As part of President George W. Bush’s Twenty in Ten initiative that aims to reduce gasoline consumption in the United States up to 20 percent in the next ten years, Bush Administration’s established the Alternative Fuel Standard (AFS) that will require companies including car manufacturer’s to utilize about 35 billion gallons of renewable and alternative fuels in 2017.

In regards with this, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has also established the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), the country’s first ever comprehensive renewable fuel standard initiative. The RFS program was presented to the public during a recently press conference held last April 10, 2007 conducted by EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrator (NHTSA), along with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Here is what the officials of the three government agencies have to say.

Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman:
“Increasing the use of renewable and alternative fuels to power our nation’s vehicles will help meet the President’s Twenty in Ten goal of reducing gasoline usage by 20 percent in ten years. The Administration’s sustained commitment to technology investment will bring a variety of alternative fuel sources to market and further reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign sources of energy.”

Meanwhile, Nicole R. Nason, Administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said: “While we must look at increasing the availability of renewable and alternative fuels, we must also continue to improve the fuel efficiency of our passenger cars and light trucks. As a part of the President’s “20 in 10″ energy security plan, we need Congress to give the Secretary of Transportation the authority to reform the current passenger car fuel economy standard.”

The main objective of the RFS program is to promote the use of alternative fuels like ethanol and biodiesel that can be abundantly produced from agricultural crops found all over the U.S. including corn, soy beans, sugar cane, and other vegetables. Some of the initiatives, requirements, and other objectives of the RFS program include: motor vehicles sold in the U.S. by 2012 should run on about 7.5 billion gallons renewable fuel mixed with conventional fuel (like diesel or gasoline); reduce the utilization of petroleum-based fuel up to 3.9 billion gallons; reduce the harmful emissions and greenhouse gasses by 13.1 million metric tons by 2012; and reduce gasoline use by approximately 20 percent after the next ten years.

With the RFS program implemented, we might see a Jeep model with quality Jeep steering damper that runs on ethanol or biodiesel fuel.

There has never been a greater time to be a kid and it is only going to get better. The toys of the future will be absolutely incredible, in fact today we can walk down any toy isle in any store and we are overwhelmed by the advancement in sophistication and authenticity. The kids of today like the complexity and realness of the toys and for adults it makes them wonder;

“Where were all these great toys when I was a younger?”

If you have children or grandchildren perhaps you have said or thought the very same thing? If you are a kid, well you do not even know how good you have it. Some of the flying toys, RC-remote control models and dolls are unbelievable in both design and technology.

Then there are the computer games, video games and tech-toys, wow, are they incredible or what and all the kids have cell-phones which were not even available when their parents were young. Heck most of them did not even have computers at all.

The new era of the Skateboards of the future is nearly upon us, but they will not really be skateboards at all. Well they will look like skateboards but they will fly too. All the technologies presented in this book are either available now or in the works, as emerging technologies. Everything in this book is possible and probable in the future and the skateboard, skateboard parks and skateboarder are all ready to do a time warp into the future.

What a great time to be a kid. In past periods the children played with simple toys or even sticks and rocks; in the future the sky is the limit because the ground no longer is. Perhaps you have watched the movie Back to the Future II and the fancy hover board-skateboards? Well these Hover Boards have been on the drawing boards for years and some have actually been built.

Of course until now they have not worked that great or been all that impressive as in the Hollywood movie Back to the Future II, but with the advent of new materials such as carbon nano-tube construction, they will be. Carbon nano-tube construction is 100 times lighter than steel and 50 times stronger. These are vast advancements from the first wooden or plastic skateboards.

Soon the Hover Boards, the Skateboards of the Future and emerging technologies will be integrated into the sport of Skateboarding taking the entire endeavor to a whole new level. Then the research into the technology that might make all this possible will drive this reality up the ramp and into the air, where future awaits. The only question is;

Are You Ready for the Future of Skateboarding and the New Technologies of Hover Boards?

