Book Description
Two steamboats were each making their weekly trips to Tuscaloosa and back. Parents and friends came and went. The least expression of a need, to the folks at home brought the wished for articles. Nothing was too good for the boys at the front and fish and oysters were abundant in season. The latter were in those days only considered eatable in the R. months, as the saying was: i.e., during the months whose names contained the letter R. So that from May to August, the poor things could enjoy life without the fear of man. Ice was not then available to preserve them during the summer months. At Fort Gaines, Lt. Cribbs was given charge of the Ordnance Department. In the early spring, the company received as recruits from Tuscaloosa many good men. Feb. 24, 1862 there arrived with Lt. Tarrant, James T. Searcy, John Chancellor, James Manly, Ed. King, Jno. Molette, T. Alex Dearing and ten or twelve others, E. R. Prince, Jas. F. Prince. It is from a personal diary kept by James T. Searcy that much of this first and second year’s experience of the command has been culled and all of the dates. On the trip down the boat “scraped the woods” considerably, butted out one tree by the roots, butted another that staggered the boat without injuring the tree, but left about twenty feet of the guards in the water as the tree’s trophy in the encounter. Such incidents were in those days quite common in steamboat travel in low water.

Pathogen and Microbial Contamination Management in Micropropagation
Author: Alan C. Cassells
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401589518
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
This book is based mainly on invited and offered papers presented at the Second International Symposium on Bacterial and Bacteria-like Contaminants of Plant Tissue Cultures held at University College, Cork, Ireland in September 1996, with additional invited papers. The First International Symposium on Bacterial and Bacteria-like Contaminants of Plant Tissue Cultures was held at the same venue in 1987 and was published as Acta Horticulturae volume 225, 1988. In the intervening years there have been considerable advances in both plant disease diagnostics and in the development of structured approaches to the management of disease and microbial contamination in micropropagation. These approaches have centred on attempts to separate, spatially, the problems of disease transmission and laboratory contamination. Disease-control is best achieved by establishing pathogen-free cultures while laboratory contamination is based on subsequent good working practice. Control of losses due to pathogens and microbial contamination in vitro addresses, arguably, the most importance causes of losses in the industry; nevertheless, losses at and post establishment can also be considerable due to poor quality microplants or micro-shoots. In this symposium, a holistic approach to pathogen and microbial contamination control is evident with the recognition that micropropagators must address pathogen and microbial contamination in vitro, and diseases and microplant failure at establishment. There is increasing interest in establishing beneficial bacterial and mycorrhizal association with microplants in vitro and in vivo.

How To Become A Successful Freight Broker

Book Description
How to Become A Successful Freight Broker: Easy To Follow Step By Step Training Guide With the rise and success of companies like Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, Wal-Mart and many others, the global freight market has been seeing a growth like never before especially in last few years. More and more companies are buying and selling products across the border. It is the new global economy of the 21st century. Not to mention due the rise of Amazon FBA (Fulfilled by Amazon) business, there are little over 300,000 new businesses opened up just in last 3 years to supply products to Amazon. These new businesses only buy products from various Asian countries and ship them to Amazon warehouses in the western world. Amazon then sell these products on the seller's behalf, which is essentially what Amazon FBA business model is. Due to the huge popularity of this new business, suddenly now another 300,000 new customers are looking to hire a Freight broker to handle their shipments and to make sure their products get routed to the proper Amazon warehouses. My name is George A. Stewart, I am 43 years old, I worked 12 years as a store manager for Burger King, a truly dead end job. Just like most jobs in the market today I used to put in plenty of hours that unfortunately, did not translate into money. My turning point was the day I met a certain customer in my restaurant who seemed to be doing very well despite the hard economic times the whole country was going through. After a little chitchat, I found out he was a freight broker and that he was earning a decent living while working a few hours. At that point I did not know anything about freight brokerage or that a profession like that even existed. I therefore decided to do some research about it and the more I learned the more my interest grew and within a matter of weeks I was completely hooked up. Before I knew it, I took time off work to begin my training in freight brokerage. After my training, I decided to quit my job at burger king and took up a job as a freight agent working under an established freight broker. My job included looking for new clients, taking orders and matching shippers with carriers. In one year or so I felt that I had enough experience and contacts to start my own firm. I then applied for the required licenses at FMCSA and started small. Starting my own firm was definitely not easy but I found it much better than working at Burger King. My first client was a contact I had made from working as a freight agent. After a lot of hard work I finally started getting more clients, and in 6 months I could finally relax because my business had finally taken off. I was earning around $120,000 every year, which, I must confess, was really good for starters. After Reading This Guide You Will Learn: What is a Freight Broker/ Logistics Broker What is a Freight Brokerage Business How does the industry work How to Get Started in This Business What is a life cycle of a load Requirements to become a Freight Broker How to write a Business Plan How to set up your Freight Brokerage Business How to choose the Right Target Market How to pick the Right Carrier What Freight Brokerage Software to use How much Money you can make How to Rate any Freight How to Build a Customer and Carrier base How to Sell a Freight to a Carrier All types of legal matters And more "This is truly a complete guidebook for anyone looking to get started in freight brokerage business. I am in the process of getting my business setup, after working as a dispatch in a trucking company, I knew the demand was growing for a freight brokerage. Thanks to George's book, I was motivated to get started, wish I did it sooner." - R. Segrest
