LONDON (Reuters) - Scientists have developed a non-stick chewing gum that can be easily removed from pavements, shoes and clothes.
The new gum, the result of polymer research at the University of Bristol, could be launched commercially in 2008, its backers said on Friday.
"The advantage of our Clean Gum is that it has a great taste, it is easy to remove and has the potential to be environmentally degradable," said Terence Cosgrove, a professor of chemistry who helped found a company called Revolymer to commercialise the technology.
Today's chewing gums are made from synthetic latex, which is resistant to the weather and is strongly adhesive. The new gum adds a special polymer to modify its properties, making it far less sticky.
In two street trials, leading commercial gums remained stuck to the pavement three out or four times, while Clean Gum came away naturally within 24 hours in all cases, Revolymer said.


If you ask me that's a worth while invention. There's nothing worse than gum stuck to the bottomof a shoe, desk, or hair. Ahha... we out smarted some nasty/ lasy/ bad mannered people... BRILLANT!

GO BUCS!!!!!
I just wanted to give a little shout out to my home team....They played awesome today!!!!! And hopefully it continues this way... cause winning is more fun than losing.

Another lovely weekend off....
It's very nice to have the weekend off, since i have worked so many. Saturday morning I got early and went shopping with my lil' sis Karen. I was showered and dressed by 1o:00 (really)and on the road around 11:00. We went down to the outlet mall in St. Augustine and I found a few good deals I couldn't resist. In the mean while the boys went golfing and had a bunch of fun.
When we got back to the apartment, the boys were watching the boob tube relaxing. Then the Nichs headed off to church because they were going to the Jags Game Today (Sunday). Greg and I relaxed a little more, then headed over to Tricks Place for glass of wine before dinner. Then it was off to a really good Brazilian restaurant for dinner. Its great you start off with a salad bar then the fun begins. There are these guys that go table to table with large pieces of different meats on these longs skewers and cut it for each person and each table. Yes this is a happy place to eat. Lots of chit chat and food... and good beverages. After that we walked down to an Irish pub and had a few beverages (well that's what you are supposed to do there). Headed back home... Where Trick and I did a few shots and laughed as Greg feel asleep an the couch.

Sun. was relaxing...Greg headed to the west coast to do orientation for his new job.... If you haven't heard yet we will be relocating back to the west coast of fl. at the end of this month. I went over Bridget and Mike for football, food, and fun. Everyone is well over there.
Back to work tomorrow....but that's OK my last day is the 26 of September!!!!

How we spend our nights...

Yesterday(Monday): Well I was off of work so i did the usual chores... So much excitement! Nothing like laundry and cleaning and a little boob tube. Thank goodness that was not the high light of my day...sigh.... Greg came home stop by the store and picked up some subs, I was not in the mood for cooking. We spent some time chit chatting, which i always enjoy. I know what your saying, what's so great about all that. Later around 9:30 Are buddy Patrick(A.K.A. Trick) came buy to hang out and share a delicious frozen pizza. There's always plenty of laughter... and booze too!!! No we did not do pie and beer, that's what most would expect. Not us, we tend to be a little more adventurous, maybe that's not even the right word? Drank some water and popped open a fantastic bottle of cognac. We had to keep an eye on Trick, because he wanted looked like he wanted to take the bottle with him. We enjoyed sipping it very much, nothing like good company and fine spirits!!!!! The night ended with a smile from all!!!!!

Today(Tuesday): Went to work like usual, and received a call from the Mister saying he accepted a job offer in the Tampa area..... Were coming home....! How exciting for us, it's been a very long road. Just a reminder to those in Jacksonville, just because were moving doesn't mean will stop bugging U!!!! The Mister has informed most everyone, and tomorrow I'm putting my 2 weeks notice in. After work we Hit up a Mexican restaurant for some chimi's ...yummolah!!! Then Trick invited us buy to congratulate Greg on his new job. Yes and the whole champagne toast and all.
And a few other drinks..some snacks.....and it's amazing the ideas we come up with. Well it's REALLY late I need to hit the hay...

A nice day off.....it went like this...
Sitting on the couch at noon thirty sipping a coffee and enjoying some delicious fruit is the way i like to start off my day. Then slowing moving onto a load of laundry..and tidying the kitchen, not so fun but chores are inevitable. Time for the second cup of coffee, i can fell the energy start to build. Or maybe be it's really the caffeine? Yeah it's the caffeine... no joke.... but it seems to do the trick. Moving on with my day i watched some pbs show it was good! i learned about digestive disorders and how to really fix them naturally, it all made sense to me. I still don't understand...why people spend so much time eating so much food that messes them up...
moving on
I talked on the phone to my Mom, and my older sister, i know they miss me. I would miss me too!!! I'm a really fun and cool person to be around. I know you are all are agreeing with me, of course. Then the mister and I went up Casa de Nich's, and all is well there. They went to the gym and the Mister and I worked on his car. He has sycamore tree stains on his car paint. They look like little orange spots, that are hard as hell to remove. We found a new technique, it's called claying. You rub a special piece of clay over the paint, with this spray stuff. it works very slowly... we will have do it a few more time...but oh well.If you have any brillant ideas let us know...

Then Dinner and a movie that was quite silly Larrry the Cable guy Heath Inspector , a full day for sure.. i know how to pack it in...Back to work tomorrow ...yuck!

The Life of a chef….thoughts on food…

I love food don’t get me wrong, but day after day there are many times when I don’t want to eat any of it. I can be soo hungry at times, I start to rack my brains out trying to figure out what I want. I don’t want any of it…yuck. That was today, maybe I’m just tired? Or just a little bit crazy. Right now I’m hungry, but I can’t think of one thing I would want. Not even chips or chocolate…oh stop the insanity!!!! By the way I'm still hungry....

On the lighter side...

It was a hard for me to choose....since i'm still hungry... I picked the brownie how 'bout you?

So anyone read anything interesting Lately??????

Well, I finished the last Harry Potter book a couple of weeks ago... what next? i had been contemplating what I should or would like to read next...hmmm. then I thought about it more, and more, and more...then i came to a conclusion. I have never read the bible from cover to cover, so that is my final decision. So far so good.... I'm reading about the birth of Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah. Genesis 21. I'm taking time to read all the foot notes, and I had never done that before..it helps a lot... along with the maps and stuff, too! I'm working wisdom, and knowledge. I really find the choice of names interesting... since they all have symbolic meanings. Genesis as many of you know explains how the earth is populated, who came from who, and who doesn't get along... and so on... if you have some time i invite you to dive right in there's plenty of food for your soul.


What is one to do when Hubby is out of town????

It does get boring at night after work....when the house is empty. I'm not really into going out after work to often. But i do enjoy sleeping in the middle of the bed. It's so very comfy to have that extra pillow, not to mention the alarm is closer for me to hit snooze a few times.... no snoring is very cherry too! Don't get me wrong.. I do miss him of course. So what have I been doing besides reading my bible, not much...laundry, cleaning out the nasty fridge, and blaring music that the mister isn't to keen on! I took a nice bubble bath while one our house pets, ie lizards watched. He looked rather bored too! Well I better get to bed, because it is way to late as usual. Boy what an exciting Day i can hardly sit still!!!
