This elegant 1 ℓimit faucet encourages — and even enforces — water conservation by giving you less water to use. The design relies on the simple principle of "what you see is what you get" — the faucet fills the attached glass tube with exactly one liter of water for washing hands, and it needs to be turned off again before it will recharge. The brainchild of designers Yonggu Do, Dohyung Kim and Sewon Oh, the faucet is a clever bit of stingy design.
We love how the 1 ℓimit faucet makes the user re-consider a resource that they might otherwise take for granted. It takes a tremendous amount of embodied energy and resources to source, heat and purify water before we put it back into the environment. Leaving a water-saving faucet on for one minute will use over 7 liters of water, much of which is unnecessarily wasted.
The consequences are not as severe as the Poor Little Fishbowl Sink we featured, but the faucet may certainly try your patience — if you are not mindful of your water consumption you'll have to wait for it to fill again. Perhaps the visual reference of a liter of water will encourage users will appreciate how much water they use when not paying attention. Even better, users will see how little water they really need to get the job done, although it may not be as warm as they would like it. If you're going to be frugal why not do it in style.

I absolutely love multiple facets of this faucet's design! Well done. Round a few more edges to inhibit localizations of bacterial growth in a public environment, and maybe build with antibacterial materials that're now out there, and it's perfect.

This flies in the face of proper sanitary hand-washing which requires 30 seconds of hot water and soap. Are you hippies trying to kill us all with disease?

By Michael W. Mundt, Michael D. Mabry and Fabio Battaglia
UPDATED: The SEC staff has lifted its almost three-year moratorium on the consideration of exemptive applications to permit actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that would invest in derivatives. In a speech at an ALI CLE Conference on Investment Adviser Regulation in New York City on Dec. 6, 2012, Norm Champ, the Director of the Division of Investment Management at the SEC, announced that "Division staff will no longer defer consideration of exemptive requests under the Investment Company Act relating to actively managed ETFs that make use of derivatives."1
The moratorium on the use of derivatives by active ETFs was first announced publicly in an SEC press release on March 25, 2010.2 The press release stated that the Division was conducting a review to evaluate the use of derivatives by mutual funds, ETFs and other investment companies, and indicated that, pending completion of this review, the Division would defer consideration of exemptive applications relating to actively managed and leveraged ETFs that would make significant investments in derivatives. Subsequent to the press release, the SEC only granted exemptive relief to actively managed ETFs that would agree not to invest in any options contracts, futures contracts or swap agreements.
On Aug. 31, 2011, the SEC issued a Concept Release on the use of derivatives by investment companies.3 Despite the ongoing prohibition on the use of derivatives in new orders for active ETFs, the Concept Release only presented three questions specific to ETFs: "How do ETFs use derivatives? Do they use derivatives for the same purposes that other open-end funds use them? Does an ETF's use of derivatives raise unique investor protection concerns under the Investment Company Act?"
In his speech, Mr. Champ noted that the SEC had received more than fifty comment letters on the Concept Release.4 He reported that "[s]ince the comment period ended about a year ago, the staff has been actively analyzing the comments, following up with certain commenters on the issues or suggestions they have raised, and formulating initial recommendations for potential further guidance." He added that the review is still ongoing, citing "the complexity and significance of the issues relating to funds' use of derivatives, both for the fund industry and for the protection of investors."
Despite the continuing derivatives review, Mr. Champ stated that the Division would resume consideration of exemptive applications for active ETFs that intend to use derivatives. Those applications would require two new representations, however, "to address some of the concerns that led to the Division's decision to defer consideration of these types of applications." The first representation is that "the ETF's board periodically will review and approve the ETF's use of derivatives and how the ETF's investment adviser assesses and manages risk with respect to the ETF's use of derivatives." In addition, active ETFs must represent that "the ETF's disclosure of its use of derivatives in its offering documents and periodic reports is consistent with relevant Commission and staff guidance." Mr. Champ went on to note that active ETFs may also be subject to restrictions on derivatives imposed by the rules of their listing exchange as well as conditions of regulatory relief granted by the Division of Trading and Markets at the SEC.
The derivatives moratorium has not been lifted for all ETFs, however. The deferral of exemptive applications for "leveraged" ETFs remains in place. The SEC press release announcing the moratorium in 2010 described "leveraged" ETFs as index-based ETFs that seek to deliver multiples or inverse multiples of the daily performance of the selected index using swaps and other derivatives. Without citing any specific issues, Mr. Champ concluded that "[b]ecause of concerns regarding leveraged ETFs . . . we continue not to support new exemptive relief for such ETFs."
Applicants with currently pending active ETF applications are expected to receive comments that will implement the newly required representations in lieu of the representation prohibiting the use of derivatives. With respect to active ETFs that previously obtained orders subject to the derivatives prohibition, the SEC staff has issued a no-action position that it would not recommend enforcement action if ETFs operating in reliance on such orders invest in options contracts, futures contracts or swap agreements provided that they comply with the new representations.5

