Vital Choice Offers Rare, Reefnet-Harvested Pink Salmon For A Limited Time

Vital Choice Offers Rare, Reefnet-Harvested Pink Salmon For A Limited Time



Pure, delicate pink salmon, caught using ancient, sustainable fishing method; a rare harvest that happens only once every two years



Bellingham, WA (PRWEB) September 28, 2009



Vital Choice Wild Seafood & Organics (http://www. vitalchoice. com), the leading to-your-door provider of premium wild Alaskan salmon and other certified organic and kosher foods, is offering rare, "reefnet"-caught Pacific pink salmon (http://www. vitalchoice. com/product/wild-salmon/wild-pacific-pink-salmon) for a very limited time.



Reefnet pink salmon is prized--by the few who've experienced it--for its exquisite taste and texture. Due to pink salmon's exceptional fragility, most is canned, making Vital Choice flash-frozen pink salmon a true delicacy. Wild pink salmon arrive in Puget Sound only every other year, so, once gone, it won't be available again until 2011.



Pink salmon are harvested for Vital Choice by reefnet rigs off Lummi Island, Wash., where fishers hand-tend the nets. The pink salmon are handled with care and flash-frozen immediately after catch to preserve their wonderful fresh-caught flavor and texture.



"The reefnet fishing tradition is very special - there are only 11 reefnets left in existence, all in the Puget Sound region. Reefnetting is a hands-on operation, the most environmentally responsible method that yields the finest quality salmon available anywhere, anytime, hands down," said Randy Hartnell, founder and president of Vital Choice. "It's a real delight to be able to connect fishers operating in such a responsible manner with customers who appreciate the 'best of the best' wild salmon."



The Vital Choice Reefnet Salmon Offer

Through Vital Choice, lovers of wild salmon now have the unique opportunity to purchase reefnet-caught pink salmon. In past years, this uncommon catch has sold out quickly, so people are encouraged to order immediately. Prices range from $64 for six skinless-boneless portions to $169 for 24 portions (shipping is free for all orders over $99). As with all Vital Choice perishable products, the Pacific pink salmon portions are vacuum packaged and shipped frozen on dry ice, ensuring fresh-caught quality for several months.



To take advantage of this once-every-other-year offer, please visit http://www. vitalchoice. com/product/wild-salmon/wild-pacific-pink-salmon (http://www. vitalchoice. com/product/wild-salmon/wild-pacific-pink-salmon).



What is Reefnet Fishing?

Reefnet fishing is one of the most eco-friendly fishing practices in the world, in which other species are released unharmed. The fishing gear consists of two small, stationary, unpowered rafts with a net suspended underwater between them. The crews wait for the flood tide, and as the migrating salmon rise up to clear the reef, spotters in the rigs' towers call out for the net to be raised. Fossil fuel use is minimal because the rafts do not move in the water once they've been positioned. Some rafts even use solar panels to power their electric winches.



The fishermen catch only a few salmon at a time, which are immediately placed into a small net cage suspended in the sea. This interlude relaxes the fish and allows time for the lactic acid in their muscles to dissipate, ensuring optimal flavor. As soon as they're ready, the salmon are plucked from the sea and placed in insulated totes full of slush ice. At the end of the day, they're ferried a short distance to shore, where they're cleaned, processed and flash-frozen to preserve their fresh flavor and delicate texture.



To see reefnet fishing in action, check out this video (http://www. youtube. com/watch? v=GHUQGMOIS6o), created by Randy Hartnell.



About Vital Choice Wild Seafood & Organics

Before founding Vital Choice (http://www. vitalchoice. com) in 2001, Northwest Washington native Randy Hartnell spent more than 20 years as a commercial fisherman in Alaska. Today, Vital Choice is a trusted source for fast home delivery of the world's finest wild Alaskan seafood and organic fare. Vital Choice foods are among the purest available, and are sustainably harvested from healthy, well-managed wild fisheries and organic farms.

Thermage DC helps tighten, firm and shape the body in a single treatment without surgery, injections-- and all with little or no downtime. Thermage DC heats 79% deeper than the original Thermage for increased collagen tightening in the subcutaneous layer of the skin for the abdomen, "love handles," thighs, buttocks and arm areas. The treatment is ideal for patients who are not significantly overweight but want deep tightening of sagging skin and reduction of unwanted bulges.



"The Thermage DC treatment has been so popular and effective with patients in our clinical trials and we are excited that we can now offer this fantastic advancement to all of our patients," said Dr. Johnson, owner of Innovations MedSpa. "We consistently see a 1-2 inch reduction immediately and we've seen as many as five inches removed as evidenced in our live television segments."

"Pope Hat Chip" Auction Reaches 25,000 Viewers - Imposter Chip Also Appears on eBay

"Pope Hat Chip" Auction Reaches 25,000 Viewers - Imposter Chip Also Appears on eBay



The Doritos® corn chip that some say resembles the Pope’s Mitre hat has reached the 25,000 viewer mark on auction site eBay.



