Minister of Transport and Infocommunications Pengiran Dato Seri Setia Shamhary bin Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mustapha on Wednesday attended the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance (APICTA) Awards 2024 Reception that gathered hundreds of participants and delegates from participating countries. Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Transport and Infocommunications (MTIC) and Co-Chair I of the APICTA Awards 2024 Working Committee Ir Haji Mohammad Nazri bin Haji Mohammad Yusof, in his welcoming remarks, said, “Brunei Darussalam has been given the privilege of hosting the APICTA Awards 2024, 12 years since we last hosted it in 2012. It is an honour to host this prestigious event in Brunei Darussalam, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the Brunei ICT Awards (BICTA).” He reiterated that Brunei Darussalam “has always been a strong advocate for technological advancement. Today, we come together to celebrate the exceptional innovations and achievements in the world of information and communication technology (ICT) across the Asia-Pacific region and stand proud as a platform for collaboration, learning, and the exchange of cutting-edge ideas”. The APICTA Awards, he described, “have become a symbol of excellence, recognising the creativity, passion, and hard work of ICT professionals, entrepreneurs, and organisations across the region. It is a testament to the incredible strides being made in ICT, from innovative start-ups to established enterprises and from visionary developers to forward-thinking policymakers.” He emphasised that APICTA’s vision and mission align with Brunei Darussalam’s own vision of fostering a knowledge-based economy. “As we navigate through an era of rapid technological transformation, it is crucial that we continue to inspire and support the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and innovators who will shape the future of ICT not just in our region but across the globe. Together, through APICTA, we can create an environment that nurtures collaboration and pushes the boundaries of what technology can achieve for the benefit of our societies.” He also revealed that this year’s APICTA Awards 2024 received the highest number of entries in APICTA’s history, with 279 submissions from 15 member economies. The minister later joined the delegates and APICTA officials for a networking session before heading to the Atrium of The Mall to launch the Digital Brunei Exhibition, showcasing the nation’s innovation progress and commitment to technological advancements. The minister also toured the exhibition following the launch. Held in conjunction with the APICTA Awards 2024, the Digital Brunei Exhibition is open to the public until today, from 10am to 9pm. – James Kon Minister of Transport and Infocommunications Pengiran Dato Seri Setia Shamhary bin Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mustapha in a group photo at the Asia Pacific ICT Alliance Awards 2024 Reception.

