CPM Education Program proudly works to offer more and better math education to more students. For example if we compare 1/2 and 2/4, we would multiply 1/2 by 2/2 which would result in 2/4 so they are equivalent. To compare 1/2 and 3/7 we would multiply 1/2 by 3/3 to produce 3/6. Since 3/6 is not the same as 3/7, the fractions are not equivalent. Fractions equivalent to 1/2 are 2/4, 3/6, 4/8, 5/10, 6/12.

Moxifloxacin is used to treat different types of bacterial infections of the skin, sinuses, lungs, or stomach.

Fluoroquinolone antibiotics can cause serious or disabling side effects that may not be reversible. Moxifloxacin should be used only for infections that cannot be treated with a safer antibiotic.

Moxifloxacin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

Moxifloxacin can cause serious side effects, including tendon problems, nerve damage, serious mood or behavior changes, or low blood sugar.

Stop using moxifloxacin (oral/injection) and call your doctor at once if you have symptoms such as:headache, hunger, irritability, numbness, tingling, burning pain, confusion, agitation, paranoia, problems with memory or concentration, thoughts of suicide, or sudden pain or movement problems in any of your joints.

In rare cases, moxifloxacin may cause damage to your aorta, which could lead to dangerous bleeding or death. Get emergency medical help if you have severe and constant pain in your chest, stomach, or back.

Before taking this medicine

You should not use this medicine if you are allergic to moxifloxacin or other fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, gemifloxacin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin, norfloxacin, and others).

Moxifloxacin may cause swelling or tearing of a tendon (the fiber that connects bones to muscles in the body), especially in the Achilles' tendon of the heel. This can happen during treatment or up to several months after you stop taking moxifloxacin. Tendon problems may be more likely to occur if you are over 60, if you take steroid medication, or if you have had a kidney, heart, or lung transplant.

Tell your doctor if you have ever had:

  • tendon problems, bone problems, arthritis, or other joint problems;

  • blood circulation problems, aneurysm, narrowing or hardening of the arteries;

  • heart problems, high blood pressure;

  • a genetic disease such as Marfan syndrome or Ehler's-Danlos syndrome;

  • diabetes;

  • a muscle or nerve disorder, such as myasthenia gravis;

  • liver or kidney disease;

  • a seizure, head injury, or brain tumor;

  • long QT syndrome (in you or a family member); or

  • low levels of potassium in your blood (hypokalemia).

Moxie is a brand of carbonated beverage that is among the first mass-produced soft drinks in the United States. It was created around 1876 by Augustin Thompson (born in Union, Maine) as a patent medicine called 'Moxie Nerve Food'[2] and was produced in Lowell, Massachusetts.[3] Its flavor is sweet, with a bitter aftertaste.[4] It is flavored with gentian root extract, an extremely bitter substance commonly used in herbal medicine.

Moxie was designated the official soft drink of Maine on May 10, 2005.[5] It continues to be regionally popular today, particularly in New England.[6] It is now produced by the Moxie Beverage Company of Bedford, New Hampshire. Moxie was purchased by The Coca-Cola Company in 2018.[7]

The name has become the word 'moxie' in American English, a noun meaning courage, daring, or determination.

History[edit]

Moxie originated around 1876 as a patent medicine called 'Moxie Nerve Food,'[2] by Augustin Thompson in Lowell, Massachusetts.[3] Thompson claimed that it contained an extract from a rare, unnamed South American plant, which is now known to be gentian root.[8][9] Moxie, he claimed, was especially effective against 'paralysis, softening of the brain, nervousness, and insomnia.'[2]

Thompson claimed that he named the beverage after a Lieutenant Moxie,[2] a purported friend of his, whom he claimed had discovered the plant and used it as a panacea, and the company he created continued to promulgate legendary stories about the word's origin. It likely derives from an Abenaki word that means 'dark water' and that is found in lake and river names in Maine, where Thompson was born and raised.[10]

After a few years, Thompson added soda water to the formula and changed the product's name to 'Beverage Moxie Nerve Food.' By 1884 he was selling Moxie both in bottles and in bulk as a soda fountain syrup. In 1885, he received a trademark for the term. He marketed it as 'a delicious blend of bitter and sweet, a drink to satisfy everyone's taste.'[11] Thompson died in 1903.[12]

A group of friends from Allentown, Pennsylvania, celebrating Independence Day in 1913 with a case of Moxie at a grove.

In 1907, the Moxie Nerve Food Company of New England filed a lawsuit in Boston against the Modox Company and others, alleging that they had copied the ingredients of Moxie and were using the name 'Modox,'[13] which closely resembles 'Moxie,' and were infringing upon patents and trademarks.[14] The suit was dismissed by the judge, who said the court could not protect the legitimate part of the plaintiff's business in this case. In a later case in New York, the Moxie Nerve Food Company won a lawsuit against Modox, which subsequently went out of business.[13]

President Calvin Coolidge was known to favor the drink, and Boston Red Sox slugger Ted Williams endorsed it on radio and in print. The company also marketed a beverage called 'Ted's Root Beer' in the early sixties. Author E. B. White once claimed that 'Moxie contains gentian root, which is the path to the good life.'[15]

The brand suffered a significant decline in sales during the 1930s.

