Q: What pattern for constructing and verifying an access token for a web application? We have a web application which consists of two parts (among others): a 'shell' written in Java running in Jetty using Windows authentication through Waffle, which shows a 'component' written in ASP.NET running in IIS using Windows authentication.  Both parts are served from the same host, but (of course) from different ports.
As it stands, a user first must sign in to the shell, and then when the component is loaded the user must sign in again.  We want to get rid of that second sign-in step.
From what I've seen and read, e.g. about claims-based authentication and OAuth, the standard pattern for that is the following:

*

*After signing in to the shell, the shell constructs a 'token' with the user's Windows account name, which it sends back to the browser.

*The component does not use Windows authentication, but instead the browser sends it the token.

*The component verifies that it trusts the token, and uses the identity from that token.

(In our case the simplest technique is to put the token in a cookie, since both shell and component run on the same server, and HTTP cookies are not port-specific, so the browser will automatically send the shell's token to the component.)
Now I see several ways to construct and verify the token, like:

*

*(a) The token contains the Windows account name, encrypted with a symmetric key that is hardcoded into both shell and component, or generated and agreed at installation time or start-up time.

*(b) The token contains the Windows account name, signed using a private key, and verified using the corresponding public key.  This key pair is generated at installation time.

*(c) The token contains a GUID, and the component's server side makes a call to the shell's server side to verify its validity and get the Windows account name.

I think I prefer (b), since (a) seems too 'hardcoded', and (c) is more likely to give scaling issues.  Also, we already have a private/public key pair in place in the form of an SSL server certificate in the shell which is trusted by the component.
My main concern with (b) is that the token will contain an (X.509?) signature, which means the token could become fairly large.  (Would it?)  Also I'm not (yet) familiar with techniques to create a signature in Java, and verify it in .NET.
My question: What is the standard/recommended pattern to use here?  What alternatives have I overlooked?  Is there a standard protocol that we could use here?

A: You are on the right track.
Yes, the idea is to have the shell generate a token that cannot be forged (generated by anything/anyone but the shell) that can be verified by the component.
You are right that the token can become quite large.  It will not become so large as to be unworkable (i.e. larger than a browser can handle), but it can become a performance issue.
In general, any component that accepts HTTP traffic with any kind of cached authentication is going to have a preferred format for that cached authentication.  In your current implementation, after the user signs into the component (the second sign in step) the component will issue some kind of cookie containing identification credentials it will accept for subsequent requests.  So the best thing would be for the shell to create exactly those credentials.
Failing that, it's quite reasonable for you to use your option (b) of creating a signed certification form the shell that the component can verify and then replace with its preferred form of authentication credential.

Did you know that 1 in 10 GP visits where 'I just feel tired all the time' is the complaint, that dehydration is actually the patient's problem?
When was the last time you reached for a drink in a desperate attempt to quench your thirst and rehydrate you? In the midst of a busy day keeping your body hydrated can often slide way down the to-do list. However, busy living conditions mean optimum hydration is absolutely imperative to function at your best level.
Coffee is the world's most popular psychoactive stimulant but if you're dependant on numerous cups per day, it could be inhibiting your hydration levels.
Coffee's reputation as a diuretic stems from Eddy & Downs (1928) influential study which found that participants excreted 50% more urine when they consumed caffeinated water or coffee.
However, this has been extensively studied in recent decades and despite the fact that coffee does tend to have you running to the toilet a little more often than usual, there is generally still a net fluid gain from consumption.
If you're having upwards of 2-3 cups per day though, it is likely that coffee consumption maybe impinging on your body's hydration.
How often as a kid did you gulp down your favourite soda or fizzy juice when you needed to quench your thirst?
And do you still do it today?
Despite the initial feeling that these drinks may be quenching your thirst, the transitory satisfaction is probably not adequately hydrating your body.
It is well known that these drinks have high sugar contents but their 'diet' equivalents are also full of sweeteners and substitutes which do not aid hydration.
Combined with the caffeine content, fizzy drinks are far from the ideal fluid to consume if we want to achieve optimum hydration.
As your body cannot use these drinks as well as it can use water, it is very easy to become just 1-2% dehydrated. While this is a very subtle level of dehydration, it can lead to drops in cognitive function, mood and vigour.
Perhaps the most obvious factor of them all, the alcohol we all enjoy to celebrate and party with is a huge diuretic.
After that first trip to the toilet when drinking alcohol, the gaps between subsequent visits get shorter and shorter. Alcohol causes significant decreases in our anti-diuretic hormone which restricts the kidneys' ability to absorb water and instead sends more fluid to our bladders.
So, whether you've had a heavy weekend on the booze or just had those couple of glasses of wine after work, it's so important to rehydrate as your body has a massive fluid deficit to make up for.
If you're not adequately hydrated before, during and after your workout, your body will struggle to reap the benefits of your efforts in the gym.
During exercise we often lose more water through sweat than we take on board, therefore creating a net fluid deficit. It is estimated that losing 2% of your body weight in water can decrease your performance by 25%.
The volume of water loss obviously depends on the length and intensity of the exercise, however the general guideline during your workout is to drink around 8oz per 15 minutes of exercise.
The best way to avoid dehydration during your workout though is to maintain a healthy level of hydration throughout the day.
Yes, the key to adequate hydration is not easy, but it is simple. The best way to hydrate your body is to drink at least 2 litres of water per day.
As we've already established though, this can sometimes seem like a chore during a busy day but it is a simple habit to integrate into your daily routine and your body will thank you for it.
Ensuring this daily intake could mean buying numerous bottles each day or carrying a rather large 1-2L bottle around with you on your daily commute. - both of which carry a huge environmental downside! However, there are solutions that can make integrating this level of intake into your routine a seamless change.

