FOOD SUMMIT.
A food summit is underway and investors are expected to storm the event,and contribute to the food security scheme. A large number of value chains are on the platform,but my area is the poultry value chain.
This discussion will be elaborate with various dimensions and most of all exciting interviews with key players in the industry and prospective investors,so hop in ,the train has left the station.
AN EXPOSE ON THE POULTRY VALUE CHAIN.
Its my duty to break the myth about the poultry value chain, this is an industry where you can profit on various level if you harness the opportunities.
Welcome to the poultry business:look at the diagram, it shows several areas for investment.to make profit. These stages also have subsets,giving opportunities for investment based on various financial capacity and target market.

Building 3D printed tanks by hand ..
Michael Sng is a one-man tank factory. The Singapore-based designer hand-built the walking mecha toy Codename: Colossus from 435 3D-printed parts. A former graphic designer, Sng previously sold Stikfas, a stick-figure toy he co-created, to Hasbro.
Colossus started out as a way to learn new skills. "I didn't know a lot of electronics," Sng, 38, says. "I learned from scratch."He designed the toy as a 3D CAD file, printing each part on a small UP Plus 2 printer. "It's 60cm tall, but none of the parts is larger than 12cm long," he explains. "They're put together with hundreds of screws."
Sng also hand-wired the working legs, guns and lights, and hand-painted each part, including the interior and tiny characters. (The tank's shell conceals a cannon that fires table tennis balls.) The process took 18 months and cost Sng more than $3,000 (£2,070).
Colossus was part passion project, part audition: under the Machination Studios moniker, Sng's conceived a fictional universe for the toys, set after the first world war "where air power never happened, and tanks just got bigger and bigger."

ROBO -BEES; THE FUTURE OF RESCUE MISSIONS.
This tiny robot, developed by team at Harvard University, is "inspired by the biology of a bee and the insect's hive behavior".This 'Robo-bee' can land on ceilings, perch on precarious objects and help out in search and rescue missions.
The team aim to push advances in miniature robotics and the design of compact high-energy power sources, spur innovations in ultra-low-power computing and electronic smart sensors and refine coordination algorithms to manage independent machines.
Robots such as the Robo-bee have a number of uses – pollinating a field of crops, for example, or in search and rescue missions. The tiny size and ability to land and perch on ceilings and walls, it could potentially be used for reconnaissance missions during natural disasters, as well as "hazardous environment exploration", military surveillance or climate mapping.
Harvard team said that by modelling a robot's "physical and behavioral robustness" on insects, they could carry out complex tasks "faster, more reliably and more efficiently". The robot perches on ceilings and walls using "electrostatic adhesion" – the same kind of energy that makes a "static sock stick to a pants leg or a balloon to the wall".
The structure is also incredibly light – around 100mg, the same weight as a real bee. The team will now work on improving their model by changing the mechanical design so the robot can "perch on any surface", not just ceilings.

POLLUTION IN THE OCEAN AND EFFECT ON ANIMALS.

When next you want to throw trash in the sea,remember its coming back to you somehow.
Use the trash can always!!! Wait ! There is a floating trash can .see how it works.
How to stop environmental pollution using automated floating rubbish bins .
The Seabin is a dock-based automated rubbish bin that catches floating plastic, oil and fuels. Australian surfers Andrew Turton, 40, and Peter Ceglinski, 37, developed the bin after witnessing growing pollution in marinas. Oceans need trash cans .
Ceglinski's invention offers a 24/7 alternative to the expensive "trash boats" traditionally used by harbors and marinas, which clean by scooping up rubbish in nets.
The Seabin is most efficient in the marina's problem spots, where predominant currents amass heavy pollution. It's estimated to catch up to 1.5kg of rubbish per day - removing around half a tonne per year from the 250,000 tonnes the oceans are believed to hold.
The Seabin is fixed to a floating dock, above the water surface.
A pump creates a flow that sucks rubbish inside a recycled polyethylene bin and into a natural-fibre bag. The water is then pumped back into the marina. And don't worry about fish getting trapped: in four years, the Seabins haven't caught a single one.
"Fish simply stay away from the surface and the current that the Seabin produces," says Ceglinski. If any did get caught, they would be freed by marina staff while emptying the bin.
French manufacturer Poralu Marine is making and distributing the first Seabins, which are scheduled to be ready to ship in late 2016.
