Exclusive to TALON Wind Turbines from A&C Green Energy.

What is Variable Pitch Technology?
This is an advanced technology that, up until NOW, was only available on those huge megawatt systems you might find in major wind farms. Easily stated, this system enables the wind turbine to maintain a constant peak output during times of higher wind.
How does Variable Pitch Technology work?
Each of the Talon's 3 blades have an attached centrifugal hammer that calculates when the generator is turning too quickly. Each blade is then automatically pitched to control the generator rotation speed.
Why is Variable Pitch Technology important?
When another wind turbine reaches its peak power (usually in high wind speeds around 25-30 mph), there is a decline in the power output curve mostly because of either blade design or tail furling. Instead of a decline in power output with increasing wind speeds, the Talon series maintains its maximum power output up to winds of 56 mph, its top working speed.
What does all this mean?
With the increased power output from the Talon wind turbine, you will have more energy to use and more energy bill savings, which means you can afford to leave your new HDTV on all month long!

Different Wind Turbine Types:
Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT)
These turbines spin around like a record and have their axis running up and down. These systems are good in urban areas where there is a limited amount of space. The drawback to these systems is that the oncoming wind pushes on both sides of the blades, creating an issue of excess drag and decreased performance.

Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWT)
Like most wind turbines and windmills. This design has been relatively untouched for centuries. Whether considering the windmills of Holland or the old windmills on the prairies of West Texas, these systems have been the most productive of all. There are essentially two types of HAWT: Upwind and Downwind.

Upwind HAWT
Upwind systems are the most common of the "small wind" market, which is reserved for generators that range in output power of up to 50kW. To face into the wind, these systems incorporate a tail vain, which in many cases, as in our PowerMax+ 20K and PowerMax+ 25K units, automatically adjusts to the angle of the wind to limit overspeed rotation.

Downwind HAWT
Facing away from the wind and without a tail, these systems are usually what appear in large-wind megawatt wind farms.

Practical Explanation:
Simply put, tail-furling and upwind systems lose power during high winds. This decrease in productivity is caused when the blades spin so fast that the oncoming wind meets a "wall of blades" and cannot pass through the blades to create the drag necessary to rotate the shaft with any efficiency. The result is a dramatic reduction on the power curve after the upwind system reaches its peak power. Mimicking the pitching blades of the megawatt turbines, the Talon series from A&C Green Energy reaches its peak power quickly and then maintains the peak output up to 56 mph. In the graph below, the Talon is represented by the BLUE curve, while the RED curve is from a typical upwind system of the "same" rated output. Because of Variable Pitch Technology, the Talon produces higher wattage output at any given wind, reaches its peak power in lower wind and is able to sustain that peak output in higher winds. This increased wattage output means higher energy production. Higher energy production means more energy savings and more money for you. The longer your Talon is in service, the more money you will earn over a similar upwind system.



Technical Explanation:


Quote:


When the wind speed is below 7 mph (3m/s), the turbine blade angle remains static and the angle (X1) formed between the blade and turbine plane is B° (X1=B°). This is the ideal angle for the blades to begin their rotation. As long as the wind speed reaches 7 mph, the blades will begin to rotate.

While rotating, the outermost edge of the blade will be driven by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the blade to tilt toward the turbine plane. As the wind speed increases, the blade angle (X1) will then decrease to 0° so that the blade is parallel with the turbine plane. At this angle, the turbine has nearly reached its rated output power.

When the wind speed is between 20 mph - 55 mph (9m/s - 25m/s), the blade angle (X1) will stay near 0° with slight fluctuations in order to maintain it’s rated power.

When the wind speed is between 55 mph - 112 mph (25m/s - 50m/s), the wind will draw the blade by the centrifugal force, so the angle (X1) will continue to decrease to a negative angle (X1 = -B°) [B° and -B° are not the same]. Under this negative angle, the blade angle will produce a resistance on the rotation of turbine blades to slow down the turbine, thus protecting it from over speed operation. The maximum rotation of the turbine will be no more than 380 RPM.





About Wind Here: Winning with Wind
Wind Here believes that harmony exists in nature everywhere and a dual usage of the land is symbiotic and brings multiple benefits to the community that are compounded beyond the energy solutions of the wind farms alone.

