Articles of Incorporation are documents which outline the structure of a new corporation.
- Forming a new corporation in the State of California.
- Recording basic information about a new corporation, including its name, legal structure, registered agents, and incorporators.
Before allowing a new corporation to do business within its borders, states require the disclosure of certain information pertaining to the structure, purpose, and contact information for the new company. Articles of Incorporation are a set of documents filed with the government that provide this basic information required by law. Filing Articles of Incorporation is typically the first step in the legal process of creating a new corporation.
Sometimes referred to as a "corporate charter," Articles of Incorporation can include any of several terms describing how and why the company functions. Incorporators can provide additional details about the purpose of the business, for example, or how the board of directors should function. However, all Articles of Incorporation must include specific information in order to be legally binding. This information varies by jurisdiction, and the Secretary of State will not approve the formation of a new corporation unless they are accurate and complete according to state law. While Articles of Incorporation may be customized to provide additional detail about business purpose and organization of a new corporation, they are very difficult to amend. As a result, Articles of Incorporation typically only include the basic information necessary to legally create a new corporation. Incorporators who wish to provide additional guidance regarding the form and function of a new corporation may choose to do so with corporate by-laws or similar documents.
This contract has been drafted to comply with the laws of the State of California. Most states require similar information, but incorporators should be aware of the rules that apply within their jurisdiction.

SPIKE TV's annual half-celebration half-"see I told you this is what them video games is like" Video Game Awards show airs tomorrow and in-between all of the trailers for upcoming games there's a chance for developers and individual games to walk away with trophies.
2011 has been an exceptional year for games and the VGAs are chock full of titles that I'd be hard pressed to choose over one another. Some are obvious winners for me (like picking Battlefield 3 as the best multiplayer game over Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3), but a few I had a hard time deciding on. Do I really like Skyrim better than Batman? That may seem like an obvious choice at first, but then I start thinking about it and maybe I break out into sweat. Who's to say?
I'm also a little disappointed by the lack of a GotY nomination for Deus Ex: Human Revolution but I'm just one man. Take a look at the nominees for the various categories of the 2011 Video Game Awards and tell us what you think. What's your pick for Game of the Year? Any write-in votes?

You take a pot, add all the above ingredients, plus 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, pinch of salt, and pepper. Stir it all together, cook until starts to bubble, and then turn to low and simmer so the flavors blend, for 15 to 20 minutes. Now it is ready to serve. The V-8 juice and brown sugar are two of the ingredients she uses for her soup.
Recipe is from the "Fast Fixes With Mixes, Taste of Home Cookbook." The recipe was shared by Chris Rentmeister.
2 cups of biscuit/baking mix
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup shredded parmesean(I add this)
2 cloves of minced garlic(I use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder)
2/3 cup of milk
2 Tablespoons melted butter
In a bowl, combine biscuit mix, cheese and garlic. With a fork, stir in milk just until moistened. Use a sprayed ice cream scoop to put in muffin tin. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Enjoy!!!
Using this recipe will give you some extra time to spend outdoors in this beautiful time of the year.

My Journey to Ordination
Recently in worship we celebrated the Holy Trinity, that divine relationship that is unity in di- versity. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three distinct persons, only together revealing the fullness of who God is. This is our model for living. Each of us is uniquely created in the image of God, and yet it is only when all of our individual images are joined together as one Body in Christ that we reveal the full Image of God. We, too, are a sacred relationship. We are unity in diversity.
I've been thinking about that a lot recently, as I have prepared for my ordination. Much of my work has revolved around telling stories from my time in ministry. For instance, how my experience of ministry has shaped my understanding of the Trinity. Where and how I have seen the Holy Spirit at work. What grace looks like. And repentance. And sanctification.
So I wrote about you. I wrote about us, about our lives together in this congregation and in this community. I told stories of casual conversations and experiences in worship, of Great Days of Service and quiet days in hospitals. I wrote about how all those doctrines I read about in seminary actually live and breathe in Christ's holy church.
And I was (and am) awed. Make no mistake, brothers and sisters—together, we really do reveal God in the world. As one body full of diverse gifts and passions, we are the very Image of God, living and loving and serving right here in Western North Carolina.
This month, my ordination journey will reach its completion. And I am humbled and overjoyed by how many of us will be together to celebrate. But promise me, when we all stand together, that you'll take a moment to look around and let yourself be awed. See what I have been privileged to see—that through this family of faith, through this united group of diverse and gifted disciples, God shines through.
It is an honor to serve among you. May we always be united in diversity, showing God in the world.
Yours in Christ,

"The town was paper, but the memories were not."
Some time ago we had a subject - Literature 2 at University and my teacher gave me some good thoughts for the post.Ha, it happened from to time that I gained some new "quotes" from him and I was able to make it a post for blog. Weird? What do you think?
It was kinda ordinary long lasting day and I was sitting in a full and overheated classroom, thinking about the way how to exit that warm room full of people who kinda hates me, my sarcastic talking and commenting all the things I want, with no shame. Sometimes I was thinking it's too much, that I am arrogant for no particular reason, but on the other side I have one reason- I wanted. As I am saying from time to time - you can't always be nice to people.
But back to the whole point. I was sitting there all tired and stuff and suddenly he started to talk about Fragments in literary works, and to be honest that caught my attention. I have this weird ability to transform his words about theory of literature into something very similar related to life happenings, but on the other side very different, in the same way.
Our whole life is just a circle of series of fragments, if you think about it from the beginning. The whole day can be divided into fragments. You wake up, have breakfast, exercise or go for a walk, go to you school (job) which you hate and spend a day in this institution full of stress and negative energy till it comes to the end and you are leaving home completely exhausted, thinking about the purpose of this with a simple question in your mind: ,,Why?" Kinda rethorical question but- you know why? Because that's life. And there are also bad things but we have the ability to make them good- that's the whole secret. I have always been seeing those activities like a series of photos- *click* breakfast, *click* on my way to somewhere...etc.
Well, I am not saying it is bad every time- there are also a good fragments in those shitty days. Having coffee with friends, chatting w/ that person via phone because he is too far away to meet up with him, listen to good music, walk through the full town with headphones in your ears, suddenly not feeling that small as you usually do, taking pictures of people who don't even know I am doing it. So I decided to make a little series of photos ("fragments") of this particular occasion- there are mostly a smear motion because I took them while walking- it would be weird if somebody stands in front of you and made picture just like that -_-" don't you think?
So here it is, some of my friends, and also people I have never seen before, I'd like to call it WHEN NO ONE'S WATCHING
Life is just full of fragments, full of memories, full of the particular moments which we will remember till the end of our life or forget them in the very minute it happened.
My teacher once said one interesting thing about the fragments which we can also apply in the real life, this is kinda what he said:
,,Sometimes, when you have only a fragment, it's not necessary to have the "whole unit". There are times when only the piece of the whole thing is enough, because in conclusion you don't really need the wholeness when you have the one piece that matters."
It's good how it is. Because sometimes life ends in the middle of sentence; you can't even end the sentence and it's over.
That's why live with the fragments, enjoy them whether they are bad or good- but at least they are happening and that's also some kind of progress in life.

