Promote your company and increase the value of your products and services on the first worldwide B2B database.
Use our global database containing more than 4 million companies to run successful campaigns
What is your function and your business sector? I am the manager of AFI since it started in 1993. Our staff includes ten employees, and we work in the industrial supplies sector as well as providing services to the building trade, companies and communities. Who are your clients and suppliers? Our clients are primarily companies from the construction industry and the industrial sector. In both cases, these may be big companies with subsidiaries as well as more local and regional SMEs, or individual tradespeople. Our suppliers are various tools suppliers and makers in Europe. At the moment we use 1094 different suppliers. What are your main assets in face of the competition? Service. We are more focused on service needs and on the solutions we deliver to the client than on the product per se. We try to determine what will best meet the client's need, we examine the bill of specifications, we check that the request duly corresponds with his needs and we attempt to find a solution satisfactory to everybody. Within your current activity, what is the initiative or launch that you're the most proud of? Products I develop for the nuclear power industry. These are products used in the transport of TFA equipment. Actually, we're at the beginning of a deconstruction phase of nuclear power, but one needs to know that this phase will last 150 years and that it involves a lot of trades and business sectors, including ours. How do you keep your customers happy? Fast logistics, a quick reactivity time and stock. We have increased our stock by 35%, and we have also developed a retail website at the same time to make our e-commerce debut. Which complementary services do you propose alongside your products? We propose a range of services and support to the client depending on his specific needs. Thanks to our network, we are able to support clients who sometimes haven't a lot of representatives, if at all.
« We practically do everything by ourselves. »
What is your function and your business sector ?
I work as the quality control officer for ten years now in the Transports Jean-Claude Mermet company. Our business activity relates to transports, logistics and storage, and we also take in charge the ads on vehicles as well as vehicles and offices renting.
Who are your clients and suppliers ?
Our customer base is mainly comprised of industrialists working in all business areas (automobile, plastics processing, etc.), and also with haulage companies which entrust us with all kind of freights.
As to our suppliers, they are of course vehicles suppliers, insurers but also tires, diesel fuel and oil suppliers.
Which are your main assets in face of the competition ?
Our main asset resides in the fact we practically do everything by ourselves. Thus, unlike some haulage companies which subcontract, it entitles us to decrease the potential litigations as well as the deadlines.
Another of our strengths lies in our proximity and our important shipping ability in the Rhônes-Alpes area thanks to more than 30 vehicles in this region, which affords us to gain both flexibility and service quality.
Within your current activity, what is the initiative or launch that you're the most proud of ?
Precisely to do everything by ourselves and to have been able to keep this savoir-faire in the customer proximity. Just a few of haulage companies could have kept it due to the obligations of competitiveness. As for us, we have achieved it.
Has your business core evolved in the course of the last years ?
Yes. For instance, people use fewer and fewer vehicles for long trips, so they opt for subcontracts. We have also faced an important evolution concerning the working hours. Legislation has notably obliged usnot to exceed some services and driving times, and also to accept compulsory break times. This with a view of giving the haulers better working conditions and of reinforcing the road safety.
Is innovation important to your company ?
Yes, but it comes a lot from the suppliers. Why ? Because we're notably facing many innovations regarding ecology, with more and more rules imposed by the government. These are obvious advances but, economically speaking, they favour our activity in more or less proportions.
The classification is at the heart of Kompass know-how since its creation. It constitutes a precious tool as it structures the information. An efficient and simple structure Kompass classification is structured upon 3 levels: sectors, fields and products. The first level refers to a series of 67 business sectors and includes 2 numbers. For instance, the wood industry is coded 14. The second level corresponds to sub-sectors, namely sectors that can specify more precisely the activity. There are identified by a 5-digit code. For the wood sector, the code 14040 characterizes the tropical wood logs. A third level, related to sub-sectors, lists the products and services with a 7-digit code: 1403007 refers to teak wood logs. In order to optimize the user's search, Kompass has established 15 major families encompassing all the sectors. With a precise title like Food Industry, Energy/Environnement or Chemistry/Plastic/Health, they facilitate the use of the classification. A progressive structure These levels have evolved over time according to the global economy and technological innovations. At the time of its creation, the classification was mostly about the industrial sector, at the heart of the economic activity after WWII. Little by little, it was reviewed and enriched. In 2013, its thirteenth version was updated. On the initiative from specialists, some sections, connected to sectors that recently evolved, were entirely restructured and the wording simplified. On a daily basis, the whole Kompass network mobilizes to contribute to the updating and the improvement of the system, in order to meet the expectations of the global market and guarantee maximum clarity to the user. A worldwide database structure Each company is listed in the database according to its overall activities. Thus, Kompass guarantees to its users precise information about the companies know-how. Other national classifications such as the NAF (French Classification of Activities) are not in a position to offer this service. Moreover, as the classification was homogenized to global scale, the user can search for a company in France and abroad. With only one click and in his mother tongue, he can target a company according to its activity in nearly 70 countries.

TMI, Jared! Accepting his award for Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Globes on Jan. 12, the actor opened up on just how much of a transformation he had to go through for his daring 'Dallas Buyers Club' role.
Weight gain/loss is the flashy transformation actors can go through for a movie role — it's pretty much cliche at this point. But Jared Leto went much further than dropping a few pounds for his role in Dallas Buyers Club, and he revealed all the gory details at the Golden Globes on Jan. 12.
Jared Leto: I Waxed My Entire Body
Jared, who is also the lead singer of 30 Seconds to Mars, was honored with the Best Supporting Actor award for his role as Rayon, a transgendered prostitute in Dallas Buyers Club. And when he started his acceptance speech by saying, "I didn't prepare a speech," we knew we were in for a treat.
Looking at Jared at his lustrous locks at the Globes, and then his character in Dallas Buyers Club, it's clear that he went through a huge transformation — but we didn't realize it was this huge. "I had to do a lot of things to prepare," Jared started. "One of the things I did was wax my entire body — including my eyebrows. I'm just fortunate that it wasn't a period piece so I didn't have to do a full Brazilian."
Jared then joked, "Ladies, you know what I'm talking about… and so do some of you men, I think." Amazing. Though part of us thinks Jared didn't mind going hairless for a little while.
The actor did turn himself into a completely different person for Dallas Buyers Club – it's wild to hear just how far he was willing to go — so his Best Supporting Actor win isn't all that surprising in hindsight. What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Do you give Jared credit for shaving it all off? Let us know!

