MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 07/14/14 -- Dundee Sustainable Technologies Inc. ("DST" or the "Corporation") (CSE: DST), the developer and owner of proprietary technologies to serve the natural resource sector with environmentally friendly procedures, is pleased to announce its commitment in the fertilizer business.
DST has obtained patents for the production of sulfate based fertilizers. These processes are providing a new way to the industry of producing potassium sulfate ("SOP" or K2S04) and potassium magnesium sulfate ("SOPM" or K2SO4.2MgSO4). Both products are accompanied by the production of salable hydrochloric acid as a by-product.
Sulfate based fertilisers are applied at sowing time, where ions are adsorbed in the soil and remain available and protected against leaching. The growing need to do more with less, and the sulfur deficiency in particular crops have led to an increase use of sulfate based fertilisers, while excess use of chloride based fertilisers (potassium chloride or "potash") reduces nutrient uptake and yield quantities, water soluble sulfate fertilisers such as SOP and SOPM are the most effective for growing crops.
The growing market for sulfate based fertilisers along with depleting natural sources of chloride-free potassium creates a great opportunity for DST to develop its patented processes.
DST has analyzed a project to build a plant for the production of SOP using potash and sulfuric acid. Moreover, DST has received interest from a North American distributor that is ready to market the production of 50,000 tonnes per year of SOPM and could also be interested in SOP.
The current market conditions and specific demands from the fertilizer market are opening a window of opportunities to launch projects that would lead to the construction of fertilizer plants. DST's technology allows for SOP and SOPM to be produced below current market price with profit margins preliminary estimated at $410 per tonne for SOP and $225 per tonne for SOPM.
The National Research Council of Canada granted DST a $50,000 subsidy for the assessment of its fertilizer technology.
About Dundee Sustainable Technologies, a company controlled by Dundee Corporation
The cyanide and mercury free gold extraction process developed by DST, has been recognized as a "green technology" for which DST has been awarded $5,700,000 in grants to date for a demonstration plant, presently under construction in Thetford Mines Quebec of which $700,000 has been provided by the Government of Quebec and $5,000,000 by the Government of Canada through the Sustainable Development Technology Fund. The plant is scheduled to go into operation in mid-January 2015.
Over the last ten years DST has tested over 50 different gold deposits, both oxide and sulfide ores at the lab level and at its pilot plant. These tests have, consistently achieved gold recoveries in excess of 90%, using chlorination instead of cyanide. In addition, the tailings from the process are inert from toxic substances and as result meet environmental norms. An engineering study completed within the last 12 months supports DST's claim of having operated a pilot plant showing a gold extraction yield higher than 90% using a closed-circuit chlorination process.

