In conjunction with the launch of the new site, Nexus also refreshed its logo with an updated design. According to Nexus CEO Dean Hansen, “The new website will provide a platform for us to share the solutions we are developing in response to the ‘what ifs’ that exist in today’s logistics industry. For example, shifts in fuel prices, modal capacity, currency exchange rates, environmental legislation and regulatory policy have significant impacts on the supply chains of our customers. Strategic and scalable programs like NexusHubs, Chicago Land Bridge, and NexusAdvantage allow customers to be better prepared for what the future may hold.” The Nexus website continues to provide customers access to tools that provide real-time inventory and shipment status information. In addition, the site features a new look and feel with enhanced communications capabilities. Service and career inquiry forms have been updated to improve ease of use for visitors. The new website was designed by Propeller Inc. of Arlington Heights. Propeller owner Tim Meyer comments, “Clear, direct communication and an improved user-friendly website interface make it easier for visitors to find answers and review Nexus’ unique strategies and services. Visitors are immediately greeted by a home page animation that allows them to directly link to industry-specific services related to their sector.” Just prior to the website launch, Nexus also introduced an updated, freshened logo. Hansen explains, “We were inspired to renew our logo to reflect our commitment to our clients to bring new solutions to their challenges. We have been around for a long time, but we are always adapting and refining our expertise in our ever-changing field of logistics.” Meyer adds, “The new logo and logotype reflect the strength and experience that Nexus brings to their client’s distribution challenges. We were able to maintain the essence of the original logo while updating the linking image and adding a subtle arrow pointing the way forward.” About Nexus: |
| GreenSoft Releases White Paper on Risk Management of REACH SVHC and RoHS Posted: 19 Apr 2011 04:30 AM PDT South Pasadena, CA, April 19, 2011 –(PR.com)– GreenSoft Technology, Inc., a leading provider of environmental compliance content management tools and services for the global electronics industry, has released a white paper titled “Risk Management of RoHS/REACH SVHC: Green Compliance for Electronics OEMs.” Complying with environmental regulations has become a challenging task for electronics OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). The list of regulations and directives continues to grow: EU RoHS, China RoHS, Korean RoHS, REACH/REACH SVHC, Battery Directive, Packaging Directive, etc. Companies also may have to respond to green requirements from large OEMs, such as IBM, HP or SONY. The challenge is that these regulations and directives frequently change. Each change increases the amount of restricted substances. Exemptions expire and new exemptions appear. The white paper lays out a series of recommendations, including collection of full material declaration (FMD) data for all components whenever possible. A supply chain policy should be established which requires suppliers to provide FMD data, or at the least, compliance certificates as part of the product shipment. The paper also recommends a scalable software solution, such as GreenSoft’s GreenData Manager-REACH, which is able to accommodate a mixture of FMD data and compliance certificates and roll up the product-level compliance status based on available information. The software solution should also be able to provide gap analysis for different compliance requirements on a BOM, such as part obsolescence. To read the white paper, visit GreenSoft at www.greensofttech.com. About GreenSoft Technology, Inc. GreenSoft Technology is a leading provider of environmental compliance content management tools and services for the global electronics industry. GreenSoft data management services streamline development cycles, cut procurement costs, and reduce risk. GreenSoft’s GreenData Manager-REACH software provides a sophisticated compliance management and analysis tool for manufacturers. GreenSoft is ISO 9001:2000 certified.

| Vintage Sound with a New Gritty Shine: A Band’s 4th Album Posted: 19 Apr 2011 04:29 AM PDT Crompond, NY, April 19, 2011 –(PR.com)– My Brothers Banned releases it’s 4th album this week. "Meet me in the Park" expands on their Beatle’s and Byrd’s reminiscent harmony laden songs with a grittier way. ‘Meet me in the Park" retains My Brothers Banned’s vocal melodic heart, with a mix of acoustic and electric instruments, as in previous releases "Banned Wagon" in 2010, "Everyone’s Banned" in 2009 and "Come with me" in 2006. The songs "Angels on the Bus" and "Keep running" would be in complete keeping with their past jangly mood and fun temper. The title track "Meet me in the Park," "Reached Right out," and "Your Ghost" show a completely new edge. They feature biting guitar riffs and a more direct raw vocal presence. The songs still have a vintage feel, a British invasion period bright side, but with an energized catchy bite. My Brothers Banned records all their albums in their own studios nestled in the woods just north of NYC. Greeting you at the door of "Off White Trash Records" Studio is their mascot and security system, Sky the xoloetscuintli. She is a elegant curious creature with smooth purplish skin and no hair. She will stand guard facing a room entrance or sleep at the feet of studio owner Lyle Puente. If she dislikes a song she has a habit of leaving the room. The soul of an ancient aztec critic lies within her heart. Sky found her way as the cover of last year’s single release "Katie Come Home." Luckily, she seems to approve of all tracks on "Meet me in the Park." "Meet me in the Park" is available Tuesday April 19th on itunes, amazon.com, cdbaby.com and most other digital outlets. The CD is available though cdbaby.com and amazon.com. Contact: Lyle Puente |