Wind Here plans are in place to introduce economic development stimulus concepts in wind farms and wind parks that will increase rural economies with local job creation and investment opportunities with multiple revenue streams:


Quote:


Eco parks: Nature Trails, Camping, Sports and Recreation

Wind Plex: Racing Parks, Amusement Parks, Water Parks, Restaurants, Hospitality, Golf Course, Museum, Shops

Wind Farms: Rural and Remote areas where dual usage is prohibitive beyond grazing livestock or agricultural activities

Windustrial Parks: Industrial and Commercial Green Zones powered by wind turbines



Wind Here Wind Farms and Wind Parks are professionally surveyed and site tested prior to installing appropriate wind turbine technology. Wind Here is currently conducting site suitability tests with three Talon 2 wind turbines manufactured by A & C Green Energy. http://www.acgreenenergy.com

Wind Here erects a group of wind turbines in the same location used for production of electric power. Individual turbines are interconnected with a medium voltage (usually 34.5 kV) power collection system and communications network. At a substation, this medium-voltage electrical current is increased in voltage with a transformer for connection to the high voltage transmission system.

A large wind farm may consist of a few dozen to several hundred individual wind turbines, and cover an extended area of hundreds of square miles, but the land between the turbines may be used for agricultural or other purposes. A wind farm may be located on-shore to harvest the inland thermals on hilly slopes and valleys and open plains or off-shore to take advantage of strong winds blowing over the surface of an ocean or lake.

AMBS - Amarantus BioSciences




Amarantus Therapeutics

(image header done by diva)
About Amarantus BioSciences, Inc.

Amarantus BioSciences, Inc.,(OTCBB: AMBS) formerly Jumpkicks, Inc., is a development-stage biotechnology company. The Company focuses on developing its intellectual property and technology to develop drug candidates to treat human disease. The Company owns the intellectual property rights to a therapeutic protein, the Mesencephalic-Astrocyte-derived Neurotrophic Factor (MANF). On May 25, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Amarantus Therapeutics, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation (Amarantus), and Amarantus Therapeutics, Inc., formerly JKIK Acquisition Corp. (Acquisition Sub), which is its newly formed wholly owned Delaware subsidiary. On May 25, 2011, in connection with the closing of this merger transaction, Amarantus merged with and into Amarantus Therapeutics, Inc. (the Merger). The Company focuses to carry on the business of Amarantus as its sole line of business.

Amarantus BioSciences, Inc. is engaged in the research and development of first-in-class disease-modifying treatments that address the underlying cause of cell death, known as apoptosis, associated with a wide range of diseases. The Company's most advanced product candidate,
MANF, is a therapeutic protein indicated for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and Myocardial Infarction. Currently incubating at the Parkinson's Institute in Sunnyvale, CA.

Amarantus BioSciences is the recipient of a research grant from The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.

See www.Amarantus.com.

Amarantus BioSciences , a California-based biotechnology company developing a first-in-class anti-apoptosis therapeutic protein known as MANF, and Generex Biotechnology, Inc. (OTCBB: GNBT), a Toronto-based biotechnology company developing an oral-insulin spray technology known as Oral-lyn(TM) currently in Phase III clinical trials, today announced that the companies have selected the development of a MANF-based therapeutic for the treatment of the beta cell destruction at the root of diabetes as the second program for their joint research collaboration announced on May 31, 2011. The first collaboration program announced on June 8, 2011 is for the development of a MANF-based diagnostic test to identify a sub-population at risk of developing Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.

"Taken together with the MANF-based early diabetes detection diagnostic, the potential therapeutic-diagnostic combination would represent a major step forward in the ability for physicians to manage the health of those persons most at risk of developing diabetes," said Dr. James Anderson, Senior Scientific Advisor and Director of Generex. "The development of a MANF-based therapeutic that would be administered using Generex' proprietary RapidMist(TM) technology, and potentially be used in combination with Oral-lyn(TM), would represent a significant, new competitive advantage over other therapeutic interventions currently being studied and dramatically increase convenience and patient well-being."

