Polycrystalline magnetite hollow spheres with diameter of about 200 nm and shell thickness of 30–60 nm were prepared via a facile solution route. For the reaction, ethylene glycol (EG) served as the reducing agent and soldium acetate played the role of precipitator. In addition, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) served as a surface stabilizer. The morphologies and structures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The intermediate products at different stages were also studied to shed light on the evolution of phase formation. It revealed that the hollow structure formed via self-assembly of nanocrystallites (about 15 nm) using sodium acetate as mild precipitator. Evidences further pointed out that the Ostwald ripening process well explained the growth mechanism of the hollow structure. Magnetization measurements showed that the coercivity of magnetite hollow spheres at low temperature is about 200 Oe and the saturation magnetization is about 83 emu g−1, roughly 85% that of the bulk phase, close to the value of its solid counterpart. In addition, a freezing transition was observed at 25 K.
KeywordsMagnetite hollow spheresPhase formationMagnetic property
As a useful functional material, magnetite (Fe3O4) has wide application potentials in diverse areas such as ferrofluid (Raj et al. 1995; Butter et al. 2002; Hong et al. 2006), magnetic data storage materials (Zeng et al. 2002), devices (Dadarlat et al. 2008; Ge et al. 2008; Zhang et al. 2008) and environment protection materials (Oliveira et al. 2004). Moreover, due to its excellent biocompatibility, magnetite is also an ideal candidate for biomedical applications (Doyle et al. 2002; Hung et al. 2007; Zhang et al. 2009).
In the past few years, motivated by the belief that novel properties of nanomaterials can be gained by rationally tuning their size, shape, as well as the way they are fabricated (Puntes et al. 2001; Sun and Xia 2002; Wang et al. 2005; Franger et al. 2007; Guo et al. 2007; Wang et al. 2007), magnetite nanostructures such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and other novel nanostructures have been synthesized via various approaches (Ling et al. 2004; Zhong et al. 2006; Kovalenko et al. 2007; Aldea et al. 2009; Zhang and Zhang 2009). In particular, nano-sized hollow magnetite has attracted great interest because of its properties such as low density, selective permeability, and large specific area, etc. (Li et al. 2006; Cong et al. 2008; Deng et al. 2008; Huang et al. 2009). However, among all these previous works, expensive complex polymers, toxic chemical reagents, or sacrificial templates were needed to obtain magnetite hollow nanostructures. Besides, these methods still face shortcomings including low productivity and rigorous reaction conditions. Developing simple and efficient route to synthesize magnetite hollow structures remains as a challenge in wet chemical synthesis.
Hence, in this work, a facile solvothermal method was developed to synthesize submicron-sized magnetite hollow spheres. The novelty of this work could be characterized by its convenience and environmental friendliness. Besides, the phase formation mechanism was investigated. It was found that the presence of sodium acetate was crucial to the formation of pure magnetite phase and its concentration was important to the morphology evolutions from solid spheres to their hollow counterparts or to the self-assembly chains of solid particles.
The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the as-prepared products were recorded on an analytical X'Pert Pro MPD X-ray diffractometer equipped with Cu-Kα radiation (λ = 0.15409 nm). The morphologies and structures were characterized by a Hitachi S-4800 scanning electron microscope (SEM) with a cold field emission gun and by a JEOL JEM-2100F transmission electron microscope (TEM) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) operated at 200 kV. The specimens for the SEM studies were prepared by dispersing the powder samples on the silicon substrates, while that for TEM and HRTEM investigations were obtained by dispersing of the as-prepared products in ethanol solution and then drops of the suspension were placed on copper grids and dried in air. Magnetic properties of the powder sample, ~5.06 mg, were measured by a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer (Quantum Design).
Formation of magnetite hollow spheres
To understand the phase formation of magnetite and the mechanism for the morphology evolution from solid particles to hollow spheres, experiments of time evolutions were carried out by the addition of low concentration of NaAc (0.24 M), which is 16.8 mmol in 70 mL of the "initial solution in procedure 2 of the synthesis process illustrated in Fig. 1. Furthermore, reactions without NaAc and with high concentration of NaAc (0.72 M), about 50.4 mmol in 70 mL of the "initial solution", were also conducted as controlled experiments to clarify the phase formation mechanism of magnetite hollow spheres.
