Other Added - Ethanol Explosion! How to Profit

Now, that future is here:

Every country on the planet wants to see more of its automobiles running on renewable fuels like ethanol. And with 600 million gas- and diesel-burning cars and trucks on the road today, that implies the most massive transformation since the industrial revolution. Every major government is implementing policies that stimulate ethanol consumption. And with hundreds of billions of public money pouring into research and development, this is not exactly a temporary fling. Wealthy individuals, large banks, major mutual funds are all looking more seriously at ethanol. And yet, the big flows of investment money into ethanol have barely begun. Why the Hesitation?

I Count Three Reasons ...

• First, some investors seem to think investing in ethanol is strictly for environmentalists. They don’t believe global warming is a man-made phenomenon, and they don’t agree that cars should have to shift from gasoline to biofuels. So they don’t see much future in ethanol.

Big mistake! The shift to ethanol is not just about burning cleaner fuel. As Elisabeth’s father pointed out over three decades ago, ethanol is also about reducing our dependence on petroleum imports ... slashing our vulnerability to wars and revolutions in oil-rich regions of the globe ... and gaining firmer control over our own destiny.

• Second, investors have focused on the fact that gas stations in the U.S. are resisting alternative fuels, making it almost impossible for ethanol to reach American consumers.

But as I’ll show you in a moment, the consumption of pure ethanol (the kind that is being resisted in the U.S.) is not the primary source of demand today. Moreover, the U.S. is just one of many growing world markets.

• Third and most recently, some investors have hesitated to move into ethanol because they see petroleum prices coming down. If oil prices don’t go up, they figure, ethanol won’t make it either.

We disagree. The price for crude oil could fall to $40 per barrel, and it would barely make a dent in a massive global transformation to ethanol that’s now under way. Most important, their hesitation is your opportunity. It has helped bring down the price of some of the leading ethanol stocks. And it has opened a brief time window to jump in. I’ll show you where in a just moment. But first, join me on a brief global tour — so you can see for yourself how broadly based the ethanol revolution has already become.

A New Mega-Industry Is Born

For at least two decades — from the early 1980s to the early 2000s — the ethanol industry was largely stagnant.

Ethanol production in the U.S. and Canada was growing, but only gradually. Brazil’s ethanol output was actually sliding. And worldwide output was stagnating. Then, at the turn of the new millennium, two things happened: The U.S. government and industry began to push ethanol more forcefully. And Brazil, still the world’s leading producer despite the earlier decline, took off!

Result: Worldwide ethanol production has nearly doubled in five years ... the surge in volume has triggered the development of new, more efficient technologies ... and a new mega-industry has been born.

Right now, the only country with cars running on pure ethanol is Brazil. But a mix of ethanol and gasoline is used in the U.S., the European Union, Mexico, India, Argentina, Columbia and, now, Japan. Here’s a country-by-country rundown ...

Brazilian Ethanol: World’s Richest Investors Are Starting to Pile In! What's on Your Meeting Agenda?
Conducting great meetings depends on several activities that occur before, during, and after each event. To help you establish the conditions for success and attain the very best results, this article lists essential tips on using meeting notices, agendas, and summaries.Use Meeting Notices to Alert Your AttendeesMeeting notices act as an "early warning system" for your participants. You should use them regularly and give recipients plenty of lead time -- for example, at least a week. Avoid surprising people with a last-minute summons that disrupts their entire day. Be sure your meeting notice includes all key information:1) Meeting date2) Starting and ending times3) Purpose and objectives4) List of participants5) Location with directions or access instructions, and6) Proposed agendaThat way, everyone will know exactly what to expect, what to do, what their time commitment is, and what's in it for them!Do All Meetings Need an Agenda?You may be wondering whether an agenda is absolutely necessary. The answer is, it depends!An agenda provides structure; however:* the fewer the people involved* the fewer the topics you'll have to discuss* the longer the time you have available, and* the lower your expectations are......the less you'll need structure to get something done. If, say, you're just going out for a long lunch with a few people to toss around some ideas on a single topic, and you have no real expectations for what you need to accomplish, then you probably don't need an agenda.Conversely, if you:* involve more people* to discuss more subjects* in a compressed time frame* with some very specific expectations for the outcome...althy individuals, large banks, major mutual funds are all looking more seriously at ethanol.

