Pollution prevention: increasing environmental capabilities of SMEs through collaboration
Bruijn, Theo de and Hofman, Peter S. (2002) Pollution prevention: increasing environmental capabilities of SMEs through collaboration. In: Theo J.N.M. de Bruijn & Arnold Tukker (Eds.), Partnership and Leadership : building alliances for a sustainable future. Eco-efficiency in industry and science, 8 .

|The concept of sustainability increasingly impacts the nature of industry's operations. Whereas in the past sound economic performance was expected to guarantee success by companies and its shareholders, now increasingly business is led by the so-called triple bottom line. Achieving good economic results needs to be accompanied by minimisation of environmental impacts and increasing attention to social aspects. Over the years, environmental management has therefore developed into a strategic issue for industry. Adopting the triple bottom line implies that environmental management in organisations has to go beyond regulatory compliance and needs to include concepts such as pollution prevention, product stewardship and social responsibility.

India's lack of a death-over specialist bowler came back to haunt them on Sunday against Pakistan, who played on the weakness of their archrivals thanks to the moment of magic provided by old guard Shahid Afridi whose two sixes in the last over virtually put India out of the tournament with a 1-wicket defeat.
Legspinner Amit Mishra (2 for 28) bowled superbly to keep India in the game defending a moderate 245 for 8, but Mohammad Hafeez's 75 and a late assault of 34* off 18 balls by Afridi dashed India's hopes of a come-from-behind win.
Mohammad Shami bowled a decent spell of 10 overs with figures of 0 for 49, but that left skipper Virat Kohli with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and R Ashwin to bowl the last three overs, where the game swung like a pendulum before settling in Pakistan's favour.
Pakistan needed 10 off the last over and lost the ninth wicket of Saeed Ajmal off the very first ball, but last man Junaid Khan got the single to give the strike back to Afridi who hit back-to-back sixes and win the game for his team.
The win gave Pakistan their second win in three matches, taking them to the top of the table with nine points. Sri Lanka are now second but still have two games in hand. India are third on the table with four points, ahead of Afghanistan on net run rate but level on points. Bangladesh are fifth with two defeats from as many games.
Afridi, who has been inconsistent with the bat hit the first six over deep extra cover and the next over long on as he scored 34 not out in only 18 balls with two fours and three sixes.
Dinesh Karthik's woeful work behind the stumps again cost India dearly as he missed the easiest of stumpings when Ashwin fired one down leg side with Sohaib Maqsood (38), then batting on 21 coming out of charge. Karthik failed to gather the ball and missed the stumping with Pakistan on 167 for 4.
Hafeez (75) and Maqsood added 87 runs for the fifth wicket and after Karthik fluffed his lines, they added another 37 runs which proved to be important in the context of the game.
From 200 for 4, Pakistan slumped to 203 for 6 but then the winners had couple of profitable couple of overs - 45th and 46th when Ravindra Jadeja and Bhuvneshwar went for 13 runs each.
Earlier, Jadeja (52) hit a timely unbeaten half-century as India recovered from a mid-innings collapse to post a modest 245 for 8 in 50 overs.
Opener Rohit Sharma (56), who finally found his touch after a lean patch, and Ambati Rayudu (58) also did their bit but none of the batsman could make it big. However, India had at least something on board to fight for.
Rayudu scored 58 from 62 balls, while Jadeja was unbeaten on 52 from 42 balls.
Experienced spinner Ajmal (3 for 40) bowled nicely in the death overs to remove three batsmen while debutant pacer Mohammad Talha (2 for 22) and offspinner Hafeez (2 for 38) took two wickets apiece.
India now only have a mathematical chance of reaching the final, which depends on results other than than their last match against Afghanistan on March 5.

Matrix Awards Honor Media's Firebrands
New York Women in Communications held its 2013 Matrix Awards on Monday with a luncheon at the Waldorf-Astoria in midtown Manhattan emceed by Joan Rivers. Awardees ranged from Audra McDonald, a Broadway actress and singer, to Joanna Coles, editor in chief of Cosmopolitan magazine. Celebrity presenters turned out as well: Ryan Seacrest, New York mayoral hopeful Christine Quinn, and Barry Diller, the CEO of IAC (which owns Newsweek and The Daily Beast). One of Newsweek's 125 Women of Impact was also recognized: Bonnie Hammer, the chairman of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment Group. In a speech about the trajectory of more experienced professionals, she noted the change in drive that she and a peer have experienced, gaining focus and losing the anxiety that had dominated the middle years of their careers. Now, she says, they feel as excited and passionate about the business as they had when they first started. "After the early years," she lamented, "the joy is too often drowned out by a lot of clamor."

