Home > Press > Super Light-Weight Nano-Carbon Fiber Boat Piranha Completes Sea Trials Demonstrating Record Fuel Efficiency
The first molecularly engineered boat is the largest structure built with nano-enhanced materials created by chemists at Zyvex Technologies, a world leader in using nanomaterials to make stronger, lighter products.
Zyvex Technologies announced that its 54' boat named Piranha completed sea trials early this morning near Puget Sound in the Pacific Ocean, demonstrating record fuel efficiency. After six months of extensive testing, the Piranha completed its final sea trial - an approximate 600 nautical mile (nm) rough-weather sea test off the shores of Washington and Oregon. Piranha finished the tests in time to travel for its debut at the Sea Air Space show near Washington, DC, on April 11th.
A conventional aluminum or fiberglass boat would have consumed 50 gallons or more per hour at cruise speed, while test results prove that Piranha consumed only 12 gallons of fuel per hour while cruising at 25 knots. The Piranha demonstrates Zyvex Technologies' ability to produce products with nano-enhanced materials that are 40% stronger than metals, such as aluminum, and result in significant weight reduction and increased fuel efficiency.
Made with 21st century advanced carbon fiber infused with carbon nanotubes (CNTs), the Piranha is the first boat built with CNTs. Weighing only 8,400 pounds, compared to boats of similar size that typically weigh 40,000 pounds, the Piranha is 75% lighter, making it easier to transport and cost-effective to operate.
"Our chemists molecularly engineer better materials and our designers and engineers make the world's strongest materials more useful," says Lance Criscuolo, president of Zyvex Technologies. "Metal boats have come a long way over the past 150 years, but it's only possible to reach new standards of performance using next-generation advanced composite materials."
Piranha can travel 2,800 nm without refueling and has operated in open-ocean conditions with waves exceeding 12 feet. Russell Belden, vice president of Zyvex Technologies, notes that other similar sized vessels built from heavier materials can only travel 450 nm without refueling and have limited rough-weather performance.
"The lightweight Piranha delivers significantly better fuel efficiency and capability than any vessel this size. The most expensive part of operating a boat can be the fuel costs. Since the Piranha gets 2.5 miles per gallon going 25 knots, its operators would only spend one fourth as much on operating costs," said Belden.
The Piranha will begin demonstrations on the East Coast with an appearance at the Sea Air Space exposition. With initial sea trials complete, defense contractors are evaluating the Piranha for use as an unmanned platform with a variety of mission applications, including anti-piracy, harbor patrol, and oceanographic surveying. While in Norfolk, VA, Zyvex Technologies will also continue further integration of unmanned systems on the Piranha.
"Zyvex Technologies is redefining standards for building and designing stronger and lighter products for civilian and defense uses. Our technology, demonstrated by the Piranha, is a great option for better maritime vessels, manned and unmanned. There's nothing else on the water that has this combination of speed, efficiency, payload, and range. More and more structures will be built with our nano-enhanced advanced composites, taking industries such as marine, defense, and infrastructure to entirely new levels," says Criscuolo.

Residency rule based on distance approved by Joint Finance Committee
Madison - The Republican-dominated Joint Finance Committee tweaked Gov. Scott Walker's plan to end residency rules statewide on Thursday, opting for a distance-based rule governing police officers, firefighters or other emergency personnel.
A motion by Rep. John Nygren (R-Marinette), co-chair of the committee, was approved, 12-4, on a party-line vote.
As approved by the panel, local units of government would be allowed to establish a requirement that police, fire or emergency personnel must reside within 15 miles of the boundaries of the local government. Additionally, if the local unit of government is a county, the same rule of 15 miles would apply.
The motion was specific to three classes of employees: police, fire and emergency personnel. No provision was made for other public employees.
The measure must still be approved by the full Assembly, Senate and signed into law by Gov. Scott Walker, who first called for ending residency statewide for all local units of government.
The committee made it the last vote of the day, a reflection of the behind the scenes lobbying and arm-twisting that went on for hours inside the Capitol.
Still, the compromise measure proved to be a victory of sorts for the Milwaukee Police Association, Local 215 of the Milwaukee Professional Firefighters, and the Milwaukee Police Supervisors' Organization. Those unions have been fighting for years to end residency for police officers and firefighters.
The residency rule in Milwaukee has been law since 1938.
Republicans on the panel defeated a motion by Rep. Jon Richards (D-Milwaukee) to take the proposal out of the budget.
Sen. Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend) crossed party lines to vote in favor of Richards' motion. He said the city was "in a lot of trouble."
"I am very afraid that the actions we take today are going to be harmful to some of the nicest neighborhoods left in the city of Milwaukee," Grothman said. "If it doesn't work out right, we're not going to be able to take it back."
Sen. Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) said it seemed unfair that a person could not live where they choose to live. "I always felt that was very, very wrong," she said.
As the day wore on, Deborah Ford, the city's top labor negotiator, sent letters to the heads of the MPA and Local 215, telling them the city "stands willing, ready and able to bargain the issue of residency during the current round of bargaining."
The debate largely centered on Milwaukee, with fears being raised about city employees leaving for the suburbs and concerns about losing local control. More than 120 municipalities would have been affected by Walker's original proposal.
The League of Wisconsin Municipalities joined Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in opposing the measure, arguing that local units of government were in the best position to decide what they need for their employees. Joining the police and fire unions in Milwaukee was the Wisconsin Professional Police Association.
But Walker said employees deserved the freedom to live where they want to.
Barrett, on the other hand, injected a political dimension in the debate, saying ending residency would be a "freebie" for protective service unions because they wouldn't have to collectively bargain for it.
The three Milwaukee unions are working without contracts, all of which expired Dec. 31.

