Airbus has underestimated Boeing - claim

Airbus has underestimated Boeing, according to EADS co-head Tom Enders.

Enders told a press briefing on Tuesday (11 July) that it was important for the new Airbus A350 - which is currently being redesigned - to be a superior aircraft to its competitor model, the Boeing 787.

Enders also said that the priority for EADS is to solve problems at Airbus. The EADS co-head said that Airbus is not under time pressure and that the timing of a decision on the design of the A350 is not tied to the Farnborough Air Show in the UK, Reuters reported.

Web-savvy IT Consultancy Banks Back-to-back PROFIT 100 Recognition

If ranking 44th on the PROFIT 100 in 2006 was a sign that Optrics Engineering was a rising force on the Canadian entrepreneurial scene, then advancing to 39th in 2007 signals the Edmonton-based corporation is on track to connect a burgeoning global market of IT administrators and engineers with only the very best vendors of network management and security hardware, software and services.

Edmonton, AB (PRWEB) June 6, 2007 — If ranking 44th on the PROFIT 100 in 2006 was a sign that Optrics Engineering was a rising force on the Canadian entrepreneurial scene, then advancing to 39th in 2007 signals the Edmonton-based corporation is on track to connect a burgeoning global market of IT administrators and engineers with only the very best vendors of network management and security hardware, software and services.



“Finding ourselves a PROFIT 100 company in 2006 was a pleasant surprise but certainly a consequence rather than a goal,” says Bording Ostergaard P.Eng. CEO, “and the result of focused effort to be a leading pioneer in online IT sales and consulting. Our success has come as much from simply trying to keep up with all the companies that have chosen to reach out to us for our expertise in addition to our ability to deliver true leading-edge IT solutions.”



Ranking Canadas Fastest-Growing Companies by five-year revenue growth, the PROFIT 100 profiles the countrys most successful growth companies. Published in the June issue of PROFIT and online at PROFITguide.com, the PROFIT 100 is Canadas largest annual celebration of entrepreneurial achievement.



“Internet marketing expertise in addition to technical expertise is what sets Optrics apart,” says Ostergaard. “You can have the best products and services in the world but if your clients cant find you, nothing ever leaves the shelf. On the other hand, if you are successful at being found but dont understand what it is you are selling, especially in the high-tech area, customers will not have the necessary confidence to choose you as their provider. Optrics success is due to its strength in both of these key areas.”



According to Ian Portsmouth, editor, “Profit 100 companies are the new heroes of Canadian business, creating jobs at home and products used around the world. Theyve accomplished this by building great employee teams, exploiting export markets and rapidly responding to customers fast-changing needs.”



About Optrics Engineering:

Among the many internationally known organizations that have relied on Optrics for technology solutions are NASA, Microsoft, Best Buy, US Army, Air Force and Navy, DND, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Mercedes-Benz.

Planes - Trains and Auto-Insurance (Well Solicitors Insurance Actually)

Planes, trains and lawyers?

Well let’s start with the planes as on 1 October in 1881 the American Engineer and aviation pioneer William Edward Boeing was born in Detroit, Michigan. The name Boeing remains one of the most recognizable throughout the aviation world even now over half a century since his death.

So what about the trains then? And why is October 1 such an important date in the railway world? This time we have to go back to just October 1st 1964 which is when the world’s first high speed railway, the Tokaido Shinkansen (or the Japanese Bullet train), opened between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka. By it’s 40th anniversary in 2004 over 4.16 billion passengers had traveled on the Tokaido route and it today remains the world’s most heavily traveled railway route.

So that brings us onto modern day living and the significance of the date of October 1st on lawyers and solicitors.

Well for UK solicitors and legal professionals the date may not have the same global impact as Boeing or the Bullet Train but October 1st still remains a significant date due to changes in the year 2000 when the Law Society opened the way for Solicitors Professional Indemnity Insurance to be sold via the Commercial Insurance market when the Solicitor Indemnity Fund (SIF) ended.