Reflecting During Black History Month
Growing up, my parents were my role models, the people I most admired for their work ethic, compassion and dedication to providing for our family. They taught me that the station in life you are born into isn't where you have to remain if you are willing to work hard and dream big. The lessons they imparted have profoundly influenced the type of husband, father and man that I have become.
Living through a tumultuous period in our nation's history, where a person's color still mattered more than the content of their heart, my parents treated others with the respect and dignity that they were sometimes denied. It was a valuable lesson that I have kept with me to this day. Scripture says be subject to one another, treat others the way you wished to be treated and that is exactly what my parents did and taught me to do.
As a child, I remember my father laboring tirelessly to provide for our family. Never wavering or waning, he subscribed to the creed that work was redemptive and corrective. Only in the most extreme and dire instances did he ever miss a day of work. Likewise, my mother dedicated herself to civic involvement and demonstrated that by her years of service as an officer in the local Democratic Club. It was there that my interest in public service and civic responsibility first began to take shape.
It is their example that encourages me during tough economic times where it has been shown again and again that people have an amazing capacity to do what hasn't been done before.
As a husband, father, and elected official of the people of southeast Queens and the state of New York, I continue to apply the principles my parents taught me. I carry those lessons with me as I seek to do what they did for me - make tomorrow better than today.
Malcolm Smith
Senate Majority Leader
Madam C.J. Walker
Growing up you learn about common Black historical figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks. Not to say that their achievements are any less than amazing, but I feel that there are so many other Black people who are worthy of mention.
Unfortunately, I can only name one person and although she is wellknown, many still aren't aware of her story. Madam C.J. Walker, who is also known as Sarah Breedlove, always stuck out in my mind as a teenager. It is true that every woman is different and has a different texture of hair. There are so many black hair care products that are present today and without the advancements made by Madam C.J. Walker I don't know if those hair care companies would even exist. I know there are many other people to choose from, but Madam C.J. Walker did not only revolutionize Black hair care, she was a successful entrepreneur during times when race may have been valued more than talent. She is an inspiration for me to be determined and strive for the highest goal. She is also a reminder to me that it is important to help those within your community and beyond and to leave a legacy behind.
Keisha Frazier,
Temple University Student
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
"I Have a Dream" are the words that seem to resonate in my mind as a young man growing up in a time that violence, injustice and fear overshadowed my community - and still seems this way today.
"I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together," said Martin Luther King Jr.
I have carried these words in my heart for the past 25 years in my daily walk within the community and abroad.
As a 12-year-old, who was blessed to travel to Haiti on a missionary trip, I realized at an early age that if we all take a second out of our busy schedule to help someone in need, things could change.
Dr. King provided me with the formula to want to make a difference in the community. The ingredients in the formula consist of fearlessness, love, and faith.
I have learned and continue to embrace these when working with Councilman Sanders to address issues in our community.
At the age of 25, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. started to sink his footsteps into the sand of American history. From the Montgomery Bus Boycott to the March on Washington, Dr. King was not afraid to walk into the lions den to ensure equality for Blacks seeking freedom. Perhaps if more of our leaders weren't afraid to get into the den, our community wouldn't be held hostage by drug dealers and dope peddlers.
Have we fulfilled Dr. King's Dream? This year I believe with President Obama being elected, we have started to see Dr. King's dream fulfilled partially. However, there is still a lot more work to be done. I plan to continue to work until the dream is fulfilled 100 percent.