RockYou Raises $10M In Debt As It Shifts To Buying And Monetizing Existing Games
RockYou, once known as a leading social games developer before hitting rough times and making multiple roundsof layoffs, has recently become focused on buying up existing web, social, and mobile games.
Today, the company is announcing that it has raised $10 million in debt from FastPay (a firm that makes loans to digital media companies) to continue funding those efforts.
RockYou's current model involves finding games that are, as CEO Lisa Marino explained via email, "past their prime" but still have an audience. It then buys those games, keeps them running, and monetizes them through a mix of advertising (particularly video ads) and virtual goods. (In some cases, it works as an ad partner for publishers without buying the games outright.)
"No one is taking the bet we are right now," Marino said. "The mentality today is that gaming is a hit-driven business, which I talked about in a blog post here. But what we're doing is taking games past their prime and managing and monetizing them through their lifecycle for years to come."
She added that RockYou doesn't have "a single game in development."
The company says it has made 12 acquisitions, including Words of Wonder, Gardens of Time and City Girl, from publishers such as Disney Interactive and 50 Cubes. As a result, it says it has a user base of 75 million players and has grown revenue 250 percent year-over-year.
Those acquisitions have mostly been funded by RockYou's cashflow and debt from FastPay, Marino said. Apparently the company also raised "a very small round in March" (a regulatory filing says it was about $3.3 million), and Marino added that the company could raise another equity round later this year or in 2015: "It really depends on how we view the deal landscape."

Chelsea remain two wins away from the Premier League trophy after a steely 0-0 draw at 2nd placed Arsenal.
The biggest pre-match talking point was Jose Mourinho's decision to play without a recognised striker. With Diego Costa and Loic Remy both sidelined by injuries and Didier Drogba struggling with an ankle problem, Oscar played as the man furthest forward, with the veteran Ivorian having to settle for a place on the bench. There were two changes from the side that defeated Manchester United, with Ramires sitting in midfield instead of Kurt Zouma and Willian also coming in. Ramires' inclusion meant former Arsenal favourite Cesc Fabregas playing in a more advanced role behind Oscar.
The result made it 13 games against Arsene Wenger without defeated for Mourinho, despite Arsenal's best efforts to make good on all the possession they enjoyed. However, there were few real chances for the home side. One of the best opportunities fell to Per Mertesacker in the second half when a Thibaut Courtois clearance could only find the German who finished with all the skill one would expect from a 6 foot 6 inch centre back.
There were chances for the more attack minded members of the Arsenal line-up however, as Mesut Ozil could only force a routine stop from Courtois, and Danny Welbeck scuffed one wide in stoppage time. However, for all the possession those were the only real openings for the home side.
Despite a goalless scoreline, there could – and should – have been chances for both teams to score from the spot in what was in truth a poor day for Michael Oliver in the middle.
Chelsea had three good appeals all waved away, two involving Oscar and one with ironically Cesc Fabregas. Our Brazillian playmaker was tripped by young Spanish right-back Hector Bellerin and not long after what can only be described as a stonewall penalty was denied, also involving Oscar.
After being played through from a delightful lofted ball from Fabregas, Oscar had chipped the ball over the onrushing stopper David Ospina, who proceeded to wipe him out leaving him needing medical attention. At half time Oscar was substituted, probably still feeling the effects of that challenge, with Didier Drogba replacing him.
Fabregas's penalty appeal was much less clear though, as a seemingly theatrical fall during contact with Santi Cazorla saw him booked for diving, much to delight of the home faithful.
Ramires had a very good chance stopped after swift attacking move saw him played through with only the keeper to beat and the midfielder failed to get a clean connection and stubbed into the Ospina's hands.
Cries of "boring, boring Chelsea" rang out during and after the second half from the home fans but while the Blues held onto the ball, Arsenal were not very forthcoming in their efforts to regain it at any point resulting a defensive rearguard that was rarely troubled in the second period. However, when called upon John Terry in particular was as impenetrable as ever in a fine display from the captain, but Gary Cahill too was impressive.
The final whistle blew and celebrations were sparked in the away end and on the pitch as Chelsea knew that while the title was officially no closer, the task was now seemingly easier – a win agaist relegation-threatened Leicester on Wednesday, followed by another three points at home to mid-table Crystal Palace meant after a long decade of waiting, the Premier League title will be returning back to Stamford Bridge. Who needs history when you're constantly writing it?