At the beginning of the month I posted the requirements for the Photography belt loop from the Cub Scout Academics and Sports program. If your Cub Scout enjoyed that activity, maybe he wants to learn more about photography by earning the pin also.
Photography Pin Requirements
Earn the Photography belt loop, and complete five of the following requirements:
- Using pictures, explain what photography is and how it relates to light and picture-taking.
- Look at a book of published photos about a subject that interests you. Find out what makes these photos remarkable and why people want to look at these pictures. Learn whether the photographer used light or angles to make the photos interesting. Discuss what you learned with an adult.
- Explain to an adult what "red eye" is and why it can happen in a picture. Show examples.
- Make a short video of a friend, family member, or pet, and show it to your den or family.
- With an adult's help, use a photo-editing software feature to crop, lighten or darken, and change a photo.
- Make a creative project using at least one photo.
- Take three pictures of the same scene using different lens settings. Show these pictures to your den or family.

We all have favorite dishes our grandparents or other family members made. I have a few favorites from my childhood family get togethers. My grandmother made tabouli which was basically a parsley salad and is something I started seeing at speciality stores and Whole Foods a few year ago but it always bothered me how white it was, meaning it had more wheat in it than parsley. My grandmother always made it green with a hint of wheat. [Read more…]
My Meat Consumption Is Ruining The Planet
I have thought long and hard about what I am going to say in this post and have not discussed it with one person. I have decided to become a part-time vegetarian. Now before you accuse me of making up a term that is code for a cope out here me out.
Americans eat 12 ounces of meat per day. I am not sure if I eat that much but until recently I did not think that much about my meat consumption. I admittedly consume meat at breakfast on occasion, I love bacon and sausage a lot. I eat meat at lunch sometimes I get hamburgers from the fresh burger place around the corner. Other times for lunch I will get braised beef or meatballs with my veggies at my favorite local food restaurant.
Meat consumption has a huge effect on climate change. A 2006 UN report estimated that 18% of man-made green house gases came from meat consumption. A 2008 article in World Watch magazine estimated it might be as high as 50%! Regardless of the actual percentage reducing my meat consumption is basically a free and immediate change I can make to help reduce my personal CO2 emissions. [Read more…]
Meatless Monday: Beans and Spinach Stuffed Acorn Squash
My sister-in-law is a border line vegan and I love the challenge of finding something yummy to make for her that I can get the rest of the family to eat as well. I took a recipe that was recommended to me and made some significant changes to it to meet my tastes. I want everyone to like it and I have to take into account what people like and do not like…for example olives are banned from my home and my kitchen I hate them, I also do not eat mushrooms so often I have to adapt a vegan recipe to address the fact these ingredients are not welcome in my recipes.
It is important to note that I am supporter of real food. The best way to make this recipe is with as many non-canned items as you can find. Make the beans from scratch and take your old bread and make bread crumbs out of it before it gets moldy. Some of the ingredients are harder to make fresh but if you need to purchase them try to avoid the BPA and get them in a glass container (and recycle or reuse the container).
I also understand that time to make a homemade meal is hard so if you need to use prepackaged ingredients this is still a very healthy recipe that can be made in a short period of time. [Read more…]
Meatless Monday: Eggplant Parmesan
I have never actually read a recipe for Eggplant Parmesan but this is the way I have always made it and it is very simple. As you can see by all my meatless Monday recipes they are on the easy side. This recipe can be made in advance and be refrigerated or frozen. If you are harvesting a bunch of eggplant you can even just cook up the eggplant and freeze it after it is cooked and use it later.
Ingredients (I recommend organic for every ingredient possible)
- 1 eggplant
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons of milk
- 2 cups of bread crumbs (Italian seasoned)
- olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan
- Tomato basil sauce or marinara
- Mozzerlla cheese
- Pasta for the side
Cut the eggplant is slices no thicker than an inch but I think half an inch is best. I leave the skin on it has a lot of nutrients in it but if you really dislike it you can remove it.
In one bowl put the egg and milk together and whisk together with a fork (do not dirty your actual whisk). In another bowl put the bread crumbs in.
Dip each slice of eggplant in the egg mixture coating both sides and then dip in the breadcrumbs coating on both sides. Put on a plate. I recommend repeating this step till all the eggplant is ready to fry.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and place the eggplant in the hot oil. Cook until a golden color and flip. You can also bake the eggplant instead of frying. It is VERY important that all the pieces are the same width so it cooks evenly, bake on 375 for about 10-15 mins till just golden.
Remove from oil and place on a paper towel to drain some oil off. Then take a baking dish and coat with a light layer of sauce on the bottom. Arrange one layer of eggplant on the bottom. On each piece of eggplant put a spoonful of sauce to cover. You can cover with cheese each layer or just the top. I recommend two to three layers of eggplant.
Once all the eggplant is in the pan cover with mozzarella cheese and put in the oven at 375 for about 20 minutes till the cheese is melted but not burned. If you refrigerate the pan before putting in the oven it will take more time.
Serve with a salad and some pasta and you have an amazing meatless Monday recipe. Save the leftovers for lunch or another meal later in the week, this heats up very very well!
What is your favorite Meatless Monday recipe??
Meatless Monday: Hummus
So you got this post today in your inbox and you are thinking hummus? Great what else will I have for dinner. Hummus goes with so many different things and can be such an amazing food to have in your repertoire.
This is a family recipe and was present at every family gathering we like chick peas in my family.
2 cups of canned chick peas or dried chick peas that have been soaked (keep some of the water from the can)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 clove of garlic (for very flavorful you use up to 4 cloves)
1/3 cup of Tahini (sesame paste)
6 tbsp. lemon juice (2 lemons)
2 tbsp. water or liquid from chickpeas
8 dashes of tabasco or other hot sauce
Place all ingredients in the food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until it is well pureed but still had texture. Can be served with anything, I love it on pita bread but it can be served on endive leaves, celery, on salad or anything else.
It keeps in the fridge for a while so it is great to keep all week.

