			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We just re-launched our <a href="http://www.veteranstodayforum.com/">Veterans Today Forum</a>.</p>
<p>Previously, it was a module within our <a href="http://www.veteranstoday.com" target="_blank">VeteransToday.com</a> site.  However, once we made the switch from a PHP Nuke platform to a WordPress platform for VeteransToday.com, a strategic decision was made to make the Forum it&#8217;s own&#8217;s site within the network and use the same PHPbb platform that supports Forum postings.</p>
<p>Seperating the data was no easy task.  Yet we hope worth it.</p>
<p>This move makes our updates easier and less complex.  Moreover, it&#8217;s our hope is that those users who want a Forum can use it exclusively as a Forum and not be bombarded with other stuff.</p>

<p><strong>iGPS Joins HireVeterans.com</strong></p>
<p><em>by Marcy Bulstrom</em></p>
<p>Intelligent Global Pooling Systems (iGPS Company LLC) is revolutionizing the world&#8217;s supply chain by providing manufacturers, suppliers and shippers of unitized loads with the world&#8217;s first RFID-tagged all-plastic pallet pool. Manufactured to exacting standards, iGPS&#8217;s pallets are edge rackable, lightweight, extremely durable, consistent in size, hygienic, and – thanks to embedded RFID tags – fully traceable.</p>
<p>Headquartered in Orlando, Florida with operations in Dallas, Texas, New York and Bentonville, AR, iGPS is now hiring to fill the needs of the new demand created by its forward thinking innovative products. To meet the hiring challenges, iGPS has partnered with <a href="http://www.hireveterans.com/view.php?company_id=1855">HireVeterans.com</a>, an industry leading job board for U.S. Veterans.</p>
<p><strong>What does iGPS offer?</strong></p>
<p>iGPS is leading a paradigm shift in the pallet-rental business from wood to plastic pallets with radio frequency identification (RFID) tracking capabilities. As the world&#8217;s first and only large-scale supplier of an all-plastic RFID-tagged pallet pool, iGPS&#8217;s business model provides manufacturers and retailers with compelling advantages:</p>
<p><strong>What are the advantages of iGPS&#8217;s pallet vs. wood?</strong></p>
<p>iGPS&#8217;s plastic pallets are far superior to the best wood alternatives.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Weight.</strong>  Weighing in at less than 50 lbs, iGPS pallets are 30% lighter than the typical multi-use wood pallet. This 25-pound weight savings per-pallet makes our pallets easier to handle and saves up to a total of 540 to 15,390 lbs per truckload, which translates into tremendous fuel and transport savings.   </li>
<li><strong>Durability.</strong>  iGPS pallets are the only in the world that weigh less than 50 lbs, meet both GMA and ISO 8611-3 requirements, and easily hold 2,800 lbs (edge rackable). Already in use at Fortune 100 companies nationwide, our pallets have passed every test and challenge they have been subjected to and continue to demonstrate durability everyday in the supply chain.</li>
<li><strong>Contents protection.</strong>  Our pallets feature 100% top-deck coverage, providing greater rigidity and contents protection than the typical multi-use wood pallet, which has, at most, 87% top deck coverage.</li>
<li>Uniform size, shape and weight.  Unlike wood pallets, our pallets are consistent in appearance and performance. With no broken boards or protruding nails, iGPS pallets work superbly in automated environments.</li>
<li><strong>Hygiene.</strong>  Unlike wood pallets, which readily absorb liquids and can provide a breeding ground for bacteria, iGPS pallets are impervious to liquids and do not present a health risk. They are cleaned with simple detergent and water. In addition, iGPS pallets do not need to undergo heat treatment (which can result in mildew) or fumigation with methyl bromide.</li>
<li><strong>Fire Safety.</strong>  Our pallets have undergone extensive testing and have received UL 2335 and FM Approvals 4996 certification. This certification means that the fire performance of iGPS pallets is equal or superior to wood, and that they are fully compliant with NFPA 13 fire sprinkler standards.</li>
<li><strong>RFID.</strong>  Each iGPS pallet is has four identical RFID tags embedded in its frame, enabling shipment tracking in real time.</li>
<li><strong>Environmentally Responsible.</strong>  iGPS’s business model has been created with sustainability as a cornerstone. Our pallets are 100% recyclable. Should a pallet become damaged, it will be ground and remolded into a new pallet, as permitted by Underwriters Laboratories, making its lifespan indefinite.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.hireveterans.com/view.php?company_id=1855"><img title="igpsapply_400" height="292" alt="igpsapply_400" hspace="15" src="http://www.veteranstoday.com/story_images/igpsapply_400.jpg" width="400" align="right" vspace="10" border="1" /></a>PALLET POOLING</strong></p>
<p>iGPS offers businesses the ability to rent the exact number of pallets they need, rather than having to stock for peak seasons and keeping idle pallets in storage. Companies can easily upgrade to iGPS&#8217;s system and avoid the expense of purchasing and maintaining a pallet inventory.</p>
<p><strong>Renting Versus Owning</strong><br />By renting plastic pallets from iGPS&#8217;s shared pool, businesses can focus their capital expenditures and day-to-day supply-chain operations on their core business and eliminate the expensive distraction of owning and maintaining an inventory of pallets. Importantly, companies that have been using wood pallets – which are difficult to RFID-tag and trace – can readily upgrade to iGPS&#8217;s system and begin tracking shipments in real time.</p>
<p><strong>How Pallet Pooling Works</strong><br />Under a pooled system, manufacturers, distributors and retailers rent – rather than own – their pallets; the pallets are owned by iGPS. The pooled pallet system works as follows:</p>
<p>    * The manufacturer notifies iGPS of a required shipment.<br />    * iGPS issues ready-for-use plastic pallets to the manufacturing facility in truckload quantities.<br />    * The manufacturer palletizes their product onto the platform and ships it down the distributor network.<br />    * Distributors receive the pallets and either store the products in warehouses or use the pallets to move products to the retailer.<br />    * Once the pallets have been emptied at a retail outlet, the distributor relocates the pallets to their distribution centers.<br />    * Pallets are accumulated at the distribution center and the distributor returns the pallets to iGPS.<br />    * iGPS inspects the pallets and prepares the pallets for reissue. </p>
<p>If you would like to join a forward thinking company that is embracing the future, then check out the jobs offered by iGPS and apply to them now! </p>