Salem, MA (PRWEB) March 22, 2005



The Doritos® corn chip that some say resembles the Pope’s Mitre hat has reached the 25,000 viewer mark on auction site eBay. The chip, listed last weekend by The Chadwick family of Salem, Mass. has had quite the publicity campaign which includes the chip’s own website (www. PopeHatChip. com), a webcam and now a theme song. A parody of the theme from "The Love Boat," the song is available for download at the chip’s website. The webcam has been put up to assure bidders that the chip is being kept safe and secure during the remaining hours of the auction.



Why all the bother for a single Doritos chip? "We’re having some fun with this, for sure," said family spokesperson, Rich Chadwick. "The Pope’s health is improving and Easter week is here – why not share this with the world?" Chadwick, 37, owner of an audio/video production company in the Boston area, MultiMediaPros found the chip while watching TV with his family last Saturday evening.



In what appears to be a frenzy of chip auction fever, a copy-cat chip has appeared on eBay from Canada. The second chip seems to have been broken to match the shape of the ChadwickÂ’s chip and has yet to receive any bids. As of Tuesday morning the bid for the "original" chip was up to over $850. The auction ends tonight at 9:15 pm eastern time.

Manna Pro Celebrates the Arrival of Young Farm Animals with “Baby Your Babies”

Manna Pro Celebrates the Arrival of Young Farm Animals with “Baby Your Babies”



A national photo contest and educational webinars bring attention to the importance of nutrition for young animals.



Chesterfield, MO (Vocus) February 5, 2010



Animal nutrition (http://www. mannapro. com) leader Manna Pro is reaching out to new animal parents this Spring with a series of free educational webinars and a Cutest Baby Photo Contest to celebrate the joys and challenges of newborn animals. The webinars, which take place on three consecutive Tuesdays in February, address key topics in animal nutrition for both mothers and babies during the first months of life. The photo contest, which runs through May 31, 2010, encourages farmers across the country to share their favorite photos of the animals they are raising this Spring.



Manna Pro is dedicated to the care and nurturing of animals, and produces high-quality animal nutrition and care products for a broad range of species. Manna Pro’s product lines primarily serve the “lifestyle farmer” market -- people who own acreage with farm animals, and operate their farms as a hobby rather than a business.



Jennifer Hojnacki, Marketing Director for Manna Pro, says Manna Pro recognizes that caring for and feeding farm animals are activities enjoyed by the whole family. “Our consumers consider their animals to be more like pets or family members than just livestock,” she says. “They want to know as much as possible about keeping their animals healthy, and they are like proud ‘parents’ when their animals have new babies. The Baby Your Babies promotion gives them a way to learn about important nutrition issues -- and also a way to share their new arrivals with the larger farming community.”



The series of free webinars will each be conducted by Manna Pro’s Vice President of Nutrition, Dr. Rob McCoy, PhD. The first webinar will be on Tuesday, February 9, on the topic of Preparing for Newborn Animals. The second webinar will be held Tuesday, February 16 and will address Feeding Milk Replacers… Why, When and How. The final webinar will be Tuesday, February 23 and will cover Transitioning to Dry Feed.



Each 30-minute webinar will begin at 4:30pm CST on the date it is held. People who wish to participate in any or all of the webinars may sign up online by visiting http://www. mannapro. com/byb_webinars. html (http://www. mannapro. com/byb_webinars. html)], and clicking on the link for the webinar(s) they are interested in. Web site participants will receive a $5 coupon good for Manna Pro products for each webinar they attend. In addition, Manna Pro media partner Grit Magazine (www. grit. com]) will offer participants one free issue of the magazine ($4.99 value). Grit is a bi-monthly magazine that celebrates country lifestyles of all kinds.



“These three topics represent the hallmarks of the spring season for lifestyle farmers,” Dr. McCoy says. “Preparing for new animals, ensuring their health during the important first months, and then transitioning them to a healthy and sustainable dry feed regimen once they are weaned. We hope many of our customers will be able to participate in all three webinars.”



The Cutest Baby Photo Contest will honor three winners in each of six categories with $100 “Country Cutie” cash awards. The six entry categories are: foals; kids; calves; lambs; chicks; and other livestock. In addition, one Grand Prize winner will received $1,000 cash plus a feature on the Manna Pro web site during the month of July. Manna Pro must receive all entries via mail or email by May 31. Everyone who enters a photo will receive a free magnetic photo frame, and complete entry rules and instructions can be found at http://mannapro. com/byb_home. html (http://mannapro. com/byb_home. html)].



About Manna Pro Products

Manna Pro has long been a trusted name in the animal nutrition industry. Respected products -- including the company’s signature brand, Calf-Manna®, the Super Horse® line of feeds, and Apple Wafers -- have been used by discriminating horse owners for decades.

