TORONTO, ON -- (Marketwired) -- 05/14/14 -- Axxess Pharma Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AXXE), a specialty pharmaceutical and nutritional supplements company, is pleased to announce that TapouT Muscle Recovery, an innovative line of sports nutrition supplements and topical sprays that help build muscle and reduce inflammation during and after intense training sessions, has rapidly become one of the top-selling brands on RevNutrition.com.
The line, manufactured by All Star Brands, Inc., is made from a blend of seven different essential oils specially formulated to promote healthy muscle growth. It recently became available on RevNutrition.com, where it has become a favorite of the ecommerce platform's loyal customers. This comes shortly after TapouT quickly sold out its first order on Amazon.com, prompting the company to replenish the supply of its products available on the world's most popular online marketplace.
TapouT Muscle Recovery (www.tapoutmusclerecovery.com) helps bodybuilders, athletes and other active people build muscle and burn fat more efficiently, without causing a thinning of the blood like many other pain relievers available today. This makes it completely safe for individuals with heart conditions or other medical concerns. It comes in seven different varieties, including a daytime supplement that pairs the line's unique muscle-building properties with a steady energy boost. There is also a nighttime supplement that delivers powerful pain relief during periods of rest, helping the body recuperate and build muscle, as well as a number of topical sprays and ointments that can be rubbed directly onto sore muscles for rapid and effective relief.
RevNutrition.com is a leading online vendor of nutritional products. Carrying more than 170 brands and offering over 2,600 items, the website provides customers with some of the most respected vitamins, skin care products and sports nutrition supplements on the market.
As part of its expansion in the U.S. marketplace, All Star Brands is working closely with Nutritional Products International (NPI), a respected sales and brand management firm specializing in sports nutrition products.
"Ever since we launched our product line in the U.S. market just a few months ago, we have seen a tremendous response from our ever-growing customer base," said Dr. Daniel Bagi, president of All Star Brands. "After selling out our first order on Amazon much faster than we expected, this is another piece of terrific news for our brand. The momentum just keeps building for TapouT across the United States."
"TapouT has made a truly impressive mark on customers across the country in very little time, which is a reflection of just how effective these products are for athletes and bodybuilders," said Mitch Gould, CEO of NPI. "Word travels fast, and this brand continues to exceed expectations. We look forward to an exciting future for the entire TapouT line of supplements and sprays."

(Reuters) – Visa Inc beat Wall Street estimates for quarterly profit on Wednesday, as the payments network processed more transactions on the back of higher consumer spending in the holiday season.
The company said total payments volumes and the number of processed transactions both rose 11 percent, sending its shares up 2.43 percent after the bell.
The United States had its strongest holiday season in six years backed on the strength in the economy. According to a Dec. 26 report by Mastercard, holiday spending rose 5.1 percent to more than $850 billion (£651 billion).
This boosted payments volume, which represents the dollar amount of purchases made with cards carrying Visa’s branding. The company charges a fee every time a merchant swipes a card that uses its network.
Payments volume at Visa is improving as it is heavily marketing and trying to bolster revenue at its Visa Direct platform, which enables real-time funds delivery directly to financial accounts using card credentials.
Net income at the world’s largest payment processor rose to $2.98 billion, or $1.30 per Class A share, in the first quarter ended Dec. 31, from $2.52 billion, or $1.07 cents per Class A share, a year earlier.
Excluding one-time items, Visa earned $1.30 per share, beating the analyst average estimate of $1.25, according to IBES data from Refinitiv. It was not immediately clear if the numbers were comparable.
Net revenue rose 13.24 percent to $5.51 billion in the quarter.

