Will People Be Storing Meat and Dairy Products?

Microbiologist Dan O Sullivan, found an interesting preservative while doing research on the intestine.  This was actually an accidental find, but Dan O Sullivan already has a patent on it.  Why?  Simple, the preservative properties of this, are already at work in the human body.  This brings up one question that people are asking.  Does this mean that it's safe?  Well, there are still studies being done on it, so it's hard to say.

One thing is clear though.  Mr. Sullivan is already expecting foods to have this preservative in them in at least one to three years.  He said three years, others believe as little as one.  What is this preservative called?  Nisin and it has bacteria killing properties that can even destroy E. Coli.  This may be one reason why some people are subjective to the E. Coli strain.  Not enough Nisin in their system?

Of course, with this new discovery, there arises a lot of questions.  Is it safe to eat?  Many suspect that it is, sense it's found in the body naturally, yet some believe that too much, could lead to disorders, diseases, etc.  How much research is needed to prove this safe?  Is one year enough time?  Or is the whole three years required?  Perhaps even longer?

Nisin actually has similar chemical properties that are in the preservative Bisin, (used in cheese).  Some believe that this preservative will allow the preservation of food to be longer than just a few years.  Maybe even forever.  Imagine if the Egyptians had stored Meat and Dairy Products in their tomes?  What if we were digging up several thousand year old Meat and Dairy that was still good?

So, there arise another question.  Many people like to put back food for hard times.  Survival food, so to speak.  Will you be putting back Meat and Dairy if it can last 10 - 20 years or longer?  How long will it be before you decide that it's safe?  Will you wait another 10 - 20 years to see if their are any side effects from eating too much of this preservative?

Foursquare and Instagram Added to Empire Avenue

What do you get when you cross Empire Avenue, $1.2 Million, and big shots such as: Crosslink Capitol, iNova Capitol, and Bioware Co-Founders?  Endless Possibilities that's what.  Empire Avenue (known as EAv here on out) recently acquired investors.  These investors mean a lot to the EAv team and it's players.

Why does this mean a lot?  Well, instead of "Going out and buying a Zeppelin," there quote, not mine, they'll be spending a lot of that on new team members.  These team members will give a boost to production in the EAv atmosphere.  This is great news, considering the fact that there are only a few of them to begin with.

More team members isn't the only reason to be happy though.  They just added connections to Foursquare and Instagram.  For those of you who use mobile devices and actually get out enough to use them, this will be a huge plus.  With eight profiles already, two more wouldn't hurt.  Right?  Also, with these added connections and team members, they'll be able to add connections quicker than you'd expect normally.

So, what does this mean for EAv?  More connections, more team members, more users, more virtual goods, better updates, etc.  All in all, I think it's a good day for EAv.  If you aren't already using this massive Stock Market game that puts a value on your Social Media activity, now might be the time to join.  It's only going to sky rocket from here.  And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.

Mumford and Sons

There is a bad that I like called Mumford and Sons.  They rock, literally.  Seriously though.  They are awesome. They have a way to keep me awake at the wee hours of the night.  It's not joke.  If you like good Banjo music.  This is your band.  Thing is, they aren't only Banjo.  They are Guitar and Electric Guitar.  They are Drums and Vocals.  One of their tops songs is a favorite of mine.  It's called Little Lion Man.  I feel that the song is about someone you let go.  Someone you liked a lot and now you can't have them back.  That's the basics.  But, then again, how many songs are like this?  A bunch.  But, this one stands out, not because of what it means, but the way they have with words.  Their a UK band.  Which is even more awesome.

I'll warn you before you hit the play button.  They do use a curse word in this song.  But, it's used in context.  Don't judge it, before you give it a go.  Just might be your next favorite song.




I hope that you really enjoy this song.  At least half as much as I do.  It's truly epic.
