There really was a Clarence Birdseye (1886-1956).If he hadn't visited the Arctic, there may never have been frozen TV dinners. Now he is recognized as amajor innovator in the food industry.
As a young scientist working in the frozen North, it didn't surprise Birdseye to note that freshly caught fish, when placed on the Arctic ice and exposed to the wind, immediately froze solid. What did surprise Birds-eye was that the fish, if thawed and eaten much later, retained all of its fresh characteristics. This discovery was to create a new food industry and make Birdseye a millionaire. The youthful Birdseye had the courage to thaw out the rock hard fish weeks later and cook them for dinner, as an experiment. At the time, this was a real risk. He could have become very ill by eating "rotten" fish; but he didn't. Instead, the young naturalist found that the fish tasted almost the same as if they had been fresh, and with the same texture.
Clarence Birdseye was born in Brooklyn, New York on December 9, 1886. He attended Amherst College, with the intention of becoming a biologist. But he didn't graduate. Instead, he went to work for the U.S. Biological Survey as a field naturalist. His supervisors sent him to the Arctic to do research on the ways of the native Americans who lived there, and even to trade some furs.
The combination of ice, wind, and low temperatures in the Arctic froze anything left exposed almost instantly. Birdseye soon realized that such quick freezing of certain foods kept large crystals from forming. Slow freezing attempts had resulted in the formation of large crystals, transforming the food so that it could never be eaten. But if the freezing was accomplished quickly enough, there was no damage to the cellular structure of the food.
As a young scientist, Birdseye was making notes on his fascinating discovery. He also realized that he had the germ of a new business that could be very profitable. Throughout his life, Birdseye was a skilled businessman. He did more than create the modern frozen food industry. He also obtained almost 300 patents for various inventions, many of them in the fields of incandescent lighting, wood pulping, and infrared heating.
Birdseye knew that he had discovered something very important, but he wasn't certain what. All he knew for sure was that he had the beginnings of what could be a very profitable business. A careful man, he continued to work in various federal departments from 1917 to 1925, while perfecting his freezing methods. All the time he knew that the public would clamor to pay for all the various types of foods they could enjoy if they didn't have to be obtained fresh. He knew that frozen foods would be in demand if he could figure out exactly how to accomplish the freezing.
In September 1922, while still employed by the government, Birdseye returned to New York City and formed his own company, Birdseye Seafoods, Inc. The company was far from an immediate success, as Birdseye continued his experiments with fish filets. He would freeze them, then thaw them, at his plant headquarters near the Fulton Fish Market in New York. He didn't have to eat every experiment because he already knew that the food would be safe to eat. He was trying to perfect a way to ensure the flavor and texture of the food.
At last Birdseye discovered the secret to safely freezing food. After two years of experimentation, he tried wax-packing dressed fish and other foods in cartons then freezing them between two flat, refrigerated surfaces under pressure. The "double plate" freezer was the solution. This technique quickly froze the foods solid with almost no damage at all to their cellular structure. Foods packaged and frozen in this new way were almost exactly the same when thawed weeks or months later. Birdseye quickly applied for, and was granted, a patent on the exclusive method.
Birdseye knew he had found the answer to safely preserving foods for an indefinite time, an answer that could make him a fortune. With this new technique safely patented, he decided to form another company. On July 3, 1924, he formed the General Seafood Corporation with some rich partners who believed in his process.
General Seafood was the beginning of a food industry that has since become massive. A look in the refrigerated section of any local grocery store will reveal a stunning variety of delicious frozen foods. There will be many types of fish, the food item that started it all, and dozens of meat and poultry foods as well as French fried potatoes, milkshakes, and complete breakfasts and dinners. There are even pizza combinations and other specialty frozen foods waiting for consumers. Recently, chain hamburger and hot dog companies began supplying their products in frozen form to supermarkets. This huge industry began with the discoveries of Clarence Birdseye.
Birdseye was a hard worker who was always thinking of new ideas. Even as he was perfecting his freezing techniques, he was also working on other food items. In the late 1930s, he perfected and patented a new food dehydrating process. However, he was so busy with his frozen food ideas that he didn't begin marketing the dehydrating idea until 1946.
Company success didn't happen overnight. The first retail sale of frozen foods occurred on March 6, 1930, in Springfield, Massachusetts. Birdseye called it the "Springfield Experiment Test Market." In his frozen food cases he included 26 different types of fish, meat, fruit, and vegetables. He posted a number of rather questionable signs on the frozen food display with words like "50 Below Zero," but people bought the new items. They loved the idea that they could take home, thaw, and eat foods that were otherwise not available to them at a reasonable price.
