He created art that practitioners could use to defend themselves while also protecting their attacker from injury. Aikido serves as physical and mental training in the art of universal peace and reconciliation,” www.newschoolaikido.net.

While many of the exhibitors included martial artists from New School Aikido, there were also some recognizable speakers who included Jill Averett; Rev. Kathleen L.

ABOUT HEMP, INC.’s DECORTICATION PLANT IN NORTH CAROLINA
The decortication facility in North Carolina continues to progress. See its current video update here. According to Hemp, Inc. executives, the German engineers are expected to arrive in 5 days to begin reassembly of its decortication line.

Hemp, Inc.’s automated Temafa decortication line, which can be used to process raw hemp and Kenaf for the American farmers, is the only commercial, large-scale machine of its kind in North America. According to Perlowin, it would take at least 2 years, minimum, to duplicate the line. Hemp, Inc. and its whole team is committed to the American farmers and plans to continue spearheading a new clean, green American Agricultural and Industrial Revolution based on hemp and hemp products. The decortication and milling plant, is housed in a 70,000 square-foot warehouse (with a 6-inch cement foundation and a refrigerated section).

HEMP, INC.’s TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE
Hemp, Inc. (HEMP) seeks to benefit many constituencies from a “Cultural Creative” perspective thereby not exploiting or endangering any group. CEO of Hemp, Inc. (HEMP), Bruce Perlowin, is positioning the company as a leader in the industrial hemp industry, with a social and environmental mission at its core. Thus, the publicly-traded company believes in “upstreaming” of a portion of profit from the marketing of their finished hemp goods back to its originator, in which most cases will one day be the American farmer, cultivating natural, sustainable products as an interwoven piece of nature. By Hemp, Inc. focusing on comprehensive investment results—that is, with respect to performance along the interrelated dimensions of people, planet, and profits—our triple bottom line approach can be an important tool to support sustainability goals.
