What the Falcons' 34-23 win over the Packers means for a pair of NFC favorites
The Falcons moved to 2-0, kept beating up on the Packers, and opened up Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a win all in the same night on Sunday. In the first regular season NFL game at Atlanta's bananas new field, the Falcons beat Green Bay, 34-23.
"You can see the pure passion that he has," said Del Rio. "These are his people. These are my people. He played well. I know he was really happy to have his first game go like that."
Beast Mode earned his nickname in Seattle where he spent six seasons and had the best years of his career, including four Pro Bowls and a Super Bowl ring. Even then, he has never been this happy.
"I don't think I've ever seen him dance like that," said Bruce Irvin, who was teammates with Lynch in Seattle. "He never did that in Seattle. I guess cuz he's at home . . . He is Oakland so, that was a great thing to see."
Lynch finished with 45 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries while the Raiders spread the carries around to Jalen Richard, DeAndre Washington, and Cordarrelle Patterson.
As much as we've made this day all about Lynch, he was more hesitant to take the spotlight. From the very start, he entered with Richard and Washington and let Derek Carr have the final entrance.

The total number of both domestic and foreign non-life insurers active in Japan has not changed substantially over the last few years, but new entries and withdrawals from the market, changing capital investments, new affiliations with existing insurers, the announcement of merger plans, and other developments have been regular occurrences.
In all, some 36 domestic insurers (including five foreign-capitalised insurers) and 28 foreign insurers operating on a branch or agency basis were active in the non-life insurance business in Japan on August 1, 2000. However, while the number of companies has been stable, their sales force has contracted significantly, in order to achieve overall gains in efficiency. With the progress of liberalisation of the market, each non-life insurer has had to explore ways to boost its competitive power, and has been forced to make stringent efforts to hold down costs by promoting efficiency and rationalisation of its management. Agency forces have not been exempt, a reality evidenced by the decline in numbers of inefficient agents. In total, the number of non-life insurance agents, as of the end of March 2000, was 570,919, a decrease of 22,953, or 3.9%, from the previous year.
Premiums slide
Meanwhile revenues are continuing to slip, also a by-product of liberalisation. Total direct premiums written by domestic non-life insurers for fiscal 1999 amounted to ¥9,200.2 billion, down 2.8% from the previous year. Though the decrease is an improvement over fiscal 1998, which recorded a fall of 6.7%, the negative trend has continued for three consecutive years, due to the effects of premium rate liberalisation, ensuing competition, and prolonged economic inactivity. In contrast, direct premiums written by foreign non-life insurers for fiscal 1999 amounted to ¥313 billion, representing an increase of 5.9% from the previous year. This is an ongoing trend. By using television and newspaper advertising foreign insurers have raised their profile and strengthened their presence in the Japanese non-life market.
On the other hand, net claims paid by domestic non-life insurers for fiscal 1999 totalled ¥3,725.1 billion, an increase of 3.0%. This was mainly attributable to an increase in claims paid on fire insurance policies due to the impact of Typhoon Bart last summer, which resulted in the second largest claims payment – some ¥314.7 billion – ever recorded in Japan. The only more costly event was Typhoon Mireille in 1991, which cost ¥567.5 billion. The overall loss ratio in fiscal 1999 was 59.3%, a 1.8 point increase from the previous year, while the operating expense ratio stood at 38.6%, a 0.7 point decrease.
The pace of change
When the new Insurance Business Law took effect in April 1996, nobody expected that liberalisation of the Japanese insurance market would move with such amazing speed. However, with the subsequent announcement of the Japanese "Big Bang" plan in November 1996, the Japanese financial market, including non-life insurance, sprinted towards liberalisation. The results of the Japan-US insurance talks in December 1996 accelerated liberalisation of the non-life market, though restricting life and non-life insurance subsidiaries of Japanese insurers from entering into the so-called third sector, comprising personal accident, medical, and nursing care insurance.
Subsequently, based on the report submitted by the Insurance Council in June 1997, and with the Financial System Reform Bill approved at the Diet in June 1998, substantial reform of the non-life insurance rating organisation system was implemented in July 1998. Thus, unlike liberalisation in other markets, it took only a few years in Japan to establish the framework for liberalisation, and to implement it market-wide.
A highly competitive market has continued in the commercial insurance field, especially in such areas as fire, earthquake, general liability, and workers' compensation. This was brought about by the introduction of the comprehensive approval of endorsements and the notification system for commercial risks. As a result, non-life insurers are able to provide corporate customers with coverage that meets their needs quickly and flexibly.
As for personal insurances, the substantial reform of the rating organisation system in July 1998 triggered a dramatic era of competition in the Japanese non-life insurance market, with various types of products and services being launched, especially in voluntary motor. The first motor policies with differentiated premium rates were put on the market in September 1997. Emphasising lower premiums than other insurers, such as a 42% premium discount according to the risk category, this type of policy has been distributed mainly by foreign or foreign-capitalised insurers through direct sales.
On the other hand, some domestic insurers have since developed new and unique types of motor policies and services. Examples of these are bodily injury compensation cover, unlimited property damage liability cover, temporary substitute motor expenses coverage, a 24-hour telephone service to register traffic accidents, and maturity-refund-type voluntary motor policies, among others. Recently some companies have announced that they will move to their own motor policies with original premium rates, totally independent from the rating organisation.
