CAL Bank develops new strategy for customers' service delivery
Thursday 16th May, 2019
Mr Phillip Owiredu
By Morkporkpor Anku, GNA
Accra, May 16, GNA - Mr Phillip Owiredu, Executive Director of CAL Bank Limited on Thursday said the bank will continue to leverage on technology to improve on its operations and provide quality service to its customers.
He said Management had developed a new strategy, which builds on its earlier strategy of digital transformation to enhance its operational activities.
The new strategy seeks to build the organization into a platform through which customers can connect to enhance their businesses and access all the bank's products and services at their convenience.
Speaking at the second 2019 'Facts behind the figures' session, organised by the Ghana Stock Exchange in Accra, Mr Owiredu said the bank's key focus areas for the new strategy includes retail banking, corporate banking, people, technology, and risk management and compliance.
"The three-year strategy will be on the theme 'Building a Digital Bank'," he added.
On agency banking, the Executive Director said there has been an agency agreement with the International Finance Corporation to deploy agent banks, in a bid to reach the unbanked, and mobilise deposits at cheaper cost.
He said currently, they have started on a low key but the whole platform would be launched fully at the end of the second quarter.
"We do not expect to get high deposits but going forward these deposits will increase, when we fully launch onto the market," he said.
Mr Owiredu said the bank's Net interest, which contributed 80 per cent, was primarily driven by a 24.3 per cent increase in Net loans and the Non-interest income declined from 23.2 per cent of operating income to 20 per cent in the first quarter of 2019, due to decrease in fees and commissions.
He said operating income and profit before tax grew by 27.3 per cent and 22.5 per cent year-on-year respectively, adding that, profitability went up by 23 per cent, which compared to what was on the market and it was a reasonable growth for the bank.
He said in terms of their financial position, total assets went up by 14.2 per cent and deposits by 3.3 per cent, and that was quiet a low growth but obviously looking at the challenges in the industry, deposits for a local bank was a problem.
Mr Owiredu said deposits as at the end of April, had gone beyond the 3 billion mark, and currently at 3.3 billion and expressed the hope that the increase will continue till the end of the year.
Ms Dzifa Amegashie, the Investor Relations Manager, said the bank was the only indigenous private bank that raised the GHc400 million minimum capital requirements without raising capital.
She said what they did was to transfer GHc 300 million from their income surplus account to add up to the 100 million in their stated accounts.

In the past, the only way consumers had access to coupons was by clipping them out of the newspaper or a mailer. Today, while these types of print coupons are still used in households across the country, more, and more consumers are doing their "coupon clipping" online.
Coupons are still widely used. In fact, according to a recent study, 85% of Americans use coupons. What's more, the majority of the growth is due to digital and mobile-friendly offers, suggesting that cross-platform coupon integration is a must for your business.
To get started, let's look at some best practices that you can use to integrate your coupons across print, social, and digital platforms. These practices will impact how you approach the written copy, design, and tracking of your coupons — as well as how you might alter those elements slightly while moving from one channel to another.
Copy: The three C's of marketing can be applied when it comes to writing copy for your coupons. Your copy, in other words, must be Clear, Compelling, and Consistent. Utilizing consistent verbiage, attention-grabbing calls-to-action, and clear value statements are important for design, but it's even more important when you're integrating across multiple platforms.
With that said, a few copy tweaks might be necessary based on your medium and audience. Strong copy requires a strong call-to-action. Keeping your CTAs consistent and to the point is a best practice regardless of your medium. Be clear about what you're asking the consumer to do and provide actionable next steps. For example, Click here to get 10% off your next purchase! or Redeem today to receive 10% off your next purchase!
Think about how your copy might need to change to adapt to print vs. digital or social. Does your audience change any from one channel to the next? For instance, your social offers may be targeting younger, socially active females, where your print offers may be targeting younger, stay at home moms. Identifying who you're marketing to, per channel, and how that affects your advertising is key to integrating your coupons effectively.
Design: Design consistency is also a best practice when it comes to integrating your marketing. You want customers to be able to look at your coupons in any format—print, social, or digital—and immediately connect them with your business. Incorporating your logo, choosing a color scheme, and a consistent typeface for your coupons is important to appropriately represent your brand. Just like with copy, you should be able to easily adapt your basic design template to suit multiple coupon channels. The structure and creative elements of the coupon should remain the same but the coupon creative itself may need to be adjust to meet the different specs of different outlets.
Leave spots in your design for cross-promotional elements. For instance, your email newsletter could include a hashtag or social share buttons for purchasers to use to tell their friends about the excellent deal they got. You can also use your print coupons in a similar fashion by driving traffic to a specific URL. This not only helps increase visits to your site but it can also help advertisers to track where these visits came from.
On digital and social channels, you also need to be sure your coupon designs are optimized for mobile devices. Mobile usage is consistently increasing and coupons that consumers can easily access on their devices are likely to receive the most engagement.
Tracking: The final best practice for integrating coupons across multiple channels is to track how customers are actually using your coupons. You can make use of specific tracking codes for digital, social, and print in order to track the engagement and redemptions of your offers per channel. Once the expiration date has elapsed, analyze the information to determine which channel is delivering the most results. Are your print placements paying off, or are most of your redemptions coming from social media? Use this information to determine where to emphasize your focus and/or how to adjust campaigns in different channels to improve future performance.
To understand how you might integrate your coupons across digital, social, and print channels, let's take a look at a basic business scenario. A national grocery store chain is offering a promotion where redeeming a coupon can earn shoppers 10% off honey-baked hams in December. The question is, how would this grocery store need to change their coupons between print, social, and digital channels to keep the same integrity, but integrate their message effectively?
First, the grocery store chain might think about how their offer's copy would need to be adjusted to integrate into each platform. For example, print coupons may be targeted toward decision makers of the household, while social coupons may target younger families that are planning for family and friends during the holidays.
The grocery store chain might also modify the design and typeface slightly to create more engagement on digital and social channels. Most coupons typically include some fine print, providing information about redemption, purchase requirements, and limitations. These fine print selections (as well as barcodes) are essential for coupons but don't always lend themselves well to eye-catching design. As a result, the grocery store might create simpler, more aesthetically pleasing coupon ads for social and digital promotion. They can then incorporate a "Click here to claim your offer!" call-to-action that directs shoppers to access the actual barcoded coupon.
Integrating your coupons effectively across social, print, and digital channels does not need to be hard. By optimizing your copy and creative for the appropriate medium, identify your audience, and having a method of tracking your performance you'll be on your way to a successful coupon campaign regardless of the medium you're advertising on.