I heard the screams first, then saw the men and children wielding sticks and throwing rocks.
The men and children shouted as they ran down a busy road in the east of Basra towards a group of men lingering beside a pile of dusty rubble.
"Fedayeen," the crowd screamed. "Death to the fedayeen."
Two men broke loose and started running towards us, cowering from the stones.
One man had a trickle of blood running down his forehead and nose. The blood dripped on to his chequered white and black scarf.
Rocks rained around us, crashing against our car and flying over my head as I ducked behind the bumper.
Then the chase began. Down the street the two men ran, a crowd of about 50 on their tail.
As Western Daily Press photographer Jon Mills came within metres of one suspect, the man pulled out a pistol.
Mills said: "I could see immediately, from the look in his eyes, he was not going to use it. He thought he was going to die.
"The man wanted to give up the weapon, but he knew the crowd would shoot him with it if he dropped it. He was seriously scared, pleading for his life."
The man hid his pistol again, then ran towards a car. At the height of his fear, he had found a saviour. He fell into the car, which sped away.
The other man was now alone. He stopped, turned to face his enemy - and was beaten to the ground.
Within seconds, the crowd had surrounded him, thrashing at him with sticks, metal pipes and their boots. A large wound opened up in the back of his head, matting his black hair and turning his sweat-stained brown shirt scarlet.
Then the people fetched a blue cart and the blows quietened as they dumped him in the back of it. They wanted to parade him - a symbol of Saddam's evil regime.
He looked up, his eyes glazed over as the blur of another stick beat his body. He did not blink.
Nor did he groan or shout - he simply sat, crumpled in the cart as the crowd argued over what to do with him.
Then around the corner roared a convoy of tanks and soldiers from the 7th Armoured Brigade.
Soldiers quickly cleared the crowds, took the man from the cart and bundled him into the armoured vehicle.
As the fedayeen suspect looked on in the back of the vehicle, his face was etched with shock and bewilderment. The British had saved his life.

Nokia Creates The Personal Internet

[Posted by Shar VanBoskirk]
In this morning's opening remarks and keynote sessions, Olli-Pekka Kallasvio introduced the theme for Nokia World and the primary driver of Nokia's: To translate the internet into *your* internet. This means not only enabling customization of sites or content, but of course literally getting any information *you* need to live your life directly into your pocket.
Phrased differently, Nokia wants to put in your hand the power to be more in tune to the world around you.
Toward this mission, Nokia announced today three new products:
1) The Nokia n97 -- a 48 GB, 3.5 inch pocket computer complete with touchsreen that tilts up to reveal a full keyboard.
2) A new Nokia Maps -- a mobile mapping technology which provides global navigation, travel guides, multiple mapping types and location-based content. It is intended to have dedicated utilities for drivers and walkers, and links to Nokia Ovi to allow for collaboration with any of the management activities consumers conduct via Ovi.
3) Advanced messaging -- Nokia will now support mobile email and text messaging via Yahoo, MSN, Google, AOL and thousands of smaller or local ISPs.
The buzz around the event is that people are enamored with the n97, and I will admit (non-gadget person that I am) I thought it was pretty cool. But, not as a substiturte for my laptop (which is how Nokia introduced it). The n97's value is that it enables the types of socal and entertainment behaviors consumers inherently value. It introduces the concept of 'social location' ("So-Lo") -- that is it can identify where its user is and where contacts of that user are. It also is specifically designed for social networking, email, messaging, music, photos, video playing and content sharing.
The mapping capability is less splashy than the n97, but indicates another strategic priority of Nokia's: to provide rich content to consumers, as well as devices. This device also revolves around tying location to communities and social activities; its not just another GPS tool. And, as a pedestrian commuter, I loved the special features for walkers. For example, walking directions are based on wifi location sensors and will direct you through buildings, parks, on pedestrian pathways...not just on the main roads of an area.
Messaging came off as the most altruistic of the three announcements. Nokia's mission: "to bring messaging to developing nations." Conversation got a little carried away (Specifically Lee Williams Nominated Director of the Symbian Foundation -- an organization focused on managing and launching an opensource mobile operating system) -- described Nokia's announcements as applications that will bring communications to "people in developing nations who spend their days searching for clean water for their family") around the political and social cure-all that this tool could be. But, cutting through all of that (unnessary) loftiness, it does seem a practical and simple utility that will aid business and consumer messaging -- regardless of your existing messaging platform.

David…… Plouffed?Come on, Campaign Manager to Barack Obama? The man who will, without a doubt, be referenced in history books and is the talk of people everywhere in the business and political world just plain forgot this detail?The enormity of what has occurred is mind blowing. David Plouffe tentatively calls his book Audacity to Win as a reference to Obama's The Audacity of Hope. Why would Mr. Plouffe release this to the associated press last week without first having purchased the name in its internet domain form?Isn't this, most certainly a case of you should "practice what you preach?"I bought the domain http://www.Audacitytowin.com this is where the debate begins! Was he Plouffed? Or did a small town girl force the "marketing guru" to change his book's title?Submitted byKate