The board itself is of typical GIGABYTE design using a blue full sized ATX PCB on 6 layers. It has taken some harsh criticism in the past on not only our part but a few other sites to get GIGABYTE to do the layout right, but as of late we have nothing but praise for them.
The 24-pin power and FDD connector sit on the right hand side top edge of the board behind the DDR3 memory slots that the board supports, whilst the 4/8 pin power connector gets moved to the left top edge of the board behind the PS/2 ports and in front of the heatpipe cooler assembly, though this can make it a bit tricky to get the cable out if you ever need to swap power supplies.
The IDE controller port sits at the mid point of the right hand side edge of the board and is rotated 90 degrees which helps keep the IDE cable out of the way of any graphics cards that are being installed. Two of the eight SATA ports the board has are directly behind the IDE port. The final six ports are located at the very bottom edge of the board.
The CPU area on the board looks quite spacious these days thanks to GIGABYTE's new heatpipe design and total re-design of the voltage regulators. The CPU is provided with power though a 12-phase voltage regulation system that is cooled by the heatpipe assembly which is also connected to the Northbridge and Southbridge chipsets to provide maximum convection cooling.
On the rear of the board GIGABYTE has placed two extra heatsinks to help remove heat from the system; an extra large one at the top cools the back of the CPU and the Northbridge while a smaller one is placed on the back of the Southbridge chipset.
The rear I/O ports are identical in design to the X38-DQ6 DDR2 version and the X48-DQ6 we just recently reviewed. It looks like GIGABYTE has decided to do a unified port arrangement on this series of boards which is good to see. There's no need to change them if you not adding extra ports.
Coming down to the expansion slots we have an identical arrangement to the X38-DQ6 and the X48-DQ6. There are two blue PCI Express x16 slots that are run off the Northbridge and receive 16 lanes each to support full speed Crossfire. NVIDIA still hasn't given Intel a licence for SLI so don't get your hopes up for this. The two blue slots are PCI Express 2.0 compliant so if you get one of ATI's latest PCI Express 2.0 cards you can take full advantage of it.
Three PCI Express x1 slots are given for additional PCI Express connectivity and two PCI legacy slots for TV tuners and sound cards also make the cut.
The IDE and two purple SATA ports are controlled by the JMicron PCI Express controller chip. The two Gigabit Ethernet ports are run off two separate PCI Express Marvell chips and the Firewire support comes from a Texas Instruments PCI based Firewire chip.

Pune kid killed for money to buy motorbike
Zeenews Bureau
Pune: The authorities in Pune have taken into custody two persons - one of them a minor- for kidnapping and killing a 5-year-old boy after holding him for a ransom.
Reports, Tuesday, claimed that the minor 'Shubh Rawal' was kidnapped and strangled to death by a 19-year-old hotel management student Parminder Singh with the help of a 15-year-old class 10 student late on Sunday.
The two have been detained and booked for murder.
Pune police claims that the main accused Parminder, who worked part-time at a shopping mall, dreamt of buying a motorbike, which possibly led him to commit the crime.
"Parminder, resident of Defence Security Corps quarters, Ramnagar, kidnapped Shubh Bhupendra Raval last evening and afterwards strangulated him and dumped the body on the ARDE hill," Ajay Kadam, Senior Police Inspector, Chatushringi Police Station was quote as telling the reporters.
After its initial investigation into the matter, the police claim that Parminder and his accomplice hoped to make big money by abducting the only child of what they believed were rich parents.
Shubh`s parents, Sukeshree and Bhupendra Rawal are scientists, working at the High Energy Materials Research Laboratory (HEMRL) and Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE) in Pune respectively.
During his interrogation, Parminder has narrated to police how he kidnapped Subh on that fateful Sunday evening.
Parminder told the police that he kidnapped Subh, who was playing near the Ganpati mandal at the ARDE complex with friends. He lured him to buy a chocolate and when the unsuspecting innocent boy agreed to come with him, he took Subh to the nearby Pashan Hills.
There, Parminder asked Shubh to give his father's mobile number, however, the minor refused to oblige him and instead started crying.
This angered Parminder, who, in a fit of rage, allegedly strangled Shubh`s neck and later, gagged him to death with a handkerchief.
The police have arrested Parminder and his associate, a Class X student of the Army Public School in Pune Cantonment and the duo has been booked for murder following a complaint lodged by Shubh`s father.