If not get ready because all these high-tech concepts are in the pipeline and they are screaming ahead with or without you. The Future of Skateboarding will never be the same again. I hope you will enjoy this concept and most of all I hope it will make you think, imagine and help us design our future, because it’s time to fly!

Asthma affects approximately 20 million Americans every year. Conventional treatment options are limited to steroid inhalers and bronchodilators. While these medications are effective in relieving the symptoms of asthma, the side effects of continuous long-term treatment can be severe. There are numerous natural strategies to consider for chronic asthma that can offer effective treatment without the side effects.

The following is a list of nutritional supplements and herbal formulas to consider for asthma:

Supplements

Quercetin:
Recognized as one of the superior flavonoids because of its marked antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Quercetin is known for its ability to stabilize mast cells and help control allergies. If the asthma is directly related to allergic reactions, then quercetin is an excellent supplement to try.

Grape Seed extract: A strong antioxidant that is also very good at reducing inflammation and breaking the chronic pattern of allergy-induced asthma.

Cod liver oil: High in essential fatty acids, cod liver oil reduces inflammation, promotes healthy circulation, and is generally strengthening for immunity.

MSM: MSM is an organic sulfur-containing nutrient, a naturally-occurring compound in the environment and in the human body. Sulfur is necessary for the structure of every cell in the body. Hormones, enzymes, antibodies, and antioxidants all depend on it. Because the body utilizes and expends it on a daily basis, sulfur must be continually replenished for optimal nutrition and health. MSM has anti-inflammatory properties. It boosts immunity and is helpful for allergies.

Chinese herbs

Ginseng and gecko: A Chinese herbal formula (ren shen ge jie san) that clears heat and phlegm from the lungs and strengthens both lung and spleen Qi

Ding chuan tang: The most widely used herbal formula for asthma, ding chuan tang can be applied to all kinds of asthma. In particular, if the asthma is exacerbated by the onset of a cold, this formula works well.

Jade Windscreen: A Chinese herbal formula (yu ping feng san) that can be combined with one of the above formulas to add another support in strengthening immunity and boosting lung function.
Acupuncture

Practiced for over 2,500 years in various cultures throughout Asia, acupuncture has enjoyed a long history of treating internal medical conditions. Acupuncture can be very effective in the treatment of asthma. Acupuncture helps to reduce inflammation and balance the major organs that are contributing to one’s symptoms. In Chinese medicine, asthma can be caused by a variety of factors including stress, diet, allergies, candida infection and constitutional weakness. All of these factors are related to different internal organs that are causing the lungs to constrict. Acupuncture theory involves combining the patient’s symptoms with pulse and tongue diagnosis to get a clear picture of the body’s inner workings. Acupoints are used on the corresponding meridians that will balance any energetic or functional disharmonies. Adjunctive therapies are also very helpful for asthma, such as cupping and gua sha.

Diet

The main strategy for asthma sufferers is to avoid foods that provoke inflammation in the body. At the top of this list is the whole class of refined sugars and carbohydrates. Any food that converts into sugar very quickly in the body is going to cause inflammation. Many asthma patients report a marked improvement in their symptoms simply by taking this step.

In Chinese medicine, the lungs share a close relationship with the large intestine. Intestinal toxicity can cause a whole slew of internal problems, including asthma and allergies. If there is a history of constipation, then a cleansing approach is useful to detoxify the colon, which will indirectly benefit the lungs. A high fiber diet that is rich in fruit and vegetables is the key. Flax seed, prune, pear, ripe banana, and herbs such as rhubarb root are helpful colon cleansers.

