"...The MSc in Technology Management offered both flexibility and structure by setting out a clear timetable from the very start of year 1, which outlined the content of the modules and the examination methods. Module assessment enabled me to analyse and improve on everyday work practices, in addition to opening discussions with company employees and managers. The overall course content was sufficiently comprehensive to greatly help me s set up my own technology led company..."

"This masters programme has much to commend it. In particular I found the application of theory to real company case studies developed my own critical thinking and facilitated the transfer of that knowledge to my own work and performance. The work was challenging, yet always interesting".

Comic Book Resources Exclusive!
A year and a half ago, writer and digital comics advocate Mark Waid became part owner of Alter Ego Comics of Muncie, Indiana. Today, he is announcing a major change for the store, and in this exclusive interview, he opens up about the lessons he's learned from his involvement in both the direct market and digital distribution.
The writer of numerous popular series, including "Daredevil," "S.H.I.E.L.D.," and the soon-to-be rebooted "Archie," Mark Waid partnered with John Rogers in 2012 to launch the digital comics platform Thrillbent, which hosts his work and that of others. Since then, he has spent the past three years experimenting with different digital formats and platforms.
In 2013 he added another venture when he became co-owner, with Christy Blanch and Jason Pierce, of Alter Ego Comics. They soon teamed up with another creator-owned comic shop, Aw Yeah Comics of Skokie, Illinois, which was founded by "Tiny Titans" team of Art Baltazar and Franco and business manager Marc Hammond.
Today, Waid is announcing that he and Blanch are reincorporating Alter Ego Comics under a new name, Aw Yeah Comics Muncie. They will continue to be co-owners of the store, although, as with the last store, are trading a percentage of the business for a share in Art and Franco's Skokie store.
CBR News spoke with Waid about the new changes, and what he's learned about the industry through his experiences as both a brick-and-mortar retailer and a digital distributor.

Skokie, IL – December 12, 2014 – Mego Museum in conjunction with Aw Yeah Comics is pleased to announce that Mego Meet 2015 will be held June 5th and 6th at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Chicago – North Shore Conference Center. Registration information for vendors and attendees will be posted on the Mego Meet 2015 page at megomuseum.com in the coming weeks.
For the past ten years, the annual Mego Meet made its home in Wheeling, WV. It was clear after Mego Meet 10 that maximum density had been surpassed in Wheeling and that a change of venue was in order. The move to Skokie, IL. will allow for easy access for those travelling by plane, as well as provide a myriad of options for family entertainment. The facilities at DoubleTree offer award-winning guest rooms and event space for presenters, vendors, and attendees.
Perhaps the most exciting byproduct of the new location is that it makes possible a partnership with Aw Yeah Comics, located in beautiful downtown Skokie. Eisner Award-winning artist and co-owner Art Baltazar will be in attendance with the entire Aw Yeah gang. Art is a long-time Mego Meet attendee and is thrilled to host the Meet in it's new home.
As in years past, Mego Meet 2015 will feature dealer rooms packed full of vintage toys; presentations by collectors, customizers, and toy companies dealing in the classic 8″ "Mego scale;" a customs contest; and an auction to benefit the Mego Museum. The addition of Aw Yeah Comics will add another dimension that will diversify and improve what is already a great annual event.

