Audible.com’s description of the audiobook is “Webster’s Dictionary gives the meaning of the word “miasma” as “an infection floating in the air; a deadly exhalation”. And in the opinion of Mr. Robert Ferguson, that description, though perhaps a little too flattering, on the whole summed up Master Roland Bean pretty satisfactorily. Until the previous day, Master Bean had served Mr. Ferguson in the capacity of office-boy. But there was that about Master Bean which made it practically impossible for anyone to employ him for long.Included in this collection are 19 of Wodehouse’s classic pre-World War II stories.”

“Fierce Pajamas: Selections from an Anthology of Humor Writing” Audiobook Now Available from Audible.com

Posted: 09 Apr 2011 04:01 AM PDT

Fierce Pajamas: Selections from an Anthology of Humor Writing is available as a digital audiobook from Audible.com. The title, provided by Random House AudioBooks and authored by David Remnick and Henry Finder, editors, has also become an American Consumer News favorite..

The digital audiobook Fierce Pajamas: Selections from an Anthology of Humor Writing, narrated by Byron Jennings, Julie Halston, and more, has received an average rating of 3.16 stars on Audible.com. The title has a running length of 5 hours and 51 min. The audiobook was first released in December 2001 and a sample is available for download.

Audible.com’s description of the audiobook is “When Harold Ross founded The New Yorker in 1925, he described it as a “comic weekly.” And although it has become much more than that, it has remained true in its irreverent heart to the founder’s description, publishing the most illustrious literary humorists of the modern era – among them Groucho Marx, James Thurber, S.J. Perelman, Mike Nichols, Woody Allen, Calvin Trillin, Steve Martin, and Dorothy Parker.This audio gathers together, for the first time, the funniest work of more than 30 New Yorker contributors. Pieces offer perspectives on the heights of fame, the depths of social embarrassment, and the ups and downs of love and sex. Such well-loved sketches as Thurber’s “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” take their place alongside light-hearted essays on food, film, and flights of fancy that follow an apparently simple premise to the point of no return, and sometimes well beyond. Here you will find large insights (Woody Allen: “Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only food: frequently there must be a beverage.”), and a great deal of healthy advice, including Steve Martin’s on memory and middle age: “Bored?

Posted: 09 Apr 2011 03:02 AM PDT

Twelfth Night is available as a digital audiobook from Audible.com. The title, provided by Naxos AudioBooks and authored by William Shakespeare, has also become an American Consumer News favorite..

With this in mind, sit back and enjoy this lively performance, featuring the voices of such esteemed Shakespearean actors as Stella Gonet (Viola) and Gerard Murphy (Sir Toby Belch), accompanied by a full cast.”

Electric Dreams Realised for Mayor of London

Electric Dreams Realised for Mayor of London

The new all-electric Peugeot iOn city car has finished off a whirlwind launch tour of the UK at London's City Hall, where Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, cast an approving eye over one of the first zero tailpipe emissions cars to go on general sale. The iOn, which has been showcased to customers and media at Peugeot Dealerships in Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, Edinburgh, Teeside and London in the last two weeks, has received universally favourable reviews from drivers and prompted much debate about how the country can best support electric motoring.

(Vocus/PRWEB) 9 April 2011

The new all-electric Peugeot iOn city car has finished off a whirlwind launch tour of the UK at London's City Hall, where Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, cast an approving eye over one of the first zero tailpipe emissions cars to go on general sale.

The iOn, which has been showcased to customers and media at Peugeot Dealerships in Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, Edinburgh, Teeside and London in the last two weeks, has received universally favourable reviews from drivers and prompted much debate about how the country can best support electric motoring.

H.M. Government is providing £250M funding for electric vehicles in the form of a £5,000 grant to buyers and funds to support charging infrastructure around the country but London's unique transport issues make electric motoring a particularly compelling proposition.

The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, said: "I want London to be the electric car capital of Europe, so I am delighted that 2011 sees manufacturers accelerating their efforts to bring this technology onto the roads. We're going to see electric cars playing an increasing role in pushing down pollution from transport in London as more drivers start to own and run these vehicles. This is why we are introducing the first city-wide electric vehicle scheme, Source London, in spring this year to provide more infrastructure and support."