Good Monday everyone. I've got busy day ahead of me. School is starting today and that will consume a big chunk of my time.I'll have all three grandchildren at some point today while their mothers head over to the college for books, etc. I'm really happy to see both my daughter and daughter-in-law taking classes.
I had weird stress dreams all night so I have a headache and tiredness to deal with today. I may just drop what I am doing and take a nice walk before the rain sets in.
What is everyone else up to today?
|Mon, 08-12-2013 - 8:36am
Home, sweet home! I was able to all my laundry done and unpacked yesterday so things are "normal" again. I was supposed to work today but she has cancelled. I got a 4 article fitness job while I was in the Midwest! I've already finished and submitted 1 article and have 3 more to do so if you have ideas, I'd love to hear them!
I'm planning on doing another Beast video today. It's lifting. And later on today, I'm taking DH's truck + trailer out for practice driving as we are leaving NEXT WEEK! I feel like there's so much to do. Once we're done practice driving, I can start packing up the trailer which will help me feel like there's less.

Two big oil companies are evacuating their workers from Iraq, as the President still considers military action.
Researchers from the University of Texas and the University of Texas at Arlington will be testing water in Montague County to see if chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing, or fracking as it's commonly called, make their way into groundwater in Montague County.
This story begins in the 1900's when oil was discovered on Spindletop Hill in Texas the first major gusher of the Texas oil boom.
An estimated 2,000 barrels of crude oil rushed from a ruptured pipeline soaking a neighborhood.
Two people are hospitalized after an early morning explosion and fire at an East Texas oil storage facility.
Proud Texans have long welcomed the industry because of the cash it brings to sustain agriculture, but also see its presence as part of their patriotic duty to help wean the United States off "foreign" oil. So the answer to companies that wanted to build pipelines has usually been simple: Yes.
Oklahoma is the best place on earth to do business in oil and gas.
"Deep Impact: The History of Oil and Gas in North Texas" contains a narrative history of the industry, and gives biographies of some of the key players.
Oil and gas industry experts addressed what they say is the biggest problem facing their industry: high energy prices. Experts say the key to affordable energy is through domestic energy sources.
Solar energy panels can help companies be more environmentally friendly and also help them save on energy cost.

Sept 10 - The North American economy should grow 2 percent this year and improve through 2013, with a strong performance from residential building in the U.S. and commercial construction in Canada, according to the North American Outlook released by BMO Economics.
The modest growth of 2 percent for 2012 in the United States will pick up through 2013 amid improved household finances and a strengthening housing recovery. Growth is expected to reach 2.8 percent by the end of 2013.
"Home sales and starts have picked up from depressed levels, supported by record-low mortgage rates, pent-up demand and investor interest," said Sal Guatieri, senior economist, BMO Capital Markets. "House prices are rising, lifting household wealth and encouraging first-time buyers to take the plunge. Rising house and equity values should allow households to soon recover the rest of the $16 trillion in wealth that was lost during the Great Recession."
Other factors include:
Because of elevated unemployment, "we now expect the Fed will delay any rate hikes until mid-2015," said Mr. Guatieri.
"Further Fed easing should encourage the bank to hold overnight rates steady at 1 percent for somewhat longer than we previously thought, likely until autumn 2013," added Guatieri.
Guatieri noted that several risks to the North American economy remain, including a possible eurozone breakup, pending spending cuts and tax increases in the United States, a sharp correction in the Vancouver and Toronto housing markets and the potential for a hard landing in China.