Criminal Lawyer Career
The principle of freedom which Americans highly prize is demonstrated in this nation s commitment to the presumption of innocence in a criminal trial. In many other nations, the accused is presumed guilty until he proves his innocence or the government inadequately proves its case. Yet in the United States of America, the presumption of innocence requires the prosecution to prove its case against the defendant beyond a reasonable doubt before he would be pronounced guilty.
Under the U.S. Constitution, everyone accused of a crime has the right to a lawyer s defense. В It is criminal lawyers who represent defendants in and out of court. They make several attempts to settle the case outside of court but occasionally, they must go to trial.
Educational Requirements
A criminal lawyer must hold a juris doctorate and an attorney s license in order to practice criminal law. Experience in criminal law is advisable before obtaining a position as a criminal lawyer. However, significant clinical experience may be equated with some criminal law experience for a recent graduate. Or, participation in internships, volunteer positions or part-time jobs with public defenders and prosecutor offices can be the necessary work experience required.
Pick from the links below, depending on your education level that best describes your situation
Throughout their careers, criminal lawyers often seek out additional training and continuing education programs to sharpen and expand their legal skills.
Job Description
The primary role of a criminal lawyer is to represent their defendant in the criminal court system. This encompasses arraignments, pretrial hearings, settlement conferences, trials and sentence hearings. They defend adults and juveniles at the federal, state and local level. In order to represent clients in federal courts, a criminal lawyer must first apply for admission to practice in that court.
Typically, criminal lawyers are working on several cases at one time, each at different stages in the criminal process. Throughout the criminal process, criminal lawyers offer legal counsel to their clients that would be in their best interests. Criminal lawyers extensive knowledge of the law helps them safeguard their client s constitutional rights.
There is a vast amount of time spent gathering evidence like police reports, eyewitness testimonies and any other information pertinent to the case. As a result, criminal lawyers utilize the expertise of paralegals, private investigators, litigation consultants and others to assist them.
The following tasks are characteristic of a criminal lawyer s occupation:
- Interviewing witnesses
- Performing legal research
- Creating exhibits for demonstrations in court
- Accruing additional evidence in support of their case or for arguments against the prosecution s charges
- Examining the crime scene
- Gathering expert witnesses to testify in court
Salary Job Outlook
The average salary of a criminal lawyer is $78,500. However, the salary can range from $45,000 to $130,000. В Interestingly, private criminal lawyers make the lowest earnings among lawyers. Experience and rising to the top of the career ladder however increases a criminal lawyer s pay scale. В
Traditionally, a criminal lawyer begins as a junior associate at a law firm, a prosecutor, or a public defender. В Next, a criminal lawyer can advance to senior associate at a law firm or as a solo practitioner who is essentially self-employed. В The ultimate aspiration for a criminal lawyer may be as a partner in a law firm.
These aren t the only career paths available to a criminal lawyer. Alternatively, a criminal lawyer can work as a district attorney. District attorneys are employed by the government and prosecute cases on behalf of the state. Another option would be as a non-profit lawyer. Non-profit organizations will hire criminal defense attorneys to represent persons who cannot afford private counsel themselves. В
Competition is high for criminal lawyer positions in law firms.

Design your own sofa
A sofa is much more than just a seat. It's where you unwind, catch up on your favourite book and spend nights in with the family. And with our sofa planners, you can create your own sofa, one that fits not only your room but also your needs. Choose from different sizes, layouts and colours to make it perfect for you.
Introducing the world's comfiest font.
Download SOFFA Sans
VIMLE is a sectional sofa that allows you to create just the right sofa you need for your home. Our range is made of soft cotton, which is sourced more sustainably and adds extra comfort. Available in a variety of colours, they are designed to last for years and are affordable, too.
A good cushion is the very essence of comfort. That notion guided us when we created the GRÖNLID multi-cushion design. Arrange them into a soft, snug embrace, find the right back support, or why not build a fortress? The sofa itself is just as flexible, thanks to its sectional design. Either way you go, you'll be surrounded by cosy covers where the cotton used comes from more sustainable sources – and they're washable, too.
VALLENTUNA is a modular sofa series that allows you to create a personalised seating solution. Extra sleeping guests or just want to keep the mess out of sight? Choose the sofa bed or the storage sofa module. How about having some personal space, without having to go to a different room in the house? Just rearrange the modules and have your own sofa for one. No matter the size of your room or family, the possibilities are endless.
With a SÖDERHAMN modular sofa, you can make your sofa as comfy as it can be. Creating a comfortable combination is easy with deep seats and moveable back cushions. So you can sit back and relax, whilst also knowing that all of the materials from the sofa can be recycled - even though you won't have to worry about that for years.
What does sofa comfort mean to you? Soft cushions? Deep seats? An ergonomic backrest, both relaxing and with posture support? Or just a general feeling of not wanting to get up, ever? Then LIDHULT is for you. A sofa collection to make binge-watching, family gatherings, TV dinners, and lazy days equally enjoyable. From the bottom of the pocket springs to the top of the headrest – LIDHULT is here to sweep you off your feet.

There are a number of factors that may result in seeking medical advice. The first step is to obtain a referral from your GP in order to see a gastroenterologist for whatever the related issue is.
The Australian government supports bowel cancer screening. A bowel preparation kit is sent to every person once they reach the age of 50. Dr. Yoganthan believes this is a valuable tool in order to prevent the risk of bowel cancer, one of the biggest killers in Australia. If you have not yet received a kit, you can find them at your nearest pharmacy.
If you have a family history of bowel cancer, are over the age of 50, or have any symptoms you are concerned about then a consultation visit may be in your best interest. Please consult your GP for a referral first.

