Kids Become Safer When Parents Go Beyond Stranger Danger: New Book And Program Give Parents Tools To Train Children Correctly

Dayton, OH (PRWEB) March 3, 2005

Child Safety Expert and police veteran, Glen Evans, has launched an exciting new parent resource book designed to help parents worry less about their kids. Evans developed the children's safety ASSERT Kids program, which stands for Active and Simple Safety Education Response Training.

Recent surveys indicate parents number one concern is child safety and health. Most parents admit to being frustrated because they believe they are not preparing their kids well enough.

Stranger Danger information is readily available, but there is a growing movment away from this information because it has been deemed incomplete.

Glen Evans states, "Business and industry has invested millions of dollars in training their employees because they want they best results... they train them because they want them to know what to do... Parents should be no different. Parents should go beyond Stranger Danger and begin the personal safety training process with their kids, the cost of not training them is too high."

In the new book, "How To Create Incredibly Safe Kids!" parents learn the secrets to helping their kids recognize dangerous people and techniques to train an automatic response into them, essentially programming them to know exactly what to do if confronted by a "stranger" or bully.

Then new release of the printed manual includes a Mom's safety manual digital download, and an Amber Alert 12 Year Child ID Card or parents, teachers or police officers can download a copy of the book.

Wittig's accolade, America's Top Doctor - Cancer, exemplified by his father, Paterson Police Chief Wittig's law enforcement career

Wittig's accolade, America's Top Doctor - Cancer, exemplified by his father, Paterson Police Chief Wittig's law enforcement career

A successful tie that binds: James Wittig and his son, Dr. James C. Wittig credit their Paterson roots with providing them with the passion, dedication and commitment needed to succeed in their chosen field of work. Their community based professions range from protecting to healing, preparing to educating and focusing on what is best for the situation at hand - whether on-call, case by case, or for one moment at any given time.

Paterson, NJ (PRWEB) December 5, 2010

Holding 41 years on the Paterson Police force thus far, Chief James Wittig understands daily the challenges and triumphs of a growing community. (Paterson is just 8.4 square miles and is one of the most densely populated cities in New Jersey (pop. 150,000) Like many people living, working, educating and rearing their children in Paterson, Chief Wittig was also born, raised and started his own family in Paterson.  Upon graduating from Paterson Central High School in 1965, he worked at the National Biscuit Company (Nabisco) for three years, first in the Shipping Department then elected as Shop Steward before deciding to go into the police academy. This decision was based partially on an uncle who was an attorney and encouraged him to go into law enforcement. Although his new wife was a bit skeptical at first on his decision because of the dangers, it became apparent that it was both flexible at times and obviously offered excellent opportunities for advancement. 

Dr. James C. Wittig on the other hand, an orthopaedic surgeon, is also 'on-call, ready to handle the case of the day' but in the field of medicine. As Chief of Orthopaedic Oncology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City, he attributes much of his dedication and passion for research and service to what he experienced growing up in Paterson. The close ties with St. Joseph's Medical Center - as a part time orthopedic oncologist and volunteering with a multitude of charity organizations - and his rearing to 'give back where needed' has motivated his quest for better research and solutions to offering care to those less fortunate. Over the last nine years in practice, Dr. Wittig has volunteered his surgical skills and knowledge to help cure many children in Paterson who have been afflicted with rare sarcomas as well as saved their limbs. Today, many of those children have grown up to be healthy adults. "I am just so privileged to have been able to treat so many children in need and give back to the town where I was born and grew up!" notes Dr. Wittig, "It was my father who always taught me to give back to the community of Paterson. I am forever grateful for the values that my father has instilled within me and for the opportunities I have had to use my skills to help so many children in need. I owe it all to my father and mother."

Through the years, Police Chief Wittig embodied the makings of a leader by enrolling in both mandatory and voluntary training classes ranging from the United States Secret Service Dignitary Protection program; Hostage Negotiations; Qualified Gambling Expert (recognize and testify gambling discrepancies); Drug Unit Commander; and enrolling in other job specific management courses. Wittig moved up the ranks from police officer to Sergeant then Lieutenant onto Captain of the Narcotics Bureau, Deputy Chief, and Acting Chief in 2005 and then appointed Chief of Police on January 12, 2006. His experiences and various courses not only prepared him for years of service but obviously prove his unfailing dedication to a city that has given him the strength and an opportunity to make strides in the way police work is done today. Currently, Chief Wittig is a member of the Catholic Charities; Trustee, Straight and Narrow; Passaic County Motion Picture Association, International Association of Police Chiefs, NJ Police Chiefs Association, Police Benevolent Association (PBA); Superior Office Association (SOA) and ASIS International. He is also Board Certified in Security Management.

Over the past few years, the advent of newer technologies has made for a stronger work force as well as foster stronger bonds with agencies such as the FBI, DEA, U. S. Marshal Service, NJ State Police, the Passaic County Prosecutors Office and Sheriff's Office. These connections also enable specially trained personnel within the department to join task forces to fight various crimes. In addition, Chief Wittig has initiated and partnered with the "Urban Enterprise Zone" to add various computer technology to patrol cars and a wireless camera system throughout the city; added a computer-aided dispatch system; 9 11 Phone System; Red Light Camera System, License Plate Reading System and has helped to facilitate the "Emergency Response Team" and K-9 units. Another new advancement that Chief Wittig touts is the "Gunshot Detection System" - Highly sensitive cameras installed on the streets that can single out a gunshot and turn the cameras in the direction of the sound to capture on video and report the location of the gun activity. Not only is the response time increased but the scenario recreated for crime solving. The crime rate in Paterson has significantly dropped due to the various resources that are now available.

