"Underwater Baited Hook" Is World Wildlife Federation's Smart Gear Winner
2009-09-20 03:08:00 At the moment an albatross swoops down to the sea for a bit of fish bait, it can go from being one of the most graceful soaring and swooping birds to being "bycatch," the term for an unintended victim of a fishery net that few birds escape.

NBC Too Dumb To Sell Smart Ideas?
2009-08-06 16:45:00 By: CT In the classic flick The Big Chill, Jeff Goldblum’s character, who labored for People magazine, worked under an edict to not write any article longer than the average American could read during the average crap. Apparenty, NBC is now going to be operating under orders to not try and sell the average American on anything that can’t be easily summed up in 30 seconds or less. So says, basically, Angela Bromstad, NBC’s president of primetime entertainment. Yesterday, she told the Television Critics of America that KINGS basically failed because it was “a little too high brow and too difficult to sell in a 30-second slot.” She went on to say “It doesn’t mean we’re not looking for big ideas. They have to be big ideas that the audience can grab on to.” For the record, let us fill Mr. Bromstad in on the real reason KINGS failed. While the big problem was marketing, it wasn’t the concept of the show or the inability of the audience to understand so big a con...

Itron (ITRI): Energy savings from smart meters
2009-07-28 14:00:00 "I'm adding Itron (NASDAQ: ITRI) to my diversified portfolio of stocks in the alternative energy space," says Elliott Gue. In The Energy Strategist, he explains, "The firm will benefit from both the HR 2454 bill (a cap-and-trade system designed to reduce US greenhouse gas emissions) and the stimulus bill which included direct subsidies aimed at promoting efficiency and building a more intelligent electric grid.""Itron is a leading play on energy efficiency and smart grid technologies, a key, near-term component of cutting carbon emissions. "Itron is already a leader in automatic meters. Traditional gas and electric meters require a utility technician to manually read each display in each home and business. "Automatic- meters, however, transmit data via a radio signal directly to technicians, accelerating the meter reading process and cutting costs for utilities.

RCom’s Novel Idea a Smart Move - Don’t Think So
2009-07-14 09:22:00 There is always a transitional period while moving on from one technology to the other. It’s not just from an Internet/Software/Tech perspective. The ancient Europeans might have scorned Gutenberg’s Press the same quite a few “puritans” in India scorn the concept of an e-book. Now, an ebook for all purposes is difficult to read as compared to a normal in-your-hand book (personal opinion of the author). While more sophisticated devices like the iPhone reader or the Amazon Kindle might inspire a lot of attention in the West, most people in India read ebooks on the PC, some might have ebooks via PDF readers on their mobile phones, with most people sticking to the normal print concept. No one denies how useful ebooks can be. Access to a vast array of information, search facilities, and cost and space effectiveness are clearly some of the most ardent arguments supporting it. But Reliance Communications has taken a step forward. More so a leap, into a hitherto unkn...

How to make smart choices at the Taste of Chicago

I know that majority of the food is not on my healthy list, however I find that I have to go at least once each year. Here are a few tips I can give you to help you stay focused as you wind your way from one end of Columbus to the other:1) If you feel you have no self control (and by no means is this a jab, we all have these moments) or do not want to overeat, buy a smaller amount of tickets.

Family Travel Insurance - Be a Smart Buyer
2009-06-30 05:18:00 I am a 'what-if' kind of person. I've used this phrase to describe myself for years, even before I had kids. When I was single, I always made sure I had enough life insurance so that my parents or sister wouldn't have to pay off the balance of my Toyota Tercel auto loan should I pass away.My 'what-if' tendencies are even more pronounced now that I have kids. (The photo is of two of my kids watching planes at the airport in Boston, 2004.) Now, I worry about many more things; like about those drivers on the other side of the yellow line. You know the ones: they are motoring in the opposite direction, and at any moment could veer into my lane and cause all kinds of mayhem. Yep, I worry about them and am not embarrassed to tell you that whenever possible, I make a point of driving in the lane furthest away from that yellow line.I have the uncanny (maybe troubling?) ability to foresee danger in detail. For example, most moms will admonish their kids not to run with scissors. I, how...
