New age 21 century wedge free wood/log splitter

New age 21 century wedge free wood/log splitter

My inventiveness started at age 13 when I injured my hand operating a wood/log splitter, as so many thousands of others do, every year all over the world. After my many years of in several trades and engineering jobs, I started the research needed in development of a total new idea without the use of the traditional WEDGE for log splitters. I have tried 73 different designs and the 74th was the answer to improved safety, much less power usage, frame thickness, less welding and so on. Not

A Killer New View

Vancouver Aquarium

It’s a perfect August morning in Johnstone Strait: sunny, not a breath of wind, perfect visibility; the ocean glistening dark green with the reflection of forested mountains. My colleagues John Durban and Holly Fearnbach, researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Southwest Fisheries Science Centre in San Diego and long-time friends, are seated on the flybridge of the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre research boat Skana. As we scan for the distant blows

Researchers at the Sainsbury Laboratory

Flipping the switch

Queen's University

Researchers at the Sainsbury Laboratory, including Canadian biologist Jacqueline Monaghan, have uncovered a previously unknown means by which plants are able to regulate how their immune systems respond to pathogens. A group of small peptides, referred to as RALFs (Rapid ALkalinization Factors), serve to dampen immune signaling – preventing further response once the infection has been dealt with by the plant’s immune system. The finding could pave the way to improve the immune systems of food

BC’s biodiversity in the palm of your hand

Canada Foundation for Innovation

New app helps nature lovers identify hundreds of species along the province’s Central Coast. By Malorie Bertrand Ever wander in nature wishing you could identify the different plants and animals around you? Now, thanks to a team at the University of Victoria (UVic), there’s an app for that. Biodiversity of the Central Coast — launched this spring — gives users helpful images and descriptions for 210 plants, 80 birds, 120 seaweeds, 190 marine invertebrates and 20 mammals and reptiles that live in

Art of Research Photo Contest

Art of Research

Queen's University

Finding a muse in research Often, much of the research being done at Queen’s University is only seen by those involved in the project or who belong to the same department. To help highlight some of the amazing work being done at Queen’s the Office of the Vice-Principal (Research) held the second annual Art of Research photo contest, calling on faculty, staff and students to showcase their research, scholarly and artistic work through photography. Dozens of images were received highlighting

Albert Leyenhorst and his son, Logan

Research builds my agriculture community

Canada Foundation for Innovation

New ways of processing grain by-products to make feedstocks that are better for milk production will benefit both grain and dairy farmers across Canada. Albert Leyenhorst and his son, Logan, are second and third generation dairy and cash crop farmers in Dalmeny, Sask. The navy blue silos and red roofs of their farm can be spotted from a great distance; their purebred Holstein herd, and producing quality milk and strong, healthy cows, is their shared passion. To stay ahead of the curve, the

This anemometer was used at the Toronto Magnetic and Meteorological Observatory

Anemometer

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

An anemometer measures wind speed and direction, and helps meteorologists determine weather conditions and patterns. This instrument belonged to George Templeman Kingston, director of the Toronto Magnetic and Meteorological Observatory between 1855 and 1880. In 1871, the observatory, located on the grounds of the University of Toronto, became the headquarters of the Meteorological Service of Canada. From this base, Kingston oversaw the creation of a national network of weather-observation

Compressing Earth Blocks

Earth & Environment

GlobalMedic | Compressed Earth Blocks

To support families who have lost their homes as a result of disasters, GlobalMedic operates an innovative shelter response using Compressed Earth Block (CEB) technology. By simply compacting earth from the ground using the CEB machine, a strong, durable and environmentally friendly building material is produced. These blocks are then used to construct new houses. These homes not only protect families in the event of future disasters but also create employment, strengthen local participation and

Rainfresh Household Water Purification Units are point-of-use water filtration systems, designed to provide safe drinking water from virtually any water source. In the aftermath of an emergency, diseases caused by contaminated drinking water pose the greatest threat to affected families. GlobalMedic has partnered with Canadian ceramic filter producer Envirogard to distribute Rainfresh units around the world and provide an innovative, inexpensive, low-tech and environmentally friendly drinking

GlobalMedic | Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

GlobalMedic is partnering with the industry leading, Waterloo-based Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) manufacturer Aeryon Labs to apply innovative Canadian technology to humanitarian response operations. UAV technology is evolving to play a large role in humanitarian response, allowing aid agencies to survey wide areas of damage from the air – offering a safer, less obtrusive and less expensive response method than the use of helicopters. The units record and transmit video in real time, even from