On the home front, Chief Wittig spent his free time as a Boy Scout Leader, and was also a Softball and Baseball coach. Although his profession took him away from many family activities, his work ethic, passion and commitment to Paterson was understood and instilled in his children from the very beginning. "I owe much of my successes to my wife who carried the weight of home life often alone. While I was holding down the 'fort' at work, she was doing the same at home and the fruits of her labor are evident in our children's successes," notes Chief Wittig.

Although at times these two worlds - law enforcement and medicine - can seem "miles apart," the bottom line is that a "pulse" of a city is as strong as the people that are brought together by it, serve within it and reach out with their roots to provide a better future for those around them.

Animal Rescue: How to Save a Dog When A Disaster Strikes

Animal Rescue: How to Save a Dog When A Disaster Strikes

Hundreds of animals are lost during natural disasters and many are never found again. Simple animal rescue basics can save a pet.

(PRWEB) May 22, 2005

Disasters happen all over the United States - earthquakes, floods, landslides, hurricanes, tornados and severe winter storms. Animals can be saved but it takes some careful planning says Amanda St. John, Founder of MuttShack Animal Foster and Animal Rescue Foundation.

Hundreds of pets get lost every year when disasters strike. During the confusion dogs, cats can travel great distances from home. They either run away trying to escape the chaos, or may be rescued by a Good Samaritan and taken to another safer location far away. Even animals who stay in the home during the day may get trapped when a fire breaks out.

Ms. St. John says that careful planning now, can save your pets life later. HereÂ’s animal rescue ideas everyone should do:

If your animals are kept indoors or at home during the day:

1. Make sure that the pets’ information is displayed on a small laminated sign near your front door for the Fire Department. e. g. “Animals live here. One cat, two dogs, fish, birds.”

Pet leashes should be on a hook right at the front door so your dogs can quickly be secured. Dogs will submit to their own leashes and a stranger much faster than to a rescue rope. Your fireman already knows the magic words "WALK” and "LEASH".

2. Set up a buddy system with your neighbor. This works great for vacation pet-sitting too. In an emergency they (or you) will pick up all the pets and meet at a pre-arranged location. Leave a note for the fire department. "All animals evacuated!"

When you have been exchanging pet sitting favors, you will already know each other's pets and have house keys. Your buddy will be familiar with your home, know where your animals are likely to be and where you keep their pet carriers.

Tag your pets and micro-chip.

"An ID tag is the only life-line between you and your dog." says Ms. St. John. "Make sure the tag is still legible. Is it updated? Is there enough information to find you - even if your phone service is off? Does it give your home address, so someone can drop him off at home?", asks Ms. St. John.

The chances are that someone who can read your pet's tag will return him home, rather than to a shelter. Owners whose dogs end up in a sheler and cannot prove that the dog is theirs, (either through medical records or by photographs), end up paying full adoption fees and their animals may not be released unless they are spayed or neutered. Compare spending $101 on shelter fees to $6 for a pet ID tag.

One of the greatest innovations today is that of microchipping. There is an army of shelters, vets, and rescue organizations who will return pets from just about anywhere in the United States, if it has a microchip. This life saving chip is the size of a grain of rice and is injected just under your dog's skin.

When a scanner is run over the dog it displays a unique chip number. This number is indexed on a national database with your name, address and phone number. The downside is that information has to be current. If you can choose, opt for a chip that allows you to update your information on the internet.

A little advance planning will make sure that a pet is re-united with his guardian, keeping them out of overcrowded kill shelters where they may be given only a very short time to live.

40 Percent of Employment Claims are Related to Bullying

40 Percent of Employment Claims are Related to Bullying

Two years of recession is causing stress in the work place

(PRWEB) March 3, 2010

40% of all employment claims in 2009 were related to bullying and the number could become higher still as more claims feed through due to the stress caused by two years of severe recession, says Contact Law, the UK’s leading service for recommending local, quality-assured solicitors to consumers.

Contact Law, part of Thomson Reuters, says that out of the 14,130 enquiries it received from employees relating to employment in 2009, 5,652 were in part related to bullying.

Contact Law says that although employers have been aware about the problem for some time now, the difficulty of firstly defining bullying and then acting upon it effectively means that it continues to be a prevalent issue in the workplace. But with the deteriorating climate at work due to recession, Contact Law says that the incidence of bullying claims is likely to increase further.

Dan Watkins, Director of Contact Law: “It is rare for bullying to actually manifest itself in a physical act of aggression such as throwing around mobile phones and documents. Most of the time bullying will be verbal, indirect or symbolic, such as undermining a colleague in front of peers.”

“There is also a very fine line between what is defined as bullying or simply as a tough management style.”

“An employee might think they are being bullied whilst an employer might think they are merely managing that employee properly.”

“The reality is that this will vary according to everyone’s own perception at a given time. The subjective and emotive nature of the topic explains why there is such a difference in opinion as to whether the bullying exists or not.”

He adds: “Employers find it hard to prevent the problem arising because bullying is usually done in a subtle and repetitive way that may easily go unnoticed by the victim’s co-workers. Bullying actions taken individually can be difficult to spot.”

Contact Law says that as employees’ performance comes under tighter scrutiny and their workload and stress level increase as a result of economic pressures, there is a risk that the proportion of employees seeking grievances for bullying could grow even further.

Comments Dan Watkins: “Managers in all sectors have had the same instruction: deliver more with less. To implement that in an environment with low morale and overworked staff you will need acute interpersonal skills and social abilities to steer clear of trouble.”

