in 1976 world trade began growing again and the u . s . congress returned to exploring how to tax reinvested foreign earnings , such as those from ships flying under foreign flags . sea containers inc . made its bermuda subsidiary an independent company , to lease ships , containers , and cranes in europe , the mideast , south america , and africa . the new company ' s shares became a dividend for owners of sea containers and were listed on the new york stock exchange on a
paired
basis along with the parent . under the law , a shareholder had to buy or sell equal amounts of stock in both companies at once , and stocks actually were printed back - to - back , giving rise to the term

the first 15 or so times i heard about sea containers , the new south bank restaurant inside the mondrian london hotel , it floated in my subconscious as merely a working title . no one , i was sure , would call a restaurant something so bloody awful . i remember vividly sea containers house , the building the mondrian now inhabits , from the 1990s . i worked next door in the marie claire office , commuting daily to that unholy crevice of se1 . sea containers house was a bland , epic - proportioned carbuncle , supplied by the blackfriars train with forlorn - looking besuited souls enslaved to its colossal admin needs . when the mondrian hotel group moved in this year , lavishing millions upon the structure , believe me , literally any combination of words would have been better to hint at a fresh , glamorous beginning than ‘sea containers’ . but then i’m not sure if anyone in charge of the mondrian really minds what londoners think .

after the second world war , in booming international trade , containers were discovered to be very efficient way of transporting cargo . many factories in several continents were building containers . problems of handling these different types of units occurred at the same time . too many different types of containers , cranes and handling equipment , not compatible with each other , were produced to the growing international cargo trade . quite soon , in year 1961 , first”international standards for container sizes” were agreed .

gner has already warned the dft of its financial problems but the department is opposed to renegotiation . sea containers ' chief executive bob mackenzie , who becomes the rail company ' s executive chairman at the end of this month , is expected to argue that cutting gner ' s payments is preferable to a lower offer from a depleted range of bidders .
additionally , because jerricans provide very secure vessels for potentially harmful liquids , the government and private industry use the containers to store increasingly more substances—particularly when transportation is necessary .

by 1988 , the industry ' s excess capacity had vanished through consolidation . the freshness of produce was becoming increasingly important to consumers , particularly in the united states , and companies such as dole , united brands , and del monte wanted refrigerated and tank containers for their bananas and other fruits . with those reefers and other specialty boxes making up 70 percent of its container fleet , sea containers had little trouble leasing its inventory . but the number three container lessor in the world was about to run into a storm .
sea containers experienced its first loss ever in 1986 , primarily because of overcapacity in the industry and the failure of several large shipping companies . taking the traditional route of closing money - losing ferry and freight routes , laying off workers , and selling off surplus containers and ships , sherwood got the company back on track . over the next two years , he bought more of the specialty type containers , refurbished ferries , bought hoverspeed ( u . k . ) - - a cross - channel ferry competitor , announced plans to launch an express train service from thailand through malaysia to singapore , and began building residential housing on real estate around the company ' s u . k . ports .

during 1992 , in what may have been a defense against another takeover attempt , sea containers announced a dual capitalization proposal . it would issue two classes of common shares , with class a paying higher cash dividends but allotted fewer voting rights . the proposal would allow the company to increase the number of shares it was authorized to issue , giving it greater financial flexibility .
bermuda - based sea containers admits it offered too much when it agreed last year to pay £1 . 3bn to renew the gner franchise to operate the east coast london to edinburgh line . rivals offered no more than £1bn and the problems facing the train operator mean it is likely to attract significantly lower offers if the department for transport is forced to seek new operators .
most cps were in favour of moving the standard to pending as they felt more time was required to assess and address the potential pest risk with the tools available ( e . g . ctu code , cpm recommendation on sea containers ) . other cps felt that the ctu code was a useful tool but an ispm would be complementary in providing nppos with guidance on monitoring .

