Trashing tourists
HRM recently had a recruitment for travel counsellors. Their ads claimed that travel counsellors play a "front line position in making a good first impression" on visitors to our municipality.
Visitors who arrive here by cruise ship or other means are more likely to be taken aback by the filthy condition of this city, rather than anything a travel counsellor might do.

Oikocredit's success
Re: Bob Howse's April 7 column on bringing microcredit to Halifax.
There is a fairly new co-operative in Nova Scotia that offers investment in microcredit."
Icagen is serving as a trial balloon
From: newsobserver.com
"The problem is investors have yet to warm to high-risk biotechnology stocks as Wall Street rebounds from a three-year economic slump, said David Menlow, president of Millburn, N.J.-based IPOfinancial.com, which tracks new stock offerings.
"It's like an artichoke," Menlow said. "The outer layers get stripped away in times of uncertainty. And the outer layers are the high-risk stocks."
That makes Icagen somewhat of a test case for the Triangle's biotech and pharmaceutical industry.
If the IPO fizzles, it could put a damper on other local companies' efforts to raise the outside investments needed for further drug development."
Wi-Fi will surpass 3G by 2007 : Wireless : MobileMag
From: www.mobilemag.com
"According to the new Pyramid report, in the next few years coming, Americans will utilize more mobile data communications by Wi-Fi rather than by using 2.5/3G networks. Pyramid forecasts this for paid and free Wi-Fi users compared to 2.5/3G users. We compared US forecasts for paid 2.5/3G users with forecasts for paid and free Wi-Fi users (shown below). For 2.5/3G, we included the following technologies: EDGE, 1x, EV-DO and UMTS, of which the overwhelming majority of users is represented by 1x.
This trend is not necessarily bad news for 3G. After all, a consumer may very well use both 3G and Wi-Fi."
Sasol enviro-friendly set-up costs big bucks
From: www.cartoday.com
"Sasol will need to spend approximately R7 billion to meet the new environmental standards set for fuel, said Sasol chief executive, Pieter Cox.
In the group's annual report, Cox said that while the new environmental standard for fuel, effective from 2006, would be welcomed, this major investment would not generate the sort of return that is expected from other projects.
"On the upside, however, the new selective catalytic cracker would generate additional large quantities of monomer feedstock ethylene and propylene," Cox said."
