Blackwater Worldwide is the subject of yet another report, this time regarding the security company's claims of small Business status. Like companies across the land, Blackwater sought to be designated as a small Business to win contracts more easily from the State Department or other agencies. But is it also possible that government procurement officials wanted to apply the designation to Blackwater to make it easier to award the contracts? Don't laugh. It happens all the time. You contracting folks -- in and out of the government -- know well that the designation of a company can change everything when it comes to Awards. Apply the correct code from the North American Industry Classification System, and a drawn out procurement can suddenly become a snap. (Note to NAICS gurus: feel free to send cards and letters; I want to know more.) Anyway, the report by the Small Business Administration's ... Source: www.moreover.com --- 61 days ago

to you, and you, and you, and you, and you!" I've been on the NW board for about 3-4 years now, and I have enjoyed my stay here immensely. The postings were all interesting and the responses were mostly informative and occasionally entertaining. Whenever I posted a question, you were all unfailingly cordial and very knowledgeable. Thanks to your generosity, I learned about making easy connections at Tokyo Narita, using the showers before continuing onward into Asia, the duty free shopping at HKG, getting from HKG into town on the Airport Train, arriving late at night into SIN, etc. I also thank all of you for the information about Business class Awards from NRT down to BKK, SIN, and even HKG. When the acquisition of NW was announced, I checked out Delta's frequent flyer program. It seemed and still seems harsh and restrictive. My choice was to exhaust my NW holdings or to simply go with the flow and permit my holdings to be absorbed into the Delta program. As it happens, I decided to liquidate the last of my NW frequent flyer miles before the merger. Using the website and also the telephone service (with an American employee answering the phone), I've been able to book a domestic ticket to visit a sister not seen in 5 years and also an intra-Asia Business class ticket for spring vacation. Not having any miles remaining to my account, fewer than 150 miles actually, I imagine that I won't be here much on this board in the future. Now I mu ...

An innovative Kansas interchange project unique for both its design and its partnership arrangement has been named a national award finalist. And that's potentially good news for students. The I-35/87th Street/U.S. 69 interchange in Johnson County this month was named one of 10 national finalists for America's Transportation Award. The award is cosponsored by AAA, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). The project, which was opened to traffic in October 2006, was named one of 23 regional winners in July. Kansas and the other nine states will now compete for the Grand National Prize – selected by a panel of community, Business and transportation leaders — and the People's Choice Award, which will be decided by popular online vote. The Awards come with grants that, in Kansas, will further educational opportunities for students in engineering, math, science and technology. The $70 million interchange is located on one of the most heavily traveled sections of highway in Kansas and is one of the first single point urban interchanges (SPUI) constructed in the state. The new design, which replaced a traditional diamond-shaped interchange built in the 1960s, includes only a single traffic signal, resulting in fewer delays, increased capacity and enhanced safety. Also unique is the partnership arrangement between the Kansas Department of Transportation and the citi ...

John Kieswetter, the Cincinnati Enquirer 's TV/Radio/Media reporter heralded the arrival of one of Cincinnati's favorite TV personalities, comedian and actor Tim Reid, with a nice post to his blog last Thursday, touching on Reid's historic career in comedy, and detailing his recent itinerary, which brought him back to the city he once inhabited as radio DJ Venus Flytrap on the late 70's sitcom WKRP in Cincinnati . According to Keiswetter, Reid was scheduled to host the local Emmy Awards dinner and to throw out the first pitch at the Reds-Astros game. In his post Kieswetter remarks: "I bet he's surprised at how often he's recognized here, and how fondly so many of us remember 'WKRP.'" But while most people recognize Reid from his hit TV show, fewer remember his earlier work in the pioneering stand-up act "Tim and Tom" with comedian Tom Dreesen—the first interracial comedy team in the history of show Business. Now with Reid's forthcoming book, Tim and Tom: An American Comedy in Black and White , co-authored with Dreesen and Ron Rappaport, the fascinating story of this ground-breaking comedic duo is revealed—from their beginnings in the nightclubs of Chicago to to their acrimonious breakup after 5 hard years on the road. The book is set to publish this September and Dreesen and Reid are scheduled to make quite a few appearances in support of the book's release. Navigate to the Tim and Tom book page to find out more about the book or to pl ...
