The new 234m facility, one of the world’s largest, will concentrate its research to optimize growth recipes for leafy vegetables, strawberries and herbs.
If people know there is an 80 percent chance they will be stopped, forced to park their car, and not able to use that car for three days (72 hours), or any other car, they will stop doing certain risky things.
The certainty of an immediate penalty is more important than the severity of the penalty.
Stop molly-coddling car drivers. Most of the urban roads were built for bicycles and pedestrians originally.
Look, when you get to keep all the money you stole and pay a fine of 0.01 pct of the amount you stole, it's like a checking fee for being one day late.
Until we see real jail time for senior execs who signed off on these illegal actions, it's meaningless.
The thing is, they are talking of a three year phase in.
But there are many schedules that would be quicker.
One might be a 90 day cease-and-desist. That might be difficult for some.
Another might be a 90 day cease-and-desist for firms that have component firms that use non-transfat recipes, but with a waiver for the retesting component (e.g. the label it's sold under being tested again - since it was already tested, you let them not change the labeling until a reasonable time, but they change the recipe to one they can already make) or for insourced products (import permits waived to meet the new FDA requirement until the local firms can make it.
It's a series of staggered schedules. You also allow them to sell already packaged materials, but not to make more after a cutoff date (e.g. 90 days), although they can use the existing packaging for a transition period.
The only exemptions might be small 50 or less person firms, who might have an expedited testing regime to allow a slight reformulation to meet the transfat removal without full scale retesting in quantity, but with a small sample size (test after switch). Since the reformulation makes it "safer", you permit that as an improvement, but not with the usual deadlines.

I have that too. Some work better in the steam/rice cooker, some are better microwaved (basically steamed inside).
Then a 90 day cease and desist works just as well.
Three years is for wimps who have bad supply chains.

I use light virgin olive oil to cook rice and most dishes. Almost anything except baking can be done with either water, soya sauce, and/or a good quality olive oil.
Veggies work best if steamed in a microwave, in terms of nutrients.

If you microwave your bacon, you get lots of grease which can be used for cooking fried foods.

Hmm, what kind of herbs ?
Depends on which state or province.
Walking is not one of the necessary things for robots to do.
Crawling more than suffices. In fact, having wheels is a feature, not a bug.
I mean, he won the election...
No, the SNP won it.
Just use spam terms in the body and it still can be received but the stupid software says it's not what it is.
Only non-techies think spies are good at what they do.
And, conversely, we have always known the A-10 Warthog is a good plane.
Time to call it a day.
About time someone realized what needs to be done.
Next up: Bank Execs.
High speed rail doesn't make much sense when you have continuous density, but does make sense when you have dense cities every 1-3 hours drive apart.
Which is the I-5 corridor.
It takes time to get the trains up to speed. Japan uses them for the same reason.
Um, 25 percent of the US population lives within 100 miles of the I-5 highway corridor in the West.
I think it does make sense. Just not in the tax-subsidized empty states.
As we all know, humans are not capable of traveling at speeds faster than 30 mph. It was common knowledge in the 18th Century.
Obviously hyperloops can't work either.
Now burn a Confederate flag to celebrate and let's move on.
In case you wondered.
RTFM. Try looking at pictures of any US city 100 years ago.
What do you see?
That's right. Bikes and streetcars.
No cars.
Not here. Advanced tech cities are ditching cars. Cars are a 19th Century solution using an outmoded power source.
If people know there is an 80 percent chance they will be stopped, forced to park their car, and not able to use that car for three days (72 hours), or any other car, they will stop doing certain risky things.

And drones have shiny things and are viewed as intruders.
Think about that.
It's illegal to fly drones in much of my state, so be advised.
Agreed.
So say all Canadians.

Inadequate testing? They've been not using transfats in the EU for DECADES.
Look, I get that you think testing only exists in the US, but that has never been true.

Both keep the flavor in.
No, I understand completely. In fact, I've been a direct shareholder of many food companies and truck and rail and shipping companies.
Fun fact: Most US firms that say they "can't develop recipes" own firms that use non-transfat recipes for other markets.
They just want you to believe it's harder than it is.

It's like putting lead on your noodles. Bad for Nestle in India, bad for America.