New channels
Distribution channels have also diversified in line with liberalisation. In addition to existing agency sales, direct and mail-order sales through newspapers, magazines, television, and other media have been introduced. Internet services in such areas as motor and personal accident now provide insurance information, calculation of premiums, and policy application formats. Post offices will distribute compulsory automobile liability insurance policies for private motorcycles from April 1, 2001, and insurance distribution by banks and other financial services providers will be permitted on the same day, though the types of insurance to be distributed through the banks will be discussed by the Financial Council.
On January 1, 2001, measures to prevent radical changes in the third sector, which were obliged to be maintained as a result of the Japan-US insurance talks, will be lifted. Thus insurers in Japan, both life and non-life, will be allowed to deal with the third sector cover. Furthermore, following the radical review of the non-life agency system in May 2000, personal qualifications and agency classifications for agents, which currently provide a common standard for the non-life industry and the level of agency commissions dependent on agency classifications, will be abolished in April 2001.
New entries into the Japanese non-life market, including companies from overseas and other business sectors, and affiliations with non-life insurers, have increased. Recent major examples include the following:
On the other hand, withdrawals have also taken place, including Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance Japan Co, Union des Assurances de Paris, Ansvar Mutual Insurance Co, and CGU International Insurance plc, to name only some.
Liberalisation has brought about changes in the management of non-life insurers, thus encouraging them to reorganise their business structure and management policies. These involve such merger plans as that between Mitsui Marine & Fire Insurance Co and Sumitomo Marine & Fire Insurance Co in October 2001, and plans to merge Nippon Fire & Marine Insurance Co with Koa Fire & Marine Insurance Co, Dai-Tokyo Fire & Marine Insurance Co with Chiyoda Fire & Marine Insurance Co, and Dowa Fire Insurance Co with Meiji General Insurance Co, all in April 2001. Cross-sector affiliations between life and non-life insurance companies have also been announced, such as those between Sumitomo Mutual Life Insurance Co and Sumitomo Marine & Fire Insurance Co. The expansion of business relations between Dowa Fire & Marine Insurance Co and Nippon Mutual Life Insurance Co was also announced.

What Is a Smile Makeover?
How important is your smile? When you meet someone, it's likely the first thing they notice. It's an outward reflection of how you feel on the inside. If your smile is reluctant or self-conscious, that affects how people see you and treat you.
Cosmetic dentistry is less about having "perfect" teeth — though we will do our best to give that to you too — than it is about having a smile that you want to show off and flaunt freely!
At Synergy Dental Center of Gillette, WY, we offer a full menu of cosmetic procedures to transform your smile. Maybe your grin's in generally good shape and you need just a little touchup. And that's fine — all of our procedures are available a la carte.
But perhaps you have more going on and would benefit from multiple cosmetic techniques. That's where a Smile Makeover comes in. And it is just what it sounds like: a full transformation, using whichever cosmetic procedures you and Dr. Porter decide will give you the smile of your dreams. Goodbye, embarrassment. You won't be able to stop smiling.
To schedule a consultation, call 307-682-3100.
Synergy's Smile Makeover Menu
At your consultation, Dr. Porter will conduct a full examination, and you will discuss what you would like your finished smile to look like. You will together form a treatment plan using a combination of the following procedures.
Teeth Contouring. This is a simple and painless technique that involves removing small amounts of enamel from the ends of teeth to alter their shape or length. It's a subtle but effective way to smooth small imperfections and repair chips or rough edges. Because Dr. Porter will be removing only the outer layers of the teeth, no anesthesia is required.
Crown Lengthening. This procedure, in which Dr. Porter removes small amounts of gum tissue to expose more of the tooth, is sometimes done to prepare a tooth for a filling or crown. But it can also be done for cosmetic purposes.
Gummy Smile Treatment. Are you unhappy with how prominent your gums appear when you smile? At Synergy Dental Center, we can sculpt your gumline so that it looks just how you want it using a process called gum reshaping therapy.
Teeth Whitening. We offer two excellent teeth whitening systems by Kor. Our in-office treatment will give you the results you want in just one visit. If you are in a hurry for your brilliant white smile, this is definitely the way to go!
The take-home kit takes a little more time, but the end results are just as good. It utilizes whitening trays custom made for your mouth, so they are comfortable and more effective than the store-bought variety. The professional-strength gel contains more whitening agent than drugstore brands, so it works faster and better. The in-office and take-home kits can even be used together.
Orthodontics. Dr. Porter has gone through extensive training in orthodontics, and we are proud to be able to offer several options to our patients. Six Month Smiles braces are discreet — using clear brackets and tooth-colored wires — and do their job in (you guessed it) six months. ClearCorrect and Invisalign both utilize clear removable aligners to move your teeth into the desired position over the course of about a year. Dr. Porter will be happy to discuss the pros and cons of each orthodontic product, and which one may make the most sense for you.
Veneers. Veneers are a surefire way to a truly showstopping smile. A veneer is a thin, tooth-colored shell that is placed over the front of the tooth, covering discoloration, chips, gaps, worn-down teeth, and even minor alignment problems. At Synergy Dental Center, we offer three veneer types:
- Traditional porcelain veneers require the removal of a thin layer of enamel from the teeth and are permanent.
- eMax Veneers are extra thin and need minimal prep, but are considered to be stronger than traditional veneers.
- EasySmile LifeLike Veneers are prepless, meaning they do not require enamel removal. They are made in-office and are less expensive, and are removeable.
