I wanted to take a couple of minutes to mention our partnership this year with the The 17th International Exhibition and Conference for the Pulp/Paper and Forestry Industries to be held in Beijing in September. Please note that the dates have changed to 16-18 Sept 09. If you do business in China, you won't want to miss this conference. Alternating between Beijing and Shanghai, I had the opportunity to attend several years ago and found it quite impressive.

Answer to last week's riddle: Iceland's parliament - The Althing - the world's first.

Last week's riddle asked: "Remove one letter from the phrase "The All Thing," combine the remaining letters into two words (without switching any order) and come up with an institution of political/historic importance."

This week's riddle: Why were the Romans perplexed by algebra (hint: this is a joke)?
