Indra Nooyi wants to prove that PepsiCo can make its portfolio of snacks and beverages healthier and minimize its impact on the environment, all while continuing to deliver the same healthy profit growth it has been known for in recent years. Ms. Nooyi, 52, has devoted considerable time in her first year as chairman and CEO to crafting and preaching a vision that calls for the Purchase, N.Y., company to become a corporate leader on both of those fronts, as well as to foster a workplace environment that offers employees "a career, not just a job," she told a group of business leaders in Miami in September. Her drive to make PepsiCo "known around the world as a good company" has deep roots in her childhood in India, she said. Around the family dinner table in Madras, India, Ms.
Leafs turn to Fletcher
Forget about 2008. Forget about 2009. If the Leafs ever expect to win the Cup again they will need one or two young stars to build the team around. They need a long term plan. Sadly, the team's ownership has not demonstrated a desire to win a the Cup for a long time. Posted 22/01/08 at 10:33 AM EST | Alert an Editor | Link to Comment .

They are making a big deal out of exempting the veterans clubs. I believe those are private clubs — members only and their guests. They are not public places and therefore would be exempt anyway.)This legislative committee doesn’t care about your health or your pocketbook. It only cares about taxes. Let’s put the truth out where it can be seen.Either make it a total, statewide ban on all tobacco, including sales, proving that our health is all important or leave well enough alone and let the individual decide. Leave your financial advisers at home.I dare you.P.S. They say that "... four out of five Iowans support the smoking ban ..."

Thinking of spring training, Francoeur’s future
It'll be interesting to see if he's pleased with the results, since he's had to fit his workout regimen around getting married and all that goes with that. Francoeur knows he still needs to keep improving on his plate discipline and using the entire field, since he's always more productive and a tougher out during those stretches when he's staying in his approach, hitting line drives and using the whole field, not trying to pull balls over the left-field fence. Again, it's a balancing act. He wants to be a 30-homer guy, because he knows he can help the team by providing another legit power-hitting threat pitchers have to be concerned with (not to mention, he probably knows you get paid a lot for hitting homers). But he also wants to maintain an average between .280-.300.