Weft gets backing from Andreessen Horowitz, aims for $5M Series A
Weft, a Burlington-based startup that uses hardware and software to track the shipping of goods worldwide, has raised funding from Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, founder and CEO Marc Held said.
The startup's seed round — which has not yet officially closed — is under $1 million, and was led by Andreessen Horowitz and early-stage venture fund Data Elite, which is providing Weft with workspace in San Francisco.
Data Elite is also providing Weft with access to advice and insights from high-ranking employees such as Ken Rudin, head of analytics at Facebook, and Jeff Magnusson, manager of data science platform architecture at Netflix.
"It's a strategic move for us because now we get access to really high-caliber folks, and we have a dedicated time to meet with everybody in the advisory firm every week," Held said in an interview.
The company makes hardware sensors and asoftware that aims to reduce costs and improve delivery times for the shipping of goods worldwide. Its goal is to use technology to figure out where the bottlenecks are in shipping, how shipments can get to their end-points faster, and whether the shipments will be late.
Held said Weft aims reduce "cargo shrinkage," which is when items get lost, stolen or spoiled during the process of shipping cargo.
Weft's paid customers include a risk management software company in Texas and a Middle Eastern logistics company. The company is also tracking shipments of vaccines throughout Africa in a pilot program.
Previous investors in Weft include Bridge Boys, a Boston-based investment fund supporting early-stage startups.

Torus Bowl Wins 2016 Vanguard Award
The Torus Bowl, manufactured by Heyrex in Karori, Wellington, New Zealand, was one of one of three bowls to win the 2016 Vanguard Award, which recognizes leadership, category growth and innovation within the U.S. pet industry.
“Torus is a unique and exciting solution that sits between a water fountain and travel bowl,” said Carina Evans, CEO of Torus. “The system automatically dispenses filtered water, just like a fountain, but there is no need for power or batteries, making it fully portable.”
To earn the award, the bowl met several criteria, including addressing consumer demand for convenience, portability and keeping pets hydrated during car rides and walks.
The watering system, which launched in the U.K. pet market in 2015, has won a Queen’s Award, a new product recognition award and an innovation of the year award for 2016.

What are Canberra’s oldest surviving businesses? That is the question the Canberra Business Council is asking in a bid to celebrate their achievements.
According to Canberra Business Chamber CEO, Dr Michael Schaper, longevity is a remarkable achievement in business. Nationally, he said the average business won’t last longer than 10 to 15 years, while “the average life expectancy of a business based in Canberra is still only about five years”.
“But we also know many businesses thrive and grow. We want to find the oldest surviving businesses.”
Dr Schaper said this year marks more than 70 years that the Chamber has been operating, “and we want to celebrate those individual businesses that have also been here for the long term”.
He said often such long-term businesses are “ clearly focussed on a particular industry” and “know what they do and do it well”, in addition to anchoring themselves in the Canberra community and having a strong family history.
National Family Business Day was held on Thursday 19 September and, according to the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman, Kate Carnell, “are the lifeblood of our communities and key contributors to our economy”.
Locally, family business Frawley’s Shoes has been operating in Canberra for the past 92 years. It remains in the family’s hands three generations on, with the Garema Place store managed by Lisa Frawley.
“My family started selling shoes in the 1920s from the back of a T-Model Ford truck,” Mrs Frawley said. “When Parliament House was being built, they’d drive the truck up to sell the workers their boots. I guess my grandfather knew a business opportunity when he saw one.”
Canberra’s oldest businesses will be celebrated at the Chamber’s annual gala dinner on 7 November at the National Museum of Australia, with the theme ‘Canberra Business: Then, Now and Always’.
“We’re hoping Canberrans will help us identify who they are,” Dr Schaper said. “While some names are well known to us, others are not. But they’re all important, and they’re all part of the history of our town.”
If you have any information on Canberra’s oldest businesses, email [email protected] or call 6247 4199.

