Recalls Push More Companies into Digital Food Tracking

Reporting from San Jose — Inside a Silicon Valley company's windowless vault, massive servers silently monitor millions of heads of lettuce, from the time they are plucked from the dirt to the moment the bagged salad is scanned at the grocery checkout counter.

Because.

They have their Prozac, their Oxycontin, their… Continue

By Greg Halvorson Friday, October 1, 2010

Sometimes your jaw drops. You know they lie. Know that increasingly desperate Democrats will say anything to cling to power, but occasionally the rhetoric just blows you away. Take the following, blustered last week in Taunton, Massachusetts, by Hillary’s husband:

Ironically, it's called the Revolution Edition!

Monopoly, which turns 75 this year, is celebrating with a modern redesign.

The game's anniversary edition, which features a circular board, eliminates cash altogether: instead of pastel-colored paper money, little real estate magnates will gobble up house and hotel pieces with credit cards. And gone, too, are the game's classic metal playing pieces, which are replaced with small, engraved plastic… Continue
