her enthusiasm for the project and the challenges to make it a reality. Maha and I are joined by Rick [inaudible] for the interview. This interview is prerecorded and edited. [00:01:30] Maha, could you please explain the project you're working on currently? Speaker 4: Okay, so I'm working on a project titled The Human Pirate Gym Project. It's part of the Berkeley Energy and Sustainability Laboratory in the mechanical engineering department. And the goal of our project is to harness human power from exercise machines currently in the recreational sports facility or the RSF at UC Berkeley. And we're hoping to retrofit and 28 elliptical machines to harness human power and send it back to the electric grid and also work an energy education [00:02:00] campaign to improve energy literacy among the members of the RSF and people who frequent the facility to give them a better idea of sustainability and energy. Speaker 3: How did that idea bubble up for you and the group you're working on this with? Speaker 4: So I'm working on this with a graduate student named Kimberly Lough in the Mechanical Engineering Department under professor at Gugino. We came across it separately. She came across the idea when she's working out in the RSF, seeing all these people burning calories and you know, exercising so much, they must be expending a lot of energy and there must [00:02:30] be a way to harness that. And then I came across the idea because I was reading up about, um, there's a project harnessing children's power to pump water up out of the wells. And in African villages they create like a, a carousel where kids can play on and when they spin around the carousel they're actually pumping water up into a tank. And so I thought, well if kids run around and harness all this energy, why can't we do something like this and the gyms across the u s Speaker 3: and much power do you Speaker 5: expect [00:03:00] to be able to generate from all this? Speaker 4: So unfortunately it's not a lot of power. Um, the RSF uses on the order of 1.5 million kilowatt hours a year and energy consumption and by other things like air conditioning or where's all that go? So actually it's not air conditioning cause we live in a bay area. We don't actually have air conditioning and the RSF cause it stays relatively cool. It's definitely for heating and air circulation and ventilation. And then a good chunk of it goes to lights and actually [00:03:30] powering treadmills, believe it or not. So if we haven't retrofitted 28 elliptical machines, it would harness about 10,000 kilowatt hours a year, which is enough to power a small house but only 1% of what the RSF needs to run its daily use. The treadmill is actually account for about 12% of the energy use at the RSF and not a lot of people know that. So part of our project, we're trying to encourage people to use elliptical machines or other self powered machines that use less power that but give comparable workouts [00:04:00] according to fitness trainers and the hopes that maybe they'll switch over to more ellipticals and the treadmills can be replaced in the RSF cause they actually acquire. I think running on a treadmill for about an hour requires as much energy as doing a load of laundry, washing and drying. Speaker 5: How did the project come together in terms of getting an off the ground funding, all those things. Speaker 4: So two years ago I am part of the UC leads program, which is, I forgot what it stands for, but it's some type of scholarship program at Berkeley that encourages summer research. [00:04:30] So I was funded by them to do a summer research project two years ago and I contacted fresher ag Gino with this idea saying, hey, I'm funded, can I work in your lab with Kimberley? She's really awesome. Wants to work in this project. So the UC leads program funded me for that summer and they've also funded me to continue researching in the fall and of that year, fall 2009 so we researched the feasibility of this and tried to come up with some energy estimates on how much energy we could harness, how much that would cost, what sort of things would need to be in place [00:05:00] to continue actually with the retrofits. And we actually published a paper in a conference and a spring of 2010 with the American Society of mechanical engineers. And after that we started applying for funds through the Green Initiative Fund, the Sigmas I m research honors society and the Chancellors Green, the chancellor's Green Fund cacs, I believe it's called the Chancellor's Advisory Committee for sustainability. And so with all those three funding resources, we have about a little over $17,000 [00:05:30] currently to actually go ahead and build these prototypes and get going with the retrofits at the gym. Speaker 4: Can you talk about your, a conference paper anymore. So what does it, what was it about? So our conference paper was published in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Conference on Energy Sustainability in May of 2010 and it just talked about our feasibility study on the RSF detailing how much power could be harnessed from the RSF, what [00:06:00] percentage of power consumption that accounted for. And it also detailed sort of how long it would take to payback such a system. And it also looked at the light life cycle assessment of the system and life cycle assessment basically means you take into account all the energy required to make the components that you'll be adding to the system and then take a look at how long it would take to payback the co two emissions related to that energy that was put in. So I think we estimated that unfortunately it's relates [00:06:30] to at savings of only a thousand dollars a year in energy consumption because energy is so cheap out here. But if we made CO2 emissions, the metric instead of dollars, the system would pay itself