T1 Payments, a leader in high-risk merchant processing, is donating to the South Florida Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden.

MIAMI (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
During these unprecedented times, T1 Payments, a leader in high-risk merchant processing, is donating to the South Florida Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. Due to Miami-Dade County's Safer at Home order, many local municipalities are closed and experiencing a loss of income, including the Fairchild Garden.
For over 80 years, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden has focused on ensuring tropical plant diversity by exploring, explaining, and conserving tropical plants from all over the world. The 83-acre garden features a butterfly conservatory dubbed Wings of the Tropics that is filled with flowering plants that attract both native and exotic butterflies. With vivid colors like sky blue, indigo, and amber, Fairchild Gardens is known to its fans and followers as Fairchild. The captivating water features, large trees, and colorful blooms make Fairchild one of the most well-known botanic gardens around the world.
Enriching the lives of many with a diversity of plant species and unique shades of green and amber, Fairchild, with T1 Payments support for the Gardens and other donors makes it so the Gardens' beautiful plants and colors will live and thrive on moving into the future. Fairchild has launched a new online resource page, #MyFairchild, to keep all guests connected to the Garden.
Providing a place for peaceful reflection in the gardens surrounded by shades of green and amber, T1 Payments' Fairchild contribution will help the garden oasis provide solace to its members and the greater South Florida community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
"We're glad to help the South Florida community during this time of uncertainty," said a T1 Payments representative. "During social isolation, we encourage everyone to connect with the Fairchild message by learning from their wellness tips, outdoor home activities, and more."
While many miss visiting the Fairchild Garden, all members and guests will have the opportunity to heal and repose with Fairchild's amber, purple, and blue exotic plants online. T1 Payments is proud to support the Miami Fairchild Garden community.

ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration has been providing disaster restoration and cleaning services for homes and businesses in the Denver metropolitan area and Elbert Country since 1989. They recently launched their updated website with a fresh design, user-friendly navigation, and mobile responsiveness to display on all mobile devices. Their website was redesigned by Proceed Innovative, a digital marketing and web design professional based in the Chicago, IL area.
The Need for a New Website
ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration needed to overhaul their website because the design was outdated, and the navigation was not very user-friendly. Their website was also not responsive to mobile devices. The new website design features better navigation and an updated design that incorporates the newest ServiceMaster branding colors and logos. The dropdown top navigation menu makes it very convenient for users to find the disaster restoration services they need, and they can also use the website's search function. There is a contact form in the right navigation menu for each page so users can quickly submit a form.
The most important element of the new web design is the mobile responsiveness that allows it to display and function properly on all mobile devices. More people search for products and services online using their smartphone or other mobile device which makes it very important for websites to be mobile friendly. Mobile users can navigate the website for ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration and even use the call button on the pages to call right away for emergency services.
About ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration
ServiceMaster Fire and Water Restoration has been serving the homes and businesses of the Denver metropolitan area and the surrounding areas in Elbert County Colorado with disaster restoration and cleaning services since 1989. They specialize in water damage restoration, fire damage restoration, mold remediation, and other commercial cleaning and damage restoration services. They started as a one man, one van operation but quickly grew to have a full staff and large fleet of vans and trucks. Each of their technicians is IICRC certified to provide quality disaster restoration services in commercial and residential settings. They have also been a Star Member of the Better Business Bureau since 2003.

A Safe Haven is raising the bar again by expanding our professionally managed real estate portfolio in our integrated continuum of housing which includes transitional, supportive, affordable, senior and military veteran housing in safe, beautiful and healthy settings," said Neli Vazquez Rowland, President of A Safe Haven Foundation. "We are so proud to have the opportunity to add another project to our network that will help build capacity among our beautiful award-winning homes for our nation's heroes and to make our vision of another new affordable veteran housing project in Chicago's North Lawndale Community, a reality. I would like to give a special thanks to A Safe Haven Foundation's Boards for their leadership and support throughout this process. We are grateful to have had the support of Governor J.B. Pritzker and Mayor Lori Lightfoot, and to have partnered with the US Veterans Administration, US Housing and Urban Development, Illinois Housing Community Development Authority, and to The Rauner Family. Bruce and Diana Rauner. The Rauners were one of our original and ongoing supporters who took the leap of faith in helping to back our cause over 20 years ago. Since we started we have helped over 20,000 military veterans in crisis and their families get their lives back on track throughout the years. We are grateful to have had the privilege of working with so many committed and caring national, and local leader and veteran advocates. We could not have done this without all of their espirit de corps commitment and support on behalf of our military veterans and communities in need."

Best Friends Animal Society Offers Bi-Lingual Pet Preparedness Plan

KANAB, UTAH (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
It has been reported that two cats in New York have tested positive for COVID-19. While we are still learning about the virus spreading from people to animals, veterinary experts agree there is no evidence that pets can transmit the disease to people. 
  
"There is no reason to be concerned about your pet giving you COVID-19 as there have been no reported cases of it spreading from pet to person," said Dr. Erin Katribe, medical director of Best Friends Animal Society. "Instead, it is important to practice social distancing and create a plan for the continued maintenance of the pets in your care if you're unable to leave the house, too sick to function at home, or become hospitalized." 
  
