Andrew Bai and Krista Little picked the date for their wedding more than a year ago: Dec. 12, 2020 in Providence.

They chose the date because it is Littles grandmothers birthday. The couple, who live in Foxboro, chose Providence because its where they had their first date nearly six years ago. They planned to send out 150 invitations, figuring 125 people would probably wind up going.

Then the pandemic arrived in March, and throughout the spring and summer they watched as Gov. Gina Raimondo repeatedly reduced the number of people allowed at events.

We kept pushing forward, said Bai, who works in downtown Providence. We really want to get married so we kept the date and adjusted accordingly.

But in early November, the maximum they could have for an indoor wedding decreased from 50 to 25, and they had some tough decisions to make. We had set our own point-of-no-return date, which was late September/early October.

Bai had heard Raimondo say at one of her weekly briefings that if someone had an event planned already, to apply for a waiver.

They applied on Nov. 9, but didnt hear anything for weeks. The lack of communication with the government and everyone that is trying to do these events is incredible, Bai said. People have booked hotel rooms, we did final payments for our vendors and we still dont know if we can have a wedding. Its extremely frustrating.

Then came the pause which meant no events of any size indoors fromNov. 30 to Dec. 13, at least. Although their wedding would fall within the time of the restrictions,Bai and Little still had hope they might get a waiver as they had submitted detailed plans.

Finally, onFriday they were rejected.

That was a punch to the gut, Bai said, adding that the mixed messages from state and local officials was baffling. If you were going to deny us anyway, why give us this ray of hope?

Bai and Little have decided to go ahead and get married. They submitted the wedding license at FoxboroTown Hall on Monday and will get married at nearby Patriot Place Saturday in a small ceremony, followed by dinner with family. But they didnt want to cancel on the vendors who have ridden the roller coaster with them the past six months.

So theyll still have the reception in Providence when it is clear to hold events again. Im not doing this again;Im not going to bump it out two more months and things arent where theyre supposed to be and we have to do it again and again, Bai said.

On Saturday, Little is not wearing her wedding dress and Bai is not wearing the new, tailor-made suit for him and his groomsman. Theyre going to save that for the reception.

Were going to have a hell of a party when this finally does happen and well make light of it then, but right now in the current moment this has been a nightmare.

Automotive Interior LED Lighting Market Size, Trends, Share, Analysis, Regional Outlook and Forecast 2020-2027 - The Haitian-Caribbean News Network

New York, Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Asia Pacific Horticulture Lighting Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Analysis - by Technology, Application, and Cultivation" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05978825/?utm_source=GNW Due to the population boom witnessed in APAC countries, the demand for food products is anticipated to extend within the coming years.

This is often why several countries in APAC are focusing on greenhouse and indoor farming techniques to extend their agricultural yield significantly.Use of artificial lights for farming purposes is sort of low, particularly in some developing countries across APAC region.

Still, with the growing popularity of horticulture and indoor crop cultivation, the APAC horticulture lighting market is predicted to pace up quickly within the near future because the farmers are adopting big data technologies, predictive analytics, internet of things, and automation within the farming techniques.Such developments and research initiatives taken in the horticulture field are driving the growth of the APAC horticulture lighting market.

Growing government initiatives such as legalization of cannabis, various incentives is among the other factors expected to positively influence the demand for horticulture lighting in APAC. Furthermore, the APAC region is highly affected by COVID-19 outbreak, especially China and India. APAC is characterized by a large number of developing countries, positive economic outlook, high industrial presence, huge population, and rising disposable income. All these factors make APAC a major growth driving region for various markets, including horticulture lighting. Due to the pandemic, uncertain consumer demand and supply chain problems have affected the horticulture lighting industry in the region. The lockdown of various factories in China has affected the supply chains and negatively impacted the manufacturing and sales of various products and services. The pandemic has a severe impact on the LED industry since the supply chain is mostly located in this region and production majorly comes from China. The governments are taking drastic measures to reduce the effects of coronavirus outbreak by announcing lockdowns as well as travel and trade bans. All these measures are expected to have a negative impact on the adoption and growth of horticulture lighting in 2020 and 2021.