Firstly, we introduce the recycling challenges followed by the summary of recycling technologies with focus on hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy and bio-metallurgy. Several examples of combined processes and industrial recycling processes are presented in detail. Furthermore, the advantages, disadvantages and efficiencies of each process and as well the industrial recycling processes are discussed. Finally, the conclusions about the recycling process are summarized.
Trend und Status der Technologien zum Batterierecycling – ein Überblick
Einführend werden die Anforderungen an das Recycling beschrieben und die möglichen Technologien mit Schwerpunkt auf Hydro-, Pyro- und Bio-Metallurgie zusammengefasst. Verschiedene Beispiele für kombinierte Prozesse und industrielles Recycling werden detailliert dargelegt. Des Weiteren werden die Vor- und Nachteile sowie die Effizienz jedes einzelnen Prozesses einschließlich der industriellen Technologien diskutiert. Den Abschluss bildet eine Zusammenfassung der Recyclingtechnologien.
In view of the worldwide increasing energy and raw material demand with continually shortening of the fossil resources, an increasing request towards environmental friendly recycling technologies is observed. The market for Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) increases rapidly due to their uses as electrochemical power sources. They are widely used in mobile phones, laptops, video-cameras and more recently in automotive applications [1, 2].
From the worldwide LiB consumption, 3400 metric tons of waste is estimated for the year 2020 just from electrical vehicles (EV) application, which is about four times the collection volume of LiBs waste from consumer electronics in 2012 [3]; while between 2015 and 2040 a 4 million metric tons of lithium-ion cells is predicted to be generated [4]. The use of cobalt in LIBs has grown from 700 tons to 1200 tons per year during the years 1995–2005, which is 25 % of the global cobalt demand [5]. London Metal Exchange [6] reports that the price of cobalt is then two times higher than of nickel and about 4 times more expensive than copper [6].
According to Dewulf et al. [5], if only recycled cobalt and nickel are used in the production of LiBs cathode active materials, 51.3 % savings can be achieved in natural resources, while 45.3 % in fossil fuel resources and 57.2 % in nuclear energy demand. Thus, a research increase is expected based on the optimization composition of new cathode materials that give higher energy and power density.
2 Recycling challenges
An important issue in recycling of spent batteries represents the recovery of valuable components available in such wastes. As a result of a continuous market expansion and technological replacement, the generation of electrical and electronic waste becomes a challenge. Therefore, an increasing demand in developing new recycling technologies is required. The battery recycling market is mainly price driven and represents the key differentiating factor, which in a competitive market reduces profitability for battery recycling companies [7].
The main challenge which is hindering the industry in a long-term financial investment are the specialized processes and recycling plants required by market participants to develop specialized waste disposal services. Moreover, long-term recycling would complete the ecological benefits and the environmental laws, which will fulfill the handling requirements of the variety and volume of materials expected. As the market is still unexplored, the specific impacts and overall profitability of these investments are unknown and thereby create ambiguity and uncertainty about making such commitments [7].
Furthermore, the future battery chemistries which are under research and development will be employed for long-term recycling mainly for ecological benefits and for adherence to environmental laws. Phosphate or manganese based chemistries are still not standardized for recycling technologies, making the value of recycling challenging. However, the recycling of LiBs is expected to be one of the main sources of lithium supply, while more batteries are becoming available for recycling.
3 Battery recycling technologies
Over the last decade a research increase on efficient recovery methods has been observed. However, the expansion of the LiB recycling market will depend on the potential economic costs or revenues associated with material recovery from the continually increasing waste [8, 9]. Although there are a lot of research achievements developed on the recycling technologies of LIBs, most of them are based on hydro- and pyro-metallurgical chemistry [10–12].
Various battery recycling plants already exist on the market operate by e.g. Umicore, Sony/Sumitomo and Toxco Inc. Moreover, recycling represents a new concept and needs a good management of the collection and separation of the batteries. Some recycling processes combine pyro- and hydrometallurgical steps and often have integrated pre-treatment steps like pyrolysis or mechanical processing, i.e. crushing and material separation. Process examples for each category are given as follows.
3.1 Hydrometallurgical processes
The hydrometallurgical methods involve acid or base dissolution, solvent extraction, chemical precipitation, electrochemical methods and/or combination of these processes. Hydrometallurgical methods are used on the basis of their simplicity, environmentally friendliness (due to waste water and air emission minimization), adequate recovery of valuable metals with high purity and low energy requirements [13].
An environmentally friendly leaching process for the recovery of cobalt and lithium from the cathode active materials of spent lithium-ion batteries was proposed [13, 14]. A great interest was given to the recovery of lithium and cobalt from waste lithium-ion batteries of mobile phones. A systematic scientific study for developing an environmentally friendly recycling process for recovery of cobalt and lithium is proposed by Jha et al. [15] and Santos et al. [16].
In order to get basic information about the crushing and separation treatment of crushed products from spent LiBs a detailed chemical and mineralogical characterization was carried out [17, 18]. A mixture of organic DL-malic acid with H2O2 and citric acid with H2O2 were used to recover Co and Li from spent LiBs [13] while Kang et al. [19] dissolved the cobalt containing powder with H2SO4 and H2O2 to recover cobalt sulfate which with addition of oxalic acid was calcined to produce crystalline Co3O4 [20].
The feasibility of bioleaching for the solubilisation of metals from solid waste streams and by-products was evaluated [21]. Solubilisation of metals was achieved via sulphuric acid by sulphur oxidising bacteria. In order to achieve better solubilisation efficiency, the effects of inoculum, pH, supplemental ferrous iron, sulphur, and sodium chloride were investigated. They concluded that addition of ferrous iron and chloride ions does not enhance the metal solubilisation. In order to advance the spent LiBs recycling technologies, combined solvents were used due to their safety and simplicity. Further studies concerning nickel and cobalt electrowinning using a combination of hydrometallurgy with solvent extraction [22, 23] were reported, while a combined method of acid leaching and chemical precipitation aimed to recover Co and Li from spent LiBs [24].
A hydrometallurgical process is developed to recover valuable metals from the LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 cathodes of spent lithium-ion batteries [25]. The effect of type of acid (H2SO4, HNO3 and HCl), acid concentration, leaching time and leaching temperature were investigated to determine the most efficient conditions of dissolution. The preliminary results indicate that HCl provides higher leaching efficiency, while Co was selectively oxidized and recovered under the form of Co2O3 with 100 % recovery efficiency [25].
A lithium-ion battery recycling process was developed by Contestabile et al. [11] with the aim to characterize processes capable for treating the used batteries which will be further suitable for disposal. A combination of the electrochemical and hydrothermal methods were used to recover both Co and Ni from LiCoO2 and LiCoxNi(1-x)O2in the lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries by Lupi et al. [26]. A good Co deposit was produced with a current efficiency of about 96 % and an energy consumption of 2.8 kWh/kg.
Freitas and Garcia discuss the electrochemical recycling of cobalt from cathodes of spent lithium-ion batteries [27, 28]. They used the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance technique to study the electrodeposition of cobalt from spent LiB cathodes. A good electrochemical performance was obtained by re-using of a Li1.2Co0.13Ni0.13Mn0.54O2 cathode material from spent LiBs [29]. A discharge capacity of 258.8 mAhg-1 at the first cycle was obtained, while after 50 cycles the discharge capacities reached 225.1 mAhg-1.
The works provided by Bernardes et al. [30], Xu et al. [31] and Bankole et al. [32] offer good reviews on the current recycling processes and technologies. According to Xu et al. [31] the recycling technologies must achieve the reduction in the volume of the scraps or cases and selective separation of the valuable components, with emphasis on the physical and chemical processes. These are considered the two main categories of processes employed on the lab- and industry scale to recycle various kinds of batteries.
Several companies in Germany like: Accurec in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Muldenhütten Recycling und Umwelttechnik GmbH in Freiberg, DK Recycling und Roheisen GmbH in Duisburg, Hoppecke Batterien GmbH & Co. KG in Brilon, Nirec Nickel Recycling and Redux GmbH in Dietzenbach, Nordische Quecksilber Rückgewinnung GmbH (NQR) in Lübeck and Varta in Hannover are dealing with the metallurgical recycling of batteries.
Furthermore, the company Batrec Industrie AG (Switzerland) is dealing mainly with the mechanical processing of LiBs. The batteries are crushed in CO2 gas atmosphere, resulting in a subsequent material separation from where different material fractions are obtained and which represent feedstock materials for other processes.
One of the leading hydrometallurgical companies is Toxco Inc. (Canada) which was developed to recover valuable lithium products and other materials from all types and sizes of lithium batteries. This facility is also unique in its capability to recycle alkaline batteries to produce zinc and other metals and innovative due to its patented cryogenic process (-200 °C) for shredding and separation of the materials. Batteries like NiCd, NiFe, NiMH, Li-ion and Zn-Mn are recycled through the Inmetco process [33, 34]. A process of reducing iron ore in an ore/coal mixture on the hearth of a furnace is proposed. The rotary hearth furnace technology combines low material costs with simplicity and flexibility of operation. The unprocessed coals resulting from the Inmetco process, contains large amounts of volatiles, which consumes the energy needed for the reduction of the iron oxides. Nevertheless, the reduction of iron ore in an ore/coal mixture can be significantly improved by optimizing the experimental parameters.
Commercially available battery types (except Pb and Hg) are recycled at Accurec GmbH (Germany). Their aim is to develop innovative and cost efficient recycling technologies for Hybrid- and EV-batteries. Vacuum Thermal Recycling is used as the core technology and represents a self-developed technology. It is assumed that is an emission-free and safe technology, which enables the separation of the toxic metal gases hermetically from the environment. Due to its unique technology developed and applied, Accurec achieves a high recycling efficiency of 79 % for NiCd-batteries.