Premature thawing continued, however, to be a problem. Birdseye contacted the American Radiator Corporation. This company agreed to manufacture low-temperature retail display units that would hold the frozen food in markets. Markets agreed to display only Birds Eye products. In return, they were able to lease the units for about eight dollars per month. The new units would keep the foods solidly frozen until customers bought them.
Always on the lookout for ways to expand his business, Birdseye began to lease insulated railroad cars in 1944. These cars were specially designed for the nationwide shipment of his frozen food products. This final move assured the success of Birdseye's company.
By the 1950s, frozen food sales exceeded one billion dollars every year. About 64 percent of all retail food markets had frozen food areas. Pre-cooked foods or prepared frozen foods began to account for a majority of the sales. There were even "boil-in" bags of frozen food items, derived from Birdseye's original experiments. The Association of Food and Drug Officials in the United States adopted a standard for the handling of frozen foods, to insure that foods were not allowed to thaw between manufacture and consumption. By then, most airlines were using frozen foods that could be prepared as needed on airliners.
Today, Birds Eye, Inc. targets the growing wave of health-conscious consumers. They were the first to introduce "Custom Cuisine," a line of six varieties of vegetables and sauces to which meat is then added. They also introduced foil wrapping on boxed vegetables, which holds moisture ten times better than waxed paper. The Food and Drug Administration has acknowledged that frozen foods, when correctly handled and cooked, are as healthy as the same foods would be if cooked fresh. Birdseye had come to the same conclusion decades before. There are now children's frozen foods, "family size" portions, appetizers, meal kits, and snacks. The fast-paced lifestyles of modern consumers have encouraged the continued growth of the frozen food industry.
The process invented by Birdseye is still in widespread use. It preserves not only the flavor and texture of the foods, but also their nutritional value. Clarence Birdseye indirectly improved the health of almost everyone in the industrialized world by providing fresh food in a convenient way. Before his death in Springfield, Massachusetts, on October 8, 1956, at the age of 70, Birdseye realized that his discovery on the cold tundra of the Arctic had grown into a highly successful business.

BIRDSEYE, CLARENCE. Clarence "Bob" Birdseye (1886–1956), American businessman and inventor, was originally an Amherst biology major, but dropped out and became a U.S. field naturalist in Labrador in 1920. There he became impressed with the well-preserved cellular structure of cooked fish that was frozen naturally in the Arctic outdoors. He noted that this quick freezing process caused less crystallization within the fish tissue. Once he returned to the United States, Birdseye developed his crude Multiplate Quick Freeze Machine: tightly sealed cartons, encased in metal, that were filled with food and then lowered into a low-temperature brine solution that froze the foods. Later, he froze foods with calcium chloride brine chilled to 40°F. In 1924 he organized the General Seafood Corporation and turned his attention to developing refrigerated railroad boxcars to transport frozen foods nationwide. In 1929 Birdseye sold his company to Postum, Inc., which became General Foods Corporation. His line of frozen foods was renamed Birds Eye.™ Ultimately, in 1949, using the anhydrous freezing process, Birdseye managed to cut freezing time from 18 hours to 90 minutes.
Though his process was not the first to freeze foods, distinction came to him for the quickness of his method for producing tasty, well-preserved fresh fish, fruits, and vegetables in retail-sized containers. The restaurant business profited greatly from his work. Birdseye held three hundred patents, in addition to a patent for a process of converting crushed sugarcane residue into paper pulp.

Birdseye's process indirectly improved the diet of the industrialized world by making possible the freshest frozen foods, frozen at or near farm sites, year round. This later led to the packaging of ethnic foods and meal combinations such as TV dinners. One of his most popular frozen products is green peas, the second largest vegetable crop in the United States. In the early twenty-first century more than 90 percent of all peas are sold as frozen peas. Frozen peas retain their brightest color and original shapes when placed in boiling water and removed from the heat.

