Byline: Carla Webb O’Connor
WILMINGTON, Del.-Groupe SEB’s bid to acquire WearEver from Global Home Products would give the company a big push further into the mass channel in cookware and an entry into the bakeware category.
The acquisition by the French company, whose bid of $36.5 million was approved by the bankruptcy court here last week, includes all of WearEver’s inventories, trade receivables, equipment in Mexico-where it manufactures a large portion of its products-and trademarks, including its Mirro, Regal, WearEver and AirBake brands.

Speaking of Speakers
Pharmaceutical Representative, June, 2009 by McCarthy, Justin
Speaker programs remain one of the best ways to engage with doctors – providing you handle them correctly
Undoubtedly, the constant changes in our marketplace have made it increasingly difficult to make meaningful and measurable impact on market share. Fortunately, speaker programs (or peer-to-peer programs) are still one of the most effective resources that can be utilized to make a difference in your territory. Additionally, the ability to compose a successful program communicates to your manager and peers, as well as healthcare providers, that you are a person of influence.
The more preparation for a speaker program, the more likely it is to be successful. Simply bringing in an expert to your territory and inviting physicians, mid-level providers and other key…
With heart
Prepared Foods, May, 2009 by Meredith Hollihan
Today’s increased health scares concerning heart disease position heart health as a common platform for products to leverage across numerous food sub-categories. Manufacturers capture demand from cholesterol-conscious consumers by offering products with ingredients that have low levels of or no cholesterol. Women, in particular, are a key demographic for low-/no-/reduced-cholesterol claims; according to the American Heart Association, heart disease is the number one killer of American women.
All top 10 sub-categories of products embracing a low-/no-/ reduced-cholesterol stance increased in product launches in 2008, when compared to 2006. With 1,122 global products launched between 2005-2008, savory and salty snacks represented the largest sub-group of items that boast their formulations are “low in” or free of cholesterol. The vast majority of these items were introduced to the U.S. This finding comes as no surprise, considering the country’s active efforts in promoting heart health awareness to Americans through various campaigns.
Campbell Soup Company expanded V8′s full-serving concept into a new range of soup products. Introduced into the U.S., V8 Soup claims to provide a serving of vegetables in one 8oz bowl of soup. V8 soup is made from farm-fresh ingredients, is low in cholesterol and fat levels, and does not contain artificial flavors or preservatives

Pioneer Provides Luxury of Home Entertainment on the Road with New In-Car Audio Video Players
Business Wire, Jan 8, 2009
iPod and iPhone Integration Expands Entertainment Capabilities for Premium “Sight and Sound” User Experience
LAS VEGAS — Today’s generation of drivers are continually looking for different ways to bring their home entertainment experience into the car, and Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. succeeds in delivering two new car A/V receivers that transform the dashboard into an entertainment haven on wheels. Pioneer’s AVH-P3100DVD and AVH-P4100DVD double DIN multi-media systems are a hub for music, video and connectivity in the car, offering large 5.8″ or 7″ touch screens for exceptional viewing of DVD videos, DivX[R] and jpeg images; enhanced iPod[R](*) and iPhone integration for expanded control of these devices; and Advanced Sound Retriever (ASR), which restores sound lost during the process of compressing a recording into MP3, WMA or AAC file formats.
“Pioneer recognized the need to incorporate advanced iPod functionality into its new in-car offerings so users can quickly and easily access their media library while on the road,” said Larry Rougas, vice president of marketing and product planning for the mobile business group of Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. “In addition, we’re providing more ways for drivers to be entertained with the ability to add HD radio and Satellite car radio as well as enabling hands-free phone conversation using Bluetooth[R](***) so they can safely stay connected to their on-the-go lifestyles.”
Advanced iPod and iPhone Integration
The new AVH offerings expand on the way consumers use iPod devices by offering more capabilities that accelerate access to their favorite music collections including:
* Album Art is displayed in the iPod control screen, creating a more thorough and immersive experience with music.
* Alphabetical Speed Search allows the user to quickly scroll through long lists of artists, albums and songs by accessing the first letter in the name.
* Passenger Control for iPod gives passengers the option to browse and select music directly through the iPod player itself.