M Kabeer, President and A Rodrigues Secretary of DK PUCL, were present.
PUCL: Veteren leader Jaya Prakash Narayan (JP) founded the People's Union for Civil Liberties and Democratic Rights (PUCLDR), in 1976. The idea was to make the PUCLDR. An organisation free from political ideologies, so that people belonging to various political parties may come together on one platform for the defence of Civil Liberties and Human Rights. A national seminar was held on October 17, 1976. It was inaugurated by Acharya JB Kripalani. The PUCLDR was a loosely organised group of people who were working with JP. V M Tarkunde was elected President and Krishna Kant General Secretary. The Emergency was lifted in 1977.
Sedition law Sec. 124A IPC: Routinely abused to silence ordinary citizens, muzzle free speech, intimidate anyone even remotely questioning government and state policy and brutally ensure that citizens conform to what is considered politically right by the ruling political elite and establishment. Sec. 124A IPCwas made by the British government to crush and silence freedom fighters during the independence struggle and had been famously used against Mahatma Gandhi and Balgangadhar Tilak, both of who were convicted for 6 years under this law.
For the last 100 years, both the colonial British state and indep endent Indian governments have used anti-sedition laws as a tool of repression to silence anyone from questioning their actions. This draconian law has been invoked
earlier against author and activist Arundhati Roy, well known doctor and PUCL National Vicee President Dr. Binayak Sen, journalist Seema Azad and cartoonist Aseem Trivedi. PUCL strongly believes that Section 124A is an archaic and repressive law which has a chilling effect' on freedom of speech and expression of Indian citizens as enshrined in Article 19 (1)(a) of the Indian Constitution. As long as it is in the law books it will continue to be abused to silence dissent and prevent challenges to ruling interests. Jawaharlal Nehru made a promise to the nation in India's First parliament that sec. 124A IPC is unacceptable and that the law will be repealed. PUCL has been demanding not just the repeal of sec.
124A IPC but also clones of the law in other statutes like the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act.The three erudite guest speakers of the evening gave a very good insight into the effect and reason for declaring as 'Ultra Vires' and scrapping this draconian law now even more misused in recent cases.
Late David D'Souza, past President of DK PUCL, photo unvield:
The Karnataka PUCL Vice President P B D'Sa, a veteran PUCL and human rights activist in the region recalled then case of David D'Souza, the Dakshina Kannada district president f People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) last year. David was on a visit to the rural police station when he collapsed inside the station on Thursday July 2, 2015 and died later in a private hospital in the city.
One Stanley requested David to accompany him to the police station. Cynthia, who was present at the police station, accused David of misleading her husband. Reacting to this David turned angry. The police claimed that police inspector, Pramod, tried to calm down David by advising him not to interfere in the family matter. The police said they asked David to go out of the station. David, who was a heart patient, collapsed after shouting at the police and others. The family of the deceased thereafter approached Kadri police station, saying that they had suspicion about the cause of David's death. PUCL leaders submitted a memorandum to then city police commissioner S Murugan alleging that their district president met custodial death. In view of the complaint, post mortem was done and video recorded in the presence of the tahasildar. However, the investigations have not yet reached anywhere and matters are dragged from pillar to post even without a copy of the postmortem reports being made available. PUCL regrets the state of this investigation where it is a grave miscarriage of justice.

Aries - Pure Potential
The fresh seed flowering in June,
The very beginning spark of the match,
The skeleton key that unlocks every latch.
The fertilized egg, waiting to be born,
Pure potential, calm before the storm,
The killer whale diving deep in the sea,
The infinite cosmos, the divine mystery.
The midnight cat who runs feral and wild,
The softest bunny held by the child,
The initial thought that becomes an idea,
The manifestor who makes things real.
Unrealized energy waiting to be free,
The pure potential to grow into me,
The opportunity, the workings of chance,
I am the choreographer of my own dance.