Botox and Dermal Fillers. We can even help get rid of your laugh lines and wrinkles with Botox or dermal fillers! Your skin will be firmer and younger looking with these simple procedures.
Ready to dazzle your friends, family, and the world with your Smile Makeover from Synergy Dental Center? Fill out our online form to schedule a consultation or call our Gillette, WY office at 307-682-3100.

Today, one percent of the people in the United States (plus the 0.001% of the world's elite) are dedicated to creating as much chaos, misery, and death as is possible.
Numerically balancing those crazed and certifiable psychopaths there is another one percent of Americans who daily find proofs of crimes in high places and hotly disagree with them.
In between that rigid dichotomy sleeps the bulk of US humanity, the ninety-eight percent. Apathetic and ignorant, these poor souls do not know what to think so they do not think. Their sad indifference adds much weight to the order of the day a severe oppression of the ninety-nine percent of us.
The destructive and parasitic one-percenters have other advantages: their universal control of money and credit, their ubiquitous media, their schools, churches, medicine, and science, and, of course, their control of national governments.
How large a cohesive force do you think our enlightened and brave one-percenters would have to be to mount a serious challenge to the controlling one-percenters?
Historians tell us that the Colonies of America had a population of two and a half million people, with only a third of them actually supporting our revolution against the foreign bankers and their vassal state of Great Britain.
A sudden increase of the informed freedom fighters leaping from one percent to thirty-three percent seems unrealistic … until one takes into account the World Wide Web, something our freedom-fighting colonists did not have.- See more at: http://www.rense.com/general96/battleground.htm#sthash.8MwyThgV.dpuf

Reprobing of an existing membrane is a convenient means to immunoblot for multiple proteins independently when only a limited amount of sample is available. It should be noted that for the best possible results a fresh blot is always recommended. Reprobing can be a valuable method but with each reprobing of a blot there is potential for increased background signal. Additionally, it is recommended that you verify the removal of the first antibody complex prior to reprobing so that signal attributed to binding of the new antibody is not leftover signal from the first immunoblotting experiment. This can be done by re-exposing the blot to ECL reagents and making sure there is no signal prior to adding the next primary antibody.
NOTE: Prepare solutions with reverse osmosis deionized (RODI) or equivalently purified water.

HER2/ErbB2 (D8F12) XP® Rabbit mAb (Biotinylated) detects endogenous levels of total HER2/ErbB2 protein.Species Reactivity:
Human, MouseSpecies predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology:
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human HER2/ErbB2 protein.
The ErbB2 (HER2) proto-oncogene encodes a 185 kDa transmembrane, receptor-like glycoprotein with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity (1). While ErbB2 lacks an identified ligand, ErbB2 kinase activity can be activated in the absence of a ligand when overexpressed and through heteromeric associations with other ErbB family members (2). Amplification of the ErbB2 gene and overexpression of its product are detected in almost 40% of human breast cancers (3). Binding of the c-Cbl ubiquitin ligase to ErbB2 at Tyr1112 leads to ErbB2 poly-ubiquitination and enhances degradation of this kinase (4). ErbB2 is a key therapeutic target in the treatment of breast cancer and other carcinomas and targeting the regulation of ErbB2 degradation by the c-Cbl-regulated proteolytic pathway is one potential therapeutic strategy. Phosphorylation of the kinase domain residue Tyr877 of ErbB2 (homologous to Tyr416 of pp60c-Src) may be involved in regulating ErbB2 biological activity. The major autophosphorylation sites in ErbB2 are Tyr1248 and Tyr1221/1222; phosphorylation of these sites couples ErbB2 to the Ras-Raf-MAP kinase signal transduction pathway (1,5).

OTS Logistics Group announces major acquisition with eye on China
Global ocean
freight powerhouse acquires the business of leading ocean freight
consolidator Ocean World Shipping in Hong Kong; will gain access to
largest network of neutral freight consolidation in China.
OTS Logistics Group (OTS LG) announced it had completed the
acquisition of the assets and business of Ocean World Shipping (OWS) in
Hong Kong. Ocean World Shipping is a pre-eminent consolidator of ocean
freight services with a network servicing eight locations in China and is the
leading provider of neutral consolidation services in that country. The
acquisition of the business also gives OTS LG access to the network in
"This is a vital progression in the global system of logistics services that we are stitching together", Mr. Owen Glenn, Chairman of OTS Logistics Group said. "The acquisition will add over 1 million cubic meters of LCL freight to our network. The significance of this volume is the economy of scale that we will now be able to offer our customers that is unmatched in the market place". Mr Glenn has stated recently that the group has a revenue target of USD 1 billion in the next few years. "Of course this acquisition helps us to get closer to that goal but the key point is that we now have a network of leading players that links two of the most dynamic economies in the world today – China and the USA. We can add substantial value to shippers and consignees on either side and make the supply chain so much more efficient. We have now put in place one of the largest networks of point-to-point services, including pre-carriage, ocean freight and destination services, in the world."
OTS LG plans to bring the service methods and technology that has made its own offices and agents so successful, particularly in the USA, to the locations currently serviced by OWS.
"We were particularly attracted to the processes and systems that have made the OTS Logistics Group a leading global player in deciding that this transaction made sense for our customers", Mr Thomas Tong, President of OWS, said. "Collaborative technologies are vital to success in todays logistics game. Even though many companies talk about linking systems together, very few succeed. OTS Logistics Group offered us a vision of shared systems that was very attractive to our own growth plans."