Tether recognises and aims to help solve the inflationary crisis in Argentina by partnering with KriptonMarket. Tradecurve recognises the issues of unequal access to financial products and presents a solution through its hybrid trading platform that will allow global access to trading.
Tether and KriptonMarket bring mass adoption one step closer in Argentina and beyond
Argentina is currently dealing with insanely high inflation rates, going over 108%. Tether, the most used stablecoin, saw this as an opportunity to enter the market and provide a solution for people looking to protect themselves from their volatile economy.
To make stablecoins more accessible in Argentina, Tether has partnered with KriptonMarket, an on-ramp solution. Their goal is to enable people to accept, pay with and be paid in Tether, at the Central Market of Buenos Aires – a major player in the fruit and vegetable business in Latin America.
The Central Market of Buenos Aires is a bustling hub, providing jobs to over 2,000 Argentinians, and trading more than 106,000 tons of produce each month from various farms and merchants.
Unfortunately for locals, Argentina’s inflation rate is the fourth highest globally. The country has been grappling with persistent high inflation since the mid-2000s, and it currently holds the highest inflation rate among G20 nations.
Given the severity of inflation, many Argentinians have turned to cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, as a way to protect themselves against the economic challenges they face. Stablecoins like Tether aim to combat inflation by offering an alternative currency that mitigates currency depreciation. With the inflation crisis in full swing, it’s no wonder that non-fiat currencies are becoming increasingly appealing to Argentinians.
While Argentina ranks 13th in the 2022 Global Crypto Adoption Index by Chainalysis, not everyone in the country fully embraces cryptocurrencies. There have been recent restrictions on crypto transactions, such as the central bank’s ban on payment providers facilitating them.
However it’s clear that this doesn’t match with the will of the people since these measures have increased support for pro-Bitcoin politician Javier Milei, who has been vocal about his support for the cryptocurrency.
Tradecurve is another part of the solution for financial access equality
Tradecurve is trying to turn the TradFi world upside down and bring some innovative solutions to the global economy. They’re all about transparency and flexibility, thanks to the power of blockchain technology.
Now, let’s connect the dots. Just like Tether partnering with KriptonMarket to help Argentinians fight inflation, Tradecurve is also focused on solving global financial issues. They’re enabling people to trade crypto and all kinds of financial products such as stocks, bonds and forex, without being held back by regulatory restrictions. It represents a new era for the unbanked and those facing economic challenges. It’s like having the best of both TradFi and DeFi – the convenience of a traditional brokerage combined with the transparency and decentralized nature of blockchain.
Tradecurve knows how important privacy is. They’re breaking barriers and letting people trade without invasive KYC procedures. All you need to do is deposit your crypto and then trade freely. They even accept popular stablecoin USDT, meaning that Tether’s partnership with KriptonMarket is bullish news for Tradecurve, as Argentinians will have easy access to the currency from now on, especially as Tether has also been integrated into the Strike payment app.
Argentina is a great example of a place where Tradecurve can make a difference. By providing a platform where people can trade freely and access financial opportunities, they’re empowering those who are affected by hyperinflation and economic instability. It’s a step towards financial freedom and leveling the playing field.
Tradecurve’s native token is TCRV. Holders of TCRV can stake their tokens and earn passive income while helping to ensure deep liquidity for the platform. Plus, TCRV holders get discounts on trading fees and more.
Tradecurve is now in the second stage of presale at $0.012. With their global potential, it’s easy to see why the token is forecasted to go as high as $5 when it’s listed on Uniswap and other major exchanges.

