Despite continuing economic uncertainty in 2010, SPIE’s business held up well, and profitability improved for the fifth year running. The Group broke new ground in all of its markets and saw organic growth resume in France
With consolidated turnover up 0.7% year-on-year to €3.75 billion, annual business volume stabilised, underpinned by a balanced customer portfolio and good anticipation of sector trends, with growth in the healthcare and social housing sectors, sustained mobility in cities, demand for energy efficiency in services and manufacturing, the solar photovoltaic boom and the roll-out of broadband networks being just a few examples. In addition, SPIE further strengthened its excellent position in the energy markets.

Over the past six months UK small-to-medium-sized businesses (SMBs) have grown on average by six per cent despite the broader UK economy struggling, according to the latest SMB Index from HP.
HP’s survey of 1,000 SMBs, with between 1 and 50 employees shows that, compared to that of the previous six months, growth for UK SMBs has slowed slightly but optimism is still strong, with SMBs expecting to grow by up to 13 per cent over the next year. Optimism in the economy is also strong, with 66 per cent of SMBs optimistic about the year ahead. SMBs in Financial Services have grown the most (13 per cent), followed by Manufacturing (10 per cent). SMBs in Retail (4 per cent) and Professional Services (1 per cent) have seen the least growth. Nearly half of UK SMBs (48 per cent) are turning to social media to help grow their business and reach new audiences, with 56 per cent of sole traders recognising its value the most. However, although SMBs are finding social media beneficial for networking purposes (83 per cent), and as a mechanism for advertising (57 per cent), many SMBs are underestimating its true potential for business growth and lead generation.

Outdoor lighting is additionally helpful for security reasons. When the days get shorter, acutely in winter, outdoor lighting can lengthen the day and dramatically tweak the locations of your outdoor residence spaces.

http://fitnessweightlosscenter.com - Rocky Presses - Shoulder Workouts - This is a great workout targeting your shoulders and incorporating your tricep muscles. Also know as a Bradford Press this exercise is one of several that target your shoulders. It's a good exercise for beginners because you are seated on the chair and have back support which helps you to maintian the correct posture and form throughout the exercise.
As with all free weight exercises it's best to have a spotter to reduce the risk on injury especially as you move up in weight.
If you are just starting out make sure you perform the exercise with the proper technique at a lower weight before you increase the weight. I can't stress enough the importance of proper technique with all weight training exercises including the Rocky Press.

HOLD ME Lyrics
Music: Maini Sorri
Lyrics: Gary Cornman
1. I'm feeling really down
I hope you come around.
Hold me real tight with all your might.
2. Hold me every way
Hold me throughout the day.
Feeling upside down about to drown.
Chore: Hold me, just hold me
Don't let me sit here alone
you can just pick up your phone
Hold me, just hold me
I need that you will stop on by
you can dry a teary eye.
Hold me.
3. Just hold me in this room
to help me out of gloom.
Hold before you go I feel so low.
4. I want your loving hugs
just like addictive drugs
never got enough of hugging stuff.
Chore: Hold me, just hold me
Don't let me sit here alone
you can just pick up your phone
Hold me, just hold me
I need that you will stop on by
you can dry a teary eye.
Hold me.
Hold me in the night and make it bright
reaching out for you to get me out of blue.
Hold me.
5. I'm feeling really down
I hope you come around.
Hold me real tight with all your might.
6. Hold me every way
Hold me throughout the day.
Feeling upside down about to drown.
Chore: Hold me, just hold me
Don't let me sit here alone
you can just pick up your phone
Hold me, just hold me
I need that you will stop on by
you can dry a teary eye.
Chore: Hold me, just hold me
Don't let me sit here alone
you can just pick up your phone
Hold me, just hold me
I need that you will stop on by
you can dry a teary eye.