Our talented team of designers are more than just floral experts - they are plant experts as well! We do our best to carry a wide range of houseplants, from basic ferns to exotic, tropical options. Just in the shop are some of our favorites thus far - bromeliads! These tropical plants are great for either indoor or outdoor life. Read below to learn about their care.
Watering: like most houseplants, bromeliads are extremely sensitive to over-watering. They are drought-resistant, meaning that the soil should dry out completely between waterings. We recommend bringing the plant to the sink, turning on the faucet, and letting the water run completely though the drain holes for a few seconds. Be sure to let all of the water run through before replacing in the decorative pot.
An interesting feature of bromeliads is that they also have a tank, where all of their leaves meet in the center of the plant. They will also take up water through this tank, but be sure to replace water occasionally to avoid stagnant water.
Light: Bromeliads will be happiest in a room with bright, indirect sunlight. Do not let the plant in direct sun for too long, as it could cause sunburn.
Humidity: since they are tropical plants, bromedliads love humidity. A good way to achieve this is to place a few rocks at the bottom of their grow pot with a small amount of water (be sure the roots at the bottom of the grow pot do not touch the water). This will create a nice humid environment for them. Another option is a small mister, to be misted every day.
Flowering: bromeliads only flower once in their lifetime, but will sprout brightly colored leaves that are often mistaken for flowers.
Interested in our bromeliads? Be sure to stop by and see them in person, or send as a exotic, tropical gift!


XONOCHOCO – a chocolate brand, the idea and the name of which has a truly historical roots. This is a story about the role of the ancient Aztecs in chocolate development, interpreted in packaging design.
The name derives from the name of Xoconochco area conquered by the Aztecs, which had the largest plantation of cocoa beans. As we know cocoa beans were valued more than gold and served as currency.
Aztecs are known as a very advanced ancient civilization that, according to some researchers, could be influenced by an alien civilization. The Aztecs were very religious and in fact bloodthirsty people whose gods needed human victims.
Packaging Design - is the interpretation of archaeological findings and contemporary cultural stereotypes. Each type of chocolate bears one of the historical features of the Aztecs' culture. Thus a skull on the chocolate with chili filling symbolizes the extreme combination of flavors, at the same time reminiscent of Aztec cruelty. Alien reminds us that the aliens could play some role in the development of this civilization.

Can my boss withhold my bonus if I leave the company?
What happens to my share options if I leave?
Bonus arrangements are often described as discretionary but once targets are agreed and an employee achieves those targets then the bonus will often become contractual and enforceable. The fact that colleagues have received bonus payments strengthens your position because when an employer exercises discretion in such circumstances, it must do so fairly between employees.
However, there may be bonus payment conditions, such as a requirement that you are still in employment on the date the bonus becomes payable or that you not serving notice.
Share option rights are usually set out in specific agreements. Rights will vary but you may lose options once notice has been given particularly where options have not vested. You should take advice before you give notice.

A debt jubilee may be coming. In the simplest form of a jubilee, all debts are erased. While that may sound like a fictional event, jubilees have happened when a community's debts become large enough to threaten the economy. That can seem like a great idea to those in debt, it also impacts savings and retirements. A UN conference (UNCTAD) has suggested such a scenario. The global economy may be out of crisis, generally; but there are underlying trends that suggest another economic crisis is about to occur. The global economy isn't in crisis, but it is growing far more slowly than cash infusion and low interest rates would suggest. Without the cash infusion and low interest rates, the global economy may enter deflation. It may already be there, even with supports. Because cash infusions and low borrowing rates to financial institutions haven't generated growth but instead have encouraged wealth accumulation, UNCTAD has suggested a debt jubilee, particularly to help developing nations. The subprime mortgage crisis of 2008 happened because of $2T. The debt level in emerging nations is now over $25T, more than twelve times higher. Without a systemic change in debt, such high levels could initiate yet another collapse, possibly a much larger one than last time.

Spots of Jupiter seen passing
Jupiter's Great Red Spot, white in this false-color, infrared image, is seen passing "Red Spot Junior" in this July 13 composite photo from the Gemini Observatory on Mauna Kea. Red Spot Junior, about the size of Earth, formed in 1998-2000 as a white spot, but amateur Philippine astronomer Christopher Go discovered on Feb. 27 that it had turned red. This was the first time the two spots, moving in opposite directions, have been photographed together. The spots are actually giant storms.

Mentally ill man allegedly stabs in-law
A Maunawili man suffering from mental problems allegedly stabbed his 77-year-old mother-in-law multiple times at their Kailua home yesterday, police said.
They said the victim was making lunch for her 56-year-old son-in-law in their home at 1023 Maunawili Road when he began poking himself with a steak knife. The victim attempted to take the knife away but was stabbed in her stomach and lower back, police said.
Paramedics transported the victim to the Queen's Medical Center in serious but stable condition around 11:25 a.m.
Police said the suspect, who has a history of mental illness and diminished cognitive ability due to brain surgery, was arrested without incident for investigation of second-degree attempted murder.