off in like two to three years of CO2 savings. If we assume that the energy generated at the RSF no longer needs to be generated by say PGNE and then taking into account how much CO2 is required for those few components that we have to add to each elliptical. So that was a much less bleak outlook. Speaker 5: [00:07:00] Did you draw on previous attempts to do the same thing? Speaker 4: So we redid a lot of research and a couple other gyms across the nation have retrofitted elliptical machines specifically to harness human power. And we talked to them and we talked to, there's a company called rewrap that actually does commercial retrofits and they approached the RSF also saying that they could do the retrofits before I came onto the project and we talked to those jams and I actually had a chance to visit one of them in [inaudible] at Oregon state. And [00:07:30] for some reason they didn't seem to be completely happy with the setup. For one reason or another, they didn't think it was producing as much energy as they thought. And so based on those interviews I had done with gyms across the nation, we decided to try and come up with our own retrofit. Also, cal poly has done a retrofit of their gym facility and are harnessing power from ellipticals in their own method. Speaker 4: And the gym users there are really, really excited about it and really enjoy it a lot more than people at Oregon State for instance. So that's kind of why we're trying to go [00:08:00] ahead with doing it ourselves. Um, based on interviews and research from other gyms, definitely. And are only the ellipticals being used to generate power. Currently they're the easiest to tap into because they have an onboard generator that will convert your human power movement into resistance, electrical resistance that you feel when you're working out. So it's really easy to tap into them, just remove the resistance mechanism and instead put in something like an inverter to convert the DC power [00:08:30] you're generating to AC power. That can be used and sent back to the grid. Speaker 5: When the cal poly success, was there any attempt to collaborate with them? Speaker 4: We did approach them and ask them for collaboration, but I believe they are, have, they have some sort of patents on their devices now and it's very proprietary and so they're not, they're various hesitant to work with us and so if we create our own solution we're hoping to be much more open about it and sort of spread it around to any universities who want to do this on their own. Jim, [00:09:00] because we've had such a hard time contacting other people for help that we want to make sure it's easier for others. Speaker 6: You are listening to spectrum on the KALX Berkeley, we are talking with Mar Haji, but the human power gym project of which she is a founding member. Speaker 5: What's been the most challenging aspect [00:09:30] of the project? Speaker 4: I think definitely recruiting people for the project because we've seen so many people come and go last year in our teams that has been really hard to get anything done. Um, we really need people who are skilled in electronics and mechanical engineering and unfortunately I don't have a very big electronics background myself and since I'm graduating in December, I have a lot of requirements that I need to meet and I can't give my all to the project as I could two years ago. So it's been really hard to find people who are as motivated or as determined about the [00:10:00] project to go ahead and finish it up and follow it through and hand it off and I, so that's been a big, big challenge I think. Speaker 5: Is that something that you want to do? Do you want to recruit people what he was attempting to do in that vein? Speaker 4: Yeah, we definitely want to recruit people because it's going to take a lot of work and a lot of minds to prototype one elliptical and then expand it to the entire gym. And like I said, since I'm graduating in December, I definitely want to hand off the project to other people to sort of conduct follow up [00:10:30] research. Like okay, if we put these ellipticals and generate power, do people actually learn from this? Do the energy literacy rates go up, do treadmills get useless. There's a whole host of followup research that could be done and hasn't been done yet and definitely has a potential of being published and presented around the nation I think. Speaker 5: So are you mostly interested in recruiting other engineers and how would they sign up? Speaker 4: So I'm interested in [inaudible] definitely recruiting um, upperclassmen engineers but also [00:11:00] people who have experience in signage and education. Cause I know, I don't know how best to reach people or get the knowledge disseminated about all the energy sustainability going on in the RSF. And that would definitely be helpful. And if anyone's interested they can just email RSF energy@gmail.com we'd be happy to have them on board. Speaker 5: All right. Any of your current efforts documented anywhere of Wiki or mainly list or anything like that? Speaker 4: So we have a webpage, hpg.berkeley.edu [00:11:30] needs to be updated for the past couple months. But generally a lot of our documents are there and we also have a [inaudible] website for all the members of the project. And that's how we communicate for papers that need to be read or budgets they need to be updated and that kind of thing. Speaker 5: Do you know if, uh, there are sort of commercial efforts in this too, like commercial? Uh, Speaker 4: so besides outside, outside universities, I guess so universities are really unique in that their gym [00:12:00] facilities are open for so many hours and frequent, so many users. So unfortunately Jim is like 24 hour fitness even though they're open 24 hours, don't see as much throughput of people or patrons