"MANF's profile of activity indicates that it has significant potential to impact the beta cell dysfunction at the root of impaired insulin secretion in patients leading to clinical diabetes," said Dr. John Commissiong, Chief Scientific Officer of Amarantus. "MANF's ability to correct protein misfolding and mitigate apoptosis may slow or prevent the progression of patients with beta cell dysfunction into full blown diabetes."

"The partnership with Generex will allow Amarantus to exploit its technologies in the field of diabetes through its wholly-owned subsidiary Amarantus MA," said Martin D. Cleary, Chairman & CEO of Amarantus. "These collaboration programs are a major step toward the validation of the enormous potential of the MANF platform that Amarantus is judiciously advancing for the treatment of the apoptosis associated with a wide range of human disorders, including pre-diabetes and diabetes."

"Given the recent positive preliminary results from our 084 and Prevoral trials with Oral-lyn(TM), we now believe we better understand the best use for our Oral-lyn(TM) product and feel it is appropriate to plan for a partnership that will add ground-breaking scientific research to support Generex's future pipeline of diabetes product candidates," said Dr. Gerald Bernstein, Vice President of Medical Affairs for Generex Biotechnology. "Today's announcement affirms our commitment to the potential of our RapidMist(TM) technology to successfully deliver protein drug candidates to treat diabetes."

BEFORE THERE WAS TEQUILA~There was VUQO~Due Diligence



BEFORE THERE WAS TEQUILA~There was VUQO~Due Diligence



BEFORE THERE WAS TEQUILA, THERE WAS VUQO

The history of VuQo Premium Vodka dates back at least four centuries. VuQo Premium Vodka is based on an ancient technology practiced in the Philippines long before the Spanish conquistadores set foot on its shores.

It is the same technology that Filipino seafarers brought to Mexico through the Spanish Galleon trades to create the now popular tequila. Coconut vodka was the drink in those ancient times, on those far eastern shores. It was, in a manner of speaking, a tribal drink, one that sealed brotherhoods and with which the day's bounty was enjoyed and shared. It is this spirit that VuQo Premium Vodka hopes to recreate and celebrate today.

VuQo Holdings Corp. is a publicly owned corporation, and through its subsidiaries, the company engages in developing, producing, distilling, bottling, packaging, distributing, and marketing wines and spirits.

The company offers VuQo Premium Vodka, the only vodka in the world distilled from coconut nectar. VuQo (40 alcohol by volume) is continuously distilled and filtered multiple times, and is packaged in an elegantly designed frosted bottle. Currently, VuQo is distributed in the United States in California, Texas, and Georgia, as well as Guam and the Philippines.

VuQo also owns the brand Haliya Light Fruit Wines, which are wines handcrafted in small batches using fruits that thrive in the Philippines. Haliya is available in two variants: Mango Wine (13 alcohol-by-volume) and Black Plum Wine (12 ). Both are packaged in traditional wine bottles with award-winning label designs. Haliya is currently distributed in the Philippines, Guam, and the United States.

VuQo Premium Vodka

VuQo Premium Vodka is made of coconut nectar, unlike traditional vodkas distilled from wheat or potatoes.

The core ingredient that makes VuQo comes from Philippine coconut trees - the best in the world grown on the country's nutrient-rich volcanic soil and tropical climate.

The healthy coconut trees produce coconut flowers thirty feet above the ground. The flower is cut, and every morning so its sweet coconut liquid is collected and readied for fermentation and distillation to create a vodka of utmost quality.
The history of VuQo Premium Vodka dates back at least four centuries. VuQo Premium Vodka is based on an ancient technology practiced in the Philippines long before Spanish conquistadores set foot on its shores.

It is the same technology that Filipino seafarers brought to Mexico through the Spanish Galleon trades to create the now popular tequila. Coconut vodka was the drink in those ancient times, on those far eastern shores. It was, in a manner of speaking, a tribal drink, one that sealed brotherhoods and with which the day's bounty was enjoyed and shared. It is this spirit that VuQo Premium Vodka hopes to recreate and celebrate today.
VuQo Premium Vodka is the only true coconut vodka, as it is distilled from coconut nectar and not just infused with coconut flavor.

After the finest coconut nectar has been selected and fermented, it is distilled multiple times, cleansing it of all impurities. The product is then blended with water and sent through a series of activated carbon filters. The end result is pure perfection.
