September 17, 2007 (FinancialWire) Xerox Corp. began filling more than 20 miles of pipe and stainless steel tanks with billions of micron-sized toner particles with the opening of its first U.S. based emulsion aggregation toner plant. The $60 million facility is a move by Xerox to become more environmentally friendly.
Developed by Xerox and protected by more than 300 patents, EA toner produces sharper images using less toner per page. The five-story 100,000 square-foot plant located near Rochester, New York will be staffed by more than 40 chemical engineers and increases Xerox's capacity for toner made by the EA process by 175 percent.

The Story of Egypt
The problem
Making Education work for people at the bottom of the pyramid.
Why is it Important
The best way for people at the bottom of the pyramid to be able to move up is by getting a great education. People who are stuck at the bottom of the pyramid increase the risk of disruption for the society as a whole.
A simple idea:
Tender, Loving, Care
“You have to connect with them emotionally,” he said. “Then you have to provide them with a safe place with consistent rules where they can be kids. Then you have to use better pedagogy and better instructional practices. Only then have you made inroads into their personal lives.
That works:

Google News redirects wire search traffic
ByAndrew Edgecliffe-Johnson in London
Published: August 31 2007 23:41 | Last updated: August 31 2007 23:41
The four agencies – the Associated Press, the Canadian Press, the Press Association and Agence France-Presse – will supply a “feed” to Google News, allowing its algorithms to detect which sites are running wire copy and remove them from the search results.
Because the four wire services do not have their own consumer news websites, Google News will host their original articles on its own pages. Google did not disclose what agreements it had made for paying to carry content from the four agencies, which had challenged Google News in court before making peace with the search engine this year. more

My favorite way to keep track of the conversations at the top is the FinancialTimes of London. The magazine articles in the Economist are just a little too long for my lifestyle. If I'm going to spend that much time with an article, I will tend to read a book. Most of the US business press is too parochial. And, alas, I am only fluent in English.

Venice Beach in southern California is known to outsiders largely for its sunshine, its boardwalk, its surfers and its bikini-clad inline skaters.
To an increasing number of Mexicans from the poor southern state of Oaxaca, however, it is also a home. Venice happens to have one of the largest concentrations of migrants from Oaxaca anywhere outside of Mexico. Zapotec-speaking indigenous groups from the market town of Tlacolula and nearby villages work in stalls along the boardwalk or as cooks, waiters and mai
