This is the best budget smartphone on the market. Yeah, that's right. The Pixel 6A, I consider this to be the best budget smartphone because it brings something very unique and very simple that other devices just don't have. Now, some people might mention the nothing phone, which looks cool and great. Don't have it, haven't tried it yet. Or maybe even the Apple devices or maybe devices from Realme, Redmi, you can name many manufacturers. But the one thing that they don't do is just bringing in that simplicity to this device. There isn't too much to cover and that is actually a good thing. The Pixel 6A is 6.1 inches. It's a 60 Hertz display. It's not high refresh rate. And that's great, which means, of course, battery life will be extended quite well. Got a front-facing camera, which I believe is eight megapixels. And that does 1080p 30, which, you know what? I wish it was better, but you know what? It's fine. Moving to the rear, this is where, of course, the Pixel cameras really stand out. You've got two 12 megapixel cameras, one wide, and of course, your main lens, of course, the flash. That's standard new Pixel candy bar layout for your camera lens. And of course, my color is sage and it looks absolutely gorgeous. I love the look. Kind of paired with my speaking case here, so it kind of matches that. I know I've got that green to green ratio here. The Gorilla Glass 6 curved back compared to the flat front of the front display. But this houses a 4,410 milliamp battery, which is very good, and that's the key thing because battery life is something that I really enjoyed on the 6A. Now, when you look at the 6A, the 6 and the 6 Pro, you can see the different size differences between all the devices. What I will say is simply this. I think the Pixel 6A is probably the one that fits the best. Now, I do like larger phones and I love seeing my Galaxy S22 Ultra, but the 6A feels very comfortable. Now, when it comes to typing for me, it's a bit tight, but again, it feels like a comfortable device you use. In terms of charging, there is no wireless charging. It's got an 18 watts fast charging capability. It doesn't come with a charger in the box. So, I would recommend you get this spot boy here from Svegan. This is their ArcStation Pro GNA352 charger. This is a 35 watt charger and you've got dual ports and this will cover your Pixel as well as also any other device you want to use. So, performance. Tensor processor, right? Tensor is a cool processor in terms of photography, AI, gaming, not so much. So, has it improved because this is not a new processor. It's the same process we have in the 6 and the 6 Pro, which is a good thing. Performance-wise, we played three games, Call of Duty Mobile, played at max resolution and we got 56 frames a second, which is good. I'm fine with that, I'm okay with that. And then moving over to Genshin Impact, which has a poorly optimized game, ran that at 30 frames and settings were 30 and it ran pretty much close to 30. I like that and I went a little higher. It was terrible, so not even worth it. Apex Legends ran at the recommended settings and it ran at 40 frames a second, which was good. Again, that's a game that I'm really enjoying right now and I think, you know what? Look, for your mid-tier level gaming, this works well. That's what you need at this price range. You need anything super crazy that will drain your battery and battery life, of course, has been great.  So, you know, take it as you will, it wasn't burning my fingers or anything, so I could actually play for quite a bit of time. Speakers on the other hand though, you know what, just listen to it while you see some games. Now, the big thing, of course, is the camera. I took this out to Houston and I was able to check out the brand new EQS580. Took him photos and videos, so I would just let you see those and enjoy the beauty of the Pixel 6. So, honestly, that is quite impressive. I think the camera is where this shines and also there's the overall usability of this device. Some people are asking a few things like the fingerprint sensor, is it better? I think it's better, it's faster, but it's still not the best.  The device feels very comfortable. I really like it, that's all I gotta tell you guys. At 449, this is probably gonna be one of the best smartphone buys of this year. I am not joking about it. I think anyone's looking for a smartphone and it has a budget of under $500. The Pixel 6a is your device again. So, guys, if you have any questions, any comments, let me know.

two-dimensional, 2D, transition metal oxides and calcogenides, TMO, and CS have gained increasing interest and recent years due to their unique physical, chemical, and optical properties. These properties make them ideal candidates for use in photocatalysis, where they can be used to convert solar energy into useful products such as hydrogen or oxygen. In this review, we discussed the synthesis methods and applications of 2D TMO and C-base photocatalists focusing on strategies to enhance light absorption and charge separation. We also highlight potential future directions for research in this field. This article was authored by Farjana Hack, Torban D'Nique, Kourosh Kalantarzada, and others.


