When we talk about life extension we don’t talk about keeping
people alive through artificial means, we actually mean
extending the normal, natural life of Man.

Definition: Life is a multi-faceted concept. Life may refer to
the ongoing process of which living things are a part; the
period between the birth (or a point at which the entity can be
considered to be living) and death of an organism; the condition
of an entity that has been born (or reached the point in its
existence at which it can be established to be alive) and has
yet to die; and that which makes a living thing alive.

Source: Wikipedia.org The term Life Extension now is centrally used
in promoting and selling Vitamins and indeed Vitamins or
Minerals seem to play an important role in extending life and in
earning money for Vitamin manufacturers.

There is also the Life Extension Foundation. The Life
Extension Foundation has been around since 1978 and is the
bulwark protecting the US population against the FDA.(Food and
Drug Administration).

The FDA seems to be controlled by pharmaceutical companies and
as such has a vested interest in keeping promising Life
Extension products such as Melatonin off the market. The
Foundation vs.The FDA

The greatest obstacle to longer life is the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), which blocks medical progress and prevents
Americans from learning about and obtaining safe-and-able
therapies. To provide its members with the information and
therapies they need for optimal health and longevity, The
Foundation has been challenging the authority of the FDA since
1980. In response, the FDA has been trying to destroy The
Foundation by putting its leaders-Saul Kent and William
Faloon-into prison, thus far without success.

The FDA Censors Truthful Information About Life Extension
Companies that sell nutrients and drug products are prohibited
from informing the public about the benefits of their products
unless they first receive “approval” from the FDA at an average
cost of $231 million dollars. The FDA Delays The Approval of
Lifesaving Drugs Inappropriate delays in approval of critical
drugs available in other countries causes thousands of
unnecessary deaths every year.

The FDA Prevents Americans From Obtaining Unapproved Lifesaving
Drugs From Other Countries There are 5,000 safe-and-effectual
drugs used throughout the world that the FDA prevents Americans
from obtaining. Durk Pearson and Sandy Shaw wrote a book back in
the 70’s called Life Extension: a practictical scientific
approach. They laid the groundwork for Life Extension by
practicing on their own bodies by taking controversial
supplements or massive doses of supplements, and documenting the
results within their own bodies. Their research led to
anti-aging breakthoughs that have been exciting and significant.

Most Popular Life Extension Products: CoQ10 CoQ10 is a nutrient
found in each cell of the body. CoQ10 — also spelled CoQ 10 –
is found in foods, particularly in fish and meats. In addition
to playing a significant role in the energy system of each of
our cells, CoQ10 is also believed to have antioxidant
properties. Many people who take CoQ10 notice that this nutrient
enhances physical energy.

Melatonin Melatonin is released from the pineal gland and helps
cardinaltain tissues in a young state of health. Melatonin keeps our
circadian cycle in tune as it communicates with the body’s
cells.Not only does this hormone work to fundamentaltain cell health,
it appears to regulate a system of self-repair and
regeneration.When this dwindlees, our biological functions are
impaired. Melatonin seems to work to help improve sleep.
Melatonin seems to increase the speed of falling asleep and
seems to add to the quality of sleep in about 60% of people who
use it.

DHEA DHEA is a steroid hormone, a chemical relation of
testosterone and estrogen. It is made from cholesterol by the
adrenal glands, which sit atop each kidney. Studies in animals
have shown that DHEA can prevent or delay the onset of cancer,
“hardening” of the arteries, lethal viral infections, lowered
immunity, obesity, and diabetes. Second Generation Life Extension

Ray Kurzweil’s life in the Future In Fantastic Voyage, high-tech
visionary Ray Kurzweil teams up with life-extension expert Terry
Grossman, M.D., to consider the awesome benefits to human health
and longevity promised by the leading edge of medical
science–and what you can do today to take full advantage of
these startling advances. Ray plans to live forever.

No, not just in the history books, but as a living, breathing,
healthy human being. His idea is that if you can manage to keep
your body in good shape for the next 20 years NanoTechnology and
BioScience will be so advanced that you can replace or regrow
parts of your body so it will never wear out.

Ray has a long track record of being a genius, ranging from the
invention of a Synthesizer to Speech Recognition to Stock Market
Pattern Recognition. At 35, Kurzweil was diagnosed with type 2
diabetes. Unsatisfied with his medical treatment, he stopped
taking insulin injections and crafted his own diet and
supplement program. Today, at 54, he shows no signs of the
disease. These are his ideas for eternal life:

Bridge one: aggressively slowing down the aging process. Bridge
two: relying on BioTechnology. Bridge three: the use of
Nanotechnology.

All I Need Is the Air that I breathe! Does anyone here remember
that “catchy tune”? Yes it was as true then as it is now,
because without the proper air, we tend to die. But thankfully
we have our “Global Polly’s” working on our side (?) to love and
protect their “Global Little Children”, at least one would hope!
So, is this the case? Do these “caring guardians” help and look
over us?