Dental data confirms fire victim's identity
Police confirmed a body found in the charred remains of an Ahualoa home fire earlier this month was that of 30-year-old King B. Prine.
His identity was confirmed last week through dental records, and an autopsy report two weeks ago discovered he died from thermal injuries sustained during the blaze.
On July 1, Hamakua patrol officers responded to a reported violation of a protective order at the Ahualoa home shortly after 3 p.m. They made verbal contact with a man who remained inside and warned them to leave. A short time later, the officers heard an explosion, and the home quickly became engulfed in flames.
The case will undergo a coroner's inquest.

Education, Civil Rights, Disability, Religious Groups Promote "Redefining Accountability" To Replace "No Child Left Behind"
Submitted by fairtest on May 28, 2007 - 10:33am
Sara Robertson (202) 230-8978 Robert Schaeffer (239) 395-6773 Dr. Monty Neill (617) 335-2115
Leaders of national education, civil rights, religious, disability and children's organizations today unveiled proposals to replace the test-based sanctions of the federal "No Child Left Behind" (NCLB) law with means to hold states and localities accountable for making systemic changes that improve student achievement as well as improvements in learning as measured by multiple assessment tools.
The Forum on Educational Accountability (FEA) report, Redefining Accountability: Improving Student Learning by Building Capacity, includes nearly two dozen "fundamental reforms" in professional development, family involvement and accountability. The FEA recommendations are based on the principles of the Joint Organizational Statement on the NCLB Act, now signed by 106 groups.
"There is a growing national consensus - as demonstrated by public opinion polls - that NCLB's punitive approach undermines its goal of high quality education for all children," explained Reggie Felton, who works in the Advocacy and Issues Management Section at the National School Boards Association. "Instead of being judged against arbitrary Adequate Yearly Progress standardized exam targets, districts and states should be held accountable for making changes that really improve student achievement."
The FEA's proposals would relieve districts of the requirement to spend federal grant money on transferring students to different schools and on private tutoring firms. Instead the funds would be used to intensify staff professional training for educators working in low-performing schools, strengthen parent and community involvement in school improvement, and provide literacy skills for families that need them.
"Building the capacity of schools to effectively educate all children and the capacity of families to support their children's learning should be the primary federal focus," added Jan Resseger, of the United Church of Christ Justice and Witness Ministries. "This requires fully funding the law so that it covers all eligible children. Anything less is immoral."
"To make these reforms possible, NCLB's system of tests and sanctions must be replaced," said Monty Neill, Executive Director of the National Center for Fair & Open Testing (FairTest). "States and districts should intervene only when a school fails to implement fundamental changes or when it does not establish a positive trend in learning outcomes, identified using multiple assessment measures, based on rational expectations, in a reasonable time frame."
Joel Packer, Director of Education Policy and Practice for the National Education Association, continued, "The proposals in Redefining Accountability are consistent with recommendations made recently by ten U.S. Senators in a letter to Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Chairman Edward Kennedy. A broad consensus on the changes that are needed in NCLB is clearly emerging."
"It is imperative that NCLB fairly and appropriately assess students with disabilities," said Daniel Blair, senior director of Policy and Advocacy Services at the Council for Exceptional Children. "We hope that significant changes that will allow that to happen will be made in the reauthorization of NCLB. The FEA's recommendations present a good starting point for us to improve the assessment of students with disabilities so that we have information about how each child is progressing individually, as well as information about the child's achievement in relation to the standardized scores of children without disabilities."
On Wednesday afternoon, February 21, FEA leaders will brief staff of the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee on the Redefining Accountability report recommendations. This session will run from 1:30 to 3:30 pm in room 430 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building and is open to the news media.
This spring, FEA will release a report on assessment alternatives, to complement the recommendations in Redefining Accountability.

Jessie Rix of Fergus Falls, MN was just looking for a running buddy when she signed up as a volunteer with Achilles International -- a non-profit that pairs able-bodied runners with disabled runners. Rix was partnered with Anthony Butler, who had lost his sight 10 years earlier in a tragic shooting.
"Everyone used to call me bright eyes," Butler told Good Morning America, "so I'm like, 'Oh my God, I don't have my eyes anymore. 'That's like my trademark. What am I going to do?'"
He turned to running, which is how he and Rix eventually met. It wasn't long before they were more than just running partners.
Together, the two have completed four marathons around the world over the past two years. They learned to keep pace by running with a tether attached to each other.
On Sunday, November 4 they run the the New York City Marathon together.

