It’s a fact of the grocery store that the most healthy food often has the least marketing muscle behind it. The best sources of fiber and vitamins are fresh vegetables and fruit, and yet it’s the processed, packaged junk food fortified with vitamin and fiber powder that screams for attention. The Center for Science in the Public Interest recently published a comprehensive report on the subject, a persuasive indictment delicately called “Food Labeling Chaos.” “Consumers need honest labeling so they can spend their food dollars wisely and avoid diet-related disease,” said CSPI senior staff attorney Ilene Ringel Heller, co-author of the report

A new material developed by researchers at Princeton and Caltech is capable of harvesting energy from the simplest of movements like walking or breathing. This new rubber chip made of PZT (lead zirconate titanate) nano-ribbons could eventually power small portable electronic devices like cell phones. The PZT is embedded in silicone rubber sheets that produce electricity when flexed or other pressure is applied. The scientists who developed the chip see them being inserted into shoes or even within the body to continually harness power for our portable devices. Before that freaks you out too much, the scientists envision the chips being placed next to the lungs to utilize breathing motions for powering pacemakers. Pacemaker users wouldn’t have to undergo surgery to replace batteries since their breathing would be a constant source of energy.

These are tough times, and politicians have to make hard choices about how to spend the smaller amounts of money they have. Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York, for example, has told the city’s labor unions, including teachers, police officers and firefighters, that they will probably have to decide between smaller raises or layoffs, a decision he called “a Hobson’s…

As freelance writers, our income is very unpredictable. We can set income goals, market ourselves, and create several income streams, but the truth is that it’s hard to say with certainty how much money we’ll make next month or six months from now. Even with contracts, clients come and go.

On Friday, I was part of a plenary session to discuss progress toward the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). This was my first plenary at Davos and I noticed that the auditorium thankfully looked much smaller from the stage — it looks much bigger when you are in the audience! Nearly all the MDGs are closely related to the mission of microfinance so it was an honor to be part of the far-ranging discussion. Mark Malloch-Brown moderated the panel that featured Bill Gates; Jeff Sachs; Morgan Tsvangirai, prime minister of Zimbabwe; Helen Clark, UNDP Administrator and former president of New Zealand; and Michael Kazatchkine, head of the Global Fund, which is devoted to combating AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis

The phrase “necessity is the mother of invention” is especially true in the case of Rose Marie Iskowitz. A one-time marketing and sales representative, Iskowitz had just given birth to her second child when the idea for a specially designed diaper changing station dubbed the Dipe N’ Go began to take shape, reports MyCentralJersey.com . Since I was always on the go and I had an older child, I realized that a lot of the time I was really just changing the baby in the back in the hatch of my (sport utility vehicle),” Iskowitz said.