In a recent survey of IT pros, not only did cloud computing rank as a top three technology both as most disruptive and as most significant to business over the past three to five years, but it ranked as the number one technology investment most needed for businesses to remain competitive in the next three to five years.
In short, the cloud is here, and it's here to stay. We're naturally seeing many enterprises move to the cloud, at least in a hybrid traditional computing-cloud approach (for now). As more cloud-based services are born, the shift will only accelerate. This begs the question, what does all this mean for today's IT pro?
Does the cloud mean the end of the IT pro?
The rise and adoption of cloud services fundamentally changes the role of the IT professional. Some even argue that the demand for particular IT jobs may disappear altogether. That may sound ominous, but some aspects of IT will indeed change and many things IT pros do today will go away. Some companies may get to the point where they have to ask themselves if enough of the IT infrastructure remains on premise to justify maintaining current internal IT roles.
However, IT will not go extinct because of the shift to the cloud. In fact, it presents IT pros with an opportunity to do something absolutely critical to business success and that no one else is in a better position to do: manage and integrate these cloud services into existing business systems. This will be key for IT pros who want to remain relevant in the new services-based world.
Become cloud leaders
To remain relevant, IT pros must embrace the cloud, not be afraid of it. Business leaders have become more tech-savvy, yes, but they lack the IT skills needed to navigate the transition from traditional computing to cloud computing. This is where today's IT pro can step up as a leader in the new cloud environment, but it will take work.
Leveraging cloud services is not the same as delivering similar services from on-premise systems. In some cases, like IaaS and PaaS, IT pros will have to learn new ways of creating and deploying systems and applications. With a hybrid approach, IT pros will be challenged with managing a unified system running on different infrastructure in different places. For SaaS, the challenge will largely revolve around ensuring performance with only the data and management options provided by the vendor along with integration of the information provided by that vendor with other cloud or on premise systems to meet business objectives.
In light of these challenges and a few others, here are several steps IT pros need to take to survive in the services-based world:
- Understand cloud services and technologies: As a starting point, IT pros need to know the key cloud services options available - SaaS, PaaS and IaaS. But it's not enough just to understand the options, it's important to determine what options work best for the business. For example, a small business that uses standard applications may benefit from SaaS, but larger enterprises that use a multitude of applications both standard and custom may benefit from a combination of services such as IaaS and PaaS. IT pros need to empower themselves to build and implement these solutions while also ensuring they're operating at optimal performance levels.
- Ensure proper application and system integration: IT pros need to develop new skills around integrating cloud services with existing internal business systems or other cloud services to meet company-specific needs. If a company plans to primarily use cloud in a hybrid approach, IT pros will need to understand both their traditional job, how a related SaaS, IaaS or PaaS solution works and how to integrate them.
- Become an IT security guru: While the cloud isn't necessarily less secure than on-premise systems, the security implications and risks of the cloud are slightly different. IT pros will need to learn the different cloud design models and related security tools available to help build a strong solution and increase confidence from business leaders.
- Develop business skills: Understanding cloud technologies, their security implications and how to integrate applications and systems is crucial. Yet, IT pros need to take it to the next level and ensure IT priorities align with business objectives and needs. This skill is especially important as SaaS-type applications allow more IT decisions to be made by business people without the current levels of dependency on IT. Being able to understand the implementation, operations, management, integration and security of cloud systems in context of business requirements will be a valuable skill indeed.
Cloud computing is only one of the many emerging technologies impacting the way IT works today, but it is perhaps the most pervasive. IT pros must remain nimble, learning new skills and adapting to new technology trends while also understanding how these trends align with business strategies. This will empower IT pros to continually adapt their role and take a seat at the table as business bottom lines become increasingly reliant on technology.

I am desperate for a new TV, but am conscious about how expensive the freeview+ recording boxes are. I was wondering if anyone knew whether you can by a small TV (for my bedroom) that has this inbuilt or anyway to record freeview channels on it, if so which make as I'm struggling to find one, but that could be because I'm not looking in the right place!