While the Friday crew was getting together to head off to Albert Uster and Penn Quarter for some shopping, I was chided into making sure that Caramel Corn was on the menu for the Meet and Greet Friday night.
Can't wait! Our drive feels like its taking FOREVER!
Wow, Robert, that is one HUGE copper pot! Caramel popcorn, yummm!
I love your set up for making caramel corn....can you share some more details with us? What is the make of the equipment or is it something you made. I have only done small batches of caramel corn but I dreamed of larger equipment so I didn't have to make soooo much in busy season.
Looking forward to seeing more of your days, really wishing I could be there too!
Can only give you a teaser this am - because I don't have time to post thoroughly (and I don't really have a whole lot of pictures that I took yesterday - too busy doing stuff).
At dinner last night we had draws for the door prizes - there were Cacao Barry T shirts, a magnetic mold and a 'chocolate kit' provided by Chocolat-chocolat. There was also a series of chablons and a backing board provided by Design and Realization.
So the picture is Rob (gfron1) showing off the magnetic mold he won.
Just back from the conference and what a great time it was!! I'm going to need two days just to put together everything I learned. But the best part of all was meeting everyone! Thanks Robert and everyone else who made it such a great experience!
Just got back as well and I can also say it was a fantastic experience. I learned a ton and had a great time. I am totally exhausted! It was fun to put faces to all the screen names. I have really enjoyed the eGullet community since joining, but being able to meet so many eGulleters really makes it feel like even more of a community. As much as I value the information I gained from the conference, I value the new friendships much more.
RobertM, thank you SO much for putting so much effort into the conference, and to all the other long time eGullet members who made us newbies feel welcome. And to anyone who is on the fence about attending an eGullet event (like the upcoming Heartland event), I would absolutely recommend you do so. I have not had such fun in quite a while.
If any of my pics turned out, I'll post them in the next day or two.
A teaser photo, the finished showpiece! Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Since I can't fall asleep because my mind is going a million mph with all I have learned over this weekend, I thought I would go ahead and post my account of the 2012 conference from a first-timers perspective. The whole weekend was amazing and there were always several things going on at once so there will be a lot that I miss and I hope others will post their experiences too!
We arrived late Friday and so our event was the meet and greet in the lobby at the hotel. To me, this was overwhelming- so many people together with a passion for chocolate! Everyone brought samples and set them out; the table was just beautiful and would cause envy for most people- I know it did with my friends on Facebook! It is amazing how there are so many experienced people who share freely of the info they have spent years figuring out. It seems every five minutes I was writing another tip in my notebook- now to reorganize and rewrite it all when I get home! I think a fun time was had by all as we met each other and put faces with screen names while enjoying a little (or a lot) of wine. We had several local people, as well as some who traveled from as far away as Iowa, Utah, New Mexico, Canada and even Denmark. That should speak to how awesome these conferences are that people travel from so far to attend.
We started bright and early Saturday morning with Joe Sophia from Cargill/Peters chocolate doing the first demo. He demoed a bananas foster Bon Bon that was piped into a dipped mold, and I think he capped that mold with not one drop of chocolate running down the side of the mold. He then made a carrot cake slabbed confection to set for dipping the next day. There was discussion about sourcing chocolate and a survey on how everyone tempers. Chris tables and just about everyone else seeds in one was or another. We broke for a wonderful lunch prepared for us by the culinary students at Stratford and everything they made was delicious! After lunch, Rob Connoley started our chocolate showpiece demo. There are a lot of talented chocolatiers here on EG and the showpiece in its finality had granite chocolate, carved chocolate, molded chocolate, modeling chocolate.... You name it I think we tried it! We had the opportunity to make flowers by making petals and then piecing them together and also by sculpting from modeling chocolate. It was great to see how everyone varied the techniques and came up with their own unique designs. While this was taking place there were several other things going on too, with Ruth (chocolot) doing fondant for creme fillings and Kerry doing a basic tempering class. One of the chefs from the school demoed making a gianduja torte which was really delicious. These pieces were used in Kerry's demo on dipping chocolates. We were served dinner at the school and the chefs really outdid themselves with our St Patty's day meal. Afterwards we all rolled out the door at the end of the day!
Day two we spent a lot more time "doing" working on our own and in small groups. Steve gave a great demo on airbrushing and decoration of molds. Many of us had a hand at airbrushing and really enjoyed it. It is amazing what the application of color will do to give your chocolates that professional look. Kerry gave several demos again, making lemon curd in the thermomix, pâté de fruits, making aerated chocolates with the isi dessert whip (a flop but we got to see the technique)! Rob demoed making a raspberry caramel, Ruth demoed making tulip cups and stemmed tulips. There was a whole lot of md decorating & filling and a lot of mold banging! Erica (chocoera) demonstrated her shoe decorating technique and Donna (curls) demoed how to flock her adorable flop eared bunny. Rob put our showpiece elements together and made a silk purse out of a sows ear! We had another wonderful meal made by the chefs and culinary students, then it was a frantic push to finish all we had going. As things were finished we brought them out to the dining area and the spread was truly beautiful. Everyone has their own unique style and you could see that shining through all the work. Everyone participated in cleaning the kitchen then we spent some time chatting and ooohing and ahhhing over the finished chocolates. We all left with new knowledge, new friends, and probably some new plans to work out doubly this week to make up for the extravagant meals and never ending chocolate buffet! I know I left with tons of new ideas, new friends, plans to purchase items I never knew I needed and couldn't live without, and new confidence in my own abilities with chocolate. I am already planning to attend next year at Niagara on the Lake!
If there are spelling or grammar errors, they are probably my fault but let's pretend they were caused by "darn you autocorrect!"