Stop & Shop, Aldi U.S. and Lidl US are expanding hiring as grocery retailers nationwide seek extra hands to help with surging consumer purchases and stronger health safety measures amid the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Quincy, Mass.-based Stop & Shop said Thursday it plans to hire at least 5,000 new associates for regular part-time jobs in stores, distribution centers and delivery operations in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
To help identify potential candidates for openings across all shifts and all positions, the Ahold Delhaize USA supermarket chain said it will work with the United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW) and local businesses that have been forced to lay off or furlough staff.
Part-time positions — which Stop & Shop noted aren’t temporary — include night crew, cashiers and porters as well as jobs in the retailer’s bakery, deli, grocery, produce, seafood and meat departments. The chain operates more than 400 stores in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York and New Jersey.
“Stop & Shop’s associates are doing extraordinary work to serve our customers and local communities during this unprecedented time, and we are looking forward to adding great new members to the team,” Maria Silvestri, senior vice president of human resources at Stop & Shop, said in a statement. “Recognizing the enormous impact that the coronavirus emergency is having on local employment, we also hope these new positions will provide an important base of new growth and opportunity for many of our neighbors across the region.”
Also on Thursday, Arlington, Va.-based Lidl US announced plans to hire up to 1,000 temporary employees across its store network and distribution centers for a minimum of two months.
Lidl said newly hired employees without health insurance will be immediately eligible for medical benefits — covering testing and treatment for COVID-19 — at no cost under what the company called a “first-in-the industry policy” with CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield.
There will be no waiting time to receive the insurance, Lidl noted. Current U.S. employees enrolled in company insurance plans will automatically receive the enhanced medical benefits package, which waives co-payments, coinsurance and deductibles, the company said, adding that the coverage also includes virtual visits via the CareFirst Video Visit platform.
“Every day, our No. 1 priority is the health and safety of our customers and our team, and that is our primary focus during this public health emergency,” Lidl US Chairman Roman Heini stated. “The new positions announced today will help us better meet the unprecedented needs of our customers. We are working hard to serve them and protect the health of our employees who are playing a critical role.”
Currently, Lidl operates more than 95 U.S. stores in Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York.
“When Lidl US asked us to help develop an enhanced plan to support their team amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we were honored to partner with them,” commented Brian Pieninck, president and CEO of CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield. “The services that Lidl and its employees provide are essential to our communities, especially during periods of great challenge and uncertainty. By offering comprehensive COVID-19 coverage, Lidl US is demonstrating their commitment to put people first.”
Batavia, Ill.-based Aldi U.S. reported yesterday that, as part of its coronavirus response, it has hired nearly 7,500 employees and is “continuing to hire more each day,” including temporary positions in its stores and warehouses.
Aldi said it also has stepped up support for employees through temporary wage increases for workers in stores and warehouses as well as an adjusted sick-leave policy to ensure staff stay home when not feeling well. The retailer, too, said it’s donating $1 million to community organizations to support people in need during the COVID-19 health crisis.
“Now more than ever, our service to the community is critical. As more Americans are advised to stay home, we want to reassure you that ALDI stores will remain open and our focus is to keep our shelves stocked,” Aldi said in a message to customers. “We are extremely proud of and grateful for our amazing team and network of partners who are working harder than ever to serve you and your families.”

DALLAS — The small private eye-care practitioner has seen his market shrink since the advent of eye-care store chains in the late 1970s.
About a dozen large chains--such as Dallas-based Pearle Vision Centers, which offers discount prices and same-day service--have seized 25.7 percent of the $7.8 billion retail eye-care market in the last eight years, according to Advisory Enterprises, a New York-based publisher of eye-care trade magazines. In that period, the share for an estimated 40,000 independent optometrists, opticians and ophthalmologists has decreased to 66 percent.
But Joel Ray, president of a local lens-grinding company, said he has a solution.
Ray, owner of Associated Optical, contracted with American Telephone & Telegraph Co. in September to start a nationwide computerized distribution and marketing company for independent, private eye-care specialists. The company, called TOP Network (Total Ophthalmic Professional Network), will provide private practictioners with the same order-and-delivery speed as chains and reduce their processing costs, Ray said.
``Instead of calling six different frame companies to order six different frames, independent eye-care practitioners will make one call to TOP Network to order all the frames they need,`` Ray said. ``TOP Network will assemble all orders received during the day and place one combined order with each manufacturer. The orders will be made by computer, eliminating phone calls.`` TOP introduced itself last week at Optifair `86, the optical trade show in Anaheim, Calif. Ray said the company will provide the nation`s first ``one- stop shopping`` service for private eye-care practitioners.
TOP bought $3 million worth of AT&T computer equipment last month
--including 500 PC 6300s, Ray said. The firm also purchased AT&T WATS and 800 telephone services to handle its telemarketing service.
The firm will expand and purchase more than $10 million in equipment from AT&T, Ray said.
Each of TOP`s clients, such as Dr. Steven E. Kaye, an optometrist here, will receive a PC 6300 free for ordering $2,000 worth of products each month from TOP.
``I`m excited about it,`` said Kaye, the first private practitioner in the nation to join the system. ``It will save me time, and I`ll be able to save money in lens prices.
``It can literally take four or five days for my (store) to order lenses,`` he said. ``This way, it takes five minutes.``
TOP has contracted with DHL, a parcel delivery service, to transport products overnight from the manufacturer to their laboratory, Ray said.
Ray said that before developing TOP, eye-care product manufacturers would not sell directly to independents because orders were too small. And independents could not have afforded the cost.
TOP, however, already has established agreements with several major manufacturers to purchase products in bulk for distribution to private practitioners, Ray said.