Market Demand for Standards-based Electronic Signatures in Document Management Systems Skyrockets

Market Demand for Standards-based Electronic Signatures in Document Management Systems Skyrockets

Boston, Massachusetts (PRWEB) April 19, 2007

On the ten-year anniversary of the FDA issuance of the final rule for 21 CFR Part 11 for Electronic Records, EDM vendors worldwide are lining up to support the adoption of standards-based electronic signatures (digital signatures) within their solutions. This meets the growing demand for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) vendors to support standards-based electronic signatures for life science, Healthcare, Government, Finance and other industries.

Life Science organizations have driven standards-based Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) electronic signatures from a concept, to a trend, and now to an industry best practice for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, and other regulations. Standards-based signatures on documents or database transactions eliminate the need for closed and costly proprietary electronic record systems that have burdened business processes between departments, applications and companies for years.

Leading ECM vendors and partners now supporting CoSign® include Oracle®, IBM/FileNet®, OpenText’s Hummingbird®, Laserfiche®, Xerox®, DocuWare®, Microsoft®, and others who have already integrated their systems with the ARX CoSign solution on live implementations and as a standard solution offering.

"Oracle’s customers are now looking to utilize electronic and digital signatures for user authenticity, business process control for financial transactions, and for ensuring electronic pedigree authenticity. Companies are moving beyond electronic recordkeeping just for compliance, and understand the business benefits of improved collaboration, reduced risk and the enforcement of best practices that digital signature technology enables," said John Danese, Life Sciences ERP Product Director at Oracle.

"The bulk of 21 CFR Part 11 compliant document management and workflow systems deployed over the past decade have used a signature component that has been proprietary in nature, and the result is electronic record legacy systems that are painful to maintain," said John Marchioni, Vice President of Business Development, Americas, for ARX, Inc. "It’s very clear the tide is turning, with life science companies requiring standards-based electronic signatures to create signed documents that become self-contained, portable electronic records, providing a tremendous return on investment for these organizations."

CoSign, ARX’s electronic signature solution, is leading the wave of electronic signature adoption with an appliance offering that greatly reduces the cost and complexity of traditional signature deployments. "The growth of CoSign’s use is quite remarkable. Our healthcare and life sciences client base has increased over 1000% in the past two years alone," said Marchioni. "CoSign has driven the Total Cost of Ownership of electronic signature deployments down to 10-15% of traditional PKI deployments in years past. And the server-based architecture, combined with ARX’s extensive application support, drives rapid deployment and user adoption."

"We determined standard PKI-based electronic signatures were the most secure and widely accepted solution for regulatory compliance," said Zikria Syed, CEO of NextDocs – a Microsoft MOSS 2007 Launch Partner.

"CoSign combined with Xerox DocuShare™ and the Sitrof® Compliance Module enables life science organizations to optimize document approval workflows and create electronic records that are self-sustained inside the clients’ organization," said Dan Wheeler, President, Sitrof Technologies, Inc.

"We have seen a growing customer demand for electronic signature solutions initiated both by legislation requirements as well as the need to save on time and costs related to printing, signing and mailing documents," said Tony Heywood, Senior VP EMEA, OpenText ECM (formerly Hummingbird). Hummingbird customer, EFTA (European Free Trade Association) Surveillance Authority, uses CoSign to work with their Hummingbird document management system, doing away with the need for printing, signing and mailing documents, simply for signing purposes.

"CoSign’s capabilities for protecting the integrity of electronic signatures and documents complements Laserfiche’s extensive built-in security features, making ARX a valuable addition to the Laserfiche PDP program," said Hedy Aref, Vice President of Vertical Marketing at Laserfiche.

Ron Janssen, Marketing Director of Square DMS (IBM/FileNet VAR) stated CoSign is "a solution that will enable our customers a smooth migration to electronic signatures and a total paperless environment. CoSign offers our customers a unique integration with their own existing corporate environment that is very simple to use and deploy."

The benefits of CoSign go well beyond 21 CFR Part 11 compliance, enabling life science organizations to eliminate the tremendous costs and time of securing approvals. Industry averages place this human and hard cost at a minimum of $10-20 per document. Furthermore, electronically signed documents do not require any proprietary technology or licenses for recipients to validate authenticity or data integrity. Hence, workflows and electronic submissions are extended beyond the traditional corporate, geographic, and technologic barriers of any single entity to include the extended network of partners collaborating on research, clinical development, regulatory approval and commercial activities.

About CoSign®
CoSign by ARX is a standards-based electronic signature (digital signature) solution. Signing and sealing electronic documents with CoSign will immediately expedite business processes, reduce costs, increase security and help organizations comply with regulations. CoSign electronic signatures are based on standard PKI technology, guaranteeing signer authenticity, data integrity and the non-repudiation of electronic documents.

CoSign supports all major applications and file formats (Word, Excel®, Outlook®, PDF, TIFF, AutoCAD, InfoPath and many more). With a rapid deployment, unique centralized approach, built-in integration with an organization's existing user-management directory systems, and extensive 3rd party application support, CoSign guarantees a quick ROI.

OmniMD EMR New Release Focuses on Integration of Modules & Services

OmniMD EMR New Release Focuses on Integration of Modules & Services

OmniMD, a developer of HIPAA compliant Internet/ Intranet / Tablet PC / PDA/ Desktop compatible enterprise EMR solutions has launched its new release, Version 6.0

Tarrytown, N. Y. (PRWEB) July 29, 2005

OmniMD, a developer of HIPAA compliant Internet/Intranet/Tablet PC/PDA/Desktop compatible enterprise EMR solutions has launched its new release, Version 6.0, with wealth of new features, modules and services making it one of the most comprehensive integrated EMR solutions in the marketplace.