The group plans to keep the OWS brand operational. "The OWS brand is
successful in the market place. Our systems already accommodate multiple
brands and we have a history of leveraging brand loyalty into back-office
efficiency", Mr. Michael Dye, CEO of OTS Logistics Group for the Asia
Pacific, said. "Look at our other brands – Brennan, Conterm, Direct
Container Line and Vanguard. DCL has a 27-year history while Vanguard is a
relatively new brand and yet we are able to successfully share back-office
systems. We know how to keep brands distinct and will continue to let OWS
customers experience the unique service and customer satisfaction that
they are used to."
OTS Logistics Group recently announced that its subsidiary, Vanguard Logistics, had acquired a Class A license in Zhuhai, China and that group level senior management would now be located in Hong Kong. Zhuhai is a focal point for the group – a substantial investment is planned there in the form of a Global Resource Center that will provide support facilities for its global network. The company will continue to pursue acquisition opportunities in Asia and elsewhere.
Vanguard Logistics strengthens focus on corporate development
anguard Logistics Australia, a member of the OTS Logistics Group, announced the newly created position of General Manager of Corporate Development in the South Pacific. Vince Argenzio, who was the Regional Vice President for NACA Logistics (USA) Inc., which represents OTS Logistics Group in the United States, has taken the position. Argenzio's new role will place a higher level of seniority on-site by elevating corporate support based in the Melbourne office.
Chairman of the OTS Logistics Group, Owen Glenn, further explained the significance of the position and the direction the company is taking, "Moving Vince Argenzio into the corporate development function will add the high-level resources we need to support our corporate clients. His task is to provide the focus in servicing the needs of larger customers who have complicated needs and whose requirements don't fall into our regular service offerings, regardless of how high the quality of that service is. These customers need personal attention from us in putting together customized service offerings, whether these relate to points of service, types of value-added services, exception management or special reporting. Typical customers that fall into this category will have cargo from and to many different points in the world, will need customized solutions and typically will be supporting optimized supply chains for their own clients – which means that reliability of service is paramount to their needs. Vince will help develop these customized solutions and ensure that our global organization supports them".
Argenzio's new responsibilities comprise a wide range of functions for the organization; however, his first objective will be furthering the development of the region.
An Australian citizen, Argenzio originally came to the United States with AFS and has been stationed with the NACA Logistics (USA) Inc. Los Angeles office since the company acquired assets of AFS in 2000.
"It has been a terrific experience at this post and I will certainly miss the friendships I have made here and keep contact, but it is time to return and I am ready for this position," commented Argenzio.
OTS Logistics Group has announced it will soon open the doors
to the company's Global Resource Center (GRC) in Zhuhai, China. The center
will operate with over 120 staff members, which will mainly be dedicated
to database management to support offices worldwide.
Chairman of the OTS Logistics Group recently met with O'Brien, Biju Kewalram, Chief Executive Officer of Asia Pacific Michael J Dye, Regional Managing Director of East Asia Michael Tsui and Regional Managing Director
of South Asia Gordon Tsang, Regional Chief Financial Officer for East Asia to finalize plans for the centers launch.
Director of Technical Services Michael Gomez left in late May to set up the local IT infrastructure and will connect the GRC to the existing Global network.
Belden International outsources supply-chain management to Vanguard Logistics
anguard Logistics Services accepted appointment by Belden International Inc., Singapore subsidiary of Belden CDT (NYSE: BDC) a leading manufacturer of data networking and connectivity products with global revenues in excess of USD 1 billion, to manage the company's inventory operations in Singapore. Vanguard will extend its current handling of Belden's inbound freight to also handle warehousing of the cargo, pick and pack operations and receiving and filling Belden's orders to its customers on a daily basis.
Belden International Inc. decided to pass management of these functions on to Vanguard after a steady 10-year business relationship. To accommodate the goods it will handle for Belden, Vanguard signed a lease for a new 11,500 square-foot warehouse that can house 2,000 pallets.
"I am pleased that we were able to get everything underway so quickly," said Roy Chew, Regional Managing Director for Vanguard Logistics in South Asia, "The arrangements for the warehouse are in place and our staff are experienced professionals trained to support the scope of logistics services that Belden will require."
Chairman creates a foundation to
aid underprivileged areas with financial support.
Chairman of the OTS Logistics Group, Owen Glenn, announced the development of the Glenn Family Foundation, a charity organization focused on helping improve the quality of life at an individual level.
The Glenn Family Foundation's first project was to help Anandapally Village, located just outside Calcutta where Glenn was born. Glenn traveled with Foundation representatives to assess the needs of the region. After speaking with local education and church figures, the group concluded it was important to begin by improving shelter in the village.
The first phase of the plan was to reinforce buildings to withstand monsoon season. The Foundation then
moved to help raise the economic stability of the village by aiding residents in starting a sewing business. The Foundation will fund the construction of a building to house sewing machines and donate fabric and thread for families to set the business in motion. Sister Cynthia, who heads the church in Anandapally Village, played an integral part in guiding the Glenn Family Foundation in determining the needs of the village. The Foundation has already gone through with several projects and a hand full more are in progress.