After looking forward and waiting patiently for the ambitious sci-fi exploration game No Man’s Sky to release, it seems we might need to be patient a little longer.
It has been revealed by sources close to Kotaku that No Man’s Sky’s release might be pushed back to July or August. The game was originally planned to launch on the 21st of June 2016.
This is backed up by a second source working at the retailer GameStop, who said that their stores were instructed to cover up any mention of the 21st of June release date and rather use the term “coming soon” on all marketing materials.
This is disappointing news as we can’t wait to get our hands on the game. This said I would rather wait a month or two and have a near perfectly working game at launch than having a game full of bugs. In the end, Hello Games need to do what is best for the game.

Adriana Lima went to watch the fashion show where Balmain’s designer Olivier Rousteing exhibited her new collection.
The 40-year-old Brazilian model attended the Balmain fashion show organized as part of Paris Fashion Week with her lover Andre Lemmers.
Wearing a black dress at the fashion show at Carreaux du Temple in Paris, Lima’s growing belly did not go unnoticed.
Lima, who has two children named Valentina (12) and Sienna (9) with her ex-wife Marko Jaric, and is expecting her third child from her union with Andre Lemmers, was the most striking name of the fashion show.
Adriana Lima, who was in love with Metin Hara for a while, started to appear in the press with her new lover after the separation. The famous model, who finally found the love she was looking for, is getting ready to hold her baby in her arms.
The famous model, who posed for pregnancy for the first time, reflected the excitement of motherhood with her pleasant moods.
The 40-year-old beautiful, happy news from her marriage to her ex-wife Marco Jaric, who has two daughters, Valentina and Sienna, announced on her Tiktok account.
Adriana Lima showed the test in her hand without makeup in the video, and the word ‘pregnant’ was seen in the test
Lima is seen wearing a white bathrobe in the video she shared on her new media. With a pregnancy test in her hand, she went to the bed where her lover Andre Lemmers was sleeping and showed her the result. The surprise on Lemmers’ face at the time drew attention.
Adriana lima was on the agenda for a while with Turkish lovers such as Metin Hara and Emir Uyar.
She appeared on the red carpet for the first time with her new lover, producer Andre Lemmers, at the 78th Venice Film Festival in September last year.
It was claimed that Adriana Lima, who attracted attention with the weight she gained in those days, was pregnant. Lima told the news of the baby 5 months after these allegations.

Recent data from HMRC indicates that exports of fruit from the UK to the EU, including traditional English apples and pears, have more than halved since Brexit. The drop has been put down to the introduction of trade barriers caused by the UK’s departure from the EU, including mandatory health certificates on fresh and chilled food and customs paperwork.
In the year to 31 March 2021, the UK sold £248.5m worth of fruit to the EU. But sales figures dropped to £119m the next year and have remained at that level since, with the latest tax data showing sales for the year to March 2023 of £113.8m.
Chartered accountancy firm Hazlewoods, which analyzed the figures, blamed a number of factors, including the risk to farmers who are selling fruit, which may end up rotting if delayed by customs or phytosanitary officials in Calais and other EU ports. But they also said that, with the delays and extra cost of fruit, retailers in continental Europe were now less likely to buy from the UK and were choosing to import fruit from other countries within the bloc.

