I just received a promotion from an Assistant Scientist to an Associate Scientist in Corporate Research & Development with the Coca-Cola Company in Atlanta, GA. My Beta fish, Trey, has recently died. I had a nice ceremony for him, before I flushed him into the Chattahoochee River.

My former employer US Smokeless Tobacco (the makers of Skoal, Copenhagen, and Chateau St. Michelle wine) in Nashville, TN was recently purchased by Philip Morris USA. In August our R&D department was relocated to their Richmond, VA headquarters. I am currently an Associate Research Scientist, Microbiologist in their Center for Research and Technology. I retained my Titans Season Tickets anyway! Go VOLS & Titans. Fan for life!

So we're in Italy now, and we've started a blog for everyone to keep up with us! There's so much great stuff here, it's almost impossible to cover it all. For the food science students, you HAVE to take a trip to Italy at some point! It's amazing, and a definite learning experience. For anyone else, it is an awesome place, and well worth your time. Check out our blog, as I'll be keeping that up to date better than here.