|Faculty Bio
Madeline Muntersbjorn is an Associate Professor of Philosophy. She received her Ph.D. in 1994 from the University of Pittsburgh's History and Philosophy of Science Department. Her primary research area is the history and philosophy of mathematics, with a focus on the development of the calculus in the seventeenth-century. The central question guiding her research is: "What role do representational innovations play in the growth of mathematical knowledge?" Currently, she studies Pierre de Fermat's incorporation of algebraic reasoning and symbolism in his solution of tangent, rectification, and quadrature problems.
Her research suggests that mathematical objects are emergent phenomena, similar to natural kinds. They begin as tacit insights responsible for increased problem-solving generality. Representational innovations are often introduced to make these implicit features of successful mathematical reasoning explicit. Introduced primarily as heuristic aids, these new notations are taken to refer to mathematical objects as the scope of mathematics grows. On her view, mathematics is neither created nor discovered. Rather, mathematics is cultivated. For more, see "Naturalism, Notation, and the Metaphysics of Mathematics," in Philosophia Mathematica (3) Vol. 7 (1999), pp. 178-199.
Atthe University of Toledo, she teaches a variety of courses: Introduction to Logic [PHIL 1010], Introduction to Philosophy [PHIL 2200], Symbolic Logic [PHIL/MATH 3000], Philosophy of Biology [PHIL 3300], Science and Society [PHIL 3310], Philosophy of Mathematics [PHIL 3320], Philosophy of Natural Science [PHIL 4300/5300]. In 1997, she won a grant from the Center for Teaching Excellence to develop the interdisciplinary course, The Self in Science-Fact and Science-Fiction.

5 Weird Foods on the Menu of the Future
Wondering what will be for dinner 20 or 30 years from now? Here's what your meal might look like in the not-so-distant future.
By Joshua A. Krisch
The Next Red Meat: Lab-Grown Beef
Last year Mark Post of Maastricht University in the Netherlands unveiled the first laboratory-grown beef hamburger. The beef pattygrown using stem cells from a cow's shoulderlooked, smelled, and even tasted roughly like a hamburger. At $330,000 a pop, even a single laboratory-grown beef burger is not quite ready for your next backyard barbecue. But in-vitro beef is good for the environment, and studies have shown that it produces far fewer greenhouse gases than conventional cattle rearing. As the science gets better, a less expensive lab burger may not be far off.

Consultants Advise: Bring Sporks to New Gunfight with the Left
By Lloyd Marcus
Word on the political street from GOP consultants and the left is that Rush Limbaugh and the Tea Party cost Romney the election. We conservatives are advised to "moderate our tone" and back away from our "extremist ideas."
So let me make sure I understand. Obama and company were allowed to go for the jugular, using false narratives (lies) to win votes. They said Romney hates dogs, blacks, women, and the poor. Heck, they even threw in the absurd accusation that Romney was responsible for the death of a working man's wife. Check and mate. Game over. Obama won. Did anyone suggest Team Obama "moderate their tone"?
But when Rush Limbaugh exposed and the Tea Party rejected Obama's socialistic agenda, Team Obama, which includes the mainstream media, called us racists. When we expressed our biblical belief that marriage should remain defined as between one man and one woman, we were called extremists. And when did it become extreme to believe it immoral to deny medical assistance to babies who survive abortions?
And for the record, once and for all, conservatives do not care what consenting adults do in their bedrooms. All we ask is that we not be forced to fund it or be mandated to say that it is OK and normal.
Unfortunately, since Romney lost, GOP consultants have joined the chorus of folks on the left calling for conservatives to back away from our core beliefs and go along to get along with Obama. They claim that this is what younger non-whites and female voters want.
I say, "Hogwash!" Many younger, non-white, and female voters are clueless about Obama's destruction of America, the virtues of conservatism, and why liberalism sucks!