Deep breathing

Anytime the asthma is in remission, I recommend undertaking deep breathing exercises as much as possible. Ujayi breathing in yoga is a very helpful practice for building lung capacity and strength. This is a long, exaggerated breath that is coordinated with each asana (yoga posture). Many of the chest opening asanas are healing for the lungs as well. Pranayama exercises such as the one minute breath and alternate nasal breathing are beneficial, especially is done on a daily basis. The one minute breath involves inhaling as slowly as possible for as long as possible, holding for as long as possible, then exhaling for as long as possible. Try to build up to a full minute of doing this. Alternate nasal breathing involves plugging one nostril, then inhaling deeply through the other, switching sides, then exhaling slowly and fully, inhaling deeply, then switching sides. This can be repeated several times.

If your stress level is high, then I recommend learning how to meditate for 15-30 minutes per day. If you need help with this, please click here.

Chronic asthma can respond very well to any one of the therapies mentioned above. I have found that combining these therapies offers the most comprehensive approach to rejuvenate the lungs.

IntelliChoice, one of the leading sources of pertinent information to car buyers, recently announced their “Best Deals” list. The list contains what the online outfit thinks is the best vehicle in different classes. For the month of April, IntelliChoice announced their “Best Deals” and this has been done coinciding with the ongoing New York International Auto Show (NYIAS) in the Big Apple.

This month’s list includes several models from Japan’s three biggest car manufacturers. These vehicles are seen as the measuring stick for future production vehicles unveiled and showcased at the New York Auto Show. James Bell, the publisher of IntelliChoice.com, has this to say with regards to the list and the vehicles showcased at the event: “Even more than recent auto shows, the New York show offered a look at some very compelling future competition to many of the mainstays on our monthly ‘Best Deals’ list.”

The Honda Civic hybrid is rated as the best deal for the Compact Car over $16,000 class by IntelliChoice.com. For the Compact Car under $16,000 class, the best deal is touted to be the Honda Civic DX with an automatic transmission.

Aside from these two models, another Honda produced vehicle was named as a best deal in its class - the Honda Civic Si. The said model is named as the best deal in the Base Sport Car class. The Honda Odyssey is once again named as the best deal for the Minivan class. The Honda Odyssey has been dominating that class in recent history but will face strong competition in the form of the Ford Flex recently unveiled at the New York International Auto Show.

A Nissan model is also named as one of the best deals for the month of April. The Nissan Frontier King Cab XE 2WD with a manual transmission is named as the best deal for the Compact Pickup Truck 2WD class. The King Cab is the first crew cab body style compact pickup truck in North America and since its inception in the U.S. auto market has been popular among car buyers. With its trademark dependability, the Nissan Frontier is not a surprise choice as the best deal for its class. Its high performance construction and components such as the Nissan spark plug wires are one of the reasons why the Frontier sits at the top of its class.

Toyota, the surging Japanese car manufacturer, also landed several of its models at the “Best Deals” list. The popular Toyota Prius is named as the best deal for the Midsize Car under $21,000 while the Prius Touring is named as the best deal for the Midsize Car over $21,000 class.

SCADA is an acronym that stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition. SCADA refers to a system that collects data from various sensors at a factory, plant or in other remote locations and then sends this data to a central computer which then manages and controls the data

SCADA systems are used not only in industrial processes: e.g. steel making, power generation (conventional and nuclear) and distribution, chemistry, but also in some experimental facilities such as nuclear fusion. The size of such plants range from a few 1000 to several 10 thousands input/output (I/O) channels. However, SCADA systems evolve rapidly and are now penetrating the market of plants with a number of I/O channels of several 100 K: we know of two cases of near to 1 M I/O channels currently under development.

There are many parts of a working SCADA system. A SCADA system usually includes signal hardware (input and output), controllers, networks, user interface (HMI), communications equipment and software. All together, the term SCADA refers to the entire central system. The central system usually monitors data from various sensors that are either in close proximity or off site (sometimes miles away).

An industrial measurement and control system consisting of a central host or master (usually called a master station, master terminal unit or MTU); one or more field data gathering and control units or remotes (usually called remote stations, remote terminal units, or RTU’s); and a collection of standard and/or custom software used to monitor and control remotely located field data elements. Contemporary SCADA systems exhibit predominantly open-loop control characteristics and utilise predominantly long distance communications, although some elements of closed-loop control and/or short distance communications may also be present.