5 Stocks Setting Up to Break Out
WINDERMERE, Fla. ( Stockpickr) --U.S. stocks were trading choppily between modest gains and losses on Friday as market players remained cautious following the previous session's massive drop in equity prices. Clearly, traders remain concerned about the state of the global economy and the unresolved debt crisis resolved in Europe.
As of most recent check, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was trading down by 13 points to 10,721, and the S&P 500 was trending up 5 points to 1,135. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was up by 16 points to 2,470.
From a technical perspective, traders need to keep a close eye on some major technical levels on the broad indexes in the coming days and weeks. A break and close below 10,604.07 on the Dow should be considered very bearish since that level marks the August lows. A move below that level on big volume could easily set the Dow up to test its next significant previous support level at 9936.62. Traders should watch the 1101.54 level like hawks on the S&P 500. A move and close below that level with volume could set the S&P 500 to test its next previous support zone at 1039.70.

That said, if the levels I mentioned do hold in the coming days and weeks, then look for a sharp short-covering rally to take hold. Be prepared to trade the market either way based off of what the major averages due at these key support zones. With so many moving parts in the market, there's always some sector or stock that's acting strong and setting up to breakout. Trading breakouts is not a new game on Wall Street. This strategy has been by legendary traders such as William O'Neal, Stan Weinstein and Nicolas Darvas. Here's a look at a number of stocks that look poised to break out and trade higher from current levels.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Good Morning, Broncos fans! The Bradenton Herald caught up with Von Miller while he was at the NFLPA's rookie symposium last week, and the #2 pick spoke about his inclusion in the Brady suit and his lockout living arrangements. Miller admits it will be tough to top the season last year's second-overall choice Ndamukong Suh had, and he has a great perspective on the fact that he'll likely make a lot less money on his rookie contract than will Suh as a result of the expected new rookie wage scale. Miller told writer Alan Dell that he can't fear losing something he never had, and that
I am living with my parents, and they love me being there so everything is fine. To me, it's never been about the money. I've played all my life for free, and if you take something here you've got to give something there. The great players will get their money in the long run.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! The yo-yoing of the labor talks has continued, as Thursday's grim midday news were followed by many hours of negotiations and a reported mending of the revenue split issues. The talks continued for a couple of hours yesterday before breaking for the weekend, and are expected to start anew on Tuesday. Adam Schefter says the main issues being dealt with at this point are still the revenue split and the financial source of the so-called "legacy fund" to benefit retired players.
Mike Freeman is hearing that player attorneys Jeffrey Kessler and Jim Quinn are the biggest impediments to a deal at this point, and he writes that the Eighth Circuit and Judge Doty are holding off their own rulings and hoping that Judge Boylan's mediation will be enough to see the two sides through to an agreement. Finally, Jason Cole writes that Kessler and Quinn are happy to wait out the courts because come September, the players are likely to win big with their antitrust suit, as the owner's lawyer before the Eighth Circuit did little to convince the judges that a lockout could be extended beyond six months.
Happy Friday, Broncos fans! Jarrett Bell of USAT writes about the Broncos and the five biggest questions he deems they're facing this season, starting with whether John Elway will succeed as a front-office exec and if Tim Tebow can wrest the starting QB job from Kyle Orton. He figures the presence of John Fox means that hopefully the constant turnover at the DC position will finally come to an end, although Bell thinks the Broncos' selection of Von Miller over Marcell Dareus (of course, who knows if Dareus was even their second choice?) will be a hot debate topic going forward.
Bell concludes by wondering if Brian Dawkins has enough to contribute in his 16th season (and is it worth $6 million?) and if the Broncos can finally restore their home-field advantage. That last one should be filed under the "moot points" category, as good teams always have good records at home, while mediocre and poor teams (like Denver has been for the past five years) do not. They just have to become a better team, period. The rest (winning at home, beating division rivals and lesser teams, etc.) result from that...not vice versa.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! In Woody's latest mailbag, he shares some good insight on the Denver coaching staff, as John Fox retained 11 of Josh McDaniels' assistants, mostly on the offensive side. Paige writes that there was a divide among the staff last year, with defensive assistants comprising what he calls the "anti-McDaniels faction," most or all of whom have moved on. He also points out that Fox quite interestingly kept on Mark Thewes, McDaniels' best friend and assistant, citing the job Thewes did of insulating and protecting McDaniels as his situation in Denver worsened.
Woody figures that if Tim Tebow is the starting QB, we can expect to see more plays that utilize his ability to get out of the pocket, and he theorizes that Knowshon Moreno will at best either split carries or become more of a third-down type back. He also floats the idea of re-signing Daniel Graham, but that seems unlikely considering his advanced age and the diverse talent and youth already on the roster at that position. Woody expects little meddling from Fox on offense, not because it's Fox's way (it is) but because he'll need to focus on helping Dennis Allen in his first year as DC.
Woody says not to expect Justin Bannan back, and that he's likely headed eastward. Finally, he says that the only way Kyle Orton ends up starting at QB is if the labor talks go much later than expected, resulting in an abridged training camp.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! As he profiles Julius Thomas and his transition to the NFL, Klis changed his mind sometime yesterday and realized that no, the Broncos probably won't be signing any veteran tight ends in free agency. Meanwhile, Thomas has been staying with Brady Quinn and was apparently the first of Denver's nine picks to join the veteran workouts yesterday when he caught passes from Quinn.