* Link Play lets users view all iPod content by the artist currently playing (similar to the artist folder function on an iPod). Three-Way Link Play allows the user to view by Album, Artist or Genre, opening up new ways to explore & discover your music.
Both units feature an intuitive Touch Slide control for quicker navigation through modern media – especially the Artist, Album, and Genre lists on iPod, as well as massive music file and folder lists. It even enables users to fast forward and rewind(**) through DVD/CD discs and USB(#) connected devices containing DivX, MP3, WMA and AAC by simply touching and dragging a bar on the bottom of the display.
Customization
Each model offers extensive options for users to customize the button illumination colors as well as create their own background display to add a personal touch to their dashboard.
* The user can choose from 112 different illumination colors to match their dashboard lighting, for a seamless fit with their vehicle providing that OEM look.
* The customizable backgrounds feature provide the user the choice of four preloaded wallpapers and three background visual (BGV), or the ability to import a JPEG image from a CD or USB to use as a wallpaper.
Video
Both systems offer unprecedented playback of iPod video, DVD discs or downloaded DivX[R] video content. The addition of a picture viewer feature allows users to view images stored on various mediums. Similar to a digital picture frame, images loaded on CD-R/CD-RW discs are displayed on the screen playing automatically in alphabetical order.
Sound
In addition to MOSFET50 50 Watts X 4 amplification, high volt pre-amp outputs and two-way crossovers, both AV players offer Pioneer’s patented ASR. The ASR feature restores the musical detail lost in the creation of compressed music files to create a fuller, richer and more enjoyable listening experience during playback.
Connectivity
The AVH-3100DVD and AVH-4100DVD provides connection to other sources such as an optional XM[R] or SIRIUS[R] satellite radio tuner (activation required), HD Radio tuner and Bluetooth(***) wireless adapter for hands-free calling. Music devices with USB or mini jack outputs can also be connected via USB(#) port located either in front (AVH-P3100DVD) or rear (AVH-P4100DVD) of the players or auxiliary mini jack input. Connection through USB(#) controls basic functions of the portable devices directly on the face of the Pioneer players.
Pricing and Availability
The AVH-3100DVD and AVH-P4100DVD will be available in February and March with a suggested price of $450 and $580, respectively.
Pioneer’s Mobile Business Group is known for offering the kind of in-car products that make driving more enjoyable by offering high quality audio and video, advanced connectivity and ease-of-use
Need for health insurance options
USA TODAY, June, 2009
Need for health insurance options
Health care costs are rising more than most people can afford. We desperately need a strong public medical insurance option (“Should you be required to have medical coverage?,” Our view, Health care reform debate, June 10).
Public health insurance would give choice to those who need it. People who want to keep their private insurance plans would be able to do so. This country was founded on diversity
Hair removal is now quicker and easier
MMR, August 27, 2007
NEW YORK — Hair removal is not always an easy process, sometimes involving discomfort and usually requiring a substantial investment of time, as well. As a result, depilatory makers have focused on developing products that minimize discomfort and deliver convenience and ease of use.
Del Laboratories Inc.’s Sally Hansen brand, the category leader, offers a comprehensive line of products that offer different removal methods–waxes, lotions and creams–as well as bleaches to lighten hair and medicated post-removal products to soothe redness and bumps. The brand’s success is reflected in its nearly 30% share of category sales and a 4% sales growth rate that exceeds the total category’s 1.1% expansion, according to Information Resources Inc. (IRI) (based on sales through food, drug and discount stores–excluding Wal-Mart Stores Inc.–for the 52 weeks ended June 17).
Another brand showing strong growth is Bikini Zone from CCA Industries Inc., which posted a 49% jump in revenues as reported by IRI. According to president and chief operating officer Dunnan Edell, the company’s business model focuses on developing unique products. “We pool the creative experience and intelligence of our principles and marketing team to grow our brands organically,” he explains.
In recent years men’s depilatories have gained traction as part of the general growth of the men’s grooming business. Del’s Hansen for Men collection includes a hair remover lotion and hair removal strips in addition to other grooming aids. The scale of the men’s segment is suggested by the fact that Nair for Men from Church & Dwight Co. has become the No