“Our primary focus in the new release has been to eliminate bottlenecks in the clinical workflow and information management.” said Divan Dave, CEO of OmniMD.

The new release is based on input from the present users of the system who consistently stress the need to create a common platform for the work processes of the medical office. “Our aim is to make OmniMDÂ’s complete suite of products a one-stop solution for the practice and the physician.” said Mr. Dave 

OmniMD Version 6 is a broad solution for a medical practice combining in a common package all of the most important information requirements: EMR for clinical documentation, Practice Management for billing and financial administration, Document Management for patient reports, Appointment Scheduler for appointments, to name a few. All these modules work together smoothly to streamline all aspects of the clinical workflow.

Here are some of the main modules available

Automated Patient Reminder, an interactive voice technology that automatically calls and reminds the patient of appointments automatically updates the OmniMD Appointment Scheduler with the patientÂ’s response. The result: reducing no-shows while saving the time and effort of calling and confirming each appointment.

Online Patient Eligibility is an online process for a quicker and more accurate check of a patientÂ’s insurance eligibility, to avoid costly billing errors and claim denials. OmniMD provides real time as well as batch mode online checking for insurance eligibility across commercial and non-commercial insurance payers. Insurance eligibility can be verified through a single point access to all insurance players.

Point and Click EMR System: The new enhanced OmniMD EMR system allows providers to generate consistent, complete and accurate clinical documentation, by selecting variable terms from pre-structured or customized point-and-click templates. The Point-and-click system generates many clinically reports, such as health maintenance reminders, history, physical examination, tests, diagnoses and therapy. One of the major advantages of template based charting is the time needed to make the document available as a medical record. Since notes are created within the EMR, they are available immediately upon completion.

Integrated Billing Services: OmniMD has introduced medical billing services to combine with electronic medical record and charge capture software as a part of its suite of products and services. Trained billing professionals at OmniMD provide these services and manage the complete billing operation so that claims are filled out accurately with charges entered at the point-of-care OmniMDÂ’s using charge capture software. Claims are submitted to the payers in less than a day, instead of the usual 2-3 days, resulting in faster payments and increased cash flow.

These new features are fully integrated with OmniMDÂ’s other features including Appointment Scheduler, Charge Capture, Prescription Writer, Referral Management, and medical transcription. As a result, OmniMD is one of the few vendors providing a comprehensive set of products and services to the medical practice.

About OmniMD

OmniMD is a developer of HIPAA compliant Internet-based enterprise healthcare practice solutions, designed to fully automate the work-flow of contemporary healthcare organizations.

Study Shows You Don't Need Wall Street Sized Bonuses to Raise Employee Morale

Study Shows You Don't Need Wall Street Sized Bonuses to Raise Employee Morale

Over 1,000 Employees Were Surveyed To Find The Top 10 Low Cost Ways To Boost Morale In The Workplace.

Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) March 16, 2010

In this lean economic climate, Wall Street-sized bonuses and pay raises for a job well done are a thing of the past. How can you boost employee morale without breaking the bank? A recent study done by Jonathan Rapoport, founder of www. greatworkperks. com with 500 companies and their employees found that the answer to that question is simpler than you think. Employees are looking for the simple niceties that bring fun, energy and respect into the workplace. Here are the top frequently suggested ideas culled from over 1,000 employee that were surveyed:

10. Potluck lunches once a quarter or even once a month are a great way to bring work teams together in a casual environment. An easy way to accomplish this is to have different departments organize the luncheons or assign each department certain food items to contribute.

9. Incorporate a free online employee perk program like those offered through www. greatworkperks. com to provide employees with valuable discounts to local restaurants, spas, amusement parks, sporting events and shows.

8. Arrange a monthly lunchtime "board game Olympics" where employees can bring in their favorite board games and play tournament-style games. In word games like Scrabble and Bananagrams, offer bonus points to those employees that spell words relevant to your industry or business.

7. Emailing a trivia question once a week can break up the monotony of the work week especially if you offer the winners inexpensive prizes like gift cards for coffee or movie tickets.

6. Have an optional charitable service day once a year where employees can volunteer for different causes as a team. An organization like The United Way offers their massive “Day of Caring” each year, uniting workers with volunteer opportunities in local communities. You might also consider offering a certain amount of hours a month that employees can use toward volunteering at the organization of their choice.

5. Reward an employee for a project well done with an extra day or half-day off. Recognition like this could also be extended to a peer reward program where employees that receive a certain number of kudos from their colleagues can be eligible for additional vacation time or other rewards.

4. Give staff creative forums to share brainstorming ideas in order to improve company performance and reward them if they can bring the idea to fruition. A forum might be a “town hall” type meeting where members of different departments meet with senior level management or the CEO to discuss what works, what doesn’t work and how things could work better. Organizing these each month can be effective in keeping open lines of communication.

3. Choose a month each year and give employees 1/2 day Fridays for the whole month or let employees go home an hour early if their work is done. Summer is the favored time for this practice due to summer vacation schedules.

2. Bring in a chair massage therapist, nutritionist, or yoga instructor to help reduce stress and promote overall health. Many health insurance providers are promoting workplace walking programs and other health initiatives at no cost to their members in an effort to reduce health care premiums. Events like health fairs and health screenings will not only improve your employees’ health but can reduce sick days and improve productivity.

1. Respect, Respect & Respect
Incorporating various employee perks and programs like those outlined above can be easy. But the most effective and desirable morale booster just might be the simplest: expressing your respect and appreciation for your employees often and with sincerity can make a big difference. Employees who feel appreciated will strive to be worthy of recognition, making a happier workplace for all.