August 29, 2009
Even in a good year, couloir climbing season is done by mid-July and the ice climbing season doesn't get started until November at the earliest… or so I thought! Perusing Dave Cooper's excellent Colorado Snow Climbs showed me the light; there is a whole class of permanent snowfields which morph from soft snow routes in the spring toalpine ice routes in the late summer. Avalanche danger is replaced by lightning and step-kicking is replaced by front-pointing. Ice climbing in August? The idea was just too tempting to ignore.
This would be a trip of firsts. I've been trying to interest Eric in some sort of alpine route for quite a while now. He's been earning his mountain stripes on longer and more ambitious hikes, and knows the ropes of multipitch rock climbing as well as me. Tyndall Glacier in RMNP looked like a good, mellow introduction to the world of axe-and-crampon work and would be new terrain for both of us. Little did we realize at the outset just how interesting it would become…
The Bear Lake trailhead is probably the most popular in the entire state (and rightly so!) and even at 6am there was a good crowd gathered. We felt right at home donning heavy packs full of ropes and helmets and humping up the trail. We got to Nymph Lake at sunrise and to Dream Lake just as the ephemeral best lighting of the day struck the picturesque buttresses of Hallett and Flattop across a mirror-smooth lake. While getting up at 4am is never fun, it's views like this that make it palatable. Nor were we alone; at least a score of photographers lined the shores of the lake snapping away before the spectacular morning light faded. Another half mile of hiking brought us to Emerald Lake and the end of the easy trail.
From here, it was a climb of 1800′ in a straight-line mile to the base of the Glacier; new territory for both of us. Fortunately, the impressive buttresses on the north face of Hallett Peak contain some of the most popular alpine rock routes in the world and there is a rugged and indistinct trail up above the lake. We tackled the tallus, falling in with a couple groups of rock rats, gaining altitude quickly.
An hour after leaving the lake (after covering half a mile), we gained the top of the major cliff band. The climbers' trail ended and we picked our way into the over and around house-sized blocks of stone (some quite freshly fallen) to gain the relatively easy grassy ramps and smooth slabs on the north side of the creek. The day was beautiful and we took our time. The top of the glacier hove into view. Nearly there! We surmounted a rocky ridge and fought our way through some tallus to the miniscule Pool of Jade just below the glacier. Nearly there! Then we tackled the terminal moraine which proved to be extremely arduous. Tottering and balancing over a few hundred yards of loose blocks took entirely more time and mental and physical effort than it should have.
After nearly four hours of approach, we could finally get on the ice! The glacier is arranged such that the left (south) side offers the longest, steepest slopes (about 500′ of snow topping out at 45 degrees) while the right side offers a much more gentle, shorter climb (perhaps 300′ and 35o). As this was Eric's first time on snow or ice, we'd planned to tackle the gentle terrain, but we were eager to get off the rocks and on the ice, so we started an ascending traverse over to the gentle, right-hand exit.
Too tell the truth, I wasn't quite sure what to expect either. I've done a fair number of spring snow climbs and a handful of technical water ice pitches as well. Accordingly, I'd come armed for both extremes; ice screws, pickets, and a pair of ice axes for both of us. I ran out the length of our 30 meter rope finding that the glacier was a lot firmer than expected. Axe plunging and step kicking didn't work, so I was front pointing and daggering the whole way. Pickets went in with a good deal of hammering but at least they gave me some confidence. Eric started up behind me simul-climbing the lower angled terrain but keeping at least one peice of protection between us at all times. His initial misgivings had been about feeling unsecure above a long snow slope, but he found the axes to be quite secure and quickly got the hang of moving on snow. We regrouped at a small bergshrund below a rock rib, compared notes, and stowed the pickets for the second pitch.
Eric didn't seem to be having any trouble with the exposure or the technique, so we scrapped the ascending traverse plan (the traversing was getting old anyway) opting for speed on the direct route. I headed straight up toward easily visible top. The slope opened up to a nice 45-degree sheet of ice and I was really starting to have fun… except for the pesky fact that sky was quite ominously dark and we could distinctly hear thunder from the northwest. Eric started up once I'd moved out onto the face and followed very quickly as I made for another rock rib just below the exit. Distances are very hard to judge on featureless snow and the rock rib and it's sheltering bergshrund turned out to be a lot farther away than it appeared. I rationed my four pickets suplementing them with my longest ice screws in the occasional patches of snow-ice that looked like they might hold. The slope was pretty steep here and a fall would be hard to arrest. The pickets were pretty secure but the screws were probably more psychological than anything else.
At long last, I pulled up to the second 'shrund, and fashioned a quick anchor. Eric had perfected the picket-cleaning routine by this point and was climbing harder than I've ever seen him climb. I was pulling in rope pretty quickly as he raced the thunder up the slope. Thunder boomed all around as he arrived and jumped into our nook, a bit shaken and out of breath. We stood side-by-side in the waist-deep moat with rock at our backs and a ring-side view of the meteorological action on the other three-sides. "At least we'll die together," he quipped. This was certainly not the ideal place to sit out a storm, but we didn't have many options. Better to be half-way up the mountain during a storm than sitting on the exposed tundra of the Divide! A brief snowstorm had us diving into our packs for jackets and warmer layers. If nothing else, it was a great spot to contemplate our places in the larger universe.
Before long, the lightning had moved out to the east and the sky looked distinctly brighter in the west (though it was still snowing lightly). I moved out for the third pitch. The hard alpine snow made it feel a lot steeper than 50 degrees, that's for sure! Again, it looked like the top was no more than a rope length above but it turned out to be probably another 200′. However, the sun was out, the lightning was gone, the ice was great, hikers watched us from the summit of Flattop (we reportedly put on quite a show), and there was no place I'd rather be. Life was good! The top came suddenly and I set up a quick anchor (two tools and my last picket), clipped in a directional, and belayed Eric up the final hundred feet. Considering this was the first time he'd ever swung an axe (never mind two axes) and he was climbing in soft leather boots with old, dull, Scottish-style crampons with a quiver of pickets banging around his ankles, he was doing remarkably well!
The best part of alpine climbing is the incredibly smug feeling you get when you're back on easy, safe terrain. Wet gear came off and was laid in the sun to dry while we enjoyed a late lunch. With minimal gear (cameras and food bags), we trotted up the last quarter mile to the summit of Hallett Peak. The views from the top were stunning and conditions were great. I've been on the high peaks many times, but only on a handful of occasions was the sky clear and the wind completely calm. It was actually kind of eerie! Certainly it was a far cry from the last time I stood on the top of Hallett Peak!
Unfortunately, we still had a five mile hike to get back out and it looked like the clement weather might not last much longer. We trudged over to the "summit" of Flattop admiring views of "our" glacier on the way from several nice overlooks, then started the descent. Climbing and even talus-hopping in heavy leather boots is one thing, but hiking along smooth, gradual trail is quite another, especially with a 40 pound pack on your back. The descent was definitely no fun but we finally arrived back at the crowded trailhead at 4pm, just as the second, larger rainstorm of the day started. Total distance 9.5 miles in 9.5 hours and about 3300′ of gain.
Ice climbing in August… Sweet!

Rainbow Investigations
(403) 651-9049 / (403) 245-0533
Rainbow Investigations is a Calgary based investigative service that has investigated blatant mortgage fraud on behalf of victim buyers.
So what does Rainbow Investigations actually do?
A complete and solid chronology of the events of the property transfer is huge ammunition to fight mortgage fraud!
By getting control of their own property, the victim buyer now has options as to how to deal with the situation!
Rainbow Investigations knows what lawyers are looking for in this situation!
More than a few victim buyers have complimented Rainbow Investigations as the way to work out of blatant mortgage fraud!
By having had now ninety (90) retained clients in blatant mortgage fraud, Rainbow Investigations knows the whole foreclosure process in mortgage fraud.
To this date, the vast majority of clients retained by Rainbow Investigations in mortgage fraud has had a benefit to their situation that they would not have had, had the foreclosure gone undefended and not been investigated. Many of our clients have had, or are in the process of, directing deficiency judgments from themselves to the perpetrators of the fraud. As of this date, we have ten judgments confirmed against fraudsters, (including one fraudster 3 times), and have many more coming down the pipe!
Since 2011, Rainbow Investigations has been helping victim buyers settle claims with CMHC, Genworth, and even with banks in certain situations. We have successfully aided in settling aproximately 40 files as of 2014.
Many of Calgary real estate litigators (lawyers) have a ton of respect for the work Rainbow Investigations is currently doing in these matters. Even the lawyers for the banks in these foreclosure matters have said they have "a good working relationship with Rainbow Investigations".
However, there are some law offices, and some people in the financial services industry, who believe that once you are identified as a "strawbuyer victim" of mortgage fraud, and the property is going into foreclosure, there is nothing you can do, and all you should do is declare bankruptcy. Really?
Most clients of Rainbow Investigations seem to have a very different experience! Out of our 45 current clients, and 90 clients that have used us in mortgage fraud since May 2008, we have approximately a dozen people who have chosen to go on bankruptcy by their choice. And most of our clients that we are aware of that have been asked to pay a deficiency judgment to an insurance company get a much more favourable settlment after letting us do the talking. Furthermore, we have at least 10 situations now where we have successfully gotten the straw buyer 100% out of the completed foreclosure with NO deficiency judgment.
Recently, banks and insurance companies have been issuing Statements of Claim on people who declared bankruptcy in this matter, saying that the deficiency cannot be wiped out by bankruptcy. This further tells us that avoiding the issue does not work.
But don't let us do the talking, instead why don't you hear from our clients:
Client A - this client was a straw buyer in a mortgage fraud situation, and over the coarse of a year, we managed to have the bank discontinue their first Statement of Claim, and then issue a second Statement of Claim, only on the fraudsters. This effectively ended the matter for our clients. Here is what "JJ and KJ" (not their real initials) have said:
"When we were confronted with a situation of mortgage fraud we consulted several lawyers, trying to learn what we could do, and what our options were. Each one treated us as if we were the guilty party, only adding to a very confusing and stressful time. We ended up with conflicting views and we were no further ahead.
In a short time after meeting Ron Reinhold, we realized that he fully understood the situation we were in, and was very experienced in these matters. He empathized with us, and quickly put us on a course of action. Because of our decision to use Ron's specialization and expert knowledge with mortgage fraud, we got the outcome we were looking for.
We have no hesitation in recommending Ron Reinhold and his services".
Client B
If you are a straw buyer, and the foreclosure is not completed, and you have not been noted in default, we may be able to help you, despite what you may hear elsewhere! Call us (403) (245-0533).
Once you have responded with the true facts of the circumstances, the situation allows you many more options to deal with the matter appropriately!
(403) 245-0533 / (403) 651-9049

