Aioli or aïoli is a Mediterranean sauce made of garlic and olive oil. The names mean "oil" in Catalan and Provençal, it is found in the cuisines of the Mediterranean coasts of Spain and Italy. Some versions of the sauce are closer to a garlic mayonnaise, incorporating egg yolks and lemon juice, whereas other versions are without egg yolk and have more garlic; this gives the sauce a pastier texture, while making it more laborious to make as the emulsion is harder to stabilize. There are many variations, such as adding other seasonings. In France it may include mustard, it is served at room temperature. Like mayonnaise, aioli is an emulsion or suspension of small globules of oil and oil-soluble compounds in water and water-soluble compounds. In Spain, purists believe that the absence of egg distinguishes aioli from mayonnaise, but, not the case in France and other countries, where cooks may use egg or egg yolk as an emulsifier. Using only garlic as an emulsifier requires that the cook crush it and add oil drop by drop so excess oil does not "cut" the aioli.

Since the late 1980s, many people have called all flavored mayonnaises aioli. Flavorings include saffron and chili. Purists insist that flavored mayonnaise can contain garlic, but true aioli contains no seasoning other than garlic; the word is a compound of the words meaning "garlic" and "oil". The English spelling comes from the French aïoli; the spelling in Occitan may be alhòli, following the classical norm, or aiòli, following the Mistralian norm. In Catalan, it is spelled allioli; the most common term in Spanish is alioli, an adaptation from Catalan, although it is called ajoaceite, ajolio or ajaceite. It is spelt alioli in Galician. Garlic is crushed in a mortar and pestle and emulsified with salt, olive oil. Today, aioli is made in a food processor or blender, but some traditionalists object that this does not give the same result. In Malta, arjoli or ajjoli is made with the addition of either crushed galletti or tomato. In Occitan cuisine, aioli is served with seafood, fish soup, croutons.

An example is a dish called merluça amb alhòli. In the Occitan Valleys of Italy it is served with potatoes boiled with bay laurel. In Provence, aioli or, more formally, le grand aïoli, aioli garni, or aïoli monstre is a dish consisting of various boiled vegetables, poached fish, canned tuna, other seafood, boiled eggs, all served with aioli; this dish is served during the festivities on the feast days of the patron saint of Provençal villages and towns. It is traditional to serve it with cod on Ash Wednesday. Aïoli is so associated with Provence that when the poet Frédéric Mistral started a regionalist Provençal-language newspaper in 1891, he called it L'Aiòli. In Spain, allioli is served with arròs a banda from Alicante, with grilled lamb, grilled vegetables and arròs negre, comes in other varieties such as allioli de codony or allioli with boiled pear. Other used vegetables are beets, celery, cauliflower, chick peas, raw tomato.

Jeffrey Manber is regarded as one of the pioneering commercial space entrepreneurs. As CEO of NanoRacks, from 2009, Manber has steered the growth of the first company to own and market its own hardware and services on board the International Space Station. Manber has been involved in several of the key breakthrough commercial space projects, principally those revolving around the commercialization of space assets as well as the integration of the Russian space industry into major space programs, including that of the International Space Station. Manber is believed to be the only American to be an official part of the Russian space corporation, RSC Energia, during their privatization period of the 1990s, his early interest in space took the form of writing on microgravity business opportunities for publications such as The New York Times, McGraw-Hill, Town & Country magazine, among others. This work led him to be invited by the Reagan Administration to help establish the Office of Space Commerce within the U.

S. Department of Commerce. In so doing, he became involved in the early efforts by the Soviet Union to privatize and commercialize that nation's space efforts. In 1988 he assisted in the first commercial contract between the brand-new Soviet space station Mir and a U. S. company, Boston-based Payload Systems. The controversial pharmaceutical research undertaken on this project showed that microgravity was not always conducive to industrial research, despite the claims of NASA at that time, he was invited to the Soviet Union in 1989 to witness the launch, began working with the Russians and the international banking community to privatize post Soviet space assets. In 1992, Manber became the Managing Director of Energia Ltd, which represented the Russian space company NPO Energia, his initial task was to help support the first contact between the U. S. space agency NASA and the Russian space program for use of the Soyuz TM manned spacecraft as a lifeboat for the then-planned space station Freedom.

His work with senior NASA officials Arnie Aldrich and Sam Keller helped open the door between the Russian space program and key U. S. aerospace firms, including Lockheed and Rockwell Aerospace. His efforts to market the space station Mir played a role in bringing the Russian and American space industries together, ensuring greater safety for astronauts and continuity for the International Space Station project; the payoff in terms of safety took place when the Clinton Administration agreed to raise the orbital inclination of the U. S. space station to allow for flights from the Russian Soyuz and cargo ship Progress, which proved critical after each of the two groundings of the space shuttle program. In 1999, Manber was asked by space entrepreneur Walt Anderson and RSC Energia to head MirCorp, which leased the aging space station Mir for two years. Though commercially unsuccessful, it proved the business model that a private company could lease a manned space program and generate revenues in a non-traditional manner, as profiled in the documentary film, Orphans of Apollo History was made in April 2000 when the world's first and still only funded manned mission to orbit was launched.

Two cosmonauts, commander Sergei Zalyotin and Alexander Kalery traveled to the dormant space station Mir, opened it up and returned the station to normal life. During the more than 70-day mission, a number of critical firsts were achieved: the first commercially funded space walk, the first space mission without government funding, the first space explorers to be paid by a private company. MirCorp concluded a number of ground-breaking agreements. Jeffrey Manber signed Dennis Tito, the first space tourist to pay for his own ticket, to his launch contract, he signed a contract with television producer Mark Burnett, who produced the Survivor reality television series, with NBC, to develop a game show that would have sent the winner blasting off for a one-week stay on the Mir. However, due to extreme political pressure from NASA, the space station was de-orbited in March 2001 and MirCorp was shut down. Manber negotiated an agreement that allowed retailer Radio Shack to film the first commercial shot on the International Space Station, to be shown on American television, which featured a Russian Cosmonaut opening a Father's Day gift.

Since 2009, Jeffrey Manber has been the CEO of NanoRacks, the first company to own and market its own hardware and services on board the International Space Station, and. At NanoRacks, Manber has overseen the deployment of over 300 payloads to the ISS, with 64 satellites deployed to low Earth orbit as of September 2015; the NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer became the first commercial platform to deploy satellites from the ISS in 2014. In addition to many published articles on space and foreign policy, Manber is the author of the 2009 book, Selling Peace: Inside the Soviet Conspiracy That Transformed the U. S. Space Program, published by Apogee Books, he is the co-author of the 2005 book, Lincoln's Wrath: Fierce Mobs, Brilliant Scoundrels and a President's Mission to Destroy the Press, published by Sourcebooks, which tells the story of media censorship against anti-war newspapers during the time of Abraham Lincoln and the American Civil War. Manber served as CEO of Yuzoz MSNBC.com, which generates random numbers from live astronomical events, such as solar flares, northern lights and solar winds, for a variety of commercial products.