Based on cultivation, the fruits and vegetables segment led the APAC horticulture lighting market in 2019.The dominance of this segment is mainly ascribed to the significantly greater use of artificial light for growing vegetables and fruits than that in the cultivation of flowers.

According to the APAC-based Department of Agriculture, in 2019, there was a rise in the production of apples, grapes, and pears, than that in 2018, in APAC region.This is anticipated to contribute toward the greater use of horticulture lighting in the cultivation of fruits and vegetables.

The climate variations in APAC countries, such as Australia and India, hamper agriculture, which compels them to import fresh vegetables and fruits from neighboring regions.The indoor and vertical farming techniques allow these countries to produce fruits and vegetables in a controlled environment.

The fruits and vegetables segment is expected to dominate the market in the APAC region during the forecast period.

The overall APAC horticulture lighting market size has been derived using both primary and secondary sources.To begin the research process, exhaustive secondary research has been conducted using internal and external sources to obtain qualitative and quantitative information related to the market.

The process also serves the purpose of obtaining overview and forecast for the APAC horticulture lighting market with respect to all the segments pertaining to the region.Also, multiple primary interviews have been conducted with industry participants and commentators to validate the data, as well as to gain more analytical insights into the topic.

The participants who typically take part in such a process include industry experts, such as VPs, business development managers, market intelligence managers, and national sales managers, along with external consultants, such as valuation experts, research analysts, and key opinion leaders specializing in the APAC horticulture lighting market. Key players operating in the APAC horticulture lighting market include General Electric Company; Heliospectra AB; Hubbell, Inc.; Lumileds Holding B.V.; OSRAM Licht AG; and Signify N.V.Read the full report: https://www.reportlinker.com/p05978825/?utm_source=GNW

When Dr. Norman Rosenthal moved to the U.S. from South Africa, he felt less energetic during the harsh winters. He noticed that other people felt the same way. "Just like the autumn leaves, they became depressed on schedule," says Rosenthal, a clinical professor of psychiatry at Georgetown University School of Medicine. "In spring, the condition reverses itself." He studied the problem, published the first research on the syndrome and coined its name: seasonal affective disorder, or SAD.

Rosenthal found that about 1 in 20 people in the U.S. has SAD. If you have it, you may feel sluggish or depressed, oversleep, overeat, gain weight and be uninterested in doing things you previously enjoyed. Many more people have the winter blues, a milder version of SAD, where you feel like a sadder, sleepier or slower version of yourself.

One of Rosenthal's patients described themselves as feeling like a bear in the winter and wanting to hibernate. "So if you feel any identification with a hibernating bear, you might well have SAD," he says. Women are about four times more vulnerable than men, and the condition is more common in the Northern Hemisphere.

With winter just around the corner, here's why you may feel this way and simple ways to feel better.

When Maia was a teenager, she noticed that in the winter, she didn't feel like herself. She says she was "just lying there for hours and hours, not knowing how to get out of bed and move or do anything." The songwriter from California doesn't use her last name to protect the privacy of her family. (She goes by mxmtoon, pronounced em-ex-em-toon, in her music.) It was hard for her to do basic things like eat a meal, drink water or even use the bathroom.

She tweeted about it. "I went on Twitter and I was like, am I crazy? Because I feel really sad right now." Lots of people tweeted back, telling her to look into seasonal affective disorder. So she talked to her parents and friends and realized they all felt the same way.

Rosenthal says if you feel like things are getting more difficult every fall when it gets darker earlier, but you feel better in the bright days of spring and summer, you may well have SAD.

While some people don't feel different at all when the seasons change, Rosenthal says others are quite disabled by it. People diagnosed with SAD, he says, are "people who would go to a doctor because the problem was bad enough."

Rosenthal says it can be hard to recognize a pattern, because the symptoms creep up on you. "For example, it might be a little bit serious in September and a little worse in October and a little worse in November. It's a little bit like the story of the frog in the bowl that keeps getting warmed up, and he doesn't really realize that he's going to die of overheating because it happens so incrementally."

But, he says, recognizing your symptoms and taking them seriously are critical, because SAD can be debilitating or worse.