EnovateIT Provides Rubbermaid Medical Medication Administration Solution for Milford Hospital

EnovateIT Provides Rubbermaid Medical Medication Administration Solution for Milford Hospital



Milford (CT) Hospital patients in southern Connecticut are now benefiting from a custom solution by Troy, Michigan-based EnovateIT to improve the hospital's medication administration process. The state-of-the art solution features Rubbermaid Medical medication carts on medical surgical units.



Troy, MI (PRWEB) October 2, 2006



Milford Hospital, a full-service medical center in Connecticut, desired to measurably improve their medication administration process. The existing medication carts were cumbersome and lacked the mobile computing systems necessary to electronically track the details associated with inpatient medication delivery.



As an initial step towards the deployment of Meditech’s Electronic Medication Administration Record software (EMAR), Milford Hospital’s nurse, pharmacy and IT management teams decided to explore other delivery options. Lynn Christensen and Maureen Smith, executives in Milford Hospital’s IT and nursing departments, contacted Enovate IT for ideas. “We were looking for medication carts that readily integrated with mobile computing systems. We were especially impressed with Rubbermaid and EnovateIT’s ability to deliver a powerful, small-form-factor computer and long lasting battery on a fully functioning medication cart,” stated Lynn Christensen, Milford Hospital CIO.



EnovateIT crafted a custom solution comprised of Rubbermaid Medical Solutions medication carts, light-weight mini-PCs, infection control keyboards and mice, and 17” flat panel monitors for easy viewing of data by clinicians. Doug Gallacher, Enovate IT Regional Manager, said “We handled all of the on-site integration and handed to Milford Hospital carts ready to be rolled onto the floors. Our focus on the hardware will allow Milford to focus on the software implementation and clinical workflow improvements as they move forward.”

NLN and Laerdal Announce Patient Cases for SimMan 3G: Auto Mode Programming Ideal for Nursing Community

NLN and Laerdal Announce Patient Cases for SimMan 3G: Auto Mode Programming Ideal for Nursing Community



SimMan 3G's Auto Mode programming, physiological models, and patient cases that automatically control simulations are ideal for use in the nursing community. These cases are easier to use and deliver a high degree of clinical accuracy allowing individuals with varying degrees of technical knowledge to run simulations and decreasing set-up time.



Wappingers Falls, NY (PRWEB) January 13, 2010



Laerdal and the National League for Nursing have announced the availability of nursing cases for SimMan 3G that features Auto Mode programming and utilizes physiological models and patient cases to automatically control simulations.



These cases are ideal for use in the nursing community -- they are easier to use and they deliver a high degree of clinical accuracy. Because Nursing Patient Cases allow people with varying degrees of technical knowledge to run simulations, their time to get up and running is decreased.



"The NLN is delighted to have teamed up once again with Laerdal to bring another technological advance to the pedagogy of nursing education," said NLN CEO Beverly Malone, PhD, RN, FAAN. "This will undoubtedly raise still higher the standard of excellence in nursing education that is the mission of the NLN."



Other features of SimMan 3G is the new graphical user interface (GUI), which has an intuitive design that makes it easy for educators to operate. Educators can easily change the level of complexity of a case while it is in progress by using sliders to make the case easier or more difficult for learners. This is particularly valuable when running simulations with learners at varying levels of competency.



Julie Settles MSN, ACNP, BC, CEN, assistant clinical professor and program coordinator of the Acute Care nursing program at Indiana University, finds great value in the Auto Mode programming for her students. Said Ms. Settles, "Having the new Auto Mode programming for 3G has really decreased my anxiety about the programming side of conducting simulations." She added that the unique nature of the programming offers ease of use and boosts her confidence to run simulations. "I know that I can instantly change the vitals signs and other parameters by using the slider rather than worrying about correct programming. It is also nice that I can easily adjust the scenario based on how the student is performing. I can slow down physiological changes or speed them up as needed."



The Nursing Patient Cases contain 20 existing cases developed for use on SimMan and are mapped to the 2007 National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN) test categories promoting Safe and effective care environment, Health promotion and maintenance, Psychosocial integrity, and Physiological integrity.



The National League of Nursing is dedicated to excellence in nursing, the National League for Nursing is the premier organization for nurse faculty and leaders in nursing education offering faculty development, networking opportunities, testing services, nursing research grants, and public policy initiatives to its 30,000 individual and 1,200 institutional members. For more information, visit www. nln. org.

Halogen Software Honored as Employer of Choice



Talent Management Leader Named to Top 50 Small and Medium Employers in Canada



(PRWEB) January 16, 2009



Ottawa ON -- Halogen Software announced today that it has been named one of the Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada. This national awards program, sponsored by Queen’s School of Business and Hewitt Associates, recognizes top employers with 50 to 400 employees. It mirrors the renowned Best Employer in Canada initiative, but is focused on small and medium sized businesses. The study, now in its fifth year, is published by the Globe and Mail.