Best Friends Animal Society has assembled a Pet Preparedness Plan, available in English and Spanish, to help pet parents ensure that they have the resources, supplies and plans in place in the event of illness. Best Friends also offers remote access to veterinary consultation services through their Vet Access app.  
  
Specific recommendations from the CDC state that while a person infected with COVID-19 is symptomatic, they should: 
Maintain separation from household animals as they would with other household members 
Avoid direct contact with pets, including petting, snuggling, being kissed or licked, sleeping in the same location, and sharing food 
  
In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, service animals should be permitted to remain with their handlers. If possible, a household member should be designated to care for pets in the home and should follow standard hand-washing practices before and after interacting with the household animal.  
  
If a person with COVID-19 must care for pets, they should ensure they wash their hands before and after caring for pets. 
  
About Best Friends Animal Society 
Best Friends Animal Society is a leading national animal welfare organization dedicated to ending the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters. In addition to running lifesaving programs in partnership with nearly 3,000 animal welfare groups across the country, Best Friends has lifesaving centers in New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Salt Lake City, and operates the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals. Founded in 1984, Best Friends is a pioneer in the no-kill movement and has helped reduce the number of animals killed in shelters nationwide from an estimated 17 million per year to around 733,000. That means there are still about 2,000 dogs and cats killed every day in shelters, just because they don't have safe places to call home. We are determined to bring the country to no-kill by the year 2025. Working collaboratively with shelters, rescue groups, other organizations and you, we will end the killing and Save Them All. To check out our community lifesaving dashboard and for more information, visit bestfriends.org.

Hardware packs are available for a number of the projects, including the Modern Adirondack Chair.

Able Services joins with six other organizations in the contract cleaning sector to establish the Cleaning Coalition of America. The Coalition represents the needs of an often-overlooked sector playing a vital role keeping essential services operating during the coronavirus crisis.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
Able Services joins with six other organizations in the contract cleaning sector to establish the Cleaning Coalition of America. The Coalition represents the needs of an often-overlooked sector playing a vital role keeping essential services operating during the coronavirus crisis. As the country moves past this crisis to get back to business, the contract cleaning sector will again be on the front lines. Cleaners will be disinfecting workspaces, schools, airplanes, shopping centers, stadiums and other public spaces to prepare them for widespread use, reestablishing the public's trust in the systems that underpin society.
"Health and safety is the number one priority for our employees, clients and communities. We're looking to preserve jobs and maintain access to much-needed personal protective equipment for our workers, so that they can continue to do their jobs which are an essential part of getting the American economy moving again," said J. Paul Saccone, Chief Executive Officer of Able Services, a Coalition Board Member.
The contract cleaning service industry employs more than one million workers in every state in the country, and it has been hard hit by the economic impact of the coronavirus crisis. Accordingly, the Coalition is asking Congress and the Administration to support targeted measures that will help ensure the continuity of business operations and the employment of its essential workforce.

End-to-end Student Safety & Device Management Leader Extends its iPad & Chromebook Classroom Management solution to the Windows & Mac Platforms

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
Securly, the market leader in end-to-end comprehensive student safety & device management, today announced the early availability of its Classroom (formerly Chrometools) product for the Windows and Mac platforms. This release makes its industry-leading product support all the top platforms on the market.
School districts have always had a heterogeneous mix of devices ranging from iPad and Android tablets for the younger students, to Chromebook, Windows and Mac desktops for middle & high schoolers and staff. Securly made its foray into the Classroom management space by acquiring the Classroom & MDM products from TechPilot Labs, an Atlanta-based startup founded by Jarrett Volzer, who now serves as Securly's General Manager of Classroom and MDM product lines. At the time of the acquisition, Securly was focused on the Apple iPad and Google Chromebook as the go-to-market classroom-platforms of choice.
The Classroom product allows teachers to better manage a classroom with students on their Google Chromebooks. A teacher can push website URLs to the entire classroom, lock all the screens temporarily, create a locked-down session where browsing is restricted to only certain sites, monitor the entire classroom session remotely using thumbnail screenshots of pages that are open on the student devices, and close unneeded tabs. Teachers therefore benefit from being able to monitor and guide the students during an online Chromebook classroom session. The MDM product achieves similar classroom management functionality for the Apple iPad devices managed by the school.
After seeing dramatic success with this product & acquisition, where Classroom is now the second most sold product for Securly among the various safety and device management solutions it offers, Securly saw a lot of demand for classroom management for Windows and Mac based laptops as well.
"While Chromebooks still account for a large percentage of the student deployments, our customers have told us that they have a number of deployments of Mac and Windows devices too, for which teachers would also benefit from powerful classroom management tools. Porting our popular Classroom product to these platforms just made sense. When added to the classroom management tools we provide to iPads through our MDM offering, we now support all four popular student platforms," Volzer explained.
School districts can now purchase Securly Classroom licenses on a per-student or a per-device basis and cover any of the supported operating systems, or bundle Classroom with Securly's other student safety and device management solutions for a comprehensive end-to-end solution.
Securly pioneered 100% cloud-based device-agnostic filtering & student-safety for schools starting with its flagship Filter product founded in 2013. This release brings its classroom-management solution to also become device-agnostic and support all the four top platforms in education - iPads, Chromebook, Windows, and Mac.
Securly is accepting early interests for Classroom for Windows & Mac. Please contact sales via its website http://www.securly.com or emailing sales@securly.com

Northeast Delta Human Services Authority announced today that it would be launching a daily inspirational call as part of its Faith Partnership Initiative.
The agency's Faith Partnership Initiative exists as a means of engaging with faith-based communities to help enrich traditional behavioral health services in a unique way that government alone cannot. As the number of COVID-19 cases in northeast Louisiana continues to rise, Northeast Delta HSA has called on regional faith leaders to help share a message of faith and hope as the agency employs science, evidence-based treatment, and preventive practices.