As with the other products in our MetaCare Enterprise™ EHR suite, MetaCare IntelliDocs can be integrated with any of our solutions."

| iCardiac Awarded Patent for Advanced Repolarization Analytics Posted: 19 Apr 2011 03:44 AM PDT iCardiac Awarded Patent for Advanced Repolarization Analytics Patent Confirms Novelty of Beyond QT Analysis for Characterizing Cardiac Safety of QT Prolonging Compounds Rochester, NY (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 iCardiac Technologies, Inc., a provider of next generation cardiac core lab services, announced today that it has received patent protection for its Beyond QT(sm) analysis methods for characterizing the cardiac safety of QT prolonging compounds. "This patent award is a milestone achievement for iCardiac as we continue to successfully bring the next generation of analytics to the ECG market," said Sasha Latypova, Executive Vice President. "Numerous pharmaceutical developers have already implemented Beyond QT into their clinical development programs and are using it, in combination with iCardiac's suite of leading service offerings, for improving precision, accuracy and resource efficiency in global cardiac safety studies." In October 2005, the FDA introduced a new guidance for industry (ICH E14) requiring the evaluation of pro-arrhythmic potential of new drugs by measuring the QT segment of ECGs collected in clinical trials. The dissatisfaction among pharmaceutical developers with the poor precision, high rate of false positives/negatives and high cost of the manual or semi-automated QT measurements has lead to efforts toward providing more advanced cardiac safety analytics.