A HUGE thank you goes out to Robert for putting this whole thing together. It was a super fantastic time!
Sounds like it was a fantastic time. So sorry to have not been able to attend this year. I lot of effort goes into putting on one of these conferences and kudos to RobertM and all the others who helped to make this year's Chocolate Conference a success. Is it too early to start planning for next year's??
I'm hoping the recipes for Banana Foster, Carrot Cake slab as well as other ones that were made at the conference will be posted. I would be anxious to try them.
Looking forward to seeing all the chocolate work and results of your experiments.
Thanks to everyone for sharing your confection knowledge over the weekend. Robert you did a fabulous job of planning the conference!
can i just say that i love love love love bob and love love love love love his caramel corn? mmmmm...... also, big kudos to bob for the wonderful conference! great location, fun speakers (a big hello to joe when he joins eG...or should i say "cocoa joe?!" ) and AMAZING FOOD AND CHOCOLATES!
i might actually have enough gumption to try a sculpture for my family or for the shop thanks to Rob's (gfron1) spirited and comical presentation. he made it so approachable and fun and his skill and passion are noteworthy and inspiring-thanks so much!
really loved the airbrush demo with talk of different techniques, places to get start up equipment, and ways to bring out your creative side- his pieces that were just "to show/demo" turned out to be some of the most beautiful i saw! thanks so much steve!
and a big thank you to all the virgins that showed up we love new faces and opinions and love that you all want to come back! yea!!
thanks for a great weekend everyone, and hope to see you next year!
Having missed last years event I was really looking forward to this weekend. I wasn't disappointed. Of course, the highlight is getting to meet so many people that share our passion and to put faces (and real names) with the eG handles everyone posts under.
There was simply so much going on, there was no way to be bored. Demos from Joe, Kerry, Rob, and even my own humble efforts with air brushing. Of course, we all wanted to make things and it amazed me to see the buffet at the end of the weekend.
Joe Sofia made his first appearance and demoed making both a molded bon bon (Bananas Foster) and a slabbed bon bon (Carrot Cake).
For what I believe may have been an eG Workshop first, Rob C (gfron1) constructed with a little help from many contributors a showpiece appropriate to the time of year (St. Patrick's Day).
Of course, with Easter not too far off, we had to have at least one bunny appearance.
Big thanks to RobertM for organizing not just a wonderful event, but also a great venue. Stratford University was a gracious host and an excellent facility.
I'm sure we'll see much more from others who attended.
Raspberry caramel? That sounds awesome - Robert, could you share your recipe, please?
Steve and Donna - thank you for the pics! I am so jealous!!
Stratford University (Woodbridge Campus) for allowing us to invade your entire third floor for two days and the wonderful, outstanding hospitality you shared with us. Everyone at Stratford was AMAZING, the lunches and dinner were truly stunning and delicious.
Joe "Coco Joe" Sofia for spending the ENTIRE weekend with us and providing some amazing instructions on several different techniques and formula development. Joe even jumped in on other areas of chocolate work, helping people make flowers for the Showpiece, helping people with their molding techniques, and other one on one formula development! Can't wait for you to join eGullet Joe and continue to join us here online and in person!!!
To Cargill/Wilbur for their VERY generous donations of ingredients, your willingness to help underwrite the cost through your generous donations helped to keep the cost of the weekend to the attendees reasonable for all.
Kerry Beal, for her continued support and encouragement over the last few months and for her willingness to do several demo's, including her basic tempering class; pate de fruit and of course, the mighty Thermomix, and for setting the bar on the toys that someone in the chocolate world can own. I don't know what can be said about Kerry that hasn't been said a million times over, but, my world has become that much better and a great deal brighter for your guidance, mentoring and friendship.
To Rob, for his very high energy presentation and his amazing sculpture which is still being enjoyed here in Woodbridge. I shall never be able to hear the expression "straight face" again without thinking of you!
To Chef Rubber for his donation of cocoa butters for use during the weekend, and thank you to Steve Lebowitz for his teaching the mold decorating portion of the weekend and helping everyone and anyone with his wisdom and advice.
To Amoretti and your donation of flavor samples that assisted everyone this weekend to produce some very, very amazing truffles and bon bons.
To Chocolot (Ruth) for her never ending smile; her willingness to allow me to play with some raspberry caramel; her willingness to teach us about butter creams and the lost art of hand dipping.
Erica and Brad for being a muse and inspiration on flavor development. It is because of you that when I'm in my "test" kitchen I push myself beyond what I begin the project believing, with the words "what would Erica do?"
Lastly, to my wife, for giving me the freedom and time to "go off and do my thing" with some truly amazing and talented people, I cherish each day you are in my life.
If I have left out anyone from this list, please consider it done only out of my forgetfulness and ignorance, it was not done for any other reason.
This isn't really doing anything to help relieve my jealousy over being unable to attend.
Alas after sampling all the sandwiches I couldn't bring myself to try it, but reports indicate that it, too, was delicious.
While of course as the event organizer it is RobertM's job to pat everyone on the back, I can tell it like it really was... and it was wonderful. Everyone at Stratford was kind and helpful (despite the incredible mess we made and the fact that almost half the participants had almost no confectionery experience at all!); the students we met were polite, helpful, and inquisitive; the facilities were perfect for our purposes; and they fed us amazingly well. I cannot thank Stratford enough for not just allowing us to use their space, but for truly hosting us in the best fashion.
everything looks exciting and fabulous! So wonderful to see all the happy and interested faces,all the sharing and love of our art!!
I was also quite impressed that several faculty from the culinary school were not only there, but participated in both our instruction and the preparation of the meals. Even the Dean of the culinary program was there, and served and bussed tables! I thought his willingness to help with the scut work set a great example for the students for a strong work ethic.