EG serving as a reducing agent is well discussed in the polyol process (Sun and Xia 2002; Zhong et al. 2006; Wang et al. 2008a, b). The ferrous ion might be the result of the reducing reaction between ferric iron and EG. To confirm the reducing property of EG in our experiment, we substituted of EG with water as solution and only Fe2O3 was obtained as final products.
Discussions on growth mechanism
By the studies presented above, the addition of low concentration of NaAc (0.24 M) is the key to produce the hollow spheres of magnetite. It is noticeable that the diameter of solid particles increases sequentially from about 50 nm (Fig. 4b) to 100–120 nm (Fig. 4c), and eventually reaches 200 nm as diameter of hollow spheres (Fig. 3) as prolonging reaction time from 5, 8 to 16 h with reaction temperature of 200 °C. Due to the sintering of several solid spheres with increase in the time of the reaction, solid aggregation spheres with diameter about 120 nm formed with sintering of several smaller solid spheres (i.e. 50 nm). In addition, for the hollow spheres, the size of nanocrystallites decreases inwardly from outer surface, i.e., from over 15 nm on the outer surface down to about 10 nm in the interior (shown in Fig. 3b). Furthermore, the large nanocrystallites (~15 nm) is packed more densely on the surface than those in the interior (~10 nm), as shown in Fig. 3b. From the energy point of view, it evidences a larger surface cohesive energy, which in turn favors the dissolution of the inner small nanocrystallites. The above discussions suggest that an inside-out mass transportation occurs and that the large nanocrystallites on the outer surface grow at the expense of the smaller one inside. This phenomena was similar to inside-out Ostwald ripening which was first described by Ostwald in 1896 (Ostwald 1900) concerning the growth of large precipitates at the expense of smaller precipitates. Besides, similar phenomena were also observed in other hollow structures of a wide range of materials obtained via the Ostwald ripening (Lou et al. 2006; Teo et al. 2006; Ottaviano et al. 2009).
Based on the experiment results and discussions above, we believe that the formation of the magnetite hollow spheres experienced a two-step process. First is the sintering process, which could be observed as the diameter increase of the spheres as shown in Fig. 4b and c with reaction time increase from 5 to 8 h. During this process, the sintering process is the main reason for the diameter increase from 50 to 120 nm. Second, with reaction time prolonging to 16 h, the magnetite hollow structure with larger nanoparticles on surface and smaller ones inside appeared which can attributed to the inside-out Ostwald ripening. Thus, the main reason for the formation of magnetite hollow spheres was the inside-out Ostwald ripening.
On the contrary, high concentration of NaAc (0.72) led to the formation of magnetite solid spheres without obvious size increase or hollow structure emerges which means the formation mechanism of magnetite hollow spheres and well-crystallized solid particles were different according to the concentration of NaAc.
Magnetic properties
Polycrystalline Fe3O4 hollow spheres were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method. PVP was added as a surface stabilizer and both of EG and sodium acetate (NaAc) were essential for the formation of the magnetite hollow spheres. To be specific, EG was reducing agent, and NaAc played the role of precipitator controlling the release rate of OH− which is necessary for the formation of the hollow structure. The growth mechanism of the magnetite hollow spheres was suggested by the Ostwald ripening effect, which was verified by the time evolution experiments. Magnetization measurements show that the saturation magnetization, Ms = 82.8 emu g−1 at 5 K is about 85% of the bulk value and the coercivity is 200 Oe. From this point of view, the magnetite hollow spheres are promising for a potential application as carriers for drug targeting.

Cause of Death:
Train-Pedestrian Accident
Melbourne, Australia

THE brother of a teen actress killed by a train says his family was devastated when a rail official falsely said her death wasn''''t accidental.
Jessie Jacobs, 17, the Melbourne star of the Saddle Club, died on Sunday.
She was killed when she stumbled off a platform at Cheltenham station and into the path of an on-coming train. She was on the way to buy a present for her brother Adam.
Adam, 24, today paid tribute to his ''''''''hero'''''''', his ''''''''beautiful'''''''' younger sister.
''''''''If I had to describe her in one word it would be ''''over-achiever'''','''''''' Adam said.
''''''''Everything she did was so good. She was very grounded and likeable, very mellow and did not let anything get to her head, despite the fact she had been in these shows and was recognised a bit.''''''''