US 2069154 A Abstract available in Claims available in Description (OCR text may contain errors) Patented Jan. 26, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application April 16, 2 Claims. This invention is a device for completing a circuit through an electrical signal of either the visual or audible type whereby to indicate low pressure in a pressure line of any suitable character. The invention together with its objects and advantages will be best understood from a study of the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein: Figure l is an elevational view illustrating the application of the invention to a pressure line. Figure 2 is an enlarged sectional view through the device taken substantially on the line 2--2 of Figure 1. Figure 3 is an exploded view of a cylinder and spring contact member hereinafter more fully referred to. Referring to the drawing by reference numerals it will be seen that 5 indicates generally a pressure line through which water, air or the like is forced under pressure. In accordance with the present invention there is interposed in the line 5 a casing 6 preferably of cylindrical form and provided at one end with a nipple 1 adapted to thread into a section of the line 5, and at a relatively opposite end with a screw cap 8 provided with a nipple 9 adapted to be threaded into a second section of the line 5 as suggested in Figure 1. In the preferred embodiment thereof cap 8 has formed integral therewith and projecting inwardly therefrom a nipple III that has a threaded extremity on to which is screw-threaded one end of a cylinder I I of bakelite, hard rubber or a any other suitable non-conductive material. At the connected ends thereof nipple I0 and easing II are provided with registering ports I2 as shown in Figure 2 so as to permit at all times a flow of fluid through the line to the end that the air gauge (not shown) with which such line is usually provided will register pressure at all times even though the pressure be below a predetermined amount, that is to say even though the pressure has fallen to such an extent as will, in a manner hereinafter more fully set out, permit a closing of the circuit through the electrically operable signal device. A contact disk I4 of conductive material has a sliding fit within the cylinder II and is normally urged into engagement with the inner end of the nipple I0 which is also of conductive material through the medium of a suitably provided and arranged coil spring I5. Preferably spring I5 has its respective opposite ends anchored in any suitable manner to 1936, Serial No. 74,771 the contact disk I 4 and caps I3 so that these parts may be handled as a unit. The nipple IIJ together with the casing and associated parts is arranged in an electrical circuit involving an electrically operable signal I6 5 as suggested in Figure 1 which may be in the form of a bell, a light, or both and which circuit is controlled by a main switch I'I, preferably. As shown in Figure 1 the cap I3, contact disk I4 and spring I5 which are of conductive mate- 10 rial are electrically connected with one side of the battery 13 or other suitable source of electrical supply through the medium of a wire I8 that is connected at one end with a terminal bolt 20 provided on and insulated from the closed end 15 of the casing 6. Secured to the bolt 20 is a conductor member 2| of metal or other suitable material which at one end bears against the cap I3 as clearly shown in Figure 2. One side of the signal I6 is grounded while 20 the other side is connected with the switch I I one side of which is also electrically connected through the medium of a wire 22 and terminal bolt 23 with the casing Ii. From the above it will be seen that when 25 there is a predetermined pressure in the line 5 contact disk I4 will be normally held out of engagement with the nipple I0 and against the action of spring I5. However, upon a fall of pressure spring I5 will force contact member I4 into engagement with the threaded end of the nipple I I] thus completing the circuit through the attachment (switch I! being closed) and the electrically operable signal element I6 whereby the latter is actuated for giving a signal to the 35 end that one may be apprised of the fact that there has been a fall of pressure in the line 5. As shown in Figure 1 casing 6 may be suitably provided as at 24 whereby the same may be suitably anchored in position or attached to a sup- 40 port as found desirable. It is thought that a clear understanding of the construction, utility and advantages of a device of this character will be had without a more detailed description. Having thus described the invention what is claimed as new is: 1. A signal circuit closure for disposition with a pressure line for closing a circuit upon a fall of pressure in said line, and comprising a casing adapted to be disposed within the line, said casing being of conductive material and adapted to be electrically connected to one side of the signal circuit, said casing having a nipple extending inwardly thereof, a cylinder of non-conduc- 2 tive material connected with the inner end of said nipple, a contact member having a sliding fit Within said cylinder, spring means engaged with said contact member and tending to normally urge the same into engagement with said nipple for completing the signal circuit, and means for placing said contact member in electrical connection with one side of the source of electrical energy. 2. In a device of the character described a casing provided at one end with an inlet nipple, and at its relatively opposite end with an outlet nipple, said casing having internally thereof a nipple extending inwardly from and in alignment with said inlet nipple, said casing and internal nipple being formed of conductive material, a cylinder of non-conductive material threadedly engaged with one end of the internal nipple, a contact member having a sliding fit within said casing and adapted to move into engagement with said internal nipple for completing an electrical circuit, a cap of conductive material engaged with the free end of said cylinder, a spring of conductive material connected at one end of said contact member and at a relatively opposite end with the first-named cap, a conductor member having an end engaged with the last-named cap, and a terminal bolt securing the relatively opposite end of the conductor member to one end of said casing, said terminal bolt being insulated from said casing.

Black and White 2 on next-generation?
Vocal British game designer Peter Molyneux has been waxing lyrical this week about the prospect of Black and White 2 on the Playstation 3 or the Xbox 360. The real-time strategy god-simulation is well advanced in its development for the PC, but Molyneux admitted that porting the game would technically be little trouble. He also revealed that Lionhead are already hard at work on other projects for both the previously mentioned next-generation consoles. "The machines have the power to do Black & White 2. The only problem is the control," he commented.
"We'd have to go right back to the drawing board, as we've not got a mouse. What we did with the mouse is say, 'we've got 2 buttons, a middle wheel and that's it' - we haven't got a keyboard (in theory, although we have shortcuts). If you're going to do it on the next generation machines, we have to take a new look. It's the freedom of picking stuff up with a mouse, and you have to change it. We're thinking about it though."
A sequel to RPG Fable is expected to be among Lionhead's other next-generation projects, though The Movies could also be a possibility as well as of course new prospects dreamed-up by the ever-ambitious Molyneux. Development kits are already being used to create 'other games', the designer affirms mysteriously. More soon.