| CBCJobs Reaches 1 Million Users — Becomes Major Player in Job Search Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:51 AM PDT CBCJobs Reaches 1 Million Users — Becomes Major Player in Job Search CBCJobs.com, a site that puts a social twist on job search, has grown its userbase to more than 1 million users as of March 2011. Billed as Job Search 3.0, CBCJobs lets employers and job seekers make personal connections through its network. Fullerton, CA (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 CBCJobs brings a fun twist to traditional job search, connecting job seekers and employers much like a social network would. Job seekers can add employers to their contacts, establish personal connections and ask questions about jobs. It's popularity has been on a meteoric rise – the site currently has over 1 million registered users. Considering it launched only 3 years ago, the figures are impressive. With CBCJobs, job listings often display the name of the actual person who posted it. A job seeker can then add this person to their network, introduce themselves, make an invaluable personal connection and boost their chances of landing a job, all before even applying. People often connect with friends through CBCJobs.com. "I was trying to reconnect with an old friend, googled his name and his CBCJobs profile popped up. I sent him a message and got a response the next day. Turns out he now lives in Maryland and is married" says one job seeker, who used CBCJobs to re-connect with a high school volleyball teammate. While CBCJobs is first and foremost a job search site, what makes it cool and interesting is that its users can interconnect, making the environment social, instead of one-sided and private. Back in early 2008, CBCJobs.com started out as a simple job search portal, but has since evolved into what can be best described as a mix between job search, business social network, classifieds and an applicant tracking system. While a relative newcomer to the big leagues of job search portals, it's already taken a significant chunk of traffic out of the multi-billion dollar online HR industry. Recruiters and HR professionals posting jobs are finding CBCJobs to be more useful than the big job boards. "CBC Jobs has been invaluable to me by bringing in a lot of strong, qualified candidates for each of the jobs I've posted." says Matt, a technical recruiter based in Los Angeles. Posting jobs is easy thanks to an intuitive interface. Considering the incredible growth that Facebook has been experiencing as of late, it's clear that users embrace the social aspect of the Internet. The concept of integrating job search and making it social seems to have been just what people were looking for, and CBCJobs seems to be on the right track to take full advantage of its current leadership position in the social job search niche. ### For the original version on PRWeb visit: http://www.prweb.com/releases/prweb2011/04/prweb5248424.htm |
| New Online Wine Store Removes the Guesswork from Enjoying Better Value and Higher Quality Wines Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:51 AM PDT New Online Wine Store Removes the Guesswork from Enjoying Better Value and Higher Quality Wines Vinopic.com launched in February 2011 to provide wine drinkers real insights into the true quality of each wine. By empowering consumers to select wines knowing exactly what's inside the wine they will be drinking, Vinopic aims to guide consumers to make quality-driven wine choices and get better value for money. (PRWeb UK) April 19, 2011 Vinopic – advancing wine choice http://www.vinopic.com Vinopic brings together world renowned health expert and author of The Wine Diet, Professor Roger Corder, and one of the UK's leading wine writers and critics, Rosemary George MW. These two experts assess and score every wine at Vinopic for the two key elements of wine quality: 1) Roger for higher "natural quality" by accounting for the relative richness in grape polyphenols; and 2) Rosemary for superior "drinking quality" by rewarding aroma, character, taste and pleasure. The focus is on what's inside the bottle and the quality factors you can and cannot taste. By highlighting the difference in what's actually in wine, and the important information that's not on wine labels, the aim is to steer consumers to drink better wines which are made in a skilled and caring way from the highest quality grapes. Vinopic offers well-structured wines that are richer in natural grape polyphenols, and which also taste great and are enjoyable to drink. Being able to find wines like these has often been difficult, but Vinopic has overcome this challenge to make available a range of some of the best wines from across the world. Chief Executive and Co-Founder, Santiago Navarro commented: "We launched Vinopic to bring much needed innovation to wine retailing. There was no way of selecting wine knowing what's really in the wine you're going to be drinking and whether you're likely to enjoy this wine. Vinopic changes this, allowing consumers to enjoy better wines knowing all the important information that's not on wine labels. This empowers them to choose wines that are well-structured, have been picked by an expert for their richness in grape polyphenols, and have been selected by a Master of Wine to taste better and be more enjoyable to drink." Rosemary George MW's review is presented to consumers as an Expert Grading – a score out of 20 points which highlights drinking pleasure. Professor Roger Corder's analyses are presented as an Intrinsic Quotient – an uncapped score, which is an extension of the heart rating used in his book, The Wine Diet. The Intrinsic Quotient highlights the relative richness in grape polyphenols, but also integrates a penalty for high alcohol levels as well as sulphites and sugar, and so provides a guide to the best wines to be enjoyed by those seeking quality. Co-Founder, Roger Corder commented: "Research shows that 32% of UK red wine drinkers choose wine because they believe it to be healthier than other alcoholic drinks. However, the trend towards higher alcohol and smoother, easy-drinking wines means that many widely available wines are far from being a healthy option. My research in Sardinia and southwest France showed how different the local wines were from typical mass-market wines in the UK, with much higher concentrations of grape polyphenols. Furthermore, the international success of my book, The Wine Diet, highlighted that consumers want to drink wines with these characteristics. But to my surprise and frustration, little has been done to make these polyphenol-rich wines available to wine drinkers, which is why I have now become personally involved in bringing these wines direct to consumers' dinner tables. My laboratory analyses ensure that the wines selected by Vinopic are the best choice for the discerning drinker." Santiago Navarro added: "21 million adults drink wine weekly or more frequently in the UK. These are the wine drinkers who can make a large positive impact on their wellbeing if they choose to drink less, but drink better quality. Vinopic takes an objective look at quality, and encourages the drive towards a healthier, Mediterranean style diet complete with a small glass or two of enjoyable, polyphenol-rich wine." Rosemary's Expert Grading and Roger's Intrinsic Quotient are combined with value for money, customer ratings, and popularity to create a Vinopic Score. This score, out of 100 points, allows consumers to make a quick and easy, direct comparison between wines knowing that all the key factors have been accounted for, including the all important value for money. Santiago Navarro commented: "The Vinopic Score empowers consumers to use a simple 100 point range to buy wines that are better from all the important aspects: pleasure, quality, value and popularity. Having a simple numerical system enables consumers to compare wines across different countries, regions, grape varieties, styles or other criteria with the peace of mind that higher Vinopic Score wines are overall better wines. This makes using the Vinopic Score the easiest way to buy wine in an informed and confident way knowing you are getting maximum value and quality for every pound spent on your wine." Clear information is provided alongside every wine for the units of alcohol and also the calories for each wine in different size servings. This ensures consumers are able to monitor their alcohol consumption, and also their calorie intake. A graphical presentation of the levels of procyanidins, total polyphenols as well as alcohol, sulphites and sugar is provided for each wine. This allows consumers to make an informed choice knowing the wines they will drink meet important quality criteria. Roger Corder commented: "People have the right to know what's in the wine they're drinking. We provide this information in an easy to follow graphical way, as we believe it steers consumers towards drinking better quality, polyphenol-rich wines. Research shows there is a demand for better information on wine labels and we are providing this through the information on the website." Vinopic's goal is to become the home of better wines and informed wine choice for those consumers looking to engage with quality wine in a positive and rewarding way. *** All readers of this press release qualify for £20 off their first Vinopic shop – for further details please go to http://www.vinopic.com/index.php/readeroffer *** # # # For the original version on PRWeb visit: http://www.prweb.com/releases/prweb2011/04/prweb5258214.htm |

The book contains 21 precepts including "Safeguard and Improve Your Environment" where its author L. Ron Hubbard stated: "Care of the planet begins in one's own front yard. It extends through the area one travels to get to school or work. It covers such places as where one picnics or goes on vacation. The litter which messes up the terrain and water supply, the dead brush which invites fire, these are things one need not contribute to and which, in otherwise idle moments, one can do something about." "…There are many things one can do to help take care of the planet. They begin with the idea that one should. They progress with suggesting to others they should." "The Way to Happiness" has been translated into 94 languages and 79 million copies have been distributed in 138 countries.

