Прикольно. Значит надо какие-то поправки вносить.

The Picture you show on this site isn’t a group photo of the “Cupertion Riders.” I am one of the original members. so I should know. Who you have pictured here are the “Repack” participants.
The following link will direct you to an original photo of “The Cupertino Boys.”

At Trillium Asset Management Corp. our Equal Exchange coffee cupping was a fun way to connect our mission with our daily work.

We are a company well-versed on the social and economic implications of global trade (coffee and otherwise), but to have Equal Exchange come in brought a physical presence to our company’s mission.

For me, I love being with people who know much more about something than I do.

Also, ya know, who doesn’t like coffee and chocolate.

With a bit of luck, I will post some photos soon.

Comment on Across 20 years, and now? by Brian Crouth

The shared vision among Equal Exchange investors and other stake holders communicated in the “Coin and the Common Wealth” Blog goes hand-in-hand with the campaigns and future political actions being lead by Equal Exchange that’s communicated in the “Small Farmers.Big Change.” Blog. In order to turn the tide in a positive direction for a fair, sustainable, and democratic food system, socially conscious purchases and investmests will need to be supplemented with other direct actions that influence government policies and pushes back against the multi-national corporations that control agriculture. I encourage readers of this Blog to also stay connected with the SFBG Blog at http://eecampaign.wordpress.com to learn more about other exciting ways we can “forge our common wealth” together.