If you would like more information on this topic or to schedule an interview with Jonathan Rapoport, CEO & Founder of Great Work Perks, LLC please feel free to call or email him at 310-738-2727 or jonathanr@greatworkperks. com.

Bird Flu Hoax Makes Donald Rumsfeld $1 Million Richer

Bird Flu Hoax Makes Donald Rumsfeld $1 Million Richer

Bird flu fears have spurre the US purchase of billions of dollars of a drugs to treat this suspected pandemic. Dr. Mercola, a leader in the wellness movement in the U. S. has uncovered that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld will directly benefit from this purchase.

Schaumburg, IL (PRWEB) November 1, 2005

Last month President Bush stated that a minimum of 200,000 to a worst case scenario of 2 million deaths would occur in the US alone (http://www. usatoday. com/news/health/2005-10-08-flu-pandemic_x. htm) from the bird flu epidemic. This belief was used to justify the immediate purchase of 20 million doses of Tamiflu at $100 per dose which comes to a staggering $2 billion.

While administration officials believe drug therapy will help decrease the deaths in a bird flu pandemic, Dr. Mercola who is the founder of mercola. com (http://www. mercola. com/index. htm) the second most visited non-government health site after WebMD, states that, "Simple lifestyle changes can enhance your immune system to provide a virtual guarantee that you will not get the flu."

Unfortunately, lawmakers have already given Bush money to begin bird flu preparations. Last Thursday $8 billion in emergency funding was passed by the Senate which an amount considered close to what federal health officials believe they will need to apply a drug based solution to the projected bird flu pandemic.

Part of that money will be used to purchase a supply of the drug Tamiflu. Roche is the company that manufactures Tamiflu, but further investigations will show that the drug was actually developed by a company called Gilead which 10 years ago gave Roche the exclusive rights to market and sell Tamiflu.

The Rumsfeld Connection to Gilead

If you read Gilead’s website (http://www. gilead. com/wt/sec/pr_933190157/), you'll learn that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was named the chairman of Gilead in 1997.

According to CNN yesterday, he still holds a Gilead stake valued at between $5 million and $25 million (http://money. cnn. com/2005/10/31/news/newsmakers/fortune_rumsfeld/?cnn=yes) and will handsomely profit from the scare tactics the government is currently using to justify the purchase of $2 billion of Tamiflu. Disclosure forms don't reveal the exact number of shares Rumsfeld owns, but in the past six months fears of a bird flu pandemic and the ensuing scramble for Tamiflu have sent Gilead's stock from $35 to $47. That's made the Pentagon chief, already one of the wealthiest members of the Bush cabinet, at least $1 million richer.

British Medical Journal Admits the Truth about Bird Flu

Last week's British Medical Journal (http://bmj. bmjjournals. com/cgi/content/full/331/7523/975) has an editorial on the bird flu in which they state the following:

"The lack of sustained human-to-human transmission suggests that this AH5N1 avian virus does not currently have the capacity to cause a human pandemic"

Dr. Mercola (http://www. mercola. com/index. htm), a New York Times best selling author and founder of the most visited wellness health site in the world http://www. mercola. com/index. htm (http://www. mercola. com/index. htm), stated:

“While it is possible the virus could mutate with the influenza A virus and to acquire the means for rapid human to human transmission, the bird flu virus clearly does NOT have this ability now. All the preparation and fear being created in the media is about a theoretical speculation.”

Fortunately there are simple and highly effective lifestyle changes that can radically reduce your risk of becoming infected with the bird flu. To receive your free report please go to www. mercola. com/birdflu (http://www. mercola. com/birdflu).

BancTec, Inc. Board Adopts Stockholder Rights Plan

BancTec, Inc. Board Adopts Stockholder Rights Plan

BancTec, Inc. today announced that its Board of Directors has adopted a stockholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) designed to protect company stockholders in the event of takeover activity that would deny them the full value of their investment. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any specific takeover threat.

Irving, TX (Vocus) October 15, 2010

BancTec, Inc. today announced that its Board of Directors has adopted a stockholder rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) designed to protect company stockholders in the event of takeover activity that would deny them the full value of their investment. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any specific takeover threat.

In adopting the Rights Plan, the Board declared a dividend distribution of one preferred stock purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock of the Company, payable to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 1, 2010. The rights will become exercisable only in the event, with certain exceptions, a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires 15% or more of the Company’s voting stock, or a person or group of affiliated or associated persons commences a tender or exchange offer, which if successfully consummated, would result in such person or group owning 15% or more of the Company’s voting stock. The rights will expire on December 31, 2015.

Each right, once exercisable, will entitle the holder (other than rights owned by an acquiring person or group) to buy one one thousandth of a share of the Company’s preferred stock at a price of $20, subject to adjustments. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, holders of the rights (other than rights owned by an acquiring person or group) would be entitled to purchase either the Company’s preferred stock or shares in an “acquiring entity” at approximately half of market value. Further, at any time after a person or group acquires 15% or more (but less than 50%) of the Company’s outstanding voting stock, subject to certain exceptions, the Board of Directors may, at its option, exchange part or all of the rights (other than rights held by an acquiring person or group) for shares of the Company's common stock having a fair market value on the date of such acquisition equal to the excess of (i) the fair market value of preferred stock issuable upon exercise of the rights over (ii) the exercise price of the rights.

The Company generally will be entitled to redeem the rights at $0.001 per right at any time prior to the close of business on the tenth day after there has been a public announcement of the beneficial ownership by any person or group of 15% or more of the Company’s voting stock, subject to certain exceptions.