Klis also helps us clarify the rookies/playbooks mystery: Thomas and the rest of the second-day draftees apparently don't have them, while the first-day picks do. But really, how does that make any sense at all? It can't be that the relationship between fellow draftees or between veterans and rookies is so cutthroat that they don't want to help each other out, right? It would presumably take just one player with a playbook and some initiative to head over to a Staples or Kinko's and have some copies made for his mates. Perhaps NFL playbooks now self-destruct when they're placed on a copy machine? Come on guys, it's been two months...
Note 10:50AM ET - As Ted pointed out to me, there is paper out there that prevents scans and copies, and it stands to reason that NFL teams would utilize this technology when printing their playbooks. So, that would explain things and render my rant moot...
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Mike Klis looks at the veteran running backs expected to be available in free agency, and thankfully doesn't list DeAngelo Williams as the best fit for Denver. Much more sensibly, Klis thinks Oakland's Michael Bush would be an ideal fit, and Bush certainly does more closely resemble the "Fox likes bigger RBs" meme, as the 27-year old has six inches and over thirty pounds on Williams. More importantly, Bush is likely to command much less in the way of guaranteed money.
Puzzingly, Klis is sticking with the "Denver needs to sign a pass-catching TE" line of thought even after the Broncos added Julius Thomas and Virgil Green via the draft to the incumbent group of Richard Quinn, Dan Gronkowski and Daniel Coats. Unless keeping five TEs on the roster is an option (how could it be?) it's quite hard to believe the Broncos would want to give another TE any amount of guaranteed money. Figure that Coats is a very likely cut, and three or four of the remaining players would make the final roster.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Among their latest Whispers, PFW reiterates that Mario Haggan is likely to be playing end (of course, we did hear it from LB caoch Richard Smith, so we already know it's fact) and says the Dolphins will also be interested in signing DeAngelo Williams. I don't know about you, but I really don't like the idea of Denver getting into any sort of bidding war over a 28-year-old running back. Granted, he's only carried the ball 841 times in the NFL (plus 118 receptions), but the lack of carries has been due to injuries, and his body did also endure 969 carries in college (plus 70 receptions). He's missed 16 games over the past two seasons; is that the kind of player you want to see the Broncos giving an eight-figure guarantee to?
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Mike Freeman writes that after having spoken with several players and league officials over the past couple days, he expects a new CBA will be reached sometime in early- or mid-July. Freeman thinks all of the recent progress was sparked by the owners' desire to salvage their preseason revenue, and he says parties from both sides have been much more optimistic about a new deal off the record than on.
Meanwhile, LB Ben Leber, who's a named plaintiff in the Brady suit and a free agent, says he expects a new CBA will be agreed upon in time for a full season to be played.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Leigh Steinberg considers the many ways the lockout will end up affecting teams this season, starting with the disadvantage teams like Denver will have as a new coaching staff races to familiarize itself with the players. Steinberg writes that veteran free agents will have plenty of catching up to do in learning new systems and getting acquainted with teammates, while both drafted and undrafted rookies will be at a serious competitive advantage. Due to the lack of offseason conditioning, Steinberg foresees an increase in serious injuries during training camp and a higher severity of injuries.
Along the same line of thinking, Jason Cole writes that teams expect to lean more on veteran players than ever before.
Happy Friday, Broncos fans! ESPN's trio of Mortensen, Schefter and Clayton are reporting that as part of the labor talks, the two sides are considering measures to help teams retain their own players in what will be an abbreviated free agency period. One option is to give each team a right of first refusal on up to three free agents (only this year), allowing them to match contract offers from other franchises. Another idea under consideration is to open a brief window for teams to negotiate exclusively with their own players before free agency truly begins.

Bicycling Chiropractic
Cycle Oregon
Dr. Allen has provided quality chiropractic and massage care to a wide variety of bicyclists, from weekend athletes to professional racers. He has been part of the multidisciplinary healthcare team treating bicyclists on Cycle Oregon, an annual bicycling trek across Oregon, for ten years (pictured).
A Satisfied Customer, Cycle Oregon X (1997) :
Mon, 15 Sep 1997
Thank you, Rick, for making my Cycle Oregon X odyssey as painless as possible. This bicycle adventure covered over 500 miles in seven days horizontally and over 25,000 feet vertically. A 100-mile day over the 5,300-foot McKenzie Pass was included. The Rider Handbook recommended that we prepare by cycling over 750 miles during the summer. Unfortunately, I only did 360 miles in preparation and only one of my training rides reached the 73-mile average for the trip. So, I expected some pain and suffering along with the adventure.
When I finally arrived at the registration hall in Nyssa at the eastern border of Oregon, I saw that there were about 20 people offering massage therapy and booking appointments for the coming week. I prefer a deep massage and I picked you because you looked to be the strongest physically.
Little did I know that I had chosen a licensed chiropractor as well.
The first day of was very hot and by the end of the 75-mile I was feeling faint and my legs were sore. That night, you gave me my first treatment. To my amazement and delight, I really didn't feel any great discomfort the next day. My legs just got stronger as the trip progressed across Oregon toward the ocean. You even had me dancing at the end of the 100-mile day. And that neck adjustment you gave me removed the kink caused by my helmet-mounted rear view mirror.
Naturally, I would strongly recommend your services anyone and especially to participants of future Cycle Oregon tours.