GlobalFoundries confirms $1.5 billion award from the US Chips and Science ActSEVEN months into the war in the Gaza Strip, Mohammed Said al-Halimy began documenting his daily routine in earnest. Al-Halimy, known by his friends and online as Medo, already had a teenager’s knack for capturing sunsets, songs and life’s milestones in short video snippets. That life was fractured after Israeli bombs fell on Gaza in response to the Hamas-led Oct 7, 2023, attack, destroying his university and forcing him into a makeshift beach campsite. As months of fighting ground into the summer, and his displacement became more entrenched, al-Halimy turned his phone camera to the surreal experience of everyday reality in dystopian circumstances. “I wanted to show something positive, some resilience despite the daily suffering,” al-Halimy, 19, said in a July interview, adding that he hoped to capture an “unseen side of our lifestyle.” Palestinians trapped in Gaza have been recording the war since it began, in often harrowing videos that have given a close-up view of the Israeli bombardment to millions of people worldwide. Many of their posts – raw, personal and at times graphic – went viral early in the conflict as traditional news media outlets struggled to get reporters into the blockaded enclave. Now, young Palestinians in Gaza are sharing a different window into their lives: their routines amid a year-old war with seemingly no end in sight. Al-Halimy began posting about the hourslong wait to fill containers with drinking water, about concocting recipes with limited food supplies, and about a new garden plot he created in the soil beside the tent encampment that had for months been his family’s shelter. Showing his new baby mint plant to his Instagram followers, he asked, “Tell me in the comments, what should I name her?” More than 6,000 miles away in central Florida, Sierra Taft, 36, was watching, checking al-Halimy’s accounts regularly for updates and worrying about his wellbeing. “He felt like somebody that if I had met face to face, I could be best friends with,” she said. A still image from a video on the Instagram account of Mohammed Said alHalimy in Gaza. Life in Gaza through Instagram Some Palestinians in Gaza document how they cook meals over open fires, using whatever few ingredients are available. Others unpack aid boxes or share exercise routines where doorways double as pull-up bars. And some show how friendly football and chess games are squeezed between piles of rubble and long lines for water. With a command of English and growing followings, these Palestinian creators share their perspectives and appeal for help using the language of online influencers around the world who have amassed vast audiences by filming the minutiae of their lives. So, when Palestinian creators like al-Halimy portray normal activities such as exercising or cooking against the backdrop of war, it is “a language that reaches,” said Laura Cervi, an associate professor of journalism at the Autonomous University of Barcelona who has studied Palestinian activism online. “It’s not a number. It’s not like the complex journalistic vernacular,” she said, adding that from the perspective of viewers, “It’s a guy like me that is telling me that he exists – in the way I exist.” Before the war, Mohammed Faris said his favourite place was the gym. Faris, a Khan Younis resident, had just started his first year at Al-Aqsa University when the war broke out. His parents, employees of UNRWA, the main United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, encouraged him to start documenting his life. Since April, he has been sharing his diet and exercise routines under the account “Gymrat in Gaza,” which has gained more than 180,000 followers. “Why not grab this opportunity to talk to the world?” he said in a recent interview from Khan Younis while refilling his supply of water. Faris said he had raised nearly US$13,000 (RM58,062) online since he started posting videos, and hoped eventually to evacuate his family from Gaza. He said his audience enjoyed it when he incorporated memes and jokes. “I like to add this touch of sense of humour,” he said. But he struggles with the instability of being displaced from his home and the scarcity of healthy foods, he said. Finding stable internet connections can be a challenge, and he sometimes waits hours for a video to upload. “What I want people to receive from my vlogs is that we are trying to cope with the situation,” he said. The fighting has pushed most Palestinians in Gaza into shrinking areas designated by Israel as “humanitarian zones,” though UN officials and aid groups have said that no place in Gaza is safe and they fear famine. Some viewers have criticised al-Halimy and others like him, accusing them of sharing misinformation, or questioning their struggle given their lighthearted messaging. “I’m just showing you the 1% of my life – the 1% that I’m trying to have fun,” he said in a video posted in May. He added: “We’ve been through hell.” A global reach Even before the war, young Palestinians were adopting the lighter tone of online social media to conduct what Cervi calls “playful activism,” pointing to TikTok trends that incorporate humour to make political points. The insistence on sharing everyday routines or incorporating a lighter tone into material about the war, she added, is its own form of defiance. “It’s very political because they’re saying, ‘We’re surviving and we will keep on,’” she said. Framing these videos as lifestyle content, she said, makes it more likely that social media algorithms will share them with a broader audience. Activists elsewhere have used playfully framed videos on social media platforms to share messaging about other causes, Cervi said, such as the struggle to combat the killing of women in Latin America. Researchers say that social media postings not only can elevate causes but tend to simplify them by removing nuance and centring on each creator’s perspective. What seem like candid moments can actually be carefully chosen and edited for effect. Al-Halimy said creating videos helped him endure his everyday hardships. “I do my best to set up new, bright sides of my tent life and make it a day to remember,” he said in an interview in the summer. “A moment of pain, to a moment of hope.” A graduate of a high school for gifted students, al-Halimy had studied in Texas under a State Department program. He said in July that his family had decided to stay together in Gaza, instead of being separated. His online following was growing fast, and he hoped to raise enough money for them all to leave. On Aug 25, he shared his final video on Instagram. The next afternoon, according to a friend who was with him, al-Halimy was at a makeshift cafe in Khan Younis when he was struck in the head by shrapnel from an Israeli airstrike. His brother, Zeid al-Halimy, said that he died at a Khan Younis hospital. In the months since al-Halimy’s death, his followers have been re-watching his videos and have left dozens of tributes in the comments. Some vowed to plant mint in their own gardens to remember him, and a fundraising effort for his family has surged to more than US$137,000. Weeks after his death, Taft, who had never met al-Halimy in person, said she still thought about him every day. She compared losing him to another recent blow, the death of a close school friend. “It’s the same feeling of loss,” she said. Other Palestinians she followed online are never far from her mind. “I’m wondering who the next one is going to be,” she said. — © 2024 The New York Times Company

GTWI Agrees to Provide GME Hydro LP its Patented Natural Gas to Hydrogen Conversion Process