Will this drink turn you into a Wallbanger? Let's make it and you can give it a try. I'm not responsible for damaged walls though.
Welcome to another An Idiots Liquor and this drink is the Harvey Wallbanger. While we think it was named after a surfer who drank too many of these and ran into walls, we know that it is basically a Screwdriver with a little extra flair.
So here's what you'll need. A decent bottle of Vodka, some Galliano, oranges for juicing (if ya use bottled Orange Juice I won't judge you.) It is worth noting that Fresh OJ will give you an entirely better flavor for sure.
So this one is really easy. We are going to fill the glass with ice, add in 1 ½ oz vodka, fill up with orange juice leaving a little room at the top. I like to stir it at this point. After this we'll use a spoon to float the Galliano on top. Orange wheel garnish will complete it for you and you're ready to start banging off of walls.
Harvey Wallbanger
- 1 1/2 oz Vodka Decent quality, but doesn't have to cost a fortune.
- 4 oz Fresh Orange Juice I won't judge if you use bottled OJ.
- 1/2 oz Galliano
- Add ice into a highball glass.
- Add Vodka and Orange Juice to the glass. Leave room at the top.
- Use a spoon to float the Galliano on the top of the drink.
- Garnish with an Orange slice or Maraschino Cherry. (Or both if you are inclined to do so.)

text: Telstra Corporation – Tough luck if you want to phone a friend About the author: Author name: By Nick Harris Job title: Senior Analyst Date posted: 28 May 2018, 8:19 AM Sectors Covered: Telecommunications, Technology and Financial Services What happened This week TPG released details of their planned mobile network and Telstra (TLS) investors should be pleased to discover that TPG's mobile nework will begin life as a data only network (no voice calls allowed initially). We've consistently argued that TPG's mobile offering is not primarily directed at hurting Telstra's mobile network, rather it is directed at: bypassing the NBN's last mile (FTTB with microcells) where economically feasible (as the NBN seriously damages TPG's returns); and attracting the cost conscious consumer (which will hurt Vodaphone the most). There will be a knock-on effect for Telstra but we don't think it's as drastic as feared. In fact, if TPG's mobile network is able to damage the NBN's economics, this could be good for Telstra. What TPG Telecom said TPG are notoriously secretive and this is the first time meaningful details on their mobile plans have been released. In the Australian Financial Review (25th May 2018), TPG's Chief Operating Officer Craig Levy said TPG has "decided to go to data only in the beginning" and that TPG will later this year launch a $0 unlimited data plan which after 6 months becomes $9.99 per month. TPG will target tablet owners and younger generations who are data hungry and prefer social media applications rather than actually talking. This part of the market is serviced mostly by Vodaphone, Kogan and Amaysim (not Telstra). What this means In our view the fact that TPG's mobile network commences life as data only (no voice calls allowed) is an indication that the quality of the network (at least initially) will not be high. This is fine for some consumers and TPG has always targeted the cost conscious consumer. Roughly speaking one in four consumers care more about a cheap price than quality of service. Importantly, by definition, this means that the primary target market of TPG mobile is not Telstra. Telstra, by contrast, targets the consumer that cares more about quality of service over price. Investment view Our positive investment thesis is based on a pessimistic valuation, attractive fundamentals, the probability that (in our view) the NBN is forced to lower prices, and our assertion that TPG's mobile network isn't as negative for Telstra as feared. A potential catalyst is the Telstra investor briefing on 20 June 2018, where they will talk about strategies they are implementing to address market pressures. Our valuation and share price target remain unchanged. We retain our Add recommendation.

One of the optional activities during our San Clemente home-stay was a hike in the surrounding hills. We decided to give it a go and were glad we did as the scenery was amazing. The hike its self was fairly tough going up hill, mainly due to the altitude rather than the trail. Once re reached the top the rest of the trail was much easier and a lot more enjoyable.