Clarence Birdseye, 1886–1956, American inventor and founder of the frozen food industry, b. Brooklyn, N.Y., studied at Amherst College. From 1910 he worked as a naturalist, and in 1912 he went to Labrador on a fur-trading expedition. After he returned to the United States in 1916, he began experimenting with freezing foods, aiming at commercial application. He developed a method for freezing fish and in 1924 he was one of the founders of the General Seafood Company, which began manufacturing various fast-frozen food products. In 1929 the company was bought by the Postum Company (later the General Foods Corp.) for $22 million. By 1949, Birdseye had perfected the anhydrous freezing process, reducing the time needed for the operation from 18 hr to 11/2 hr. A prolific inventor, he held more than 200 patents.

Birdseye, Clarence (1886–1956) US industrialist and inventor, who developed a technique for deep-freezing foods. He experimented on freezing food in 1917, and sold frozen fish in 1924. He was a founder of General Foods Corporation, and found new ways of reducing the time to freeze foods.
"Birdseye, Clarence." World Encyclopedia. . Encyclopedia.com. 7 Apr. 2019 <https://www.encyclopedia.com>.
Billionaire scientist and inventor Clarence Birdseye was not the first person to preserve fresh food by freezing it for later consumption; in the early seventeenth century, English philosopher–statesman Francis Bacon had experimented with stuffing chickens with snow. As early as 1908, West Coast growers routinely froze their fruits, using what was known as a "cold–pack" process (freezing drums of sugared fruit and berries in an ice–salt mixture), to preserve them for storing and shipping (mostly by rail) to distant markets. During the same period, East Coast users of the cold–pack process included ice cream manufacturers and "New York dressed" (cold storage) chicken and fish wholesalers.
Yet it is Birdseye who is considered the father of frozen foods, and his Birds Eye Frosted Foods Company—along with the discovery of household refrigeration—changed the world's food industry forever. Birdseye's personal contributions to the industry were two–fold. First, he perfected a rapid method for freezing foods that preserved their cellular structure and composition, thus retaining their freshness, taste, and vitamin content. Second, he was the first to package frozen foods to be sold directly to the end–user, or consumer market.
Birdseye was born in Brooklyn, New York, the son of Clarence Frank Birdseye, lawyer and legal scholar, and Ada Underwood. As a young boy, Birdseye already had developed a keen interest in natural history. At the age of five, Birdseye gave his mother a mouse skin that he had dressed. Before he reached his teens, his proficiency in taxidermy led him to insert an advertisement in a sporting magazine offering instruction in the art, under the auspices of the American School of Taxidermy. At Montclair, New Jersey, where he attended high school, his other enduring interest, food preparation, came to light when he enrolled in the cooking class.
Following a family tradition, Birdseye entered Amherst College with the class of 1910 (majoring in biology), but financial difficulties adversely affected his attendance, and he did not graduate. Nonetheless, during his tenure there, his imaginative schemes for meeting college expenses included the sale of frogs to the Bronx Zoo for snake food and the live trapping of 135 specimens of the comparatively rare black rat for a Columbia University professor's breeding experiments.
From 1910 to 1912, Birdseye was a field naturalist for the Biological Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, work that led to his publication of a short monograph entitled "Some Common Mammals of Western Montana in Relation to Agriculture and Spotted Fever" (1912). A successful venture in marketing western furs during this period took him in 1912 to Labrador, Newfoundland, where he was associated for a time with the medical missionary Sir Wilfred Grenfell. Birdseye traded in furs in Labrador for the next five years.
During a visit to the United States, Birdseye married Eleanor Gannett on August 21, 1915; the couple had four children. In 1916 he returned to Labrador with his wife and their infant son. His changed domestic circumstances drew Birdseye's attention to the problems of food preservation. An avid fisherman, Birdseye preserved his catches in snow in the sub–zero winds. Impressed with the flavor and freshness of his frozen fish upon thawing them out—as though they had just been caught—Birdseye started to experiment with other indigenous species such as caribou and rabbit. He discovered that the meat from these animals, if frozen quickly and deeply, also retained its freshness and flavor until thawed out weeks later.
After perfecting a mechanical quick–freeze method for preserving food that would simulate the natural sub–zero climate he found in Labrador, Birdseye started his own company in New York in 1922, freezing fish fillets. Over the next several decades, his name and the Birds Eye logo became synonymous with retail frozen foods, in much the same way as the word "Kleenex" was used to indicate facial tissues.
Although his process ultimately made Birdseye very wealthy, he continued to work for his entire life. His last project (1953–1955) took him to Peru on an assignment to develop a new method of making paper stock from bagasse (crushed sugarcane stalks). While there, he suffered a heart attack that he attributed to the high altitude. He never fully recovered and died the following year in New York City.