Roberto Mancini 'just ignored players from day one at Man City'
Roberto Mancini's relationship with his players was to blame for his exit as Manchester City manager, according to former defender Danny Mills.
"What has gone against him is his man- management style. There are issues other than the performance that have undermined him.
"When you look at the flashpoints Mancini has had this season, that gives you an indication of the difference in holistic approach that City are looking for."
Mancini, 48, was sacked on Monday after three-and-a-half years in charge.
City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak said the club needed to "develop a holistic approach to all aspects of football at the club".
"There wasn't the togetherness between player and manager," Mills told BBC Radio 5 live.
"Basically, Mancini just ignored players from day one. He was the manager, he made decisions, he made no attempt to have any sort of relationship with the players, didn't take them under his wing. It was very much, 'I'm the manager, I'll do my thing, I'll pick the team and then I'll disappear'.
"You speak to the players and you know there's a lot of discontent in that dressing room. They'll say it wasn't a particularly happy camp at times, there were a lot of different factions in that dressing room."
Mancini's City spats
- March 2013: Says he would like "to punch" Samir Nasri after a 4-0 win over Newcastle
- March 2013: Joe Hart says criticism makes him feel Mancini does not believe he is "up to it" on occasions
- March 2013: Criticises captain Vincent Kompany for playing for Belgium while injured
- January 2013: Photographed having a 'bust-up' with Mario Balotelli on the training ground. Later sells Balotelli to AC Milan
- October 2012: Defends his tactical switches after Micah Richards raised concerns about playing with three centre-backs. "What Micah said is not important"
- September 2012: Tells goalkeeper Joe Hart to stop criticising the team, insisting he is the only "judge"
- April 2012: Says he will sell Mario Balotelli after his red card against Arsenal, saying: "I don't have any words for his behaviour"
- February 2012: Carlos Tevez accuses Mancini of treating him "like a dog"
- September 2011: Says he wants Carlos Tevez "out of the club" after the striker allegedly refused to play against Bayern Munich. Tevez does not play for the club for five months
Mancini, who signed a new five-year deal last summer having won the Premier League title, has been involved in a number of high-profile altercations with his players since he replaced Mark Hughes in December 2009.
The Italian's most notable quarrel was in January when he was involved in a training-ground bust-up with Italy striker Mario Balotelli. Photos showed the pair having to be separated by staff and team-mates at Carrington training ground.
Mancini also clashed with Carlos Tevez. In September 2011, Mancini said the Argentine was "finished" at the club after accusing him of refusing to play as a substitute in the Champions League game against Bayern Munich.
After a disciplinary hearing, fines, a suspension, an unauthorised return to Argentina and an apology, Tevez returned to the City fold five months later.
There were further instances of unrest between manager and players.
Midfielder Samir Nasri criticised Mancini after the manager claimed he wanted to "punch" the Frenchman for his inconsistent displays earlier this year, while goalkeeper Joe Hart was rebuked for criticising the side following a 3-2 Champions League loss at Real Madrid in September.
Mills added: "You need to understand the players, you need to know what makes them tick. You have never heard the players come out and back their manager and that sticks in the mind.
"You cannot come out and criticise your players publicly. Arsene Wenger doesn't do it at Arsenal and Sir Alex Ferguson doesn't do it at Manchester United. We know he kicks boots, or gives them the hairdryer, he might even have had the odd punch-up, but in public he protects his players.
"Why didn't those top players, such as Robin van Persie, who City were linked with, go there in the summer?
"They were in the Champions League, they were the champions of England, they pay more money than anybody else. Why would you not go there unless it wasn't a happy place to be?"
The sacked trophy winners
Mancini's sacking means the Premier League's major trophy winners from 2011-12 have now all been sacked. League Cup-winner Kenny Dalglish was dismissed by Liverpool last May and FA Cup and Champions League-winner Roberto di Matteo by Chelsea in November. In addition, Championship-winner Brian McDermott was sacked by Reading in March.
That view was endorsed by BBC Radio 5 live's senior football reporter Ian Dennis.
"What has gone against him is his man-management style," said Dennis.
"It is other issues other than performance which have undermined him. When you look at the flashpoints that Mancini has had this season, that gives you an indication of the difference in holistic approach that City are looking for."
Former City player Kit Symons told BBC Radio 5 live that he believed an element of stability would benefit the club.
"I don't want City to go down that road and become like that, where managers come and go at the drop of a hat," he said. "Long-term success is what clubs and fans want, rather than this short-term fix of changing the manager as soon as they don't win a trophy for a season."
Kevin Parker of the Manchester City supporters club expressed his disappointment at Mancini's departure.
"City fans are particularly upset, not just with the manner in which this has been dealt with, but also the day that he has been sacked," he said.
"The 13th of May should be a day that is remembered for lots of fantastic reasons, including winning the Premier League for the first time in 44 years, and now it has been associated with the sacking of our second most successful manager ever."
Assistant Brian Kidd will take charge for the final two games of the season - against Reading on Tuesday and Norwich on Sunday - as well as the summer tour to the United States.
Malaga's Chilean coach Manuel Pellegrini has been strongly tipped to replace Mancini.
After Saturday's shock FA Cup final defeat by Wigan, Mancini criticised City for failing to publicly deny media reports identifying former Real Madrid coach Pellegrini as his likely replacement.