The Foundation also announced a $12,000 donation to construct a community center in "Picnic Garden", in the eastern outskirts of Calcutta. The Foundation accepted the proposal for the center by Father Elias D'Mello, Parish Priest of a church in Calcutta where Glenn participated as an alter boy.
"I grew up in Park Street, just south of Park Circus. It is pleasing to note the Picnic Garden location is close," Glenn told Father D'Mello.
|OTS Logistics Group supports Australian heritage with fundraiser
hairman of the OTS Logistics Group Owen Glenn attended a Black Tie and Pearls Dinner with sailing legend Dennis Connor on May 17. The memorable evening was in aid of the Sydney Heritage Fleet, which is a non-profit organization that cares for 11 historical vessels. The Fleet receives no government funding and relies solely on its charter and display activities and donations. For this reason Mr. Glenn agreed for OTS Logistics Group to be the main sponsor for the event.
Owen Glenn dances with his mother, Decima, at the fundraiser held May 17, 2005.
Mr. Glenn said he actively supports many charitable causes and conservation initiatives as he sees philanthropy as an invaluable and fulfilling social obligation.
Mr. Glenn's decision to sponsor the Heritage Fleet in
Sydney, where he now resides, is best described in the Fleet's Mission Statement, 'To build and maintain an internationally recognized centre of excellence in maritime heritage for Australians by presenting through research, acquisition, conservation, restoration and operation our continuing maritime history.'
Other top Australian celebrities who attended included Alan Bond, Colin Beashel, John Eales, Ian Kiernan, Nick Farr-Jones and Iain Murray. The KJ Allstars Swing Orchestra provided the entertainment for the evening with swing classics from the likes of Gershwin, Cole Porter and Glenn Miller. The evening was a successful in aiding a well deserving cause.
The evening raised funds for the Fleet through silent and live auctions. Some of the silent items were artworks by Pablo Picasso, Raoul Dufy and David Boyd whereas the live auction included a Captains Dinner on the James Craig, a corporate sailing day, a signed America's Cup shirt, Autore South Sea Pearls and even an Alfa Romeo. A raffle was also held to raise money. The winner received a KIA Rio plus an all expenses paid six-night stay on board the 112-foot luxury motor yacht Ubiquitous. This alone raised just over USD 15,116.20 (AUD 20,000).
anguard Logistics Services (VLS) New Zealand created a new tool, which won the group a one-month trial to gain all Pacific Island exports from Australia's largest provider of scientific instruments and consumables, Biolab.
"Biolab exports in excess of 400 consignments a year to the Greater Pacific region so gaining this trial is a huge complement," said Nigel Black who oversees retail sales for Vanguard in Auckland.
To save Biolab time in obtaining pricing information, the Vanguard Customer Service team designed a Freight Calculator in Excel at the suggestion of Pat Munoz, General Manager of VLS New Zealand. Prior to the Freight Calculator, Biolab had to email an order through to their forwarder and then waited for a freight quotation before quoting their own client and seeking a booking confirmation.
This calculator provides Biolab with an accurate price
for service from Auckland to airport or
wharf destinations by entering the weight of the consignment for airfreight
or cubic measurement for seafreight.
The calculator was designed in Excel so it could be easily used by anyone. Biolab now quickly determines the freight cost on the Freight Calculator and sends a booking request to Vanguard New Zealand.
"We know that to provide the best possible customer service, a company must save the client time. This new tool will speed up the process an incredible amount," Black added.
Vanguard Australia lights confidence of British American Tobacco
Vanguard Logistics earns business from British American Tobacco, one of the largest international tobacco groups.
British American Tobacco (BAT) chose Vanguard as the sole handler for all BAT customs clearance requirements in Australia and New Zealand, which provides anywhere between 400 to 1500 jobs. Vanguard will also handle BAT's exports from both countries.
"We are delighted BAT chose to use our services. Our team has worked to raise the value of our services even further for BAT and so we set up new solutions to optimize BATs operations," said Managing Director South Pacific, Zeljko Blazic.
The exports amount to approximately 500 teu per year
from Australia to Asia and the Pacific Islands, as well as 250 teu per year from New Zealand to the Pacific Islands. There is also significant airfreight and less than containerload (LCL) volume from both origins to worldwide destinations.
Vanguard Australia has completed its first month of service implementation. Michael Rowland Smith, General Manager for Pacific Islands & Agencies, and staff have recently been working in BAT's Sydney offices setting procedures and systems. Vanguard has developed the tools to perform an in-house forwarding and consulting role for BAT. This will also enable Vanguard to get involved in BAT's large import volume of tobacco and paper in the future, all of which is currently bought on CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight) terms.
DCL agent, BCC, to open new logistics center in Beirut
Direct Container Line (DCL) agent will open a logistics center centrally located between Europe and the Middle East.
DCL's agent in Lebanon, Beirut Cargo Center (BCC) will move to a new logistics facility that will become operational by January 2006. BCC has already started the construction of a bonded warehouse of 5,000 square meters inside the free trade zone in the port of Beirut.
"Industrial and commercial enterprises are already operating in the port, and recently freight forwarding and logistics companies received legal permissions that allow them to operate within the free zone area," said Charbel Abou Dib, Commercial Manager for Beirut Cargo Center.
Abou Dib explained the new facility will be equipped with an open storage yard, a temperature controlled area, automated processes and 24-hour surveillance with closed circuit cameras. The office is able to process free zone customs importation and provide
stock control, inventory management services.
