Inspirational moment

TORONTO -- The concept of “quantum tunnelling” sounds like it would take at least an hour to explain -- but it only took one Fort McMurry, Alta. teenager three minutes, in a video that won an international competition and scored new funding for her future and her school.

Maryam Tsegaye, 17, used her love of science to score the winning prize in the Breakthrough Junior Challenge, a competition in which thousands of students across the world create short videos to express a science or mathematics concept.


“It was really crazy, I didn’t believe it at all when I found out,” Tsegaye told CTV News Channel. She’s known about her win for two weeks, but had to keep it on “the down low,” until the winner was announced on December 3.

Comments from our guests and members

Members and guests attending our weekly meetings are very important to us. Based on your comments we are able to produce many more educational, inspiring, and entertaining weekly meetings.

Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?   

I attended the weekly meeting on December 9 and it was full of amazing, inspiring information and videos! From the short Don't Judge and Three Seconds videos (which I shared on my FB page) to the speaker - Monica Araya (Ted Talks) on Detox of Transportation. Well done!
-- Sharon Blaker, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

December 12. A very touching story about the runner who was leading the race and got lost near the finish line and the second place person helped him get over the line and retain his lead.
-- David Werrett, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

December 14. Attended regular weekly meeting of RECCO featuring presentation by Cliff Dochterman. Great speaker who effortlessly used humour to deliver his inspiring message about the value of Rotary.
-- Keith Evans, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

December 13. Detoxifying Transportation. In Alberta, Canada, and in North America, we have a significant number of voters and activists that will need to be convinced that we need to change their habits.
-- Jean Michel Crepin, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

10 years to transform the future of humanity. I enjoyed this information and it really makes a person think about the WHOLE picture.
-- Diane Ellis, Rotary Club of Saint City, St. Albert, Alberta, District 5370
