ALASKA DISTILLERY PRESENTS: ALASKA GIN

After a year and a half of working on the recipe, Alaska Distillery owners are happy to announce the arrival of their ultra premium Alaska Gin, which, they say, is an excellent companion to Alaska Distillery's line of Alaskan made spirits.  

"You will find our Gin is the perfect martini spirit without the overbearing pine needle taste that is prevalent in many Gin's."  

"Our Gin is subtle and smooth.  We think that it is the best Gin on the market.  Look for it shortly at your favorite restaurant or liquor store."

AT&T Completes 100-Gigabit Ethernet Field Trial

Successful Trial Advances Development of Next-Generation IP Backbone Technology

Dallas, Texas, March 9, 2010
AT&T* today announced the successful completion of a live network environment field trial of 100-Gigabit backbone network technology. The trial advances development of the next generation of backbone network technology that will support growing volumes of wireless and wired Internet and data traffic in the years to come.

During the trial, AT&T field tested the new Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System, conducting a standards-ready, single-flow, 100-Gigabit technology trial in a live network environment. For this test, AT&T used Opnext 100 Gigabit CFP client side modules and Ixia's "K2" 100 Gigabit traffic generator and analyzer.

AT&T's trial also demonstrated a single-carrier 100-Gigabit transmission with real-time coherent processing on a 900-kilometer deployed ultra long-haul transport link between Louisiana and Florida using Opnext optical equipment.

The successful field trial is the latest example of AT&T innovation in advanced IP networking technology. AT&T in 2008 completed the world's largest deployment of current industry-standard 40-Gigabit network technology in its U.S. IP backbone network. And in 2008 and 2009, the company led teams that completed two lab trials of 100 Gigabit technology that set new records for bandwidth transmission. The 100-Gigabit technology is expected to be ready for commercial deployment over the next few years.

"This successful field trial is a key milestone in our ongoing effort to deliver the industry's most advanced and capable IP backbone network," said John Donovan, AT&T's Chief Technology Officer. "The AT&T IP backbone network today carries nearly 19 petabytes of traffic on an average business day, supporting our wireless, wired and enterprise customers' ever-growing demand for wireless and wired broadband applications. Research and development milestones like our 100-Gigabit trials help to ensure that the AT&T network is always ready to meet our customers' needs."

The recently completed 100 Gigabit field trial marks several notable industry achievements, including:

• Successful single-carrier 100-Gigabit transmission with real-time coherent processing.
• Demonstration of 100-Gigabit Ethernet single-flow router capacity.
• Field demonstration of 100-Gigabit technology with a standards-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 single-mode MSA interface.
• Field demonstration of a 100-Gigabit traffic generator.

Full Circle Farm Launches Home Delivery Service

Pioneering Food Company Expands “Farm-to-Table” Business To Deliver Organic Produce and Artisan Goods Straight To Consumers’ Doorsteps

CARNATION, WA (March 9, 2010) – Full Circle Farm, a leading organic produce and artisan food provider, today announced the launch of its home delivery service – a move that will make fresh, organic produce more accessible to thousands of consumers throughout Anchorage.

“We recognize our customers’ increasing desire to be directly connected to the people who produce their food, to have variety and choice, and to have reliable and convenient options,” said Andrew Stout, Full Circle’s founder and owner. “Expanding our service offerings to include home delivery in and around Anchorage will make fresh, organic goods more accessible and convenient to customers with busy schedules.

Full Circle first began service in Anchorage in early 2006, providing customers with fresh organic produce at several convenient pick up locations throughout the city. With the addition of home delivery, Full Circle will now bring the same quality product direct to its customers’ doorstep, making it easier to experience the Good Food Life.

“In Alaska it can be challenging at times to find fresh, organic produce, especially during our winters. With Full Circle Farm’s new home delivery service many people won’t have to venture far for nutritious food,” states Bob McCarney, Alaska Territory Manager for Full Circle Farm. “Full Circle provides a wide selection of organic produce so Alaskans can enjoy a full spectrum of seasonal fruit and vegetables year-round. With Full Circle’s home delivery, organic produce is literally at your doorstep for the first time in Anchorage.”

Community involvement has always been central to Full Circle’s mission.  The farm makes regular donations of fresh produce to schools, sponsors local events, and helps those in need through support of local food banks. It was the community connections that helped form the relationship with AD Farm in Palmer who provided organic Alaskan Grown produce for our Anchorage customers.  Full Circle is excited to offer more products made in Alaska and is actively seeking partners.

Full Circle subscribers in Anchorage can now schedule weekly or every-other week deliveries directly to their home.  Through the Full Circle website (www.fullcirclefarm.com <http://www.fullcirclefarm.com> ) customers are provided with a selection of fresh produce items that they can accept as is, or customize to their specific preferences. Additionally, customers can add organic and artisan grocery items from partners such as The Essential Baking Company, Mt. Townsend Creamery, Quillisascut Cheese Company, Theo Chocolate Company, Grounds for Change (coffee), Choice Organic Teas, Blue Bird Grains and Moon Valley Honey

Full Circle works with a variety of businesses and more than 30 farms to deliver farm values in a box. Full Circle and its partners share a commitment to nutritious food, a healthy environment and sustainable communities. With the addition of home delivery service, the company plans to deepen its relationship with its partners across the region and around the world -- fostering sustainable business practices and customer satisfaction.

About Full Circle Farm

Established in 1996 by Andrew Stout and Wendy Munroe, Full Circle Farm is a fast-growing Pacific Northwest company and national leader of the good food movement.  Full Circle provides healthy and organically grown food -- including growing more than 125 varieties of certified organic, fruits, vegetables and herbs -- to a broad base of retail and commercial customers throughout Western Washington and across Alaska.