The objective behind the Beirut port free zone is to re-launch and consolidate the role of the Lebanese market in the region as the gateway of Europe and the USA to the Middle East, and Levant countries, which encompasses Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Iraq and Cyprus.
"This should further help the economic development of the country on all levels," Abou Dib commented.
The port of Beirut is situated midway between Europe and the Gulf countries. According to Abou Dib, it takes more than 24 days for a container to travel from any major European Port to Dubai and it takes around 10 days for the same container to reach Beirut. As for the US ports, transit time to Beirut is 25 to 30 days while it is 45 to 50 days to Dubai.
"DCL has maintained an excellent partnership with BCC. I was impressed with the plans for the center during my recent visit to Beirut," said Michael Sinclair, CEO of the Americas, Europe and Africa.
|NACA USA appoints manager to head Gulf operations
The regions new manager has set goals to augment the
regions operations
NACA announced the appointment of a new Operations Officer for the Gulf region. Monica Hamilton will step into this position, which is based in the Houston office.
Hamilton started with NACA Logistics (USA) Inc. in 1997 in the export department. She was quickly promoted through both Traffic and Customer Service departments. Hamilton also gained experience as a sales representative where she got a more in-depth sense of the company's customers. Hamilton said she loves interacting with clients.
"I want to get out and see customers and work to gain trust and respect for Houston," said Hamilton, "So many positive things have already taken place this year and we are ready to build on them."
In her new capacity, Hamilton will be responsible for all operational aspects in the Gulf region, including the New Orleans and Dallas receiving terminals said Tim Tudor, Vice President for the southern region. There are a total of 18 staff in Customer Service, Traffic and Documentation in the Houston office.
"I chose Monica because she is well rounded in all areas of our industry and I am confident her complete experience in all areas will make her successful in her new position," said Tudor.
Hamilton already has set goals for building on the office's strong operations. She says her first goal will be to cut costs on some of the stop-offs by routing through rail. Hamilton will also make customer service a priority to ensure customers are fully aware of anything that occurs with their shipments.
"I have worked in every department in the office so I am able to teach others and empathize with the problems they may experience," said Hamilton, "I can sit at anyone's desk and work their desk as if it were my own. There is no better way to earn respect and create a teamwork environment than for my group to see that I care about their workload and their concerns.
|Vanguard Logistics builds domestic network with IPI services
Vanguard Logistics broadens reach with new IPI services. The New York CFS now offers twice-weekly Inland Points Intermodal (IPI) service to Canada plus another IPI service to Atlanta.
Vanguard Logistics New York new twice-weekly IPI services Montreal and Toronto in Canada. The service is the first twice-weekly offering from any neutral CFS (Container Freight Station) warehouse operator making Vanguard New York's domestic Intermodal network one of the most comprehensive available. Vanguard's other services in Canada include: Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Quebec City, Halifax, St. John NB, St. John NF, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg.
Fixed-day pickups for the service are every Tuesday and Friday from the Carteret, N.J. warehouse, and will arrive within 24 hours to the bonded destinations.
"This is a breakthrough in the IPI world as all other competitor's CFS in-bond schedules are once a week, we can offer the most frequent movement of bonded cargo to the eastern Canadian provinces through North Americas busiest Eastern port," said Robert Sutton, Regional Vice President for the eastern region.
"I'm very excited as this is going to be the most frequent service into Canada from New York," said Montreal CFS Manager, Elvio Lancone.
The new service from New York to Atlanta will have dedicated trucks with a one-day transit time.
"Our focus has been on further strengthening our import services. We have worked to build up our IPI network and frequency because they are crucial to augmenting import services by speeding transit time and allowing us to offer more door-to-door options," said Import Manager, Carl Volpe.
"Our customers and agents are quite excited about this as it will mean better visibility and of course the highest priority on releases and result in seamless information transfer," said Regional Vice President for the eastern region, Robert Sutton.
These points kick off what is expected to be five more Vanguard dedicated IPI points as the company plans to continue rapid expansion of its IPI network. Vanguard will target Houston, Kansas City, Mo., Charleston, S.C. and Charlotte, N.C. for direct services in the next six months.
DCL speeds service and avoids delays with all-water Japan services
Direct Container Line (DCL) announced two new weekly all-water services to Tokyo and to Yokohama. The new services are a day faster than the previous mini-land-bridge services with a 24-day transit from New York to Tokyo and a 23-day transit from New York to Yokohama.
DCL decided to load Eastern USA origin cargo direct over New York with Maersk because of the shipping lines reliable schedule. The new all-water
services are particularly beneficial to customers because rail delays and
West Coast port congestion are avoided, according to Vice President for
the Eastern Region, Robert Sutton.
The New York office took the last peak seasons delays into account to judge the severity of the coming season.
"The all-water services are very popular with customers because they compete dead on with the mini-land-bridge and customers don't need to worry about potential delays on the West Coast," said Sutton.
"Historically, all-water services to Japan have been too slow to use for our FAK [Freight All Kinds] but the new string introduction by Maersk allows us new opportunity to offer our customers and local offices have already gotten praise from customers. This seems to be what the market wants and needs," said Export Operations Manager, Karl Laufer.

Researchers are an invaluable resource for helping growers get the most out of their inputs, selecting the right hybrids for the right areas and mapping out a plan for minimizing yield-limiting factors in their fields.
Why is this important? Because spending money on an input that doesn't help protect or boost yield is a wasted investment.