Suicide suggestion
However, he was furious with an apparent suggestion by a station attendant that the tragic death was not an accident.
He said the family had been distressed by a Connex station worker who had told people, including them, Jessica''''s death was not an accident, the Herald Sun reported.
But Victoria Police investigators have told the family Jessica stumbled as she walked along the platform.
Mr Jacobs said his stepfather and mother visited the station to view a makeshift shrine to Jessica when a woman working at the station told them it was not an accident.
''''''''My stepfather had asked what had happened,'''''''' he said.
''''''''This lady said she could say it was not an accident. When he asked her if she was pushed, she said ''''''''no''''''''.
''''''''It was ''''''''no'''''''', indicating she had done this to herself.
''''''''My mum overheard all of this. She is so traumatised by it. It''''s unacceptable.''''''''
''''''''She is obviously an idiot to tell people this, because not only is it erroneous, it''''s incredibly hurtful.
''''''''My mum wants an apology. Where is their corporate conscience?''''''''
Connex investigation
He said Connex had not spoken to the family since the accident.
Connex spokesman John Rees told the Herald Sun the company would launch an investigation into the family''''s allegation.
''''''''We appreciate this is a terrible time for the family,'''''''' he said.
''''''''We want to find out what the situation was before we take any disciplinary action.
''''''''We will talk to the staff at the station to find out what has happened.''''''''
Police took several hours to find the family because the teenager, who was arriving home from an overnight stay with a friend, was carrying fake ID.
Jessica, known as Jessie to her friends, was well known in the world of children''''s television, starring in Saddle Club, Worst Best Friends, Fergus McPhail and Holly''''s Heroes.
She also appeared in live productions, including the Sound of Music with Bert Newton and Lisa McCune.
Typical teen
In his eulogy, Adam plans to speak about how protective he was of his little sister, who was far more like him than either of them realised.
''''''''Only recently did I find out that Jess smuggled vodka into her Year Nine camp. I did that too.''''''''
He said that while she got up to ''''''''shenanigans'''''''' like any teenager, they were few and far between and she was a good sister, an outstanding daughter and an amazing friend.
The death comes after another person involved in the Saddle Club series, Canadian rock musician Carl Dixon, was critically injured in a car accident.
Dixon was recording an album for the series, in which his daughter Lauren is also a star.
He remains in hospital, but has posted a letter to fans on his website, saying while his extensive injuries are a challenge, he is upbeat about the situation.
Apart from her older brother, Adam, Jessica also had two younger brothers, Seth aged 14 and Charlie, two.
Jessica will be farewelled by more than 400 people in Brighton tomorrow and a police-led cortege will lead a horse drawm carriage carrying Jesse''''s body from Holy Trinity Church in St Kilda to St Kilda Cemetery.
A report on her death will be carried out by the coroner.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, November 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Announcement at book release of Revolution Justified
Today climate proceedings against the Dutch state have been announced, claiming that the Netherlands is under a legal obligation to reduce its CO2 emissions by as much as 40% by 2020 and up to 95% by 2050. A Dutch "climate-book" provided the impetus for these proceedings. The book, which essentially calls for similar climate proceedings against all Western states due to their lack of action, was embraced by the influential Dutch Urgenda Foundation, the petitioner in the first climate suit following the book's blueprint.
Now available in an English translation under the title Revolution Justified, this book is ready to make a global impact. Backed by world-renowned American climate scientist James Hansen, author and Dutch attorney Roger H.J. Cox thinks reaching a wider audience with the English translation is important: "Multiple climate cases throughout Europe and in other Western countries will speed up the process toward an energy revolution that is demanded by citizens. This is why we worked hard to make the translation available as soon as possible, so potential petitioners in other countries can use it as a working document for their climate suits." Cox - already dubbed "the climate-lawyer" - prefers not to be labeled an activist, though he readily admits to helping Dutch businesses "go green" for several years now and was recently voted one of the top influencers in sustainable building in the Netherlands.
James Hansen was the first person to receive a copy of the English translation today, during the book's launch in The Hague. Hansen, actively involved in several climate proceedings in the United States himself, expressed his wholehearted endorsement of Revolution Justified. "In the climate and energy debate we need more pressure and involvement from the public, willing to defend our rights and those of our children and grandchildren using all the means of our laws to achieve justice", said Hansen, whose foreword gives further weight to this book's message, as do the forewords contributed by Dutch astronaut Wubbo Ockels and celebrated American architect of the "Cradle to Cradle" concept, William McDonough.