Decorated with swooping birds and stars and flowers, Toyota’s electric vehicle normally might seem out of place at the Detroit auto show, where carmakers generally have put their most formidable iron on display.
But this is a show where green cars have taken center stage. And even though it did not star at a news conference, the Future Toyota Electric Vehicle — or FTEV for short — is drawing plenty of attention.
Toyota said here that it will begin to market the FTEV in 2012, marking a return of electric vehicles to its American lineup. Toyota initially leased, and then sold an electric version of its RAV-4, a small sport utility vehicle, between 1997 and 2003. But it was overshadowed by the Toyota Prius, a hybrid-electric car, and quietly disappeared after Toyota sold 328 of its electric RAVs.
The new electric vehicle might also be in danger of being overshadowed by the new version of the Prius and the new plug-in hybrid that Toyota will introduce late this year. (It may be called the Prius Plug-in, said Bob Carter, the general manager of the Toyota Division.)
But Toyota isn’t looking at the conventional car market for the FTEV. Instead, it sees the car as ideal for the growing market in car-sharing vehicles.
“We’re focusing less on traditional commercial use,” said Bob Reinert, national manager of Toyota’s advanced technology group.
While there are no plans in place yet, FTEV could end up as an offering from Zipcar, which offers vehicles for short-term use in a number of cities across the country, or join the lineup of vehicles made available by CityCarShare, a program in the San Francisco area. It also might participate in the electric car network that is being formed by Project Better Place, Mr. Reinert said.
He cautioned that many issues have to be resolved before the electric vehicle can make its debut. A dearth of recharging stations across the country is one hurdle. Though electric vehicles might seem an opportune choice for city dwellers, Mr. Reinert said many New Yorkers, in particular, “don’t have a parking space and a place to charge it at night,” he said.
Mr. Reinert sees a promising opportunity, however, in newly minted communities that encourage residents to use non-polluting vehicles. He said Toyota might team up with a developer so that its vehicles are made available to home owners or renters, like the GEM electric vehicle, which is used in a number of neighborhoods in warm climates.
The Toyota EV would have an advantage, he said, since it can legally be driven on city streets and area highways. “It’s more than a golf cart — it’s freeway capable,” Mr. Reinert said.
All that is well down the road: Toyota has not set a price, nor has it decided how many FTEVs it plans to build. But executives clearly see the need to do something more than conventionally powered cars and hybrid-vehicles.
“The new automotive era will be very complex,” said Masatami Takimoto, Toyota executive vice president in charge of powertrain development.

comScore: 2012 a watershed year for mobile
New data out today from comScore underlines the importance of mobile to brands - namely that more than 125 million consumers (US) now own smartphones and that 50 million now own tablets. This new adoption rate is pushing more consumers into the 'always on' mentality and blurring the line between work, personal time and entertainment.
Here are some takeaways from the report:
• Smartphones have finally surpassed 50% market penetration, smartphone adoption is up 29% (vs 2011) and 99% (vs 2010)
• Android and iOS hold a 90% share of the smartphone market (US)
• High speed connections have pushed mobile media consumption with many users connecting with WiFi almost constantly
• Samsung is the fastest growing OEM, showing 100% growth (2011 - 2012)
" was a watershed year for mobile, with smartphones surpassing 50 percent penetration and tablets continuing to gain traction," said Mark Donovan, comScore SVP for Mobile. "As consumers incorporate these devices into their daily diet of digital media consumption, marketers and media companies are challenged to confront this emerging multi-platform paradigm. Having a clear view of today's digital landscape - and particularly the rapidly expanding usage of mobile devices - will be critical to success in the year ahead."
As for what mobile consumers are doing on their smartphones and tablets, studies show that they are using mobiles to connect with product information while shopping in-store, they are utilizing apps and mobile browsers to connect with social networks and check email, and they are playing games, also via both app and browser.

News Corp.’s $30 billion digital daily newspaper experiment is about to come to fruition, and the media giant has lined up one of the world’s greatest salesmen to deliver the news.
According to Yahoo, News Corp. chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch will appear with Apple CEO Steve Jobs next week to launch The Daily, the company’s much-anticipated iPad news publication.
The two are scheduled to unveil The Daily at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art on Jan. 19—though that date could change, according to Yahoo.
The Daily has been the subject of tremendous media hype and scrutiny over the past several months. Despite the big budget for the iPad title, Murdoch’s rocky history with digital media has given many in the industry pause.
Murdoch is said to be spending $30 billion on the launch, and has lined up a slew of well known journalists for the project.

Britons can sell mobile phone 'for increased travel options'
8 December 2010 — 12:01 PM
British travellers who sell a mobile phone and put the funds towards one of the latest smartphones will find there are plenty of apps to help with their journeys.
Adam, writing a post for the Nokia Conversations blog, explains there are four travel apps he believes to be the greatest.
He starts by nominating Lastminute.com Hotels – a tool that allows people the chance to find somewhere to stay.
Another favourite is Trainline Tickets, which offers the potential to view rail journeys and book tickets direct from an app-friendly device.
For all the latest news and reviews, Adam recommends TripAdvisor, where tourists can pick up tips on where to go, what restaurants to eat at and which attractions to visit.