Source London (http://www.sourcelondon.net) will double the number of current charge points in the capital from the time of its launch and will provide at least 1300 publicly accessible points by end 2013. London was in the first wave of Plugged in Places locations selected by the government to help their pioneering electric vehicle programmes.

Jon Goodman, MD of Peugeot UK, presented the iOn to Mr Johnson, said: "The Mayor has an acute understanding of the challenges for London's transport and was very interested to hear about how electric cars can fit into city life. On top of the environmental benefits, the Peugeot iOn needs no costly fuel to operate; it is exempt from the Congestion Charge and it is free to park in some London boroughs. That's a pretty compelling portfolio of savings for London's drivers."

Innovative Approach to Improve Users Online Security. Euro DB Automotive launches 10-Point security check and Online visitors Analytic.

Improved user experience through added security and Visitors Demographics revolutionises online classified in Australia

Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) April 09, 2011

Euro DB Group Pty Ltd recently introduced a number of innovative features through Euro DB Automotive website targeting improved security through fully automated 10-Point security check and Online Analytic.

This user-friendly classified car website provides easy to use one-stop shop for all that are in the used or new car market, supported by highly innovative features that also makes it one of the safest automotive classified websites.

Introduced 10-point security system ensures only genuine sales enquiries will ever get through to registered users selling their vehicles on Euro DB Automotive website.

"Many online classifieds are consistently targeted by organised criminal syndicates with intent of financial gain through deception, often succeeding with unwary private sellers that are unfamiliar of such criminal activities. Targeting both buyers and sellers through online classifieds by posing as genuine sellers whilst positing fake listing often copied from another online adverts with unrealistically low prices with intent to collect partial deposits or full payment to secure the goods. Another widely used method involves scammers posing as genuine buyers making generous offers for the advertised goods with preferences to use Pay Pal or Escrow money transfer to finalise the transaction. Once agreed, scammer will issue fake invoice statement followed by request to refund for overpayment often referred to as genuine error. Our 10-Point security check effectively eliminates such treats. In fact, since introduction it has intercepted and removed hundreds of such frauds that would otherwise be getting through." — Luisa Morone; Operations; Euro DB Group Pty Ltd

Another innovative product recently launched by Euro DB Automotive allows Private sellers and Used Car Dealers understand Advanced Demographics currently provided free of charge to all registered users.

"To date, many sites will adopt to "number of viewings" as promotional tool to enhance their reputation with undecided sellers, but often this tactics are irrelevant as any competitive sites relay on driving traffic on a global scale in order to stay competitive that is often represented by up to 45% of visitors from outside of targeted region. Our Euro DB Analytic takes care of that providing detailed mapped overview of unique visitor's. Operations And Editorial management," said Mark Prchal; Euro DB Group Pty Ltd.

"Euro DB Automotive ongoing online recognition through recognised search engines platforms continues to gain momentum. To date we have already surpassed many other long-term established classifieds. Our priority is to provide affordable means of vehicle and display advertising for the automotive industry and distribution throughout Australia. Our customers are telling us of excessive alternatives that can charge up to $12,000 for 100-Vehicle inventory per month through number of different methods. Our promise is to provide effective and innovative selling platform supported by fix price advertising structure that to date received many appraisals from within the industry," said Mark Kucera; MD Euro DB Group Pty Ltd.

Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention Saves US Health Care System Hundreds of Billions: 13.5 Million Afflicted by 2050

Posted: 09 Apr 2011 01:18 AM PDT

Alzheimer's Disease Prevention Saves US Health Care System Hundreds of Billions: 13.5 Million Afflicted by 2050

Palm Beach and Broward Counties, Florida have 120,000 diagnosed cases of Alzheimer's. This is enough people to fill the Orange Bowl stadium. The Brain Health Institute has opened a clinic for the early detection and prevention of Alzheimer's disease.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) April 9, 2011

Every 70 seconds someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. According to the Alzheimer's Association a treatment to delay onset of Alzheimer's disease by five years would save the health care system $447 billion.

In Delray Beach, the Brain Health Institute, a division of Brain Matters Research, announces that it is the first of its kind in the U.S. to use early diagnosis, prevention and treatment- attacking Alzheimer's on all fronts to prevent the onset of the disease.