As part of the Berzelius Group, the Muldenhütten Recycling und Umwelttechnik GmbH in Freiberg (MRU) is bringing a significant contribution to battery recycling. With an average annual production of 55.000 tons of lead and lead alloys is the MRU not only one of the most modern, but also one of the productive secondary lead smelters in the country [35]. Furthermore, the MRU is placed on the second place with its own special waste incineration system and uses the waste heat from the combustion process for the crystallization of sodium sulfate as a heat carrier in the heating network operation, while electricity is generated through a turbine.
From the above, it is obvious that several recycling processes are available on the market and many are still under development. The available recycling plants demonstrate the compatibility of the hydrometallurgical methods with the environment, and make the process feasible for future development. Key factors, like separation, dissolution and extraction are under development and remain open and challenging for the new battery chemistries.
3.2 Pyrometallurgical processes
A specially recycling process dedicated to portable LiBs was developed by combining mechanical pretreatment with hydro- and pyrometallurgical process steps. Characterization and evaluation of the obtained material fractions were performed, while the focus of the project was the development of a selective pyrometallurgical treatment step
in an electric arc furnace. The proof of feasibility of this facility aimed at the production of cobalt alloys and helps the melting of the fine fractions containing cobalt and lithium generated from the spent LiBs [36].
A combined pyro- and hydrometallurgical process for recycling of lithium-ion and NiMH batteries is developed by Umicore (Belgium and Sweden). The battery wastes are subjected to melting without any pre-treatment, while nickel, cobalt and other metals are recovered. However, the Umicore process does not aim at the recycling of lithium and other organic materials and carbon are lost through the recycling process. With the future growing market of LiBs, increases the demand for lithium, while a potential increase application of LiBs in hybrid and/or electric vehicles is observed. In order to overcome these issues, some alternative competing recycling technologies need to be developed. Nevertheless, Umicore is also a producer of cathode materials for LiBs, thus their closed-loop recycling process aims at a recovery of cobalt and nickel in the form of LiCoO2 and Ni(OH)2.
In Feurs (France) Valdi sets for recovery of alkali-manganese and Zinc-carbon batteries as the central unit using the electric arc furnace treatment. In addition to the investment in Feurs operates Valdi in Le Palais another furnace submerged arc with a melting capacity of around 3 t/h. In the screening stage, the sorting of the materials is carried out in a partner company. Different fractions from the battery mixture are separated and collected and then forwarded to appropriate recycling companies [37].
Another research project designed to recycle metals from portable batteries uses a patented fine grinding technology to reduce the black mass solid inner core of alkaline batteries into a powder form. The aim of the project is to develop an economically viable treatment for extracting and reusing valuable metal concentrates from spent batteries. According to their ideas, after reducing the black mass to a powder, the material is suitable for treatment by different chemical and biological processes to extract the various metallic ions such as zinc, carbon and manganese [38].
The effect of impurities caused by a recycling process on the electrochemical performance of Li[Ni0.33Co0.33Mn0.33]O2 was investigated by Krüger et. al [39]. Fresh cathode material was synthesized from the recycled solutions using an industrial process. The recycled materials and thus the prepared solutions exhibited different aluminum impurities (stemming from the current collector) which had an impact on the formation of secondary particles during synthesis. They concluded that, the electrochemical performance of the recycled materials is influenced by the impurities.
Furthermore, as part of the CoLaBats initiative, Tecnalia, a spanish company operates pilot projects at battery recycling plants. Their aim is to provide new industrial processes for the recycling of the critical metals like cobalt and lanthanides. In addition to the critical metals, it is also hoped to improve the recycling of key economic metals nickel and lithium from waste batteries by improving the recycling efficiencies and metal purity from the existing recovery processes. The lithium-ion and NiMH batteries will represent the target of this initiative using specific ionic liquids for selectively extraction of the metals [40].
Sun et al. [41] used vacuum pyrolysis in combination with hydrometallurgy for recycling spent LiBs. Vacuum pyrolysis was considered as an alternative pretreatment method for recycling spent LIBs.
Recently, an acidic organic solvent was employed to separate LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2cathode material and aluminium foil from spent LiBs. It was found that nickel, cobalt and manganese mostly remained in the recovered cathodic active material and that the impurities (aluminium, iron, copper) were less than 2 wt%. After removing the impurities the cathode material was re-synthesized by a high temperature solid state reaction method [42].
At the current stage, since the recycling efficiency can only be achieved if the desired components are recovered, several improvements are still required. Furthermore it has to be mentioned that the economic efficiency of the process shows that the cost effectiveness is strongly dependent on the cobalt price, which is known to be very volatile. Finally, the pyrometallurgical methods have been associated with high energy consumption, high air emission of dioxins, chloride compounds and mercury, and therefore require strict standards for air filtration systems to avoid pollution. In order to be able to recycle new types of LiBs the pyrometallurgical process needs to be improved and/or adjusted to the chemical system.
3.3 Bio-Metallurgical Process
Compared with the aforementioned pyro- and hydrometallurgical processes the bio process is considered as having higher efficiency, low cost and being environmentally compatible [30, 45]. In the last years, the bio-metallurgical processes have been gradually replacing the hydrometallurgical processes because of their higher efficiency, lower cost and fewer industrial requirements [43–45].
However, the treatment period of the bio processes is longer and different types of bacteria are required. Among the different types of bacteria and inorganic chemical solutions, the acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans are extensively investigated for the battery waste treatment. Elemental sulfur and acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans ferrous ions were used to produce metabolites, where the H2SO4 and ferric ion were responsible to recover Li and Co from LiCoO2 of LiBs. The results show that, the metabolites enhanced the dissolution of metals and that, the bio-dissolution of Co was faster than the one of Li [43, 45].
The bioleaching behaviour of the spent LiBs at pulp densities ranging from 1 % to 4 % was investigated with exploration of the process controls. A bioleaching efficiency decrease from 52 % to 10 % was observed for Co, while a decrease from 80 % to 37 % occurred to Li recovery. This decrease was attributed to a pulp density increase from 1 % to 4 %, with an extraction efficiency of 72 % for Co and 89 % for Li at 2 % pulp density [46].
In comparison with the chemical leaching and based on thermodynamic analyses, the bioleaching process has a good potential to recover metals from spent LiBs. A product layer diffusion model showing the best behaviour for Co and Li bio-recovery is presented [46]. Analysis of reasons for the decline of bioleaching efficiency of spent Zn-Mn batteries at high pulp densities was investigated [47]. The reason for the bioleaching efficiency decrease was attributed to the reduction of the bacteria activity when an increase pulp density was applied. This was confirmed by the extraction efficiency of Zn which dropped from 100 % at 1 % of pulp density to 29.9 % at 8 % of pulp density and to Mn from 94 % to only 2.5 %. Optimization of the leaching media brought a maximum extraction efficiency of approx. 100 % for Zn and 89 % for Mn at 4 % of pulp density.
The bioleaching of heavy metals from spent Ni-Cd and NiMH batteries using acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was investigated [48]. In order to investigate the effects of initial pH, powder size and initial Fe3+ concentration on the percentage of metals recovered, a Box-Behnken design was used. Under optimization of the experimental conditions an 87 %, 67 %, and 93.7 % for Ni, Cd and Co, respectively recovery was obtained. It was confirmed that, acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans is an effective toxin resistant microorganism for bio-recovery of heavy metals.
Other groups [49] discuss the influence of silver ions on bioleaching of cobalt from spent LiBs. Using the same bacteria type (A. ferrooxidans) and a concentration of 0.02 g/L Ag+ a 98.4 % Co recovery was obtained, while in the absence of Ag+ a 43.1 % Co being observed. The proposed mechanism is based on catalytic interactions: firstly Ag+ reacts with Co to form AgCoO2, while an enhancement of the Co recovery using A. ferrooxidans and Ag+ is explained [49].
Xia et al. [50] dealt with the recycling of spent Zn-Mn batteries via bio-metallurgy. Under optimum conditions a 96 % of Zn extraction was achieved within 24 h, while 60 % of Mn extraction was obtained using a biological mechanism with incubation for more than 7 days. For a better understanding of the mechanism of the leaching reaction a modified shrinking core model was proposed [51]. The recovery of Cr and Ni using bioleaching of dewatered metal-plating sludge was subjected, showing that pH = 1, pulp density of 9 g/l and initial Fe3+ concentration of 1 g/l are the optimum values and represent an recovery efficiency of 55.6 % for Cr and 58.2 % for Ni.
However, even if the bioleaching process shows good results with respect to the recovery efficiencies, the procedure needs to be more effective by improving the methods and reducing cost for culturing the bacteria. Nevertheless the bacteria need to be exchanged at a specific time intervals being unable to remain active in a concentrated waste solution. In order to bring the process to a commercial operation, the bio-metallurgy process remains challenging.
Effective and feasible recycling technologies with a complete life cycle analysis are under development and demonstrate the immediate need to develop comprehensive recycling solutions. More and more lithium based batteries are used in development of hybrid and/or electric vehicles. With the hybrid technology under continuous development, an increase of return flow of spent batteries is expected.
However, the batteries commercially available are not yet at a high enough technological level to meet the power requirements of hybrid and/or electric vehicles. Challenges remain with the development of novel concepts that may lead to advance batteries. Many innovative materials based on new chemistries, such as LiFePO4, LiNiCoMnO, LiNiCoAlO, LiMnO, LiNiMnO, LiTiO, LiSi, LiSn, are investigated intensively with the aim of upgrading battery performance to automotive levels.
On the other hand, the economic and political implications of many countries worldwide are considered important in budgeting the funding, in order to stimulate the research and development of LiB technology. The development of innovative, cost effective, simple, flexible and environmental friendly solutions will challenge tomorrow's recycling processes.

