For an  update, we return to the theme of energy, particularly as it relates to  geopolitics and impacts on the environment. A current review of these  issues was made recently by our colleague Dr. Achilles G. Adamantiades,  who presented it at the <strong>2<sup>nd<\/sup> Hellenic Forum for Science, Technology, and Innovation <\/strong>at the Demokritos Research Center in Athens on July 3<sup>rd<\/sup> 2014.

So far, the Hellenic University Club and the Districts 4 and 5 of AHEPA  have started concerted efforts to spread the news about the  advantageous new program and to encourage its attendance by students in  their locality. On the other hand, individual faculty members of U.S.  colleges and universities are being apprised of the Program, so that  they can competently advise students to include it in their academic  course planning.<\/p>\n<p>We hope that these efforts will be amplified in the next few months,  so that the launching of this very important program in the summer 2015  can be an unmitigated success.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em> <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Notice to Members of the Hellenic Link, Inc.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As is known, election of a new Board of Directors is to be carried out as usual by mail,<\/p>\n<p>again this year, according to the by-laws of the Association.<\/p>\n<p><br class=\"spacer_\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The appointed Election Committee has made the recommendation to  postpone the balloting process until the end of the summer in order to  avoid the disruptive difficulties in communication due to summer  vacations, etc. The recommendation has been endorsed, and<\/p>\n<p>the members will receive correspondence concerning the election  procedure from the Committee\u00a0 early in the Fall.