Republican "strategists" claim that the party must move to the left in order to entice minority voting blocks to vote Republican. If this is true, then why would I not just cut out the middle man and vote Democrat?
Note to Republican strategists – you need more of a spine; not less.Noteworthy Comment +19
Well, there it is folks. The throwdown. It's at this point we either pack up our gear and move further west or we stand and fight. Since the only thing further west is the Big O as in Pacific Ocean, I guess that means we take out the "Republican Strategist" class first and worry about the rest of the weasels after that.
Anyone up for a game of Tea Party Mid Terms?Noteworthy Comment +25
Here's the way it goes. It's okay if you say horrible things about someone if those things are lies. You know, sort of like a double negative in a sentence? But if the horrible things you are expounding are the truth, well that's another matter. Don't tell off on us! Keep your mouth shut.+5
Here's the future. I can't say when it will happen – next year, the year after that maybe in 5 years but certainly not longer than 10 years.
Bascially, the Federal government will continue to promise more than it can deliver and borrow more than it can repay. Interest rates will rise, prices will rise, unemployment will rise and then one day it all collapses. Prices spiral out of sight, interest rates go into the double digits and the stock and bond markets both crash. Our current trajetory is unsustainable.
When it all goes to hell the only solution that will be left will be Conservative reforms; cut spending, cut regulations, release the private sector, free the marketplace and toss out the socialist for good. As the Socialist / Fascist / elites keep responding with the wrong approach to the entitlements problem we need to keep Conservative principles alive.
We need to stake ourselves to a piece of good ground like the Dog Soldiers of the Plains Indians and fight to the bloody end. We need to be Winston Churchill after Dunkirk and be dedicated to fighting them on beaches, the landing grounds, the fields, streets and the hills if necessary.
Socialism is doomed to fail, Freedom destined to succeed. Its as simple as that. We have to teach the rest of the country now and get them with the program before the collapse or wait for the fall and welcome them when they are forced to join the freedom solution.Noteworthy Comment +16
The fact that they are trying to turn us is the very reason we must stay the course and turn even harder away.
The left would just love it if we altered course now, they can call us sell outs then.
On one side rocks, the other side the falls, and narrow is the path between.
The country will collapse, only those who hold strong to the right course will be able to rebuild and reunite the country. Only those who do not sway with the poles and political winds will be trusted. And trust is what we do not have any of in any elected office now.
The Tea Party must push past both parties and they must do it now. The Dems and GOP are 2 handles of the same whip. I have been whipped enough. Time to take the court, ball and game away from both of them.Noteworthy Comment +14
"He who stands for nothing will fall for anything."
Alexander HamiltonNoteworthy Comment +14
I heard Rush talk about this on his show a couple of weeks ago. I for one would/will believe Rush over ANY politician!!! Get some backbone GOP!+9
When is the GOP going to stop taking advice from the people who want to see them destroyed?
Don't they realize that liberals are in the business of lying?
The media will twist the narrative no matter what Republicans do.
Do you think Obama really IS "cool" and "brilliant"?
Do you think Michelle really IS "beautiful" and "fashionable"?Noteworthy Comment +10
We must purge from the republican party the old school, middle of the road, enablers of creeping socialism/tyranny by bureaucracy rinos. They are every bit the enemies of liberty as the democrats. They are either spineless, clueless, or in bed with democrats… perhaps all of the above.Noteworthy Comment +10
Apparently there are no "GOP consultants" that have any regard for this country.+5
Listening to these RINO "Republican strategists" has brought us to the mess we're in now.
And what even steven said; no support whatsoever for the RINOs.+6
C'mon you guys, you keep talking as if the ultimate goal of both parties isn't the same.+3
Rush Limbaugh and The Tea Party DID NOT run the Romney campaign.
THAT is the sole reason Romney lost.+4
So basically, if we all act like Democrats, all Democrats will love us. Yeaaaaah, we already see how that worked out. Eight years of big government "compassionate conservatism" got us a full fledged racist Marxist president and two utterly pathetic Rep candidates that the rank and file knew were going to lose before they were nominated.
These "consultants" want the Republican party to be the Tories to the DNC's Labour. Basically, a slightly more "responsible" steward of a crushing, dehumanizing god-state. We can decide just how segregated our Balkanized, Apartheid society will be and whether the top marginal tax rate will 85% or 90%. Republicans with fight for how much "green space" our new habitation blocks will have and how much "retributive justice" is enough for each remaining white, heterosexual male to endure.
And in the end, it will make no difference because the coalition of ruling minorities that make up much of the modern Dem voting base will still vote Dem. And the Rep "consultant class" will continue to insist that they'll vote for us if we just moderate a bit more. Just like they haven't done in the past.+2
When we begin to abandon our values and principles, we become leftist-lite. If we continue along that path, sooner or later the "lite" part will disappear.
No thanks.+5
Stop Asking, and DEMAND that we not be forced to fund it or be mandated …
GOP CONSULTANTS also known as Obamaites, aka, Democrats, Liberals, Progressives, Communists, Socialists….get the big pic?0

