Waste Coffee Grounds Make Great Biofuel

| posted by Kit Eaton

As well as being the early morning fuel for billions of office workers, researchers have discovered that coffee, in the form of spent grounds, makes a pretty decent biofuel.

The Nevada-based team recently pointed out that one barrier to greater eco-friendly biofuel use is a missing source of high-quality, low-cost fuel-producing material, which is where coffee enters the frame. By weight, spent coffee grounds have around 11% to 20% of oil remaining inside. That figure compares well with more usual biofuels like palm, rapeseed and soybean.

The team estimates that of the 16 billion pounds of coffee bean grown annually–which when spent ends in the trash or on compost heaps–up to 340 million gallons of biodiesel could be made. To demonstrate this, they collected used grounds from one multinational coffee house, extracted the oil and used a cheap-to-run process to turn it into biodiesel with 100% conversion efficiency. Because it’s packed with antioxidants, the resulting coffee-fuel is actually more stable than some other biodiesels.

It sounds like a complete win-win: a trashed product makes a biofuel cheaply, the environment benefits, and the spare products from biofuel-making can be used to make ethanol or compost. Best of all–the fuel actually smells like coffee.

U.S. Supreme Court: State Medical Marijuana Laws Not Preempted by Federal Law
Medical marijuana case appealed by the City of Garden Grove was denied review today

Washington, DC — The U.S. Supreme Court refused to review a landmark decision today in which California state courts found that its medical marijuana law was not preempted by federal law. The state appellate court decision from November 28, 2007, ruled that “it is not the job of the local police to enforce the federal drug laws.” The case, involving Felix Kha, a medical marijuana patient from Garden Grove, was the result of a wrongful seizure of medical marijuana by local police in June 2005. Medical marijuana advocates hailed today’s decision as a huge victory in clarifying law enforcement’s obligation to uphold state law. Advocates assert that better adherence to state medical marijuana laws by local police will result in fewer needless arrests and seizures. In turn, this will allow for better implementation of medical marijuana laws not only in California, but in all states that have adopted such laws.

“It’s now settled that state law enforcement officers cannot arrest medical marijuana patients or seize their medicine simply because they prefer the contrary federal law,” said Joe Elford, Chief Counsel with Americans for Safe Access (ASA), the medical marijuana advocacy organization that represented the defendant Felix Kha in a case that the City of Garden Grove appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. “Perhaps, in the future local government will think twice about expending significant time and resources to defy a law that is overwhelmingly supported by the people of our state.”

Send Free Text Messages Through Email with SMS Touch



The maker of the landscape typing app for iPhone, TouchType, has created a new app, SMS Touch that allows users to send unlimited text messages and then of course not have to pay for an SMS plan.

SMS Touch allows users to write an email, in landscape mode if desired, spellcheck it and then send it to anyone in your phonebook as an SMS. Also when someone with SMS Touch receives a text message it goes straight to the email inbox and circumnavigates the charge.

So in short if you text all the time and want to avoid AT&T’s $15 fee for an unlimited texting plan, you can get around it with SMS Touch. However, SMS Touch does cost $5, but this fee mostly goes to just keep the backend of the program afloat…and it’s still three times less the cost than AT&T’s plan.

When everything is always
How does one break through
When anyone can do anything
How does one choose
Information and creation become interconnected , how do you seperate the two. We live in an interesting time when all is at your fingertips. How do you add value to somthing that is considered free?

If you listen to a cd enough during a certain part of your life it really dose start to define it. When people talk about hearing a song and it taking you back to a time and a place where you heard it and you can relive that moment through the music i tend to brush it off. For me it takes major repitition and i hardly listen to music any more. Lo and behold i came across a cd that me and my friends used to play in our GrowRoom when we were Working. Everytime i went in to Transplant, Water, Trim, tie up brances that were heavy with resin coated marijuana flowers, and anything pretaining to our garden i would play Gentleman’s Live Cd with the fareast band. I only had the 2nd cd but i played the hell out of the cd i am suprised it did not break.

So tonight when i was trimming a fresh harvest i put it on and whooosh! i mean man i can almost put myself back there. It reminds me of times pasted, friends made and friends lost. Hard times and New Opertunitys. I got the Cd’s from a friend who almost died in a car accident and did not listen to them for a month or two. He was a good friend but was only a fraction of what i can relate this song to.
Every memory links to another and there is a vast web of memories intercomected with each note.

I wanna say whats up to Mike Hogle, Casey, P.A. , Dean(R.i.P.), Twisty, Kenny, Clara, Suzzy, Sara Fry,
Jesika, and anybody who was close to me around that time in my life. Love all of you guys
Holla JP, Morgan, Eric, Brandon, Danny, and Joey and all my Windsor Heads