<div align="left"><strong>Coler &amp; Colantonio, Inc. fosters hiring our Nations’ Veterans as a way to say “thank you” for proudly serving in the U.S. military.</strong></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size:85%;">by Holly McBain</span></em></div>
<div align="left">Norwell, MA February 5, 2008 – Since 1986, Coler &amp; Colantonio has always been impressed with the skills and abilities learned by Veterans while on active duty. In fact, the first individual invited to join the two founders as a Partner and Principal of Coler &amp; Colantonio in 2001 was Kenneth H. Stanley Partner/Vice President, Energy Infrastructure Market Sector.</p>
<p>Ken Stanley served his four year tour of duty from 1982 to 1986 as an Air Traffic Controller, Combat Control Team Operator and Special Forces Team Member. The life skills of leadership, honor and duty that Ken learned during his military service are considered his greatest assets by Coler &amp; Colantonio, Inc. His insight and talents are an invaluable part of the company’s ideology of “Turning Vision into Reality”.</p>
<p>Coler &amp; Colantonio, Inc. is a privately held corporation whose purpose is to “build a company that our employees take pride in, professionals seek to join, clients pursue and our families are proud of.”</p></div>
<div align="left"><span style="font-size:0;"><br /></span>Hiring from the military enables the firm to secure individuals of integrity, one of their corporate core values. Many individuals from the military have gained specific technical skills such as drafting and surveying which gives them a firm foundation for the kind of work Coler &amp; Colantonio does. These characteristics and skills combine well with the Coler &amp; Colantonio, Inc. work environment. By hiring persons with the right skills and characteristics and then supporting them through continuing education and professional development, Coler &amp; Colantonio, Inc. has seen a number of their employees with prior military experience create long and successful careers.</div>

More and more businesses today are actively choosing war veterans over other candidates and it makes sense: War Veterans are a smart choice in today&#8217;s competitive job market because they have the character, skills and training to meet the toughest challenges employers face.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Specifically in the construction market veterans are physically honed and are skilled problem-solvers. They also have the technical skills needed to get the job done and work efficiently within a team and understand and respect the importance of following technical and safety procedures.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Cianbro Corporation is one of the East Coast’s largest civil and heavy industrial construction companies. Cianbro is employee-owned and recognized nationally for its safety and health programs. Headquartered in Pittsfield, Maine, Cianbro serves the eastern seaboard from offices in Baltimore, Maryland; Bloomfield, Connecticut; and Portland, Maine.