Newbie brewer here... Any reason why I shouldn't transfer an overly sweet 11 litre cider that is waaaay too sweet into a 23 litre carboy that I will top up with fresh pressed juice? The og was 1080 and a week later it is 1060 but way too sweet. Hoping that transferring and adding will mellow this out a bit...
Yes, there is a very goods reason why you shouldn't do it: you need the yeast to do their job (fermenting) to get rid of the sweetness, but transferring = getting the brew off the yeast and leaving it behind. So transferring now will have the opposite effect of what you want.
You only ever transfer once fermentation is complete. Not complete = don't transfer.
It's bubbling away just fine - one bubble every 1.5 seconds. Was just overwhelmed at how sweet it was. Using lactose in conjunction with brown sugar. Was surprised at how sweet it was...
as it ferments out the yeast "eat" the sugar and therefore when it's done fermenting it won't be anywhere as sweet as it is now. Just give it some time. I have a 5 gallon batch going right now that will be in the primary fermenter for about a month before I transfer to the secondary. And you're right, 1.060 is really sweet, but like I said give it some time.......
My last batch of 5.5 gallons of cider, took a good 20 days to ferment from 1.079 -> 1.000, just be patient. When the bubbles start to slow down a ton, like 2 per minute, then take a gravity reading. If it's bubbling a ton, the yeast are still going strong.
Go Spartans!!http://www.youtube.com/MrSparty1995
Thanks for the reassurance, first time using Maltodextrin for mouthfeel which has changed the taste of it for me as well.
Off to the farm to grab 23 litres to start some more.
Appreciate all the help. My wife calls you all my "home brew homies" seeing as I've been visiting this site non-stop the past few weeks.
Sorry, it was 1/2 kilo (1pound) of maltodextrin with 2 pounds brown sugar. Seeing as this is a 3 gallon batch, it might be too much?
That should leave you with something like 1.015 which would be sweet but not syrupy. I don't know a whole lot about the "sweetness" of lactose though. Someone with more experience might chime in.

110 years coming to an end
It kind of saddens me to be taking the pry bar and sledge to the kitchen after it has stood essentially unchanged for 110 years, but the kitchen has exhausted it's usefulness and needs updating. The most recent addition to the kitchen is probably the sink which I imagine is 1950's.
The stove will be staying, and the light fixture will also be reused. The Westinghouse fridge (Sulfur Dioxide refrigerant) is not large enough to accommodate our growing family, so it must go. It is being replaced with a early 1990's Traulsen that I am having rebuilt with new compressors and r134a refrigerant.
I have acquired a vintage drain-board sink with an apron to replace the one that is currently in place (chipped and cracked). I will be custom building the base cabinet in my wood shop. We will be installing a 1200 CFM vent hood (cleaning grease off the ceiling has gotten tiresome). The stove wall and back splash is getting a white and blue talavera tile, and the black and white asbestos floor tiles are getting replaced with French ceramic tiles from Terramano Co.
The vintage china cabinet is getting carefully removed, paint stripped, and will be placed on the left wall. I will be building cabinets to match the same style that are about 3 glass panes in height instead of 4, and the lower cabinets will have a butcher block counter (I had considered copper, but I managed to acquire salvaged bowling alley lanes that will make beautiful counters).
In addition to tile, the stove side wall will also be framed out to accommodate modern construction features such as vented plumbing, and GFCI receptacles (note the complete absence of plugs in the current kitchen).
I will also probably be adding several can lights, and be putting up powder coated white tin ceiling.
Hopefully the new kitchen will last 110 years.

