An accredited investor is someone who has $1,000,000 of net assets or $300,000 in earnings each of the last two years. If you are not an accredited investor please disregard this page and refer to Univenture.com for information relating to the company. We are not taking any investment from non-accredited investors.

What are feeds? I see "RSS", "XML", and "Atom" out there, but I don't know how I might use these links when I find them.

Feeds are a way for websites large and small to distribute their content well beyond just visitors using browsers. Feeds permit subscription to regular updates, delivered automatically via a web portal, news reader, or in some cases good old email. Feeds also make it possible for site content to be packaged into "widgets," "gadgets," mobile devices, and other bite-sized technologies that make it possible to display blogs, podcasts, and major news/sports/weather/whatever headlines just about anywhere.

Why is This a Good Thing?

Subscribing to feeds makes it possible to review a large amount of online content in a very short time. Feeds permit instant distribution of content and the ability to make it "subscribable." Advertising in feeds overcomes many of the shortcomings that traditional marketing channels encounter including spam filters, delayed distribution, search engine rankings, and general inbox noise.

How do I read feeds?

If you want to browse and subscribe to feeds, you have many choices. Today, there are more than 2,000 different feed reading applications, also known as "news aggregators" (for text, mostly) or "podcatchers" (for podcasts). There are even readers that work exclusively on mobile devices. Some require a small purchase price but are tops for ease-of-use and ship with dozens of feeds pre-loaded so you can explore the feed "universe" right away. Free readers are available as well; a search for "Feed reader" or "Feed aggregator" at popular search sites will yield many results. A handful of popular feed readers are listed at the bottom of this page. A typical interface for a feed reader will display your feeds and the number of new (unread) entries within each of those feeds. You can also organize your feeds into categories and even clip and save your favorite entries (with certain applications). If you prefer, you can use an online, web-based service to track and manage feeds. Online services give you the advantage of being able to access your feed updates anywhere you can find a web browser. Also, upgrades and new features are added automatically.

Senator Karen Gillmor, Agricultural Leaders To Launch Buy “Buy-Ohio” Campaign

Columbus, OH – On Friday, June 19, 2009, at 9:30 a.m., State Senator Karen Gillmor (R-Tiffin) and representatives of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, the Ohio Soybean Council, the Ohio Corngrowers Association and the Ohio Bioproducts Innovation Center (OBIC) will officially kickoff their campaign to promote expanded use of commercial and industrial products composed from biological products, including renewable agricultural materials, like plant, animal and marine materials, or forestry materials. Not only are these products environmentally friendly, but also provide a growing market for Ohio agriculture.

Ross O. Youngs, inventor and CEO of Univenture, Inc., will be on hand to provide examples of his environmentally friendly packaging materials, made from agricultural products and in Marysville, Ohio. Many other companies in Ohio are also leading the way in bioproducts development and marketing, including Battelle, who will also have a representative at Friday’s event.

All participants support Senate Bill 131, legislation recently introduced by Senator Gillmor that would implement a purchasing preference program in Ohio, similar to the federal BioPreferred Products Program, for the acquisition of supplies by government agencies. Gillmor provided sponsor testimony on SB 131 before the Senate Agriculture Committee this morning.

Press Release: Breakthrough Brings Algae Into Energy Spotlight

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact:  Amy Bucklin / 937-645-4604

− Ohio company slashes cost of harvesting, dewatering and drying;
Reduces processing cost by more than 99 percent −

MARYSVILLE, OH, March 23, 2009 – A technological breakthrough that dramatically reduces the cost of removing water from algae – making algae an economically feasible source of fuel – was announced today by AlgaeVenture Systems following a demonstration of the process to a select group of collaborators and funding sources.

“For nearly 40 years, it has been widely accepted that if the cost of removing, harvesting and dewatering algae could be reduced to $50 a ton, algae could become a significant source of fuel,” said Ross Youngs, CEO of Univenture, the parent corporation of AlgaeVenture Systems.

“Today we have demonstrated a truly disruptive technology that reduces that cost by more than 99 percent – from $875 per ton to $1.92 per ton,” Youngs said. “We believe that this breakthrough moves algae back into the spotlight as an economically viable, plentiful source of fuel in the future.”

The AlgaeVenture Systems breakthrough comes at a time when interest in algae is on the rise. It was originally studied as an alternative energy source after Continue Reading »