Dr. Kelly Nelson, professor of agronomy at the University of Missouri Greenley Research Center in Novelty, Mo., outlines several key factors to evaluate as you develop a plan for your growers to optimize yield potential with water and temperature being two of the biggest factors – and the hardest to control.
"For the most part, we're at the mercy of Mother Nature when it comes to water and temperature," he says. "Fortunately, there are other yield-limiting factors that we can manage."
Another yield-limiting factor to consider is soil nutrition. "Make sure there is adequate nitrogen in the soil before grain fill, because that can have a significant effect on overall yield," he recommends.
Another key factor is hybrid selection. "One hybrid may have great yield potential but may be more susceptible to key diseases," he explains. "So knowing that you have that risk, you might want to plan a fungicide application."
Knowing the disease history of your growers' fields is another important factor. Nelson recommends scouting fields proactively, before tasseling, so you know what diseases your customers might be facing. This gives you a window to apply a foliar fungicide like Headline AMP® fungicide at tasseling to protect plants from disease and optimize plant photosynthesis.
In-field testing shows that Headline AMP fungicide delivers the most yield when applied at tassel (+12 to +15 bu/A*). In addition to providing best in class preventative and post-infection disease control, Headline AMP fungicide also provides additional BASF Plant Health benefits such as reducing stress during grain fill and allowing corn plants to optimize photosynthesis.
"Disease infections decrease photosynthetic tissue in the plant, and they divert food reserves in the plant to the pathogen for its growth," explains Nelson. "We see a reduction of food reserves transferring from the leaves to the ear, which affects the grain yield directly. That's why we use a foliar fungicide to optimize photosynthesis in all of our high-yielding systems – it protects overall plant efficiency."
In his work, Dr. Nelson has seen the most benefit from a foliar fungicide when applied at the VT stage.
"We're trying to get protection during the grain fill period," he says. "If we have a reduction in the photosynthetic area on the plant, we're going to inhibit the plant's ability to create grain because it will divert energy into combatting that disease stress. When we run into challenges during grain fill, that directly impacts the yield potential of that plant."
Other yield-limiting factors to evaluate when planning for 2019:
- Weed control
- Insect management and history
- Drainage issues
- Soil nutrition
- Planting dates
- Crop rotation
You can find another handy guide for evaluating yield-limiting factors here, courtesy of researchers at the Pennsylvania State University. To learn more about the BASF Plant Health benefits of Headline AMP fungicide, visit GrowSmartCorn.com, or talk to your local BASF representative.

This usually results in the challenge of bringing data from different sources, for example, ERP systems, Excel spreadsheets or CRM systems, into a new target system. This process is called data migration.
Data migrations are one of the most common causes for poor data quality. Poor data quality can delay migration projects as well as exceed your budget.
With DataRocket, data quality can increase even while migrating data from one source system to the next.
1. Source data analysis
To achieve high data quality, we first examine your source data. Based on the target data structure, we define quality criteria that the sets of data should meet. Additionally, duplicates are identified. After this cleanup, you get flawless data quality for the migration into the planned target system.
2. Mapping target data structure
Individual rules are used to adapt the data from the source system to the structure of the target system. This transformation of data is called mapping. After successful implementation of the transformation rules, the source data is sent to the target system.
3. Consistency check
DataRocket takes the consistency check after mapping a step further than similar systems, ensuring a sustainable increase in data quality. DataRocket continuously checks the records of both systems for consistency and cleans up inconsistent data.
This process guarantees high data quality in your target system!

Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
Usain Bolt was honored by the city of Berlin by receiving an original segment of the Berlin Wall—nearly three tons of it.
The Jamaican sprinter, who broke world records in winning gold medals in the 100 and 200 meters, was presented with the piece of wall at a small ceremony Sunday, the final day of the world championships.
The 12-foot high section will be delivered to Bolt's training camp in Jamaica.
The piece of the wall, which divided communist East Berlin from West Berlin between 1961 and 1989, is decorated with a life-size painting of Bolt running on the blue track of the Olympic stadium and the words "NEW WR"—new world record. Bolt set a world record in the 100 at 9.58 seconds and 19.19 in the 200.
"I will never forget Berlin," Bolt said at the ceremony. "Ich bin ein Berlino."
The bear mascot of the championships is called Berlino, while the phrase "ich bin ein Berliner" was used by former President John F. Kennedy during a visit to West Berlin.
Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit said Bolt had shown that "one can tear down walls that had been considered as insurmountable."
The Berlin Wall came down in 1989, as communism was collapsing in Eastern Europe.
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
"When my teacher asks me a question thinking I'm not paying attention, but I get it right."

Dunnes Stores has taken 'no steps' to fit out Point Village store
Anchor unit is important to development of Dublin docklands site, receiver tells court
Point Village Development and businessman Harry Crosbie (above) agreed with Dunnes it would develop a shopping centre.
Dunnes Stores has breached an agreement by taking "no steps whatsoever" to start the fit out of its proposed Point Village store in Dublin, the Commercial Court has heard.
Point Village Development (PVD) is seeking orders requiring Dunnes to specifically perform its obligations under a 2008 development agreement and subsequent settlement agreements over the matter in 2010.
In the original 2008 agreement, PVD and businessman Harry Crosbie agreed with Dunnes that it would develop a shopping centre at the Point, to include 35 retail units together with a substantial anchor unit which Dunnes would fit out and operate.