Before we get into the video people I am giving away 11,500 Apex coins to beam with a chance of winning them make sure you are subbed to this channel and have that bell notification button ticked drop a like on the video and leave a comment down below more details are in the video description what is going on guys welcome back to the channel and I appreciate you being here today I bring you another apex legends video and today guys I bring you news on possibly a new PvE mode new maps and also challenges and missions as well as a solo playlist for the battle royale side of the game so guys you know I have you covered on all there is to know about the future of apex legends whether that's leaks news rumors data mine files absolutely anything of interest about the game we love going forward you guys know I will have you covered guys today I want to discuss new data mine files which suggest interesting things which could be happening now it's important to mention as what we will eventually get into could correspond with all the leaks I have recently covered i.e the dragons or flyers and titans these could all tie together okay so since the latest update which came with the battle pass and season one we have seen some interesting files appear within the game so let's check them out firstly people files which suggest a PvE mode yeah a player versus environment mode as you can see on screen now these files one which dates a PvE hub could actually explain why we see dragons or flyers in the latest trailer also seeing flyers newly appearing in the game files and actually finding game renders of these flyers could a new PvE mode becoming where these guys are introduced that makes sense to me it could be also the same mode where we could see titans as over the past few days we've seen many many files which have emerged which suggests respawn us they're working with titans for apex legends we've seen an abundance of new anti-titan weapons added into the game even with dialogue with said weapons coming from legends like octane we've also seen the addition of files referring to titans too new ones pop up so maybe people just maybe it could be this PvE mode which includes both these titans and these flyers we will see but yeah a PvE mode could be quite good and it could work a million different ways i won't try and speculate at the moment as we have other things to cover on this matter so next up we have files referring to missions and squad missions again guys missions and squad missions could really tie into a PvE mode now if these said challenges for sure i could conclude they could be associated with the battle royale side of the game as respawn of what already said that with season two challenges for the battle pass will come into effect but that ain't what this is these are squad missions another thing which could be associated with a PvE mode and finally people we see files referring to a map selector mean that there has to be more than one map now as much as i'd love to see a different map for the battle royale game mode now that i've seen these other files referring to missions and PvE that's what i'm believing this might play a part in now it's early days at the moment this PvE mode these squad missions and this map selector could literally be in early phases of testing hence why we're only seeing these now if that is the case people we won't see anything else for months but either way i'll keep you guys updated for sure i just thought it kind of makes sense with the fact all of a sudden we see flyers within the battle pass trailer which would then datamind confirm that in the game and then we see files referring to a PvE mode kind of makes sense people and the fact we see them in the season one trailer it makes you think that they might just come towards the end of season one indeed okay so the last thing i want to cover guys is solos and it seems as though from a recent datamind that solos are already a part of the playlist in the game and it's just a matter of time before we actually see activated allowing us to play the game solo now personally i don't know how this will pan out i'd imagine there'd be like 50 raves and 10 uptimes on the map at the same time and they're being portals absolutely everywhere just be absolute mayhem be crazy it'd be manic and i truly hope if i do drop solos it will be a part of a limited time mode where they just test it and see how it works and then take it away and make changes for the good otherwise i can honestly see solos being an utter mess but hey people what do you think about that let me know down below in that comment section guys but yeah just a quick video covering PvE covering solos covering titans flyers and just about everything you want to know but yeah guys just a quick video covering the latest news for the end of the game if you enjoyed it leaving a like really does help out if you are new around here and this is what you want to see more of

I'm your host, Sharon Thomas Yarbrough. Welcome and thank you for joining Sister Power. Our topic for this episode is Impact Your Health, amen, free clinic in Honolulu. Adventist medical evangelism network is acronyms for amen. Despite the recent rollout of the Affordable Care Act, there are still 40 million Americans without health insurance and 100 million without dental coverage. We don't have to travel overseas to find a need when there's a mission field in our own backyard. Today, Sister Power would discuss bringing life by providing free professional health care with a VIP guest, Bill Watson Payne, Senior Pastor of the Honolulu Central Seventh Day Adventist Church. Welcome to Sister Power, Pastor Payne. Thank you, Sharon. It is great to be here. Thank you for having me on your show. Thank you for coming. Tell us a little bit about yourself and your background. Well, I am from the beautiful island of Jamaica, and I left Jamaica when I was 11 years old. I lived in New York, lived in Vermont, lived