"This pandemic is only increasing the level of anxiety and trauma for those who are already dealing with mental illness, developmental disability, addiction, and primary health challenges," said Sizer. "And as the region's safety net service provider and trusted source of information for many across northeast Louisiana, it is essential for us to do everything we can to help people remain hopeful and focused on our collective regional recovery efforts."

The legendary co-founder of The Beach Boys and lead vocalist, Mike Love, is selling his glamorous Southern California mansion. It is featured this week at TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.

POMPANO BEACH, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
"Beach Boy Mike Love's Southern California Mansion"
Still touring and giving motivation to another generation of those who dream about having "Fun, Fun, Fun" with one eye out for the next good wave and the other on bikinied "California Girls," The Beach Boys' last original member, Mike Love, is still touring and belting out the "Good Vibrations" songs at age 79. Love, co-writer of many of the songs that were the California Sound and lead vocalist, is selling his Rancho Santa Fe, California estate now that he spends his off-the-road time at his home at Lake Tahoe. It is priced at $8.65 million.
Mike Love first appeared with his three cousins Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson and friend Al Jardine as a musical group in the summer of 1961 under the name The Pendletones, but discovered that their name had been changed to The Beach Boys on their first single, "Surfin." Late that year, "Surfin" hit the Top 40 on local and later the national Billboard charts, the beginning of the California Sound. Prolific songwriters, mostly Brian and Mike, the group stood out for its staying power, even during the onslaught of The Beatles. It also put California, particularly Southern California, on the map of imagination full of sunny days, good waves and pretty girls far better than the state's Chamber of Commerce. "Surfin' USA," "Surfin' Safari," "Surfer Girl" and other great beach songs and movies soared in popularity during the 1960s. But the group, with their own unique, easygoing sound, continued to attract new fans long after the surf culture had run its course.
High on a hill overlooking the mountains, ocean, city and golf courses on 3.5 acres, Love's 17,515-square-foot home is located on one of the best plots in the gated community of Fairbanks Ranch. Much like a private resort, who needs a beach when you have a pool that encircles a spa that feels like being on a private island accessed by a bridge? The tropical grounds also have a swim-up bar, fire pit and tennis court - all with staggering long-distance views. Inside rooms are vast and surfaced with elegant finishes. There are eight bedrooms, nine baths, a chef's eat-in kitchen where many people can join in the cooking with plenty of room to spare. It also opens to a large terrace. Built for grand or informal entertaining, there is also a complete outdoor kitchen. The upper terrace overlooks the pool terrace with a tropical path to the tennis court and lockers below. Though it may not have a beach, there is plenty of water including a three-tiered fountain that was designed after the fountains of Villa d'Este in Lake Como, Italy.
Legendary co-founder of The Beach Boys and lead vocalist, Mike Love, is selling his glamorous Southern California mansion. Priced at $8.65 million, the listing agent is Linda Sansone of Willis Allan Real Estate, Rancho Santa Fe, California.

Diapers have been tough to come by with so many people stocking up. If you're a Peejamas parent, this hard-to-find commodity is none of your concern. No diapers? No problem!

SALT LAKE CITY (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
Peejamas are the adorable potty training jammies made with ultra-absorbent liners that soak up urine. Third party tested, they reliably hold up to 10 ounces of liquid eliminating the need to wear bulky diapers or training pants. Peejamas aren't just great for nighttime training. These specially designed garments are 10 times more absorbent than normal daytime training pants.
Peejamas are the comfortable and durable way to potty train: 
Made with OEKO-TEX certified fabrics, they're 100% safe for the skin. 
They include high quality thread counts, so don't be afraid to wash them over 300+ times. 
It's one of the few pj brands sold in the U.S. that doesn't soak fabric in fire-retardant chemicals.
Peejamas is not your typical garment company. It's making effective, environmental progress by reducing the harmful, carcinogenic waste found in landfills. According to the EPA, 20 billion diapers end up in landfills each year. It takes 500 years for disposable diapers to decompose and the composition often contains known carcinogens.
The brand is more committed than ever to continue to expand its positive impact on the environment while helping tens of thousands of children each year:
Over the past two years, Peejamas eliminated the equivalent of nearly 16,000,000 diapers from landfills! That is nearly 1,000,000 pounds of disposable diaper waste that has been removed.
Peejamas is saving more than the environment with this kid-friendly clothing. Parents save money in the process by not having to buy diapers/disposable training pants each week.
Peejamas are one third the cost of disposable diapers per use and keep their absorbency up to 300 washes.
The brand is making further contributions by donating a portion of every sale to the CDC Foundation and UN Foundation to support the fight against COVID-19.
For more information, visit https://www.peejamas.com/.
About Peejamas: 
Founded in 2016, Peejamas are the stylish, functional and affordable sleepwear for your child's potty training years. They do more than put you at ease from changing wet night clothes and bed sheets. Did you know parents will pay over $2,000 during the course of their child's potty-training journey? That doesn't include night-time diapers, which cost, on average, 50 percent more than standard day-time diapers. You're also spending thousands of dollars on something that contributes billions of pounds of landfill waste every year. The brand is looking to change the way you approach potty training with the super absorbent, quality kids pajamas that benefit everyone, including Mother Nature.