Systems similar to SCADA systems are routinely seen in factories, treatment plants etc. These are often referred to as Distributed Control Systems (DCS). They have similar functions to SCADA systems, but the field data gathering or control units are usually located within a more confined area. Communications may be via a local area network (LAN), and will normally be reliable and high speed. A DCS system usually employs significant amounts of closed loop control.

SCADA systems on the other hand generally cover larger geographic areas, and rely on a variety of communications systems that are normally less reliable than a LAN. Closed loop control in this situation is less desirable.

I have a friend in the insurance industry who accomplished in one year what some of the real stars in his business accomplish in four years. Not long ago I had a discussion with him about sales call reluctance. Now here is a guy who obviously knows how to pick up the phone and make call after call to the same prospect. I asked him, “So Mike, do you ever experience call reluctance?”

His answer might surprise you.

He said, “Oh yes I do. Everyday.”

Considering that you are reading an article from someone who speaks on the subject of moving from sales call reluctance to sales call willingness, you are probably expecting to learn about the fear behind sales call reluctance and how to stop it or change it. Well, if you have ever watched Monty Python’s Flying Circus, you might remember them saying, “And now for something completely different…”

I am about to tell you something completely different than what you were most likely expecting.

The truth is, no matter what new technique you learn today, no matter how great your sales were yesterday, no matter how nice the last person you spoke to acted, there is always fear waiting for you at the onset of the calls you make tomorrow. I am a firm believer that the techniques you learn about how or what to say are not half as effective in overcoming call reluctance as learning techniques to deal with that nagging voice that pesters you inside your head from sun up to sun down.

The key to seizing the phone is not about understanding your fear around it, or even understanding what has made you feel so fearful about making all those calls, so that you can do away with the fear altogether. How do I know this? I have experienced it. Plenty of people will tell you that the way to overcome that call reluctance is to understand your fear around it. Once you understand why or what has made you feel so fearful about making those calls, you’ll be able to do away with the call reluctance you feel altogether.

I completely disagree with that position because I do not believe it is call reluctance that stops you from making those prospecting calls. In reality, call reluctance is not an actual thing that you can see, hear, touch, smell or taste. It is only an idea that exits in your mind. The difficulty, however, is that the effects of that idea seem very, very real.

Unlike other call reluctance experts who approach this topic with techniques to make call reluctance go away, I maintain that the very act of trying to make call reluctance go away strengthens its hold on you.

For me moving from call reluctance to call willingness is a daily occurrence. Your success is inevitable once you know how to catch yourself right in the middle of your own self sabotage.One of the things that prevents so many independent sales professionals from picking up that 100 lb telephone is the idea that it will be better to call later — when the call reluctance they feel isn’t there.

Far too many sales professionals are waiting until they have the courage to make those calls. They are waiting for those feelings of call reluctance to go away. They believe they will be able to make the calls, once they no longer feel the fear of call reluctance.

If you made a list of people you were going to call today, or if you had an idea in your mind about how many prospects you would call, but you failed to make many of those calls, I am going to bet that what stopped you was the feeling that you somehow lacked the courage to make all those calls. You might have convinced yourself that you had too many other pressing activities (checking email, getting coffee, keeping up with coworkers, following up with past clients, organizing your desk,etc.), but deep inside you are waiting for the fear to go away before you make those calls.

Now, the question I want to ask you is this:

When you did not make the calls you wanted to make today, did you tell yourself that it is not a problem because you can make those calls tomorrow? If so, I suggest you begin to focus on call willingness. Instead of listening to a voice that talks you out of making prospecting calls all day, start suggesting reasons why you are willing to call your prospects. Then, listen to the reasons why you are willing to call your prospects and seize your phone!