although registered in bermuda , sea containers ltd . operated out of london . it took advantage of the privatization occurring under the thatcher government to purchase sealink u . k . ltd . , the ferry subsidiary of the government - owned rail service . the $ 86 . 9 million price bought the company 37 ships on 24 routes to ireland and europe , ferry services on lake windermere and the thames river , and facilities at ten harbors .
a belated thank you very much for the well - priced container , for arranging delivery so well and for your obliging manner . we will recommend you as the
go to
person for containers .
all containers are designed and tested to australian and iso standards and are manufactured using the latest technology in the refrigerated transport industry to ensure maximum thermal efficiency , to ensure your product arrives fresh each and every time .
maritime transport is essential to the world’s economy as over 90 % of the world’s trade is carried by sea and it is , by far , the most cost - effective way to move en masse goods and raw materials around the world .
but the company was not ignoring its container business , introducing a new patented seacell unit that was as wide as two - pallet containers and could be easily moved in ordinary container ships , unlike other two - pallet wide dry cargo units . in 1997 the company created a new means of financing its container fleet .
the ability to securitize container debt in the commercial paper market enables the company to increase its container leasing business significantly without many of the constraints normally imposed by banks ,
the company explained in a journal of commerce article . what sea containers did was to create negotiable commercial paper , like a bond or stock , that was secured by cargo containers . the cost of the new notes was less than the interest paid to banks for lines of credit and enabled the company to reduce its long - term debt by a full percent a year , a savings of at least $ 2 million annually .
modern container shipping celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2006 . almost from the first voyage , use of this method of transport for goods grew steadily and in just five decades , containerships would carry about 60 % of the value of goods shipped via sea .
during the second half of the decade , sea containers expanded its leisure properties with the purchase of the
21
club in new york city and the launch of its river cruise ship , the road to mandalay , operating in myanmar . it also bought up luxury hotels , including a share in charleston place , in historic charleston , south carolina ; reid ' s hotel on the island of madeira ; la samanna beach resort in st . martin , french west indies ; and hotel da lapa in lisbon . orient - express hotels managed these and also took over management of non - sea container properties , including the hotel de la cite in carcassonne , france and the bora bora lagoon resort in the south pacific society islands .
in 1984 the two companies unstapled , having saved about $ 65 million in u . s . taxes since the arrangement began in 1976 , according to a 1984 forbes article . again the irs provided the impetus , as it moved to force all such pairs to separate by 1987 . under the restructuring , seaco inc . got out of the container and ship leasing business all together , selling most of those assets to sea containers ltd . sherwood , however , remained president of both companies .
new ferry routes and new hotels , combined with falling lease rates for marine containers , pointed the direction of the company . sherwood reiterated it at sea container ' s 1999 annual meeting :
for several years our strategy has been to transform the company from what was primarily a marine container asset leasing business into a company which is largely passenger transportation and leisure based .
to underscore the changing focus , he also announced that a name change would be proposed before the end of the year .
each method of freight for drum shipping has benefits and disadvantages , and it should be easy to pick the right method for each need—air and sea are better for international shipments , but air must be in smaller , lighter weight quantities and with less volatile substances .
still , if you are that sort of person , there is a lot to love at sea containers . if one desires to seat a lot of people , the large citrus - leather horseshoe banquettes look like fun . in daytime , st paul’s cathedral’s lovely bosom - shaped mound is visible . the service , during my visit , was prompt , upbeat and altogether glorious . we skipped the raw bar serving yuzu ceviche and tuna crudo . it was cold outside and i wanted solid , straight dinner .
guests will immediately be drawn to the giant , copper clad wall inspired by the hull of a ship , running from outside the building , through to the lobby and on to the river side of the hotel . experience underwater tranquillity and specialised treatments at agua spa , sample delicious food using locally sourced ingredients at sea containers restaurant , where outdoor seating along the river walk is also available , and sample innovative cocktails from mr lyan at dandelyan with its iconic green marble bar and dramatic views of the thames .
kramer group and the port of rotterdam authority signed an agreement to establish a service center for refrigerated containers in the former city terminal near eemhaven . the subsidiaries of kramer group – seamark reefer service and am - solution – will provide services repair , cleaning , storage , inspection and maintenance of refrigerated containers at the new facility . in addition , the platform will be used as a company’s terminal service for the delivery of loaded reefer containers between eemhaven and the new deepwater port of rotterdam – maasvlakte . a business site of 5 . 5 hectares and a quay wall of almost 200 m in length will be available to kramer group . for this purpose , the port of rotterdam authority will have a quay for inland shipping vessels built at the site .
inspired by the golden age of transatlantic travel and designed under the creative direction of visionary tom dixon , by design research studio , sea containers at mondrian london brings the best of american and british cuisine to the southbank , offering a modern yet casual dining experience in an informal setting alongside the river thames . the copper - clad hull guides you through to the restaurant , which boasts an open - plan kitchen featuring an impressive wood - fired oven . at the centre of the restaurant , there is an iconic 18 - seat signature stainless steel bar designed to reflect an american diner , together with a yellow submarine which continues the maritime theme of the hotel . sea containers also boasts stunning views over the thames , a riverside terrace for al fresco dining and a private dining room with an outdoor terrace . the restaurant serves breakfast , lunch and dinner daily and offers a bottomless bloody mary or prosecco brunch on the weekend , with menus reflecting the best locally sourced produce . a variety of small plates , sharing dishes and classic comfort food is available as well as more formal feasting options .
with the seacat , the company began operating the world ' s first car - carrying high - speed catamarans across the channel between dover and calais . the hoverspeed great britain was soon joined by other seacats in the company ' s ferry fleet , replacing hoverspeed ' s hovercraft , and by 1993 , there were six seacat routes , including one between argentina and uruguay and one in australia . revenge may have been sweet , as stena ab laid off workers in 1991 because of mounting losses in the u . k . ferry operations it bought from sea containers .
in 1940 , the british would be the first allied country to identify the jerrican’s significance , stumbling upon the containers as a result of the german invasion of norway . this prompted british officers to contact pleiss when he visited london and request information on the jerrican’s design .
during the rest of the decade , the container leasing business boomed . in 1977 sea container ' s revenues were up more than 50 percent to $ 90 million , with $ 26 million in profits . the following year , the company earned nearly $ 32 million on revenues of $ 163 million .
corporations compelled to safeguard liquids during shipment and storage use jerricans due to the high degree of protection the containers provide . many households use jerricans for the storage of chemicals and gasoline . jerricans even assist those in regions of water scarcity by providing a tight container for water delivery .
we even include the carriage bolts , washers . that ' s right no more trimming or cutting of the door gasket . feel free to ask us about quantity deals if you need more than 10 . cargo containers are very over engineered for what most of us will use them for .
size - 40ft x 8ft x 9 . 5ft . wind & water tight ( wwt ) – a criterion under which containers are literally “wind and water tight” . in short , if you lock yourself inside the container , you should not see any light coming through the panels or roof .