Photonics is the key enabling technology for all wireless and wired broadband technologies. Already, over 90 percent of all the data transferred for telecommunications is transmitted by optical fibre, while in the microelectronics sector, storage media and microprocessors are produced using optical techniques. More information, intelligence, and data are transferred from one point to another, more quickly and precisely than ever thought possible, thanks to the miracle of optical fibers.
The photonics industry provides new added value to the established telecommunications industry, but also others like chemicals and automotive, through the development of advanced networking technologies, thereby helping to strengthen and anchor these traditional businesses and jobs in Europe. Photonics technology is also essential to the development of more energy efficient ICT solutions.
Optical networking is expected to play a major role in facilitating the demand for increased ICT capacity with reduced energy requirements, paving the way for the sustainable "green knowledge-based society" of the future.
Examples of where photonics is applied in Information & Communication include:
- FTTH connectivity & components
- R2R, B2B,... interconnects
- Optical interconnect systems
- DC fibres
- Amplifying fibres
- λ-stabilizers
Information Technology
- Optical computing
- Micro displays
- Cameras
- Scanners
- Projectoras
- Printers
Home Automation
- IR remote control
- Fingerprint sensors
- Retinal scanners

Money is a really broad topic. There are a massive choice of jobs and job settings available in the Financing field. Education and learning requirements and income expectations are identified by the area of passion, in addition to the geographical setting. A number of jobs Opportunities can be discovered in Finance. Financial is most likely the common position that springs to mind. Business Financial, Corporate Finance, Financial Preparation, Insurance Coverage, Investment Financial, Money Management, and Careers in Realty are related to the area of Money. Researches done recently have actually demonstrated that the demand for individuals in the Money area is growing. Incidentally, offered that there is loan involved, there is a demand for finance. Some attributes of Money experts consist of; Strategic reasoning, and the capacity to comprehend complicated issues fairly quickly, a brand-new, fresh perspective, and sincerity. If you want an occupation in financing, you likewise require having some leadership qualities, having a company understanding of risk administration, and possessing solid analytical and problem fixing capabilities.
Remembering that Money is a global service, a 2nd and even third language could be an extremely important skill in this field. Education demands differ, relying on the job course you have actually picked. An Associates Level would certainly be handy for a number of minor job options, yet many companies call for at least a Bachelor's Level for tasks like accounting, investment financial, commercial financial, and so on. You can choose to seek your Master's Degree, and also expect to make a much higher annual revenues. Earnings ranges with a Bachelor's Degree begin around 25,000 annually and peak at over 40,000. Incidentally, if you pick a Bachelor's degree, your beginning name would likely be Junior Financial Analyst, like a Master's it would certainly be Financial Analyst.

From Our President: April Brings Vaux's Swifts Back to Agate HallPosted on Tuesday, April 1st, 2014
As most of you know, the chimney of Agate Hall on the University of Oregon campus is an ecologically significant migratory stopover for tens of thousands of Vaux's Swifts during the spring and fall months. During last year's fall migration, over 45,000 birds were counted entering the chimney. The number is not a total of the birds that might have used it, because counts were done only weekly and sporadically. (If we had volunteers to do daily counts, the numbers would be far higher.) Agate Hall is included on the Vaux's Happening website as one of the most active Vaux's Swift roost sites. (See www.vauxhappening.org/Vauxs_Happening_Home.html for more information.)

The stock exchange is the most crucial part of the share market. Indian stock market is one of the oldest and the robust market in Asia. It houses Asia's first stock exchange – Bombay Stock Exchange, popularly known as BSE. Most of us know about only these two stock exchanges in India- Bombay stock exchange (BSE) and National stock exchange (NSE). But, the list of stock exchanges in India is more than that.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is the regulatory authority for Stock Exchanges in India. SEBI's primary functions are to protect investor interests, promote and regulate the Indian securities markets. To conduct, any type of transaction every stockbroking firm must be registered under SEBI. Foreign Portfolio Investors are also required to register to participate in the Indian securities markets.
In this post, we are going through these following topics.
What are the Stock market and the Stock Exchange?
However, it is necessary to understand the difference between a stock market and a stock exchange.
Stock market
A stock market or share market is a place where shares of publicly listed companies are traded. So, the Indian stock market includes all the stock exchanges across the nation. All kind of transactions takes place through these stock exchanges.
Stock Exchange
So, the stock exchange is a facility or an association where the stockbrokers and traders can buy and sell shares, stock, bonds, option, trading, commodities, and other financial instruments during the specific hours of business days.
This is exactly similar to the vegetable market. Now, the market doesn't own the vegetables but connects the buyers and sellers of vegetables at a particular location.
So, the stock exchanges do not own the stocks. Companies listed their stocks in the exchanges. This is an organized marketplace where the members' trade company stock or other listed securities.
However, the members could be agents of different broking houses acting on behalf of their clients, or they could be principals representing their own accounts. So, the exchange imposes rules and regulations on the firms and brokers. That helps for efficient trading. It also provides the facility for the issue and redemption of securities.
What are the National stock exchanges of India?
India has two national level stock exchanges – National stock exchange and Bombay stock exchange.
National Stock Exchange (NSE)
According to the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) report, NSE is the second largest stock exchange in the world by numbers of trades in equity shares from January to June 2018.
The NSE has nearly 1952 listed companies (as of April 2018) and a market capitalization of $2.7 trillion (as of April 2018).
Above all, NSE was the first exchange of India to afford a fully automated screen-based electronic trading system. Therefore, it provides a comfortable trading facility for investors across the whole world.
In the year 1994 NSE launched electronic screen-based trading in derivatives in the form of index futures. Therefore, NSE is a pioneer in technology implementation in the share transaction.
Today, NSE conducts transactions in the wholesale debt, equity, and derivative markets. Benchmark index of NSE is NIFTY. It offers NIFTY 50 Index which tracks the largest assets in the Indian equity market.

Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)
Premchand Roychand was founded BSE in 1875. He entered the lists as a stockbroker in the year 1849. He was recorded as the first Indian broker able to speak, read and write English.
BSE is Asia's first & the Fastest Stock Exchange in the world with the speed of 6 microseconds. It also provides depository services through its Central Depository Services Ltd. (CDSL).
BSE systems and processes are designed to drive the growth of the Indian capital market and stimulate innovation and competition across all market segments. So, this was the first exchange in India and second in the world to obtain an ISO 9001:2000 certifications.
Benchmark index of BSE is Sensex. The BSE has nearly 5439 listed companies (as of April 2018) and a market capitalization of $2.3 trillion (as of April 2018).
Bombay Stock Exchange Website: Bombay Stock Exchange
What are the Commodity market and Commodity Exchange?
A commodity market is a kind of market that trades in the primary sector rather than the manufactured products.
- Soft commodities are agricultural products – wheat, coffee, cocoa, fruit, sugar, etc.
- Hard commodities are mined metal, gold, silver, soybeans, crude oil, etc.
So, the commodity exchange is an exchange where various commodities, agricultural products, and other raw materials are traded.
The SEBI controlled the commodity market in India since September 2015. Before that Forward Market Commission, Overseen by Ministry of Consumer Affairs regulated Commodities market.
The trade timings of the Commodity Exchange from Monday to Friday are Indian Standard Time – 10 am to 11.30pm.