Heavy rain drenches Southeast Missouri
Wednesday, July 12, 2006
Precipitation pummeled the region Tuesday afternoon, closing some local roadways due to flooding but causing few accidents.
According to readings at the Cape Girardeau Regional Airport, 2.46 inches of rain fell between early Tuesday and 7:53 p.m., the National Weather Service reported.
Most of the rain fell between 1 and 2 p.m. and between 4 and 5 p.m., totaling 0.6 and 0.66 inches, respectively. Monday saw 0.14 inches of rainfall for the whole day.
The rapid rainfall came at a cost: concerns about flooding.
A flash flood warning was issued at 5:31 p.m. Tuesday for Scott County, and Alexander and Pulaski counties in Illinois due to heavy rainfall saturating the areas, according to the weather service.
Five roadways in Scott County were closed Tuesday night due to flooding from rainfall: Route A, County Road 234, County Road 329, U.S. 61 and Highway 91. All the roadways were expected to open back up sometime today, a Scott County Sheriff's Department dispatcher said.
Sections of Main Street and parts of City Park in Jackson were closed for about 30 minutes due to flooding before reopening Tuesday afternoon, a police dispatcher said. There were no reports of weather-related accidents in town or of vehicles becoming stranded in standing water, she said.
Dispatchers from the Cape Girardeau County Sheriff's Department and Missouri State Highway Patrol said they had no reports of weather-related accidents or flooding over roadways Tuesday.
Between Monday and Tuesday's rainfall, Cape Girardeau had at least two accidents attributed to the wet roadways, according to police Sgt. Barry Hovis.
"Remember it's different driving on slick pavement than on dry pavement," Hovis said, advising all motorists to slow down and allow for extra time for stopping during rain.
Today's high is expected to be 88 degrees, with a low of 73 and mostly cloudy skies, National Weather Service meteorologist Robin Smith said in Paducah, Ky. There is a 60 to 70 percent chance of rain through this afternoon, he added. A 40 percent chance of more rain exists into Thursday night.
Rainfall in the area is expected to taper off Friday evening, according to Smith. The weekend forecast is partly cloudy to sunny, very hot and humid with highs in the mid-90s and a heat index of 105 degrees, he said.

Afternoon Fodorites
I have been researching a safari to Africa for some. Every time I feel like I have a pretty good idea of what I want to do another option comes to mind. I suppose it is a wonderful problem to have but there is just so much to see and do in Southern Africa!
Hopefully yall can help me narrow it down, or more likely offer even more possibilities. Either would be great.
We're looking at 13-15 nights in Africa for our honeymoon. We'll be traveling mid May 2008.
I have been looking at the South Luangwa National Park for 5-8 days. But have recently begun researching Bots and was also thinking of the Linyanti/Okavango area.
Then of course there is the Sabi Sands area and Cape Town.
I cant do all of this I know. Are some areas better in May than other?
Our budget is app 10000 USD exc. international airfare.
I was thinking of 6 nts in South Luangwa, 1 nt Vic Falls, 3 nts Linyanti, and 3 nts Okavango. My only concern is that this may be too much traveling for a honeymoon.
Thanks for all your help. I know this is a lot of questions!

"too much traveling for a honeymoon."
Well, not for me, but then again, it has been a long time since I've had a honeymoon. So maybe it would be . How much traveling is good on a honeymoon, anyone????

One of my close friends went to Capetown for her honeymoon and loved it. I think Capetown (a few nights in the city and a few nights in the winelands), combined with Sabi Sands, would be ideal. Personally, I would not want to be in the bush for my entire honeymoon.

Moving right along...
There have been some Cape Town and South Africa safari honeymoon threads, so that is a nice combination.
I like your original plan too. You may want to check into walking opportunities in mid May. If the grass is too high there is no walking. (I'm assuming you wanted to do walking.) With 6 days you could do walking from remote bush camp to bush camp or pick two camps and do walking from them (if walking is allowed of course.) To give you an idea of pricing for the camp to camp walking safaris, here are a few links. I've used Robin Pope and Remote Africa camps (all great) and will use Norman Carr on an upcoming trip. I've never done walking from camp to camp though, in Zambia.
Linyanti-Okavango is a good combo in Botswana. Camps there are easily $600 per night per person in May and can be much more. Check www.e-gnu.com for approximate rates.
As for potentially too much traveling, actually it seems about right. You could do two 3-night stays in S. Luangwa rather than walking from camp to camp to reduce the moving. In Botswana you would fly, probably mid-day, from one camp to another on a flight that would likely be no longer than an hour or so.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding.