Commenting on the Rights Plan, J. Coley Clark, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The Board of Directors did not adopt the Rights Plan in response to any specific takeover threat. The Board believes that the Rights Plan represents a sound and reasonable means of safeguarding the interests of our stockholders. It seeks to ensure that stockholders realize the long-term value of their investment. The Rights Plan should encourage anyone seeking to acquire the Company to treat all stockholders equally and to negotiate with the Board prior to a coercive takeover attempt. The company’s Plan is similar to those adopted by many other companies.”

Details of the Rights Plan will be outlined in a separate letter to be mailed to stockholders today.

Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating Has Come to Atlanta. Program offers freshly prepared meals deliverd by the week

Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating Has Come to Atlanta. Program offers freshly prepared meals deliverd by the week

Company to offer fresh meals that are healthy, delicious and ready to eat. Never frozen, the meals are delivered to your home twice a week. Seattle Sutton's of Georgia makes eating right easy.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) November 20, 2003

Fire your personal chef. Tell the fast food restaurant you wonÂ’t be coming by. There is a new choice for healthy eating - and its delivered right to your door. Introducing Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating of Georgia. Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating is a weekly program of 21 freshly prepared meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) for just about 100 dollars per week. Every meal is individually packaged to be delicious and nutritious. Never frozen or freeze dried, the food is made here in Atlanta.

Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating (SSHE) offers its clients controlled portions and meals based on a limited amount of calories, making it the perfect complement for losing weight. Calories are limited to 1200 or 2000 per day and sodium intake is limited to 3000mg per day. But donÂ’t let that scare you the food is really good.

Additionally it is packaged just right for the person on the go. SSHE takes the stress out of what to bring to work for lunch or what to eat for dinner. Imagine having a homemade granola bar for breakfast, being able to bite into a fresh bistro sandwich for lunch or a dinner of orange roughy delightfully seasoned and served on a bed of long grain wild rice accompanied by parsleyed carrots. All this with no question if itÂ’s good for you and no worries about preparation.

But donÂ’t just take our word for it. SSHE is already feeding people across the US and they love it.

"This is far by the best food management plan I have ever found. The meals are delicious and there's no planning necessary on my part. SSHE is a Godsend for busy, health conscious people."

J. O. Bloomington, IL

“I enjoy having delicious meals without trying to find a lot of preparation time in my busy schedule."

S. H. Wheaton, IL

So the food is good - but why the name? Well there really is a Seattle Sutton. SheÂ’s a registered nurse from Chicago who was fed up with the eating habit she saw around her. In 1985 she sat down with three employees and created the meals. After testing by dieticians and taste experts she created the first meals of Seattle SuttonÂ’s Healthy Eating.

Seattle Sutton has made its way to Atlanta courtesy of Sarah Burmeister and Chris Gyoury. Their years of producing TV food programs, like Food Network’s “Good Eats” and “Mario Eats Italy” plus working with some of America’s top chefs led them to Seattle Sutton. After much research on their part and a bit of convincing to Seattle Sutton they brought the company to Atlanta. Now from their state of the art kitchen they look forward to introducing this amazing program to Georgians.

So who should try SSHE? Its good for the busy working woman, the elderly man who wants to be sure heÂ’s eating right, the diabetic who needs to control her sugar, the nursing mother who has no time to cook and you - who never wants to see the inside of the grocery store again. So no planning, no shopping, no measuring and no counting calories! What could be better?

Contact SSHE at 1-877- 442-DIET or on the web at www. sshe. com

Study Discovers Truth About Hoodia Diet Pills

Study Discovers Truth About Hoodia Diet Pills

New study investigates over 50 Hoodia diet pills, discovers approximately 50 percent fake, and reveals five most effective brands.

Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) September 22, 2007

Hoodia Gordonii (http://internethealthreview. com/hoodia), an unassuming cactus-like plant found only in a small region of South Africa, has been heralded by many as the answer to weight loss. It has been featured on the likes of CBS News, 60 minutes, Oprah Winfrey, ABC and countless major magazines.

Hoodia Gordonii was found to contain a unique molecule that appears highly effective for dieters without traditional side effects of stimulants, and used by local African natives for thousands of years to suppress appetite.

While hoodia diet pills (http://internethealthreview. com/hoodia) hold much promise for those dieting, a new study reveals a double edged sword. It discovered, while real Hoodia Gordonii diet pills can be highly effective in weight loss, that 50 percent or more of the hoodia products sold don't contain authentic South African Hoodia Gordonii.

In an extensive research study of over 50 products, by InternetHealthReview. com (http://internethealthreview. com/hoodia), it was discovered that most hoodia products on the market were either ineffective due to no real Hoodia Gordonii content or as a result of too small quantity per dose.

When asked about CITES certification and similar methods often touted by sellers for identifying quality hoodia, spokesperson, Jennifer Marshall, explains, "What few people realize is that real South African Hoodia Gordonii is rare, and the majority is all exported by just a few export companies worldwide, so all these companies displaying CITES export certificates are not likely displaying their own, if it is even real." She further indicated that it was simply a sales tool used by hoodia sellers to sell more products.

Millennium Health, a major importer/exporter of 75 percent of the world's hoodia stated "The market is saturated with fake Hoodia."

When asked what people can do to obtain effective hoodia for weight loss, Jennifer Marshall indicated that the only truly effective way is to have it tested by an independent lab.

Acknowledging that was not realistic for most consumers, Marshall urged consumers to buy only brands previously shown to be effective. She further commented on avoiding gimmicks like gum, tea, bars and coffee, none of which have yet been proven effective.

