Europe Meets Bioethanol Demand
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 18:10:57 11/24/09
Europe's largest bioethanol refinery is nearing completion in the north east of England. Owners of the plant say it will meet one third of the UK's bioethanol demand once it's up and running. They say that's the equivalent of taking 300,000 cars off the road. The world is running low on fuel and some now hope bioethanol will help top up the shortage. The European Union has set a target that requires each member state to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions through energy by 20% by the year 2020. The UK aims to have 15% of all petrol and diesel sold in the UK come from renewable sources by 2020. Within that figure the road transport fuel target is 10%. Once up and running, owners Ensus, say it will produce more than 400 million litres of bioethanol - that's one third of the UK's bioethanol demand. visit ebrunews.com for more info and news.

Scientists will soon get insights into the origins of the universe after switching on the world’s largest atom smasher for the first time since the 10 billion US dollar machine suffered a spectacular failure more than a year ago. There was cheering among scientists as the giant machine began circulating beams of protons in a significant leap forward for the Large Hadron Collider located deep underground in a 17-mile circular tunnel under the Swiss-French border. The European Organization for Nuclear Research has taken the restart of the collider step by step to avoid further setbacks as it moves toward new scientific experiments - probably starting in January - regarding the makeup of matter and the universe. It has undergone a year of repairs after it was heavily damaged by a simple electrical fault. visit ebrunews.com for more info and news.

Usa Meteor Illuminates The Night Sky
[LESS INFO] 1 VIEWS | ADDED 19:14:58 11/20/09
A streaking fireball briefly illuminated parts of the Utah sky to daylight-level conditions early on Wednesday, surveillance footage showed. The video from outside security cameras at the University of Utah's Milford observatory shows a blinding flash of light around 12:07 a.m. (0707 GMT), followed by clear images of the object streaking away. Although it's too early to say definitively how large the object was and how fast it was going, Seth Jarvis, the director of the Clark Planetarium in Salt Lake City estimated that it was about the size of an oven and was travelling at about 80 thousand mph (148 thousand kph). It broke through the Earth's atmosphere and was probably around 100 miles above the ground when it became visible, he said. It almost certainly broke up before it reached the ground, he said. visit ebrunews.com for more info and news!

'Avatar' Video Game In 3 D
[LESS INFO] 0 VIEWS | ADDED 18:56:01 11/20/09
3-D gaming is about to hit the stores in time for the holiday season market. 'Avatar: The Game' , which piggy backs off James Cameron's sci-fi movie "Avatar" , throws players into the fictional world of Pandora - all in 3-D. Both will be released in December. Unlike most film-related videogames, 'Avatar: The Game' was commissioned three years ago while Avatar the movie was in basic production. This enabled the developers to create a very intricate game, with lots of detail and an elaborate storyline. The big news is that this video game is in 3-D, which makes it something of a pioneer in the gaming world. Kevin Shortt, story designer for 'Avatar: The Game', says Ubisoft's early start in development means the game won't lack for quality - a criticism given to many film-based games. What will really get gamers' attention is that, just like the film, the game is released in 3-D. visit ebrunews.com for more info and news!

The Khan Murjan is an elegant building of fascinating architecture that dates back to the 14th century, located in the Western section of Baghdad, the cental hall is more than 45 feet high and the crenellated arches of brick and perforated windows make the structure a truly awesome piece of history. The Khan Murjan started life as an inn for travellers, and was home to many university scholars centuries ago. The word Khan was originally a term that meant 'travellers' inn', but later it was used to mean any urban inn, or market area. To reach the upper rooms there is an elevated path built on brick-ornamented arches. It's the only completely roofed Khan in Iraq. The Khan contains a vast array of rooms distributed amongst two stories around a closed paved courtyard. Director-General of Heritage Directorate Dr. Fauzi yah Mahdi says the Khan Murjan dates back to 760 Hegira. visit ebrunews.com for more info and news!