in Texas, Michigan, and I think my favorite place, Hawaii. Absolutely. And you've been at the Honolulu Central Church for how long? I've been at the Honolulu Central Church since February of 2016. That's a short time. It is a short time. But that's not my only experience with Hawaii. I first came to Hawaii in 1996 where my wife was in the military, and so we were pastoring in Houston, Texas, and she called me and says, I'm on orders to go to Hawaii. And I said, hmm, pack your bags. Let's go. So we came to Hawaii in October 1996, and we pastored until 2006 here. Then I went back to stateside, worked on my MDiv and D-Min, and came back here in 2016. We're so happy to have you. And if no one has told you, you and your lovely wife, Audrey, you have done a remarkable job in leading the church forward. Thank you so much. Thank you for that. Thank you. Praise God. Oh, praise God. Yes. And what we're going to talk about today is health care, which is just very important in the state that we're into right now, and tell us about the movement at Venice Medical Evangelism Network of like-minded medical professionals who are committed to restoring the body and reclaiming the heart. Yes. Yes. I first learned about this group in 2000 and late 2016, and I heard about what they do. And so I called and inquired about their services. And a few months later, the doctor, Dr. Vin Trinh, he came to Hawaii on vacation. And so I invited him to our church, and he came and he checked out our facilities. And he says, this would be an ideal place. We have three stories on one building, and then we have our huge sanctuary that seats a thousand, and then we have that huge open area where we can do different things. And so he was excited. And he says, we can do this. We don't have to go to the convention center or different places. We can do it right here on our campus. And so I got even more excited because being there, it would be less expensive for us. And so in a few months, December of 2016, he went to America Samoa, I'm sorry, 2017. He went to America Samoa, and they were able to service 300 people per day. And so over four days, they were able to see a little bit over 1,200 people, medical, dental, and fitting them for eyeglasses and so on. And so what a tremendous ministry. The need is there. There are so many of our people who are underinsured and don't have insurance at all. We have a huge homeless population here in Honolulu, the state of Hawaii. But we can only, we're only servicing Oahu. But this is, it was so exciting to me, exciting to me that we can reach some of our people. We can do what Jesus really wants us to do.  I was hungry. You didn't feed me. I was in prison. You didn't visit me, you know? And so for those who have this need and the health care, so important. So many people are at risk, families are at risk, children are at risk. And so we want to be able to service from the kupunas to the keikis, you know, everybody. We want to be able to service the entire family and anyone who comes, we will not turn away anyone, you know? And so I'm excited about that and just not only that, we would like to provide service in where if a person wants a haircut, you know, we could provide that. If a person wants some spiritual counseling, we provide that. If they want some counseling, some other areas, we'd like to provide that. And this is where our community professionals will come in. Our community professionals who are willing to service and give back to the community, there won't be a paycheck for this one, but it's something that they're saying, we want to give back to our community and we want to offer our services. I'm glad you bought that up about, it won't be a paycheck. So people are volunteering their time. And I read some time ago that one of the secrets to success is volunteering. Share how medical and non-medical volunteers can register. So the Amen website is AmenFreeClinic.org and I went on that website myself and I went through and I registered and you can register as a professional or a support staff.  We will need people to fulfill some 14 different categories of support. So we will have areas that if I could just, can I, you mind if I just say a few of the list? Please go to, and I want people to take note. And also look at the beautiful sanctuary where we worship every Sabbath. Yes. This is where people will be coming to the free clinic and you'll have health lectures. So let's go through the list of the volunteers of medical, now this is on the medical side of volunteers. Yes. Yes. Well, let me, let me say all 14, let me list all 14 and people can say, hmm, I can help in this area or, you know, that one, I'm not so, I had a lady who called me yesterday and she says, pastor, I am not a professional, but I'm retired and I have time. So we will need some 20 to 30 people who will help us to set up and break down every day. Every day.  All right. Excitingly, this is August 23 and 24, which is a Thursday and a Friday, and 26 and 27 Sunday and Monday. And it will be held at 2313 Nuanu Avenue, right beside the Royal Muslim. Okay. Yes. That's our, our church is located adjacent to the Muslim. Okay. So let's hear the list. All right. Of course, we will have people who are helping with registration. That's going to be a huge, seeing 250 to 300 people per day, huge registration. If that's not organized, it'll be chaos. So we'll have computers and, and people sitting out there to register people. All right. We have the medical clearance team that person needs to be a physician, a doctor. Also the dental director, that person also needs to be a dentist. We have the medical director, they're asking for that person to also be a physician. Then the vision director, that one, that person must be an optometrist. And so we have these professional areas. The sterilization director, that person must be 18 or older. We also want to have someone who helps us to control the crowd. Then we have 250, 300 people lining up to be service. We need to be able to tell them where to go. Some are in a waiting area. So that our church sanctuary will be primarily the waiting area. And while people are there, we're doing financial seminars. We're doing any other health lectures on different areas.  