The quality content of MoneyNing.com has been featured on the NYTimes.com, Time.com, and USNews.com. Irvine, CA (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Personal finance blog MoneyNing.com discusses investing in dividend stocks and the process of developing income diversity in a recent post entitled What are Dividend Paying Stocks available at: http://MoneyNing.com/. Political wrangling over the multi-trillion dollar deficit has President Obama and the Congress debating the health and future of Social Security. CNNMoney.com stated in a recent article that "battle lines over Social Security are being drawn" and concluding that, "both sides generally agree that Social Security needs to be reformed." The current debate over the fate of Social Security has sparked renewed interest in retirement planning as many Americans are concerned that they simply will not have the resources to allow for retirement. Some are beginning to ask themselves if they'll have enough to retire and if not, what they need to do to improve their financial position during their golden years. A recent post on personal finance blog MoneyNing.com addresses this issue. The post What are Dividend Paying Stocks explains how investing in dividends can create income diversity and help shore-up ones financial future. Miranda Marquit, the posts author states, "Someone who is interested in building an alternative income stream, especially those interested in income diversity, can benefit from developing a portfolio that includes dividend paying stocks. Marquit goes on to explain, "These stocks can also be a good choice for someone who wants good value, and wants to see reasonable growth without a great deal of risk." And creating growth with limited risk is an ideal approach for those who have delayed their retirement planning or for those who need to add another income stream in order to reach their retirement goals.

| Merk Hard Currency Fund Surpasses Half a Billion in Assets Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:49 AM PDT Merk Hard Currency Fund Surpasses Half a Billion in Assets As investors embrace the currency asset class, The Authority on Currencies™ leads the way Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Merk Investments LLC, manager of Merk Funds℠ announced today that its flagship fund, the Merk Hard Currency Fund℠ (MERKX), has surpassed $500 million in assets under management. The Fund, which was launched in May 2005, is a no-load, open-end currency mutual fund that seeks to protect against the decline of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. "Concerns about the U.S. dollar, inflationary pressures and mounting U.S. debt have helped to highlight the need for investors to diversify outside of the greenback," explains Axel Merk, President and CIO of Merk Investments. "Beyond the woes of the U.S. dollar, currencies in general have historically exhibited low correlations with traditional asset classes, and as such, may provide diversification benefits and an attractive risk/return profile for investors' portfolios," continues Merk.

The Merk Hard Currency Fund is one of very few funds in the space that has a track record spanning more than five years. We also offer the Merk Absolute Return Currency Fund® (MABFX), launched in 2009, which follows a strategy that seeks to profit from currency trends regardless of the direction of the U.S. dollar," explains Kieran Osborne, co-portfolio manager of the Fund.

The Merk Funds are a suite of transparent no-load currency mutual funds that do not typically employ leverage, consisting of: the Merk Hard Currency Fund℠ (MERKX), the Merk Asian Currency Fund® (MEAFX), and the Merk Absolute Return Currency Fund® (MABFX).

| Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:48 AM PDT Golf Digest America's Best Clubfitter Russ Ryden of Fit 2 Score LLC Updates Fit2Score.com with 40 Driver Shaft Profiles Using the Fit 2 Score LLC patent-pending Shaft Elasticity and Inertia (EI) Measuring Instrument invented and manufactured by Russ Ryden, 40 driver shaft bend profiles representing nine manufacturers are now available on Fit2Score.com, compliments of the Fit 2 Score team and its 12 fitting associates throughout the United States. Carrollton, TX (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 "It has been quite an undertaking over the past 18 months to invent, design and manufacture this instrument and then collect the data on all these shafts. The technology to do this was previously only available with equipment used by shaft manufacturers. Now the club fitting industry has a way to compare shaft performance across all manufacturers. The golfer is the real winner in the equation as top club fitters across the nation now have a better understanding of shaft performance as it relates to the golfer's swing characteristics," says Russ Ryden, President and Owner of Fit 2 Score LLC. For his invention, Ryden was honored with the 2009 Technology Award by the Association of Golf Clubfitting Professionals and he is certified by them as one of 12 Master Club Fitters in the USA. Driver shaft performance data is now available for these custom shaft brands at http://www.Fit2Score.com – Aldila, Fugikura, Graphite Design, Matrix, Miyazaki, Mitsubishi, Nunchuk, True Temper and UST. The most comprehensive data is available for Mitsubishi and UST. The section is updated regularly as new shafts are analyzed, measured and posted to the site. Russ Ryden of Fit 2 Score was also recently named a Golf Digest America's 100 Best Clubfitter. Due to reader requests 2011 is the first time ever in its 60 year history that Golf Digest announced the best 100 places to get a proper club fitting. They firmly endorse getting a proper fitting before purchasing golf clubs and tout it as "Where golfers should go to find instant improvement." According to Ryden, 'We very much appreciate this honor, especially since we have put forth a great deal of time, intellectual and other capitol to move the art and science of club fitting forward and we are dedicated to this pursuit." The Golf Digest process for determining America's100 Best Clubfitters involved three criteria: 1) The location must be open to the public, 2) There must be access to clubs made by top manufacturers, 3) The fitter must be nominated by one of the following: one of 900-plus raters of America's 100 Greatest Golf Courses, golf association executives, top teachers or other industry sources. Golf Digest also asked facilities to complete a survey detailing their resources, expertise and methodology. At Fit 2 Score LLC fitting is a service, not just a step in the process of selling clubs. Quite often an adjustment to clubs can facilitate more consistent shot making. Using the most up-to-date fitting equipment available – Flightscope 3D Doppler radar and high speed video, Fit 2 Score tracks the flight of both the club head and ball. Loft, lie, weight, balance and shaft geometry are tested until the perfect fit is found. This informed performance testing finds the best fit to the golfer's swing. Then clubs are precisely built or adjusted to promote a consistent, repeatable swing that reduces dispersion and maximizes distance, resulting in greater accuracy and lower scores. Visit http://www.Fit2Score.com for an extensive review of the fitting approach, systems and technology used at Fit 2 Score LLC. Custom head brands offered at Fit 2 Score include Adams, Alpha, Miura, Scratch, Tour Edge Exotics and Wishon. Custom shaft brands include Aerotech, KBS, Mitsubishi, Nippon, Rifle and UST. Branded clubs available include Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, Mizuno, Nike, Ping, Taylor Made and Titleist. Ryden does club fittings by appointment at the Golden Bear Golf Center in Carrollton, TX and at Bob Moore's Sports Center in Colleyville, TX.