The UN will investigate the deaths of nine people allegedly shot by South Sudanese soldiers in Western Bahr el Ghazal state in the country's northwest.
"UNMISS (the UN mission in South Sudan) is investigating the use of force and other reports of violence in order toestablish the facts behind these tragic events," UNMISS said in a statement on Friday.
"Nine civilians have been confirmed killed and many more injured in incidents involving demonstrators and members of the security forces," the statement said.
The incident on December 8 was captured in an amateur footage exclusively accessed by Al Jazeera in which soldiers are seen firing at a crowd of unarmed demonstrators in Wau, capital of Western Bahr el Ghazal state.
South Sudan's Civil Society Alliance, an umbrella group for local civil society organisations, quoted witnesses saying the demonstrators had been unarmed and protesting peacefully.
It began when the army was sent to dismantle road blocks set up by civilians protesting against plans to move the municipal council headquarters outside Wau.
Ateny Wek, spokesman for the Civil Society Alliance, said two more people had died from their injuries, bringing the death toll to eleven, with scores of others injured.
"It was barbaric for the state authorities to use live ammunition. They were marching peacefully towards stategovernment headquarters. We have eyewitnesses," Wek told Reuters.
South Sudan's government has been struggling to reform its soaring security services since it split from Sudan in July last year after a long civil war that has left the new country awash with weapons.
South Sudan's army, an assortment of poorly-trained former guerrilla fighters known as the SPLA [Sudan People's Liberation Army], have often been accused of abuse against civilians by human rights groups.
According to the UN, an estimated 2,400 people have been killed in rebel and tribal violence since independence.

