"New ideas create more and better new products and services; create more wealth."
Repost from Green Energy in the PHL | May 24, 2013
For as early as 2010, TPO (Third Party Ownership) and leasing was a non existent industry. Thanks to 2 Stanford graduates (Stanford has a lot of contribution to technology and innovation) who founded SunRun, TPO is now an industry practice and standard. It enabled increase uptake on solar ownership in USA.
The duo of Lyn Jurich and Ed Fenster found out that the 3 major obstacles to PV ownership was: money, money, money. Therefore the solution was to finance the ownership through leasing and third party ownership

We must have heard a lot about graphene a modern space age material. It is the relative of graphite used in L- ion batteries. However it can be double its power by having boron mixed with its molecular lattice. This was discovered in Rice University by Dr. Yakobson that adding boron to graphene doubles its energy storage capacity

This is a repost from Alternative Green Energy in the PHL. This is about a low tech solution to energy storage. High tech solutions call for better, high capacity batteries which employ state of the art technology.
The other options include the Malaya solution: pump water up at night at Caliraya dam when there is excess power, and let the stored water at Caliraya dam run turbines to provide electricity during daytime.
This alternative solution is about compressed air in Washington state

The nuideashare blog had error due to swamping of assignment submission
Ateneo Innovation and Entrepreneurship
"New ideas create more and better new products and services; create more wealth."
I have been unable to view assignments at this site because it was swamped by submissions on the deadline. The free blog bandwidth was unable to accommodate the deluge of blogsends: hence;
l. The blog authors cant access the site (that included me)
2. No further blogsends were accepted and blogsends bounced back or there were mailer demons notifications.
Lesson learned: submissions will not be tolerated on a deadline (if ever I teach again) Students must submit slowly and weekly.
Now I have the grim task of posting and reading those blogsend that were not read after coaching the blog to open and wake up

NU 12- New Spending Habits/ Routine by Highlander
NU 12- New Spending Habits/ Routine by Highlander
Be Kind to Yourself.
I am a woman who hates to shop! Yes, that's right. I was brought up by frugal parents, not to mention my Scottish heritage. So we pretty much don't let anything go to waste.
My Spending Habits:
- I wear dresses that I've had for the past 5 years
- I wear hand-me-downs
- When I shop, I have a specific item in mind to buy. Once I purchase it I get out of the mall.
- My bed is old which I've been using since I was 5 years old. It doesn't help my back, since I have already had spine surgery done.
- I used to drive a second hand car, I purchased from my father's estate.
I've pretty been frugal with myself. My husband has told me time and again that I deserved better.
Finally, when I turned 40 I rewarded myself for my hard work and giving myself my due. I realized I should treat myself better. So, I went out and bought my dream car as a 40 year old present to myself. I also bought an orthopaedic bed for my back, my comfort & better sleep.
I have not been ostentatious. My spending habits are very practical. I buy what I need. And I buy quality. I buy "Value for Money". But what is new? I give better value to myself, and buy what I need and the same time being kind and rewarding myself. 3
NU 12- New Product/ Improvement Peanut Flavored Rat Killers by Highlander
NU 12- New Product/ Improvement on Rat Killers
by Highlander
Peanut Butter Rat Killers! (Say What?!) When I tell people on how to best kill rats, they do a double take look at me as if I were crazy.
But it works! I've done it, tried it! This is not for the faint hearted.
And this has been proven (by me) to work best on rat infestation.
I'm not talking about mice, but rats as big as kittens or even bigger.
What to do:
Mix your rat Killer powder or granules with PEANUT BUTTER! Place enough peanut butter to cover the colour and traces of your rat killer and place it on a slice of bread. Leave it out in areas of your home where you know the rats paths are.
Make sure there are no children about that might accidentally eat the bread!
The Peanut Butter masks and attracts the rats.
Within the next 2 weeks, you will start finding dead rats.
My suggestion: make peanut butter flavoured rat killers! 4
NU 12 by Tinker Bell - TEACHERS GOT TALENT
Date Submitted: March 22, 2013
TEACHERS GOT TALENT
We've been hearing that thousands of experienced Filipino teachers leaving the country to work abroad because of poor working conditions, a dim chance of career advancement, low salaries, too much work. Hence, a generation of school children is left behind hungry for quality education. On the other hand, children who belong to well-to-do families are getting bored in class. Thanks to their exposure to the sounds and vivid graphics of today's video games and TV shows.
What can we do to address both problems? Well what about having a nationwide search for the best teachers in the country just like Pilipinas Got Talent or Talentadong Pinoy? Students from all over the country can join by submitting a 30 to 45-minute video of their favorite teacher as he/she conducts his/her classes. All videos submitted will be evaluated by a committee composed of educators from DEPED, professors of top universities in the country, and entertainers. The number of winners will depend on how many subjects are being taught in school. Top ten teachers will be selected for each subject. The ten finalists per subject will be in a reality TV show compelling teachers to showcase their best. Criteria for selection will include: student impact (teachers should be able to get students attention and make them learn a given subject); enthusiasm in teaching; content; delivery of teaching material among others. The committee will select a winner for each subject. The winning teachers will be professionally videotaped for a year in their actual classrooms while they are teaching. To make it more interesting for pre-schoolers or grade school students, professional video game creators, graphic artists will be tasked to make the videos into DVDs and incorporate sounds and visual effects which will make everything more interesting for our target market. The final result will be a collection of DVDs with all the subjects taught in a more interesting and innovative way.
So, the next time a school will lack teachers, DEPED will make sure that TV sets are available for the school children to learn their lessons using the DVDs. 4

How the tower of world's tallest building was erected?
Ateneo Innovation and Entrepreneurship
"New ideas create more and better new products and services; create more wealth."
I saw at Discovery channel two night ago how the world's tallest building was constructed at Dhubai. They encountered a lot of problems, but each time the Engineers came up with brilliant solution. The toughest problem was how to erect the l00 ft pylon at the top of the building. The pylon could not be erected by crane: there was no crane capable of erecting at that level, and the helicopter could not be steady enough to hold the crane in place for erection because of the high winds.
Their solution? To erect the tower from within the building.
They cut the pylon into three sections which could be bolted. The three sections were jacked up and bolted.
After the erection was completed, the workers and the engineers clapped at their own ingenuity and achievement.
Amazing!
