Bees in America: How the Honey Bee Shaped a Nation List Price: $50.00 Sale Price: $19.77  |
|
" Honey bees--and the qualities associated with them--have quietly influenced American values for four centuries. During every major period in the country's history, bees and beekeepers have represented order and stability in a country without a national religion, political party, or language. Bees in America is an enlightening cultural history of bees and beekeeping in the United States. Tammy Horn, herself a beekeeper, offers a varied social and technological history from the colonial period, when the British first introduced bees to the New World, to the present, when bees are being used by the American military to detect bombs. Early European colonists introduced bees to the New World as part of an agrarian philosophy borrowed from the Greeks and Romans. Their legacy was intended to provide sustenance and a livelihood for immigrants in search of new opportunities, and the honey bee became a sign of colonization, alerting Native Americans to settlers' westward advance. Colonists imagined their own endeavors in terms of bees' hallmark traits of industry and thrift and the image of the busy and growing hive soon shaped American ideals about work, family, community, and leisure. The image of the hive continued to be popular in the eighteenth century, symbolizing a society working together for the common good and reflecting Enlightenment principles of order and balance. Less than a half-century later, Mormons settling Utah (where the bee is the state symbol) adopted the hive as a metaphor for their protected and close-knit culture that revolved around industry, harmony, frugality, and cooperation. In the Great Depression, beehives provided food and bartering goods for many farm families, and during World War II, the War Food Administration urged beekeepers to conserve every ounce of beeswax their bees provided, as more than a million pounds a year were being used in the manufacture of war products ranging from waterproofing products to tape. The bee remains a bellwether in modern America. Like so many other insects and animals, the bee population was decimated by the growing use of chemical pesticides in the 1970s. Nevertheless, beekeeping has experienced a revival as natural products containing honey and beeswax have increased the visibility and desirability of the honey bee. Still a powerful representation of success, the industrious honey bee continues to serve both as a source of income and a metaphor for globalization as America emerges as a leader in the Information Age. |
A Cool Software for Extraction, Harvesting, Mining and Spidering Web Data
Â
ListDNA, Division of VERTX SYSTEMS, LLC today announced the release of ListDNA software utility to help you build your own marketing lists from the web.
There are few tools on the web which allows individuals and small business owners to build and generate your own unique marketing lists with e-mail, phone, fax and urls all included – easily. Sure you can buy all types of lists for $300+, and we went down this path.
We purchased an e-mail list for $1000/- and they would e-mail our product and service to 1MM opt-in e-mail users (not spam). Do you know our return on investment - $0.00 big ZERO!! Why?
The Company we bought the list from did do the work, they did send out 1MM e-mails but they did not bother to tell us that all of these e-mail users were outside USA, outside our demographics based on our target.
After exploring many solutions it was concluded that ListDNA offered the best options to empower the end user to extract and build their own custom lists from the web. Clearly there are limitations because the product can not and will not extract data from phone directory listings such as BigYellow.com or business social networks such as Linkedin.com. The technology can not extract data from java controls, .net controls which are set on pages. Therefore, a consumer of this product maybe able to view the information on the web and/or print them but ListDNA and/other competing products can not extract this data. However, if ListDNA.com can be customized to support such operations upon specific customer requests – please contact management for such discussions.
ListDNA can run for days and ongoing to continue custom list building as required and specified by the consumer of this product. There are no limits and a free trial is provided for consumer use to test the results. Like most marketing lists, the data upon extraction needs to be saved, sorted and messaged to ensure the information will be valuable to the marketer.
Additionally, ListDNA.com and the management of VERTX SYSTEMS, LLC subscribes to the “DO NOT SPAM†policies, therefore, we recommend you read, review and follow such internet policies. Please ensure that if you leverage our product to build up e-mail or snail mail lists and use it to market, you provide options to the receiver of such mail the opportunity to remove themselves from your list.