The Central and Eastern Oregon Township Plats consist of reproductions of the original manuscript plat maps for townships in regions of Oregon east of the Cascade Mountains. Most of the plats were prepared in the 1870s-1890s.
The Central and Eastern Oregon Township Plats consist of reproductions of the original manuscript plat maps for townships in regions of Oregon east of the Cascade Mountains prepared by the U.S. General Land Office and the U.S. Surveyor General; most of the maps were prepared in the 1870-1890s. Each township of 36 square miles is on a separate sheet. Most sheets have a scale of about 1:31,680 or 2 inches = 1 mile; the remainder are at a smaller scale of about 1.5 inches = 1 mile. These plats cover from Townships 4N to 41S and Ranges 6E to 37 E. Regions depicted in this collection include the Umatilla River basin, Blue Mountains, John Day River basin and tributaries, Snake River, Deschutes River, and Klamath Basin. Boundaries of the Umatilla, Malheur, and Klamath Indian Reservations are shown on the plats. Plats for the Vale and Owyhee Irrigation Projects prepared in the 1930s are included. Several of the plats show mining ditches and placer mining claims in the John Day River basin. The Klamath River, Klamath Lakes and associated marshes, Tule Marsh, and Modoc Lake as well as Fort Klamath and the Klamath Irrigation Project are depicted.
The plats show section lines as well as natural features and vegetation such as prairie; timber, soil types; rivers, streams, sloughs, and wetlands; and fields. The maps include some topographic features. Most of the plats include a narrative description indicating if the township is appropriate for grazing or cultivation, the soil quality, availability of water, and type of timber. Wagon trails and military roads are shown on the plats as well as land claims. This collection consists primarily of single copies of each township plat; however, there are some townships represented by multiple copies of the same plat or different editions of the same township.
Survey Plats as well as Field Note Records for these townships are available online through the Land Status and Cadastral Survey Records website prepared by the Bureau of Land Management - Oregon State Office.
The Central and Eastern Oregon Township Plats consist of one series: I. Township Plats, 1858-1939.