team 4 was a british architectural firm , established in 1963 by architecture graduates su brumwell , wendy cheesman , norman foster and richard rogers .

team 4 was dissolved in 1967 .

the practice originally included wendy cheesman 's sister georgie wolton ( née cheesman ) who , as the only qualified architect of the group , allowed the practice to function .

georgie cheeseman left after only a few months , leaving the remaining members to try to pass their professional exams while continuing to practice .

rogers , foster and brumwell had first met while studying at yale university .

rogers and brumwell later married one another , as did foster and wendy cheeseman .

this phrase has gone from being a provocative statement to something of a truism , but that doesn’t necessarily mean every company knows how to act like one .
founded in 1989 , pivotal is a consultancy that uses open source software and a collaborative design and development approach to help enterprises expand their in - house product development capabilities . clients send their employees to pivotal’s office for an extended immersive workshop where they work alongside the consultancy group’s own developers and designers to learn test - driven , lean product development by absorption .
“in enterprise we have software developers who have a lot of different talent and skills , but not all of them are modern skills , ” said pivotal chicago director austin vance ( pictured right ) . “how do we train and bring our developers to work on these modern cloud platforms , and how do we do that quickly ? ”
one of pivotal’s answers to that question is pair programming : the client’s developers are placed alongside pivotal’s , working together in pairs on the same computer to solve a problem . in doing so , the two developers learn from — and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of — each other’s approaches along the way . in going through the program , developers and designers also receive continuous feedback and participate in retrospectives .
pivotal also trains startups and legacy companies alike in building and scaling product teams — and in challenging employees in order to motivate them to stick around .
headquartered in san francisco , pivotal chose chicago as its first location in the midwest because of its thriving ecosystem of fortune 500 companies and readily available tech talent . along with three other “pivots , ” vance moved here from boulder , co in january 2014 in the midst of the infamous polar vortex .
“i fell in love with the city right off the bat , ” said vance . “i feel like there is this amazing collaborative atmosphere inside of 1871 , inside of chicago enterprises , where everybody in the city , in the space , are looking to transform their companies in order to become more productive , stay top of market , release more relevant and productive applications faster . ”
“product managers , software engineers , product designers — we’re looking for all of them , ” said vance . “it’s time for pivotal to reinvest in chicago and settle in a little bit , and so that’s what our goal is for the next six months here . ”

so when rumors began to swirl about jay - z planning to release his 13th solo studio album , the news instantly created an air of excitement among listeners , critics and even fellow rappers , all eager to see what hov would bring to the table this time . however , more importantly , the anticipation was also a byproduct of the hip - hop populous & apos ; curiosity about whether he was still capable of wowing us with his sheer lyrical ability and innate observations or if he had a lost a step—many had whispered as such following the release of his last solo lp , 2013 & apos ; s magna carta holy grail .
