Our newest product
I have invented a tobacco free snus, which
has several benefits over traditional stop smoking aides.
It does contain nicotine.
It is very tasty.
It is cheaper than the patch or the gum.
It is less dry in your mouth than other snus.
None of the expensive cigarette taxes apply to our products.
Contains 0% of the cancer causing agents in tobbacco products.*
Contains Nicotine.
Pleasant tasting.
No teeth staining tobacco juices.
Less dry pouch.
Little or no burning sensation from regular snus.
Did I mention it tastes good!?!
So now you can still get your Nicotine fix but do away with
the risk of getting cancer and other nasty illnesses you
would normally run the risk of getting from cigarettes.
I have some pictures I will be posting and setting up a
website for orders etc.
The price will be somewhere between $3 and $4 a can.
Like normal snus, each can will contain 15 pouches,
and last between 15 and 30 minutes.
I will have 2 different strength products. One for nomal
smokers and one for heavy smokers.
I will be meeting with potential investors this week
to try and get a small factory going.
So stop making your teeth brown and get back your
super smile and improve your breath. It will actually
make your breath more pleasant than normal non-smokers.
*******************
We hope to bring this product to the market within the
next 2-3 months internationally, in the meantime, we
will be producing small quantities for immediate resell.

Gas Hydrates in our own back yard
Exerpt:
"A future energy source?
At the sea surface, decomposing hydrate feels like cold Alka Seltzer fizzing and popping on your skin. It's fun to light gas hydrates with a match and watch the hydrocarbons burn like a candle, leaving behind only slightly salty water. Watching gas hydrate burn and produce heat shows its value as an energy source. Right now there is worldwide interest in exploiting energy from hydrates."

Server Energy
A very interesting site if you are a technologist such as myself
and also have an interest in energy:
http://www.ddj.com/go-parallel/?cid=email_ms_entsoft_030609_v2
It is about Parallel Programming and how to make efficient use
of multi core processing.
How does this affect energy?
Power consumption.
More efficient use of power used for processing means less wasted
energy, and we can all agree that is a good thing.
This technology doesn't necessarily lower power
consumption, but it does however allow a more efficient use
of what you are already consuming. Smarter use of energy.
I think eventually that will help lower energy use,
if you can do your work more efficiently and waste less
power, you are less likely to add more processing power,
which means you will ultimately use less power.
Baby steps.

Biohydrogen- Worth a closer look.
I spent today collecting new samples of strains of fast growing microalgae with Travis Leogrande one of our field researcher.
We are looking into a very insidious form of algae to "repurpose".
We also came across this interesting snippet courtesy of the Wikipedia:
"Algae can be grown to produce biohydrogen. In 1939 a German researcher named Hans Gaffron, while working at the University of Chicago, observed that the algae he was studying, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (a green-alga), would sometimes switch from the production of oxygen to the production of hydrogen.[7] Gaffron never discovered the cause for this change and for many years other scientists failed to repeat his findings. In the late 1990s professor Anastasios Melis, a researcher at the University of California at Berkeley, discovered that if the algae culture medium is deprived of sulfur it will switch from the production of oxygen (normal photosynthesis), to the production of hydrogen. He found that the enzyme responsible for this reaction is hydrogenase, but that the hydrogenase lost this function in the presence of oxygen. Melis found that depleting the amount of sulfur available to the algae interrupted its internal oxygen flow, allowing the hydrogenase an environment in which it can react, causing the algae to produce hydrogen. [8] Chlamydomonas moeweesi is ... a good strain for the production of hydrogen.
Source:
en.wikipedia.org"
We believe we can create a similar effect from Lyngbya sp. but we need further consultation. We are going to attempt to verify some information with a USF professor.
I have not yet spoken with him, but intend on contacting him.
We also believe we are a good candidate for a particular grant with our Non-profit
side of Venturi Industries.

In The Lab
This week some of our staff will be working on a special algae hybridization project,
if successful we could be one of the first Green companies that are producing our
own special algae strain for high oil production volumes.
The different approaches we are taking are:
1. Focusing on those micro algae we have found to contain an oil content of up to 70%+
2. Generation modeling
3. Hybridization of micro algae with high oil characteristics to produce larger
micro algae cells by volume.
Bigger truely is better, a larger surface area is a higher concentration of oil
per cm*. I don't know of any other labs focusing on becoming algae farms for the
specific purpose of selling seed plants.
We believe this will give us a definitive edge in these new markets.
We will be looking at data from Utah State University, in one of their projects
they state by using light more efficiently they can yield a 10 to 20x higher
surface area.
The specifics:
Upon analyzing Cladophora sp. with a surface area of (63.5 m2/g, N2 gas adsorption)
under an atomic force microscope, we surmise from our generation model that
the new strain Aerodifus sp. would have a surface area of roughly surface area (76.3 m2/g, N2 gas adsorption) after crystalization of cells in both cell structures
are allowed to take place.
This process would allow for the production of cellulose powder for easier processing.
This process would happen at the end of the life cycle before drying and gasification.
*per volume of occupied cylindrical container.

Rapid growing micro-algae discovery
We believe to have discovered a strain of micro-algae that grows at the highest rate out of all the different 30,000 or so types.
This particular algae may surpass the Spinulina in reproducing.
This particular algae may surpass the Spinulina in reproducing.
Current and ongoing projects
Here are some of our current projects, as some of you may already know,
our sister company NetData invests upwards of 60-90%+ of its profits into Venturi Industries.
We are an Open Source Hybrid Commercial/Non-Profit Company, so this list is
an all inclusive list of open projects (although not an exhaustive list)
1. Citrus Green Map project
2. S.H.A.R.E. Community
3. Windbelt Mark II prototyping week
4. The Find Engine (A radically new search engine algorithm)
5. Kinderfun Toys (An online Toy & Game rental company for ages 4+)
7. Riverstone Realty (CMS Systems for Private Realty Investors)
8. Biofuel Research week
9. Biocentric (A biological network working with fertility clinics)
10. Centerpoint (A Social network integration technology site)
More To be announced...
Current Objectives:
Network leveraging to find Micro Financing opportunities and investment capital.
Further work to establish Fundlink a Micro-financing network.
We are also researching commercialization of the Hexayurt project, more details
to come.
Each commercial enterprise will be allotting a large percentage of
revenues towards the further research and development work here at Venturi Industries.
