Taylor Swift gladly bears tabloid glare for success
Posted: at 9:48 am
On Taylor Swift's new album, "Red," there's a song where the 22-year-old superstar sings about a fictional one: a famous singer who spends years under the glare of the spotlight, then ditches her uncomfortable fame for a life of solitude.
It sounds like Swift might be mapping out her eventual exit plan on "The Lucky One," which depicts the troubling side of celebrity: tabloids, paparazzi, living life in a bubble. It's certainly a scenario Swift can relate to: She's become a fixture in the gossip pages, especially with her penchant for famous boyfriends, including her latest, Conor Kennedy of the storied political clan. (They reportedly recently broke up.)
But if "Lucky One" has a plotline that Swift would eventually like to live out, for now, it's just a daydream: Swift has come to embrace her larger-than-life status -- and all the headaches that come with it.
"There's a lot of trade-offs. There's the microscope that's always on you. The camera flashes, the fear that something you say will be taken the wrong way and you'll let your fans down. There's the fear that you'll be walking down the street and your skirt will blow up and you'll be in the news for three months," says Swift, sitting at the dining room table in her apartment in Nashville, dressed in a playful black shirt decorated with dogs and an appropriate red skirt, her house decorated with a whimsical flair, including mismatched chairs, a small pond in the living room and
As she rattles off a few more of the negatives of being in the limelight, she adds: "You're scared of a lot of things for a lot of the time, but the trade-off of being able to get on a big stage and sing your songs -- it's worth it."
Swift is perhaps on the biggest stage of her young career with the release of "Red." She's already scored her first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with the Max Martin/Shellback-produced "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." The song is still in the top 10, and has company with her new song, "I Knew You Were Trouble," which takes the country star into further pop territory with its use of auto-tune and dance synths. With 1.21 million copies sold, "Red" charted the best first-week sales of a CD in more than a decade.
While "Red" still has plenty of tunes that cater to her country fan base, as Swift was crafting the album, she was determined to "step outside my comfort zone."
"On my fourth album, I wanted to do something that wasn't what I've done for the first three," she says.
Scott Borchetta, head of Big Machine Records, has worked with Swift since she was a teenager and watched her grow from a promising young country ingenue to one of music's best-selling artists. As she worked on the follow-up to 2010's "Speak Now" -- which sold a million copies in its first week, netted her multiple awards and was the anchor for her sold-out world tour -- he noticed she was exploring other sounds not usually heard on country radio. He encouraged her to seek out producers like Martin, best known for crafting hits for Britney Spears, Pink and Kelly Clarkson.
"If you're going to write a country song, run toward country. If you're going to write a pop song, write and produce it with the guys who are the best and biggest, if that's what it feels like," he said.

Campaigns using personal touch in final days
Posted: at 9:48 am
In what is expected to be a close race for the White House, thousands of volunteers on either side of the ideological spectrum are calling strangers, handing out leaflets and knocking on doors in the final days of a long election campaign.
Millions of Ohioans have reached the breaking point with the blizzard of political commercials on their televisions. But aides for Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are convinced the personal touch will be the deal-maker. In a race where every vote matters, the ground game can make or break each candidates chance of winning.
It makes it personal and cuts through all the millions of dollars being spent on TV, said Aaron Pickrell, a senior adviser to the Obama campaign and the political operative who helped devise Obamas highly praised ground game in Ohio in 2008. Its the ability to deliver the presidents message directly to someone.
Scott Jennings, Romneys state director, said the former Massachusetts governors campaign has focused on knocking on doors 2.2 million as of last week.
Weve got so many volunteers, thousands of people in all 88 counties knocking on doors, making calls and getting the word out about the election, Jennings said. When you put these streams together, it makes for a large amount of momentum in the state for the Romney/Ryan ticket.
Mike Dobyns, 61, a retired health care worker, spent Wednesday in a corner of the Clark County Republican headquarters, his ear pressed to the phone as Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Gov. John Kasich fired up the GOP faithful across the room.
A box nearby fed phone line numbers to Dobyns, and when someone answered he pressed success.
Successes were few and far between, however. Dobyns made 75 calls without anyone answering. It feels like I cant do a lot, he said, nevertheless adding, I kind of like doing it.
In northern Ohio, Allison ODonnell, 28, of Euclid spent Wednesday on her cell phone, dialing people she has never met.
Im a volunteer with President Obamas re-election campaign in Euclid, she would say. How are you today? Good. As you know the election is less than a week away and we need all the help we can get. So I was just wondering if you could give a few hours to volunteer on Election Day to make sure we get out the vote for Obama.

South Texas vineyards starting to sip at success
Posted: at 9:48 am
MISSION - The Rio Grande Valley, best known for grapefruit, palm trees and winter Texans, is quietly adding an intoxicating facet to its image: winemaking.
Through research over the last 15 years at Rio Farms Inc. and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and the work of determined growers like Jorge Jaber, wine-grape production is mushrooming in a region where many once thought it impossible.
Wine grapes, particularly such European varieties as chardonnay, merlot and cabernet sauvignon, typically need a more moderate climate than the Texas-Mexico border can boast. They also are partial to areas that cool off in the evening and have timely rains.
Between that and the prevalence of a bacterial blights like Pierce's disease and cotton root rot, the consensus has been that the Valley could not grow grapes for commercial wine production until a new variety Blanc Du Bois, which was released to growers in 1987, and an older variety, Black Spanish or Lenoir, proved their ability to coexist with Pierce's disease.
'Great potential'
No one is saying Texas' Valley will be the next Napa Valley, but Jaber's winery, Jaber Estate Winery, already is producing wine from grapes grown on site, and more wineries are planned.
"I think there's great potential," said Fritz Westover, a viticulture program specialist with the extension service who expects continued growth in the sector.
Wine-grape growing in the area can be traced back to an order of nuns that made wine for Catholic services in the mid-19th century and continued on and off through the 20th century - but never at the volume or with the quality now believed possible.
"We can grow grapes at comparable tonnages to other areas. The question was, can you make good wine from those grapes?" said Andy Scott, research director at Rio Farms, a private research center that has helped many of the area's 15 or so growers get started.
Some Valley farmers grow grapes and make wine for personal consumption and gifts. Others grow grapes and ship them to wineries for production. Jaber, at 80, is considered the first in the area to grow grapes and convert that fruit himself into wine for commercial consumption.

Its process visualization, data acquisition and supervisory control provide a solid and reliable data foundation for digitized production management.
Maintain Product Safety and Protect Brand Quality
Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) is now a very common practice in many cosmetics and personal care products plants; replacing the long and tedious process of manual strip down, cleaning, and rebuilding of process systems. The production of high quality cosmetics and personal care products using highly efficient operating techniques requires effective and careful cleaning of equipment. The primary commercial advantage of CIP is the substantial reduction in production downtime, and the ability to utilize more aggressive cleaning chemicals in a contained environment, normally not safely handled with manual cleaning method. The design of the process plant must conform to all documented hygienic design criteria as a pre-requisite to utilizing CIP, and these are extensively documented by the European Standard EN 1672-2.