Brazilian Ethanol: World’s Richest Investors Are Starting to Pile In! Feeding the Small Business Ecosystem
Forgive what may seem like a bit of a theoretical argument today. Sometimes you have to step back and get a sense of the biggest picture in order to understand how all the simple, practical parts relate.Small business is often held together with sweat, creativity and a heavy use of duct tape. (In case you ever wondered where I came up with the term Duct Tape Marketing.) That's the outer reality of small business. The inner reality, the part that most don't see and even the owner of the business might not understand, is more like a living breathing ecosystem.I didn't really excel in science in school, but to me the parallel is obvious. In an ecosystem, the many parts are dependent upon each other for success. In a small business, this is equally true and just as hard to measure and control.There are lots of small businesses out there that appear healthy and happy on the outside but are being held back by some component of the overall system. The very first thing you must do is acknowledge this idea of dependant parts. If one isn't thriving, isn't even noticed, others will suffer.It's very hard to have a healthy business if the employees don't feel appreciated. It's very hard to have a healthy business if clients don't know how your business is unique. It's very hard to have a healthy business if your referral partners don't know who makes an ideal client for your business.There are countless examples of growing businesses that ignore what I'm suggesting, but I wonder if they are fun places to work and do business with?Thinking strategically about your own small business ecosystem requires understanding who all the players are, the experience you want them to have with your business, and the tools you need to employ to make this integration happenn oil-rich regions of the globe ... and gaining firmer control over our own destiny.

Brazilian Ethanol: World’s Richest Investors Are Starting to Pile In! How to Prevent Distortion, Rumors, and Hearsay
Why is listening so difficult, and what can we do about it? Why do"rumors and hearsay continue, and how do we stop them? The first step is to uncover the root of these problems, which in turn will provide some solutions.Problem One: People Don’t ListenAlthough studies differ on the matter, many conclude that people speak about 150 to 200 words per minute and think at least 600 words per minute -- and probably a lot faster than that. Whatever the research, it is universally accepted that we all think faster than we speak. Therein lies the challenge. Our brains operate significantly faster than the rate at which someone can speak.When we’re listening to someone, we have the time to add a significant amount to what that person is actually saying to us. We think. We add those extra words. We interpret. We twist. We alter the message! After all, a brain has got to do something with all that extra time!While your boss or your spouse or your best friend is talking, your brain is chugging along, embroidering all manner of frills and lace around the edges of the real message. While your brain is doing all this tinkering with the incoming words, it is also repeatedly hitting the save button, dumping the whole thing -- the real words and the embroidery -- into your memory. The problem is that your brain doesn’t bother to separate that information.So there is just this one file labeled: “Conversation Last Monday with Sally about the New Project, and everything gets dumped into the file willy-nilly. On Friday afternoon, when you sit down to sort out that conversation about that critical new project, you mentally open the file and start removing pieces of information -- without the and it would barely make a dent in a massive global transformation to ethanol that’s now under way.