Researchers Discover Doped Aluminum May Make Hydrogen Fuel Cells More Practical
November 1, 2011 2:16 PM
comment(s) - last by
Aluminum doped with titanium was able to catalyze hydrogen
We already know that hydrogen is a green fuel that can
. The catch is that hydrogen is dangerous to store both at fueling stations and aboard the vehicle. The catalyst material used in a hydrogen fuel cell is often platinum or other rare and very expensive metal. A team of researchers from the University of Texas at Dallas and Washington State University think that they may have found a much cheaper catalyst material to advance the adoption of fuel cell technology.
The new catalyst material that the researchers are investigating is a doped aluminum alloy surface. The aluminum alloy is doped with titanium. The titanium is used sparingly in the new catalyst material.
Using controlled temperatures and pressures the team studied the titanium doped aluminum surface searching for signs of catalytic reactions taking place near the titanium atoms. To discover the catalytic reaction the team used the stereoscopic signature of carbon monoxide added to the test to specifically help locate signs of a reaction.
Mercedes-Benz B-Class hydrogen fuel cell vehicle
"We've combined a novel infrared reflection absorption-based surface analysis method and first principles-based predictive modeling of catalytic efficiencies and spectral response, in which a carbon monoxide molecule is used as a probe to identify hydrogen activation on single-crystal aluminum surfaces containing catalytic dopants," says lead researcher Yves J. Chabal of the University of Texas at Dallas.
The titanium added to the aluminum advances the process by helping hydrogen bind to aluminum to form aluminum hydride. When used as a fuel storage device, aluminum hydride could be made to release the hydrogen stores it holds by raising the temperature of the storage medium.
Other researchers have been studying
for storing hydrogen.

EV's have a more promising future than HFC.
11/3/2011 9:14:53 AM
You are assuming that battery tech will make an advance or what is needed is a leap forward. I don't (personally) see that happening.
However there is not nearly the research money invested in Hydrogen Fuel Cells as there is in battery tech. The chances of a small advance in HFC research making them practical is a better bet than a leap forward in battery technology.

People who belong to the “Z” demographic are anywhere from four to 24 years old.
A new survey by the credit reporting agency Transunion says the number of credit-eligible generation z’ers carrying a credit card balance has jumped 41 percent over the past year.
By way of comparison, the number of millennials and generation xers who carry a credit card balance increased by just five percent over the same period.
Transunion says the spike in the “z” generation’s credit usage can be traced to increasing numbers of the group becoming old enough to take on mortgages, auto loan, personal loans and credit card debt for the first time.
The agency also says the z’ers’ credit card delinquencies are roughly the same as millennials and generation x’ers.

Qualcomm wasn’t kidding around when it said it wanted to break its Snapdragon chips out of phones and into drones, and now we know what that looks like. The company is teasing its UAV news for CES 2016 next week with a demo of Snapdragon Flight powered drones, complete with advanced features like autopilot.
Announced back in September, Qualcomm Flight takes the processors we’re more familiar with finding inside smartphones and tablets, and repurposes their image processing and other sensor skills to make them more suited for flying.
That’s not as far-fetched as it might ostensibly seem. The Snapdragon 820, for instance, was designed with UAV use in mind, its GPU – among other things – fettled for object recognition and more.
In the case of Snapdragon Flight, that means the front-facing stereo cameras can be used for depth perception, allowing a drone to intelligently spot and avoid obstacles as it flies under its own direction.
Another camera is used for optical flow, tracking the change in territory so that the drone can understand whereabouts it is even without a GPS signal. Of course, since this is Qualcomm we’re talking about, there’s the possibility of various combinations of WiFi, Bluetooth, and LTE among other connectivity options.
Finally, there’s a front-facing 4K camera, at least on this reference design, while 720p HD video can be beamed back in real-time to the operator.
Although it’s not specified, this prototype drone is likely to have been constructed for Qualcomm by hardware partner Yuneec – coincidentally the recipient of $60m of Intel’s cash earlier in the year – which has said it will be making Snapdragon Flight powered models in 2016.