He invented and manufactures the patent-pending Shaft Elasticity and Inertia (EI) Measuring Instrument.

PTHelpForHaiti.org/OTHelpForHaiti.org are dedicated to "Build Haiti Better" and have sent many volunteer physical and occupational therapists to Jacmel, Haiti, since the earthquake. In 2010, EIM donated over $2,000 to Neighborhood Engagement and this money was used to fund PTHelpForHaiti.org/OTHelpForHaiti.org's physical and occupational therapists in Jacmel Haiti. The Community Coalition for Haiti (CCH) operates the clinic in Jacmel with assistance from organizations such as Evidence In Motion and PTHelpForHaiti.org/OTHelpForHaiti.org. This clinic is staffed by a full-time American physical therapist, Haitian rehab technicians, transporters and interpreters, and volunteers from both the United States and Canada. Employing Haitan workers allows this clinic to contribute to sustainable solutions in this earthquake ravaged area. The Jacmel clinic does not charge for equipment or treatment and is 100% donor supported. The Jacmel clinic sees an average of 25-40 patients per day and provides a full spectrum of physical therapy services. Donations to the Jacmel clinic include much needed shoes, medical supplies and equipment. The clinic recently moved from a tent, where it was housed for one year, to a facility that it shares with two primary care physicians. These physicians are part of a collaborative effort with CCH and PT Development, necessitated by the recent cholera epidemic. Many EIM students have volunteered at the Jacmel clinic, such as graduate from the Orthopaedic Residency program, James Grace. "The people of Haiti will not be without the need for rehab services for quite some time. Word is spreading and people travel long distances in search for hope and relief from pain, weakness, and limited mobility," recounts Grace. "I encourage more clinicians to be a part of this movement, and I count myself fortunate to have had the opportunity to help." EIM Executive Program in Private Practice Management students have and will make the trip to volunteer in Haiti as well. Karl Kleinpeter, DPT, EIM Executive Program graduate, volunteered in 2010 and Jennifer Gabmoa, DPT, OCS, MTC, EIM Executive Program graduate and instructor, plans to volunteer at the Jacmel clinic this April. Additionally EIM owners, John Childs, PT, PhD, MBA, OCS, FAAOMPT, Larry Benz, PT, DPT, and Tim Flynn, PT, PhD, OCS, FAAOMPT, have all spent time volunteering in Haitian physical therapy clinics over the past year. "Since the earthquake we have made giant strides in helping Haitian patients. Evidence In Motion's donation campaign will assist the Jacmel Clinic in handling current challenges," states Larry Benz, PT, DPT, EIM Owner, and founder and partner of the Jacmel clinic. "We need continued monetary support to resupply durable medical equipment, continue to send volunteers to the clinic, and hire and pay both Haitian and expatriate staff. Companies like EIM are the ones that keep the Jacmel Clinic running."

