A Day to Remember

Hello:

Terri had the opportunity to hear Mayor Rudolph Giuliani speak in Orange County last week. In his discussion of 9/11, he said that New York had prepared for the disasters they knew about such as hurricanes and epidemics, and that helped them prepare for the disaster they could not have ever expected. We are thankful that New York, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania, were as prepared as they could have been on this fateful day five years ago.

Commodity prices appear to be softening in response to the weakness in the housing market. OPEC announced today that they will keep their production quotas stable.

Another of our more popular talks is: Attracting and Retaining Talented Employees with Effective Retirement Benefits. Please let us know if your board and/or staff would like to hear this presentation.