Light and not getting enough of it are at the heart of this disorder.

It turns out that a fundamental part of the physiology of this condition is that some people just need more light. One often recommended fix for this is a SAD lamp. Rosenthal says these lamps generate light that's far more intense than indoor lighting about 10,000 lux, a measurement of light.

This light is absorbed through the eyes, not the skin but, he says, don't stare at it. Rosenthal says he places it so that the light is shining down on him, just like it would if it were a sunny day. "That's how we evolved to see light with the heavens above and the sun shining down, so that it comes and hits the bottom part of our retina." The morning is often the best time, and the earlier the better.

He says if you use the lamp for about 20 to 30 minutes a day, you should feel a difference within two weeks. If you don't, return it.

Recent studies suggest that the value of preventive light therapy is inconclusive and that it's really a patient's preference whether to use it or not. But as a treatment for those who have seasonal affective disorder, SAD lamps have made a big difference.

Isabel Harris, known as Iz in the vlogging world, experiences SAD as "general fogginess and sleepiness." Most people go about their day normally with indoor lighting, but for people with SAD, that indoor lighting is the equivalent of darkness. Iz bought a SAD lamp, and the result was astonishing. "If I come in feeling a bit foggy-headed, I'll turn it on and it functions a lot like taking a walk outside, just like allowing my brain to wake up a little bit."

She has used this SAD light for eight years. "And on the days that I don't, I notice a significant difference in irritability and kind of just general hopelessness and energy levels," she says.

Remember, even if you use a SAD lamp, make sure you are still trying to get as much natural light as possible. Go outside, even if you don't feel like it, because even when it appears overcast, you are getting light from the sun. Remember that small things can make a difference, so trim any overgrowth around your windows and clean the panes.

Rosenthal says people with SAD have a tremendous appetite for carbohydrates. "They crave sweets and starches. And needless to say, that puts on weight, and they can't always take it off in the summer, so every year they're ratcheting up a little more, a little more, and it's a real problem."

Emily Manoogian, Ph.D., is a clinical researcher at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. She says it's not only what you eat and how much but, importantly, when.

To understand this, we need to understand circadian rhythms.

" 'Circadian' is just Latin for 'about a day.' When we talk about circadian rhythms, it's referring to these 24-hour rhythms that we have within our body and throughout biology," she says.

Think of every cell and system in your body as having a tiny clock. And each of these tiny clocks is on approximately a 24-hour cycle, so a master clock in your brain coordinates and makes sure those tiny clocks work together. This "circadian system" essentially signals to your body what time of day it is and what time of year it is and helps match your behavior with your environment.

Manoogian says people with SAD usually have a sort of delay in their circadian rhythm. Manoogian says just like light, food is an important cue to your body. "If you are eating, your body thinks it should be awake."

So what does this have to do with SAD?

She says when the days get shorter, eating or not eating is a good way to signal all those tiny clocks. "Being able to coordinate your internal clocks with your environment can kind of help ease any burden that changes in seasons might have," she says.

Make sure to stop eating three hours before you go to sleep, so your body knows to rest. By just controlling the time that you eat and keeping it within a consistent 10- to 12-hour window, you're giving your body a really strong cue to tell it the time of day, regardless of anything else that's going on.

Like light or food, exercise is another environmental cue that helps signal to all those internal clocks what time it is. Manoogian says physical activity is a cue that says "wake up." "Doing things like exercising during the active time of your day can actually help your body know kind of what time of day it is, coordinate using all that energy and stimulate the brain to be awake to the right time of day and then allow your body to really rest in the evening."

She says controlling those external cues allows your body to really respond to the environment much better.

Rosenthal says when it's cold and dark and you don't feel energetic and aren't active, it can turn into a vicious cycle. "You don't feel like getting up in the morning, so you pull the covers over your head, so you get less light. So you feel more depressed, so you feel even less like getting up. Whereas if you force yourself to get up, then push yourself to do all these things, then you can feel much, much better," he says. Try to push through.

Rosenthal says seasonal affective disorder has three main causes: a genetic component, a lack-of-light component and stress.

