Window washing?
So whats happening out there. Well the Nano business alliance are organising their annual get together to educate and raise funds for investment, you can read about it here.It's in DC so be there if you care.
In May the Nanotechnology trade association will be having its forth get together, this one is more about science than money. It will be at the NY Marriot Financial centre hotel go here to have a read. Although I would have thought that anyone who knew better would hesitate going to a nanoevent, I mean how long would it last and how big would be? Surely it would be over before we got there?
Nanotechnology regardless of the weapons being researched at the moment seem to be able to clean up the environment. Nano sized particles of iron are being used to clear up poisons in soil or groundwater. carbon tetrachloride often found in chemical spills and used in cleaning fluids and degreasing agents is broken down by the iron nanoparticles and one would assume then made harmless. It apparently also causes cancer in animals so more whey hey for the nanoresearch.
Emergency Filtration Products Inc. recently announced that it has received confidential and official notification from the United States Department of Defense approving the use of its filter technology for the U.S. military. This notification included specific reference to the company's protective masks as well as an interest to develop filtration systems for use in tanks, vehicles and shelter (buildings). I am wondering how much the sand in the middle east may have had to do with this
Nanogen (hey you read about them already) developer of advanced diagnostic products, recently announced the appointment of Robert Saltmarsh as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Saltmarsh joined Nanogen as Vice President of Corporate Development last September. In addition to participating in business development initiatives, he assumed oversight of all financial operations and investor relations for the company. So let me put it to you this way, if you don't want to invest, send me the cash and I'd be happy to do it.However I am betting this had something to do with the patent issued the day before his appointment or rather he had some thing to do with it . The '053 patent relates to methods of making a covalently bonded permeation layer on a microchip. The technology described in the patent relates to Nanogen's advanced chip designs, which are used for analysis of biological molecules such as nucleic acids for diagnostic applications.
And finally the Lotus flower. No I haven't gone all Tantric or Yogic on you. Well if you have a small machine you can never really see how do you oil the moving parts? Well believe it or not you use the same technology to make a window clean itself, or even the same technology a lotus leaf uses to dry itself. ?? don't believe me? Well its all about Bumps and friction. So just go here and have a read and let me know when you think the collection of perambulating men with wet cloths and buckets will finally be put out of job. Thinking small to get big. Hmm somehow I don't think that should be my mantra.