Intel reveals plans for forthcoming notebook chips
Intel Corp. has just released plans for its mobile computing platform through the second quarter of 2007, which will include a new notebook processor with an 800MHz front-side bus.According to a report by the microchip hounds at DailyTech, the world's largest chipmaker will introduce its next-generation of its "Merom" notebook processor — the successor to the Yonah chip found in Apple Computer's current line of Intel Macs — in two waves or "refreshes."
The first is expected to appear in August as part of Intel's existing "Napa" Centrino platform. It will be based on the company's 65-nanometer process and run on a 667MHz front-side bus. Intel previously announced that it will market these chips under the "Core 2 Duo" brand.
A second refresh of the Core 2 Duo Merom chip will reportedly show up in the second quarter of 2007 as part of Santa Rosa Centrino, the successor to Intel's Napa Centrino platform. This chip is said to sport an 800MHz front-side bus and add a new socket design called "Socket P."
Merom will initially be made available in five different variants ranging from 1.66GHz dual-core to 2.33GHz dual-core. The low-end model will cost approximately $209 while the high-end 2.33GHz chip will initially fetch $637. A mid-range 2GHz model will come in just shy of $300.
The first wave of Merom chips are expected to begin making their way into Apple's high-end MacBook Pro notebooks this fall as part of a seasonal refresh just prior to the holiday shopping season.

Ponytail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is all.
Nuff said, Kairan. I rocked a lot of hair back then. Now I pretend I'm civilized and get a "normal" haircut. I turned 40; what can I say?
I prefer to think of it as turning 20, again. I just turned 16 for the second time, and so far I'm doing it SO much better than I did the first time! My friends are around 32, and damn, they're just OLD.
Perspective my friend:)
Sometimes I'm 15 for the 2 2/3 time... or is it 4/4 time?
Sweet! You look like a young Ted Nugent, but with a bass and darker hair.

Governors' Garden : Michelin's recommendations
This small park beside the Château Frontenac was created in the mid-17C for the enjoyment of the governor-general of New France. The Wolfe-Montcalm Monument (1827) is a joint memorial to the two enemies who died in combat and, as was observed at the time, whose meeting resulted in the creation of the Canadian nation. The shape of the monument symbolizes death: note the cenotaph forming the base of the structure and, particularly, the dignified obelisk. The inscription reads in translation from Latin: "Valour gave them a common death, history a common fame, posterity a common monument".

Save on Utility Bills
Did you know the average family spends over $1600 a year on utility bills alone? Here are some simple steps you can take to not only save energy but also put some money back in your pocket.
Put your thermostat to work
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recommends setting your air conditioner at 74 degrees and your furnace at 68 degrees. Investing in a programmable thermostat is a good idea. Set the thermostat to be warmer or colder when you are not home. Reduce the difference in temperature between the inside and the outside of the home to help save energy and money.
Invest in energy-efficient appliances
You may notice now that washers, dryers, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, air conditioners, and computers now come with Energy Star labels which mean they are energy efficient. Energy Star appliances will save you money over older appliances.
Computers, stereos, toasters, and other appliances draw energy even when they are turned off. A large LCD or plasma TV consumes about 400 watts of energy when in use and 4 watts when not in use. Using a surge protector will help reduce energy costs. Plug your appliances into a surge protector and turn off the protector when appliances are not in use.
Seal it up
A well-insulated house is a way to save money on heat and cooling costs. First, start by adding insulation to the attic floor. Next, make sure to fill in any holes in exterior walls especially where pipes come in and around windows and doors. Lastly, wrap hot water pipes with insulation.
Slow the flow
Install low-flow fixtures to conserve water on your shower, faucets and toilets. Also remember to repair leaky faucets and toilets and turn off the water when brushing your teeth and scrubbing dishes.

Seeds - Soils - Mulch
The perfect landscape starts with the perfect soil. Potting soils provide a loose, well-draining planting medium. The next step is to choose the right grass seeds to plant. Grass seeds are available in different varieties for different climates. Choosing the right grass for your climate is essential. Un-blended grasses do well in warm season southern states where temperatures typically exceeds 80°F. In cool season states, a blend of permanent grasses is best. Landscaping mulch will increase plant life and the appearance of your landscape.

Typhoon Haiyan, a storm of historic proportions, has devastated the largely impoverished population of the Philippines.
By Nick Anderson —
Yeb Saño choked up while speaking at the international climate conference in Warsaw in the wake of Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), which is estimated to have killed more than 10,000 people: "I speak for the countless people who will no longer be able to speak for themselves after perishing from the storm."
Pat Bagley, Cagle Cartoons, Salt Lake Tribune —
AP/Bullit Marquez
Potentially the most powerful typhoon on record, Haiyan swept across the Philippines on Friday and is heading for Vietnam, leaving a massive wake of death and destruction. But wait for the death toll—early reports rarely bear up.