Nsure.com, America's first digital insurance agency founded and based in Florida, has tips to help you compare the best homeowners insurance

BOCA RATON, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
As the nation and Floridians see a shred of light at the end of this pandemic tunnel and as the hurricane season quickly approaches, the need to get the most out of every dollar spent remains as critical as ever. And, when it comes to comparing homeowners insurance that's not an easy task. Simply put, things are confusing.
The insurance industry continues to rapidly move online and that's good news for consumers because it will result in a streamlined buying experience and saving money. Florida-based Nsure.com, http://www.nsure.com, America's first digital insurance agency, is helping lead the way. Using artificial intelligence, Nsure.com mines multiple data sources and auto-fills complicated insurance applications that are sent to over 40 top-rated insurers. That allows consumers to compare the best coverage and quotes side by side, apples to apples as they say. Thanks to Nsure.com's real-time connection with insurance companies, consumers can instantly and transparently compare real, not estimated, quotes from multiple insurers.
"If you've ever shopped for homeowners insurance, you know it can be complicated. Dealing with offline agents and online lead generators can limit your choices and bombard you with offers that aren't real. Besides not getting real quotes, you only get offered a group of limited insurers that are being pushed or sold and they may not be the best available for your needs," said Wojtek Gudaszewski, CEO of Nsure.com. "As an online digital agency, we can help consumers see, from the comfort of their home or office, exact comparisons among multiple insurers, calculate their average savings for your policy needs and help them feel confident they are getting the correct level of insurance for their home. And, in doing so, customers can feel confident they are receiving actionable quotes from the nation's highest rated insurers as graded by independent organizations such as A.M. Best http://www.ambest.com, and DemoTech, http://www.demotech.com/."
In considering an insurer, Nsure.com also recommends considering the following criteria: 

Financial strength ratings from independent rating agencies like AM Best, DemoTech.

Level/Amount of Coverage Needed (most American's are under-insured)

Online Reviews of Insurer, especially as it relates to handling claims

Know that you don't have to wait for your policy to renew, you can review anytime online and it's simple to make a change

Needless to say, price is critical so make sure you are getting real numbers that you can act on immediately

"Consumers also need to know they no longer have to wait for their insurance renewal to shop around so they can save now. So being able to shop when you want and getting quotes that work for the individual will help save money and add a secure feeling that your home is adequately covered," said Gudaszewski.
    Nsure.com is a licensed online insurance agency that utilizes state of the art digital technology and represents over 40 top-rated insurance companies. Nsure.com's mission is to empower insurance consumers by helping them choose the best carriers and policies for less, period. Nsure.com currently operates within the state of Florida with plans to expand nationwide thanks to recent strategic investment with the well-respected Reliance Global Group-- RELI. Key benefits of the Nsure.com platform include:

Simplified application process – Nsure.com uses artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies to mine multiple data sources and auto-fill complicated insurance applications, e.g. home characteristics: construction type, roof shape, roof covering, foundation type, flood zone, etc.

Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) of at least $60 billion of PPP funds to help ensure small businesses across the nation have access to these loans through their local community banks.

LANSING, MICH. (PRWEB) APRIL 25, 2020
The nation's state community bank trade associations along with the Independent Community Bankers of America advocated tirelessly over the past two weeks to set aside an allocation within the Small Business Administration (SBA) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) of at least $60 billion of PPP funds to help ensure small businesses across the nation have access to these loans through their local community banks. To accomplish this, we had to overcome the objections of the nation's largest banks to ensure that small businesses receive the support they need as Congress intended. Michigan bankers called and wrote to their Congressional Representatives and our United States Senators urging them to support additional funding for the SBA PPP to make sure many more Michigan small businesses gained access to the relief funds.
Michael Tierney, President and CEO of the Community Bankers of Michigan, commented "We applaud our members of Congress for recognizing the vital role Michigan community banks serve in supporting Main Street businesses and for listening to the advocacy of the ICBA, the Community Bankers of Michigan, and our Michigan bank executives to ensure our banks have the funds they need in the SBA PPP program to support the economic vitality of communities across the Great State of Michigan during this critical time."