Selected from a pool of hundreds of small and medium sized companies across Canada, Halogen’s inclusion in this exclusive ranking is a testament to its employee focused corporate culture. The company ensures that employees are treated as major stakeholders in the organization, and lives its mission statement based on the principles of respect, recognition and empowerment. The organization also uses its own talent management (http://www. halogensoftware. com/) solutions internally to support its employee-centered culture.

Our on-going success in the area of employee engagement is directly linked to our overall business success, and we are honored with this distinction.”



Achieving the distinction of a Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employer involves a very detailed and competitive process. The rankings are primarily determined using the results from Employee Opinion Surveys. Here, 18 key engagement drivers are detailed and analyzed. The evaluation process also includes the assessment of organizational practices and perspectives from the leadership team.



Study partners include Queen's School of Business, Queen’s Centre for Business Venturing and Hewitt Associates. More information about the Best Small & Medium Employers in Canada is available online at Business. queensu. ca/qcbv/sme (http://business. queensu. ca/qcbv/sme).

Oprah Reports on Deadly MRSA Superbug Infections; Microbiologist Publishes Superbug Survival Guide

Oprah Reports on Deadly MRSA Superbug Infections; Microbiologist Publishes Superbug Survival Guide



Embrace Health, Inc. has launched a Superbug Survival Guide to help people prevent and avoid superbug infections. Written by Microbiologist and Staph bacteria researcher Michelle Moore, this guide book addresses prevention measures for MRSA and other super bug infections. The Superbug Survival Guide is available in electronic format through the company website.



Fort Collins, CO (Vocus) April 30, 2009



Embrace Health, Inc. announced today that the super bug prevention guide book Superbug Survival Guide (http://www. staph-infection-resources. com/superbug-survival-guide. html) is now available. Superbug infections are resistant to many types of antibiotics and are a growing problem no longer confined to hospitals. Superbug infections such as MRSA (http://www. staph-infection-resources. com/what-is-mrsa. html) are infecting more and more healthy people in community settings. Important steps can be taken to prevent superbug infections and minimize contact with these dangerous strains of bacteria. The Superbug Survival Guide is available at the company’s website www. Staph-Infection-Resources. com/superbug-survival-guide. html (http://www. Staph-Infection-Resources. com/superbug-survival-guide. html).



MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) and other contagious superbug bacteria are reported frequently in the media as these dangerous infections continue to spread in the U. S. and around the world. The April 28, 2009 episode of the Oprah (http://www. staph-infection-resources. com/mrsa-superbugs. html) Show featured the growing problem of MRSA and other superbugs. Oprah, with the help of Dr. Mehmet Oz M. D., also revealed the dangers of flesh eating bacteria (also called necrotizing fasciitis). NBA all-star Grant Hill, who contracted an MRSA infection in 2003, was also featured on the Oprah Show.



Drug resistant Staph infections like MRSA are the most common type of superbug. Staph and MRSA bacteria infect 1.2 million hospital patients each year according to a 2007 study by the Association for Professionals in Infection and Epidemiology (APIC). MRSA can now also be found in gyms, schools, locker rooms and homes.



Superbug infections are potentially deadly and are becoming increasingly difficult to treat because of the limited number of treatment options. MRSA superbug bacteria have learned how to resist and become immune to Methicillin and other antibiotic drugs. Despite the dangers and growing prevalence of superbugs, people can take specific steps to prevent infections and minimize the risks of encountering these contagious bacteria.



Written by Microbiologist and Staph bacteria researcher Michelle Moore, the Superbug Survival Guide lists dozens of steps to prevent MRSA and other superbug infections. The guide book focuses on MRSA and details a variety of increased risk activities and how to limit exposure to these superbug bacteria. Additionally, the Superbug Survival Guide provides a comprehensive review of all available infection treatment options.



For additional information on superbugs, MRSA infections and their prevention and treatment, visit the company’s website at www. Staph-Infection-Resources. com. The Superbug Recovery Guide and other informational resources on MRSA are also available from the company’s website.

Don't Let Cold and Flu Season Trap You Inside

Don't Let Cold and Flu Season Trap You Inside



Black Forest Corporation has developed a new hi-tec hydrophobic, antibacterial Health Mask for protecting against Colds and Flu, Allergies and Cold Weather. The patent pending design provides an alternative to hot, uncomfortable masks that cut into your ears. Features include individual custom comfort fit and are available in a variety of whimsical patterns that appeal to all age groups.



Forest, VA (PRWEB) November 21, 2005



Black Forest Corporation, Lynchburg, Virginia, a company that specializes in creating unique products, has recently developed a hi-tech, anti-bacterial Health Mask for Cold, Flu Allergy, and Cold Weather Protection.