Also central supplies, this is a person that, if dental needs something, they will dispatch someone to get that. And so we'll have that also a director for the volunteers. As pastor, I will be interfacing with everyone, but I can't do everything. And so I need the help. So we need someone who can be our volunteer director. Food services. This is something that we want to be able to give people healthy foods. And people are there almost a half a day waiting to be serviced. And so we'll need to give them something to hold them over. A plant director. So we have our bathrooms and the facilities, just someone to help take care of those. We'll do in-house. We'll find someone in-house for that. Our marketing. And you know, someone reaching out to the different organizations, that is going to be key. Because there are supplies that we will need. And we may need to knock on the doors of Home Depot or Walmart or Lowe's or have written a letter to one of the airlines requesting, because the doctors who are coming, they're going to be bringing a lot of supplies. They're bringing, expecting to have 10 to 15 chairs for the dental chairs. And so they're bringing all of that supplies in. And that needs to be shipped. And that's going to be extra cost. And so I'm reaching out to one of the airlines to see if they will help us out with that. Also someone for chaplaincy. We know that people need spiritual care. Not everybody believes the same, but this is not about believing the same. This is about the fact that people have that spiritual need. They may need a prayer or they may not. They may need some counseling. They may be going through a rough time medically, relationally, just personal. So we want to be able to meet the needs of the entire person. And then also hospitality. Just really, people want to come and they see smile in faces. They want to come and know that they're at the right place. They want to come and know that, you know what? I've had a bad week or I've had a bad day. Or my morning just did not start all right. And come in and someone's smiling and say, how are you doing today? We're glad that you're here. We want to serve you. How can we do that? So those are the 14 areas that we will be asking for volunteers. And at a particular time, I'll need to meet with all these individuals. And since the A-Men team, they're in California, we will have them online. And they will give us directions. They will give us information before they finally do come here in August. This is exciting. This is something that's needed. I don't think this is ever. Not that I know of. Pelt here in Honolulu, this freak type of clinic? And this is a clinic and not a fair. And so in terms of a clinic, you're actually doing the medical work. And you will now need to refer, let's say, you do encounter someone who does have a condition that needs servicing right away. We will need to refer that person to a local hospital where they can be cared for beyond what the clinic can do. So this is not a fair just to do a blood pressure check and so on. But people will be outfitted with eyeglasses. People will be, their teeth will be cleaned. If there's extraction that needs to be done, that will be done and so on. So it's a full on medical clinic. OK. Well, we will talk further about this. We're going to take a quick break and come back and talk about the freak clinic. All right. I'm Andrea Gabrieli, the host for Young Talent's Making Way here on Fink Tech, Hawaii. We talk every Tuesday at 11 AM about things that matter to tech, matter to science, to the people of Hawaii with some extraordinary guests, the students of our schools who are participating in science fair. So Young Talent's Making Way every Tuesday at 11 AM only on Fink Tech, Hawaii. Mahalo. I just walked by and I said, what's up? Back to Sister Power and our VIP guest is Pastor Payne.  Amen, free clinic in Honolulu. And this is exciting that we're going to have a free clinic here in Honolulu for vision and for medical. And before the break, we were talking about the volunteers that you need, medical and non-medical volunteers. Now will the, let's say, clients, will they need to make an appointment? No, but they can. It's nice if they do. They can go on the website and click that they're patient, that they're coming to be serviced. So you can, the same website, you can volunteer as a professional or volunteer as a non-professional. But you can also click where you want to set an appointment for one of those four days. And again, those days are October 23 and 24. That's a Thursday and a Friday. And August 26 and 7, a Sunday and a Monday. And so they can go on the website and choose one of those days when they would like to come. What we are wanting, we want to involve, this thing is to, again, is to impact our community. There are a number of people, and I believe you may have some statistics on this, there are a number of individuals who are without health care. 6% of the population, they are uninsured. We have approximately almost 5,000 homeless people in Honolulu and approximately 8,000 people statewide. So the free clinic is needed. Definitely, definitely.  We won't be able to see everyone because of the capacity. However, the more doctors we have, the more we can service. The more dentists we have, the more we're able to service. The more volunteers we have, the more we're able to service.  