| Kaminski Auctions Chinese Art, Porcelain, Ceramics and Furniture Top Sellers at Asian Auction. Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:36 AM PDT Kaminski Auctions Chinese Art, Porcelain, Ceramics and Furniture Top Sellers at Asian Auction. Album of sketches by Wu Guanzhong sold for $255,000, Huanghuali furniture sold for $87,000, Ming Dynasty fish bowls sold for $55,000, Chinese table screen sold for $30,000. Boston, MA (Vocus/PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Hot on the heels of Asia week in NYC, Kaminski Auctions of Beverly, Massachusetts held its spring Asian auction on April 8th and 9th at 5pm. Ben Wang, Kaminski's Asian specialist, had put together an important collection of Asian porcelain and ceramics, some dating to the Ming dynasty, as well as some rare pieces of Chinese furniture and art. The audience was filled with Asian collectors from New York, as well as many well-known Asian dealers from China. Internet and phone bidding from Hong Kong and China was brisk and active throughout the auction. As expected, the top lot of the sale, which brought $255,000.00, was an important album of sketches by Wu Guanzhong, originally presented as a gift to Alice Boney, the prominent American oriental art dealer. Miss Boney, known as "the doyenne of Oriental art," was a noted advisor to museums and collectors of Chinese and Japanese art. Totaling 10 leaves of sketches made with ink on paper, the album depicts the water country scenes of southern China which Marco Polo once described as " the Venice of the Orient. " Two items of Huanghuali furniture also reached high prices. An altar table with scroll–form spandrels and side panels with scrolling dragons from a California estate brought $64,000 and a pair of 17th-18th century Huanghuali horseshoe chairs brought over $87,000. There was heavy competition from the internet and phone bidders for two Ming Dynasty fish bowls. One Wucai fish bowl marked with a Wanli mark under the rim and decorated with fish, lotus flowers, and waterweeds sold for $55,000. While the other,a massive blue and white porcelain fish tank sold for $52,000. The two lots that brought unexpected prices were a miniature 18th-19th century jade screen on stand depicting a court scene etched in gold which fetched $23,000 from a Hong Kong collector, while a carved 19th century Chinese ivory and rosewood table screen with elaborately carved figures sold for $30,000. Kaminski Auctions is planning their August Asian auction for August 18, 19, 20th at their new auction gallery at 117 Elliott Street, Beverly, Ma.

| Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:36 AM PDT The New Orleans-Based Event Restroom Announces Its New Flagship Luxury Restroom Trailer, Called The Boutique Trailer, At The Zurich PGA Tournament 2011 The Boutique Trailer is based on the smaller prototype boutique trailer that was introduced last year and will feature stainless steel urinals, hands free toilets, flat screen televisions, vessel sinks, air conditioning, and other luxurious amenities. New Orleans, LA (Vocus/PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Spring festival time has arrived and planning is in high gear. Many outdoor events, parties, and festivals will take place in the coming months that need event equipment to make them wonderful experiences. Such activities as music festivals, outdoor weddings, sporting events, and family reunions are plentiful and often draw large crowds. While most everyone in these crowds may have their favorite type of music, food, and drink, there is one thing they ALL share in common—the moment when everyone has to "use the facilities". Too many outdoor events offer nothing more than unimpressive event facilities, or restroom trailers, that are poorly maintained and very uncomfortable for a patron to use. Fortunately, Event Restroom has worked hard to provide porta potty and other portable toilets that are clean, regularly maintained, safe, and comfortable to use. The New Orleans-based, Event Restroom, has just announced that it will introduce its new flagship luxury restroom trailer, called the Boutique Trailer, at the Zurich PGA Tournament 2011. This deluxe trailer is based on the smaller prototype boutique trailer that was introduced last year and will feature stainless steel urinals, hands free toilets, flat screen televisions, vessel sinks, air conditioning, and other luxurious amenities. Event Restroom just signed a new agreement to build a state of the art luxury trailer line for 2011 and 2012; the purpose is to provide as much comfort possible when the need to use a comfort station at an outdoor event arises. The new trailers will provide the most luxurious experience when using a portable restroom at an outdoor event. One of its main features is that everything is hands free. Restroom patrons don't need to touch anything. Event Restroom has tried to create an outdoor facility that is as germ free as possible. Event Restroom provides clean and comfortable solutions when patrons must answer "the call of nature". The company also provides much more to ensure that guests at an outdoor event are comfortable using their portable facilities as though they were in their own home or another indoor facility. The company, for example, also makes shower trailers available for camps, fairs, military exercises, television and film productions, sporting events, and disaster response. These shower trailers provide tankless water heaters, heat and air conditioning, private dressing areas, sink cabinets, and mirrors. Planning an event of any kind can be a stressful and time consuming experience. When planning a wedding or a music festival, the number of vendors to contact seems endless. Event Restroom can help you economize your time by providing event rentals such as tables, chairs, tents, and fences. About Event Restroom: Event Restroom is a New Orleans-based and family-owned company founded in 2005. Although the company was founded six years ago, the Young family which owns it has been in the equipment rental business since the early 1980s. They provide portable event rentals to clients in the states of Louisiana, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and their surrounding states. The company, however, can provide shower trailers and restroom trailers nationwide. In the six years since its founding, Event Restroom has grown in response to demand from the film industry and from disaster response teams. They have also provided services to wedding events, sporting events, music festivals, and construction projects. Whether it's providing portable toilets or luxury trailers, Event Restroom has taken an innovative approach in allowing a client to choose from several options for their event. The company is attentive to the needs to the client by making sure that all equipment is well maintained and kept clean during the event. Event coordinators are always happy to work with you in determining the type of equipment you need for your event. # # # For the original version on PRWeb visit: http://www.prweb.com/releases/prwebevent-restroom/luxury-restroom-trailers/prweb8271494.htm |
| SmartBox Web Marketing Announces Availability of New Website Management Tools for Clients Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:36 AM PDT SmartBox Web Marketing Announces Availability of New Website Management Tools for Clients Updating your site regularly with new and fresh content is a guaranteed way to increase your rankings with Google, Yahoo and Bing. While it used to be expensive and cumbersome to make changes on the fly, now it can be done by a non-technical person in literally seconds. New Albany, IN (Vocus/PRWEB) April 19, 2011 SmartBox Web Marketing has just launched a new self-directed website management tool for their clients. The tools, with very little instruction, allow a doctor or staff member to update their websites on their own and in their own time, without any knowledge of HTML or programming. Doctors are becoming increasingly advertising savvy. Many have done the research and discovered that internet marketing can achieve amazing results. Many have had websites built for the types of services they wish to target, such as dentures, implants and other specialties, and they have found that after some optimization the public is calling their office from ads on their websites. The tactic has worked so well that many dentists now have more than one website, each one targeting a different niche in the dental market. While online marketing is well worth the investment it typically takes a lot of time. Most doctors know what they want their websites to say. They are, after all, the experts. But by the time their copy gets passed to a webmaster and that person puts it up on the website a week or more has passed. "We've literally seen doctors wait months for changes to be made on their websites," said Colin Receveur, founder and CEO of SmartBox Web Marketing. Updating your site regularly with new and fresh content is a guaranteed way to increase your rankings with Google, Yahoo and Bing. While it used to be expensive and cumbersome to make changes on the fly, now it can be done by a non-technical person in literally seconds. "Search engines are very hungry for good content, and this is how you feed them," jokes Receveur. "If you can edit a simple Word document on the computer," said Receveur, "you can now update your own site. It's easy and fast plus it saves a lot of time and expense, and in today's internet world a little bit of lost time can add up to a lot of lost revenue." This move towards the self-management of websites also means that marketing efforts can be tested and altered almost instantly for a better return on a doctor's marketing efforts. "We've always had a way to determine the exact ROI on web marketing efforts for any dentist we work with," Receveur pointed out. "But now doctors can instantaneously update their website at the click of their mouse. An easy self-directed change to their site means the testing of ideas becomes a click. That's especially important if they are doing pay-per-click advertising." SmartBox's new system also integrates mobile optimized websites (MOW) as well. "When you update your normal site, your MOW is sync'd automatically. It's really an incredible technology that also allows for GPS enabled websites and Click-To-Call functionality," Receveur says. "And if the doctor doesn't want to fool with updating his own site," Receveur continues, "it's no problem. We guarantee a 48 hour turnaround time on all updates we do for our clients, and even many of them are done within 24 hours. Our goal is not only to provide our client's with the latest technology and marketing tactics available, but also to provide them with the best customer service, bar none."

| Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:35 AM PDT Insider Tips Inc. Announces Two World-Class Great Lakes Sailing Races Head To Mackinac Island, Michigan in July — Two Weeks! Two Great Lakes! Two Historic Races! Insider Tips Inc's popular website, Mackinac Island Insider Tips, details two of the most historic Great Lakes sailing events to take place in July. The 103rd Chicago to Mackinac Race begins on July 16. The second race, the Port Huron to Mackinac Race, is in its 87th year and begins on July 23. Sailors and tourists travel from around the world to be part of these two world-class fresh water sailing events. The beauty is both races end at Mackinac Island a tiny island in northern Michigan where over 3000 sailors will convene after both races. It's truly a sailor's dream vacation to be on beautiful Mackinac Island during these two weeks in July. Mackinac Island, MI (Vocus/PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Marcia Dunnigan and Kathy Petersen of Insider Tips Inc., founders of the popular Mackinac Island Insider Tips website, are providing details about two Great Lakes Sailing Races that will take place beginning on July 16 with the destination being Mackinac Island located in northern Michigan where Lake Michigan and Lake Huron converge. While any time in the summer is a great time to experience this beautiful scenic island there is no better time to visit than during these two magnificent sailing events. The Chicago To Mackinac Race The Chicago to Mackinac Race, nicknamed "The Mac", is one of the most prestigious sailing races in the world. Sailors come from as far away as Hong Kong, New Zealand and Australia to take part in this 333 mile race across Lake Michigan. This year's race will include up to 375 sailboats competing in multiple classes with sizes ranging from 30 to 80+ feet. The race fleet is manned by over 3,000 sailors. This is the oldest and the largest fresh water sailing race in the world and it takes a hearty crew and a lot of stamina to complete this rugged course. Kathy Petersen states, "Anyone who thinks freshwater sailing lacks the challenge of an ocean race has never been sailing on Lake Michigan during one of her gales, which can come up suddenly. Seasoned ocean-sailors love to take part in this Great Lakes sailing race, because of the fact that the challenges offered them are different, and therefore exciting for even the most experienced of sailors." The Port Huron to Mackinac Sailing Race The weekend after the Chicago to Mackinac race the island's horizon will once again be filled with sails as the world's second largest fresh water sailing event, Bayview to Mackinac begins, but this time sailing on Lake Huron from Port Huron, Michigan which is near Detroit. Dubbed the All Michigan Sailboat Race, the Bayview to Mackinac is expected to include over 200 boats leaving the marina in Port Huron on Saturday July 23rd with over 100,000 viewers cheering the sailors off. The first sailboat is expected to reach Mackinac Island on early Monday morning. Marcia Dunnigan exclaims, "There are few sights on Mackinac Island as memorable as the early morning sun illuminating the sails of the race fleet, as it glides into view." There are two different courses in the Bayview to Mackinac race. One is the Cove Island route, it is about 298 miles in length and is usually traversed by the boats over 50 feet. Boats go through the waters of Lake Huron to the Georgian Bay in Canada. This course is the most challenging of the two because of the winds and the storms that can happen off the Canadian shore of Lake Huron. The second is the Shore Line course which is viewable from the Michigan shoreline and is designed for the boats that are 27 to 40 feet long. Fun on Mackinac Island People come from all over the world to witness these two famous Great Lakes sailing races, so reservations must be made early to ensure your lodging on small Mackinac Island. For the best views of the finish line at Round Island Lighthouse the beautiful Iroquois Hotel is a premier choice. Conde' Nast awarded the Iroquois its 2010 Conde' Nast Readers Choice Award as the one of the top small hotels in the United States. There are also wonderful lodging choices that include Bed & Breakfasts, small hotels or the historic Grand Hotel resort. If you are a boater there are excellent marinas in Cheboygan, Mackinaw City or St. Ignace. Don't count on Mackinac Island's marina for it will be packed with all the boats that are participating in the races. Visitors to the island during this time will also find they can hobnob with the crews of the participating boats, especially when staying at the Chippewa Hotel which is next door to the Mackinac Island marina. While waiting for the boats to arrive there is much to do on historic Mackinac Island where no cars are allowed. Useful information for planning a Mackinac Island vacation especially during these two sailing events can be found at http://www.mackinac-island-insider-tips.com where lodging, museums, hiking trails, restaurants and other activities are listed. ### For the original version on PRWeb visit: http://www.prweb.com/releases/prweb2011/4/prweb8258934.htm |