He says if you didn't have to do anything, the symptoms wouldn't be as pronounced. "It's when you've got things to do and you're feeling down and not thinking straight and not feeling effective, that's where you can really feel most depressed."

Reduce stress as much as you can. You may want to see a therapist and talk through how you feel. You may want to try meditation. Rosenthal says the effects of practicing meditation on SAD haven't been fully studied yet, but he believes it can help because meditation destresses you.

Be proactive about making pleasurable plans.

Maia says she doesn't wait for occasions like a birthday or holidays to do something special anymore; she celebrates small things that bring her joy. "I try and make myself have things to look forward to, whether it's like baking a pie on the weekend or drinking a cup of tea every single day. And that fuels me a little bit more and feeds me as a person when I'm not able to go outside and feel fed by the world."

For Maia, an important form of self-care is songwriting. Writing about what she's going through helps her process her feelings. She released a song called "Seasonal Depression" as mxmtoon.

She also accepts that for her, winter will never feel like summer. "I've also reminded myself that it's just an indication that the year is passing by and that's OK. Reminding yourself that everything is cyclical and it's bad right now, but it will be good in the future."

Rosenthal says a lot of people do really well following these simple tips. But if you don't find yourself feeling better or if SAD is interfering with your personal relationships or work, he says, medication can also be very effective.

And keep in mind that none of this will make the disorder go away, but as Rosenthal puts it: "It's not a cure, but ... sometimes the SAD dies of neglect."

New York, Oct. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "North America Horticulture Lighting Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Technology, Application, and Cultivation" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05978899/?utm_source=GNW

Increase in population and advancements in greenhouse and indoor farming techniques are expected to boost the growth of the horticulture lighting market in North America.Due to the population boom, the demand for food products is anticipated to increase in the coming years.

This is why numerous countries in North America are focusing on greenhouse and indoor farming techniques to increase their agricultural yield significantly.With the growing popularity of the concepts of horticulture and indoor crop cultivation, the North America horticulture lighting market is expected to pace up quickly in the near future as the farmers are adopting big data technologies, predictive analytics, the internet of things, and automation in the farming techniques.

For example, The Vineland Research and Innovation Centre, a Canadian research organization, is currently testing a robot that picks mushrooms.Such developments and research initiatives taken in the horticulture field are driving the growth of the North America horticulture lighting market.

Rising government initiatives is among the other factors expected to positively influence the demand for horticulture lighting in North America. Furthermore, in case of COVID-19, North America is the worlds worst affected region due to coronavirus outbreak, specially the US. North America is an important market for the growth of horticulture lighting products owing to the presence of developed countries such as the US and Canada in this region. Large no. of farmers has been affected by coronavirus in North America, threatening access to agricultural labor and disrupting worldwide supply chains. However, for indoor farming, it has offered an opportunity. In vertical farming, the batches of crops can be watered individually and ignited with the help of LED lights, enabling them to be grown year-round with less resource. Nevertheless, the factory and business shutdowns across the US, Canada, and Mexico negatively impacted the sales of horticulture lighting products, such as LED lights and fluorescent lamps. COVID-19 has had a severe impact on logistics operations, transportation, and trade activity across North America.

Based on technology, the LED lights segment led the North America horticulture lighting market in 2019.LED lights are made from a very thin layer of doped semiconductor material.

An LED emits colored light at a particular spectral wavelength, depending on the semiconductor material used and the amount of doping.The ability of LEDs to separate waste heat from the illumination allows the placement of LEDs near plant canopies without the risk of plants overheating.

However, the cost of LED light bulbs is higher than the other horticulture lighting technologies, such as fluorescent lamps and HID lights.While working in indoor farms, the personnel need to use eye protection, since LEDs can be harmful to human eyes.

Durability and easy availability of LED lights is the main reason for their success in market, which ultimately drives the North America horticulture lighting market.

The overall North America horticulture lighting market size has been derived using both primary and secondary sources.To begin the research process, exhaustive secondary research has been conducted using internal and external sources to obtain qualitative and quantitative information related to the market.