A good example would be to show you how these “Guardians” have
done away with “Leaded Petrol” recently, so as we can “all” live
and breathe cleaner-greener non harmful air.

Another good example of seeing our taxes at work would also be,
to give these “World Leaders” their due credit for having the
foresight and guidance to steer us in the right direction, (?)
and to educate (brain wash) us through advertisements which tell
us how “Clean And Green” this new “Un-Leaded Petrol” is. Yes I
am now “conditioned” to use this wonderful new product! In fact
it sounds so good and safe, that I might even try mixing a
little in with the soda that I will have with my dinner tonight!
How could I go wrong?

Yes I bet we are all tucked up right now, in our “cozy little
hideaway” contemplating our navel, as there is not much else we
need to worry about, apart from sleeping, knowing full well that
our “Polly Watcher’s” are watching over us. Or are they? Did
they just spend all the money that I have worked for all of my
life on that “Executive Luncheon” for six over an hour to
discuss the marketing plan for this new wonder fuel? Ah well it
doesn’t matter!

Do You Know why all new cars have

Catalytic Converters?

Yes! That’s right! They are there to “Burn Off” the pollutant’s,
and “Carcinogenic Gasses” which an “Internal combustion engine”
produces when it is running.

My we are moving through this quickly!

So furtherfresh, we see that these “Catalytic Converters” MUST BE
at the “correct temperature”, before they can start to do this.
(This temperature can take up to 10 minutes to become correct).
Hey! Hang on a minute! what happens to the “Poisonous Pollutant
Gasses” while this “Warm up” takes place?

That’s right again you guessed it! Yes they are being released
into our lungs!

Hang on, your saying that we are breathing in poisonous gasses?

Yes that’s right. And another thing just dawned on me! Why would
“Our Protectors” (?) not have had the “fore-sight” to not
“encourage us to use it” in motorized vehicles such as older
cars, lawn mowers, chain saws, and all the other engines which
do not have these catalytic converters fitted to them? And then
another thing just entered my mind. What about the cars that
have these converters, but they no longer work, and are faulty?

Hey hang on Fred, don’t go yet! I still want to talk to you
about starting that “gas mask shop” you were coughing over the
other day.

Are ‘Ethics’ an issue when global ‘Greed’ Is on The agenda?

I ask you this question, and I would like to see your reply’s
and other questions in our forum for us to discuss. Till then,
breathe easy and may love be with you. (C.N.)

Euro norms and beyond for automobiles

—————————————————————–
—————

The magic epithets ‘Euro-3 or Euro-4 conformant’ for
automobiles, signifying the fulfillment of emission norms, have
become the hallmark of environmentally-friendly vehicles. These
vehicular emission-control legislative norms evolved in Europe
and similar norms crystallized in other industrially advanced
countries over many decades of experience will not serve the
purpose in many developing countries such as India.

These developed countries had the necessary lead-time to develop
the infrastructure needed, in terms of clean fuel and lube oil
supply, proper roads and traffic regulation, and periodic
vehicle crucialtenance programmes. They were all ‘tuned’ to reap
the full benefits envisaged by the stringent norms.

These norms as formulated were crucially structured for the liquid
fuels of petroleum origin, such as petrol and diesel oil, and
address limits for regulating the exhaust discharge of carbon
monoxide (CO), unburned hydrocarbons (UHC), oxides of nitrogen
(NOx), and smoke and particulates for diesel vehicles. These
norms need continuing review whenever alternative fuels are used.

For example, non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) and aldehyde
emissions may be significant when LPG, CNG and alcohol fuels are
used to power vehicles; these are gradually emerging as
increasingly used alternative fuels for petrol and diesel oil.
As it stands, without going into numbers, these norms are
stringent and pose a challenging opportunity for the automobile
and ancillary industries in the development of clean and fuel-
efficient automobiles.

As far as India is concerned, our automobile industry must also
face this challenge if it has to export spare parts and
automobiles to global markets. But the imposition of such
stringent norms in Indian conditions will reap few benefits in
the current situation.

Just one revealing example could illustrate this point.
Three-way catalytic converters (TWC) are fitted on the vehicles
now to fulfil the requirements of the Euro norms. This requires
electronic fuel injection systems, such as single-point
injection (SPI) and multi-point injection (MPI). TWCs are
fitments required on the vehicles to clean up the exhaust gases
by simultaneously destroying all the three regulated pollutants
– CO, UHC and NOx.

For this to happen, an electronically controlled fuel- air ratio
device is incorporated which is expected to manage this ratio at
the desired (stoichiometric) level. This can occur only when
steady speed running is possible. With our traffic congestion
and frequent stop-and-go (transient) driving, is this ever
possible?

Next, with the spiralling of the petrol price, is it desirable
to run a vehicle on stoichiometric ratio, which does not give
higher kilometres per litre of petrol? But the regulation
requires mandatory fitment of TWC, and ironically, even
carburetted vehicles, which are not adaptable for electronic
fuel management, were fitted with TWCs and marketed.