According to a company representative, “while some of our masks may appear whimsical, don’t Be fooled! They are constructed of the latest state-of-the-art, ultra soft hydrophobic materials that wick moisture away from the body to make our masks cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. During manufacture, the fibers of this revolutionary material are embedded with a “permanent” antibacterial treatment that remains in the fabric for up to 100 washings. And unlike other hot uncomfortable masks that cut into your ears, the patent pending custom fit design provides hours of comfort”.



The motivation for developing a mask alternative was initially due to years of dealing with severe allergies. However, the inspiration for the mask’s appearance was greatly influenced by a student project investigating methods of reducing absences in school and the workplace. While the study concluded that wearing a health mask is the most effective means of defending and protecting against the spread of cold and flu germs, it also dealt with the difficulty of getting most Americans to wear a health mask. They further concluded the only way that would happen was to create a mask that Americans would want to wear… masks that would appeal to an individual’s interests and personality. These findings prompted BFC to take their patent pending comfort mask design one step further by offering a variety of patterns ranging from bugs and dinosaurs for children to flowers for the gardener, skulls and roses for the biker, and sports for the sports fan… and in the interest of making the wearing experience even more enjoyable, created antibacterial aroma mists specially formulated for use with their masks.



Following a year of development and market tests at festivals, the company launched its web site in September 2005. “Although it takes months to build web site rank and search engine familiarity, customers have found us. The demand has come from all over the country including the hurricane areas and Hawaii. Sales include a high percentage of reorders and initial orders for entire families, for friends and for employees. Additionally, customers have provided testimonials of their effectiveness and the fun they have wearing them, even when being worn to a restaurant reopening on Bourbon Street following the devastation”.



The masks and mists target individuals of all ages who suffer from allergies, Asthma, low immune system and those wishing to protect themselves from airborne effluents and germs. The CDC and many Health organizations now recommend that masks be worn to protect against colds and flu. A growing number of hospitals now request that all visitors wear a mask.



Based on customers’ initial reaction and response, the company believes their unique products answer an important need…products that Americans will want to wear. The masks are washable, affordable, easy to carry, provide a custom, comfort fit, can last for years, and are Made In The USA. They can be seen at www. BreatheHealthy. net

Seaview Resort & Spa, a Marriott Resort in Southern New Jersey, Takes Environmentally Friendly Actions

Seaview Resort & Spa, a Marriott Resort in Southern New Jersey, Takes Environmentally Friendly Actions



Seaview Resort & Spa, a Marriott resort in New Jersey is taking environmentally friendly actions to become a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary and help preserve the Diamondback Terrapins.



Galloway, NJ (PRWEB) August 21, 2008



As part of Marriott Golf's recent mandate program whereby 34 managed golf properties throughout North America and the Caribbean will become Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuaries by the end of 2008, Seaview Resort & Spa is doing its part to help preserve the environment by protecting a species of special concern in the State of New Jersey.



Each year, Seaview Resort & Spa's famed Bay Course is inhabited by nesting Diamondback Terrapins, a species of turtles native to the brackish coastal swamps of eastern and southern United States. Although Seaview has always proactively advised golfers to be especially mindful of the turtles while playing, this year the golf course resort in Southern New Jersey has taken even greater measures. To help protect these special turtles, Seaview has created several excluder traps, which are placed over nesting sites within bunkers throughout the course. These environmentally friendly excluder traps keep other animals, such as crows and foxes, from digging up turtle eggs and also prevent golfers from accidentally walking on nests while on the Bay Course.



In addition to building excluder traps for the Diamondbacks, Seaview has recently partnered with The Wetlands Institute in Stone Harbor, an organization dedicated to promoting the conservation and preservation of coastal ecosystems. As part of the partnership, this environmentally friendly hotel made a $500 donation to the Institute and has "adopted a turtle." The money will be used to buy a transmitter for the adopted baby turtle, which will allow the Institute to monitor the turtle over the next couple of years and use the information for their ongoing research.



"Working with The Wetlands Institute and building the excluder traps to help protect the Diamondbacks has been a significant part of our Audubon Certification process," said Kevin Tansey, Bay Course Superintendent at Seaview Resort & Spa. "Our entire staff is thrilled to be participating in this program, and we hope it encourages our guests to do their part to save and protect the environment."



About Seaview Resort & Spa

Seaview Resort & Spa is an environmentally friendly Marriott hotel and one of the premier resort destinations in the Northeast Region, located minutes from Atlantic City's casinos, beaches and boardwalk and within easy driving time of Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York. Situated on 670 acres, with 27,000 square feet of conference and meeting space suitable for all types of functions, the Seaview Spa & Resort features 36 holes of championship golf on two of New Jersey's oldest and most prestigious courses, the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa, an indoor swimming pool, health club, tennis, and gourmet and casual dining. Seaview's golf facilities also include a John Jacobs/Shelby Futch Golf Academy and beautifully groomed natural-grass practice facilities. Also located nearby to this New Jersey shore resort is the Marriott Vacation Club International's Fairway Villas.