In this interview, the violist Sebastian Krunnies meets the French conductor François-Xavier Roth who made his debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker in December 2015. Roth is Generalmusikdirektor of the city of Cologne and has been chief conductor of the SWR Sinfonieorchester since 2011. With the ensemble Les Siècles which he founded himself, he also performs music from different eras on period instruments. Topics of conversation are the stylistic diversity of the musician who conducted French works ranging from early Baroque to Modernism for his first concert with the orchestra, and the importance of cultural mediation in politically difficult times.


WHY HERE: The focus at this branch of the Teote minichain is of course on agave. A wide range of tequilas and mezcals (including pechugas and infusions) dominate the drinks menu. It's a dark yet festive spot with wildly decorated walls and ceilings and additional outside seating. Arepas and Latin American–inspired bowls soak up the booze.
WHY NOW: The Teote brand continues to expand. A new Pine Street venue, Teote Outpost, is scheduled to open soon with plenty more great food and drink.
Don't lose track of Teote Mezcalería!


After losing 4-1 to Lioli on Saturday, Kick4Life's Director of Football Chris Bullock called on supporters at the weekly press conference to rally behind the team. Coach Leslie Notsi added they have put Saturday's results behind them and are now focusing on their upcoming tie with Lesotho Defence Force FC.
Notsi noted that Lioli were the better side on the day and credit should be given to them. However, he stated that his players tried their best but they were facing the team which has been doing well in the past seasons.
Moving forward into the upcoming clash, Notsi said they are aware that it is going to be tough one as well but they are going to work hard to get back to their winning ways.
Commenting on the recent violent incidents occurring in local football, Chris Bullock said it was very disappointing. He said he would like to see the level of football in the country taking off to the next level.


I'm trying to change the culture in New York City that's hard enough!
This society cannot go forward, the way we have been going forward, where the gap between the rich and the poor keeps growing. It's not politically viable it's not morally right it's just not going to happen.
We cannot continue. Our pension costs and health care costs for our employees are going to bankrupt this city.

Seth Rogen Admits Kanye West Used To Follow Him Around The Gym
During an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers earlier this week, Seth Rogen revealed that he used to have the same personal trainer as Kanye West and that he would often have strange interactions with the rapper at the gym.
"Several times, he would show up early. And he's a big fan of our movies," Rogen recalled.
"And he would literally follow me around as I worked out and quote my own movie scenes to me, which is so weird."
Rogen continued, "He's just like, 'So McLovin, that's a funny joke.' I'm like, 'Yeah, man. I don't know what to tell you.'"

Portfolio Samples
Tayé Foster Bradshaw
2007-2014 Writing Samples Across Multiple Web Sites, Publications, Blogs, and/or Content Sources
Writer's Portfolio and Selections from The Helium Network, now a part of RR Donnelly (Original member since 2007)
Helium.com (at the time) was a new, innovative, and opptimistic content site for writers by writers. What drew me to the internet as a medium for my writing was the anonymous peer reviews, the variety of writing topics that allowed me to develop my voice across articles, the anonymous ratings, the "star" reviews, and often #1 spot I held for articles I wrote. It allowed then unpublished writers to build a portfolio, reach a broad audience, and build a following in the still-developing social media world. This was at the time before Facebook was open to anyone not in academia, long before Google+, Pinterest, or even Blogger. For the two years I was active on the site as an original member, site steward, and compensated writer, I gained a greater understanding for writing in a virtual space, developing an idea with self-imposed word limits, and connecting to a reader.

Selections from Blogs, Book Reviews, and Creative Writing (2007-2014)
After writing with Helium for a year, gaining recognition and high reviews, I, like all writers, knew there was some value in what we emerged from our fingers on the keys. One of the things that Blogger offered me that Helium did not was an opportunity to build a separate portfolio for my interest areas and own my domains. Tayé Foster Bradshaw's bookshelf was the last to be developed.

In 2012, I met Arianna Huffington at a West County political women's event in the spring after my 2012 run for the Kirkwood School Board. We chatted after the luncheon and she gave me her personal card, contacts, and invited me to be a blogger on the Huffington Post. I had been an active member of the Post and commentator, primarily on topics related to politics, the arts, education, and black culture.