WATERTOWN, Mass. , Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 3D BioLabs LLC ("3D BioLabs" or "3DB"), has reached a pivotal milestone in the field of regenerative medicine as recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences . 3DB's study has demonstrated a new approach to creating large organs to solve the organ transplant shortage. Using 3D printing, computational fluid dynamics, and organ specific cells, their study demonstrated effective blood flow and cell viability and function within the model device, marking a significant advance toward a bioengineered liver replacement. The study was led by 3D BioLabs Scientific Founder Dr. Joseph P. Vacanti , the Distinguished John Homans Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School and Mass General Hospital. 3D BioLabs 3D printed device (3DPD) has been engineered to mimic native liver tissue structure by using fractal architecture to support both vascular anastomosis and hepatocyte function. The device features embedded portal-venous (PV) channels that enable continuous blood flow when implanted and hepatobiliary (HB) channels that support the viability of liver cells. Active perfusion of tissue scaffolds allows for improved oxygen and nutrient availability to increase cell density, further supporting the feasibility of the device as a functional liver tissue substitute. Dr. Vacanti said: "We are extremely pleased to reach this pivotal milestone in the development of functioning 3D printed organs, which furthers our mission of solving the long-standing issue of organ transplant shortages. With our recent study, we are one step closer to achieving an engineered alternative to liver transplantation, addressing critical organ shortages and helping patients in need." 3DB's proprietary technology builds upon decades of work in tissue engineering, beginning with the first patent in tissue engineering granted to Dr. Vacanti in 1988 and the Vacanti ear mouse in 1997. This milestone is supported by recent work implanting large and complex devices into pigs for as long as one week. For further details, visit 3DBioLabs.com .

René Bennett | (TNS) Bankrate.com If you’re an iPhone user, you might not realize that you already have access to Apple Cash. It’s a digital cash card that’s built into Apple devices and can be found in the default Wallet app. (Note: You must link an eligible debit card to use this service.) The main function of Apple Cash is to make it easier for Apple device users to send money to one another, including sending money through the iMessage app. But Apple Cash is more than just a peer-to-peer (P2P) payment service — it can be used to shop online, in stores or to make in-app purchases. Apple Cash is a convenient way to transfer money between friends and family. Once it’s set up, a user can simply open the iMessage app and send money to a contact through their chat. It’s also useful for those who use Apple Pay, a separate service that allows Apple device users to make contactless payments with any linked card, including an Apple Cash card. Here are some important things to know about setting up and using Apple Cash. Apple Cash is a digital cash card that’s stored in the Wallet app of Apple devices, and it can be used for making P2P payments, as well as purchases through Apple Pay. When you receive money from another Apple Cash user, that money appears in your Apple Cash balance. The balance can then be spent or transferred to a linked bank account or debit card. Sending money to peers with Apple Cash can be done either directly from the digital Apple Cash card (in the Wallet app) or through the iMessage app. You can send or receive anywhere between $1 and $10,000 per message. The money shows up on the recipient’s Apple Cash card instantly, but it may take from one to three days for the balance to be transferred to a bank account. Instant transfers to a bank account are possible, but it comes with a 1.5% fee. There’s also an option to set up Apple Cash Family for children who are under 18 years old. This option limits the amount a child can send to $2,000 per message. Those younger than 18 also cannot add money to their Apple Cash card from a bank account; rather, their balance only grows when they receive money from another Apple Cash user. Apple Cash is a digital card within your Wallet that allows you to spend your Apple Cash online, in stores and in apps as well send and receive money. Apple Pay, however, allows you to make purchases using any credit card or debit card you have stored in your Wallet — including Apple Cash. With Apple Pay, you add credit and debit cards to your Wallet and then have the ability to pay right with your phone (or other Apple product). To set up Apple Cash, you’ll need three things: —A compatible Apple device. —Two-factor authentication enabled for your Apple ID (this can be done in Settings). —An eligible debit card to load funds onto the Apple Cash card. In the Settings app, you can turn on Apple Cash in the Wallet and Apple Pay section. Tap on the Apple Cash card icon and follow the instructions on the screen. You’ll be asked to agree to the terms and conditions, after which your device will set up Apple Cash for you. The Apple Cash card, once set up, can be found in your device’s Wallet app. If you want to set up Apple Cash Family, you’ll first need to have Family Sharing turned on, which can be done in Settings. The family organizer can add children to Apple Cash in the Family Sharing section of Settings. You’ll need to have a debit card linked to your digital Wallet to add money to an Apple Cash card. You can add a debit card to Wallet in the same place where you set up Apple Cash — the Wallet and Apple Pay section of Settings. Once a debit card is linked to your Wallet, open Wallet and tap on the Apple Cash card. Then, tap the More button (an icon with three dots). This will open a page where you can see your Apple Cash balance, add money and transfer funds to a bank account. Tap Add Money and enter the amount you’d like to add (the minimum is $10). You’ll be asked to confirm which debit card you want to use to fund the Apple Cash balance, and then the money is added to the Apple Cash card. There are two ways to send a payment to someone using Apple Cash: directly from your Wallet or in the iMessage app. Both the sender and recipient need Apple Cash to send or receive money. To send money from Wallet, simply tap the Apple Cash card in Wallet and then tap Send. Type in the contact name or phone number of the recipient. Enter the amount you’d like to send (between $1 and $10,000), then review the payment and confirm it with Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode. In iMessage, open the conversation with who you’d like to send money to, or start a new one. Tap on the app button, which appears next to the type bar, and then tap on the Apple Cash icon. You’ll be prompted to enter an amount (between $1 and $10,000). Once you’ve reviewed the amount, tap Send and confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or a passcode. The first time money is sent to someone, the recipient will need to accept the payment within seven days for it to go through. After the first instance, payments are automatically accepted. If you’re using Apple Cash to make a purchase either online or in a store, you’ll need to pay using Apple Pay. To request money from your iPhone, open the conversation in the Messages app. Tap the plus icon, followed by Apple Cash. Then, tap Request. Tap the send button to send your payment request. Once the request is sent, the person you sent it to can confirm or change the amount they send to you. You can also request money from your Apple watch. Open your messages app, choose a conversation, tap the plus icon and then choose Apple Cash. Once you enter the amount you are requesting, swipe left on the Send button. Tap Request. As you start to accumulate money on the Apple Cash card, you may want to move it to a debit card or a bank account . This can be done by going to the same place where you added funds to the card, by clicking the icon with three dots next to your digital card.