Birdseye was a hands–on inventor and experimenter in the tradition of Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Edison. He was an original thinker and investigator, gifted with keen powers of observation and an enormous curiosity. He was also a capable businessman who held some 300 American and foreign patents. His early interest in the natural world never carried over into the business world but became a lifelong avocation nonetheless. Near the end of his life, he was coauthor with his wife of Growing Woodland Plants (1951).
World War I had interrupted Birdseye's search for a commercial application of his findings. After returning to the United States, he became the purchasing agent for the United States Housing Corporation (1917–1919) and assistant to the president of the United States Fisheries Association (1920–1922). In 1922 he resumed his experiments with quick–freezing, establishing himself in the corner of an icehouse in New Jersey. Encouraged, he formed Birdseye Seafoods, Inc., in New York, with a $20,000 stock subscription. His own capital investment consisted of $7 for an electric fan, buckets of brine, and cakes of ice. The first successful product was dressed fillets of haddock, frozen brick–hard in square containers made from old candy boxes. However, the general public proved disinterested, confusing his product with regular "cold storage" fish. Families were disinclined to know the detailed effects of scientific freezing upon the microscopic cellular composition of fish tissue and the benefits thereof, and soon his new company went bankrupt.
Undaunted, Birdseye started a new company, General Seafoods Corporation, with a $60,000 stock exchange in 1924. Located near a reliable source of fresh fish in Gloucester, Massachusetts, the company also housed laboratories for research and development. With a small group of associates, Birdseye perfected his novel process for quick–freezing, which consisted of packing dressed fish in cartons, then freezing the contents between two refrigerated surfaces under pressure (the "double–belt freezer," which later used refrigerated metal plates) that allowed the heat exchange to be accomplished directly and evenly upon the foods. By 1928 he was able to apply the technique to meat, poultry, fish, and shellfish in commercial quantities. He coined the word "quick–freeze," and referred to his products as "frosted foods." The missing element, public acceptance, appeared after 1929. In that year the Postum Company, skilled in the distribution of consumer food products, together with the Goldman Sachs Trading Corporation, acquired all patents and assets of Birdseye's company for a reported $22 million ($20 million for the patents and $2 million for the assets). Subsequently, the Postum Company purchased the Goldman Sachs interest and adopted the name General Foods.
In the 1940s, Birdseye invented a machine capable of quick–freezing loose vegetables individually and a process for preserving foods by quick–drying that he called the "anhydrous method." Neither was developed commercially. He also invented a reflector, an infrared heat lamp and a recoilless harpoon gun.
The scientific principle of freezing foods was already known when Birdseye began his first experiments. However, he was able to perfect and then apply this principle to consumer needs, thus bringing about the birth of the retail frozen food industry. Timing was perfect: his "frosted foods" market coincided with both the development of home refrigeration and freezing units, as well as with the onset of the Great Depression (1929), during which time the preservation of food for future use became of paramount importance. Of additional importance was the new availability of frozen fruits and vegetables on a year–round basis nationwide—previously available only during the harvesting season (with the exception of states where year–round growing occurred, such as in California) unless canned or bottled for later use.
1886: Born in Brooklyn, New York.
1912: Traded furs in Labrador, Newfoundland.
1922: Founded Birdseye Seafood Inc.
1924: Developed quick–freeze process for freezing food; founded General Seafood Corporation.
1928: Developed the double–belt freezer.
1929: Sold patents and assets and became the frozen food division of General Foods Corporation.
1930: Birds Eye Frosted Foods appeared in retail markets, creating the birth of the retail frozen food industry.
1934: Birds Eye Frosted Food contracted with American Radiator Corporation to provide retail frozen food display cases.
1956: Died in New York City.
Parallel in time, during the 1920s, farmers represented 27 percent of the population, and hydroponics (the growing of plants in water) had been invented. The U.S. Department of Agriculture created the Bureaus of Home Economics and Dairying during these years. Interest in the preservation of surplus crops and meats heightened on a commercial level but had not yet trickled down to the end–users, or consumers. Families began purchasing refrigerators during the 1920s, just as facilities for transporting, storing, and displaying the frozen foods were being developed. An article appearing in the September 1929 issue of the Ladies' Home Journal, entitled "A New Food Vision," featured a photograph of Birdseye's belt freezer and speculated what the food stores of the future would look like.