Receivers Paul McCann and Stephen Tennant were appointed in 2013 over the assets of PVD and certain assets of Mr Crosbie, including their interests in the Point Village.
PVD, acting through the receivers, says that once certain matters, including that binding leases or agreements for leases, had been exchanged in relation to at least seven other ground-floor retail units in the development, Dunnes was required to begin the fit-out.
Dunnes was also required to pay €15 million to PVD, the court heard.
In February 2016, nine such leases were exchanged and Dunnes had until March 30th, 2016, to start work.
However, Mr McCann says in a sworn statement that this did not happen and Dunnes also failed to release the €15 million.
Dunnes has appealed a High Court decision requiring it to pay the money and that is due for hearing next May.
Mr McCann said the opening of the anchor unit is important to the operation and success of the Point Village. The longer the delay, the greater the prospect of further delays in prospective tenants of the smaller units being prepared to open, he says.
A successful shopping centre with an anchor tenant is situ is an important part of the creation of a thriving hub in the area, he said.
On Monday, Mr Justice Robert Haughton admitted the case to the fast-track Commercial Court and adjourned it to October.

You should research on how much accommodation cost in the various Colorado cities. There are good hotels that are very cheap that you could consider; this will depend on how long you will be staying in the US.

These Updates About Jill Stein & Gary Johnson Will Help You Pick If You're Considering A Third-Party Vote
As the United States moves forward in our presidential election this fall, it feels like many voters are more undecided than ever. Last week, the GOP nominated former reality TV star Donald Trump at their Republican National Convention, while this week, the Democratic party nominated Hillary Clinton — though neither won without some disruption. Republican delegates contested Trump's nomination, as did Democratic delegates, and both saw their fair share of protests outside their conventions. So what should you do if you want to vote outside the two major parties? Well, these Jill Stein and Gary Johnson highlights will help you pick between the two non-mainstream candidates if you're considering a third-party vote.
It's no secret that Trump and Clinton both polled at record-breaking lows this year regarding favorability as far as presidential candidates go. Politicians and lawmakers within the GOP tried to stop their own candidate for months, and Sanders delegates and supporters protested Clinton's nomination over the course of the Democratic convention. Perhaps this is the year Americans are starting to look outside of the two-party system for their candidate, and in some ways, that can be attributed to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders' campaign calling for political establishment reform.
Americans are certainly looking to third-party candidates this year, with Johnson polling at 11 percent, and Stein polling at around 3 percent over the latter half of the month of July. The candidates need 15 percent voter support to make it on the debate stage this fall, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to hear what they have to say. So what do these third-party candidates have to offer?
On Education
Stein's platform for 2016 focuses on climate change and accessible, affordable education. Following suit with Sanders' revolutionary policy platforms, Stein wants to eradicate student loan debt and make sure that education is tuition-free from preschool through undergrad.
Johnson's platform on education would include abolishing the Department of Education, suggesting that individual states funding education without federal restrictions and guidelines will have more money to do so.
On Climate Change
Climate change and the threats it poses the planet are central to Stein's platform. Her platform calls for an end to fracking and offshore drilling, and a call to protect our water supplies. Stein has also called for transitioning to renewable energy over the next 14 years and creating jobs in the process.
According to the Seattle Times, Johnson believes that humans have "probably" had an impact on climate change. Johnson also believes in the federal government's push to protect the environment but has also pushed for punitive actions against polluters, rather than within the market.
On Military Assistance For Israel
Stein's stance on foreign policy includes opposing U.S. military aid to Israel. She told PBS that this monetary assistance is used to "fund a government which is basically committing war crimes against the Palestinian people, violating human rights, violating international law with the occupations." According to her presidential platform, Stein believes in a foreign policy "based on diplomacy, international law, and human rights," not on war.
When it comes down to U.S. support in Israel, Johnson reportedly believes in cutting all U.S. assistance to Israel. In 2011, he called the state an ally to the U.S. and suggested that "it's a mistake for us to think that we're going to dictate to them actions when it comes to Palestinian statehood."
When it comes time this fall, whether you vote Democratic, Republican, or third-party, whether you vote your conscience, or simply to stop Trump, it's OK to learn about the third-party candidates who are campaigning through the next few months.

EMDR originated with a chance observation. One day in 1987 psychologist Francine Shapiro was walking through a park, preoccupied with some painful memories when she noticed that rapid eye movements produced a dramatic relief from her distress. EMDR loosens up something in the brain that gives people rapid access to loosely associated memories and images from their past. This seems to help them put the traumatic experience into a larger context or perspective. EMDR enables them to observe their experiences in a new way, without the need to describe or explain it to another person. EMDR can help even if the client and therapist do not have a trusting relationship which can be particularly helpful because trauma can leave people struggling to trust others. Because EMDR doesn't require clients to explain to a therapist why they feel so upset, it allows them to stay fully focused on their internal experience with the feeling that they are in control. Rather than feeling each individual step of their traumatic memory it becomes more like a whole, instead of fragments, and feels more manageable, a story about something that happened a long time ago.
EMDR activates a series of unsought and seemingly unrelated sensations, emotions, images, and thoughts in conjunction with the original memory. This way of reassembling old information into new packages may be just the way we integrate ordinary, nontraumatic experiences. EMDR spends very little time revisiting the original trauma: the trauma is the starting point, but the focus is on stimulating and opening up the associative process.
