Robert Gravani, PhD, professor emeritus, Cornell University, and former Board President of IFT, served as publication Task Force Chair. “With the increase in the size, scope, and complexity of the global food supply chain, the ability to track and trace foods and ingredients through the system quickly and efficiently is of paramount importance,” said Gravani. “It is a perfect time for all supply chain partners to implement a well-organized, systematic, and interoperable end-to-end traceability system to improve food safety, quality, national origin, authenticity, and sustainability.”
Bryan Hitchcock, Chief Science and Technology Officer for IFT, added: “The effectiveness of any traceability system is based on the quality of data collected, and emerging tools and technologies offer significant opportunity to improve that digital data and help create a safer food supply. Everyone from consumers and food producers to distributors, retailers, and food safety regulators have been demanding improved traceability for years and now, through scientific and technological advancements, food traceability can become a reality.”
Gravani will discuss the issue paper and its impact on the food supply chain during a virtual webinar on Thursday, October 5, from 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. CDT (1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. EDT). Learn more or register here.

The Libertarian Party of Maine strives to give voters more electoral choices. Mapstead saw this opportunity for the voters of Maine early on and is thrilled to put boots on the ground there to seize this moment, advance the Party’s mission, and expand the options available not only to Mainers, but to all Americans.
When asked why he’s coming to Maine, Lars declares, “Every state where we knock down the rigged ballot access rules is another nail in the coffin of this corrupt system. Maine is the front line in this battle for a fairer, freer America. Let’s make some noise and unrig the system!”
The Mapstead campaign is calling on his supporters and all New Englanders who are ready to bring about real political change to show up on October 7th at 10:45am and October 8th at 11:00am in Portland’s Lincoln Park. Lars is inviting other Libertarian candidates to come out to support this very important petition drive, as well. “Liberty can’t wait, and neither should we!” Lars urges.
Mapstead is running for President to promote term limits, taxation reform, and ranked choicevoting. A self-made success, Lars Mapstead has established multiple thriving internet-based companies and is a true champion of individual liberty. He promotes the importance of limited government and is dedicated to freeing Americans from the shackles of bureaucratic oppression and excessive taxation.

Real-time tracking, biometrics, and air-to-ground communication redefined safety standards during 38,000 ft. jump to raise funds for children of fallen warriors
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Today, Somewear Labs, the technology company enabling critical communications for defense, public safety, and commercial teams, announced its participation in the Alpha 5 Project, a mission to set a new world record for the highest HALO (high altitude, low opening) formation skydive and raise $1 million for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF). Somewear Labs partnered with Operator Solutions, a leading provider of specialized search and rescue solutions and the team behind the Alpha 5 Project, to provide critical and reliable communication solutions to ensure the health and safety of the jumpers during this remarkable mission. The record-setting jump took place on Thursday, September 28, 2023 at The New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell, NM. The five participating jumpers included four current and former U.S. Air Force Special Warfare Pararescue Specialists (PJs) and entrepreneur, adventurist, and philanthropist Larry Connor.
To break the existing unofficial world record for the highest HALO formation skydive, the five jumpers ascended to an altitude of 38,000 feet in a specially designed hot air balloon. Accompanied by a balloon pilot and O2 Tech, the jumpers followed HALO safety protocols, wearing full oxygen equipment and human-performance sensors powered by Somewear. From there, the jumpers exited the balloon and linked arms in a five-person formation before safely separating and landing. A representative from Guinness World Records was present to assess and validate the record-setting achievement.
“We are honored to have participated in this extraordinary, world record-setting event,” said James Kubik, Co-Founder and CEO at Somewear Labs. “Somewear’s platform is engineered to maximize safety and guarantee resilient and reliable communications in any environment. The opportunity to marry these capabilities with efforts to raise awareness for an incredible organization and honor America’s finest is not something we take lightly.”
During dynamic operations such as these, real-time communication and coordination is paramount in ensuring the health and safety of those involved. When traditional networks are lost, communication barriers and unreliable systems put teams at risk. For the Alpha 5 Project, the jumpers’ safety was the top priority. The record-breaking mission presented a number of challenges, including pinpointing the position of the balloon and jumpers as they climbed in altitude and monitoring the jumpers’ physiological state during ascent and descent. The Somewear platform, paired with human-performance sensors, allowed ground teams to monitor the jumpers in real-time, relay biometrics of each individual, and provide air-to-ground communication, maximizing both jumper safety and accountability.
Somewear’s software-based critical communications platform provided an elevated level of safety, accountability, and awareness for the Alpha 5 Project team. By integrating body-worn sensors with Somewear’s satellite-based solution, the ground team was able to monitor the jumpers’ heart rates, body temperatures, respiratory rates, and body postures. Reliable, real-time tracking also communicated the balloon’s position and the jumpers’ exit from the balloon, then confirmed all parachutes were successfully deployed. Additionally, the ability to relay both position and vitals allowed the ground force to proactively determine where the jumpers would land to facilitate recovery.
“The Somewear Labs technology played an integral part in ensuring jumper safety throughout the entire operation,” said Brandon Daugherty, Founder and CEO of Operator Solutions and A5 Project Lead. “We are grateful for the dedication and participation of everyone involved in this project. It is together that we can make a significant impact on the lives of our country’s heroes and ensure a bright future for their children.”
Somewear’s mission is to save lives by enabling critical communications for the world’s most important organizations. For more information, please visit somewearlabs.com. Learn more about SOWF and donate at https://specialops.org/alpha5/.