California has Most Transgender Friendly Laws in U. S

California has Most Transgender Friendly Laws in U. S.



California has most transgender friendly laws in U. S. AB 1400 and AB 1586 add to strong set of existing anti-discrimination laws.



San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 3, 2006



On January 1, 2006 two new laws solidified California’s leadership role as the most protective state for transgender rights in the nation. The laws, sponsored by Equality California (EQCA), were AB 1400 (the Civil Rights Act of 2005) and AB 1586 (the Insurance Gender Non-Discrimination Act). AB 1400, authored by Santa Cruz Assemblyman John Laird, amended California’s public accommodation law to make clear that transgender people are protected. AB 1586, authored by Assemblyman Paul Koretz, prohibits discrimination against transgender people by the insurance industry, including healthcare insurers.



“By protecting transgender people and our families in education, employment, housing, foster care, insurance, and public accommodation, the legislature is saying very clearly that California supports diversity and inclusion,” said Danny Kirchoff, EQCA’s Transgender Equality California Project Manager. “Across the state, employers, schools, businesses, and government agencies are taking common-sense steps to create non-discriminatory environments.”



After decades in which transgender people had little protection against even the most flagrant acts of discrimination, these laws establish that California embraces transgender people equally and provides effective remedies for discrimination. A 2003 report released by the Transgender Law Center (TLC) and the National Center for Lesbian Rights, Trans Realities, documented the high rates of discrimination experienced by transgender people. Survey respondents reported discrimination in employment (49%), public accommodation (38%), housing (32%), and health care (31%).



“Even today, transgender people face discrimination in virtually every institution in the state, but these laws provide incredibly powerful tools for creating lasting social change,” said Christopher Daley, Director of TLC. “While it will take some time for the effects of these laws to be fully felt in individuals’ lives, California’s elected officials are to be commended for once again leading the nation on fairness and equality.”



Equality California ( http://www. eqca. org (http://www. eqca. org)) EQCA is California’s LGBT civil rights and advocacy organization. Equality California leads efforts for LGBT civil rights at the state level through an array of strategies including sponsoring legislation and leading efforts to ensure their passage, lobbying legislators and other government officials, building coalitions, and empowering other organizations and individuals to engage in the political process.



Transgender Law Center ( http://www. transgenderlawcenter. org (http://www. transgenderlawcenter. org)) The Transgender Law Center (TLC) is a civil rights organization advocating for California’s transgender communities. TLC utilizes direct legal services, community organizing, media and public policy advocacy, and educational opportunities to advance the rights and safety of diverse transgender communities.

The Reason Most Wealth-building Books & Seminars Actually Keep You Broke

The Reason Most Wealth-building Books & Seminars Actually Keep You Broke



Best-selling author Randy Gage, affectionately called the “Jedi Master of Prosperity” by his fans, reveals why many wealth building books and seminars actually keep people broke or only allow them short-term success.



Miami, FL (PRWEB) April 15, 2004 -



– In this age of “no-money-down” real estate, “how-to-earn” millions online, “how-to” make money in the stock market, and other “how-to” books, audio albums and seminars, people are bombarded everyday with information on how to create easy wealth and success. And while it seems that everyone should be a millionaire without winning the lottery, best-selling prosperity author Randy Gage, says that most how-to-books, seminars and audio albums actually keep people broke.



According to Gage, the reason most books and how-to seminars fail is that they are missing the number one core component to wealth—the belief system of being worthy of riches and success.



In a recent interview with Mr. Gage, he tells a story about when he was poor and he wanted nothing more than to be wealthy. “I remember back in the day watching late-night infomercials on how to make millions, while sitting on my floor, because I had to sell all my furniture and I was eating macaroni and cheese 3 times a day. And I could have bought any of those programs, or I could have bought all of those programs. But I still would have been sick, broke, and stupid. Because I didn’t change my belief system. I didn’t understand that I hated rich people. I didn’t understand I was sabotaging my success. I didn’t understand that I didn’t believe I was worthy. So no matter what I would have bought, I still would have been broke or only reached short-term success.”



Randy, a former dishwasher and high school dropout, is now a self-made multi-millionaire who travels around the world, speaking to millions of people on how to break out of lack-programming about wealth and self-limiting beliefs that derail success. For more than 15 years, Randy Gage has been studying the mindset necessary to achieve and maintain great wealth. He applies the connection between thought and circumstance, and the spiritual laws of prosperity to help people transform their lives to achieve their dreams of a life of abundance. He is a recognized expert in the arena of success, prosperity and mind-body development and has authored over 40 works, including the "Prosperity Mind" and "Accept Your Abundance" books, and the best selling audio albums "The Midas Mentality" and "Prosperity."