Improvements Planned For U.S. 190 Exit Ramp On I-12 Eastbound
Northshore drivers who find themselves stuck on I-12 Eastbound at the U.S. 190 exit ramp should have some relief in a few years.
St. Tammany Parish President Pat Brister says plans are in place to extend and convert that exit into a double exit to accommodate both northbound and southbound 190 traffic which should improve the flow of vehicles.
"With the growth that we've experienced, we've done a lot of work on auxiliary roads, but the interstate is now getting jammed up and traffic is stopping on the interstate," Brister told Fox 8 News Tuesday.
Brister warns it won't be a quick fix. "This is the beginning. It's in the planning stage and it will be, I'm sure, a couple years before it's completed."
Brister adds parish officials and DOTD have talked and both sides will do their best to keep traffic moving while construction is taking place.

Non-renewable energy will end in the next 50 years.
So then what do we do? It is a huge problem in the world. I think it will cause conflict in the future. At some time, there will be war in the world for energy, so now we must think about that deeply.
We must also move to another energy source -- a renewable energy source. If not, we can't deal with that problem suddenly if we wait too long, so let's move to renewable energy.

"We knew it would be tough trying to keep it a secret, "stated Janice Deady. "Richie has so many friends and he always knows what is going on in the town, even if he has been back for only a few days." "If we had put something in the paper, we probably would have had to get the Boston Garden," stated Chris Hamilton. "But we really wanted to surprise Richie, which we did."
What wasn't surprising was the level of emotion that filled Florian Hall when Richie entered the hall. "It was so emotional to have him back with his family and friends, everyone at Florian Hall felt a sense of relief along with a sense of joy. It was a very memorable night," stated Rep Brian Wallace, who emceed the event along with Congressman Stephen Lynch., The evening began as the Litto boys Richie Jr, Matthew, Patrick and Mikey presented flowers to their mother, Lorrie and sister Jillian. Congressman Lynch spoke first and warmly remembered touring Iraq recently and leaving a briefing only to be met by Sgt Rich Litto. "I was certainly glad to see Richie that day in Iraq, but the General wasn't as happy because Richie was not scheduled to be meeting me that afternoon, but try telling that to a Southie kid." Lynch laughed. Congressman Lynch told the General how close he was with Richie and the General relented. Lynch also presented Sgt Litto with a beautifully framed Congressional Record speech which he made on the floor of Congress about Rich Litto as well as a flag which flew over the Capitol in Washington.
And Richie's friends in high places just kept on coming. City Council President Michael Flaherty spoke next and presented Richie with a citation from the Boston City Council, which proclaimed Saturday April 15, 2006 as Rich Litto Day in Boston. Massachusetts Veteran Secretary Tom Kelly, who is a Medal of Honor recipient, then read a proclamation from Governor Mitt Romney followed by Amanda Simon, who represented Mayor Menino. Chris Hamilton presented Rich with a plaque from Boston Police Commissioner Kathy O'Toole and Senator Jack Hart presented Rich with a proclamation from the Massachusetts Senate. Representative Brian Wallace read a moving letter from City Councilor Jim Kelly as well as presenting a citation from the Massachusetts House of Representatives and ended the speaking program with a poem.
When Rich Litto spoke, he was visibly moved and told the crowd that he was overwhelmed and grateful for the support that night and for all the days and nights he was in Iraq. He especially thanked his wife Lorrie for her support and for keeping things together at home while he was away. He thanked all of the elected officials and his family and friends who made the night such a huge success as well as Southie Kids Cares who made a huge welcome home banner which was signed by Southie school kids and party attendees. It was a very special night for a very special Marine.