Fortunately, the study reveals some fat busting results for a few brands of hoodia, which have helped people lose up to 52 pounds. On their site at InternetHealthReview. com/Hoodia provides dieters a report revealing the top 5 results for hoodia diet pills (http://internethealthreport. com/hoodia), as well as guidelines to use in purchasing Hoodia Gordonii.

MYsurance. net has partnerships with all of the nation's top insurance companies, including: Geico, Allstate, State Farm, Farmers, Aflac, AIG, Nationwide, Liberty Mutual, AAA, Esurance, Humana, New York Life, and more. Users who register with MYsurance. net will receive free insurance quotes (http://www. MYsurance. net/) from all of the companies that MYsurance. net has partnered with, and can then choose the best rate.

"We are excited for the opportunity to save people money on their insurance policies," said MYsurance. net CEO Ben Bagley. "With the economy and our healthcare system in a disastrous state, we know that consumers need all the help they can get to save money; we're confident we can make a difference in people's lives."

Bagley also said that it is important for consumers not to settle for the first quote that comes their way. "One of the biggest mistakes people make is to not shop around. People just talk to an insurance agent, receive a quote, and sign on the dotted line."

MYsurance. net allows customers to see what all of the top companies have to offer and chose which policy they want.

"Insurance companies change their rates and selection criteria daily," Bagley said. "The purpose of MYsurance. net is to keep our customers informed and save them money by finding them the best rate possible on their insurance."

MYsurance. net recommends that consumers get a new insurance quote at least twice a year to ensure that they are getting the best rate possible on their insurance policy.

SportPharma Attacks Low Carb Trend With Better Quality, Triple-Filtered Whey Protein Line; Naturade to Offer Health Food Retailers a Natural Choice

SportPharma Attacks Low Carb Trend With Better Quality, Triple-Filtered Whey Protein Line; Naturade to Offer Health Food Retailers a Natural Choice

Naturade, Inc., has introduced a complete line of sports nutrition powders made with whey protein that is both triple-filtered using a proprietary process and offers generally lower levels of carbohydrates down to three net carbs; these products will be offered to all classes of trade to provide fitness consumers a higher quality choice than is generally found in most stores.

IRVINE, CA (PRWEB) March 16, 2004

Naturade, Inc., has introduced a complete line of sports nutrition powders made with whey protein that is both triple-filtered using a proprietary process and offers generally lower levels of carbohydrates down to three net carbs; these products will be offered to all classes of trade to provide fitness consumers a higher quality choice than is generally found in most stores.

Naturade is entering the category with SportPharma to build market share in the untapped health food store segment of the market. This segment has not been cracked by the Sports Nutrition powerhouses such as EAS and MetRx because those lines are formulated only with artificial sweeteners and flavors that are not acceptable to natural supermarkets such as Wild Oats and Whole Foods.

“We see huge potential in health food stores, natural supermarkets and natural store-within-a-store sets in mass supermarkets,” says Bill Stewart, Naturade CEO. “ This launch provides the health food trade that Naturade has served since 1926 with the opportunity to capture new customers with a serious sports nutrition line that meets their more rigid ingredient requirements.”

The new SportPharma® line offers increased potential by addressing the 60 million “fitness-active” consumers identified by Copernican Associates, rather than the narrow traditional market of body builders and elite athletes. Nutrition Business Journal estimates Sports Nutrition Powders as a $1.6 billion category.

The line includes a whey protein shake with 22 grams of protein per serving, a meal replacement powder with 42 grams of protein, a gainer with 56 grams of protein and a super premium isolate that contains 100% pure whey protein isolate with no lactose. The purity of the protein is important to those who exercise regularly and want to avoid bloating and cramps. These four product types will be available in a range of sizes from one-pound cans to six-pound jars. Each store will also be able to carry products that are sweetened with their choice of fructose or sucralose.

The Whey Protein Shake and the Lactose Free Isolate powders will have special appeal to the 59 million men and women in the U. S. who are controlling carbohydrate intake. Respectively they offer only three and four net carbs, even in the fructose-sweetened formulations.

Triple-filtering of the protein in the entire line of products is what sets this line apart. The proprietary process used by SportPharma® actually grew out of membrane technology first developed over 30 years ago to create whey-based infant formulas. The membrane technology is used today to meet the stringent quality standards of medical foods. Triple filtering not only retains the full spectrum of whey peptides and protein fractions, but it eliminates the undesirable elements such as lactose or fat.

“The purer the whey, the better the taste,” says Stewart. “We challenge the competition to a taste test. We’re confident that consumers will choose our naturally sweetened products over other all-natural sports powders hands down. Our sucralose sweetened formulas taste even better.”

SportPharma backs up its claims of better quality and better taste with a money-back guarantee. This mail-in offer requires no handling by the retailer, unlike some competitors whose labels direct consumers to return the product to the store.

Headquartered in Irvine, Calif., Naturade provides healthy solutions for weight loss consistent with its commitment – since 1926 – to improve the health and well-being of consumers, with innovative, natural products. Its premier product, Naturade Total Soy®, is a complete line of ready-to-drink meal replacement products for weight loss and cholesterol reduction, which is sold at major supermarket and club, health food, drug and mass merchandise stores throughout the U. S. and Canada. Well-known for over 50 years of leadership in Soy Protein, Naturade also markets a complete line of protein boosters for low carbohydrate dieters. The company recently expanded its weight loss offerings with a new line including products for low-carb dieters under the name Diet Lean™. Naturade’s other products include Calcium Shake™, Naturade Total Soy Menopause Relief™, Power Shake®, Quick Fizz™ and Aloe Vera 80®. For more information, visit www. naturade. com

URL Shortener Rated-XXX Porn Warning Likely To Help Porn Sites Make More Money

URL Shortener Rated-XXX Porn Warning Likely To Help Porn Sites Make More Money

URL shortener 1-z. us adds "Rated-XXX" warnings to shortened URLs with link or content containing provocative words hinting graphic sexual content. This helps protect minors, warns people who don't wish to see such material and helps legal pornography purveyors comply with their own local and 195 other country laws worldwide.