Sounds like it'll be 110 years YOUNG :) Your plans sound wonderful, keeping all the best and making it work. (I hope you're keeping the curly-mop at the table, too, who matches the style perfectly)
Do you have to take any precautions when removing asbestos tile?
What a fabulous kitchen (the old one). We just about finished our reno of our 100+ kitchen. I kept all of our old cabinets, which I love, unfortunately nothing else in the kitchen was old.
I love your plans, too bad about the fridge, it is a beauty. I hope you rethink the idea of canned lights in an old kitchen; the two just don't mix well and I think they may ruin the look of your tin ceiling. We put in school house lights and a five-light vintage looking fixture and our kitchen is very brightly lit!
It's sad to see a vintage kitchen go, but it sounds like you are planning to preserve the style as best you can while making it more functional.
What are your plans for the old fridge? I'm not sure if there are collectors for such things, but it would be unfortunate for it to go to a dump if there are folks who would want it. I've seen fridges from 1950, and yours looks older.
Not my first time renovating old kitchens. I did this for a living for a number of years (hence the kitchen looking as good as it does). For asbestos tile, I mix white glue and water and soak the whole floor. Then I use a floor scraper, and wear an N95 or better mask, and have plenty of ventilation. The tiles don't have very much of the dangerous stuff in it, and the glue solution keeps the dust down (have a spray bottle handy to add more as you go). Contrary to popular belief, asbestos is nearly everywhere. It was used in very many products for centuries. If you live in an old house, it is very likely you have asbestos (and lead) around you. Compared to smoking, exhaust from automobiles, artificial flavors/colors, aspartame, etc, this risk is very very small. Obviously, construction makes dust that is many orders of magnitude more dangerous, but if you take precautions to keep dust down, and protect yourself, it is HIGHLY unlikely that you will suffer complications due to these materials.
That said, the blonde little cutie will NOT be around during the demolition.
Charming vintage kitchen, but I understand. The stove is for sure a wonderful character. I'm still on the hunt for a clock/thermometer accessory for my old Magic Chef. The holes are there from when one sat atop it but who knows what happened to it.
Can't wait for your reveal.
The fridge is a 1931 Westinghouse "Night watchman". It pre-dates the GE monitor tops. Sulfur Dioxide refrigerant can be lethal. No refrigerant guy will touch it since there is no procedure for collection of the refrigerant, and no legal way of disposing of it. It would cost several thousand dollars to have it retrofitted with a new system (assuming I do something crazy like drag it outside and shoot it to get rid of the refrigerant). Thermostat is mercury. Dangerous appliance overall, but it was the first of its kind. I had considered sending it to a company out west that claims to refurb them, but they quote close to $8k. Size just isn't conducive to spending the money. I may keep it in the basement as a novelty, but not practical or safe for regular kitchen use.
So glad you are preserving what you can in your historic kitchen.
However, I second using schoolhouse lights rather than cans. Not only do they suit a period kitchen, they give off plenty of good light, which is why they lasted so long. Also, because of their shape, I am able to use corn type LED's in mine.
Was the existing chandelier always located in the kitchen?
Hello All,
Thank you for the input about the lighting. I will try to figure out how to work school house lights into the design without the room being crowded by light fixtures.
The original kitchen light fixture probably resembled these:
These are original light fixtures around the house. Interestingly they were both gas and electric by design. Electricity was not added later. These were wired in to the original knob and tube wiring which was installed when the house was built (recently replaced with romex-lots of plaster work). Apparently people were not sure if they wanted to pay for gas or electric.
There is a single gas connection in the kitchen ceiling, so there was probably no other lighting in the room. I have no idea when this other fixture was added, but it looks 20's.
Good luck and post pics along the way. We remodeled our 100 yr old home's kitchen this year, making it ore practical, open, and conducive to today's living styles. We live in an historic district and often see the struggles with restoration vs. remodeling. Unless you want to live in a museum, remodel and use some of the original items to keep touch with the home's past, like the lights.
Those are lovely fixtures. There's an interesting article here about the dual fixtures:
Also, schoolhouse fixtures are available in many different mounting options, many can be mounted quite close to the ceiling, for less visual clutteredness, such as these:

Guns the *new* Wedge IssueSubmitted by OctoBox on Thu, 01/10/2013 - 20:32
The title needs work -- rather than "new" it could be "renewed" as the debate is as old as abortion.
If we resolve one wedge issue (has never happened once in all US History - that I know of) between Libs and Pubs will that lead to total free-market society? Obviously no.
1) Wedge issues keep voters from uniting on issues they agree (or could agree on) -- Divided and Conquered - On issues that are not wedge issues (like End the Fed). The example of Moore and the Bush kid arguing against Big Pharma is a good example; it's not a wedge issue.
2) Voting has not worked to beget a Free-Market (ever). Voting is the only vehicle to decide the fate of a wedge issue.
3) Voting (to solve wedge issues and beget a free-society) is not likely to work (ever) because Wedge Issues are Onerous to dislodge once in the Communal Psyche -AND- because voting is an abdication of rule through consumptive choices in the market economy (it's a work-around a cheat - it IS the circumvention of another's consumptive choices).
Why get "worked-up" if the issue at hand and the offered participation (to end it, protect it, or expand on it) will only lead to Bigger Gov't (voting, lobbying, legislation) -- why feed-the-machine (media / lobbyists / politicians)?
We have 320M guns in America (according to Stefan M) and those guns have not won us a free-market -- a free-market is a consumer-sovereignty and guns are just one good, in the market economy. You can't liberate all markets by the exclusive or predominate use of one market good -- I hope that's logical.
They can control water, electricity, fuel, and the supply chain. If you count most elderly, children, special needs, people in hospitals, people siding with gov't, and those living in geographically blocked off regions -- the gov't controls most Americans (or that most Americans pose no real threat). The few roaming free can either be ignored, herded, or just inconvenienced (never under estimate the power of convenience) -- without the need to kill one civilian.
No wedge issue, once resolved, can eliminate the creation of new wedge issues, nor can they cure other wedge issues still pending. There's no Unified Wedge Issue.
"End the Fed" is not a Wedge Issue (by-the-by) as most still do not understand what that means or how to go about it.
Wedge Issue Examples:
Guns - Abortion - Healthcare - Education - Gov't Salaries - Marriage
Which one of those, if you got Libs and Pubs to agree to a solution would cure all others? Is there one case in US History where a "Wedge Issue" was fully resolved (even for one full year)?
Try and Remember: Piers Morgan and Obama are selling more guns than any Pub in US History -- Libs sell more guns, period. Like gun-pimps. Just talking about gun control drives sales through the roof, hahahaha.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: FuzzyOCR
The latest trend is to hide spam in images. The admin's response: an OCR tool that extracts the texts and feeds them to the spam filter.
If you run Spamassassin, the Fuzzy-OCR plugin is a good choice of image evaluation tool. FuzzyOCR isn't hard to install, except for having to fulfill a few dependencies. Make sure your version of Spamassassin is as up-to-date as possible; it should be anyway, of course, but version 3.1.4 is a must. You also need the NetPBM tools, from the Imagemagick convert binary, Giflib, two Perl modules, and gocr for optical character recognition.