"Creamy and Crunchy" named a "Best Book of the Year" by the Los Angeles Public Library
The discerning souls at the Los Angeles Public Library have chosen "Creamy and Crunchy" as one of its best books of the year for 2013! Thank you so much, guys!
The Big 3 (Big 2 1/2, really, given Peter Pan's declining fortunes in recent years)
Some of my favorite Indy peanut butters
Excerpt, Followed by Table of Contents
John Garwood, a young boy in Carroll, Nebraska, about this time, later recalled Roberts' Grocery there as "a mystic alchemy of smells – coffee, fresh bread, soap, spices, fruit, an oiled floor, grains and new leather. And then," he adds, "there was peanut butter. With a heavy spoon, Mr. Roberts would ladle a couple of pounds from the large wooden tub. It wasn't labeled chunky, super-chunky, regular, smooth, free of salt or sugar. There was just the sight and smell of the raw sin of all that peanut butter."
On one occasion at home, Garwood added, "My mother – anxious, I suspect, about our apple snatching in the high branches – called my friend and me down for a surprise. Inside a small box covered with a dish towel was punch, freshly baked bread and peanut butter. I noticed the misty look in my friend's eyes. As we finished and lay back on the grass, there was a peace that passes all understanding."
While peanut products were becoming increasingly popular, there were holdouts. One evening in 1921, well after midnight, Joseph Burstein of Brooklyn's Coney Island came home, woke his wife up and insisted she help him finish a bag of peanuts he'd bought on sale. As The Peanut Promoter noted, "she declined to share the succulent goobers." "This seemed to enrage him," Mrs. Burstein said, "and he emptied the bag in my face and forced me to swallow some of the nuts. He became abusive and finally ran out, only to return later, when he packed up his belongings and stayed away for three days." Mrs. Burstein filed for divorce.
Her aversion notwithstanding, peanut butter production took off in the first 20 years of the Twentieth Century. Two million pounds were produced in 1899; by 1907, that had grown to about 32 million pounds. In 1911, production declined to 23 million pounds, possibly because it was an El Nino year, with attendant drought and decreased agricultural production.
But when the U.S. entered World War I, the government encouraged Americans to eat more peanuts and less wheat, as grain was needed by our European allies and the American armed forces. An ad for Beech-Nut peanut butter called it "a new patriotic way to conserve animal fats." There were also practical considerations: Andrew F. Smith has noted, "As transportation space was limited by the war effort and unshelled nuts wasted valuable shipping space, demand grew for peanut products, such as peanut butter, that could be easily transported."
In 1914, 537,000 acres of peanuts were grown in the South; by 1918, that figure had risen to 4 million acres. In 1919, at the end of World War I, peanut butter production was 158 million pounds, nearly quintuple that of 1907. A 1919 article in The Peanut Promoter noted, "The consumption of peanut butter during the last three years more than equals that of all the previous years combined."
But that wasn't enough for some in the peanut butter industry. In 1923, ten years before he founded Skippy, Joseph Rosefield of Alameda, California was making Luncheon brand, an unstabilized peanut butter. "Peanut butter is only eaten by a small percentage of our population," he wrote in a peanut industry trade publication. "It should now be our effort to bring it to the attention of the general public so that it may, in time to come, be a common article of diet." Peanut butter had achieved a measure of popularity. But despite national brands on the market such as Beech-Nut and Heinz, it was a mostly local and regional phenomenon. It might have remained so if not for Rosefield and an obscure inventor from Pittsburgh...
CHAPTER ONE: Peanuts 101
Peanut butter consists mostly of ground-up peanuts. Everything you ever wanted to know about peanuts, including where they originated, how they got to the U.S., and their nutritional pluses and minuses.
CHAPTER TWO: The Social Rise of the Peanut
A look at the growing popularity of peanuts in the U.S. in the 19th Century up until the early 1890's, when modern peanut butter was invented.
CHAPTER THREE: The Birth of Peanut Butter
The early days of peanut butter from its "invention" in the American Midwest in the 1890's until World War I, before peanut butter was stabilized.
CHAPTER FOUR: Peter Pan: "Improved by Hydrogenation"
The birth of Peter Pan in the Roaring '20's, where it was first made by Chicago meatpacker Swift. It becomes one of the first major brands to be hydrogenated (although not the first, as is commonly assumed), using a patent developed by Joseph Rosefield. When Peter Pan tries to short Rosefield on royalty payments for his patent, though, he jumps ship and founds Skippy.
CHAPTER FIVE: How Peter Pan Lost Its Groove
What happens to a peanut butter when it's sold several times in rapid succession and then suffers from a salmonella contamination? It loses its market dominance and falls to third place.
CHAPTER SIX: "He Made His First Jar of Peanut Butter in his Garage"
The early days of Skippy peanut butter.
CHAPTER SEVEN: Skippy on Top
Skippy becomes the market leader and a national icon, with commercial spokespeople including Mouseketeer Annette Funicello and iconic American artist Norman Rockwell.
CHAPTER EIGHT: Jif: "But Is It Still Peanut Butter?"
Procter & Gamble launches Jif in 1958. It's almost 25 percent lard, triggering a 12-year battle between the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the peanut butter industry over a standard of identity for peanut butter.
CHAPTER NINE: "Choosy Mothers Choose…"
Jif climbs to the top of the peanut butter heap, thanks in part to the most famous slogan in peanut butter advertising. This chapter provides a behind-the-scenes look at how that campaign was created.
CHAPTER TEN: Peanut Butter Goes International
Although peanut butter is the all-American food, it's popular in some other countries, either because of American influence (Germany, Saudi Arabia)or their own indigenous traditions (Netherlands, Haiti). A look at which other countries like it and why.
CHAPTER ELEVEN: The Music of Peanut Butter
A brief critical survey of songs having to do with peanuts and peanut butter, including the Olympics' early-'60's doo-wop "Peanut Butter," Jimmy Buffett's "Peanut Butter Conspiracy (the title a probable hat-tip to the late-'60's folk-rock group of the same name) and obscure tracks like Don Byas' "Peanut Butter Blues."
CHAPTER TWELVE: Deaf Smith: What's Old-Fashioned is New Again
The story of Deaf Smith Peanut Butter, which hit the market in 1970, triggering a revival of old-fashioned peanut butter and introducing Valencia peanuts to peanut butter. Includes a look at Frank Ford, the unlikely pied piper of natural peanut butter, a crew-cut Republican activist, military veteran and member of Campus Crusade for Christ who drew hippies by the Volkswagen van-load to Deaf Smith County, Texas.
CHAPTER THIRTEEN: The Rise and Fall of the Florunner
Until the early 1970's, most commercial peanut butter was a blend of Spanish and Virginia peanuts. But an unusually prolific and tasty runner peanut developed at the University of Florida in 1969 changes the very nature of American peanut butter.
CHAPTER FOURTEEN: The Peanut Butter Crisis of 1980
As Don McLean would put it: the year the peanuts died. A severe drought across the South led to rationing by manufacturers and supermarkets, price spikes, hoarding by consumers, and massive importation of foreign peanuts. Chinese workers amused themselves by including dolls and even firecrackers with the peanuts, which their American counterparts had to carefully look for on the production lines.
CHAPTER FIFTEEN: "You Mean It's Not Good For Me?"
In the 1980's and '90', public health concerns about fat, trans fats, allergies, and aflatoxin (a carcinogenic mold) hammered peanut butter sales, leading the industry to counterattack with a combination of solid nutritional research and stepped-up public relations.
CHAPTER SIXTEEN: The Short, Happy Life of Sorrells Pickard
The best-laid peanut butter business plans sometimes go awry. In the late '90's, Sorrells Pickard, a delicious, Dove-Bar-smooth peanut butter, had everything: a charismatic front man (country-western star Sorrells Pickard), a capable, peanut-butter-loving executive (Hollywood film editor and entrepreneur Herb Dow), a good busines plan and solid financing. But owing to overly rapid expansion and the collapse of the dot-com bubble, Sorrells Pickard didn't make it. A loving look at the peanut butter that got away, along with an evocation of the landscape in Jackson County in the panhandle of Florida, where Sorrells Pickard's peanuts were grown.
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: Peanut Corporation of America: "There Was No Red Flag"
The notorious Peanut Corporation of America salmonella infestation of 2008-09. Unless you're an e. coli conservative, this chapter will make you realize the value of government regulation of the private sector.
CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: Peanut Butter Saves the World
Plumpy'nut and other therapeutic peanut pastes have an almost miraculous effect on Third-World starvation. Does Nutriset's Plumpy'nut patent keep more starving children from getting help, though, or is it simply doing a good job of keeping transnational giants such as PepsiCo out of the field?
CHAPTER NINETEEN: Where are the Peanut Butters of Yesteryear?
While there are more varieties and niche markets of peanut butter, there are fewer major companies making it, fewer shellers, and fewer peanut butter factories across the South. The book closes with reflections on the intrinsically American nature of peanut butter.

