...replica of an Italian farmhouse. As we spoke, a hefty guy, beer in hand, walked over to our table. He introduced himself as a "firefighter here in Chicago" and said he wanted to shake Batali's hand. The firefighter's wife then came over--the first of an endless stream of fans who would approach Batali over the weekend. Cards were pressed into his hand; pictures were taken; autographs were requested on books and shirts and, in one case, a KitchenAid stand mixer. One young female fan walked up to Batali late Friday night and greeted him by biting...
Arizona has grown through a careful combination of solid value pricing, attractive packaging and a steady stream of new products. Such new health-conscious items as Diet Decaffeinated Green Tea have thus far not cannibalized sales of its reliable iced-tea flavors. Almost all the drinks come in oversize 24-oz. cans, with the 99¢ price painted on the front to prevent retail markups, and each flavor gets a distinct look. "Arizona's marketing has been in eye-catching, aesthetically pleasing packaging," says Gary Hemphill, managing director of Beverage Marketing Corp., a research and consulting firm. "To win that shelf...
...result of all that is warmer oceans, and a result of warmer oceans can be, paradoxically, colder continents within a hotter globe. Ocean currents running between warm and cold regions serve as natural thermoregulators, distributing heat from the equator toward the poles. The Gulf Stream, carrying warmth up from the tropics, is what keeps Europe's climate relatively mild. Whenever Europe is cut off from the Gulf Stream, temperatures plummet. At the end of the last ice age, the warm current was temporarily blocked, and temperatures in Europe fell as much as 10°F, locking the continent in glaciers...
What usually keeps the Gulf Stream running is that warm water is lighter than cold water, so it floats on the surface. As it reaches Europe and releases its heat, the current grows denser and sinks, flowing back to the south and crossing under the northbound Gulf Stream until it reaches the tropics and starts to warm again. The cycle works splendidly, provided the water remains salty enough. But if it becomes diluted by freshwater, the salt concentration drops, and the water gets lighter, idling on top and stalling the current. Last December, researchers associated with Britain's National Oceanography...
...worry is that the whole climate of Europe will change," says Adrian Luckman, senior lecturer in geography at the University of Wales, Swansea. "We in the U.K. are on the same latitude as Alaska. The reason we can live here is the Gulf Stream...