We are open Late March – early November, weather permitting.
The tall conical light was constructed in 1874 to mark a sandy headland on this lightly populated stretch of Lake Michigan's coast. Little Sauble remains virtually unchanged. Its materials were transported to the site by water. Built of red brick, which was originally whitewashed, the 107 foot tower retains its original third-order lens and the light is still in service. Little Sauble Point is now open for tours.
Cherry Point Farm is one of the oldest operating farms in Oceana County, Michigan; just a mile from the Lake Michigan shoreline and minutes from the Silver Lake sand dunes. The Bull family began operating the farm in 1949 and soon after opened a fruit market. Join us for a fish boil, a walk in the labyrinth and herb garden, a quick stop to pick up fresh produce for dinner and a cherry strudel or turnovers for breakfast.
The excitement of Silver Lake starts at Parrot's Landing, with recreational rentals for great family fun on the sand and water. Take on the Silver Lake Sand Dunes in a rugged Jeep Wrangler.

We have at least 500 items in our Showroom, and invite you into our factory/theater/showroom to see how it is all done.

Don't wait for snow. Luge in the Summer. Slide down the only wheel luge track in North America! Wheel luge is done on a specially designed track with the same sleds we use on the ice, but with wheels attached. The track is separate from the ice track, and is a great learning tool to introduce participants to the sport year-round! The design of the track, adaptive equipment and surrounding common areas also accommodate persons with disabilities. Despite being shorter and slower than our ice track, it still delivers a lot of fun, with the average run taking approximately 9 seconds while covering 300 feet of track.


The PDO is one of several versions of the Insite optical Dissolved Oxygen sensor - this version is designed to be used with the Insite Portable Meter (IPM).
Versions of this sensor have been successfully used for many years as part of the fixed site DO analyser system, and the older portable 3100. Additionally, we use the DO sensor in its' OEM form for integration into other products such as the MJK Oxix system.
The PDO sensor comes with a military spec connector for easy connection to the IPM. In addition it may be supplied with the custom-designed 'PortaCaddie' offering the user convenient cable management whilst offering a degree of protection to the sensor and to the hand-held logger.
Each of the 5 sensors for the IPM are interchangeable, so a single IPM can log readings from any sensor.
Like all the InsiteIG DO sensors, the PDO sensor incorporates optical fluorescence technology, solid state electronics and a unique side-mount element. The sensor is the only portable optical DO sensor that does not require replacement caps.
Nitric Oxide does not interfere with the PDO sensor.


Camping is generally the most popular bonding outdoor activities to spend with your friends and family. In fact, millions of people are spending most of their vacation going on camps. But, there is limitation to the comfort you feel on your camping, right? Although you have enjoyed the sight, you may not have slept well at night and haven't eaten a decent meal, too. Therefore, it is time that you change the old camping method to the new one in the form of glamping.
The meaning of glamping is just glamorous camping. Since it is glamorous, we are expecting a more comfortable camping experience. To those who think this is not possible, think again because it is possible. Because of the development in technology, camping gears that are upgraded can now be used to enjoy your camping experience.
To start your glamping experience, it is important that you already phaseout the old tent and replaced it with a more advance one. Thus, the tent you have before that was too small is now big and it can fit a lot of people, too. The new inventions of tents are actually the ones that can accommodate a lot and proper ventilation is provided without the fear of mosquitoes and other insects entering your tent. If before you don't have any options but to sleep on the uneven surface of the ground, today, you can already sleep like a baby. You can now have an inflatable mattress that you can use while you sleep. You don't even have to be bothered by your kids during your sleep because you can allow them to connect with their gadgets. Your kids can utilize their time by playing with their favorite online games or they can listen to the music if they want. To make this possible, you need to have solar panels. f you need to charger, bringing your power bank is recommended.
If before you need to learn how to start a fire, today, you can already make use of a fire starter kit or box. Also, if you are planning to learn more about cooking your steak perfectly without having it burned, you need a Dutch oven instead of using the traditional campfire cooking method. This product is indeed a masterpiece that will help you with your cooking needs. There are more camping gears invented in the past decade and you should check out all these gears to guarantee your glamping experience. Camping should not be about making your life difficult. Checking any website that sells camping gears is always recommended. If you need help, asking from your fellow campers will give you more info.

Like many Pitney Bowes employees, alumni, and retirees, I was shocked and saddened by the sudden death of Ken Petersen, who passed away suddenly at the age of 59. we also know that his positive legacy will remain and continue to grow!
I recently read Bad Blood by John Carreyrou, the reporter who broke the story of the massive fraud that brought down Theranos, the high-flying Silicon Valley company founded by Elizabeth Holmes. Bad Blood added more context to the story.
Over the years, I have often wondered why I undertook and stayed with a process that took almost 10 years to get the film From the Rough produced and released into theaters.
I am confident in its future, but also recognize the immensely difficult odds its faces. I look forward to celebrating the company's 100th anniversary in 2020 with the rest of the Pitney Bowes family.