Provocatively subtitled Why only the law can save us now, this book makes for an undeniably gripping read. It describes the huge societal challenges of oil decline, climate change and the failure of democracy. The work argues that without legal intervention these challenges will put Western nations at risk of committing domestic human rights violations on a scale nobody had thought to ever see again after World War II. Meticulously substantiated with a wide array of international scientific, journalistic, legal and even military sources, the text draws readers into a tightening stranglehold that eases only in the final section. Here, the reader learns how the judiciary may yet rescue the climate and break through the status quo in the energy world to prevent the literal downfall of Western society.
Revolution Justified: Why only the law can save us now is a compelling work of non-fiction, written for a wide readership and available for worldwide distribution as from November 14, 2012 at http://www.revolutionjustified.org. This 328-page book will especially appeal to those involved in greening our economy.
Press invitation and information:
Press kit and review copy can be requested from the publisher's office at [email protected]. For more information on the book and the author see http://www.revolutionjustified.org.
More information and specifics on the Dutch climate suit will be communicated directly by petitioner Urgenda via press releases and via http://www.urgenda.nl and via http://www.revolutionjustified.org as of November 14, 2012.
Members of the press are cordially invited to attend the book launch and the announcement of the Dutch climate suit, which will take place on November 14, 2012, from 10 a.m. until 12 noon at the Nieuwspoort international press centre in The Hague, in the political heart of the Netherlands.
The first copy of the book will be presented to Dr. James E. Hansen at this event, which will include presentations by Dr. Hansen, the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute and several academic experts on climate change and sustainable development. Concluding the presentations will be Marjan Minnesma, director of the Urgenda Foundation, who will be announcing legal proceedings against the Dutch state. Several related events (college tour, public interviews) with Mr. Hansen and others, will take place on November 14 - 16.

Here in TX for several weeks on business, tried this place. Very good decor and service and nice variety on the menu.

Great patio, decent food but I was really surprised at how bad the service was. Our server was the bartender who was obviously more interested in the other female server who was wooing her! I'm not against true love except when it interferes with my dinner. I actually think this might be an "alternative" lifestyle place to hang out. They... 更多

This chapter of the Left Behind series elaborated furrther on the Bible's book of Revelation giving further explanation into a more understandable format.
Truly a powerful book and I can't wait to read Nicolae! I've already ordered the next 3 books in the series (don't want to wait).
I have many people waiting to read the books after me based on other independent reviews.
I would fully recommend anyone whether Christian or non-Christian to read these!!
The series is a great addition to Christian fiction. Interesting to see how the authors bring out the Bible throughout.

21 September 2006 | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »
Between Jackass Number Two and Jet Li's Fearless this weekend, young males are again the primary target of the domestic boxoffice. The question is, can they possibly support both films plus last week's holdover, Sony Pictures' Gridiron Gang? Add on the fact that Flyboys is targeting older males and All the King's Men is out to reach adults, and one must wonder what teenage girls will be doing this weekend because there sure isn't a new movie out there for them. Jackass, from Paramount Pictures, is the sure winner of the weekend. Johnny Knoxville and his gang of knuckleheads will stun audiences again with their stupid human tricks. The R-rated film is set to bow in 3,059 theaters, but whether it will reach the $22.7 million opening number of Jackass: The Movie in 2002 remains to be seen. Industry insiders are placing the gross in a range similar to the original, though with the boxoffice down the past two weekends, underperforming is a possibility. Directed by Jeff Tremaine, who helmed the original, Jackass reunites Knoxville with cohorts Bam Margera, Chris Pontius and Steve-O, among others.

It will soon be that time of year again, and if you're heading to New York this Christmas you won't be able to escape the holiday spirit. And why would you want to? This city does it better than anywhere else on earth…
Lighting the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree
The annual Rockefeller tree-lighting ceremony has been a holiday tradition for decades, starting from humble roots during the Great Depression when it was launched as an effort to cheer the nation during hard times. Nowadays it's a country-wide televised event, but it's far better to witness it in person. This year the lighting will take place on 28 November at Rockefeller Plaza, between West 51st and West 48th Streets, and Fifth and Sixth Avenues.