• Member Maine Guides Association • Life Member Maine Bowhunters Association • President and Founder Portage Lake Arrows • Member and Vice-President Northern Maine Bowhunters • Member Sportsmans Alliance of Maine • Northern Maine's "First Premier Bowhunter" • Two time winner: "Bowhunter Achievement Award" • Holder of record class bear and moose in Maine • Licensed Maine state taxidermist, full service • First archer to tag a bear, moose and deer with long bow in Maine (all within 21 days!) • Pope and Young mountain lion with long bow • Record 153 3/8 moose with long bow • Record 148 1/4 buck with long bow • Record 364 caribou with long bow • Record 20 3/8 black bear with long bow
by Wayne Selfridge
His Robin Hood accuracy with a handmade bow is not just confined to the range. He has harvested many Maine game animals with string and stick, twice scoring a triple play by downing a bear, moose and deer in the same year--1989 and 2001. Many are impressive specimens that also foretell his wisdom about the game he seeks.
Aroostook County has many famous outdoorsmen, but there's one who stands out above the others. He is known from Island Falls to Allagash, he's been bestowed with state awards for his archery skills and recently received national recognition for his sportsman exploits. Eldon Jandreau of Portage Lake, owner of Custom Taxidermy and Hunter's Point Guiding Service is that man. Eldon's gentle voice belies his strength that is as equally capable at muscling out a sport's bear, deer or moose, yet delicate enough to demonstrate fine artistry with the skill of a surgeon's hand as he makes the same animal come back to still life.
For 23 years Eldon has performed the magic of reincarnating game that now graces thousands of trophy walls across the country. The displays in his studio range from a mountain lion he arrowed on a Montana hunt, to caribou, moose and small game, and of course his specialties; whitetail deer heads and bear. It doesn't matter that his lucrative taxidermy business is located in a quaint country town away from traveled routes on the edge of the GreatEldon Jandreau North Woods. It's his reputation with scalpel and airbrush that draws successful hunters and anglers from afar to permanently memorialize the memories of a hunting or fishing trip.
What better way to honor a fallen game animal than to forever bestow it as a den and conversation centerpiece. Eldon does just that with a professional flair that he showcases with a word-of-mouth expert reputation. He's not one to show off his taxidermy skills at shows. He's like that good carpenter who lets his work advertise the talent, like each mount that leaves Eldon's shop with a satisfied customer. Eldon's guiding service has put Portage Lake and Aroostook County on the nation's hunting map for 22 years. When renowned archer, Bill Langer, wanted successful bear hunts for his most recent bowhunting video, For the Love of the Hunt, he chose Eldon's guide service. Of the 20 longbow hunts depicted on the video that take place across the country, 8 are bruin hunts--all courtesy of Eldon.
This February Eldon was invited by the West Virginia Bowhunter's Association to give a moose and bear hunting seminar. When he completed his presentation, to his surprise, this organization awarded him with the Outfitter of the Year Award. In spite of all this, Eldon is even more renowned for his archery hunting skills. Not only does he cater to bowhunting clients, which make up the majority of his clientele, he is Maine's Fred Bear of the longbow. He constructed an indoor range on his property where archery leagues from across the state come to compete.
Eldon is the standard to beat, as he has taken past Maine and New England archery championships. Recently he entered the International Bowhunting Organization World Championship Qualifier in Springfield, Massachusetts. He placed second, one point behind the winner, who was the world champion two years ago. His Robin Hood accuracy with a handmade bow is not just confined to the range. He has harvested many Maine game animals with string and stick, twice scoring a triple play by downing a bear, moose and deer in the same year--1989 and 2001. Many are impressive specimens that also foretell his wisdom about the game he seeks.
When I researched this piece with Eldon, it was like pulling teeth for information, for he is a modest man, describing clients' hunts with the excitement as if he was on the hunt himself. Although many of his sports return each year, he always has room for more and feels a special satisfaction when a first-time hunter is successful. Whether drawing a bow or chambering a bullet, if you want the best chance of scoring on a Maine black bear or moose, or are interested in hunting for huge Aroostook whitetails book with Eldon by calling 207-435-2231. You'll get the total package.

Thanks for the feedback, Seth. You're right that most college students are active, tech-savvy, and interested in the environment. But we've based this blog post off what students themselves have actually bought when organizing a promotion for their college organization. Perhaps the studies you mention based their study on what students would like to receive as promotional items versus what they procure for their own promotions.
Either way, your feedback is greatly appreciated. I have updated the post to make it more clear why these items were chosen in particular. Thank you!
I work for the promotional products industry and I think the ideas you raised in this article are fantastic. Thank you for sharing them.

What is a contract?
A contract is an agreement between two or more parties to do or not do a particular thing. There must be a common understanding among the parties as to the essential terms, there must be mutual obligations, and there must be "legal consideration," meaning that something of value is exchanged. A contract may be called many different things and still be a contract. The common contracts seen on the university campus are a grant, memorandum of understanding, memorandum of agreement, affiliation agreement, agreement or contract. Further, a document may be a contract even if the university is not paying anything for the item or service that we are getting in return. If you have a question as to whether the document you are reviewing is a contract, feel fee to contact the Office of General Counsel.
While some contracts may be oral; the University and State of North Carolina require that all contracts for the University be in writing. This is accomplished through a written contract or a purchase order or by use of your P-Card.
When a contract for goods is written, a court will enforce the terms of the written contract and will generally not consider prior oral agreements that conflict with the written terms. (For example, see the "Parole Evidence Rule," G.S. 25-2-202(a)). Further, an agreement may be a binding contract even though neither party pays money to the other.
Examples of contracts include: agreements for purchase or rental of goods or services; nondisclosure agreements; agreements that set terms or restrictions on the acceptance of "gifts"; a sale, lease, and sometimes even the donation of University goods or services; liability waivers; settlements of disputes; licenses; student or faculty exchange agreements; memoranda of understanding or cooperation; hotel reservations that require written agreement; the right to use the University name or resources, etc. The concept of a "contract" is quite broad, so to be on the safe side you should assume that any agreement or understanding with another party could be a contract.How can you tell if an agreement is a University contract?
If you arrange a contract or agreement (bearing in mind that authority to sign an agreement is very limited, as noted below) while acting in the scope of your employment for the University, it is likely a University contract. There must be a University interest at stake.
In addition, the agreement must be within your employment duties as authorized by your supervisors. In general, agreements are not University contracts if they are entered on behalf of a separate legal entity such as a foundation (including those affiliated with the University), or a student organization, or purely private interests. Further, it is unlawful to use a public purchase for private benefit (G.S. 143-58.1).Who has authority to enter or approve contracts for NC State University?
As a general rule, only the Chancellor and certain Vice Chancellors have the authority to execute (sign) contracts for the University. Anyone else who enters into a contract that purports to bind the University or its subunits is acting without authority and could be held personally liable for the breach of the contract or for the full value of the contract. (See G.S. 143-58).
In general, the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business has authority to sign all contracts; the Vice Chancellor for Research has authority to sign contracts for sponsored programs; the Vice Chancellor for Extension, Engagement and Economic Development has authority to sign contracts for extension service agreements; and the Provost has authority to sign EPA appointment letters, academic agreements and international exchange and academic compensation agreements. These Vice Chancellors have delegated in writing certain parts of their signatory authority to specified individuals. (See
Delegation of Signature Authority Chart)
Small purchases (up to $5000) may be done by departments without going to a Vice Chancellor (or designee) for approval, as long as there is no formal purchase order or written contract or agreement involved. (See Basic Purchasing Information webpage)
Purchases between $5,000 and $500,000 are normally executed through a purchase order issue from the NC State Purchasing Department. Bids are sought and standard Terms and Conditions are used in lieu of obtaining a Vice Chancellor's signature.Does the Office of General Counsel have recommendations about what types of contract terms to accept and what types to modify?
Yes. The first recommendation is that you review the list on the Contracts Library website to determine if there is a standard agreement that fits your situation.
The second recommendation is that you read the other partys contract terms closely and understand the business risks they pose. If you don't understand certain terms, ask Purchasing or the Office of General Counsel what they mean.
The third recommendation is that you compare the terms to the Contract CHECKLIST. This will enable you to anticipate potential areas of disagreement between the University and the other party to the contract, and possibly work around those concerns before the contract goes to Purchasing for review and modification. Remember that you must have Purchasing review any contract that another party wants someone at the University to sign, even if the other party is giving your department the good or service at no cost.