that, um, university of do. So there hasn't been a huge push and they're at that direction. I believe there's a handful of them that use at least the re-roof technology. And there's a couple of gyms that are like, I think there's one gym in Hong Kong that's created some type of something called like a human dynamo where four people will bike on [00:12:30] the sort of combined system and move their hands at the same time and that will generate a whole lot of power for the gym. But aside from that, then not much that I know, it seems like a natural for a gym setting is to make it competitive somehow. I know both Oregon State and University of Oregon did retrofits and they sort of had a competition like who can create the most energy. Um, and we hope when we actually retrofit the gym to involve some sort of LCD panel that reads out which elliptical is [00:13:00] generating the most energy, you know, compare it across the gym and everyone can see, oh no like I gotta be 12 like my friends over there or something. Yeah. Speaker 4: What's been the most unexpected thing that's happened in the project? So finding an elliptical machine was really hard. We originally thought that it was this elliptical machine floating around and so to haul on the sixth floor that no one really had, no one really knew who it belonged to. So we thought we'd use that for our project. We had [00:13:30] took a while to track down who the professor was who had it laying around and he gladly donated it to our project. And then when we took it apart, we found out that its internal mechanism was completely different than those used at the gym. It was using less electrical resistance like modern, most ellipticals use in was using more mechanical resistance, um, something much more like a recumbent bicycle. So we were like, well if we prototype on this system it's really not going to be compatible with anything in the gym. Speaker 4: So then we had to contact the gym and try [00:14:00] and track down elliptical that way. And luckily they were after a couple of weeks or months, like everything fell together when we finally got it transported. And transporting those big things is also huge hassle from the RSF all the way down to attra very hall on North side on the social outreach part of it, the behavioral aspect of the project. What's been the challenge there to get that up and running? Um, so we conducted a survey of all the members of [00:14:30] the RSF and I believe something like five or 600 responded, which was great. And they, we post questions such as how much energy do you think x, Y and z machines use? Um, to get an idea of how energy literate people are about the machines at the RSF. And so we have a good base of where we think people could have their education, energy education improved. It's just a matter of figuring out the best way to actually do that. So as a mechanical engineering major, unfortunately I haven't [00:15:00] had to deal very much with energy education or engineering education and we could definitely use people on our project who know perhaps more like the psychology of a situation. Like definitely some sort of analysis on where people move in the RSF and where's the best place to place these things and how can we make them as interactive as possible to increase awareness, stuff like that. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 6: you are listening [00:15:30] to spectrum on k a l x Berkeley. We are talking with Maharaji but the human powered gym project of which he is a founding member. Speaker 2: [inaudible]Speaker 5: are there any key things that you're learning in doing this that you might not have learned if you hadn't been involved in this project? Speaker 4: Definitely like in Berkeley engineering for the first three, three and a half years [00:16:00] of your educational career. It's very theoretical and this project has given me the advantage of doing something on the side that's much more hands on and applications of my learning at Berkeley. So that's been really awesome. And then working with other people on a project and just knowing how to work in a team is not something that people teach you in class either until you get to the higher level project-based classes and engineering. So that's been really great. And uh, working and collaborating with people, not only in the mechanical engineering department but the directors of the RSF to [00:16:30] TGF and other funding agencies and Co working together to get all that going is like intense. I can only imagine what professors have to go through to get grants written and proposals and then get the actually get that money and use it for their projects. That's been kind of like a mini Speaker 5: many experience with that. How much time do you estimate you spent working on a project? Speaker 4: Well, I've been working on it since summer of 2009 and I work anywhere [00:17:00] from five to 10 hours a week on it. I think pretty consistently with the exception of last summer and this summer because I've been away doing other internships and research projects. But every time I come back to Berkeley it's like, all right, got to get on. I gotta get going again. Speaker 5: And have your summer internships where you haven't been working on the Human Powergen bin and sort of related fields? Speaker 4: Yeah. Last summer I got the chance to go to Oregon State University and do, uh, an inner and study on the interaction [00:17:30] between wave energy devices in the environment, studying what types of organisms might colonize the environment. Cause I hadn't really, really been looked at. And then this summer I got the chance to go to MIT and study, um, fluid dynamics in the ocean engineering lab there. So starting to get a feel for the field and both on the west and the east coast and getting ideas of what professors doing what. So that's