During this event, the keynote speaker, Guy Adami, issued the stern warning that gold and silver are in strong bull market trends and anyone betting against those two commodities will suffer the painful losses. New York (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 The CME Group, a diverse derivatives marketplace, hosted its annual Gold and Silver Dinner on April 14, 2011. Andy Hecht, commodities options expert working closely with the Sovereign Society, attended the CME dinner as a highly respected industry peer.

| Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:34 AM PDT Atlanta-Based Author LONZ COOK Debuts Anticipated Novel at Book Release Party to be Held at TWO Urban Licks Restaurant in Midtown From the popular author of the national selling paperback 'A Choice to Yield' comes a nontraditional action-packed love story that triggers an IRS investigation (Sterling and Ross Cambridge House Publishers) Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 19, 2011 Emerging novelist Lonz Cook will debut his third paperback, newly released today in bookstores titled "When Love Evolves," in a special book release celebration at TWO urban licks restaurant in Midtown (820 Ralph McGill Boulevard, N.E., Atlanta, GA, 30306) on Saturday, April 30, 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The evening will feature brief remarks from Cook, prizes, hor d'oeuvres and a champagne toast. His new book—published by Sterling and Ross Cambridge House publishers—is a love story that sparks an IRS investigation. The distinct plot unfolds in Richmond, VA, and although categorized as a romance/drama, the book strikes the interest of non-traditional romance readers as it crosses gender lines with added action, passion, and investigation. Cook, also the popular author of the paperback "A Choice to Yield," is a retired Marine now residing in Atlanta. Known to be an egotistical, hard-yelling, gun-carrying disciplinarian, Cook actually writes stories of the heart versus war. His new book brings to life the story of a con-artist husband who launders money with the mob and scams millions until an informant sparks an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) investigation. Simone Stephens, the CEO of a major conglomerate, marries Stefan Stephens, a smooth debonair man, who swindles control of her company's assets. He cons his wife with a successful corporate façade and wins her admiration masking his true intentions. Trust, love, and commitment aren't enough when Simone lands in an uncompromising position with the IRS, FBI, and crime world because of her conniving husband. Stefan soon abandons his wife shortly after company assets are frozen during the blast of IRS investigators. She struggles to spare her company and calls her sister for assistance. The two recruit the support of Rodney—a lover Simone earlier rejected—to assist in their efforts while murder, intrigue and rage strikes.