Miami Hurricanes Want to Play Game in New York Every Four Years
Categories: Sports
Miami AD Kirby Hocutt tells CanesSports via SBNation that a deal to play the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in Yankee Stadium in 2013 is off, the 'Canes still hope to schedule another opponent for the game.
"Unfortunately the opponent hasn't been finalized," says Hocutt. "There are a couple of Big East options we're working on. What we've done is we've given a list of opponents to individuals at Yankee Stadium on who we would play. They're talking to a couple of teams I'd prefer not to mention."
Hocutt hopes that the possible 2013 game isn't the only game the 'Canes play in Gotham.
"We would return or have the desire to return at a later point, of course," Hocutt adds, "as well we have a strong desire to have a consistent presence in the New York City/New Jersey market. I'm hopeful we can get some finalization to the game at Yankee Stadium in 2013, and on an every four-year basis have a presence in New York City/New Jersey."
A trip to a UM frat house or sorority hall reveals that the school certainly has a big base of students and alum from the NYC/NJ area (how you doing Long Island girls?), and the 'Canes traditionally edgy, non-redneck football culture might prove welcoming to New Yorker's looking to dip their toes in the pool of Red State America's favorite sport that doesn't involve car crashes. So the plan does make a certain amount of sense.
The only thing seeming to hold it up is the absence of other teams. You know, we've heard rumors that Columbia actually has something resembling a football team. If Hocutt gets desperate maybe he can burn the 'Canes yearly FCS subdivision gimme and institute the most lopsided series in the nation.

Could have bought a cheaper wheel but wanted a good one...took to a shop with reputable guys that I trust and have done business with for years,they said spokes were loose and runout was over 70thousandths...cost me $90 to have fixed....I guess I should have bought a cheaper wheel on eBay if I was going to have to have it fixed anyway. Think about this when you order!