The Catawissa Bottling Company in Catawissa, Pennsylvania is one of six bottlers in the United States that produce Moxie. Catawissa has produced it since 1945.[16]Polar Beverages also bottles Moxie in Worcester, Massachusetts,[17] as does Orca Beverage in Mukilteo, Washington.[18]

Since 1962[edit]

Sugar-free Diet Moxie was introduced in 1962, about the same time that Mad magazine began placing the Moxie logo in the background of its articles to increase public awareness of it. As a result of Mad's efforts, sales of the soft drink increased 10%[19] which led to the 'Mad About Moxie' campaign.[20]

The Moxie brand was purchased in 1966 by the Monarch Beverage Company of Atlanta. In 2007 Monarch sold it to its previous owner, Cornucopia Beverages of Bedford, New Hampshire, which is owned by the Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Northern New England, a subsidiary of the Kirin Brewery Company, which is a subsidiary of Kirin Company, Limited, which is a subsidiary of Kirin Holdings Company, Limited, based in Tokyo, Japan (a member of the Mitsubishikeiretsu).[21]

In its decision to step up efforts to distribute the product, Cornucopia cited increasing requests for Moxie from fans across the country. In 2007 it launched pilot sales in Florida and in 2010 granted distribution in Florida to Florida Micro Beverage Distributors.[22]

A Moxie Horsemobile. This one was built on a LaSalle sedan. It is on display at Clark's Trading Post in Lincoln, New Hampshire.

In 2011, Cornucopia began doing business as the Moxie Beverage Company to market Moxie and Moxie-branded products. A website, DrinkMoxie.com, was created to promote Moxie. Drink recipes using Moxie were created.

Demand for Moxie has waned in recent years, although the brand persists in New England and Pennsylvania. In Houston, Texas it is sold at Mainely Sandwiches restaurants.

On August 28, 2018, the Coca-Cola Company announced its purchase of Moxie from Coca-Cola Bottling Company of Northern New England Inc. for an unspecified amount.[23]

Advertising[edit]

The original Moxie logo featuring the 'Moxie Man' on the label of a derivative product.

Through extensive advertising, the term 'moxie' has become a widely known term in American English with the meaning 'courage, daring, or spirit,'[24][25] as in 'This kid's got moxie!'

Moxile 2 1 4

In its advertising, Moxie used 'Make Mine Moxie!' jingles, the slogan 'Just Make It Moxie for Mine,' and a 'Moxie Man' logo. The Moxie Man has appeared on labels in some form since 1906, and the image of a man pointing forward most associated with the brand was first introduced in 1911. The identity of the 'Moxie Man,' or 'Moxie Boy' as he was called in the 1920s, was apparently not known at that time, with a 1922 ad in the Boston Herald by F. M. Archer proclaiming 'in almost every town and city in the United States there is someone who believes they know the original of the Moxie Boy. In view of the many thousands of different opinions on this subject, we may offer a prize to the person who picks the actual boy, furnishing us photographic proofs, etc..the Moxie Boy, now a man (and some man at that), who posed for this picture many, many years ago, in fact before some of the readers of this article were born.'[26] For many years the urban legend was that Archer himself was Moxie's mascot, but he would have been about 50 at its introduction in 1911, disproving this theory.[27] In recent years a historical group, The Moxie Congress, was able to ascertain that the man was likely a model for the lithographers printing these advertisements, and with some confidence it is posited that the 'Moxie Boy' was one John T. Chamberlain of Revere, Massachusetts.[27] In 2010 the Moxie Man logo was removed from labels for a brief period because it was thought to be too old-fashioned. In 2011 the company's head of marketing, Ryan Savage, made the executive decision to bring the logo back in response to complaints from long-standing customers.[28]

A unique advertising tool was the Moxie Horsemobile, a modified automobile whose driver sits on a large model of a horse. The first Horsemobiles were deployed around 1918. A 1935 Rolls-Royce Moxie Horsemobile was sold for $55,000 at the May 20, 2011, Mecum Auction in Indianapolis, Indiana. Moxie at one time maintained about two dozen of them, and they appeared in parades and other public functions.

Derivative products[edit]

There is a Moxie Energy Drink and a variety of Olde New England Seltzers. The energy drink is citrus-based; it lacks Moxie's gentian root tang, caramel color, and (as of 2008) its distinctive branding; similarly, the waters are simply carbonated waters with fruit flavors marketed under the Moxie brand.

Moxie ice cream is seasonally available in Maine in limited quantities[29] and is mild in flavor as compared to the soft drink.

Moxie has been used as a cooking additive by chefs for its herbaceous, savory-sweet flavor profile. It is generally used in reductions as a glaze for meats such as lamb, as well as in baked beans.[30]
