Hart Main
Hart Main is a 14-year old that came up with the idea of manly scented candles when he was teasing his sister about the girly scented ones she was selling for a school fundraiser. Although she didn't expect him to fully pursue the manly scented candles idea himself, he did, and the idea has turned into a nationwide success. Main put in an initial investment of $100, his parents put in $200, and they all worked together to develop the candles as a group. The available scents include: Campfire, Bacon, Sawdust, Fresh Cut Grass, Grandpa's Pipe and more. Today, ManCans candles are in over 60 stores across the country and have sold about 9,000 units. Main will stick with selling ManCans' inventory until he has to shift his focus back into school in the fall. I mean, he is only 14 after all. 



Fraser Doherty
At the age of 14, Doherty began making jams from his grandmother's recipes. As the word got out, he began receiving more orders than he had time to fill. He dropped out of school and rented a 200-person factory a few days each month. In 2007, a high-end U.K. supermarket approached Doherty about selling his jams leading to his products gaining shelf space in 184 stores. By 2007, his company had $750,000 in sales. Since then, his company has continued to grow throughout Europe.

SHIPPING VOCABULARY: INCOTERMS

The Incoterms rules or International Commercial Terms are a series of pre-defined commercial terms published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) relating to international commercial law. They are widely used in International commercial transactions or procurement processes as the use in international sales is encouraged by trade councils, courts and international lawyers. A series of three-letter trade terms related to common contractual sales practices, the Incoterms rules are intended primarily to clearly communicate the tasks, costs, and risks associated with the transportation and delivery of goods. Incoterms inform sales contract defining respective obligations, costs, and risks involved in the delivery of goods from the seller to the buyer.
Some examples:
 CFR      CIF      CIP      DAP      DAT      DDP      EXW      FAS      FCA      FOB

Do you want to improve your pronunciation? Read the following article!!

http://culturacolectiva.com/12-canciones-son-suficientes-para-aprender-a-pronunciar-en-ingles/

12 canciones son suficientes para aprender a pronunciar en inglés



... pero de verdad existe un método infalible para que la lengua inglesa se apodere de nuestras vidas y se facilite en el habla: escuchar música. Nada tiene que ver con una especie de mensaje subliminal dentro de las canciones ni un ejercicio alternativo o milagroso que te haga hablar como un anglosajón hecho y derecho, el esfuerzo nunca escapa de nuestras obligaciones como estudiantes.
