I looked at a can of STAGG© chili today and decided to find out where it came from. This is what I found.

Hormel Foods Corporation is a food company based in southeastern Minnesota (Mower County), perhaps best known as the producer of Spam luncheon meat. The company was founded as George A. Hormel & Company in Austin, Minnesota, U.S., by George A. Hormel in 1891. The company changed its name to Hormel Foods Corporation 102 years later in 1993. Hormel sells food under many brands, some of which include the Chi-Chi's, Dinty Moore, Farmer John, Jennie-O, Lloyd's, Spam and Stagg brands, as well as under its own name. The company is listed on the Fortune 500.
In 2006, Hormel Foods donated $5 million to The Hormel Institute, which dedicated a state-of-the-art expansion to their cancer research facility on October 3, 2008. The project renovated the former building (which was built in 1960) and added additional research facilities, including space to house the Blue Gene/L supercomputer.

Blue Gene

Blue Gene is a computer architecture project designed to produce several supercomputers, designed to reach operating speeds in the PFLOPS (petaFLOPS) range, and currently reaching sustained speeds of nearly 500 TFLOPS (teraFLOPS). It is a cooperative project among IBM (particularly IBM Rochester and the Thomas J. Watson Research Center), the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the United States Department of Energy (which is partially funding the project), and academia. There are four Blue Gene projects in development: Blue Gene/L, Blue Gene/C, Blue Gene/P, and Blue Gene/Q.

The project was awarded the National Medal of Technology and Innovation by U.S. President Barack Obama on September 18, 2009. The president bestowed the award on October 7, 2009.

On September 29, 2004, IBM announced that a Blue Gene/L prototype at IBM Rochester (Minnesota) had overtaken NEC's Earth Simulator as the fastest computer in the world, with a speed of 36.01 TFLOPS on the Linpack benchmark, beating Earth Simulator's 35.86 TFLOPS.
A team from the IBM Almaden Research Center and the University of Nevada on April 27, 2007 ran an artificial neural network almost half as complex as the brain of a mouse for the equivalent of a second (the network was run at 1/10 of normal speed for 10 seconds).

Blue Gene/C (now renamed to Cyclops64) is a sister-project to Blue Gene/L. It is a massively parallel, supercomputer-on-a-chip cellular architecture. It was slated for release in early 2007 but has been delayed.

Cyclops64 is part of the Blue Gene effort, to produce the next several generations of supercomputers. The projects were started in response to the announced construction of the Earth Simulator.
Cyclops64 is a cooperative project between the United States Department of Energy (which is partially funding the project), the U.S. Department of Defense, industry (IBM in particular), and academia.

EARTH SIMULATOR

The Earth Simulator (ES) was the fastest supercomputer in the world from 2002 to 2004. The system was developed for JAXA, JAERI, and JAMSTEC in 1997 for running global climate models to evaluate the effects of global warming and problems in solid earth geophysics.

Earth Simulator was replaced by Earth Simulator 2 in March 2009

Blue Gene/Q
The last known supercomputer design in the Blue Gene series, Blue Gene/Q is aimed to reach 20 Petaflops in the 2011 time frame. It will continue to expand and enhance the Blue Gene/L and /P architectures with higher frequency at much improved performance per watt.
The archetypal Blue Gene/Q system called Sequoia will be installed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 2011 as a part of the Advanced Simulation and Computing Program running nuclear simulations and advanced scientific research. It will consist of 98,304 compute nodes comprising 1.6 million processor cores and 1.6 PB memory in 96 racks covering an area of about 3000 square feet, drawing 6 megawatts of power.

SEQUOIA

The Sequoia is a petascale Blue Gene/Q supercomputer being constructed by IBM for the National Nuclear Security Administration as part of the Advanced Simulation and Computing Program (ASC). It is scheduled to go online in 2011 at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. It was revealed in February 2009; the targeted performance of 20 petaflops was more than the combined performance of the top 500 supercomputers in the world, about 20 times faster than then reigning champion Roadrunner. It will also be twice as fast as Pleiades, a proposed supercomputer built by SGI at NASA Ames Research Center.

Dawn
IBM has also built a smaller prototype called "Dawn," capable of 500 teraflops, using the Blue Gene/P design, to evaluate the Sequoia design. This system was delivered in April 2009 and entered the Top500 list at 9th place in June 2009.

Purpose
Sequoia will be used primarily for nuclear simulations, replacing the current Blue Gene/L and ASC Purple supercomputers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Sequoia will also be available for scientific purposes like astronomy, energy, studying of the human genome, and climate change.

Pleiades (supercomputer)

Pleiades is a petascale supercomputer built by SGI at NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California. As of November 2009, it was the world's sixth fastest computer with a peak performance of more than 540 teraflops, but it was still in construction phase at that time. After further extensions, Pleiades is scheduled to reach 1,000 teraflops (1 petaflops) in 2009, and 10 petaflops in 2012.[1]

Pleiades (star cluster)

In astronomy, the Pleiades, or Seven Sisters (Messier object 45), is an open star cluster containing relatively young hot B-type stars located in the constellation of Taurus. It is among the nearest star clusters to Earth and is the cluster most obvious to the naked eye in the night sky. Pleiades has several meanings in different cultures and traditions.

Pleiadeans

Pleiadeans (also spelled Pleiadian or Plejaran) is the name given to what are said to be a group of extraterrestrials from the Pleiades star cluster in the constellation Taurus, approximately 400 light years from Earth. Some refer to them as Nordic aliens. Their home planet is said to be called Erra, and various descriptions of their appearance have been given by those who claim to have been in contact with them.
Contactees who claim to have been in contact with the Pleiadeans include Billy Meier and James Gilliland.

Pleiadeans first appeared in accounts given by contactee Billy Meier, a Swiss national who claimed they visited him several times, starting in the 1940s. According to Meier's accounts, the Pleiadeans (which he spelled Plejaran) originate from the planet Erra (which is supposedly located in an alternate dimension that is a fraction of a second ahead of ours) and are outwardly similar to humans. Meier said that he was contacted in person or via telepathy by Chris Taylor. During the 1970s, Meier produced a number of photographs that he said were of Pleiadean ships, as well as sketches that he said were of Pleiadeans themselves.[4][6] They have since been the subject of intense criticism from skeptics.
Meier's Pleiadeans were said to be spiritual and in touch with nature, and they became a component of the New Age movement during the 1970s.They were depicted as a peace-loving race of Space Brothers, said to be warning contactees that humanity was heading toward self destruction, and offering alternative philosophies to avert such an eventuality.
During the 1980s and early 1990s, accounts of Pleiadeans given by people other than Meier began to diverge from earlier New Age concepts. In these alternate accounts, the Pleiadeans were said to be one side in a cloak and dagger confrontation over the fate of humanity. Such accounts worked in a number of pre-existing urban legends and conspiracy theories, including the New World Order and Reptilians conspiracies, as well as variations on the Illuminati and CIA mind control conspiracies. These references were not found in Meier's original accounts. In some cases, such as claims made by self-professed medium Barbara Marciniak, accounts of contact with Pleiadeans were also intermixed with the millennium (now passed) and American end times philosophies.