In the past, if someone was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, there wasn't much they can do, aside from medication to try to slow the progress of the disease. Until now, there were no special centers such as the Brain Health Institute.

Dr. Mark Brody, a former academic neurologist and one of the nation's leading experts in Alzheimer's disease research heads the program as president and founder. The program utilizes similar treatments and protocols for stroke prevention that Dr. Brody helped develop. The Brain Health Institute is being hailed as the landmark clinic for the early detection and prevention of Alzheimer's disease, providing a ray of hope to families who are affected by the disease. Preventive therapy is being hailed as a necessity to fight this horrible disease; the Brain Health Institute recognizes that and is groundbreaking in its practice of research, prevention and treatment.

According to Dr. Brody, "We take you in and under our wing and look at your risk factors. We tailor a program to you. Technology has allowed us to do this in a comprehensive way- and remotely from the comforts of your own home. We set patients up with a wireless scale, wireless blood pressure cuff, sleep monitoring

devices, and an iPad loaded and tailored just to them with brain exercises, and personalized fitness and diet. We look over their shoulder and have their information streamed to us and tracked in the Microsoft Health Vault. Patients are set up with a video phone that serves as a direct link to the doctors. Patients get to 'see' their doctor everyday. It's like having their very own dedicated in-house doctor."

The Brain Health Institute has the distinction of providing the nation's very first comprehensive prevention protocol for STROKE and Alzheimer's disease/dementia, including research, early detection, prevention and treatment. No other center has what the Brain Health Institute does. The Brain Institute is getting national attention from the who's who of the most recognized people in the field, such as Dr. Wahlestedt, head of research at Scripps Institute in Jupiter, FL.

Chance Meeting Allows Title 1 School in Harlem to Develop Yearbook Program

Posted: 09 Apr 2011 01:18 AM PDT

Chance Meeting Allows Title 1 School in Harlem to Develop Yearbook Program

Entourage Yearbooks sponsors a New York public school's first yearbook program.

Princeton, NJ (PRWEB) April 9, 2011

Across the country, public school systems are making tough decisions about school closures, hiring freezes and student activity cuts. In New York City, the situation is no different. At P.S. 171 in Spanish Harlem, a plan for a new yearbook program was shelved once again for lack of funds.

"It was decided that the yearbook was a luxury item," said Jane Jung, a science teacher at the school. "There are a lot of things that come before a yearbook — textbooks and teacher salaries, for example. It's the last thing that they would consider spending money on right now."

A chance meeting with Elias Jo, owner of Entourage Yearbooks in Princeton, NJ, changed the fate of the yearbook program at P.S. 171.

"Elias is incredibly passionate about yearbook programs and was looking for a school that he could sponsor," said Jung. "The stars were aligned and we were able to form a great partnership."

"How many yearbook company owners do you run into every day?" joked Jung. "I really think it was destiny."

P.S. 171's first yearbook won't go to print for another couple of months, but the excitement is already palpable at the school. The positive impact of the yearbook program is evident, as well.

"The yearbook committee has been a great opportunity for students to learn design and leadership skills," said Jung. "Plus, the yearbook unifies the middle school by celebrating the year's work in print."

The first yearbook will primarily focus on the 8th grade class, which will move on to high school next year. Students in lower grades are already excited about the potential for future yearbooks.

"The 7th graders can't wait and are already brainstorming ideas for their potential book next year," said Jung.

P.S. 171 is a Title 1 school with nearly 1,000 students, all of whom qualify for the free lunch program. Many students come from home situations that lack stability and, for them, the school is a bastion of comfort, caring and consistency. Jung emphasized that for many of these students, the yearbook provides deeper meaning.

"Our yearbook won't just provide memories for the kids," said Jung. "They come from broken homes and have a lot going on in their lives. The yearbook is like a family album for many students."

About Entourage Yearbooks:

Entourage works with high schools, middle schools, elementary schools, colleges/universities, military groups and churches around the country to fulfill their yearbook publishing needs. They proudly offer the fastest turnaround time in the industry as well as affordable prices.