Yet again it's time for trick or treaters, and for us, we have an annual family tradition to make spooky chili on Halloween night – spooky, but good! . We live in a suburban Atlanta neighborhood and Halloween is actually one of the best times of year for our community to come together. Our little street will be hosting a fun party with many of our neighbors making different types of chili – and it really is very fun. We always have a toppings bar with various options such as cheese, avocado, chopped cilantro, smoky olive oil and more – and people just love the fun of this – perhaps your neighborhood could too?
The forecast will be chilly (can't help myself…) so a warm bowl of chili will hit the spot!
This fall I have been making chili for cooking classes and received some rave reviews (not bad for an Irish lass whose only been to Mexico once!) So, here's my best shot… Hope you enjoy!
To make the base broil the chili's on a grill turning until they are charred on all sides. Place them in a zip lock bag for about 10 minutes to sweat until the skins are easy to remove. Using plastic gloves or a zip lock bag turned inside out remove the stem and the seeds (leaving a few seeds will be good).
In a large blender combine the prepared chilies, toasted coriander, mustard seeds, tomatoes, garlic, tomato paste, coco powder, salt and pepper.
Add olive oil to a large saucepan and add the onions and beef stirring together until browned.
Pour over the chili base, stock and beer. Season with a little salt and pepper, cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hour.
Stir in the chili beans and simmer uncovered for another 30 minutes.
To serve top with freshly chopped cilantro, avocado and a drizzle of Olive Oil.
Halloween was always one of my favorite times of the year growing up in Ireland, and it should come as no surprise that my best memories are related to home baking and fun traditions shared around the dinner table. My mother would always hide hidden charms in our favorite Halloween baked goods as a tradition, and amongst those treats she always included a wee home made BarmBrack loaf and an apple tart.
Barmbrack is a traditional warm and spicy fruit loaf that is absolutely delicious hot from the oven with loads of creamy Irish butter – and of course, apple tart is an apple pie here in America! So now you know!
So, here is it to share – my family recipe that's enjoyed in Ireland this time of year.
Butter a 9' round cake pan and set aside.
Measure and combine all the dry ingredients in a large bowl including the flour, spices, salt brown sugar, dry active yeast and the dried fruits and candied peel.
Combine all the wet ingredients in electric bread mixer including the warm milk, melted butter and egg. Slowly add the dry ingredients 1 cup at a time and mix to combine.
Transfer the sticky dough into the prepared pan and pat the dough in place. Cover with a clean dish towel and set aside in a warm place for about an hour for the dough to rise.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and then bake for about 30 minutes (to test the bread insert a skewer in the center and should come away clean).
Dissolve the sugar in boiling water to make the glaze and brush over the bread. Return the bread to the oven for a further few minutes until the loaf is glistening.
Transfer to a rack to cool and serve with Irish creamery butter.
I must admit I've always been a sucker for a good Key Lime Pie! Our son surprised us and came home from college yesterday, and it was so good to see him. As ever, he brought a few of his college friends with him, and so, I decided to bake a Key Lime Pie for us to share the joy – and why not?!
Key Limes are harvested in Florida from June to September and I wanted to make one last pie as a kitchen farewell to the summer season. Key Limes are higher in acidity and have a stronger Aroma than Persian Limes. They are also smaller, harder work to grow, harvest and juice, but worth it, right? Just like the name suggests, Key Limes were grown commercially in Southern Florida and the Florida Keys until the 1926 hurricane wiped out the citrus groves. Then the growers replaced the groves with more Persian Limes trees as they were easier to grow but Key Limes are said to be making more of a come back as consumer demand grows for a zestier punch. I used British style Digestive cookies (found in the international section of American supermarkets) and they are so much more superior to Graham Crackers! Give them a go…. you wont be disappointed!
Enjoy the end of the season harvest as we begin the new!
Melt the butter and stir in to the crushed graham crackers and sugar.
Transfer the cookie crumb mixture in to the base of a 9 inch pie plate using your fingers to pat down to make a crust, shaping it up the edges of the dish.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes and allow cooling.
To make the filling whisk the egg yolks and lime zest together in an electric mixer until it begins to thicken slightly. Whisk in the sweetened condensed milk beating for 3-4 minutes and then whisk in the lime juice until everything is smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour mixture in to pie crust and bake for 15 minutes.
Remove the pie from the oven and cool and then store in the refrigerator until ready to eat.
To serve whip the heavy whipping cream and sugar and spoon or pipe on the pie.

The institutional order of organizing in working life is very different in Scandinavia and China. When Scandinavian and Chinese managers and employees meet in concrete work relations they not only work together on a product they also become engaged in institutional work dealing with the inconsistencies between the institutional orders of organizing. This in turn may affect the institutional orders by maintaining or transforming them. We don't know what is going to happen as it depends on the awareness, skill and reflexivity of Scandinavian and Chinese institutional actors in the sense that these actors are able to work with institutionally defined orders.

League to consider loyalty fund to halt player drain
June 25, 2002 — 10.00am
The establishment of a loyalty fund to discourage elite players from leaving the National Rugby League will be discussed at Thursday's partnership committee meeting.
The news comes amid fears that as many as a third of the Queensland players may be making their Origin farewells in tomorrow night's series decider.
While the superannuation-type scheme would be unlikely to prevent veterans Allan Langer, Andrew Gee and Darren Smith retiring, the Queensland Rugby League yesterday implored the NRL to help ensure the likes of Lote Tuqiri, Chris McKenna and Petero Civoniceva were not lost to the game.
NRL chief executive David Gallop last night revealed the issue would be on the agenda at the next meeting of Australian Rugby League and News Ltd directors on Thursday, despite winning little support when it was raised with club bosses earlier this month.
"As a matter of course, an important issue like this is always on the policy agenda," said Gallop, who has been working with his ARL counterpart, Geoff Carr, in a bid to stem the drain of players to rugby union and Britain.
As always, money is the biggest stumbling block, but a meeting of the QRL board yesterday called on the NRL partnership committee to find a way around the problem.
One suggestion is placing payments for representative matches into a fund that the players could only access when they retired, provided they had stayed loyal to league.
Players currently receive $5000 for each State of Origin or Test match they play. It is proposed that the figure be doubled to equal the payments offered by the Australian Rugby Union for international fixtures.
With tickets sales for Origin III last night reported to have passed the 73,000 mark, such an increase would still represent only a small portion of the revenue generated from the match.
News of the proposal coincided with calls yesterday by NSW Origin coach Phil Gould for the representative calendar to be extended.
"More international competition only gives the players something to aspire to, whereas other codes have a lot of that," Gould said yesterday.
"I'd like to see a three-Test series every year against New Zealand. I think it's a way to get them to improve, and I'd like to see Britain out here more regularly.
"But with the Kangaroo tour back, everything's starting to settle down again now so the players have really got something to look forward to now."
The Australian team to play Great Britain on July 12 at the Sydney Football Stadium will be named next week. A number of positions are wide open following injuries to some leading players and the defection of Nathan Blacklock to rugby union.
But Gould said he would not use the lure of Test jerseys as extra motivation for the Blues squad.
"That would be a hell of a thing to do to play in that Test match against Great Britain here in Australia because it's a time-honoured tradition and one that we welcome back," Gould said.
"But this game will be won by the best team performance. The winning team and the individuals will get recognition. They know what's at stake. I don't need to remind them of the value of a green-and-gold jersey."
Blues skipper Andrew Johns is also involved in a more personal battle with his Maroons opposite, Gorden Tallis, for the Australian captaincy but he again ducked the issue yesterday.
"I don't think we've played the Pommies out here for 10 years so it's been a big goal of mine to play them on home soil and whether I'm captain or not, I'll cross that bridge then," Johns said yesterday.
"But we've got a big game on Wednesday night and the Origin doesn't need any more spice, although that probably just adds to it because everyone realises how important it is that they give their best shot."
The Blues trained yesterday at E.S.Marks Field and reported no injury concerns as they look to finalise their preparations today at the Olympic stadium.
Queensland will also have a run at Homebush Bay after their arrival from Brisbane later today.
As expected, Bill Harrigan was yesterday appointed to referee his ninth consecutive Origin after a unanimous decision by the NSW Rugby League and the QRL.
Despite his protests after Origin II about Harrigan's performance, Gould does not intend to arrange a meeting with the referee.

