The first step in our journey today here in Raleigh, NC is moving to the Syngenta offices where they conduct their research and development.
Ready For The Syngenta Media Day
Hello from Raleigh, NC where we’re about to kick off the Syngenta Media Day. To get things started I interviewed Gardner Hatch, Gibbs & Soell, to find out why we’re here.
Testing Mobile Broadband
I’m in the St. Louis airport on my way to Raleigh, NC and got to test my new Sprint Mobile Broadband card in my computer. According to the test I got 768K download speed and 100k upload speed. Not bad and much better than dialup!
Barbecuing A Healthier Cooking Method
A home economist with Manitoba Pork Council is recommending barbecuing as one of the healthier low fat ways of cooking. With the arrival of the warmer summer temperatures outdoor barbecuing peaks in popularity.
Brisket Sub From Quiznos
According to meatingplace.com, Quiznos is coming out with another beef sub. At last week’s Cattle Industry Summer Conference the media (like Ken Rahjes here, KRVN) were treated to Quiznos beef subs. They were awesome.
Fresh Glue is Sticky
I really wish more advertising and public relations agencies working with agricultural clients had a blog. I haven’t seen much yet. That’s why I got excited about Fresh Glue. One of the words I hear more and more marketing people using lately is “sticky.” Well Fresh Glue is kind of sticky.
Get Your Waygu From Down Under
Pro golfer Greg Norman thinks beef is what’s for dinner. The only problem is he’s Australian and importing it into the United States. It looks like he’s got 2 flavors, “Signature Waygu” and “Premium.” It’s all targeted to upscale restaurants and they point out that, “This range is produced by AAco as a fully DNA trackable farm-to-plate standard. It’s your guarantee of the highest, most consistent quality beef, grain-fed and aged to perfection.”
Working On A New Connection Point
I have just been talked into agreed to chair the 2007 Agri-Marketing Conference Trade Show committee. We want to make it even more of a Connection Point for you.
Farmers Supply Now Online
Farmers Supply company just announced a new website. You’ll find an online store of all things John Deere. You had better like music with your web pages too since you’ll get a lot of it each time you click on a different page or visit the homepage.
Brave Agri-Golfers
I know this is a small picture but that’s so it’s not easy to see how absolutely nasty/sweaty we are after playing 18 holes of golf in 100 degree weather. This was from our goodbye to Steve Taylor golf game at Eagle Knoll yesterday.