<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Cianbro president, Pete Vigue says, “Teamwork, commitment, and personal sacrifice are what differentiate our people and this company from our competitors. It is what allows Cianbro to do some pretty extraordinary things in the construction and construction services industries.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Our team puts its can-do spirit to work every day &#8212; coming up with innovative and creative solutions for our customers&#8217; needs &#8212; on a wide variety of construction, fabrication and coating, and data services projects.”</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Build Your Future With Cianbro: The Constructor of Choice</span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Winner of the 2005 ABC Contractor of the Year Award and the 2005 ABC National Excellence in Construction Award, Cianbro is one of the East Coast&#8217;s largest construction and construction services companies. From massive bridges, power plants, and industrial mills, to high-tech facilities for microchips, surgery, and biotechnology, if it&#8217;s challenging to build, our team constructs it&#8211;safely, on-time and within budget.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">The Employer of Choice</span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>

Cianbro is 100% employee-owned, so as we grow, you&#8217;ll grow with us.  We work together for success in ways few other companies can match. </span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Are you ready for our challenge?</span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">To meet our customers&#8217; needs, Cianbro relies on the best professionals in the construction industry.  From the Carolinas to Maine, our team&#8217;s pride, innovation, and can-do spirit have made us the constructor of choice.  If you are safety-focused, team-oriented, customer-driven, and eager to learn, we want you to join our team.  We are always looking for outstanding people.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Cianbro is committed to respecting the privacy of our users. We strive to provide a safe, secure user experience. This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control, but cannot make absolute guarantees against illegal theft of the applicant data.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">ianbro’s competency is remarkable. From Ralph Cianchette’s rigging skill with a gin pole in the 1940s to his son Ken’s beam and pipe handling invention in the 1950s, to the unique and complicated tidal-marine coffer dam work on the Piscataqua River Bridge in the 1970s, to the innovative deck replacement work on the Woodrow Wilson Bridge and the industry’s first-time use of metalized grating on the Hanover Street Bridge in the 1980s, to today’s use of pin pilling and spin fin piles – a sophisticated geotechnical construction technique – Cianbro puts its can-do spirit to work every day – coming up with innovative and creative solutions for our customer’s needs on a wide variety of projects.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Joe Viau, project engineer for Orion Power states, “Cianbro’s riggers, operators, fitters, welders and crafts people were well trained and dedicated. Their ability to safely work as an efficient team in tough conditions was appreciated by Orion from an owner’s viewpoint.”</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">In the commercial and institutional field speed to market is critical.

In both cases, their ability to manage multiple trades in confined spaces and to self-perform all tasks enable them to guarantee a finished product completed on time.</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;"> </span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:85%;">Whether completing emergency repairs or a major project, heavy industrial operations require a contractor who gets the job done quickly and at a competitive price while causing minimal disruption to on-going manufacturing and the management team.

<p>Along that vein, the members of the Pasco Sheriff’s Office recognize that their team can be strengthened by adding war veterans to their agency&#8230; </p>
<p>The Pasco Sheriff&#8217;s Office members are dedicated to providing outstanding service through community partnerships that build trust, reduce crime, create a safe environment, keep the homeland secure, protect the constitutional rights of citizens and enhance the quality of life in their community. </p>
<p>Sheriff Bob White says, &#8220;We continue to move the Sheriff’s Office forward as one of the most professional law enforcement and detention agencies in the state.

<p><strong>TechFlow Joins HireVeterans.com</strong></p>
<p><em>By Randy Miller</em></p>
<p>In today&#8217;s economy, companies are under enormous pressure to reduce costs. To meet these challenges, companies are systematically launching high impact savings initiatives to leverage purchasing volume, consolidate suppliers, and reduce off-contract spending. However, without accurate business intelligence, it is very difficult to identify savings opportunities, initiate programs to capture the savings, and monitor compliance. Businesses need to have accurate and timely information to answer the following questions; enter TechFlow.</p>
<p>TechFlow brings together key business acumen, industry best practices, development experience, technology understanding and proven knowledge of critical industry standards to help clients improve the overall value and execution.  To meet this challenge Techflow requires the very best employees to make it all work.  Robert Leyh, TechFlow&#8217;s Human Resource Director says &#8220;We are actively recruiting U.S. Veterans now because we need ambitious and disciplined personnel to meet the mission and our U.S. Veterans are top of the line.&#8221;  To reach out to the U.S. Veterans’ Community, TechFlow has joined forces with HireVeterans.com, America&#8217;s premier job board for U.S. Veterans.</p>
