ImaginIt Inc. Launches Three New Products To Revolutionize Solar Electric Building Technology
DENVER, CO. (ContentDesk) January 29 2004 ? After two years of product research and development, ImaginIt Inc announced today the launching of three new solar electric product lines: eBuilding?, Solar Street Furniture? and Sun & Sea PV?. The company will concentrate on commercial and governmental buildings with its eBuilding? solar electric systems for flat roofs accented by its Solar Street Furniture? as its target market in 2004. A percentage of ImaginIt's profits are going directly to fund solar electric projects for rural health clinics through its non-profit, ImaginIt Now!
Over 2 billion people in the world lack access to electricity. The vast majority of these people live in the remote rural areas of the developing world.
In today's world, electricity is a basic necessity; it provides access to an essential standard of living. Solar can also provide power for critical medical equipment and services for health clinics.Initially, ImaginIt started as a consulting practice for utilities and government to support the commercialization of solar electricity. "As natural problem solvers and innovators, we soon realized that the manufacturers were having all the fun," said Dr. Patrina Eiffert, CEO and founder of ImaginIt Inc.
"Photovoltaics (PV) is one of the fastest growing industries in the world." The market for PV is exploding in places like California where financial incentives are available to significantly shorten the payback of solar electric systems.
ImaginIt's goal is to provide its government and commercial customers with solar electric and energy conservation products that reduce their operating costs."Commercialization of solar electricity is still in its infancy in many parts of the country," said Dr. Eiffert.
"Our portfolio of solar electric solutions is based upon our proprietary products, technical knowledge and relationships we've developed with U.S., Japanese and European suppliers." ImaginIt designs, engineers and sources the optimal energy solution for a customer.
ImaginIt's proprietary e3Monitoring? system provides daily data on the building's electricity generation, economic performance and avoided environmental emissions.
The building's energy consumption performance is then available via the Internet in real time 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for building facilities managers and owners.About ImaginIt Inc.ImaginIt Inc.
was founded in October 2000 by Dr. Patrina Eiffert, an award-winning energy expert recognized as a pioneer in the field of commercializing Photovoltaics (PV) in the built environment.
ImaginIt provides innovative solutions based on our expertise and understanding of energy technologies, science, design, engineering, construction, manufacturing and strategic planning.
Our commitment to excellence, innovation and sustainability has made us the contractor of choice for our clients.
Since 1998, Dr.
Eiffert has been the U.S. representative to the International Energy Agency (IEA) Photovoltaic Power Systems (PVPS) on behalf of the U.S. Department of Energy, making her the first woman in the U.S. to hold this position.

The Cringe @ Continental in NYC!
(ContentDesk) June 22, 2004 -- THE CRINGE is a NYC based alternative rock band featuring:
John Cusimano, vocals and guitars; Rob Levin, lead guitar; Matt Powers, bass; and Shawn Pelton, drums.
The Cringe has been compared to Foo Fighters, STP, Pearl Jam, and early U2.
This is one of those bands you had better see live now . . .
by their next tour you may not be able to get tickets! The quartet's hard edge and shimmering melodies have forged them a strong following in their home town of New York City.
This past May The Cringe made a huge splash when they played for over 5,000 fans at Sunfest in West Palm Beach, FL.
The crowd went crazy when front man John Cusimano went into the crowd and gave away his guitar to a lucky fan during their performance of "Too Many Problems."
In addition, The Cringe had the crowd on their feet when in the middle of their song "Burn" the band suddenly ripped into The Who's "Baba O'Riley." Their debut...

Galileo GIOVE-A Successful Launch with Marotta Propulsion Systems On-Board
Cheltenham, England (ContentDesk) January 7, 2006 - Marotta UK, Ltd. is pleased to announce that it has designed, developed and qualified equipment for the cold gas propulsion systems on board the Galileo GIOVE-A, part of Europes Galileo navigation program, successfully launched by Surrey Satellite Technology, Ltd.
(SSTL).The launch of the Galileo GIOVE, the first in a constellation of 30 satellites, marks Europes maiden entry into civilian-owned global positioning systems.
The complete Galileo constellation (27 operational and 3 active spares) will deliver real-time positioning accuracy down to one meter.
By placing the satellites in orbit at a greater inclination to the equatorial plane than current global positioning systems, Galileo will achieve better coverage at high altitudes, which makes it suitable for use over northern Europe, an area presently not well covered by GPS.
With a lead time of only four months, Marotta worked in close collaboration...

Sponsor a Hurricane Affected Family
OAK BROOK, IL (ContentDesk) October 20, 2005 -- LovingNeighbors, a network of thirteen cross denominational church congregations has found a way to make a huge difference in the lives of homeless hurricane families.
With the help of Sears and Kmart, they are equipping FEMA trailer families with complete Home Starter Kits.
These kits are a fabulous idea because FEMA trailers lack the basic living necessities such as cooking utensils, linens and tools. People cannot even open a can of beans or make a cup of coffee, nor do they have sheets to sleep on, said Sandy Molenhouse from International Aid. We are hoping more communities follow their lead .
Home starter kits can be best described as a shrink wrapped bridal shower on a 4 x 4 pallet. They include dishes and glasses, silverware and utensils, pots and pans, bedding and towels, radios and tools, hair dryers, ice chests, chairs, toasters, coffee pots, cleaning materials and more.

Bread - So Much a Part of Life
In the olden days, bread baking was a daily routine. Many times a loaf of warm, fresh from the oven bread, with a topping of fresh-churned butter was a meal - in times of hardship, in times of scarcity. Today, the food industry provides a mind-boggling array of bread products - your choice, to mix and match to your heart's content. They did, however, with all the magic of science, leave out "just a little". That little is the aroma or scent of fresh-baking bread, a hint of spice, and the texture of kneaded dough that provided not only sustenance but a form of "therapy" for the baker.
It wouldn't take much to take a step back in time and give your family and friends that old-fashioned, yet timely, welcoming aroma that just brings them to the kitchen, awakens even the most sluggish appetite, and the smiles - well, that is the true "icing" on the bread. The convenience of electric mixers with dough hooks and even bread machiens, frozen loaves of bread that just need to have that...