Last week Redi Shade, a Knoxville area No Tools installation window treatment manufacturer began providing respirator masks to local hospitals and volunteer fire departments.
After recently relocating from California, the Tennessee company saw an opportunity to support their new local community by donating masks. After initially tapping into their supply chain to purchase masks for their own employees, they were able to secure additional amounts to donate to local hospitals and volunteer fire departments.
They were able to donate to: 

UT Medical Hospital

East Tennessee Children's Hospital

Seymour Volunteer Fire Department

Karns Volunteer Fire Department

Rural Metro Volunteer Fire Department

The company's efforts have been valuable to the Knoxville community.
"We're appreciative of the local businesses like Redi Shade giving us the masks we needed. We have been lucky to have our local partners and businesses as they have been the ones to think of us in these times," said Seymour Volunteer Fire Department Fire Chief John Linsenbigler.
Redi Shade has also been reaching out to first responders, healthcare providers, and other essential employees to help them get some shuteye during these difficult times. The company has been donating their Original Blackout shades to help these heroes get a better night's sleep.
Redi Shade, in business for almost 30 years, is a No Tools window treatment manufacturer. They offer a variety of No Tools Installation products like Original Pleated Paper, Easy Lift and Artisan Custom window shades carried at all major retailers.

Kelly Johnson, owner of the Cremation Center of Birmingham and funeral director with more than 25 years funeral home experience, sheds light on what changes people will see in dealing with the death of a loved one, during the event of a national emergency.
     No one thought the United States of America would see the day when we would see mass graves off the State of New York and funeral homes overrun with deceased family members. How could it be that a mass burial would be acceptable in the U.S.?
     Death is inevitable, it comes to us all. But somehow in our thinking, we believe that working on plans for our death may bring death upon us sooner. Do we believe that having health insurance will bring on illness? LIfe insurance, while it is very important to the financial stability of your family, is not quite the answer either.
     At the Cremation Center of Birmingham, in Alabama, it is not uncommon to see families who are not prepared to cover the cost of a $950 basic cremation. They have not saved, even when they knew a death was imminent in their family. When a national emergency causes unexpected deaths, the situation is much worse.
     What could you expect in a situation where a national emergency caused hundreds or thousands of unexpected fatalities. First, funeral homes will become pickier about what families they will help. The deceased's relative can and should expect to be queried about how they will pay for their funeral or cremation arrangements up to and including requiring payment before the remains will be picked up from the place of death.
     Another reasonable possibility, is that funeral homes will stop taking life insurance assignments. A life insurance assignment is a "promise to pay" by a life insurance company, to a funeral home or cremation center, when there has been time to process a claim on a life insurance policy. Even in the best of times, processing a life insurance claim can be a long process, taking from weeks and sometimes months for the benefits "pay out." In the event of a national crisis, that time will triple and most funeral homes and cremation centers will not wait the time it takes to receive the payment from an insurance company. The family will be asked for payment up front or the family will be denied services.
     Pre-payment to a funeral home can be risky. While many states have enacted laws to protect consumers from unscrupulous funeral establishments, people will find ways around and break the laws, to embezzle money from the families they have promised to protect. Some funeral establishments, like the Cremation Center of Birmingham, in Alabama, suggest Pre-Planning arrangements, but do not require prepayment. In this way, the family's money is secure.
     The very best way to be sure to ensure your loved ones will be able to have the proper end of life arrangements, even in the event of a national emergency, is to put enough money aside to pay for a minimum funeral or cremation arrangement and have it available to a trusted source, whom you know will have no problems releasing the funds when they become needed. A steady relative, church member, even an attorney, who can be trusted are some possible avenues to be sure the funds can be accessed quickly, when needed. Another way to be sure you could cover emergency funeral services, is to have a credit card, with a limit that would cover the minimum amount you would need in your area. There are credit cards available (for example Wal-mart) that you pre pay in order to have the credit available.
     What is a minimum funeral or cremation arrangement? The price of funeral services varies, like other expenses, depending upon where you live. For example, like Automobiles, the type of service chosen by the family will dictate the cost. There are luxury cars and "clunkers" and many models in between. If you choose a large national chain funeral home, funeral prices can be upwards of $10,000 and cremation over $5,000.00. Also be wary of low prices that seem "too good to be true." Going back to the example for the automobile, if you see an ad for a brand new vehicle for one hundred dollars, would you be skeptical that the total cost will be one hundred dollars for a new car? Perhaps your Mother once said, look for the "basic" or mid range of prices, not necessarily the lowest price, look for value. In many areas a basic cremation can be priced at near $1000.00 dollars and some family only, direct burials at near $4000.00.
     To surmise, a good "plan of action" is to be sure that as a family, there is access to at least $1,000.00 for a cremation and near $5,000.00 for a ground burial. The Cremation Center of Birmingham, in Alabama, has a basic cremation at $950.00. Keep in mind, this price for burial would not include a burial plot in a cemetery. If your family does not have access to a burial plot in a cemetery and finances were an issue, consider cremation. Cremation may seem unusual or not your family tradition, however, if you can change your thinking, to it's the "size of the container" all normal funeral functions like songs and a minister, can take place at a memorial service.
     It would be heartbreaking for most families to have their deceased loved one treated with less than the respect they deserve. A burial in "pauper's field" or a mass burial in an unmarked grave would make an already devastating situation feel unbearable. Many will say, "I can't save a thousand dollars or have a credit card I do not access." The alternative to not having a plan, is to lose the right to say what the final disposition of someone you loved will be. Without access to some form of payment, in an emergency situation, the choice will be taken from you. The Cremation Center of Birmingham, in Alabama, and others across the country exist, to be sure families have affordable options. In these uncertain times, when another emergency situation occurs, be sure your family will be ready.