Check out the mana base. They have alot of articles for 20-40$ commanders. A few I remember were Selenia, Dark Angel , Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest , and Edric, Spymaster of Trest . As for a suggestion of my own Alesha, Who Smiles at Death can be relatively cheap, and if you want annoying make it a "everybody discard/sacrifice" deck with things like Miasmic Mummy and Fleshbag Marauder types.
I also feel that the card of Selenia, Dark Angel is very underpowered and fails to properly capture her importance to the story, so I would like to see a new card of her in a future supplemental set.
Arcaneful on Tymna, Without a Partner?
I was actually thinking maybe this direction. It sounds really fun, and maybe I could go Selenia, Dark Angel.
I have no real reason to DISLIKE him, I just... I don't know maybe the art haha. Honestly I just never have liked him. Maybe it's because I've played against him in the past and got crushed. I also was watching MTG Muddstah's videos and a guy named Mat played a really cool looking Tymna the Weaver only deck. I thought it was a fun idea to just use a partner without another one.
I love this type of deck, ( I could never play it considering my playgroup runs Melek, Izzet Paragon and Vial Smasher the Fierce ) However I would recommend Selenia, Dark Angel, she can be used as two things: A way to lose as much life as you want, by responding to the 2 life trigger by using the 2 life trigger. Or she is just a beefy 3/3 unkillable thing that can only be killed via split second.


In seniors who have loss of memory or impaired cognitive function, the inherent dread of Alzheimer's disease runs rampant. However, recent research suggests at least some of that concern might be unfounded and that these problems may be the consequences of a much more treatable affliction.
According to a report published in a Canadian medical journal, the symptoms that actually could be the results of untreated hearing loss are sometimes mistaken as the product of Alzheimer's.
In the Canadian study, researchers looked for links to brain conditions by closely evaluating participants functional capabilities pertaining to memory and thought. 56 percent of people examined for mental impairment had minor to severe hearing loss. Astonishingly, only about 20 percent of those individuals reported using a hearing aid.
These findings are supported by patients who think they may have symptoms of Alzheimer's according to a clinical neuropsychologist who was one of the authors of the study. In many instances, the reason behind that patient's visit to the doctor was due to their shortened attention span or a failure to remember things their partner told them and in many cases, it was the patient's loved one who recommended an appointment with a doctor.
While hearing loss may not be the first thing an aging adult thinks of when dealing with potential mental decline, it's easy to understand how someone can confuse it with Alzheimer's.
Imagine a situation where your best friend asks you for a favor. As an example, they have an upcoming trip and need a ride to the airport. What if you didn't clearly hear them ask? Would you ask them to repeat themselves? Is there any way you would recognize that you were expected to drive them if you didn't hear them the second time?
It's that kind of thinking that leads hearing professionals to believe some people could be diagnosing themselves inaccurately with Alzheimer's. But it may actually be a hearing issue that's progressive and ongoing. Put simply, you can't remember something that you don't hear in the first place.
It's not surprising that people of an advanced age are experiencing these problems given the correlation between aging and the likelihood of having hearing loss. The National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) estimates that only 2 percent of adults aged 45 to 54 have debilitating loss of hearing. Meanwhile, that number rises considerably for older age brackets, coming in at 8.5 percent for 55- to 64-year-olds; 25 percent for 65- to 74-year-olds; and 50 percent for those 75-years or older.
Even though it's true that gradual loss of hearing is a normal trait of aging, people often just tolerate it because they believe it's a part of life. In fact, it takes about 10 years on average for someone to seek treatment for hearing loss. Worse, less than 25 percent of people who need hearing aids will ultimately buy them.
Do I have issues comprehending words if there is a lot of background noise?
Science has definitely found a link between loss of hearing and Alzheimer's, however they're not the same. A Johns Hopkins study followed 639 individuals who reported no mental impairment over a 12 to 18 year period observing their progress and aging. The research found that the worse the loss of hearing at the beginning of the study, the more likely the person was to develop symptoms of dementia which is a term that refers to impaired thought and memory.
Getting a hearing evaluating is one way you can prevent any misunderstandings between Alzheimer's and loss of hearing. This should be a part of your regular annual physical especially if you are over 65.
If you think you could be confusing hearing loss with Alzheimer's, we can help you with a full hearing evaluation. Make an appointment for a hearing exam right away.
