This is the VOA Special English Development Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com
The lack of clean drinking water is a major problem worldwide. The World Health Organization says more than one billion people live in areas where renewable water resources are not available. The problem is especially serious in Asia and the Pacific.
A United Nations report says water availability in that area is the second lowest in the world, after Africa.
Nearly seven hundred thousand people in Asia and the Pacific lack safe drinking water. The U.N. report notes that the world’s poorest countries are also the ones that use the most water for agriculture. Agriculture uses about eighty percent of the water in the Asia-Pacific area. There has also been an increase in water used for industry. China and India more than tripled their industrial water use between nineteen ninety-two and two thousand two.
The lack of clean drinking water around the world forces millions of people to drink unsafe water.
This leads to an increase in diseases like diarrhea, the second leading cause of death in children under five. Floods, droughts, pollution and
climate change have created
even more problems.
The Millennium Development Goals
for two thousand fifteen call for a
fifty percent decrease in the number
of people without safe drinking water
and basic sanitation.
Scientists, governments and aid organizations around the world are increasing their efforts to meet these goals. Still, the U.N. says there is much work to be done. During its yearly World Water Day observance in March it called on the international community to work together to solve the water crisis. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are doing just that.
The American and South Korean researchers are investigating a new technology for turning sea water into drinking water. The new technology is called ion concentration polarization. The process uses electricity to
help separate electrically charged
salt particles from water to
make it drinkable.
The researchers tested their desalination process on a computer chip the size of a postage stamp.
The chip removed ninety-nine percent of the salt and other harmful substances from water samples.
So far the method purifies only small amounts of water. But the researchers say it may someday be available as a personal water purification product.
And that’s the VOA Special English Development Report.

ABSTRACT
Presented by Geoff Hinton, University of Toronto.
Deep networks can be learned efficiently from unlabeled data. The layers of representation are learned one at a time using a simple learning module that has only one layer of latent variables. The values of the latent variables of one module form the data for training the next module. Although deep networks have been quite successful for tasks such as object recognition, information retrieval, and modeling motion capture data, the simple learning modules do not have multiplicative interactions which are very useful for some types of data.
The talk will show how to introduce multiplicative interactions into the basic learning module in a way that preserves the simple rules for learning and perceptual inference. The new module has a structure that is very similar to the simple cell/complex cell hierarchy that is found in visual cortex. The multiplicative interactions are useful for modeling images, image transformations, and different styles of human walking.

Lecture by Professor Andrew Ng for Machine Learning (CS 229) in the Stanford Computer Science department. Professor Ng provides an overview of the course in this introductory meeting.
This course provides a broad introduction to machine learning and statistical pattern recognition. Topics include supervised learning, unsupervised learning, learning theory, reinforcement learning and adaptive control. Recent applications of machine learning, such as to robotic control, data mining, autonomous navigation, bioinformatics, speech recognition, and text and web data processing are also discussed.

I taped this video from MTV on the day it premiered. By the following day it was gone and I have never seen it again. Nobody that I’ve showed it to has ever seen it. Sorry for the poor quality, but the VHS tape is very old and some quality was lost in transferring it to .avi format