Aside from the beauty and glamour, plug-in wall lights also serve to enhance night vision and provide security around the home. Ecopower Light Discusses top 10 reasons to choose plug-in wall lights.

SANTA CLARA, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 25, 2020
The use of light is an essential part of any home decor. Aside from the beauty and glamour, it also serves to enhance night vision and provide security around the home. The positioning of a light source is one of the most essential considerations in determining the effectiveness of a light. Plug-in wall lights enjoy the most flexibility in this regard.
What Are Plug-in Wall Lights?
This is a type of light that has an extension wire at the end of which is a plug. Unlike other types of wall light wiring, they do not require professional installation, nor does it present any risk. Feel free to attach them anywhere; bedsides, in the kitchen, over a desk top in the library or anywhere else. They offer more versatility than ordinary wall lights.
10 Reasons You Should Consider A Plug-in Wall Light
1. Easy to Use
Since its discovery until the present time, the ease of using such a light fixture surpasses that of other lights. This is not only because of the design structure and the simple process of plugging it into a socket. The real reason is that they are less cumbersome and do not require outside assistance.
2. Easy to Transfer
The portable nature of plug-in wall lights makes them easier to transfer from one location to another. The ease of installation and removal, and their portable nature makes them adaptable to different home arrangements. Whenever there's a need for changing the position of lights, just remove a plug-in wall light from the socket and move it to another location.
3. Serve Better Purposes
As a result of their portability and ease of operation, plug-in wall lights can be more versatile. They can act as a lamp on the table for reading purposes. They can be used as a bedroom light to ease accessibility in the room. Placing them above the kitchen table can make food preparation easier, among several other tasks.
4. Licensed Professionals Not Required
Plug-in wall lights come with a wire and a plug that makes them easy to connect to a socket. Therefore they require no outside professionals to tackles the job. This spares the homeowner stress and extra cost.
5. Less Risky to Use
One of the most important advantages of the plug-in-wall light is its inherent safety. Most of these fixtures present less danger in terms of being exposed to naked circuits or connected wires that risk electrocution. They are also less risky to operate. Homeowners need need only inspect the plug for dryness, then connect it to an empty socket to provide power.
6. Cost Effective
For the least expensive and most reliable source of movable room beautification with regard to light sources around the home, plug-in wall lights are no doubt the winners. They are not only relatively cheaper to acquire as compared to other types of lighting, but they can perform several functions, thereby reducing the cost of of acquiring multiple lighting.
7. Fashionable
Plug-in wall lights come in many different designs that complement a variety of interior designs.
8. Versatility of Designs and Colors
Above and beyond the fashionable shapes for which most plug-in wall lights are known, they also come in different colors and structures that make them attractive complements to a range of room designs.
9. Easy to Acquire
They are plentiful and come in a range of different patterns, thus guaranteeing much freedom of choice.
10. Emit Less Heat
Unlike every other kind of lighting, plug-in wall lights emit less heat and do not warm up a room unnecessarily.

Paws of War is helping veterans during COVID-19 lockdowns, supplying them with pet food, masks, and more.

NESCONSET, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 27, 2020
When disabled veteran Hank Urnaitis answered the door, he wasn't expecting Paws of War to be there, ready to help him through the pandemic. But that's just what they did. The organization, which helps veterans and animals, stopped by to provide Hank with face masks and pet food. They also teamed up with Cambridge Catering to take him some prepared meals. When they looked around, they realized that he had some safety issues on his property that needed to be addressed, so they also got busy fixing those items, too.
"Hank is a decorated veteran who we paired up a service dog with back in 2016," explains John Walis, veteran relations director of Paws of War. "We know he's humble and didn't want to take the assistance, but we wanted to give back to our veterans in need who won't ask for help. It's paramount that we are there for them and their service dogs now and in the future."
After delivering the essential items, the Paws of War team took to helping with some safety issues that needed to be done. They fixed unsafe boards in the steps leading up to his home, replaced tattered flags in his yard, and fixed an area of his fencing a tree had fallen on.
The area of the fence that was down made it impossible for Hank to allow his dog to run around the yard, adding to his stress of trying to take him out for walks each day. By repairing the fence, Hank will be able to once again allow his dog to run free in the yard. All the supplies for the repairs were provided by Paws of War, and they provided the services free of charge.
Seeing the tattered flags be replaced with new ones was the biggest perk for the veteran. Being a proud veteran, the flags were a big deal for him. The organization is on a mission to help even more veterans through the pandemic, but they need the public to team up with them to help make it happen.
"We fight to save lives on both ends of the leash, and we are honored to be able to help Hank and other veterans just like him," added Walis. "We use the donations that people give to us to help vets and pets. During this time there are many veterans who could use some additional supplies or assistance, and we will continue to what we can to help them. Donations are down, yet we have more veterans to help, so we really need the support of the community at this time."
The Paws of War team was able to capture some video footage of their efforts and have created a video that can be seen here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L_RYqy_TBj0.
Paws of War rescues dogs, provides them with proper training, and then pairs them with veterans who need therapy animals, all free of charge. They also help soldiers bring their dog back to America after serving in the Middle East.