And we enjoy the lifestyles that we have as professionals, as people who are well to do. But we look at those who have need. And how can I, as an individual, give back to my community? Well, this is one way in which if you need to take, perhaps, a vacation day or so, and said, you know what, I'm going to take one day, and I'm going to volunteer for that day to help out this health clinic. There are families that have the multigenerational families in Hawaii. Because of the cost of living, multigenerations are living together. So you have grandma and mom and the keikis, the children, the teenagers, they're all there. And sometimes, they don't have care. And so we can bring that whole family in to be serviced. And when that family comes, sometimes, I have seen it where a child is, we say, squinting. They're trying, it's very hard to see. And not realizing that that child needs glasses, but that the family don't have the funding to be able to go down, take an exam, and then to be outfitted with glasses. The amen team will be bringing glasses for that and outfitting anyone who have that need. And so they're just these different areas. And so if people are wanting to give back to their community financially or physically, come in.  You know, listening to you, Pastor Payne, this is the time in August where I think all the churches should come together. I think so. This is a time that the sororities should come together, the fraternities to come together, the Rotary Clubs can reach out. There's so much that's needed here. And then we can just all come together and put smiles on people's faces. I have a question for you. What do patients need to know? Amen do not require proof of insurance or employment, right? Is there any type of? We would like for them to have an ID. That way that they're recorded in the system that they are. We can put a name and we know that often many of them will not have addresses. But if they have some kind of ID of some sort to be able to, because let's say they won't be able to get their glasses that day, all right? So they will be fitted for the glasses that we tested. So in about two to three weeks, those glasses will come back. And I will need to be able to get in touch with that family, that individual, or tell them to come check back with us in three weeks or so and to be able to fit your glasses. And so that is a part of the system. So they will have to register. They will need some information on them. Just like the food bank, a food bank, often a person come and they have that need. Because we get food from the Hawaii food bank, then we do need to record that X number of persons. And here's their name. We don't take social security number and all that kind of stuff, not that. Just having some kind of indication of an ID of that person. So this is a time that I did see on one of the social medias that a gentleman goes out and he gives free haircuts to all of the homeless. And one lady on Monday, she owns a restaurant. And on Monday, she feeds the homeless. So what Honolulu Central Seven Day Adventist Church is offering to our community is a free clinic for four days. So let's go over, before we close, let's go over the needs. Well, we did go over the purpose. And let's go over that again. Go over the needs that will complete this free vision, free clinic vision, I should say. So what we're trying to do is to carry out the mission that Christ would have us to carry out. To reach those who are in need. Not everybody have a need. But those who are in need and come, we want to serve them. We want to serve them by lots of people have dental needs. And so we'd like to satisfy that. Lots of people have other medical needs. We'd like to let them know where they are. If a person come and they're at risk, the doctors will do A1C tests to help them to really see where they are. Are they diabetic? What are the things that they need to really look at? Educate, educate, educate. This is what this is all about. We need to educate the mind. We need to let them know that they're those who love and care about them. And that's why we're doing all of this. And so now bringing in all the volunteers from different churches and organizations and hospitals who are willing to help us come together. We can service about 1,200 people or more. Well, let's show a picture of the church on the outside where people will be lining up. And this is Honolulu Central Seven Day Adventist Church, 2313 New Anu Avenue. And this is where the free clinic will start, right at this beautiful location. We have a huge Lanai area, and there the computers will be set up, and people are able to come in and register. And from there, they will then go into the sanctuary where different things will be happening, whether a seminar on finances, a seminar on spiritual care, different things will be happening that they can take part in when their names are called for medical, and their names are called for dental, names are called to be outfitted with glasses. All those different things will take place there. And I also know there will be HIV testing. Yes, yes, yes. Quite interesting. That's very interesting. I'm so glad we're having, I'm calling on all of my friends to come out and help. Thank you, thank you. I think this is so needed. I think that if you're retired, as you're speaking, and you have a few hours or a day to lend to the Amen Clinic, I would ask you to come out and volunteer. Before we close, I want you to look into that camera and give us that last word on the people and the needs of purpose and why people should come. Yes. I appeal to you, those who are listening and watching this show, that as you have been blessed, we're asking you to give back, whether it's monetarily or with your time. If you're a professional and you're able to give your services during this time, August 23, and 24, 26, and 27, please go to the website. It is amenfreeclinic.org and register as a professional or register as an individual who will be a support staff. We need you. We need the people to come together so that we can service our community. Thank you, Pastor Payne. Thank you. Thank you so much. It's been my pleasure being here. Audience, for spending part of your day with us, oceans of aloha, peace, and love.
