If you are in need of conference tables for your office or business then you should take a look at the Conference Tables at Unique Concepts.

Each design can be customized with electrical outlets, grommets and channels for cords and wires in such a way as to make these often ugly accessories almost invisible. There’s a huge variety of conference table designs to choose from. If you visit the Unique concept site just click on the gallery photos of the designs that interest you and you’ll be taken to another page with a full description of the table and a large photo of it as well.

The table designs are made with many different materials. Some of the conference tables are sold wood, while others are metal, or glass. Some have veneer or laminates while others are stone. It’s your choice. Whichever style suits your business and or your budget.

I took a closer look at one of the table designs. It’s a solid Cherry wood table with Carajas Granite inlaid on either side of the surface with two Motorized Power/Data Modules set in the center of the table. It’s a fantastic design - both modern and sleek as well as tasteful and luxurious all at once.

I worked for two large computer related companies in the past - one would never have had tables like this. They didn’t care about their image or their employees and in fact never really had sit down meetings for the employees to collaborate on ideas either. The other most definitely would have had tables like these, and it did in fact have similar styles. That company is still around today and it’s doing well. I’m not saying that a conference table makes the business … but the ideas and thoughts that are shared while sitting at a conference table certainly can make a business.

Conference tables are great places for your employees to go over ideas, business plans or models, and they great to have and use when you are meeting with other companies or clients. Take a good look at the designs at Unique Concepts, the sponsor of this post, and see if you think that one of these tables might enhance your business by inspiring your team of employees to collaborate on ideas in new and better ways.

Yes, literally. Why does this story put songs like Paint it Black (substituting Pink for Black), or Lily the Pink in my head?

Residents of a depressed eastern Indian town are painting it pink in a bid to boost morale and cut crime. Can you imagine a whole city painted pink? I have a feeling that the will either drive the towns people nuts or cause more crime, but that’s just my personal opinion.

Aurangabad, in India’s Bihar state, was a hot bed of Maoist rebel activity, and suffered from killings, extortion, kidnapping, and inter-caste wars says Arvind Kumar Singh, a senior local government official. So instead of fighting the crime and catching the rebels they ordered several cans of paint. Uh huh.

“We are hoping that the color pink, which is soothing and pretty, will erase these blots from the past and make the town look attractive,” Singh said of the initiative, which kicked off in June. I thought the colour green was supposed to be a calming colour and that that was why it’s used in prisons and clinical therapy areas so often? I wonder which shade of pink they choose or if they used many different shades?

The prettier-in-pink concept came from the dominant Rajput community, who moved to Bihar from the western desert state of Rajasthan, whose capital, Jaipur, is known as the “pink city.” So they’re just copying another cities idea?

I wonder if their pets have to wear pink now too? This poor pup doesn’t look very happy in pink:

Do you think that changing the colour of a city will really work to lessen crime? Would you feel calmer surrounded by pink?

Talk to me.
