Bill Gates offering $100,000 in challenge to make condoms better. Asking Anyone To Think Beyond The Box. 'What if we could develop one that was preferred to no condom?'

The inventor of Microsoft has turned his attention in a much different direction!

The Gates Foundation is offering one inventor $100,000 to improve one of life's most recognizable products: the condom.

The task has been set forth through the Grand Challenges in Global Health Program and applications go until May for a 'Next Generation Condom that significantly preserves or enhances pleasure, in order to improve uptake and regular use.'

Recently 'Forbes' Magazine declared Gates the second wealthiest person on the planet with an estimated net worth of $67 billion

The Gates Foundation estimates that 15 billion units are sold during a year with 750 million people using condoms worldwide

Since 2008 more than 800 grants have been awarded to fifty countries.

They have been as far-reaching as finding a cure for HIV to using a microwave frequency to combat Malaria.

Many philanthropists have praised the Gates Foundation for targeting specific scientific or medical goals that achieve results.

In summarizing the rationale for the 'Next Generation Condom,' the grant-givers note that there has not been much innovation in the field.

'Condoms have been in use for about 400 years yet they have undergone very little technological improvement in the past 50 years.'

The benefits of using a condom are numerous. In addition to preventing pregnancy or STDs, condoms are relatively inexpensive.

However, the Foundation recognizes not everyone is going to see the upside towards protection.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is one of the most respected philanthropic organizations in the world and strives to cure diseases such as Malaria and HIV

Bill Gates (second from the left) speaks at the annual AIDS Conference on July 23, 2012 in Washington, DC.

'The primary drawback from the male perspective is that condoms decrease pleasure as compared to no condom, creating a trade-off that many men find unacceptable, particularly given that the decisions about use must be made just prior to intercourse. Is it possible to develop a product without this stigma, or better, one that is felt to enhance pleasure?'

Applications are currently being accepted for this eleventh round but not every proposal will be considered for the prize.

For example, the Gates Foundation will not be funding any plans that include 'exclusively non-technological, social, or educational intervention,' or 'concepts that would sacrifice the value of condoms for prevention of either unplanned pregnancy or HIV infection,' among other requirements.

The Gates Foundation is asking anyone to think beyond the box (or the rubber). 'What if we could develop one that was preferred to no condom?'

Would-be inventors who don't have a clue how to improve a condom have other avenues for working with the Gates Foundation, however.
Other topics that the Grand Challenges in Global Health are looking for include a 'One Health' concept that would combine human and veterinary medicine and 'increasing interoperability of social good data.'

OUCH!!! Man Get Screwdriver Lodged In His Head And Had A Cigarette Before Calling 911

Scroll down for video

Worrying: The unnamed 25-year-old fell with such force the tool was wedged 5cm into his forehead, narrowly missing his brain

A man has had a Phillips screwdriver surgically removed from his head after slipping face first onto it.
The 25-year-old man from Poland was doing some DIY in the garden when the freak accident happened.
He fell with such force the tool was wedged 5cm into his forehead, narrowly missing his brain.

Owch! An X-ray of the Polish man with a screw driver stuck in his head

Detecting a strange object near his eye, the man - who has chosen not to reveal his identity - took a look in his car mirror when he noticed the screwdriver lodged in his head.
But bizarrely he chose to have a cigarette before asking his neighbour to take him to hospital.

It took doctors at University Hospital in Bialystok three hours to remove the implement from his head which narrowly missed his vital organs.
And remarkable he now well on his way to making a full recovery.

He said: 'I don't remember what happened that day, at some point when I was working in my garden I slipped and fall down.
'Next thing I remember it was my hand hurting and some weird thing near my eyes. I went to my car to check in the mirror what's that and I saw the screwdriver in my head.
'I was shocked. I smoked a cigarette to calm down and then I went to call my neighbour to take me to hospital.'

China suing Grenada

ST GEORGE'S, Grenada, Thursday March 7, 2013 – According to reports in the New York Post, China’s Export-Import Bank filed a lawsuit in a New York federal court on Monday (March 4) to recover outstanding monies owed to it. 

The lawsuit is reportedly over an unpaid judgment worth US$32 million against Grenada, which the Chinese state-controlled bank is still trying to recover. 

In February last year, the Grenada airport was almost crippled when Taiwan’s Export-Import Bank started to garnish millions of dollars in airline landing fees to aid it in recovering US$25 million in outstanding loan payments awarded to it by a New York court. 

Although China’s Export-Import Bank did not restructure its Grenada claims when others did in 2005 and 2006 when other creditors agreed to take big ‘haircuts’ on the debts owed to them, the bank is reportedly now using the “equal treatment” legal argument pioneered by Paul Singer’s Elliott Management against Argentina to argue that Grenada must pay it each time the country makes a payment to creditors. 

However, analysts are saying that Grenada is likely to default on its debt again soon, which could complicate China’s attempts at recovering its debt. 

Grenada has paid more than US$43 million to the other creditors since its last default, but the New York Post quotes emerging market debt hedge fund manager Hans Humes as saying that the Caribbean island is likely to miss its next coupon payment, which is due next Friday (March 15).   Click here to receive free news bulletins via email from Caribbean360. (View sample)