Entrepreneur Chrissy Azzaro has business down to a "T." Well, down to a T-shirt, actually. Azzaro, 28, is founder of My-Tee, a 4-year-old Los Angeles fashion company. Besides its signature product-the My-Tee T-shirt-the six-employee company makes its own line of skirts, shoes, tank tops and accessories that retail from $32 to $78. Publicists and buyers browse My-Tee's trendy showroom in Los Angeles for the latest trends and clothing lines. The company has built considerable buzz: Celebrities from Hilary Duff to Courteney Cox have been photographed in My-Tee clothing. This exposure helped the company rack up $1 million in sales in 2003.
Azzaro defines her brand as sassy clothing that's casual yet sexy. Branding, she says, has built her business. "It pushed us out of the pile of other people," Azzaro contends. "Instead of being underneath 100 T-shirt companies, it pushes you to the top. Branding is very important for any small business."
Or is it? Ask a group of entrepreneurs how much branding really matters, and you'll get different answers. Some think it's really important, while others don't. Each entrepreneur could have a slightly different definition of branding, and a few might not even know, or really care, what branding is. To brand or not to brand-that's the question. And everyone has an opinion.
"Of course people are going to say 'Well, branding doesn't really matter.' It's the most misunderstood concept in all of marketing," says Rob Frankel, a Los Angeles branding expert and author of The Revenge of Brand X: How to Build a Big Time Brand on the Web or Anywhere Else (Frankel & Anderson). "Too many [businesses] dismiss branding as just identity. But it's so much more than that."
Branding, say experts, is your raison d'être, the well-planned coordination of every single touch point with the customer to create consistency of service within your company. In the end, branding isn't about getting prospects to choose you over someone else, Frankel says; it's about getting them to see you as the only solution to their problem amid today's media clutter and price wars. Without it, you're dead in the water from Day One. The way to get new business today is by turning your current customers into evangelists. If you don't give them something to evangelize-like your brand message-they'll have no way to communicate it to the next guy, Frankel says. "Your brand strategy should be in your business plan."
Many companies are branding-whether or not they know it, says Bob Phibbs, a Long Beach, California, retail marketing and sales expert, and author of You Can Compete: Double Sales Without Discounting (Greenleaf Book Group). Are you going to be the Tiffany & Co. of small gift shops or the 99-cent bargain store? If you don't know, your customers will decide for you-and that's a risky move for a growing company. "Think about the kids you knew in high school, the dorks and the [popular kids]. We always categorize and want to get a bead on things," Phibbs says. "The most successful businesses are doing well because they have a consistent image of what their brand means. Branding always matters."

