Six Sigma for Small Business
It is not surprising that some people may perceive Six Sigma as being only for large corporations. Major corporations such as Allied Signal, Black & Decker, Dow Chemical, Dupont, Federal Express, General Electric, Johnson and Johnson, Kodak, Motorola, Sony, and Toshiba have all rolled out Six Sigma efforts and achieved outstanding results. Yet, it is incorrect to think that Six Sigma process improvement results can only be achieved by huge organizations. Small businesses can also succeed in implementing Six Sigma and reap the process improvement benefits that Six Sigma provides.Certainly, there are factors that can be disadvantageous for implementing Six Sigma in a small business rather than a large business, such as lack of resources and expertise in change initiatives. However, there are also characteristics inherent in small businesses that can speed up the effective implementation of Six Sigma more than in large businesses, such as flexible process flows, a shorter decision-making...

Bread - So Much a Part of Life
In the olden days, bread baking was a daily routine. Many times a loaf of warm, fresh from the oven bread, with a topping of fresh-churned butter was a meal - in times of hardship, in times of scarcity. Today, the food industry provides a mind-boggling array of bread products - your choice, to mix and match to your heart's content. They did, however, with all the magic of science, leave out "just a little". That little is the aroma or scent of fresh-baking bread, a hint of spice, and the texture of kneaded dough that provided not only sustenance but a form of "therapy" for the baker.
It wouldn't take much to take a step back in time and give your family and friends that old-fashioned, yet timely, welcoming aroma that just brings them to the kitchen, awakens even the most sluggish appetite, and the smiles - well, that is the true "icing" on the bread. The convenience of electric mixers with dough hooks and even bread machiens, frozen loaves of bread that just need to have that...

On Exhibition: Biocide That Improves Produce Freshness and Shelf Life at PMA Fresh Summit Tradeshow
ATLANTA, GA (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) NOVEMBER 4, 2005 ?- Today at the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit tradeshow, Selective Micro Technologies will showcase the extraordinary effects of the company's Selectrocide chlorine dioxide biocide on produce.
Because of its selectivity as an oxidizer and its efficacy at low concentrations, chlorine dioxide is one of the most effective inhibitors of spoilage microorganisms, yeast and mold, all of which cause fruits and vegetables to decay during shipping, on store shelves and in customer possession.
Before the introduction of Selectrocide, 99.99% pure chlorine dioxide has not been available to food growers and processors at the point of use.
Background Information Chlorine Dioxide and Selectrocide:Chlorine dioxide is effective at low concentrations across a wide range of pH (roughly 4 to 10), and, because it is a gas in its natural state, dissipates...