The new technology created a competitive market, and, according to Paddleford, 60 varieties of frozen food were available to the public in 1943, packed by 140 companies and sold under 72 brands in 30,000 stores across 48 states. Advertisements from that period show that Penguin brand "frozen–fresh" peas sold for 21 cents, while Birds Eye brand frozen cherries sold for 30 cents. Exulted Paddleford in a 1943 Times article, "cardboard and plastic film are all it takes," to package one million pounds of frozen peas, whereas "some 269,196 pounds of steel and tin" were required to store the same amount of peas in cans. These were important considerations during the wartime years, not to mention the improved taste and freshness of the frozen foods, compared to the canned ones. In 1944, Birds Eye had leased the first insulated railroad cars designed to transport food nationwide. The refrigerated shipping industry was thus born. Within a few years, quick–frozen foods had revolutionized food distribution and had brought about sweeping changes in national eating habits. Additionally, it had effected fundamental improvements in American agriculture through stimulating the seed industry to refine varieties for quick–frozen products, introducing quality controls in field production and stabilizing prices, which brought millions of acres of farmland into more profitable use.
Although Birdseye died in 1956, he lived long enough to appreciate the thriving success of his revolutionary ideas. His company remained at the forefront of frozen food technology, being the first to offer foil overwraps on boxed vegetables, which held moisture ten times better than waxed paper, and also was the first to introduce vegetables and sauces to which meat was added, for the health–conscious consumers. Since the mid–1990s, Birds Eye has introduced 57 new items on the frozen food market, and the familiar "Birds Eye" logo remains prominent in both small groceries and supermarkets worldwide.

American businessman and inventor whose name became synonymous with frozen foods. Clarence Birdseye was born in Brooklyn, New York. He was a naturalist from early on, but turned to business when he found that he lacked the funds to finish his studies at Amherst College. He left school to become a fur trader in Labrador in 1912 and again in 1916. While there, he noticed that the locals froze food in order to sustain themselves during the long harsh winter. When Birdseye returned to the United States, he formed General Seafoods Company, where he began selling his own brand of frozen foods. His process of quick freezing preserved the flavor of the food. Birdseye's frozen fish, fruits, and vegetables quickly became a huge success with the public. From 1930-34 he served as president of Birds Eye Frosted Foods, and from 1935-38 he ran Birdseye Electric Company. Birdseye held nearly 300 patents on inventions ranging from heat lamps, to a harpoon gun.

Chiara Valenti Omero re-elected in the directive board of AFIC
28 February 2013 /0 Comments/in News 2013
"The Association Italian Festival of Cinema is a system to create network, as on the local Casa del Cinema in Trieste: essential to guarantee a future to the film festivals."
Chiara Valenti Omero, president of Maremetraggio, International Short Film and Debut Works Festival, scheduled in Trieste from 30th June to 6th July 2013, has been re-elected inside the directive board of AFIC, the Association of Italian Festival of Cinema that gathers the main Italian film festivals.
The directive board, elected by the general meeting of last 20th February and in office for the next two years, it is also composed from: Giorgio Gosetti (Courmayer Noir in Festival), Alberto Lastrucci (Festival dei Popoli), Federico Pommier Vincelli (Molise Cinema) and Giovanni Spagnoletti (Mostra Internazionale del nuovo Cinema), who was elected president of Afic. "I am very happy and honored to have been re-elected to represent the festivals of northern Italy – comments Chiara Valenti Omero -. In a moment like this I am more convinced that networking and set aside foolish individualism is essential to find a new way of understanding the model " film festival". In our small work we are already doing it – continues the president of Maremetraggio -, realizing exactly in Friuli Venezia Giulia and particularly in Trieste, with the project Casa del Cinema, a synergistic system that will be in my opinion the only real way to ensure a future for all of us. Who is not prepared to take a step back in this moment cannot do three forward with all the others, and also for this Afic is indispensable today." Founded in November 2004, the Association Italian Festival of Cinema proposes itself the objective to gather the Italian cinema festivals in a coordinate and recognized system by public institutions, from spectators and sponsors, in the certainty that in the complex of the Italian audiovisual system, the festivals represent a fundamental subject for the promotion, for the knowledge and the diffusion of the cinema and audiovisual culture.