Deer Park, NY (PRWEB) November 3, 2010

URL shortener 1-z. us adds "Rated-XXX" warnings to shortened URLs with link or content containing provocative words hinting graphic sexual content. This helps protect minors, warns people who don't wish to see such material and helps legal pornography purveyors comply with their own local and 195 other country laws worldwide.

"Freedom of speech and peace thorough cooperation, respect and tolerance," owner Bill Purkins said, "and this likely helps porn sellers make more money. Legal adults, their customers, seeing "Rated-XXX" on short links? They'll know it's the good stuff and will spend less time searching, more time buying. I'm laughing my expletive deleted off here."

Reasoning his 8-year-old grandson had nothing preventing major or social network search engines from allowing purposeful or accidental clicking of shortened links that skip porn site entrance page warnings, instead leading to adult videos, Purkins designed a relational database reminiscent of International Trade systems he programmed for household name Fortune 500 companies from 1981 to 2006.

The top level table is the world's 196 ISO country codes, correlating to top level domain name extensions, i. e. US for the United States, ME for Montenegro, CO for Columbia. Purkins added data elements, warning / severity flags for keywords and phrases for illegal or potentially illegal sexual content also text warning(s) in local language to warn people before viewing adult content.

Then, for both persons shortening URLs and end users, IP Address ranges that computers fall within can be matched to the country, and, as Purkins explains, "it's so simple it's elegant. Only worry? Who writes the disclaimer on the Arabic and the Chinese? I'm not a lawyer, and I am not going into the censorship business, no way. Don't shoot the messenger, baby."

Purkins states that the Internet, which he has been programming for since 1998, is sort of a parlor game for him after "building rocket ship software since 1981, for over 25 Fortune 500 International Logistics and supply chain fulfillment back office systems. Household names, all of them, but if I use them? Or tell you my buddy's name? I'd get sued. It's their system, not mine. IBM I can say though. They gave me and my partner an AS/400 pre-release, I guess they wanted to see if we could sell one but also break it. We did both. First though we blew the stack in two days. Ha. Fun."

"But, at 55 years old and starting my life over after a rough millennium until a couple years ago, my former reign as Mr. Mom to three teenagers leaves me sort of an empty nester. I had survived major open heart surgery, three minor-strokes, lost my wife, and also abruptly stopped being a millionaire all in just one year, eventually sort of depressed if you know what I'm saying, and finally, no job, 19 cents in the bank. It's an old, brutal sob story, but today I laugh, just tell people today I'm happy, my kids are grown and healthy being young adults, you know three cell phone numbers a year? That age. And my beautiful parents are 82 and get out more than I do. I'm trying to make it on my own from home and I go days without putting shoes on, 19 hours a day.

"I even dated a bit this Summer. Women my own age. It was neat, sharing dinner on plates without cartoon animals on 'em and real cloth napkins. Expense accounts and limos back and forth to the airport gave me a taste for nice restaurants, but when I'm broke I'm happy with a taco, too. No love of money here, man. And the guy from corporate who lied to me so the market wouldn't see insiders bailing out? I was recovering from heart surgery when they said I couldn't sell that stock that tanked and it went from 35 bucks a share to 2 British pence. He just hung himself I heard. Bad medicine, Lone Ranger. So, I got different attitudes on money these days. You understand?"

Natural Sleep Aid Tips and Remedies

Natural Sleep Aid Tips and Remedies

This article is a summary of some of the sleep aid remedies that are described in greater detail and with recipes and instructions at www. sleep-aid-tips. com

(PRWEB) July 5, 2005

At certain times, insomnia may result from stress. Massage techniques can ease tense necks, aching shoulders and upright torsos, and face massage can be an instant calmer.

Some stress is an inevitable part of life, but when you need to achieve a state of inner calm, a range of meditation and visualization techniques can help you work through your insecurities, worries and anxieties.

With practice, stress can be diminished so that it is no longer a cause of sleepless nights.

A calm environment:

Lack of sleep can also be exacerbated by external factors such as noise, a “busy” atmosphere in the bedroom, or simply the wrong type of mattress. By making the best of your physical environment, you can reduce or remove many of these detrimental factors.

Pampering treatments:

In view of the many demands made by daily life, it is essential to find time to switch off from cares and worries in the evening, and indulge in some personal quality time.

Bedtime snacks:

Instead of raiding the refrigerator for a substantial and perhaps indigestible meal, it is better to opt for a light snack, such as toast with a topping and perhaps a hot, comforting beverage.

Exercise to relax:

Keeping the body moving is essential for good sleep – without exercise, you will not be physically tired enough to rest at night. Aerobic activities such as walking and cycling exercise the heart and tone the muscles, while some specific yoga techniques provide an excellent way to stretch and relax.

Avoid these sleep deterrents:

-Drinking excessive alcohol

-Smoking cigarettes

-Drinking caffeine

-Taking long naps in the afternoon

-Watching disturbing films prior to bed

-Reading mentally stimulating books prior to bed

-Playing video games

-Listening to fast paced or loud, stimulating music.
