Download or read book The Legend of IBP written by Jeffrey L. Rodengen and published by Write Stuff Syndicate. This book was released on 2000 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With sales of more than $13 billion, IBP is a world-leading producer of protein. In fact, one out of every three steaks and one of every five pork chops consumed in America today was produced by IBP. Yet remarkably, the company is less than 30 years old. Founders Andy Anderson and Currier J. Holman built IBP by applying seemingly simple concepts to one of America's most established industries. Instead of shipping live cattle across the country to stockyards in Chicago and on the East Coast, Currier Holman located processing plants in Iowa and Nebraska near the largest ranches. From there, they shipped vacuum - packed boxed beef, already trimmed and packaged, to supermarkets across the country. With this single idea, and an unwavering attention to quality and efficiency, IBP transformed the industry.

Download or read book A Legend for the Legendary written by James A. Vlasich and published by Popular Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of baseball are controversial. James A. Vlasich discusses the debates between two men intimately involved in nineteenth-century baseball, Henry Chadwick and Albert G. Spalding. Abner Graves of the Mills Commission claimed that Abner Doubleday had invented the game and he had done it in Cooperstown, New York. This claim was scrutinized at the time but the myth became etched into baseball history. Through the years, however, some critics have questioned the Mills Commission report. The problem is that the Baseball Hall of Fame is built on this shaky foundation. The lack of diligence on the part of Spalding's self-appointed committee has led to a credibility gap for the baseball shrine that continues a half century after its dedication. Indeed, the story of the building of the Baseball Hall of Fame is filled with intrigue worthy of a political thriller.
