The Somerset County Business Partnership will host Understanding Energy Possibilities: The Focus Fusion Solstice Seminar, a presentation focused on how private research start-up Lawrenceville Plasma Physics (LPP) is using innovation to develop an operational method for providing clean, inexhaustible fusion power. LPP has already achieved record relative fusion yields at their “Focus Fusion-1” lab in Middlesex.

The seminar is scheduled for Tuesday, December 21, 2010, from 12:00 Noon to 1:00 P.M. at the offices of the Business Partnership, 360 Grove Street at Route 22 east, Bridgewater, New Jersey.

Lead scientist for LLP, Eric Lerner, will outline the challenges associated with development of fusion power. Development Director Derek Shannon will discuss the implications for New Jersey businesses and how state agencies are starting to take note. Executive Director Rezwan Razani of the Focus Fusion Society will describe what a “pro-fusion” and “post-fusion” world might look like.

Luncheon—pig’s feet, bear paws, beaver tails, and kangaroo steaks!

Platters of lark’s tongues? No, too Henry VIII I guess.

Some ideas here: http://www.secularseasons.org/december/winter_solstice.html
Baby carrots, dried fruits and nuts like in trail mix, mulled apple cider, potato salad and baked beans.
A cake decorated with Stonehenge as the past and Focus Fusion symbol for the present and future.