Due to popular, Gage created a weekend program called the Prosperity Power Experience, so that people could learn the secret to building lasting wealth and living a happier more fulfilling life.



At GageÂ’s Prosperity Power Experience weekend event, he reveals to the participants:



•Five reasons they may unknowingly be sabotaging their own success and what to do about it;



•How childhood programming could be affecting them from becoming wealthy as a grownup;



•The reason many organized religions and the government want to keep people broke;



•The blockbuster movie they loved, which subconsciously programmed them that money is bad, rich people are evil, and it is spiritual to be poor;



•The difference between how poor people think and how wealthy people do;



•How to apply the circulation law of prosperity;



•How to use creativity to get all the bills paid;



•Why many success books and seminars actually cause people to stay sick, broke, and ignorant;



•Ways to identify and eliminate negative patterns that keep poor people poor;



•How he applied all of these principles to make an extra $250,000 in twenty minutes; and,



•How they can actually program their own mind to attain great wealth, better health, and lasting happiness in life!



Gage is a former Chamber of Commerce president, civic leader, 10 year member of the National Speakers Association, and has been featured on talk shows, radio shows, and interviewed by many print publications including Success magazine. Randy is currently conducting a nationwide tour with his Prosperity Power Experience weekend. Visit www. ProsperityPowerExperience. com for upcoming locations, more information about the event, and to purchase tickets. Or go online to take the “Prosperity IQ” quiz at www. ProsperityPowerInstitute. com/IQ (http://www. ProsperityPowerInstitute. com/IQ) to see you might have a negative association with money and success.



Randy Gage is available for media interviews, by arrangement. Please contact Alicia Gregg, Director of Media Relations, Prime Concepts Group, mailto:agregg@primeconcepts. com or 316-942-1111 to schedule an interview with one of the most prolific authors of our century.

Changing Student Health Insurance - A New Thanksgiving Tradition

Changing Student Health Insurance - A New Thanksgiving Tradition



MedSave. com notices a growoing national trend for college students to change health plans over the Thanksgiving holiday and offers some possible explanations.



(PRWEB) November 25, 2004



MedSave. com is gearing up for a lesser-known Thanksgiving tradition. Thousands of college students change their health insurance plans during their trip home to see parents this week. From the Wednesday before Thanksgiving through the following weekend, online and telephone requests from students and their parents have come in at a record pace. This trend has grown each year since the enrollment firmÂ’s launch in 1997. Despite efforts to take more calls and process more applications, the firm still expects a backlog of business on Thanksgiving weekend. Other enrollment firms report similar trends. MedSave. com focuses on low cost health insurance, so it serves a higher percentage of students than some other enrollment firms. In addition, students are more likely than adults to enroll for a health plan online rather than traditional paper methods.



The exact reasons for this national trend are not known but Tony Novak, OnlineAdviser for MedSave. com, speculates on three possibilities:



First, some college students who enrolled in the collegeÂ’s on-campus health plan in September now realize that they want to be treated by other medical providers outside the college or need health insurance while traveling and visiting parents and friends back home.



Second, parents who covered their college students on an employer-provided family health plan found that there may be too many loopholes in the coverage to be worthwhile. The nation’s largest health plans pay a lower level of benefits for “out-of-network charges” that affects college students living far away from home.



Finally, it might simply be that this is the first serious conversation about family financial issues that families have had since their child left home in September.



Since student health plans and short-term health insurance plans at MedSave. com cover all charges equally – regardless of the location or medical provider – these are an attractive option by comparison. Since students as a group are a healthy bunch, the cost of this coverage is minimal.



Novak estimates that the national average health insurance cost for a college student costs is about $900. The disadvantage of student health insurance plans, he points out, is that ordinary small expenses like over-the-counter drugs and minimal doctors expenses are not covered. Most students elect insurance with a $500 or $1000 deductible to keep the premium cost down. Even with out-of-pocket costs added to health insurance premiums, the cost of providing health care to students is only a fraction of the cost of covering other adults.

Top Transportation Officials, Technology Leaders Call for "Intelligent" Infrastructure Investment in Economic Stimulus

Top Transportation Officials, Technology Leaders Call for "Intelligent" Infrastructure Investment in Economic Stimulus



Congress urged to fund intelligent systems and technologies that will provide immediate economic Stimulus while improving long-term productivity, safety, and the environment.



Washington, DC (PRWEB) December 18, 2008



A coalition of top transportation officials and technology leaders called on Congress today to make an "intelligent" infrastructure investment as part of economic stimulus legislation by funding intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and technologies that will provide lasting improvements to the nation's economic productivity, transportation infrastructure, and environment while also creating jobs and providing an immediate economic boost.



