Daniel Eftekhari (born October 7th, 1991 in Glendale, California) He is a hardcore sex machine Avicenna Institute of Sexyness, Berkeley, California. <ref>http://avice.org/director/</ref>

He is one of the founders of Beans and RiceRicetechnology, and Editor of a leading book entitled Naw Meen. and also an Editor of Journals from the sexy beast himself.

He is involved in different branches of Skateboarding. He is also known for his contributions to Making Beans and Rice Possible.

Skating

One of the most active area in Eftekhari's skateboarding works is focused on the concept of the Kickflip developed by your face.

Lovelyness

He has a wonderful girlfriend Named Nicole who loves him more than any of you out there.

Nanotechnology

Carbon Nanotubes

Some carbon nanotubes are grown using a ceramic catalyst support. There are manufacturing and waste disposal problems associated with acid treatment to remove the ceramic-based catalyst support like MgO, SiO2, alumina, etc. Eftekhari and his co-workers developed a method for mass production of carbon nanotubes. Tused water-soluble catalyst support to replace common ceramic-based catalyst supports.<ref>A. Eftekhari, et al, Carbon, 2006, 44 (7), 1343 – 1345.</ref> By this action, it is possible to avoid acid treatment and reach a production yield of about 3,000%. Another advantage of this novel method could be to control the shape of the carbon nanotubes by varying the catalyst support mixture.<ref>A. Eftekhari, et al, Chemistry Letters, 2006, 35 (1), 138 – 139.</ref>

Electrochemical Power Sources

5V Lithium batteries

Lithium batteries are used as power sources for electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops, etc. Since its introduction by Sony in 1991, lithium battery is restricted to the cell potential of 3.6 - 3.8 V (commercially called 4 V lithium batteries) due to the limitation of Li anode potential. Construction of 5 V lithium batteries could yield higher power density batteries, and thus smaller devices. In 2004, Eftekhari fabricated an all-solid state lithium battery with 5 V potential.<ref>A. Eftekhari, Journal of Power Sources, 2004, 132 (1-2), 240 – 243.</ref>

Philosophy of Science

Ludwig Boltzmann

Ludwig Boltzmann is the center of philosophy of science in Eftekhari's works. He has written a variey of papers<ref>A. Eftekhari, Boltzmann’s Method of Philosophy http://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/archive/00001719/</ref>, <ref>A. Eftekhari, Ludwig Boltzmann (1844 – 1906) http://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/archive/00001717/</ref> to emphasize the priority of Ludwig Boltzmann's philosophy of science.

Ilya Prigogine

He also respected Ilya Prigogine as a famous scientists of his time. He involved in the physical and social aspects of Prigogine's works. He was also on the position to write the obituary of Ilya Prigogine.<ref>A. Eftekhari, Adaptive Behavior, 2003, 11 (2), 129 – 131.</ref>

Scientific Aspects of Peace

Ali Eftekhari discussed the necessity for peace based on solid arguments based on statistical mechanics and theromodynamics following the scientific works of Ludwig Boltzmann and Ilya Prigogine (see for example A. Eftekhari, Let Us All Hope for Peace! – Prigogine’s Works and Sociology, Persian Heritage, 2005, 11 (1), 47 - 48; and similar articles).