Chiara Valenti Omero, president of the association Maremetraggio from January 2011, has on her shoulders years of experience in the field of cinema: from 2002 she is vice-president of the association Maremetraggio and follows the organization and the artistic direction of the homonym cinema festival. She also deals with the selection of short films for television transmitter and other festivals and exhibitions in Europe (Lisbon, Athens, Podgorica, Sofia, Bucharest). With the association she dealt with the production of numerous short films: the last one has been La penna di Hemingway of Renzo Carbonera, with Sergio Rubini, Christiane Filangieri, Cosimo Cinieri and Francesco Barilli, introduced in preview to Giornate degli Autori in 2011, whose rights have been acquired by Universal Studio. In 2003 she has collaborated together with Nuvola Film to the production of the first feature film of Massimo Cappelli Il giorno + bello. From March 2007 she belongs to the directive board of AFIC (Associazione Festival Italiani Cinema). She is currently working to the development of a documentary (based on a story of Giorgio Pressburger and directed by Renzo Carbonera) of multiculturalism of Trieste, produced by Istituto Luce.

A School Supply Round-Up from Tuckright!
Generally the public schools are requiring more support from the families for student supplies. However, most schools have moved into the computer age by supplying laptops to each student for their personal use during the school year. This laptop, along with a student's cell phone, puts a lot of computing power in their hands. Supplies and accessories that augment this computing capability will strengthen your student's ability to perform in and out of the classroom.
Local WIFI in your house will permit your child to use the laptop anywhere that is comfortable and convenient. The purchase of an inexpensive wireless router connected with your Internet source will provide the basic requirements. Some of the more popular routers are: Apple, Arris, Asus, Belkin, D-Link, Google, Linksys, Motorola, NETGEAR, TP- LINK. These brands have products that range from around $80.00 to $275.00 in price depending on features and capabilities, and can be found at local retailers like Best Buy or online at Amazon.
All students differ in their ability to perceive a written project when it is strictly on line. Inexpensive Ink Jet printers are an asset for the students to be able to view completed documents in their final form. These printers use a cartridge ink supply that is easily replaceable and relatively inexpensive. The printer's prices start around $100.00 and increase, again based on features and function. Popular brands are: Brother, Epson, HP. Again, these can be purchased at local retailers like Best Buy or online at Amazon.
and a few others have powerful printing APP solutions that can be considered.
A "Hard Drive" is a data storage device on computers. An external hard drive is a hard drive which you can unplug and take it wherever you want. It connects via a USB cable to a USB port in the computer. It holds a much greater amount of data than a typical USB Flash or Thumb Drive. These storage devices are a nice addition to your student's electronic tools as they will hold all their projects for an indefinite amount of time. These range in capacity from a few Gigabytes to several Terabytes. The prices start around $50.00 and scale upward to several hundred. The selection is broad as there are many brands on the market. Once again, check out the popular suppliers like Best Buy or on line at Amazon.
When you provide these tools to your student, be they lower elementary, middle school or high, the results will be encouraging. They'll know you care about providing them with the latest and greatest support to eliminate any restrictions and you are engaging in their technology world. The younger students today are cutting their teeth on this technology and will need to have these types of items to stay ahead of increasing demands placed on them every year.
What school supply can your student NOT live without? Share with us in the comments below!

We worked with Guy Martin to help break a world-record on the slopes of Grandvalira.
What we were asked
EPM were approached in 2014 by North One TV with the task of designing and manufacturing a gravity sledge for Channel 4's "Speed with Guy Martin". The series focused on various record attempts by the British motorcyclist and TV personality, with the episode in question titled "World's Fastest Toboggan".
Teaming up with Sheffield Hallam University's Centre for Sports Engineering Research and Guy himself, we carefully optimised the sledge for pure speed with the aid of F1 technology. Guy spent three days on site where we took him through the entire process and ensured he played an active role in the design phase.
The episode centred around Guy attempting to break the world sledding speed record. Visiting the ski resort of Grandvalira, he took a 984 ft run with a 360 ft drop – that's steeper than the main climbing route of Mount Everest. Powered by our sledge, he managed to smash the world record, reaching over 83mph and beating previous record holder Rolf Allerdissen by 21mph.
Watch the videos below of our record attempt and our feature on the BBC news.

Biodiversity and Natural Resources (BNR)
Interim Program Director and Principal Research Scholar (BNR); Research Group Leader and Principal Research Scholar (IBF)
Building on the research previously undertaken in the Ecosystems Services and Management and Water programs, the BNR Program fully exploits the potential for biodiversity research within integrated system analysis.