It also offers a PayPal Debit card, which, like the Apple Cash card, can be used to make purchases online or in stores. —Samsung Pay Cash: Samsung device users can use this option instead of Apple Cash. Similar to Apple Cash, it is a digital wallet that you can access from a Samsung mobile device. However, to take full advantage of Samsung Pay Cash, users will need to undergo an extra registration process to upgrade to a Full Card Account. Apple Cash makes it easy for Apple device users to send money to each other. Users can simply tap the Apple Cash icon in their text messages to send money through iMessage. It can also be used as an extra repository for spending money and can be used for purchases anywhere Apple Pay is accepted. With that said, only Apple device users can send and receive money using Apple Cash, so those looking for a more universal payment service may want to consider other P2P payment apps . ©2024 Bankrate.com.

Enfusion stock hits 52-week high at $10.4 amid growth optimismBankwell Financial Group's director Blake Drexler purchases $427 of stockNone

Swift's daily impact on Vancouver may have exceeded 2010 Games, says industry figureStock market valuations are looking stretched as 2024 winds down, and it's got some market watchers on edge — but investors shouldn't fear, UBS says, as prices are justified and set to keep climbing. At 22.2x, the S&P 500's forward price-to-earnings ratio is far above its average of 16.8x over the last 30 years, and close to its 25.0x record high reached during the dot-com bubble in 1999. Strategists have warned that such mean stocks are due for a correction and are at risk of a painful decline in the event of even mild disruptions. Analysts at UBS, though, argued such elevated are justified—and will climb higher next year—in a note this week titled "22x and Beyond: The Case for Higher Valuations, or How to Worry Less and Love the Market." The strategists, led by Jonathan Golub, pointed first to the tech sector's growing dominance in the S&P 500. Around 30 years ago, before the rise of the internet and long before the smartphone, tech-related companies made up just 10% of the S&P 500's market cap. Now, they account for 40%. At the same time, tech firms have grown their top lines quicker and with higher margins, with sales growth surging almost 11% and margins up 24%, compared to 6% sales growth and 13% margin growth for non-tech stocks. "The result—not surprisingly—is an upward short in valuations for the market broadly," they said in a Monday note. Meanwhile, both tech and non-tech stocks have seen improved cash flows as they become less capital-intensive, the analysts said. The greater cash flows return more to shareholders, helping stocks naturally trade at higher price-to-earnings ratios, they added. They also pointed to lower discount rates, with the current 10-year Treasury yield 40 basis points above its long-term average, while credit spreads are 220 basis points lower. Together, that makes for a 20% decrease in the cost of capital versus the historical average, which helps to explain part of the reason for such high valuations, the analysts said. Lastly, they noted that valuations rise in non-recessionary periods, meaning valuations will likely continue their upward trend next year. "With current recession risks contained, multiples are most likely to drift higher in 2025," they said. The firm's analysis comes as S&P 500's has pushed the benchmark index up 28% in 2024, as tech stocks boom and the economy remains on solid footing. The stock rally saw a fresh catalyst last month with 's reelection, which has fueled hopes of sustained earnings growth as a result of less regulation and lower taxes. Read the original article on