Toyota executives help build 160 homes in Laguna
It was a happy Christmas for 160 families of Santa Rosa City in Laguna who received their own homes from Toyota Motor Philippines Corp. and its partner organizations in December.
TMP teamed up with Toyota Motor Philippines Foundation, Gawad Kalinga and the city government of Sta. Rosa to build a mass housing project for the poor residents of the city. Toyota turned over 160 units in the Toyota-City of Sta. Rosa-GK Village in Pulong Sta. Cruz to the new homeowners a week before Christmas.
"This project is our way of giving back to the society which gave us so many opportunities for business growth. This event is the culmination of Toyota's 25th year celebration which becomes more meaningful as we celebrate it with you, our community partners and beneficiaries," Toyota Motor Philippines president and chief executive Michinobu Sugata said during the turnover rites.
In less than two years of preparation and man-work hours contributed by beneficiaries of the housing project, Toyota Foundation awarded the final set of mass housing units to deserving families from villages of Pulong Sta. Cruz and Malitlit.
The Toyota-City of Santa Rosa-GK Village is a project built by the local government of Santa Rosa and Gawad Kalinga. Toyota donated P22 million for the construction of the socialized housing units and a multi-purpose hall inside the village.
The city government of Santa Rosa, led by Mayor Arlene Arcillas, donated the land for the project site. The total land area covers 8,000 square meters, of which around 5,000 sq.m. were allocated for housing and 3,000 sq. m. for the development of a common area where a park, school, community center, and multi-purpose hall are being constructed.
As the lead coordinator for the project, GK implements the housing program, covering engineering and construction management. It is also in charge of coordinating other programs for health, education and livelihood for the beneficiaries.
Gawad Kalinga chairman and founder Tony Meloto said the village would be a showcase for Toyota to the world that their commitment goes beyond their manufacturing plants "because, you see, the global economy now demands from multinationals greater social impact. And that is what Toyota did with this humanitarian effort of providing shelter to the homeless."
Gawad Kalinga, which means "to give care" in Filipino, is a Philippine-based poverty-alleviation and nation-building movement that builds integrated, holistic and sustainable communities in impoverished areas. Started in 1995, GK is now being implemented in almost 2,000 communities in the Philippines and in 11 other countries.
The housing units have been assigned to beneficiaries who have met the required sweat equity or man-work hours dedicated to the construction of the units in exchange for the material and logistical support.
As a GK rule, each beneficiary is expected to render at least 2,500 man-hours equivalent in sweat equity before his unit is awarded to him. Beneficiaries provide sweat equity so that there is a sense of ownership and unity and they work on the structures together.
This also leads to sustainability, because the families build relationships with each other and take great efforts to maintain the structures that they worked hard for.
Toyota Foundation donated P20 million for the construction of 160 socialized housing units and another P2 million to fund the construction of a multi-purpose hall inside the village.
The Toyota-City of Santa Rosa-GK Village project is a corporate social responsibility initiative that champions Toyota's advocacy in community development:
The project also complements Toyota's strategy of involving the Toyota Networ—Toyota Motor Philippines, dealers and suppliers—during the actual construction of houses, creating awareness and encouraging active participation from members of the Toyota Team.
"We would like to thank our partners and countless volunteers from various sectors of the Philippine society as well as corporate and non-governmental organizations from abroad who spent their precious time and efforts to be part of this noble undertaking. Let us make Toyota- City of Santa Rosa-GK Village a model community that transforms the lives of its residents," Sugata said.

Amy's Bio
Words cannot describe how it warms my heart to see children thrive in a positive environment, laugh til they cry and overall love life. I was in the Air Force for 8 years and half of my enlistment was me working as an EMT. I absolutely loved every minute of it! I have 4 semesters of nursing and clinical experience under my belt at the University of Memphis. I graduated in 2007 with my A A degree. I have a handful of nieces/nephews and friends with children from all ages and have enjoyed watching and helping them grow to the amazing children/young adults they are today. With that being said, I have experience with all ages and have watched up to 5 children/preteens/teenagers at a time. I also have clinical experience with geriatrics with and without special needs. For the past 2 years I have worked in the home of a man who has MS and is wheelchair dependent. I am very comfortable and competent with my skills and abilities to care for your loved one. Children and adults seem to love me just as much as I love them. I am energetic and like to have a fun time with the children I watch. I try not only to be their nanny/sitter but also their friend. If you have any other questions or concerns please don't hesitate to ask. I am a open book! Have plenty of references, can pass a background and drug test. Thanks! :)