The process also serves the purpose of obtaining overview and forecast for the North America horticulture lighting market with respect to all the segments pertaining to the region.Also, multiple primary interviews have been conducted with industry participants and commentators to validate the data, as well as to gain more analytical insights into the topic.

LED Indoor Lighting Market analyzes the impact followed by restraints and opportunities and projected developments (2020-2026) - The Think Curiouser

New York, Oct. 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "South America Horticulture Lighting Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Technology, Application, and Cultivation" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05978926/?utm_source=GNW According to the latest UN estimates, the population of South America would rise at a fast pace by 2030.

Due to the population boom witnessed in Brazil and Argentina, the demand for food products is anticipated to increase in the next few years.This is why several countries are focusing on greenhouse and indoor farming techniques to increase their agricultural yield significantly.

Use of artificial lights for farming purposes is quite low, particularly in countries, such as Brazil and Argentina.Still, with the growing popularity of horticulture and indoor crop cultivation, the horticulture lighting market is expected to pace up quickly in the near future as the farmers are adopting big data technologies, predictive analytics, Internet of things, and automation in the farming techniques.

Such developments and research initiatives taken in the horticulture field are driving the growth of the SAM horticulture lighting market. Moreover, rise in government initiatives to create awareness about sustainable cropland in order to support sustainability is among the other factors expected to positively influence the demand for horticulture lighting in SAM.

Based on technology, the LED lights segment led the SAM horticulture lighting market in 2019.LED lights are made from a very thin layer of doped semiconductor material.

An LED emits colored light at a particular spectral wavelength, depending on the semiconductor material used and the amount of doping.Though the cost of LED light bulbs is higher than the other horticulture lighting technologies, such as fluorescent lamps and HID lights but the major advantage it provides is its ability to separate waste heat from the illumination source, which allows the placement of LEDs near plant canopies without the risk of plants overheating.

While working in indoor farms, the personnel need to use eye protection, since LEDs can be harmful to human eyes.Long lasting capability and low power consumption of LED lights is the main reason for their success in market, which ultimately drives the SAM horticulture lighting market.

Furthermore, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted the SAM region. Brazil has the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases, followed by other countries, such as Ecuador, Peru, Chile, and Argentina. The governments of various countries in SAM are taking several initiatives to protect people and to control COVID-19s spread in the region through lockdowns, trade bans, and travel restrictions. These measures are expected to have a direct impact on the regions economic growth as the region would face lower export revenues, both from the drop in commodity prices and reduction in export volumes, especially to major trading partners, such as China, Europe, and North America. At present, the total number of cases in Brazil accounted for 3,627,217 out of which 115,451 total deaths are recorded. The sharp decline in the sales of various horticulture lighting products in the region due to lockdown measures is expected to directly impact the growth of the horticulture lighting market in this region. The sharp decline in business activities and product sales is expected to directly affect the growth rate of the horticulture lighting market in SAM region for the next three to four quarters.

The overall SAM horticulture lighting market size has been derived using both primary and secondary sources.To begin the research process, exhaustive secondary research has been conducted using internal and external sources to obtain qualitative and quantitative information related to the market.

The process also serves the purpose of obtaining overview and forecast for the horticulture lighting market with respect to all the segments pertaining to the region.Also, multiple primary interviews have been conducted with industry participants and commentators to validate the data, as well as to gain more analytical insights into the topic.

Growing developments in greenhouse and indoor farming techniques and soaring population are expected to accelerate the growth of the MEA horticulture lighting market.According to the latest UN estimates, the population of the MEA would see a surge by 2030.

Due to the population boom witnessed in South Africa and the UAE, the demand for food products is anticipated to rise in the next few years.This is why several countries are focusing on greenhouse and indoor farming techniques to increase their agricultural yield significantly.

Use of artificial lights for farming purposes is quite low, particularly in countries, such as South Africa.Still, with the growing popularity of horticulture and indoor crop cultivation, the horticulture lighting market is expected to pace up quickly in the near future as the farmers are adopting big data technologies, predictive analytics, Internet of things, and automation in the farming techniques.