Jeff Friedman Brings Nation's First and Fastest-Growing Tree Service Franchise to Severna Park, Annapolis, Glen Burnie, Elkridge and Surrounding Areas

GLEN BURNIE, MD. (PRWEB) APRIL 27, 2020
Monster Tree Service, the nation's first and fastest-growing tree service franchise, is expanding in Maryland. Recently featured by SUCCESS magazine, Thrive Global, and Franchise Times, the Monster Tree Service franchise continues to build on its rapid three-year franchise system growth.
Business entrepreneur Jeff Friedman has purchased the rights to a Monster Tree Service territory in Anne Arundel County, covering Severna Park, Annapolis, Glen Burnie, Elkridge and surrounding areas. Friedman officially launched his business in March, and his experienced crew is already enjoying a steady stream of satisfied customers.
Friedman is a U.S. Army veteran who first came to Maryland in 2007. He was stationed at Fort Meade and immediately fell in love with the area. After leaving the army, Friedman went to work for the Department of Defense, and even though his career took him as far away as Hawaii, he was anxious to return and now considers Maryland his home.
While in the Army, Friedman trained in the field of information technology. He continued building on his IT experience at the Department of Defense. And when it came time to make the decision about the next step in his career, Friedman's IT experience led him to Monster Tree Service.
"When I was first introduced to Monster, I was immediately drawn to their data analytics system," said Friedman. "Their customer relationship management system creates leads, accurate quotes, work orders, tracks how long crews have been on a job and more. It's an incredible tool that monitors the health of the business."
Josh Skolnick, CEO and Founder of Monster Tree Service, is confident Friedman will be an excellent asset to the Monster Tree Service franchise.
"Jeff is a perfect fit for the Monster Tree Service franchise opportunity," says Skolnick. "He has a good head for business and a great understanding of the needs of his community. I am confident he can handle any challenge that comes his way and will thrive as the newest member of the Monster family. We are glad to have Jeff on our team."
Monster Tree Service is the only franchise tree company capitalizing on the under-served $17 billion tree service industry. Monster Tree Service has achieved consistent year-over-year, 5 percent growth since 2009, resulting in a $10+ million business. Because it's a high-upside opportunity, and a recession-proof business, Monster Tree Service expects to achieve $100 million in sales by 2021.
"With the support of Monster's national recruiting efforts, we've assembled a great team," said Friedman. "Each member of the crew has 10 years or more of experience in the industry. We're very proud to offer the community our wide array of services, including tree trimming and pruning, shrubbery and hedge thinning, landscape clearing and more."

Native Solution Simplifies the Entry Experience for Residents and Streamlines Unattended Self Showings and Package Delivery, Enabling Secure Real-Time Audit of All Accesses

PORTLAND, ORE. (PRWEB) APRIL 27, 2020
PointCentral, the recognized leader in enterprise-scale Smart Property solutions for short-term and long-term residential property managers, today announces the launch of their smart Curb-to-Couch access control solution. Primarily designed for multifamily communities with smart apartments but also applicable to gated single-family communities and HOAs, PointCentral's solution allows residents, guests, staff and vendors to use a single credential, in the form of a pin-code or a mobile app, across multiple entry points, simplifying the living experience and offering a new level of convenience and security for residents of smart properties.
PointCentral's Curb-to-Couch solution started by focusing on traditional access control systems. Utilizing Alarm.com's smarter access control product line, their Curb-to-Couch solution offers a retrofit-friendly access control solution that extends the safety, convenience and operational benefits of going keyless and fob-less throughout a community. By tying traditional access control into PointCentral's smart property platform, the Curb-to-Couch access solution can also provide a convenient way for apartment managers to grant building access to prospective tenants for unattended self-showings. When a prospect expresses interest in a property and has been authorized to view it, they can be automatically sent a unique access code that will gain them access to the smart building as well as the unit they want to see. When they exit, the management company is automatically notified for follow up.
In addition to enabling unattended showings, PointCentral's Curb-to-Couch solution provides a simple way to give access to vendors and maintenance staff, enabling use cases such as package delivery direct to package rooms or to residents' units without any involvement from on-site staff. Unique access codes can be limited to specific locks and only available for a short period of time. Real-time audits provide a complete history of who entered, where they entered, and for how long.
"PointCentral is the leading Smart Home platform of choice for property managers because we offer more flexible solutions than anyone else, allowing them to tailor the experience to the specific needs of their residents, owners and communities," said Sean Miller, president of PointCentral. "Combining Curb-to-Couch with our best-in-class reliability, data security and resident privacy policies, shows how comprehensive our smart property management platform is. When you add in authorized PointCentral service providers' ability to offer installation, local support, and add-ons like monitored life safety, our smart property management platform is the best option for residential property managers and their owners to transform short and long-term rental properties into state-of-the-art smart apartments, smart homes and connected communities."
PointCentral's Curb-to-Couch solution looked beyond traditional access control systems and also considered that multifamily properties have widely deployed traditional intercom systems to facilitate resident and visitor access. In order to enhance the overall experience, the Curb-to-Couch access solution integrates with ButterflyMX and Doorport intercom solutions, tying smart intercoms and front-of-door access into a seamless and secure way for residents, guests and service providers to access properties through PointCentral's single integrated platform.
"Intercoms play a vital role in helping residents and property managers verify and control in real time who gains access to a building," said Miller. "Property managers and residents alike want a seamless Curb-to-Couch solution that conveniently and securely manages front door access for guests as well as service and package delivery. ButterflyMX and Doorport integrations allow us to provide a complete range of solutions within a single product suite."
The new Curb-to-Couch access solution will be available from authorized PointCentral service providers in 2Q20.
About PointCentral 
PointCentral, a subsidiary of Alarm.com (Nasdaq: ALRM), provides short and long-term residential property managers with a full suite of smart property solutions. The PointCentral platform monitors and controls single-family and multifamily rental properties throughout North America over a secure and reliable cellular network.