The program brings together different elements of land and aquatic ecosystems including agriculture, forests, and fisheries with water and the marine environment to inform global and regional policy assessments and provide robust science-based knowledge and foresight. The program aims to establish IIASA as an international community hub for biosphere research through innovative tool development; to lead the integration of biophysical-economic modeling with governance; to engage with stakeholders; and to facilitate community driven efforts. It provides policymaking support through core program and group research undertaken in the four BNR research groups.
BNR further engages in bilateral collaborations with other research programs and groups at the institute on key cross-cutting themes such as climate change adaptation and mitigation, the green economy, resilient food systems, transboundary governance, resource depletion and migration, and digital transformation.

Five architectural firms express interest in CPD headquarters project
By Editor | November 15, 2017 | 0
There are five architecture firms that have expressed interest in working with the City of Cairo to design a new headquarters for the Cairo Police Department. The five firms responded to the city's issue of a Request for Proposal, and now the city council will have to determine which one they want to work with on the project.
At the council's regular meeting on Monday, Cairo City Manager Chris Addleton asked whether the council wanted to appoint a committee to consider the issue.
Cairo Mayor Bobby Burns suggested the council meet as one body on the matter.
"From what I hear, everyone has an interest," Mayor Burns said, "I think we need to have a workshop with all council members. One may have a comment or thought that others might not think of."
The councilmen agreed to hold a workshop on Monday, Nov. 20, to create a metric for selecting the architect.
"We get to set parameters, decide what criteria they have to meet or how many years experience they've had," said Councilman Jerry Cox.
Addleton said, "I can get a selection of criteria, and we can go through all of them and discuss them."
Councilman James H. (Jimmy) Douglas stated, "I'm assuming they gave reference of a police department they've built. I would suggest looking into that. There's no use in us spinning our wheels."
Addleton confirmed three had worked on area departments.
The group decided to meet Monday at 5 p.m. for the workshop.
The Cairo City Council also:
– Reappointed Charles M. (Chuck) Stafford to a three-year term on the Cairo Development Authority. The authority pre-dates the Joint Development Authority and remains in existence as the issuing body of bonds for previous development projects such as the U.S. Post Office in Cairo.
– Heard from City Council attorney Tom Lehman that he is continuing his research into Councilman Jerry Cox's question regarding a possible solution to "yelping" dogs. "I have received a couple of calls both in my district and out of my district saying please don't let that drop," Cox said.
"All I see now is a noise ordinance. You can't outlaw dogs, particularly yappers, which tend to be small dogs," said Lehman, "I think it will have to be something to do with consistency or a time allowance."
Mayor Burns asked, "So, every time someone calls the police have to go sit and time it?"
Lehman said about a possible solution, "It's going to be a tough one, I tell you."
– Unanimously agreed to pay for cancer benefits for the City's paid and volunteer firefighters as required by House Bill 146 passed by the Georgia Legislature. The City of Cairo will purchase the policies through the Georgia Municipal Association which developed the program for those cities in need of the required coverage.
– Heard a proposal from Tax Specialists of Georgia – Southeast representatives Clifford W. Harpe Jr., and Jack Brinson about their company's sales tax recovery service. Because city governments have tax exempt status, they are eligible for sales tax refunds on certain purchases. Brinson told the council that in some construction projects, such as the city's recent water treatment plant, some materials purchased by the contractor would be exempt from sales tax. He explained that his firm would comb through the city's receipts on the project and file a Claim for Refund with the state.
"A lot of engineers don't understand the scope of exemptions," said Brinson.
Brinson told the council he had worked with the Department of Revenue 30 years and understands the nuances of the Georgia Sales Tax Code.
"It's hard to say how much you bought that was tax exempt, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a $100,000 refund," Brinson said.
The company's fee for the work would be 25 percent of the refund, he explained.
The city council took the information under advisement for consideration. No further discussion was had on the topic.
– Approved a special event permit request from Travis Harrison and the First Assembly of God to close 12th Avenue N.E. from Driveway to Pineland Drive on Saturday, Nov. 18 for Thanksgiving in the City food giveaway between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
– Held a public hearing on a conditional use request from Matthew Heaberlin for tech services, 1319 10th Ave. N.E., located within a Single-Family Residential District. Heaberlin told the council he resides in the house and although most of his business is located elsewhere wants the to be able to work from home when needed on his graphic design, websites and network support business.
At the conclusion of the public hearing, the city council voted unanimously to approve the conditional use permit, which was also supported by the Cairo Planning Commission and Southwest Georgia Regional Commission.