Brazilian Ethanol: World’s Richest Investors Are Starting to Pile In! Nina Winters Wins Sculpture Commission for New Native American Cultural Center
This is the third in a series of articles about the internationally collected sculptor, Nina Winters.When I spoke with Nina from her studio in Clearwater, Florida, I found out that she was awarded yet another major monumental sculpture. This project is to create the central sculpture for a new Native American themed resort.The 10 foot high $250,000 sculpture will represent the “Gathering of the Nations”.A new Native American Cultural Center, a “living history”, is being created in the environs of the metropolis of Las Vegas. It will be dedicated to all the Indian Nations of the North American continent.The nations (colloquially known as “tribes”) include the Apache, Arapaho, Blackfoot, Cherokee, Cheyenne, Chikasaw, Chinook, Chippewa (Ojibwe), Choctaw, Creek, Crow, Hopi, Huron, Kiowa, Mohawk (Iroquois), Navajo, Nez Perce, Paiute, Pawnee, Pueblo, Seminole, Shawnee and Shoshone.The ground breaking is planned for May 2007.One reason she was chosen to do this project is because of her intense interest in the ecology of the planet and her well-known fight for the spiritual freedom of humanity. These match closely with the goals of the Indian peoples. She has a unique ability to create a strong emotional impact with her bronze sculptures. Her work conveys the power and depth of the human spirit.I queried Nina as to her ideas for the piece. She replied, “It is important to represent all the nations and to acknowledge them for coming together peacefully as an example to the rest of the world.”She continued elaborating on her theme. “I am currently working on this in my studio and the predominant idea is that of a dancer who is more of a spirit than a body. The Indian people understand that they are spiritual beings and I want toing.

Brazilian Ethanol: World’s Richest Investors Are Starting to Pile In!

George Soros’s Adeco has recently bought a major ethanol plant in Brazil. Bill Gates acquired a share in three new plants in Brazil’s western state of Mato Grosso do Sul. Even Google’s Larry Page and Sergei Brin have revealed plans to invest in Brazilian ethanol. International companies are one step ahead of them: Infinity Bio-Energy, which trades on the London exchange, already operates Brazilian ethanol plants valued at $200 million and plans to invest another $500 million in five more plants by year-end. Evergreen, a British group, has recently bought Cridasa, a major ethanol producer in Minas Gerais. And the French group Tereos bought 6% of Brazilian ethanol producer Cosan and owns three plants.

Overall, investments in Brazil’s ethanol industry are surging. In 2005, they were about $6 billion, including new plants, acquisitions and expansions. In 2006, they’ve surged to nearly $10 billion. And by 2010, even if there’s a recession in the U.S., they should hit at least $15 billion.

The main attraction: Ethanol is transforming Brazil’s economy, and Brazil’s ethanol technology is about to transform the world.

The key factor: Innovative ways of lowering the cost of production. Back in 1980, it cost Brazil’s ethanol producers over $2.60 to make just one gallon — not exactly competitive with gasoline!

But now, Brazil is churning out ethanol for a meager 75 cents per gallon. And Brazil’s science agencies are funding a raft of new R&D to drive the cost down even further. So even if petroleum and gasoline prices fall further, Brazil’s ethanol will remain extremely competitive. Already, nearly every single car rolling off Brazil’s assembly lines has a flex engine capable of burning either ethanol or gasoline. So when we’re driving in Brazil, we can fill up with whichever fuel happens to be cheaper. And when our tank is half empty, we can even mix the two fuels at will. The flex engine has far-reaching implications. And although it’s going to take time, ultimately, I see nothing that can stop it from spreading to the world’s largest fuel consumers — the U.S., Europe, Japan, China and India.

Even before that technological shift takes place, Brazil’s shipments of ethanol to overseas markets are surging. Late last year, it jumped 91 percent to 144 million gallons from 76 million gallons a year earlier. Plus, Brazil is negotiating with Japan, China, India and the EU to export still more. Even Brazil’s ethanol exports to the U.S. are growing despite a huge, 50-cent-plus tariff per gallon.

U.S. Ethanol Industry Starting to Ramp Up

As you well know, in the realm of petroleum and gasoline, production in the U.S. has been stagnant, with virtually no new refineries built in the U.S. since 1976.

Not so in the ethanol industry! Even while America’s oil refineries were aging, over 100 new ethanol production facilities have been built in the United States.

And that was mostly before August 8, 2005, when President Bush signed the Energy Policy Act — a renewable
