What do toothpaste, perfume, soap and ink have in common? The surprising answer is turpentine. This versatile byproduct of the pulp- and paper-making process is used in a wide range of everyday products. Consider a typical day: You wake up and brush your teeth. Then you take a shower using your favorite soap. After you get dressed, you apply some makeup or a spritz of cologne or perfume. You might not have realized it, but before you left home this morning, you used a number of products that contain a special form of turpentine that Domtar makes. Your perfume’s floral fragrance and your toothpaste’s minty freshness originated as crude sulfate turpentine, a USDA-certified, all-natural and renewable byproduct of the pulp- and paper-making process. In fact, many of the scents and flavorings in products you encounter every day are derived from byproducts of the pulp- and paper-making process. Click Read More below for additional information.

Oil edged up to about $49 a barrel on Monday as fewer drilling rigs were added in the United States, helping ease concerns that surging shale supplies will undermine OPEC-led production cuts. U.S. drillers added two oil rigs in the week to July 14, bringing the total to 765, Baker Hughes (BHGE.N) said on Friday. RIG-OL-USA-BHI Rig additions in the past four weeks averaged five, the slowest pace since November. Expectations that a long-awaited crude market rebalancing was under way was also bolstered by the sharp drop in U.S. crude inventories in the week to July 7.

A coalition of Sheboygan-area public employers has selected QuadMed as their new clinical partner for the Sheboygan InHealth Center, bringing a Wisconsin-founded, physician-led care model to employees and families across the community. The partnership unites Sheboygan County, the City of Sheboygan, the Sheboygan Area School District, and the Town of Sheboygan behind a shared goal: a more coordinated, data-driven approach to primary care that improves access, elevates outcomes, and bends the long-term cost curve for the people who serve this community every day. QuadMed was founded in 1991 by Harry V. Quadracci, father of Kathryn Quadracci Flores, when he hired a physician to provide care for his employees onsite at Quad (then known as Quad/Graphics) in Pewaukee, Wisconsin. He believed employers could bring employees better and more affordable healthcare than they were getting in the community. More than three decades later, QuadMed remains family-controlled and physician-led.