The customer pays for the TWC, which is expensive as the
catalyst contains noble metals, like platinum and rubidium.
Besides, any combustion irregularities, such as missing and
driving under transient conditions, damage these catalysts. Even
though, lead-free petrol is mandatory by regulation for
leadingtaining the activity of the TWCs, the prevailing
adulteration of petrol can poison and irreversibly damage the
catalyst.

In advanced countries, mandatory fitment of “on-board
diagnostics” (OBCs) continuously monitor the malfunctions of the
engine, damaging the TWCs. In the absence of this, it is
anybody’s guess how many so-called Euro norm-conformant vehicles
are doing their job for a greener environment! Blissfully
ignorant of this, the customer is constrained to pay for
costlier equipment. It would as well be better not to enforce
fitment of TWCs till the priorities are met.

The above is not the only example of inappropriateness of
refined Euro regulations at this point of time in India. Without
going into details, insistence of Emission Under Control (EUC)
certificates, and novel design features like four-valve engines,
double overhead cam designs, variable-valve, variable- timing
electronic control, and five-speed gear-shift, and other
technically advanced features, would pay little dividends as the
prevailing mis-match of infrastructural needs stand.

Our auto industries are striving to manufacture these items
conformant to Euro standards to get into global market. And many
of the ancillary industries are facing these challenges
creditably. As far as national requirements are concerned, the
enforcement of advanced Euro emission standards would only
result in the borrowing of ‘futile imported technology’ — in
the words of Mr V. R. Krishna Iyer, retired Supreme Court Judge!

The priorities are the provision of clean fuel, according to
specifications, development of road infrastructure, traffic
regulation, and above all, eliminating other uncontrolled
sources of air-pollution. India still relies on the burning of
non-commercial fuels, such as firewood, cow-dung cakes and other
combustible materials which discharge further pollutants to
atmosphere.

The pavements of our cities are encroached on by fast- food
stalls, auto workshops involving welding, and static electric
generators, discharging harmful gases directly onto the
pedestrians. Moreover, there is no restricted area stipulated
for fireworks displays during festivities. These are major
sources of pollutants discharging particulates and carcinogenic
gases. These sources are not noticed or quantified. These may
well exceed those from the auto-vehicles.

The Euro norms would only be active after controlling the
pollution from these major sources. The priority ought to be the
development of fuel-efficient and clean vehicles for mobility of
the common public, such as two- and three- wheelers, and utility
vehicles such as much-used or abused fish carts. Development of
alternative fuels from renewable sources such as alcohols must
take the priority over the imposition of Euro standards.

Indeed, India could well skip Euro 3 and Euro 4 norms for
domestic application with very little impact on the total
quality of the atmosphere. These standards are structured for
the use of liquid fuels from petroleum. The use of CNG, LPG and,
greater desirably, ethanol may require entirely new regulations
beyond Euro standards as they stand now. This would give heavier
time for development of alternative fuel technology from
renewable sources.

New modes of transportation, such as battery-powered vehicles,
hybrid vehicles and ultimately fuel-cell powered vehicles must
engage the attention of our scientists. Advances in information
and communications technologies have been phenomenal.
Figuratively speaking, the future automobile may well run on
information, with automatic guidance and control. Power plants
may be remotely located so as not to interfere with the streets.
Intelligent transport systems aim at such a mobility plan for
the future. This may seem a distant dream, but it may become a
reality sooner than we think.

Petrol

Petrol can contain up to 5% of benzene, a known human carcinogen
with a Maximum Exposure Limit (MEL) of 5 ppm. Petrol is
consequently classified as Carcinogenic, Category 2 as it
contains 0.1% or higher of a known carcinogen.

Typically, monitoring by oil companies indicates that filling
station occupational exposures are below 1 ppm (8 hour TWA) even
for pump attendant operated sites. Many controls can be
implemented/chieftained to ensure that exposures are capitaltained
as far below the 5 ppm MEL as possible, i.e.

minimisation of spills, leaks or fumes provision of hygiene
measures including washing facilities designation of areas and
installations which may be contaminated with petrol and the use
of warning signs safe storage, handling and disposal practices
and procedures to deal with spillages monitoring, which is
requisite under the Carcinogens Approved Code of Practice
information, instruction and training.

The 2006-2011 World Outlook for Air Purifiers, Filters, and Cleaners
WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?

The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure, therefore, of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The “market” is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level, at the wholesale level, the manufacturing level, and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain, assuming all levels chieftain minimum profitability).

The latent demand for air purifiers, filters, and cleaners is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact, latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e., not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors, including the lack of international openness, cultural barriers to consumption, regulations, and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general, however, latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.

For reasons discussed later, this report does not consider the notion of “unit quantities”, only total latent revenues (i.e., a calculation of price times quantity is never made, though one is implied). The units used in this report are.