"As Congress and the incoming Administration prepare to invest billions of dollars in the nation's infrastructure, it is vital that this stimulus plan also puts our nation on the road to long-term economic recovery and competitiveness," said Scott F. Belcher, president and CEO of the Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America) which is leading the coalition. "ITS applications like intelligent intersections with synchronized traffic lights, weigh-in-motion truck inspections, electronic tolling, collision avoidance systems, smart transit vehicles, and real-time information about traffic conditions and travel options will make transportation safer, more efficient, and will lead to greater productivity and a cleaner environment."



The letter to Congressional leaders, signed by senior transportation officials from California, New York, Michigan, and Oregon; prominent industry groups including AAA, the American Public Transportation Association (APTA), Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), and American Highway Users Alliance; and companies from the automotive, technology, engineering, and related industries, calls for "a strong economic package that makes a continuing commitment to 'intelligent' infrastructure investment," which "will not only put us closer to fixing our economy, but will enhance the quality of life for our citizens, the productivity of our workers, and the health of our environment." A copy of the letter is available at http://www. itsa. org/washingtonreps. html (http://www. itsa. org/washingtonreps. html).



According to California Department of Transportation Chief Deputy Director and ITS America Board Chair Randell H. Iwasaki, "Investing in ITS technologies will help reduce traffic congestion, prevent accidents before they happen, provide more effective incident and emergency response, and reduce energy use and emissions. It is critical that we optimize this investment in our nation's infrastructure by providing resources to deploy technologies that will save lives, time, money, and preserve the environment in addition to creating jobs and economic growth."



The Intelligent Transportation Society of America is the leading advocate for technologies that improve the safety, security and efficiency of the nation's surface transportation system. Our members include private corporations, public agencies, and academic institutions involved in the research, development, and design of transportation technologies that enhance safety, increase mobility, and sustain the environment.

LegalView to Re-Launch Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis Portal to Provide Even More Important Information

LegalView to Re-Launch Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis Portal to Provide Even More Important Information



LegalView. com would like to inform readers of its newly re-launched NSF information portal, with included attorney referral services. The new site includes more important information and resources dealing with NSF causes, symptoms and treatment than ever before.



Denver, CO (PRWEB) November 2, 2007



LegalView. com, your complete online resource for everything legal, would like to inform readers that they can now find even more complete, accurate information on the troubling medical condition Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF) at nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis. legalview. com (http://nsf-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis. legalview. com/). NSF is a rare medical condition that has come to almost always be linked with exposure to the element gadolinium, an element that is present in radiocontrast dyes used during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Because NSF is still a fairly new condition, symptoms can be difficult for some doctors to diagnose. As a service to victims of NSF, LegalView. com is proud to announce the launch of much larger and more extensive collection of information and resources at the newly reformatted NSF & Gadolinium Information (http://nsf-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis. legalview. com/gadolinium-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis. aspx) portal.



First identified in 1997, NSF occurs only in a few patients -- those who have a serious kidney disease and have undergone MRI or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) tests. Many scientists believe NSF is caused by exposure to gadolinium, used as a dye in MRI/MRA tests, as argued in a January 2006 article published in the Oxford University Press' journal Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation. In response, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has already recommended that doctors avoid gadolinium and MRI/MRAs in general, in patients with kidney failure. Researchers in the United States and Europe are working to determine whether the substance should be banned altogether.



Visitors who would like to learn more about NSF, gadolinium exposure and related health concerns are invited to visit LegalView. com's newly re-launched gadolinium and NSF information portal. Recognizing that NSF will be a public health problem for decades, LegalView has established a collection of original articles on the disease; a glossary of terms; up-to-date news articles; FDA alerts; and jury verdicts and settlements. In addition to new features, such as detailed information about the companies that manufacture gadolinium dyes, as well as treatment resources, visitors to the NSF portal can utilize the free NSF lawyer (http://nsf-nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis. legalview. com/nephrogenic-systemic-fibrosis-lawyer. aspx) referral service to find a NSF attorney in their state.



The NSF portal is just part of LegalView's collection of free, comprehensive information on the legal issues important to Americans. Visitors with broader legal concerns can use LegalView. com's many information portals to help them find a brain injury lawyer (http://brain-injury. legalview. com/), a construction accident attorney (http://construction. legalview. com/), or a mesothelioma law firm (http://mesothelioma. legalview. com/find-mesothelioma-law-firm. aspx). Along with the attorney referral services for these different issues, readers can find original, factual and clearly written information; the latest news and research, including blogs dedicated to a specific legal issue; government information and releases; and guides to relevant legal and medical terms.



LegalView. com is a free service to the public, brought to you by Legal WebTV Network, LLC, a Limited Liability Corporation created by a group of highly respected national law firms: Anapol Schwartz; Brent Coon and Associates; Burg Simpson; Cohen, Placitella and Roth; James F. Humphreys and Associates; Lopez McHugh; and Thornton and Naumes. For more information on the accomplishments and track records of LegalView. com's distinguished sponsoring law firms and to get in touch with LegalView attorneys, visit LegalView at http://www. legalview. com/ (http://www. legalview. com/).