Red Funnel Celebrates 150th Anniversary with New-Look Website

Posted: 09 Apr 2011 01:17 AM PDT

Red Funnel Celebrates 150th Anniversary with New-Look Website

Isle of Wight specialist offers more than ever before at redfunnel.co.uk

Southampton, UK (PRWEB) April 9, 2011

Red Funnel has re-launched its website to coincide with a true landmark occasion – it's 150 years since Red Funnel, the original Isle of Wight ferry company first started trading in its current form.

The new website makes greater use of iconic flash based imagery to promote the Isle of Wight and inspire people to visit throughout the year. The ability to 'Like' content and post it directly to Facebook as well as Tweet the latest news items ensures better integration with the social networks.

A new 'Surprising Discoveries' section details over 100 fascinating facts about the Isle of Wight. Each fact is represented by a pin on a map which can be clicked to reveal the surprising fact. Visitors to the site can also add their own Isle of Wight discovery to the map.

New content has also been added to the Isle of Wight Guide section detailing towns and villages, places to visit, things to do and popular events such as the Isle of Wight Festival, Bestival, Cowes Week and the Garlic Festival. Features also include an Eating Out guide, a guide to local produce and a round-up of the best pubs and inns.

The holiday accommodation section now features over 140 properties including Isle of Wight hotels, B&Bs, self-catering cottages, holiday parks and camping & touring parks. All booking requests can be made online with savings of up to 50% on ferry travel if booked at the same time.

The new ferry travel section includes timetables, fares and travel information as well as details of connecting public transport services. Real-time vessel position information is available using Google mapping and is also broadcast via Twitter. Service updates are also published online and are available FREE to My Red Funnel members via SMS.

RSS and XML feeds covering news, service alerts, and timetables are available to developers wishing to integrate with third party websites.

Red Funnel continues to invest in the online booking channel with the recent launch of its new Travel Card product enabling frequent travellers to set-up and fully manage their accounts online. The ability to retrieve and amend bookings will be added to the site later this year. Tickets to the Isle of Wight's 18 premier attractions including Blackgang Chine, Osborne House, Carisbrooke Castle and the Isle of Wight Zoo and Tiger Sanctuary can be purchased online when making a ferry booking, many at discounted prices. Tickets to events such as Folkstation, Rhythm Tree Festival and Bestival are also available.

A new business solutions area has also been added for use by the Travel Trade and other B2B customers. The area details the wide range of services available including advertising and charter opportunities.

To mark its 150th anniversary, the Isle of Wight holidays specialist has commissioned a new book called 'Red Funnel 150', written by Keith Adams. It is available to purchase online and is part of a revamped section charting Red Funnel's colourful history from its roots in 1820, to its incorporation in 1861 through to the present day.

Notes to editors:

Launched originally in 1996, redfunnel.co.uk continues to evolve and is one of the largest, most comprehensive Isle of Wight visitor websites. It currently receives over 3 million visits per annum and handles 80% of all Red Funnel's vehicle and accommodation bookings.

Sarasota, FL (PRWEB) April 9, 2011

Accrisoft will be turning the tables in its booth(#KK) at the 2011 CMS Expo in Evanstown, IL, on May 2 – 4, encouraging attendees to use its software product Accrisoft Freedom right on the show floor. This unusual approach will allow visitors to immediately take control and use Accrisoft Freedom in real-life situations.

"We'll be turning the Exhibit Hall experience around," said Mark Zeitler, Accrisoft's Chief Technology Officer. "Accrisoft Freedom is an intuitive content management system that people can immediately understand and use successfully. We'll be giving them a chance to do that on the show floor. Unlike standard exhibit booths, Accrisoft's interactive approach makes the exhibit hall experience exciting and fun for participants."

Accrisoft Freedom is a web-based program that helps website developers build their businesses. It includes modules that allow developers to easily design fully functional websites for customers, and also has modules to help developers manage critical business functions like billing and customer support.

"Accrisoft Freedom can help move a small, home-grown website development business into a large and profitable commercial venture," said Zeitler. "This is a great opportunity for us to show exactly how well it works."

The 2011 CMS Expo Learning & Business Conference is hosted by the CMS Association. CMS Expo 2011 will mark the 5th CMS Expo. 2011 will be Accrisoft's first appearance at the conference.
