New packaging and packaging materials seem imminent. New nonnutritive sweeteners promise increased shelf life and improved taste for a calorie conscious society. Easter, more efficient production methods and equipment are being developed every day. Soft drink manufacturers wkl continue to expand markets overseas and attempt to increase per capital consumption in existing markets. 

HoUow mol ding as the name implies is a molded product with a hoUow center such as Easter eggs, bunny rabbits, and Santa Claus. The molds used in hoUow mol ding are divided in two halves and connected by a hinge. Chocolate is deposited into one half of the mold. The mold is then closed and rotated so that the Uquid chocolate completely coats the inside surface of the mold. After cooling the molds are opened and the piece removed. 

The challenges for visualization are at least twofold. Easter graphics hardware will be required to display and manipulate more complex data displays. More importantly, the human effort required to develop visualization systems must be reduced. It is the realm of the expert programmer to implement a usable visualization system. General purpose tools that allow the nonexpert to import data in different formats into robust visualization systems are just beginning to appear.

In the twentieth century, Jell-O found its way into salads, song ( A Fine Romance from the Rogers and Astaire musical Swing Time in 1936— You take romance, I ll take Jell-O ), academic conferences (the Smithsonian Institution s 1991 symposium on Jell-O included a session on Jell-O wrestling) and outer space. Dr. Shannon W. Lucid, an American mother of three, served Jell-O to Russian astronauts on the Mir Station in 1996 on Easter Sunday. 

Rapamycin is a macrocyclic lactone produced by Streptomyces hygroscopious. This bacterium was originally cultured from a soil sample collected on Easter Island (known locally as Rapa Nui hence the name rapamycin). Parenthetically, rapamycin shares an interesting mode of action with two other antifungal and immunosuppressive compounds, FK506and cyclosporin A. Inside cells, rapamycin first binds to FKBP12, a small protein receptor known as an immunophilin. FKBP12 is not an essential protein but is an important cofactor required for rapamycin to bind and inhibit TOR.

The tropical regions of both of the hemispheres troposphere exhibit easterly flow called the trade winds. Finally the jet stream -sometimes described as a river of air - flows at mid-latitude of both hemispheres with velocities of 25 to 50 m/sec from west to east, often carrying material completely around the Earth at its altitude close to the tropopause. It is in this flow that balloonists attempt to circle the globe.

Of course, he said, as he pulled up in front of the station and tugged on the hand brake. Then we got out and he lifted my suitcases from the backseat for me. Well, Una my dear, have a good term and we ll see you at Easter. ... 

Nursing alcohol lamps and charcoal fires in his tiny home laboratory during the Easter vacation of 1856, a teenager slowly teased out the constituents of a black and tarry goo. Working nights, weekends, and holidays on chemistry, he was searching for a test-tube substitute for quinine, the antimalaria drug derived from plants. The black precipitate he had made was obviously not quinine, but the youth was well trained in chemistry, so he did not throw it out. Instead, he treated it with alcohol, and a fabulously intense purple appeared. Then he tested the purple on a piece of silk. 

Recognizing Perkin s ability and ambition, Hofmann made Perkin his research and staff assistant. The youth had his own ideas about how to make quinine, but his work for Hofmann left him little time at school to pursue them. So, over Easter vacation in 1856, Perkin decided to work on the problem at home.