Tripp Lite's 32-pin SFF-8484 to 4 x 7-pin internal SAS cable (Serial Attached SCSI) cable is ideal for connecting SAS controllers to individual SAS/SATA disk drives. High-performance cable provides differential pair signaling with less than 5ps/m in pair skew, improved EMI protection, and 3.0Gbs data rate with rates up to 6.0Gbs. Thinner, flexible cable enables more efficient routing, with improved airflow and thermal mechanics. Configuration of storage devices is simplified. Tripp Lite SAS assemblies are RoHS compliant and feature a

Flawless Victory!
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: Bought this to connect my Perc 6 card to the 4 drive backplane in my Level 10 Series GTS case. Worked flawlessly. I was worried it'd be too short, but it was just the right size when I routed it through the holes/channel in the case.
Cons: They're not super cooled, super conducting ribbons that move the bits at 2.5x the speed of light?
Other Thoughts: Not a con for me, but I could see where someone may need 90 degree angled SATA connectors where space is really really tight. I don't, so it's a win for me!

Poor QC?
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: Works fine. Fairly easy to bundle and organize the cables.
Cons: A bit expensive, but I guess it's a bit of a niche item, and it's certainly an improvement over costly SCSI cables. I bought two of these. One of them looks like it had been passed through a woodchipper. The packaging it came in was undamaged so it appears to have left the factory in this condition, in such a way I doubt Newegg staff would have been able to notice. The damaged part only had one operable SATA connector, but was otherwise sound, no shorts or exposed wires.
Other Thoughts: I only needed to connect 5 devices at the time, so I didn't bother returning the damaged part to Newegg or the manufacturer (I'm sure one of them would have replaced it). Now that I want to grow the array, I'll have to order another cable. Oops.

It works
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: Plug and play
Cons: Have to power off machine... Why have they not made it so *everything* can be hot plugged, yet? =)
Did you find this review helpful?
Just work!
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: Works great with my PERC 5/i RAID card
Cons: None so far...maybe the finish can be a bit better, but who cares? It works great
Other Thoughts: Works right out-of-the-bag!

Wrong Cable
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: Does the Job and good quality
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: This product was purchased for my LSI SAS8703EM2 raid card. Only issue was with the information given by the person that sold me the card. I ended up with the wrong cable. This cable is reversed needed foward.
Did you find this review helpful?
Excellent but could be longer.
This review is from: Tripp Lite Model S502-20N 16" - 20" Internal SAS Cable
Pros: This is a very nice cable. I bought it to hook my Dell SAS 6/iR controllers up to my NORCO RPC-4220 4U Rackmount Server Chassis backplanes.
Cons: I would like it if there were a little longer. They were barely long enough for my application. Unfortunately longer cables are not presently available on NewEgg. But this isn't really the cables fault, and they did work.

Review of the 2005 Mercedes-Benz G-Class
Although extremely capable in the wild, its primitive nature on the street makes it more of a high-priced novelty than a true luxury SUV.
- Safety
Go-anywhere capability, powerful V8 engine, surprisingly quiet on the highway.
Heavy steering and accelerator pedal efforts, no side airbags, poor ergonomics, uncomfortable rear seat, not much cargo room.

A 3D and 2D mapping program is to start in this year's fourth quarter on the Tyra and Perlas blocks in the Caribbean offshore Nicaragua.
Infinity Energy Resources Inc., Overland Park, Kan., will shoot the seismic to help evaluate the combined 1.4 million acres of concessions. Infinity Energy said it retained Robert Fleming, a 38-year geosciences veteran, as a geophysical consultant to evaluate the seismic data once collected.
Infinity Energy also noted that a Noble Energy Inc. group is drilling the initial exploratory well on Noble's 1.8 million-acre concessions adjacent east of Tyra and Perlas. Noble spudded the well in late August and said it expected to announce results within about 90 days.
