if we put aside all the possible good news that could arrive this year form KMK and have a read of this new funded research by RAIN, with a £12m plus grant from UK Research and Innovation . ....you can see another vast opportunity KMK has available to it.
"The nuclear industry is of enormous importance to UK society and its economy both in the short and long-term. Decommissioning the UK's legacy facilities is currently costing the UK Government approximately £3Bn/year, with estimates of its total cost over the next 120 years ranging from £90Bn-220Bn. Investment in Nuclear New Build (NNB) before 2030 is expected to be approximately £60Bn and the cost of building and operating a geological disposal facility is approximately £14Bn.....Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (RAI) has a significant part to play in the UK's decommissioning programme with the National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) estimating 20% of the costs of complex decommissioning projects will be spent on RAI, assuming the continued reliance on bespoke single use solutions. RAIN will deliver innovation in modular, reusable robotics with the target of achieving >20% improvements in cost and productivity in decommissioning and zero-human entries in to radioactive facilities. Conservative estimates by NNL indicate that robotic systems have already resulted in productivity improvements of >10% and that RAI has the potential to reduce decommissioning costs across the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) estate by approximately £11.7Bn...Decommissioning legacy nuclear facilities and the inspection of new and old nuclear power plants is not a problem confined to the UK. The race to develop nuclear weapons and prototype reactors has left considerable decommissioning challenges in the USA, Russia, Korea and many other nations. In 2014 the IAEA recorded that there were a total of 438 nuclear reactors in operation with a further 59 under construction. The cost of decommissioning these reactors, legacy facilities and the additional 150 reactors that are already in permanent shutdown will cost approximately £1T. The development of reliable, functional robotic systems has the potential to transform decommissioning operations in all these countries and hence the export market for nuclear robotics is vast. The UK has an established reputation for delivering world leading nuclear science research and innovative decommissioning solutions and thus has the potential to become the recognised world leader in nuclear robotics."

Kromek detectors already incorporated in RAINs Remote Inspection vehicles .
"and a detector and collimator that is interchangeable with a Kromek GR1. "

Sorry. I meant No mention of Kromek , or any other companies.

This is a good read :) Even though mention of KMK it has Kromek's offering all over it.

If you look at Chill smoke media page on their web site. Sums it up really. No cowboy, no cow, not even a sausage. How long since they recruited media gurus.

According to the images supplied the truth is If you smoke CHILL you have to wear a cycle helmet - even if your sitting on top of a mountain ( as we all do) or looking lost in the Gobi dessert.
There is a war going on out there with TAAT the equivalent of KFC of the high street selling its smokes at less than £6 a pack of twenty vs CHILL the Harrods High tea and cream cakes at just under £10 for just ten smokes....i know which one the news agents, convenience stores, etc etc Croydon and the other London boroughs will be interested in ....its not Harrods prices its the one they can sell a pack per person daily.
Chill just better hope that its product tastes better than the old TAAT, otherwise looses on price and taste.... selling in US at $4 for twenty - and no smoking helmet required.

Thanks Everyone . Happy Christmas to you ALL.

"DARPA) SIGMA+ program announced Friday it had recently concluded a three-month-long pilot study of sensors intended to support early detection of weapons of mass destruction (WMD)................The ultimate goal is to outfit a citywide fleet of LE or other public service vehicles to enable a continuously refreshed mobile network that can detect WMD threats with low false-alarm rates across a city or region.”

Hi jcap22. Yes, sorry i got confused with the contracts.

I have found the timeline.
"The extended contract is now set to conclude in June 2021"
https://www.earlham.ac.uk/newsroom/mobile-biological-pathogen-detector-project-boosted-52m-extension

This from a week ago. Does anyone know when this pathogen detector will be ready commercially. They have just received more funding form DARPA - does this mean it has another 6-12 months work to do on it , or are we close. Very exciting time.

Regarding FDBK's partnership with Qure.ai. I did not know that not only is QURE In a PPP ( Publi Private Partnership ) with Karnataka Health authority to provide their AI diagnostic kits to fight TB which obviously should put FDBK in a strong position BUT also Qure.ai is also partners with PATH .
https://www.path.org/articles/how-computers-can-help-screen-tb/

"PATH is already supporting the use of CAD tools in the countries where we work. For instance, we have collaborated with partners in India, Myanmar, and Vietnam to test and demonstrate Qure.ai’s CAD triaging tool, qXR. Available at an affordable price, qXR’s AI algorithm for reading chest x-rays enhances the diagnostic accuracy of TB to greater than 95 percent.

And in Zambia, PATH deployed the mobile OneStopTB clinic in the Copperbelt Province in March 2020. The clinic uses a digital x-ray with AI-augmented picture reading and a GeneXpert machine. Together these tools helped diagnose more than 1,300 people, or 21 percent, of the more than 6,300 people screened in the last half of 2020
PATH will continue to collaborate with governments and technology partners to implement and scale CAD technologies, with a focus on the Stop TB Partnership’s Global Drug Facility for increasing access to TB diagnostics and treatment."
If FDBK can become involved with PATH on the back of their partnership with Qure.ai - then it opens up unbelievable possibility's .

No. Chill seem very competent in promoting themselves now they have a couple more staff to help lol

The difference it has made these past three months is amazing. lol

You a Chill club volunteer? or do they pay you in free products.

No. From Billy Boy.

Lionel.
i think we can wait for some feedback from BillyBoy as he has spent his own money on the products and will give some impartial feedback, i am sure. Getting the firm to supply you with your free products does not usually get the most balanced view - as it comes over a bit like Avon calling. Have you tried door to door?

Can anyone access it.

My experience with KMK over past 3 years or so ( in and out a bit randomly) is everyone is a disbeliever most the year but 2, possibly 3 times a year it becomes popular and shoots up ( around every six months or so), New Year has been good to me here, plus we do have what could be with some luck - substantial news pending - so could be a good start to 2022.

I'm adding as 15p is cheap imo.

CM. I don't think i have proved anything, and neither have you.

RNS day today and so far only £537.68 worth of shares bought....

Wdasse. If anyone went shopping anywhere in the UK they would certainly not find a pack of CHILL smokes to enjoy....London's a big confined place, word spreads quick, could easily sell 25,000 packs a day with a bit of promotion, linked into the clubs, bars and night time industry. That's less people than visit 12 streets in Soho daily.
That's £18 m a year just as a starter -with no competition. It will be picked up by the press sometime soon i feel...and become another thing you must try when here......could explode. First mover advantage taken just like that.

You should try not to be so easily pleased and expect more.....if this is an example of news we can expect throughout 2023 then its going to be another long year.

Playing soccer indoors is just the sort of thing that's going to be very popular over the next few months ....lol

Well, That's the Xmas bonus.....things must be worse than many suspect.... .what are they doing with all this time....there must be some news related to business progress, even some sales to announce, surely.

I'm all for animal rights, but surely small league footballers have rights too :)