What are the functions of Stock exchange?
Here are some of the crucial Functions of the Stock Exchanges in India.
Economic barometer
So, the stock exchanges is a much reliable barometer to gauge the economic health of any country. Every significant change in a country reflected in its economy as well as the prices of shares. Therefore, the rise or fall in the share prices indicates the upward or downward trend in economic growth.
Safety in stock transactions
Above all, only the listed companies under stock exchanges authorities are allowed to offer their share publically in the stock market. So, these exchange authorities allowed these companies names in the trade list only after verifying the soundness of the company. Therefore, in the time of trading, these companies operated within the strict rules and regulations.
Stock exchange protect investors
So, one of the most significant purposes of the stock exchanges is to guard investors' money against any type of fraud. Only genuine companies are listed in the stock exchange, and all kind of activities are controlled by of them. Therefore, the funds of the investors are very much protected.
Control on companies
The listed companies have to submit their annual report, and audited balance sheet to the stock exchanges in every quarter. Otherwise, such companies will be blacklisted, and they will find it difficult to raise their capital any more. In this way, investors also become alert about the growth of the companies. So, they can more invest or withdraw their hard earned money on time.
Attracts foreign capital
As because of dynamism and higher return on capital, the stock exchanges in India are capable of attracting more foreign investors. In this way, the exchanges rate of the currency will improve when there is more trade undertaken by the government.
Mobility of funds
The stock exchanges allow both the investors and the companies to buy or sell shares in a regulated manner and to create the availability of funds. Therefore, the stock exchanges are facilitated allocation of the funds of the investor to the productive channels and strengthened the economy crucially.
Stock exchange helps Capital formation
Stock exchanges play a vital role in capital formation in any country. So, a company when wants to go for diversification they can issue the shares and raise more funds. Therefore, they can generate more capital, and this promotes economic growth in the country as well.
The main function of the stock exchange is to provide a ready market for buy or sale of securities. Above all, due to the presence of stock exchanges in the market gives assurance to the investors that their investment can be converted into cash whenever they required. So, the investors can invest in long-term investment projects without any hesitation. Because of the stock exchanges, they can convert a long-term investment into short term and medium term easily.
Promotes the Habits of Savings and Investment
The stock market offers attractive opportunities for investment in various shares, bonds, and securities. Therefore, these kinds of opportunities encourage people to save more and investment.
Bottom Line
Now, let sum-up our discussion. However, we can realize the necessity of stock exchanges in this way. So, if there were no stock exchanges in your country how you would find a seller or a buyer? Maybe you could, but it would take an enormous time to find the right one. Again, there will be no authenticity of the buyer or seller. Therefore, the stock exchange is the solution.
Stock exchanges provide a filter for you. In other words, Stock exchanges ensure that only legal businesses with healthy balance sheets get listed on the exchanges.
At last, let think from the perspective of a company owner. For instance, you are the owner of the company, and you want to raise capital to grow your business. The simple and effective way would be to offer shares to the public through a stock exchange for capital expansions. So, again stock exchange is your solution.

The end of Bank of America Merchant Services, a merchant-acquiring joint venture between Bank of America Corp. and First Data Corp., is at hand.
Charlotte, N.C.-based BofA said Monday it will pursue an independent merchant-acquiring strategy beginning in June 2020, though First Data, which that same day became part of Fiserv Inc., will continue as an "important service provider supporting Bank of America's global payment solutions." Bank of America Merchant Services says it processes 17.3 billion transactions annually at more than 700,000 merchant locations.
The announcement said the joint venture will end when the current contract expires. BofA said no service disruption should happen because of an agreement between the two to serve BAMS clients through at least June 2023. First Data will continue to provide processing services at current rates through 2023. Unlike two other First Data joint ventures with banks, with Wells Fargo & Co. and PNC Financial Services, BAMS had a 10-year contract when signed in 2009. The others are five years and have been renewed several times.
Bank of America and First Data will split the merchant portfolio based on the joint-venture ownership rate. Fiserv/First Data expects to retain 51% of the merchants, while BofA will keep the remaining 49%.
The contract will govern the division of merchants, Jeffery W. Yabuki, Fiserv chairman and chief executive, said Tuesday in a conference call with analysts about the announcement. While the BAMS portfolio has a sizable small and mid-size merchant contingent, it also has numerous enterprise clients, Frank Bisignano, Fiserv president, chief operating officer, and director, told analysts. "This is not an SMB-only book," said Bisignano, the former CEO of First Data. "It's a fairly large enterprise book."
Bisignano said many of the larger merchants came from First Data and have been part of the joint venture since its inception. "We will do what's right for our clients," he said. Executives with both companies agreed not to disregard that notion as the division of clients happens, he added.
The end of the joint venture is not indicative of the relationship between the two companies, Yabuki said. "We have a deep commitment to continuing to work with Bank of America," Yabuki said. "Bank of America will continue to be a very important client." The dissolution is a reflection the respective strategies of the two companies, he added.
Bank of America also pointed at the role of payments for the move. "Payments are at the core of our business, and this announcement is another step forward in our global strategy to provide companies of all sizes an integrated payment offering. We look forward to investing in our merchant solution and delivering the capabilities our clients need to thrive in an ever-changing payments environment," Mark Monaco, head of enterprise payments at Bank of America, said in a statement. "We look forward to continuing our long-standing business relationship with First Data."
Multiple factors likely contributed to the decision not to renew the BAMS joint venture.
"There are a lot of reasons why BAMS could have done this," Thad Peterson, senior analyst at Boston-based Aite Group, says in an email to Digital Transactions News. "Fiserv directly supports processing for thousands of competitive banks so having the First Data processing function JV in place as part of Fiserv might be seen as a competitive threat. Note that they will still be using First Data processing for offshore payments, which wouldn't be competitive with BAMS."
Bank of America also may have considered the rate of change and consolidation in merchant processing and wanted "more control over their offering and how it's delivered by bringing it in-house," says Peterson. "It's critical that BAMS be able to effectively support their merchant base as new payment alternatives and processes come online. They need to control their own destiny in the space."
Rumors of the dissolution of the 10-year-old joint venture surfaced in May, especially in light of the then-pending merger between Fiserv and First Data. That deal closed Monday.
In other acquiring news, Global Payments Inc. said the pending $21.5 billion merger between it and Total System Services Inc. (TSYS) could close early in the fourth quarter.
Advanced integration planning spurred the announcement, said Jeffrey S. Sloan, chief executive, in a Tuesday conference call with analysts to discuss the Atlanta-based processor's second-quarter results.
"Our integration planning is underway," Sloan says. "We could not be more excited about the future."
Global Payments reported revenue of $935.2 million, a 12.2% increase from $833.2 million in 2018's second quarter. Net income of $130 million increased 10.5% from $117.7 million last year.