In 2013, The Ethical Society invited me to deliver their platform address in February 2013, as part of their Black History Month focus on social justice and equality. The topic was pre-chosen, the private prison system, as well as directions to not make religious references. The compensated invitation allowed me to again stretch my craft by thoroughly researching a somewhat unfamiliar topic and preparing an address that would reach a primarily upper class, well educated, mostly Caucasian audience in West County, Missouri.
I was presented and featured using my "real" name.: "I Dwell In Possibility: Only As I Am Free." Platform Address. http://ethicalstl.org/blogs/podcasts/podcast-i-dwell-in-possibility-only-as-i-am-free-by-antona-brent-smith/
In 2014, Robin Theiss has embraced my writing and signed me as one of the reviewers for her bookstore, STL Books, located in downtown Kirkwood. Her thorough knowledge of the arts and publishing, as well as her work with published authors, is invaluable to me as I continue to invest my time in the craft I love. She is critical in her eye and honest in her critique, praised my writing and while the compensation is not the equivalent of a full-time job, it is a recognition of the unique perspective I bring to the literature I review for her primarily female, mostly Caucasian, educated, middle-to-upper middle income customer base. My genres are primarily black female literary works by known and unknown authors, historical fiction with particular interest in works chronicling the black female experience in America and the West Indies, and limited YA/young adult volumes reviewed jointly with my daughter.
Current projects include working with an illustrator for two children's pieces, revamping a collaboration with a local photographer to embed the poem more into the piece that inspired it, and humanities writings through continuing education courses I am undertaking through Coursera. Focusing primarily on the liberal arts, humanities, and social sciences, these courses are workshopped in preparation for an historical fiction writing I want to undertake loosely based on the heavily Catholic, pre-Civil Rights 1944-1946 Era in St. Louis, Missouri and my late mother's quest for higher education. The MOOC concept has also allowed me to extend my education beyond my Masters of Business Administration in Marketing into the thoughtful, challenging, and inquisitive learning that is offered in the College of Arts and Sciences by institutions such as University of Pennsylvania, Duke University, University of Virginia, and Wesleyan. While not seeking a "statement of accomplishment," there are some courses that time only permits me to workshop, while there are others that absorb good amounts of my attention to write all the papers required for that distinction. I recently workshopped "How to Change the World," taught by Professor Michael Roth, the President of Wesleyan and am currently writing for "History of the Slave South," taught by Professor Stephanie McCurry of the University of Pennsylvania.

Inclusionary Zoning (IZ) has been a useful policy tool for requiring developers to set aside a percentage of housing units in new residential developments and make them available to low- and moderate-income households in exchange for tax breaks and other compensations including density bonuses, zoning variances, and/or expedited permits that reduce construction costs. This integration of affordable housing options into market-rate projects creates opportunities for households with diverse socioeconomic backgrounds to live in the same developments. Approximately 500 municipalities in 27 states have adopted IZ policies and as many as 150,000 affordable IZ units have been made available since 1974. Most IZ laws cover developments that exceed a minimum number of units but are always triggered by the award of a public benefit, such as the granting of a zoning change, city land or a public subsidy. Some cities require affordability in all developments, regardless of size. Others apply to developments that exceed a certain square footage, and at least one city requires affordability only when higher-end units are built. By linking the production of affordable housing to private market development, IZ aims to expand and leverage the supply of affordable housing and promote social and economic integration by helping to de-concentrate poverty and broaden opportunity.
Mandatory IZ laws require developers to build affordable units in exchange for zoning and land use approval. Approximately 83% of IZ policies throughout the country are mandatory. A review of IZ policies found that mandatory programs are more effective at producing affordable units. They provide developers with greater predictability. Some programs also include developer opt-outs, such as requiring developers to pay fees or donate land in lieu of building affordable units or providing the units offsite. This degree of flexibility is essential to ensuring the success of IZ programs.
Voluntary IZ policies provide incentives for developers to produce affordable units. Incentives typically involve regulatory flexibility providing some financial benefit to a developer, such as increased building height/density, relaxed parking requirements, fee waivers, etc. However, while voluntary programs pose less opposition from developers, they only produce affordable units if they offer substantial subsidies to the developer, or function as a mandatory policy by making it difficult for developers to obtain discretionary building permits without including affordable units in their projects.
According to NYC, about 1,700 affordable units have been built or are in development under the program in that city. In the Washington D.C. are, IZ programs have produced a total of 15,252 affordable unites as of 2003. The longer IZ programs have been in place, the more affordable units they have produced.

Civic Reception and Celebration Parade
Burnley fans are invited to turn out in their thousands when the club celebrates their return to the Premier League during a Civic celebration.
A public celebration event will be held on Monday (9th May) in Burnley.
It will kick off with a Civic reception at the town hall, followed by the presentation of the Sky Bet Championship trophy, and finally an open-top bus parade through the town centre to Turf Moor.
Burnley FC manager Sean Dyche and his players will be officially welcomed by the Mayor of Burnley, Councillor Liz Monk, at 6pm.
The Clarets heroes will then appear on the balcony of the town hall around 6.15pm to be interviewed by writer, broadcaster and avid Clarets fan Alastair Campbell.
TheSky Bet Championship trophy will be presented to the team at around 6.45pm on the Town Hall steps.
The players will then carry the trophy on the open-top bus parade through the town at approximately 7pm.
The route will start at the corner of Grimshaw Street/Manchester Road and follow Red Lion Street/Centenary Way/Yorkshire Street and finally Harry Potts Way.
Once the bus arrives at Turf Moor, the event will finish as club staff enjoy a private promotion party.
Burnley FC chairman Mike Garlick said: "We are naturally delighted to be back in the Premier League and feel it is right that we share the joy of a landmark moment in our history with the people of the town.
"Our thanks go to Burnley Council for inviting us to a Civic reception and we look forward greatly to seeing the fans turn out in their thousands to acclaim Sean and the players for a fabulous achievement."
The Mayor added: "It's fantastic to see Burnley back where it belongs – in the Premier League. Everyone at the club, and all the supporters, have done a brilliant job in getting us back into the best football league in the world.
"Burnley FC and Burnley as a town have a connection like no other – when the club is doing well it puts a smile on everyone's faces, whether you're a fan or not, and it gives the whole borough a massive boost.
"It was said when we were promoted back in 2014 and it's worth repeating now - Burnley truly is a premier town and now we have a premier club again. I'm sure we all look forward to welcoming some of the biggest clubs in the world to Turf Moor – and beating them!"
The town hall car park will be closed all day. Some other town centre pay and display car parks will be affected. Notices will go up on these car parks to alert users.
There will be some disruption to town centre traffic and bus services.
Manchester Road, between Saunder Bank and Yorke Street, will have restricted access from 10am until after the event due to the installation of crowd safety barriers in front of the town hall and Mechanics Theatre.
The following roads will be closed at some point between 4pm and 8pm to allow the celebration and parade to go ahead:
Bull Street, Hargreaves Street, Manchester Road, Ormerod Street, Yorke Street, Saunder Bank, Nicholas Street, Thomas Street, Elizabeth Street, Grimshaw Street, Parker Lane, Red Lion Street, Centenary Way, Yorkshire Street and Harry Potts Way.
A "rolling road block" will operate during the parade and roads and car parks will be re-opened as soon as possible.