Letter from Our President - Winter 2013
It's often the simplest moments in life that we take for granted—a hug from a child, sitting down with our families for a meal, or sharing laughter with family and friends. Yet for many families of children with severe behavioral or feeding disorders, chronic pain, and other disorders and injuries, these moments are difficult to come by. For these families, Kennedy Krieger is often the place they turn to when hope is all but lost.
In this issue, you'll read about families who came to Kennedy Krieger for the care they couldn't find anywhere else. When Luke McNair was in the third grade, his behavioral problems grew so severe that he was breaking windows with his head and hitting his three-year-old brother. His parents became so desperate that they considered making him a ward of the state, until a doctor recommended Kennedy Krieger's neurobehavioral unit as a last resort. They flew across the country to get him the treatment he needed, and Luke emerged a "ten-times-better version of himself," according to his mother.
When 13-year-old Perry Zimmerman needed intense physical therapy after surgery for osteosarcoma left her without the ability to walk, her family traveled to Kennedy Krieger because it was the only rehabilitation facility that offered what she needed.
And after Katie Bickford suffered debilitating chronic pain that left her unable to walk or attend school, an expert recommended the Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Program at Kennedy Krieger; today, Katie is a regular teenager again.
All of these families turned to us for the expertise to help their children heal, and we gave them life-changing treatment. We are proud to play a role in helping these and so many other families get their lives back.

When the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts polled audiences about potential bookings in 2010, I responded with a list of artists I'd like to hear at the beautiful new building. My suggestions included Ornette Coleman, Charlie Haden, Keith Jarrett, Sonny Rollins and Cassandra Wilson.
What was I thinking?
Kansas Citians would rather buy tickets to concerts by the likes of Max Raabe and the Palast Orchester. The German retro-swing band will knock 'em dead at Helzberg Hall on Tuesday, April 7.

Concert Review: The Noah Preminger Quartet at 55 Bar
After taking in two hours of arias at Carnegie Hall, I wasn't up for a musical nightcap at another pricey and formal venue during a brief visit to New York City last week.
I longed for something gritty and informal. I found it at 55 Bar in Greenwich Village. Noah Preminger led a quartet in a fierce performance that matched the ambiance of the dark and dingy basement venue.
About 25 people heard the tenor saxophonist, trumpeter Billy Buss, bassist Kim Cass and drummer Ian Froman open the second set with a harmolodic fury capable of startling Ornette Coleman.
Preminger's intensity validated his status as one of the most exciting young saxophonists of the new millennium.
Buss demonstrated why he beat out Kansas City's Hermon Mehari in taking second place at last year's Thelonious Monk International Jazz Trumpet Competition. Cass and Froman went full throttle for much of the 45-minute set.
I'm pleased that the majority of Kansas City's young jazz musicians are mindful of the mainstream tradition. I'd be even happier if a few of them revealed an affinity for the adventurous likes of Coleman and Don Cherry.

Concert Review: Dojo at the Green Lady Lounge
I attended the first set of a performance by Dojo last week partly because I was curious to discover how loud it would get at the Green Lady Lounge.
The decibel level- potent but not painful- was just right.
Brian Baggett shredded. An appealing combination of Grant Green, Allan Holdsworth and Eddie Van Halen, the guitarist is a technical monster.
I already knew that Baggett was a master musician, but the fluidity of bassist Chris Handley floored me. Ridiculously accomplished, Handley's playing was almost as speedy as Baggett's. Drummer Luke Stone rounded out the ensemble.
As suggested in Plastic Sax's review of Dojo's 2013 album Road Trip, the trio plays propulsive fusion. Here's representative footage from a January show at the Green Lady Lounge.
About 25 people attended the set. That's not bad for a Tuesday night. Even so, I know that there are thousands more fusion and metal fans in the area who would lose their minds if exposed to Baggett's aggressive attack with Dojo.

