You might think that someone who loves nature would rather be outside than inside, bent over a book. You’d be right, with one notable exception: the members of the Nature Lovers’ Book Club, based out of the White Salmon Valley Community Library in White Salmon. Members meet via Zoom (for now) at 4 p.m. on the first Friday of every month.

Computer simulations hold tremendous promise to accelerate the molecular engineering of green energy technologies, such as new systems for electrical energy storage and solar energy usage, as well as carbon dioxide capture from the environment. However, the predictive power of these simulations depends on having a means to confirm that they do indeed describe the real world.
Such confirmation is no simple task. Many assumptions enter the setup of these simulations. As a result, the simulations must be carefully checked by using an appropriate validation protocol involving experimental measurements.

Naomi Campbell has revealed she buys hazmat suits in bulk after fearing they d go into short supply during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The model, 50, who has shocked fans with her elaborate cleaning regime which includes the use of full body PPE, admitted she signs up for a subscription service to buy the suits, and at times has panicked when she feared they were sold out.
Naomi also hit back at those who claimed she was stealing hazmat suits from medical staff by claiming she purchased them online fair and square.