4 Sustainable Fashion Brands to Know
There's been an increased focus recently on environmental awareness, particularly when purchasing new products. Because of this, many new, up-and-coming fashion brands are opting to focus on clothing made using environmentally sustainable practices and materials. Not only is purchasing from a sustainable fashion brand ethically the right thing to do, but it can also give you some serious street cred. Some of the most exciting names in fashion right now are sustainable brands. Here are some of the top names in eco-friendly fashion that you need to know now and how you can style each piece.
Maggie Marilyn
Maggie Marilyn is a sustainable fashion brand based in New Zealand. The designs combine elements of luxury with utilitarian designs that feel comfortable and look flattering. They are known for their long skirts and ruffled tops, which are very chic without being too over the top. Each makes a statement while still having an elegant modesty, and you can easily pair the dresses with your favorite high heels or even a leather jacket if you want to ramp them up a bit. The long dresses work equally well for a night out or for a casual brunch, so they are a great investment for any woman that wants to look both chic and comfortable. Every piece is made in New Zealand, and is packaged in compostable sleeves. Maggie Marilyn works with local manufacturers as well, so when you order them, you're supporting small businesses run by expert craftsmen.
Stella Jean
Stella Jean has gained notoriety over the past few years because of her work with Giorgio Armani. Often referred to as Armani's protege, Jean is based in Rome, but is from a Haitian and Caribbean background. She brings her heritage into her designs with bright colors, tropical patterns, and lots of wrap tops and dresses that evoke the feeling of a beautiful and warm island. She only works with a few small African fabric producers, so she's able to bypass much of the negativity associated with larger manufacturers. Her brand make an effort to support the cultures that are inspiring her designs, which is something we don't see often with big-name designers. Each of her collections are small but distinctive, and you can expect to see her dresses worn by Instagram stars or even on the red carpet in the near future as an up-and-coming sustainable fashion brand.
Re/Done is a sustainable fashion brand that focuses entirely on authentic, refurbished denim. Purchasing recycled clothing is one of the best ways to be kind to the planet, since the production of new clothing in factories can be very detrimental to our planet and even our healthy. Re/Done offers some of the most flattering, versatile denim pieces on the market for both men and women, and they give you a bit of instant 'cool' because they are so authentic. In addition to sourcing vintage denim, they also have refurbished Hanes t-shirts and other shirts. Many of their pieces have a Californian, beach-chic vibe, so they are ideal for casual summertime outfits. Pair them with your favorite high-top sneakers or military jacket to complete the look. Each piece is manufactured in Downtown Los Angeles by hand, and they are all small batch because they are hand-picked.
Kayu is one of the only sustainable fashion brands that focuses entirely on bags. They make bags in a wide range of different styles, including clutches, wallet pouches, totes, and more. Most of the pieces are made with light colors and summer-y materials that would be perfect to take to the beach with you, but could work equally well for your day-to-day life in the city. The bags are made in unique shapes that will quickly become the centerpiece of your outfit, but their light color schemes mean they aren't too over-the-top. The bags are made with locally sourced natural straw, and they are made by artisans in the Phillippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Most of their team is women, and many of the artisans are working mothers as well. Kayu is committed to employing talented women around the world to provide support to people who wouldn't otherwise have it.

EDEKA has become the first sponsor of the Hamburg 2024 bid for the Olympic Sumer and Paralympic Games. The Hamburg-headquartered supermarket group will become a top-tier national partner of the bid, with exclusive rights in the food trade and nutrition categories. The deal will run until the International Olympic Committee (IOC) makes its decision on the host of the 2024 Games at its session in Lima, Peru in September 2017.The Hamburg 2024 bid team has created three sponsorship tiers: national partner, patron, and friend. Edeka, a supporter of Hamburg's bid from the very start, has chosen the highest category.
Great Trust by the Economy
Hamburg 2024 managing director Nikolas Hill said: "The bid committee is very pleased to sign a locally based , strong partner, but one whose 4,000 locations across the country showed this was a bid for all of Germany. The fact EDEKA signed the contract at such an early stage reflects the great trust of the economy in our concept and is a great signal for the coming months. "
Best Conditions in Hamburg
"EDEKA stands behind the application, because the 2024 games are a unique opportunity for the city and the people" ,says Markus Mosa, CEO of EDEKA AG. "The 2024 Olympics in Hamburg will not only delight the citizens of Hamburg, but athletes and fans from near and far. The Hamburg locals are best to make the games a success: they are cosmopolitan, committed, and sports enthusiasts!"
Both partners are hoping for the support of the Hamburg population in the referendum. This also applies to Eric Johannesen, 2012 Olympic champion in rowing eight, who accompanied the signing ceremony: "The Olympic ideal stands for international understanding across all borders", says Johannesen. "Especially in the light of what happened in the last few weeks, it would be a great encouragement if Hamburg sent out a clear sign of the unifying power of sport. We sportsmen also know that we need strong partners, if you will be victorious. As a Hamburg local, it has became obvious in recent months that EDEKA has been heavily promoting Hamburg's application. Therefore, I am very pleased that the way taken will now be even more pursued by joining forces with the bid committee."
Olympic Ambassador of the Very First Hour
The EDEKA headquarters in Hamburg have been Olympic ambassadors of the first hour. As a sponsor of the city's Olympic "Fire & Flame" initiative, the group has been promoting Hamburg's bid among customers and employees with a variety of actions. "We are thrilled by the idea of hosting the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in in Hamburg, and we are enthusiastic about and convinced by the concept", explains Markus Mosa.
Collecting Stickers for the 2024 Olympics
EDEKA is represented throughout Germany by approximately 7,300 EDEKA markets and more than 4,100 stores. There, customers can show their support for Olympics in Hamburg by filling Panini scrapbooks with 132 stickers. The proceeds from the sale of albums and stickers will be donated to sport projects in Hamburg. The Panini scrapbook costs 1.50 euro, a bag of five stickers 50 cents.