been really great. Yeah. Speaker 5: So for this project, you're probably not going to get completed by the time you graduate and if you're able to hand it off, [00:18:00] would you be involved in trying to get additional funding to make that transition happen? Speaker 4: I think at the moment we haven't used much of our funding because we've had a lot of setbacks and getting ellipticals and getting team members. So depending on the stance of the project in December, we would definitely, depending on if we've used a lot of our funds for prototyping or we're still waiting to get people on board to start prototyping, that would probably influence whether or not we apply for more funding. But I mean [00:18:30] more money's always great cause right now the funding we have budgeted, we'll only retrofit 14 of the 28 ellipticals. So if we are to consider doing all 28 we definitely need to look for more funding. I'm just sort of hesitant to do it right now because we don't actually have anything prototyped at the moment and no real product to show before we apply for more funding. Speaker 5: What is it that you like about engineering? What drew you to engineering? Speaker 4: So actually one thought I wanted to be a film major for a really long time [00:19:00] and then I went to a summer program just for like fun. I was like, okay, I'll get out of the house for a month, uh, in mechanical engineering. And they had us like take apart part printer, take apart a blender and like build these little like out of the box robots. You're just like screw a few things in the other and put a battery. And I think just the whole idea of like building things and taking things apart sort of amazed me. And I was always like really good at puzzles and math and so it was like, oh this is like way more fun than making movies. [00:19:30] So that's sort of what drawn me to it. Speaker 5: Has Your work on this project given you a better sense of how what you want to do going forward? Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely. It has encouraged me to look more into alternative forms of energy. That's definitely what I want to do in the future. Unfortunately, it's made me disheartened about human power cause going into the project I thought, Oh yeah, we can just retrofit all the ellipticals and then power the entire gym. We use so much power on a daily basis that that's not [00:20:00] feasible so definitely opens your eyes onto how much power we consume every day and I think this project has been a great stepping stone into the world of alternative energy and I hope to study something like ocean energy and ocean energy extraction for graduate studies in school.

Genetically engineered canola growing outside of established cultivation [00:25:30] regions across North Dakota. A study published by the online journal plus one reports the genetically engineered canola endowed with herbicide resistance have been found growing outside of established cultivation regions along road sides across North Dakota. These escaped plants were found statewide and account for 45% of the total roadside plants sampled. Furthermore, populations were found to persist [00:26:00] from year to year and reached thousands of individuals. The authors found that the escaped plants could hybridize with each other to create novel combinations of transgenic traits, and the authors argue that their result more than 10 years after the initial release of genetically engineered canola raises questions of whether adequate oversight and monitoring protocols are in place in the u s to track the environmental impact of biotech products. Berkeley's [00:26:30] own cell Perlmutter is sharing the Nobel Prize in physics with Adam G. Reese of the John Hopkins University and Brian Schmidt of Australian national universities, Mt. Strom Lowe and siding spring observatories pro mudder led the Supernova Speaker 7: cosmology project that in 1998 became one of the two scientific efforts that are credited with discovering the accelerating expansion of the universe and Schmidt led the competing supernova search team. Pearl mudder is UC Berkeley's 22nd Nobel Medal [00:27:00] winner and the ninth winner of the Physics Prize. The discovery of the accelerating expansion has formed theories of the distant future of an ever expanding universe and has alleged the speculation of dark energy that theoretically makes up almost three quarters of the matter and energy of the universe, but it has proven elusive to observe. Perlmutter has recently been working with NASA and the u s department of Energy to build and launch the first space-based observatory designed specifically to understand the nature of dark energy. Speaker 3: [00:27:30] This news item is also a job opening NASA to seek applicants for next astronaut candidate class. In early November, NASA will seek applicants for its next class of astronaut candidates who will support long-duration missions to the International Space Station and future deep space exploration activities. For more information, visit the website, astronauts.nasa.gov a bachelor's degree in engineering, science, or math [00:28:00] and three years of relevant professional experience are required in order to be considered. Typically, successful applicants have significant qualifications in engineering or science or extensive experience flying high performance jet aircraft. After applicant interviews and evaluations, NASA expects to announce the final selections in 2013 and training to begin that August. Additional information about the astronaut candidate program [00:28:30] is available by calling the astronaut selection office at area code (281) 483-5907 Speaker 2: [inaudible].Speaker 6: The music played during the show is written and performed by David lost honor from his album titled Folk and Acoustic Speaker 2: [00:29:00] [inaudible].