Here's the question you clicked on:
ERASER: -Provide chemical formula(s), elements, physical properties and/or chemical properties. -Explain the composition (percent of each element). -Show molecules and/or structural formulas. -Show chemical reactions (if you can find them). -Does it contain ionic or covalent compound(s) or both? I have bo clue..HELP (There are natural and synthetic erasers too)
Check the chemistry chat .
Do you have any other questions @turtlesaresocoollike ?
yea the ones up there ^
Let me call someone for help @turtlesaresocoollike .
Natural rubber is a mixture of organic compound polyisoprene and small amounts of other organic compounds as well as water. This polymer is the main component. This material is classified as an elastomer (an elastic polymer). It is derived from latex, a milky colloid produced by some plants. The plants are 'tapped', that is, an incision made into the bark of the tree and the sticky, milk colored latex sap collected and refined into a usable rubber. Polyisoprene can also be produced synthetically. Natural rubber is used extensively in many applications and products, as is synthetic rubber. It is normally very stretchy and flexible and extremely waterproof. Synthetic rubber is any type of artificial elastomer, invariably a polymer. An elastomer is a material with the mechanical (or material) property that it can undergo much more elastic deformation under stress than most materials and still return to its previous size without permanent deformation.
I just searched the internet but there is nothing as synthetic and natural eraser,Sorry.
Although there is a lot about rubber
thx i just don't know what to say for all the chemical formulas and stuff but i know how natural and synthetic rubber is made

That dedication was recognized in a big way recently when Hopper was awarded the McDonald's Corp.'s 2009 Outstanding Restaurant Manager Award.
"The Outstanding Restaurant Manager Award is a nation-wide honor that recognizes managers from owner-operator and McOpCo restaurants for performance above and beyond the average norm," information at the McDonald's corporate Web site said. "This award recognizes up to 10 percent of our top restaurant managers across the entire United States system."
Hopper was honored Wednesday when he attended the annual store managers' meeting at the Colts Pavilion in Indianapolis.
"That was when I found out I won the award," he said. "It was a complete surprise."
Criteria for the award include operational excellence, customer service and business building. Selection teams from each region are formed, and those teams review nominations and select award winners.
"This really sets us apart as a store and an organization," Hopper said.
Hopper was humble about the honor.
"It's not me who did it," he said. "It's the managers and the crew and the way they treat the customers. This is a small town, and the trick is to make (the Greencastle McDonald's) a place people want to come back to, and they have made that happen."
Hopper said the Greencastle store's sales and guest counts increased last year. In addition, scores on an employee commitment survey, which measures how happy employees are at their jobs, increased 12 percent.
"We have very low turnover here, which is very rare in this business," Hopper said.
Hopper, who has worked for McDonald's for two-and-a-half years, was quick to point out that his staff has also won an award recently.
The corporation's Super Saturday contest rates stores on transactions, kitchen times, counter times and drive through cars. The Greencastle store is currently ranked third its region, which includes 600 stores.
"They're consistently in the top," Hopper said. "They've done a great job."
The Greencastle McDonald's, which is in the Indianapolis corporate region, is under the Jedele Enterprises umbrella. Jedele also owns McDonald's restaurants in Cloverdale, Crawfordsville, Brazil and Mooresville.

Belus Technology has announced Version 1.6 of XStandard, a WYSIWYG editor for Windows desktop- and browser-based content management systems. The new version of XStandard focuses on improvements to Web Services that speed the authoring process, facilitate tighter integration between the editor and CMS, and extend the benefits of Web Services into shared-hosting environments. XStandard now supports versions 1.1 and 1.2 of SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).
SOAP is a vendor-neutral XML technology used to exchange structured information across platforms and languages. In content management systems (CMS), SOAP enables popular authoring features such as file upload, image libraries and spell checking, and powers the critical relationship between a WYSIWYG editor and the CMS. XStandard now offers an ASP.NET version of Web Services for developers working in shared hosting environments. Shared hosting is an alternative for small and medium-sized businesses that don't require their own server, but ISPs typically won't allow customers to install software on a shared server. Search capability hooks using SOAP are also added to version 1.6 of XStandard. The new search feature is designed to speed up the authoring process by offering a faster way of locating files in image and attachment libraries.