Barry Callebaut and Morinaga to extend partnership in Japan
- Renewal and extension of a 10-year supply agreement between Barry Callebaut and Morinaga for up to 16,000 tonnes of chocolate and compound deliveries a year
- Barry Callebaut to build a new chocolate and compound factory in Takasaki, near Tokyo
- Both parties to intensify the cooperation in developing new, innovative products
Zurich/Switzerland, Tokyo/Japan, June 14, 2012 – Barry Callebaut, the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality cocoa and chocolate products, and Morinaga, one of Japan's largest confectionery companies, today signed an agreement to extend their long-term strategic partnership signed early 2008. Both parties agreed on a new, 10-year supply agreement for up to 16,000 tonnes of chocolate and compound products a year. For this, Morinaga and Barry Callebaut will also intensify their cooperation in the field of Research & Development (R&D) and jointly develop new products.
As part of the agreement, Barry Callebaut's current factory in Amagasaki near Osaka, will stop operation in mid-2013. The company will relocate the operation and increase the production capacity in a newly built chocolate and compound factory in Takasaki, around 100 km north of Tokyo, where Morinaga intends to expand its operation. Besides the production for Morinaga, Barry Callebaut will gradually increase sales volume for other customers in the Japanese market. The company will also further strengthen its sales organization in Japan in order to open up previously untapped market potential.
"The extension of the current strategic partnership with Morinaga is a great honor for us", said Juergen Steinemann, CEO of Barry Callebaut. "From the new location we can even better serve both Morinaga's chocolate needs and increase our sales volume for third-party customers as we are getting closer to them. This will further strengthen our position in one of Asia's most important chocolate market."
Masayuki Yada, President of Morinaga said, "We feel privileged to extend the current long-term agreement with Barry Callebaut. By outsourcing the chocolate production to Barry Callebaut, we can focus our resources on R&D and marketing of consumer-chocolate, one of our core businesses for further expansion. We are confident that our strategic partnership will create a win-win situation."
In January 2008, Barry Callebaut and Morinaga closed a 10-year supply agreement for 9,000 tonnes a year. As part of the agreement, Barry Callebaut operated a chocolate production facility in Amagasaki. In November 2010, Morinaga announced to focus part of its operations on Takasaki. In order to be close to its main customer, Barry Callebaut decided to follow Morinaga's relocation with its production facilities.
During the next 12 months, Barry Callebaut will invest a total of CHF 18.5 million (EUR 15.4 million / USD 19.4 million). From the new location, Barry Callebaut will serve both third party industrial and Gourmet customers in the highly attractive Japanese chocolate market.
In its Region Asia-Pacific, Barry Callebaut owns and operates today 3 chocolate factories in Singapore (Singapore), Suzhou (China) and Amagasaki (Japan) as well as a combined cocoa and chocolate factory in Port Klang (Malaysia), where the Regional Head Office is located. As part of a joint venture with P.T. Comextra Majora, a new cocoa processing facility is currently being built in Makassar, Sulawesi (Indonesia); operations will start in early 2013. The company also has sales offices in Shanghai (China) and in Mumbai (India). Three of the company's Chocolate Academies are located in Region Asia-Pacific: Mumbai (India), Port Klang (Malaysia) and Suzhou (China).
Morinaga & Co., Ltd. (www.morinaga.co.jp/english/index.html)
Tokyo-based Morinaga was a pioneer who laid the foundation of the confectionery industry in Japan more than a century ago. Its goal is to "deliver value and inspiration to our customers through food". With consolidated annual sales of JPY 147.2 billion (USD 1.9 billion / EUR 1.5 billion / CHF 1.8 billion) for fiscal year 2011/2012 ended in March 2012, the company has four core businesses, confectionery, foodstuffs, frozen desserts, and health products, and numerous well-known and established brands.
Barry Callebaut:
With annual sales of about CHF 4.6 billion (EUR 3.6 billion/USD 5.0 billion) for fiscal year 2010/11, Zurich-based Barry Callebaut is the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality cocoa and chocolate – from the cocoa bean to the finished chocolate product. Barry Callebaut is present in 27 countries, operates around 40 production facilities and employs a diverse and dedicated workforce of about 6,000 people. Barry Callebaut serves the entire food industry focusing on industrial food manufacturers, artisans and professional users of chocolate (such as chocolatiers, pastry chefs or bakers), the latter with its two global brands Callebaut® and Cacao Barry®. Barry Callebaut is the global leader in cocoa and chocolate innovations and provides a comprehensive range of services in the fields of product development, processing, training and marketing. Cost leadership is another important reason why global as well as local food manufacturers work together with Barry Callebaut. Through its broad range of sustainability initiatives and research activities, the company works with farmers, farmer organizations and other partners to help ensure future supplies of cocoa and improve farmer livelihoods.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
The Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ World-Wide was an African-American Oneness Pentecostal denomination started in 1957 in Washington, DC. In 1997, a division over who was the rightful successor to Presiding Bishop and founder Smallwood Edmond Williams occurred. This dispute ultimately led to the splitting of the church into two separate organizations: a church of the same name led by Huie L. Rogers and the International Bible Way Church Of Jesus Christ led by Cornelius Showell.
Before the division in 1995, the church had about 300,000 members in 350 congregations worldwide.[citation needed] The church's chief officer was the Presiding Bishop. Both successor bodies conduct a general conference annually in July and operate a publishing house in Washington, DC.
Beliefs of the Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ and its successors include the inspiration of the Bible as the word of God; salvation made possible only through Jesus Christ; the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues; water baptism by immersion in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; the premillennial second coming of Jesus Christ; the final judgment of the dead; and the establishment of new heavens and a new earth.
The church was led by a Presiding Bishop and a General Assembly. The General Assembly was composed of bishops, overseers, district elders, pastors, elders, ministers, deacons, missionaries, and laity.
The Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ was organized in September 1957 by Smallwood Edmond Williams, who at the time was the General Secretary of the Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith (COOLJC). Under Williams' leadership, about 70 churches withdrew from that organization to form the Bible Way Church, citing the autocratic leadership of COOLJC leader and founder, Bishop Robert C. Lawson. Nearly half of the 177 churches in the organization left and followed Williams. He and four other leading COOLJC ministers were soon formally ordained as bishops in a ceremony performed by Bishop John Holly of the Pentecostal Assemblies of the World. Williams became the first Presiding Bishop of the church.
A division developed over church governance. After the death of Williams in 1991, the church considered Rogers and Campbell each as a potential leader and visionary for the church. The Order of Succession and Constitution, ratified after the death of Williams, stated that both Lawrence Campbell and Rogers would each serve a three-year trial term. Then the church body would vote to see who would be the official successor to Williams. It is generally agreed that, during the trial period, Campbell was selected to serve the first term and Rogers the second.
On July 4, 1997 during the 40th Convocation, the General Assembly voted to retain Rogers and his administration for a "Sabbath" year. The reasoning being that the people voted for Rogers, but the majority of Bishops wanted Campbell. According to Bible Way's rules and regulations, the Board of Bishops can only nominate a person, but the people must vote on it, thus making Rogers the elected Presiding Bishop. The "Sabbath Resolution" was rejected by a majority of the bishops and pastors due to it not being a part of Bible Way policy, effectively killing the measure. This caused a rift in the Executive and General Boards.
There are now two separate and distinct organizations: Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ World Wide, Inc. headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and The International Bible Way Church Of Jesus Christ, Inc., headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland.
Most of the bishops, pastors, and churches stayed with Campbell, and this branch remains the largest entity of the two with approximately 1000 or more churches worldwide as of 2012. In 2006, Bishop Cornelius Showell, pastor of First Apostolic Faith Church in Baltimore was named Presiding Bishop and Chief Apostle of the International Bible Way Church Of Jesus Christ.
Women in International Bible Way Church Of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Campbell began the practice of ordaining women to the office of elder. In July 2006, Showell, appointed Pastor Bonnie Hunter as the first woman District Elder.
In July 2011, Pastor Marcia Fountain (Bridgeport, CT), was appointed as the third woman District Elder.
As of July 2012, Pastor Deborah Barnette-Street, a female pastor from Roxboro North Carolina, is the Diocesan Liaison (of the Central Carolina Diocese) under Apostle Cornelius Showell who serves as the diocese's current Diocesan. She also serves in the office of District Elder in International BibleWay. In addition to being a Diocesan Liaison and District Elder, she is also the Chair of the District Elders for International Bibleway.
Though the organizations are similar in structure and doctrine, the major differences reside in the questions of which of the two leaders is the rightful head of the church, which according to this branch is Showell, being that he is son of a founding father and one of the first five bishops, Bishop Winfield A. Showell.
