____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ Froome's performances since the Vuelta 11 are so good that he should be considered a Grand Tour champion.

INTRODUCTION TO THE TEAMS AND RIDERS TO WATCH FOR GarminGarmin----TransitionsTransitions Ryder Hesjedal, 7th overall in the Tour de France, and the first Canadian Top 10 finisher in the Grande Boucle since Steve Bauer in 1988, will be looking to shine in front of the home crowd. EuskaltelEuskaltel----EuskadiEuskadi This team is made up almost entirely of cyclists from the Basque Country. Samuel Sánchez, Gold Medalist at the Beijing Olympics, narrowly missed the podium in this year’s Tour de France. Rabobank The orange-garbed team brings a 100% Dutch line-up to Québec and Montréal, led by Robert Gesink, a 24-year-old full of promise who finished 6th overall in the 2010 Tour de France, and solid lieutenants like Joost PosthumaPosthuma and Bram Tankink.

Team Radioshack Taps APE Wraps™ for Races Team Radioshack, Founded by Lance Armstrong in 2009, Needed to Brand Its U.S
casestudy “We chose Avery Dennison’s MPI 1005 Supercast Easy Apply RS and DOL 1360 overlaminate for this job because of their high quality and excellent printability” Team RadioShack Taps APE Wraps™ for Races Team RadioShack, founded by Lance Armstrong in 2009, needed to brand its U.S. fleet with the team’s graphics for its 2011 North American stage races. The team’s management contacted APE Wraps in San Diego for the second year in a row to create the graphics, print and install the wraps for its five support vehicles and trailer. The fleet provides support to the 29-member team at races around the country. The vehicles needed to be ready for the first race in North America. The 2011 Amgen Tour of California, an 800 mile, eight day Tour de France-style cycling road race, covered much of California from May 15 - 22. “We were thrilled to work with a brand like Team RadioShack again and inspired to work on the vehicles that would support the team’s professional cyclists, including stars like Levi Leipheimer, Chris Horner and Ben King,” said Troy Downey, president of APE Wraps. “We adapted the team’s branding and graphics, from the designs used for the European tour, to fit their U.S. fleet.” Inspired Brands. Intelligent World.TM www.averygraphics.com casestudy > APE Wraps’ designers utilized the assets provided and created designs that would fit the team’s 45 foot coach bus, Nissan Titan truck, 26 foot trailer, two Nissan Rogues and Nissan Armada. The designs were quickly approved and more than 4,000 square feet of Avery Dennison vinyl was printed and laminated for the team’s vehicles. -

NEBRASKA LEDGER • 2020 Focused on Thefuture
NEBRASKA LEDGER • 2020 Focused on theFuture As this issue of The Nebraska Ledger was being created, the spread of COVID-19 continued in the U.S. and started a time of unprecedented change at the University of Nebraska. In order to be proactive, classes were suspended March 16-20 and students were encouraged to return home as our faculty began preparing for online delivery of courses. While our accounting students left, they needed technology and internet service sufficient for online learning at home. When faculty and staff started working from home, seemingly overnight, it was necessary for communications – from department meetings to office hours – to be held via Zoom. As many of us quickly transitioned our courses in Canvas and utilized tools like VidGrid and YellowDig. We also struggled for internet bandwidth because our own children were taking remote courses. Through hard work and resilience, our faculty used their expertise and talents to start teaching remotely on March 30. As a department, we held daily Zoom meetings to connect with each other or commiserate and share best practices. Because they believe in the power of every person, they also connect with students through phone calls and remote office hours. We appreciate our students for stepping up to this challenge alongside us. These same qualities, strengths and effort are used by our SOA community in the stories inside this Nebraska Ledger. Kelli Saunders built bridges between the internal audit and fraud examination communities. She also earned a very rare third grant from the Center for Audit Quality to run experiments through professional auditors.