Not only do track mitts provide you with a little comfort from the endless hours of mile eating, they also protect your palms should you be unfortunate enough to crash.
The two main factors that we have considered are comfort and durability. Either one on its own doesn?t mean that a set of gloves will be any good, but combine them and you?ll have a pair of mitts that give many miles of palm-saving comfort.
Leading our choices is the Specialized Body Geometry gel glove. It ticks all the boxes as far as we?re concerned. Unobtrusive Velcro closure, towelling panel on the thumb and road shock absorbing gel make these the most comfortable on test. They have seen a season of use and are still going strong, so it?s top marks.
The Gore Retro Tech glove looked particularly Rapha-esque and was probably the classiest looking of the offerings we tested, providing a little less palm padding than the others. Fit was good and they have handy tabs to ease removal.
Despite offering a great fit with adequate padding and towelling panel, the palm pad stitching on the Castelli Rosso Corsa failed after only a couple of months? use. Easily repairable, but inexcusable given the care they?ve had.


I'm a sucker for a short story collection, but I'm also a harsh critic of them. What makes a good collection is the author's ability to write many stories that are each unique and with its own voice. Many times all the stories sound the same and I get bored by the third one.
Ruschelle Dillion has created an entertainingly creepy and eclectic collection of dark fantasy fiction in her book Arithmophobia.
First things first, Arithmophobia is the fear of numbers. Here is a link if you want to know more. I was intrigued by the cover...I love the way the ship looks like a tiara on her head, and who doesn't love an octopus? But the cover only represents one of the stories, the number 8, if you're wondering. Combine that with the cool theme of the collection (the numbers 1-9) and I was hooked.
What a delightful read. The stories are Twilight Zone/Tales of the Crypt entertainment. Each has a twisted dark edge. Some lean more towards horror and others more towards dark humor and no two stories are the same.
If you enjoy that kind of thing Arithmophobia is worth a read!
The book/eBook being reviewed was provided for an honest review, and that no compensation was provided.
Ruschelle Dillon is a freelance writer whose efforts focus on the dark humor and the horror genres. Ms. Dillon's brand of humor has been incorporated in a wide variety of projects, including the irreverent blog Puppets Don't Wear Pants and novelette "Bone-sai", as well as the live-action video shorts "Don't Punch the Corpse" and "Mothman". She also interviews authors for the Horror Tree website.


We decided to stay in town to take it easy and get well this weekend, since this week was less than kind to us on the health end of things. (Back to back stomach flu and laringitis caught us all and knocked us a few notches down). However, we ended up having a pretty full day despite our "resting" intentions.
Goleta Beach park morning, followed by gymnastics class at Cloud10 trampoline park, before a quick lunch/nap, backyard bubbles, then ended the day at Westmont pool for a swim. A nice 84 degree afternoon was a perfect time to pretend it was summer.
   Can't complain about a day like this. Pretty blessed.

Midland Metropolitan Hospital: the £300m Pilot PF2 Project Closes 4 months after selection of preferred bidder Midland Metropolitan Hospital: the £300m Pilot PF2 Project Closes 4 months after selection of preferred bidder
Midland Metropolitan Hospital: the £300m Pilot PF2 Project Closes 4 months after selection of preferred bidder
16 Dec 2015 | 02:44 pm |
International law firm Pinsent Masons has advised the Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust on the procurement and negotiation of the first ever healthcare PF2 project.
The project was selected to be the hospital pilot for HM Treasury's new PF2 model, which has replaced the Private Finance Initiative. The new model provides greater transparency, gives the government an equity stake in the initiative, improves risk allocation and speeds up the procurement process.
Projects and finance legal director at Pinsent Masons and lead lawyer on the deal, Carly Caton, said: "The Treasury set a target to achieve selection of preferred bidder within 18 months. I am pleased to say we have achieved financial close in 17 months, well ahead of the Treasury's timetable."
Caton added that the project could serve as a blueprint for future infrastructure projects hoping to secure private finance but avoiding the lengthy procurement processes typically associated with this financing model.
NHS Trust Commercial Manager, Daphne Lewsley, said: "We are really pleased to have worked so hard and effectively to achieve an efficient procurement so that our private sector partners can now get started on building a new hospital for the people of Birmingham."
Barry Francis, Pinsent Masons' head of healthcare, said: "We are proud, once more, to be leading developments in securing a new hospital using new value for money approaches and working through with a range of government and private sector actors how to do all of this quickly"

What Are Neurodigital Bio-Hologenic Event Images? This phrase refers to the process by which 'thoughts' transfer into manifestation in the third dimension. Mental energy must penetrate into the layer of molecular and atomic activity on this plane in order to consciously order it into structured vistas that constitute our created world. Bio-hologenic, neuro-digital particles are the packages that deliver mind substance into the organic/physical dimension to create event images.
Our consciousness can be the mechanism to participate in this reality-making with great precision, creativity, and purpose. Outernet offers an identified frequency band of in-formation exchange to facilitate the promotion of conscious co-creation.
The earth plane is an inter-acting collection of bio-hologenic event-images (bhg). These multidimensional events originate at the deepest level of the human psyche, which then drives the belief vehicle and creates the event-images. We humans accept what is happening around us as true functional reality.
Current physical events and planetary life dynamics (which make up all news events) are a condensation of a delayed, dispersed, decaying, fragmented nightmare, which is being generated unconsciously at this time. The collective earth/human harmonic homeostasis has been fragmented due to interference originating in the stress belief package that was subscribed to as beings entered the bio-logical earth paradigm.
On the Global Enlightenment Network we are streaming conscious bio-hologenic event images in real time. These have the potential to replace the fear-war-greed ridden, energy draining matrix of "being" on this planet. As a benefit of emerging faculties within our upgrading human system, we can now engage consciously in the telepathic-holographic, neuro-digital outernet field. We can live stream penetrating, holistic and energy regenerating bio-hologenic event-images that reorganize the current destructive and negative 'acting out' bio-digital matrix into a symbiotic, regenerative bio-digital realty flow.
This regenerative reality is characterized by peace priority, gratefulness, humor, and happiness for no particular reason. The process is now upgrading the earth experience from homo sapiens divisiveness to the homo genius brilliant diamond- grade vibration.