The Burj al Arab is beyond compare when it comes to service and a feeling of absolute luxury. We ate at the al mahara seafood restaurant which is worth the trip alone, but the butler service and hotel staff go out of their way to make sure everything is perfect , which is was the whole time we were there. - Anonymous
Excellent staff, always ready to serve guests. Excellent facilities, very good planning. Kids club facilities are very good. Very clean. We would like to thank the front office manager Mr.Rahul Sharma for upgrading our rooms in the absence of 2 interconnecting rooms, as reserved. - Bulent
the rooms, service, entertainment. - Saleh
The luxury of the facilities and treatment by all the staff from bell boys to management. The room and the bed were fantastic. There is a bath that could fit in a family of four! The pool area and surrounds were very well located with excellent service poolside. Plenty of 4-5 star restaurants to choose from. Also the free shuttle from and to the hotel stopping at various places was so helpful. - Anonymous
The hotel was top notch, the service was impeccable, and the facilities were top of the line. I'm a picky traveller and it was one of the best hotel stays I have ever had. - Eric
Room - Room is beautiful, good color combinations used for bedding and curtains
View from the room was very nice as well.
Food - Iftar buffet had a lot of varierty
Beach - Private beach was good place to relax
Staff - Staff was helpful and always smiling
The office manager was helpful and provided us with complimentarty transportation when we checked out. (for the suhoor glitch).
On the whole I would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to stay there again. - Anonymous
Booked a horizon deluxe room for two nights. Staff allowed us to check in early, however were reluctant to honour late (i.e. 6pm) check out that was advertised as part of the horizon package. We had to really push for this due to an early morning flight to Oz. Otherwise staff and facilities were first class. Would definitely stay there again, especially for breakfast which was outstanding. - Anonymous
The spaciousness of the room, the comfort and quality of the bed, the friendliness of the staff, and the breakfast was terrific. - Chedomir
I was in Dubai on a 22 hr extended layover before a final 16 hour flight home and it was wonderful to have a place to sleep and leave my carry-on luggage while taking an excursion in to the city center via the metro. We never left air-conditioning while going from the airport to the Dubai mall and the Emirates mall - it was about 110 degrees outside. USE the METRO instead of a taxi - much cheaper and very easy to access in the airport. It was very convenient to get off the flight and stay in - Anonymous
We only stayed for two nights but in that time the staff made an
impression that will last with us. From the first interaction until the
last the staff were friendly, polite, helpful and accommodating. We
didn't use the restaurant however we did use room service and the
food was great. One of the days we stayed was my partners birthday and
we came back to our room and staff had left a birthday card, chocolates
and a stuffed camel. What a great hotel and we'd definitely stay
there for our next t - Anonymous

Self-Sustaining Solar Reactor Creates Clean Hydrogen 406
from the power-up dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Great, just one more think to go wrong when pimply faced teenagers wish to live in a world without zinc.
But it's pointless to speculate about its utility without knowing how much hydrogen a given unit can produce, how much that unit costs, and how much maintenance it will need.
And the four giant robot arms the operator wears don't fill me with confidence.
But if you burn hydrogen, it creates dihydrogen monoxide, a known greenhouse gas!
This is terrible!
We here at the Clean Alternative Fuels Committee see this as just too dangerous to allow and plead to the US Government to outlaw this potentially dangerous technology. We simply can not trust the public with the ability to produce Hydrogen which could lead to the creation of Mini-H bombs. We propose the advancement of existing Hybrid technology as the clean energy alternative for a successful future and is wholeheartedly endorsed by our Charter Members: Chevron, Exxon-Mobile and Shell.
You mean if we get rid of them like the Canadians plan to do? Won't that inflate the price of our thoughts by 500%? Egads! Intellectual property will be too expensive for everyone.
.. with zink oxide...making zink vapor...that zink vapor....supply of Zink Oxide again.
Are you German, perhaps?
Hydrogen stored under pressure has a considerably lower energy density compared to hydrocarbons that we use. Hydrogen is great when you look at the energy by weight, but if a tank is sitting in the back of a car, it doesn't matter whether it weighs an extra twenty kilos, what matters is how far a tank can make a car drive.
Well... one can always mix hydrogen with some carbon to store it, can't one now?
The biggest hurdle would seem to be infrastructure. It's catch 22, mass production and distribution of H2 requires a H2 market to sell to, and vica-versa. Petrol did not really have this problem, the first generation of car owners bought their fuel in cans from the local pharmacy.
Hell, that's an idea! Let's sell H2 canisters at pharmacies.
No, the obvious, cheap, easy way to store hydrogen is to mix it with oxygen. It makes a really stable compound which we could truck around, or send places in pipes.