Various developments and research initiatives taken in the horticulture field are driving the growth of the MEA horticulture lighting market. Furthermore, rise in initiatives taken by government is among the other factors expected to positively influence the demand for horticulture lighting in MEA.

Based on application, the greenhouse segment led the MEA horticulture lighting market in 2019.Greenhouses allow practicing horticulture in a protected environment, thus ensuring optimum yield.

These facilities are designed to trap and retain natural sunlight and humidity, which makes it suitable for growing diverse variety of plants.Polyhouses or polytunnels are polyethylene greenhouses.

Plants can either be grown via a conventional method that uses soil as a base or through the hydroponic technique.Plants grown in greenhouses are protected against external factors such as dirt.

Also, they can be shielded from insects and pests with proper care. Moreover, in such settings, the plants are protected from rain, hail, intense heat and sunlight, and snow. In controlled environments, including greenhouses, electric lamps are adopted to supplement sunlight and prolong lighting times to deliver horticultural crops, such as flowers, vegetables, and herbs. Modern improvements in energy-efficient LED technology are supposed to make various lighting options available for the horticulture industry. The main reason for Greenhouses success is that it is an energy efficient lighting option. These factors ultimately drives the MEA horticulture lighting market. Furthermore, the recent ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the MEA region very badly. Among the MEA countries, South Africa has faced the highest number of COVID-19 confirmed cases, which is 611,450. Other major countries that are facing the economic impact of COVID-19 include Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait. The region comprises many growing economies such as the UAE, which are prospective markets for horticulture lightning providers, owing to the huge investment in vertical farming. The COVID-19 pandemic is going to severely impact the MEA market compared to the other regions since the major problem related to declining oil prices are already affecting the economies of several oil-producing countries in MEA. Moreover, the factory lockdowns, business shutdowns, and travel bans are further aggravating the economic problems of the countries in the MEA region. Hence, the estimated decline in MEA's economic condition and impact of COVID-19 on the growth of various industries in the region are expected to negatively impact the growth of the horticulture lightning market in 2020 and 2021.

The overall MEA horticulture lighting market size has been derived using both primary and secondary sources.To begin the research process, exhaustive secondary research has been conducted using internal and external sources to obtain qualitative and quantitative information related to the market.

Research report covers the Indoor Farming Lighting Market Forecasts and Growth, 2020-2025 - The Think Curiouser

Heliospectra announced a collaboration with the Institute for Sustainable Agro-ecosystem Services (ISAS), the University of Tokyo. In an effort to redefine and unleash the potential of indoor tomato production, this will be a joint research project with the Universitys Institute for Sustainable Agro-ecosystem Services (ISAS), in collaboration with Associate Professor Wataru Yamori at the Agricultural Biology and Biogeochemistry Group, and Heliospectra Japan.

With the average age of Japanese farmers reaching 67 years old and younger generations migrating to cities, traditional farming is facing a crisis. This is forcing the country to investigate new ways to produce food. Plant factories are scaling to meet consumer food demand, mainly in vegetable cultivation in both solar and artificial light environments, and the industry is growing. Japan already has approximately 200 lettuce factories using artificial light, and that number is expected to double by 2025. However, to-date, plant factories have been unsuccessful in cultivating light-hungry vine crops such as tomatoes in indoor artificial light. Heliospectra and the University of Tokyo want to challenge this.

Working together, they are looking to build a business model for Japans plant factories and PFAL (Plant Factory with Artificial Lighting) organizations for indoor tomato cultivation. In the University lab, the Professor and his students will be using Heliospectras MITRA linear, the horticulture markets first truly modular LED light. Designed by growers for growers, MITRA is a solution for high-light crops, with high-intensity light output and electrical efficacy of up to 2.8 mol/J.

We are very excited to be a part of this research together with Dr. Yamori and the ISAS at the University of Tokyo. Over the years, Heliospectra has conducted research on lights effect on tomatoes in indoor facilities with great results, comments Yasuhiro Suzuki, General Manager of Heliospectra Japan. We now look forward to further expanding our knowledge and developing more effective indoor cultivation of tomatoes for commercial use. We look forward to collaborating with the university and sharing with the world our knowledge of growing tomatoes indoors.