– Approved an Alcoholic Beverage License for beer retail package due to change of ownership of Easy Stop, 995 U.S. 84 E. Ankitkumar R. Patel was the applicant.

reported events that occurred at 2442 Coachman Drive on August 7th, 1996
A Deltona man was charged late Saturday just hours after the body of his pregnant former wife was found buried in his back yard. Police discovered the body of Angelica Garner, 23, under a newly poured concrete slab at the Deltona home of Michael Garner. The woman, who was nine months' pregnant with her fiance's child, had been missing since Wednesday. Deputies who served a search warrant early Saturday at Garner's home, 2442 Coachman Drive, discovered the woman's body underneath 4 to 6 inches of dirt topped with a fresh inch of cement. Police charged Garner, 25, with first-degree murder in the death of his ex-wife and manslaughter in the death of the fetus. The cause of death has not been released. Police have sealed off Michael Garner's home. Angel Garner and her fiance, Todd Schirner, lived together, and he last saw her Wednesday morning when she headed out to a doctor's appointment.

As an EEMP volunteer, I have facilitated a partnership between Pueblo Library and the nonprofit organization Environmental Education Media Project. On Thursday August 15th, I showed the 30 minute EEMP film Hope in a Changing Climate free for the public at Pueblo Library. Following the film, the audience enjoyed an hour long Skype discussion with filmmaker and soil scientist John D. Liu, who joined us live from Beijing. John answered questions from several audience members and expanded on many of the issues covered in EEMP's films. Some attendees included members of local organizations such as CSU Extension office of Pueblo, Beulah's School of Natural Sciences, Pikes Peak Permaculture, and Transition Manitou. Farming families joined us from all over the front range – Pueblo, Monument, Colorado Springs, Fowler, Avondale, and farther.
On Thursday, September 12, I will be hosting another event at Pueblo Library on behalf of EEMP. I will be showing the 50 minute film Green Gold starting at 5:30 pm. After a short intermission following the film, we'll be discussing the film and environmental education, ecosystem restoration, and various local projects. We have a panel of guests who will be speaking on behalf of their organizations to inform the community of what is currently going on, what is being planned, and what needs there may be, to help meet more of the community's needs and find out what might be missing. Included in the panel are people like certified permaculture teachers Becky Elder and Brian Fritz of Transition Manitou and Pikes Peak Permaculture, and Beki J. Guion of Arkansas Valley Organic Growers and Javernick Family Farms / Family Roots Farm. Many of the participants in the August 15th event expressed a strong desire to return to continue the discussion in September. We hope many more area organizations and individuals will join us. The auditorium can hold 200 people, and we have plenty of room to set up more display materials if there are organizations interested in participating by displaying information. Please contact me regarding specifics.
These events are completely free for the public, put on entirely by volunteers, and not sponsored by any particular business or organization.

Money, parenting and happiness: A comparative and historical perspective
2020年2月17日	/ 18:30-20:00 h
Hiroshi Ono, Hitotsubashi University Business School
Matthias Doepke, Northwestern University
Money and parenting are two key factors that can bring considerable joy or misery to our daily lives. Empirical studies have shown that while money is generally associated with greater happiness, having small kids can actually be a source of unhappiness, especially for women. In this session, two experts – a sociologist and an economist – explore the intricate relationship between money, parenting and happiness, from a comparative and historical perspective.
Professor Ono will present international evidence of marriage, parenting and happiness. Generally, marriage has a positive effect, and parenting has a negative effect on happiness, but there are some exceptions. For example in Scandinavia, the negative effect of parenting disappears, owing largely to the extensive social insurance and institutionalized family support. Another consistent pattern found around the world is that the negative effect of parenting is stronger among women than for men. Professor Ono will also discuss some features of marriage, parenting and happiness that are unique to Japan.
Professor Doepke will apply the tools of economic analysis to explain the relationship between love, money and parenting, and how we raise our kids. Loving parents want their kids to be happy and do well, but how to accomplish this is shaped by the economic environment. In countries with high economic inequality such as the United States, parents push hard to ensure their children have a path to security and success. In less unequal nations such as Sweden, the stakes in parenting are less high, and parents can relax and grant more independence to their children. Professor Doepke will also show how the trend towards intensive parenting in many countries puts social mobility and equality of opportunity at risk, and discuss policy options for counteracting this trend.