Also at Rockefeller is the famous seasonal ice-skating rink, which has become a quintessential winter New York experience, set against the towering backdrop of the Rockefeller Center's glittering lights and Christmas tree. The rink is now open and will remain so until April 2013. The famous Wollman Rink in Central Park opens on 22 October 2012.
The Rockettes at the Radio City Music Hall
If it's the run-up to Christmas, it means The Rockettes are in town. Radio City Music Hall's Christmas Spectacular returns for its 85th anniversary run, with this year's show featuring old favourites, re-imagined numbers and amazing special effects. There will also be a brand new, interactive exhibit at the Radio City Music Hall to celebrate the past, present and future of the Rockettes. Check out our feature from last year to learn more about the history of the show and the exacting nature of the precision dance routines. Runs from 9 November until 30 December.
The Holiday Train Show
One of New York's most beloved Christmas traditions, the family-friendly Holiday Train Show takes place every year at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx. The show features model trains that ride through more than 100 intricate replicas of New York City landmarks, including the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge and Yankee Stadium, all made from natural plant parts like bark, nuts and leaves. If you happen to be in town on opening day – 17 November – you can join in carols with the Westchester Chordsmen and watch the lighting of a spectacular conifer display.
Other events running alongside include Gingerbread Adventures – where kids get the opportunity to enter a child-size gingerbread playhouse and decorate their own gingersnap cookie – and The Little Engine That Could Puppet Show, featuring the talents of New York City's puppet master Ralph Lee. The Holiday Train Show runs 17 November until 13 January.
The Christmas Lights of Dyker Heights
Dyker Heights is a mostly Italian-American neighbourhood in southwest Brooklyn famed for its wildly extravagant and over-the-top displays of Christmas tree lights every season. The twinkling spectacle attracts big crowds of visitors every night during the holiday season, with the best displays found along the blocks between 83rd and 86th Streets from 11th to 13th Avenue.
Other than taking the subway and then traversing the area on foot (you'll need to walk approximately one mile from the D train subway stops at 79th Street or 18th Ave to reach the main stretch) the most enjoyable way to explore is to take the Slice of Brooklyn's Christmas Lights and Cannoli Tour, which is a three and a half hour guided bus tour of the neighbourhood leaving from Manhattan. The trip includes a visit to an authentic Brooklyn pastry shop for proper Italian cannoli and hot chocolate. Departs every night at 7pm from 30 November to 31 December.
The Nutcracker presented by the New York City Ballet
George Balanchine's The Nutcracker is one of the city's favourite annual productions. Featuring every single member of the Company plus students from the School of American Ballet, the performance features 150 costumes (including a cape from the original 1954 production) with 57 people working backstage to co-ordinate the costume changes, lighting and scenery.
The amount of detail is staggering. A one-tonne Christmas tree grows from a height of 12 feet to 40 feet during the show, while a continuous sprinkling of crystalline snowflakes fall overhead (conserved for re-use after each performance). On each of the Candy Cane costumes are 144 jingle bells, the Sugarplum Fairy's tutu is made from seven layers of tulle, and the gargantuan gown of Mother Ginger is lowered by pulley over the dancer's head.
Where to stay
We've recently written about a couple of New York's historic hotels, but if you're looking for a modern well-located alternative in the heart of Manhattan, then check out the five different options offered by DoubleTree by Hilton, who have three properties in Midtown, one in Chelsea, and one in the Financial District.
Our favourite is the DoubleTree by Hilton Metropolitan New York City which has just undergone an extensive $25 million refurbishment. The hotel, located on the corner of 51st Street and Lexington Avenue on the east side of Midtown, is an original design by the maverick of American hotel resort architecture Morris Lapidus, whose striking 1962 building was configured in a gentle "Z" shape to increase natural daylight in the rooms.
The well-executed transformation harks back to Lapidus' mid-century heyday and we like how the new geometric guestroom interiors are full of subtle references to his legacy. The spacious rooms are warmly decorated with plenty of natural light, supremely comfortable beds and an ample working desk with ergonomic chair. The best views are those looking down on the streetlife of Lexington Avenue, and some rooms have wraparound balconies. Just off the lobby the Met Lounge is a buzzy, comfortable place to chill after a day of heavy sightseeing. The hotel is right next door to the 51 Street subway stop and only five minutes from Fifth Avenue and the Rockefeller Center. Oh, and did we mention the freshly-baked chocolate chip cookie on arrival? Yum.
