C&B BOOKS, was started in 1995, by Carol Rogers & Brenda Piper.The motivation behind this book business, was the lack of affordable books written by black authors.  We decided to become an asset to our Youth and the African American community in a whole.  We offer our books for less then the major stores, we knew this would provide our readers with a wider variety of reading material. We have, titles for all ages in all catagories, fiction, non-fiction, spiritual, inspirational, educational etc.

New York, New York - Power Networking Series goes uptown to Baton Rouge

The Power Networking Business Series, AMAG...For The Conscious Professional, and Proud Poppa Magazine presented its 5th for an evening of Power Networking Series Uptown.

It is the goal of the Power Networking Series to create an economic infrastructure built on high trust and frequent networking events in the Harlem area. The recent changes in the Harlem community are setting the tone for Harlem to attract quality business owners from around the state to build an effective network to build a Black Business Base.

It was a great night of Networking, socializing and live jazz. Over 60 smalll business owners attended Power Networking Series Business Card Exchange after at Baton Rouge-Harlem's newest restuarant which is housed in a four story brownstone-on THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 28 2006 5-8pm. Power Networkers enjoyed networking from Thappy hour from 5-7, hors D'oeuvres, & live jazz starting at 8:00 All were welcomed and encouraged to stay later and enjoy the live jazz, more mingling and the warm decor.

About Baton Rouge:

Baton Rouge IS Located AT 458 WEST 145 Street Between Amsterdam and Convent Avenue. Baton Rouge phone number is 212-281-2336

Owner Joseph Barnes States " Once again our institutions serve our needs, we have four floors that can be utilized without interfering into the normal restaurant operations.

Various organizations, business and groups take advantage of our networking Thursdays, to get the word out about their services, new business opportunities or simply to meet like-minded professionals. Professionals are heartened that there is a place within the community that can offer such a service. Different institutions are highlighted weekly, be sure to call to discuss highlighting your business, institution or project.

Baton Rouge sits over Club New Orleans, in a beautifully renovated sandstone building, in the style of a New Orleans Bordello. There are feathers, Mardi Gras masks, mood lighting and trussed corsets aplenty. This is a room that will make anyone familiar with New Orleans sense a feeling of Down home. The music is contemporary, New Orleans Jazz and Zydeco. You can't eat the music but you will rave about the food.

They serve the best seafood gumbo that I have ever had in New Orleans or elsewhere in the United States, easily the best in New York City. The Pecan Crusted Catfish in Praline Sauce is tearfully memorable and the Slow Roasted Herb Crusted Lamb Chops with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach will transport you to another world.

Try the Hurricanes, which will remind you of Bourbon Street. The tableside flambe demonstration of Bananas Foster is not to be missed. We highly recommend.

In addition, The Power Networking Series has committed to bringing the Power Networking Series uptown to Harlem to continue the economic renaissance that Harlem is currently experiencing. It is the goal of the Power Networking Series to strengthen the human, economic, social, political, and spiritual ties uptown in Harlem to spur economic growth and create the social fabric the foster growth in small business.

George Fraser (www.frasernet.com), whom I consider as my mentor states "Business is about relationships" and "if you are not about the business of building relationships you have no business being in business".

The Power Networking Series will be presenting it's fifth in a series of Business Card Exchanges after Hours during the month of September. To be placed on our email list for upcoming events you may log on to www.powernetworkingseries.com and contact us. You may also email us at [email protected]