DoubleTree by Hilton are part of Hilton Worldwide, so if you're a Virgin Atlantic Flying Club member (and if you're not, here's all you need to know) you can earn miles with any stay. Here's how.
Virgin Atlantic operate daily direct flights to New York from London Heathrow.

I zoomed in on this recipe rather quickly after the cookbook for the UK portion of the ZWT 6 was posted. Yellow/white fleshed grapefruit replaced pink and really there isn't anything better in this world on shortbread but a slather of this luscious curd. Easy directions, too. Curd took close to one half hour to thicken on our gas range. fyi Reviewed for ZWT 6.

My Name is Nobody: 40th Anniversary Edition (US - BD RA)
Image Entertainment announces the Blu-ray release of Tonino Valerii's classic...
Starring: Henry Fonda
Released: 5th November 2013
Further Details:
Producer Sergio Leone's 'last word' on the spaghetti western genre,
My Name is Nobodyis finally coming to Blu-ray from Image Entertainment. There are no extras or aspect ratio specs listed in the press release, but this new disc will reportedly feature a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mono soundtrack. Here is the cover art:
Note: The press release I received marks the runtime as 115 minutes. This is more than the original 111 minute US cut, but not as long as the 117 minute international cut. I don't know if this is accurate or not.
Quote: From western legend Sergio Leone (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) comes a rollicking shoot-`em-up! Young, ambitious gunman Nobody (They Call Me Trinity's Terence Hill) sets his eye on his idol, gunslinger Jack Beauregard (Once Upon a Time in the West's Henry Fonda), who's intent on sailing off into retirement. Deciding his hero should go out with guns blazing, Nobody sets him up for a showdown with a pack of the deadliest bad guys in the West, triggering an unforgettable finale that's become an action comedy legend!

Twenty years ago, a pizza operator could take a chart of the cheese market and overlay year after year in order to predict the cost for the next few months. Fast forward to cheese trades at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) plus an expansion to a world dairy market and predictions are a difficult science.
In the past, Americans consumed all of the cheese produced domestically. The world had no interest in our product and cheese producers had a ready local market so they never looked beyond our borders. With the rise of dairy as a food source in Asia, the world now comes to the U.S. dairy industry for our output. As incomes rise in China, milk and cheese use has increased. It will take decades for China to produce enough dairy to satisfy its domestic needs. Traditional, New Zealand & Australia filled the gap. Persistent drought in that region (combined the fourth largest milk shed in the world) forces Asian buyers to seek U.S. producers.
The top 5 milk processing countries in 2011 were: 1. USA, 2. Germany, 3. China, 4. France and 5. India. In addition, the U.S. has an extensive and sophisticated dairy industry that is highly efficient at producing and processing dairy at the lowest cost in the world.
Cow Milk Production by Country -2012(Production volume in million metric tons)
United States: 90.00
India: 55.00
China: 32.10
Russia: 31.90
Brazil: 31.30
New Zealand:19.10
Argentina: 12.40
Mexico: 11.00
Ukraine: 10.50
Australia: 9.70
Canada: 8.40
Japan: 7.50
The volatility of the CME has resulted in huge fluctuations of cheese prices. In the past three years, the pizza industry has seen a CME high of $2.20 and a low of $1.10 — the floor that the U.S. government puts under the market. The biggest cheese users among us are price takers, meaning they have to buy at whatever cost the market issues. Very large buyers can "hedge" by buying Class III milk futures but that only reduces the pain, it does not eliminate it. Mozzarella is a fresh cheese that must be consumed within 60 days or the performance characteristics change, it will not melt and stretch properly.
Why bring all this up?
Most pizza operators recall the "old days" of the simple prediction of cheese costs. As a result, many pizza operators "believe" that cheese prices are temporarily crazy and will settle down "soon." This is not true. The world has found the U.S. industry and American dairy producers, like any other business, will sell to the highest bidder. The years of low stable cheese cost are over. Pizza operators need to accept this reality and price their pizza to account for permanently higher costs. If market forces create some temporary low price, promote, promote, promote, but now is an era to raise quality, improve service and raise prices.