New Research from Wealthramp Also Reveals Americans Are Asking for Active Investing Strategies; Nearly Two-Thirds of Wealthramp Advisors Say Approximately A Quarter of Clients Are Looking to Invest New Money into the Market This Quarter

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
Eight out of 10 advisors (83%) within the Wealthramp network report that more than 75% of their clients can still afford to retire on time despite the economic turmoil caused by Covid-19, according to new research by the online financial advisor referral service. Wealthramp matches consumers with expertly vetted fiduciary advisors based on their investing priorities and is comprised of independent, fee-only financial advisors who work solely in the best interests of clients.
Findings from the inaugural survey, which polled more than 100 fee-only fiduciary advisors within the Wealthramp network, suggest the impact holistic financial planning has on fortifying retirement savings and preserving capital for active investing. Additional key findings include: 

Nearly two-thirds of advisors (63%) say approximately a quarter of their clients are looking to invest new money into the market right now. Moreover, nearly one in five Wealthramp advisors (17%) say that 25% to less than 50% are interested in these tactical strategies.

While the overwhelming majority of advisors within the Wealthramp network report their clients are able to retire on time, if clients do need to adjust their timeframes, 63% of advisors are recommending they extend it only by 1-2 years.

Nearly half of advisors (47%) say their clients are most focused on rebalancing and making adjustments to their investment portfolios, followed by a quarter of advisors (23%) who are working with clients to ensure they have enough cash cushion throughout this crisis, and just under 10% who are most focused on harvesting tax losses.

Having enough liquid assets is a particular concern of younger clients who receive a large portion of their income through stock awards. One-third of advisors say these clients are worried about how Covid-19 is affecting the valuation of their companies and are worried about their lack of knowledge around what they own and how stock-based compensation works.

"We're in a very different economic environment than the past 11 years where all we saw were gains. Now is the time that advisors earn their keep – so much is at stake," says Pam Krueger, founder and CEO of Wealthramp. "A true fiduciary will position investors for both downside protection and upside success. They'll ensure clients have a solid asset allocation plan that secures enough capital to manage through crises and capitalize on opportunities, as evidenced by the results of our survey. In this current Covid-19 environment, it is more important than ever that Americans know who they can turn to for financial advice that is personalized and conflict-free."

C.J. Lawrence Partners with Island Harvest and Others to Help Assist Populations in Need

LONG ISLAND, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
As New Yorkers hunker down in a State of Emergency, many wonder what else they can be doing to help during the Global Pandemic brought on by COVID-19. To respond to the needs of the community and to galvanize individuals ready to assist, New York-based investment management boutique, C.J. Lawrence, has launched a campaign to provide matching funds for local food banks and hospitals that are in desperate need of support.
Concentrating its efforts on Long Island, the area where most of its employees live, C.J. Lawrence is encouraging employees, clients, and partners to contribute to Island Harvest. Founded in 1992, Island Harvest has worked diligently towards its mission to end hunger and reduce food waste on Long Island.
"The unshakable grit and unmistakable spirit of New York are felt once again during these harrowing times," said Bernhard Koepp, CEO of C.J. Lawrence. "We hope that through our efforts with Island Harvest, Long Island Community Hospital, and ACLD, we can help galvanize our community to support the most vulnerable populations in the region."
Since the COVID-19 outbreak began, Island Harvest has increased its purchase of food 12-fold, distributed more than 1 million pounds of food, and provided over 800,000 meals to those in need across Long Island. With a 1 million meal distribution goal, the organization is looking to its community for support.
Long Island was an early hot bed of virus activity, sitting inside a highly afflicted region. New York has been among the hardest hit in the U.S., with over 282,991 confirmed Coronavirus cases and 21,504 deaths (as per CDC.gov on April 27, 2020 at 1:08 PM EST). COVID-19 has affected every person and sector, in turn placing an added strain on local food banks who must feed a growing number of individuals with fewer volunteers and a decreased supply of food available.
C.J. Lawrence has committed to matching contributions to Island Harvest up to $5,000, hoping that may incentivize more individuals to contribute. In addition to offering support to Island Harvest, C.J. Lawrence has also donated to Long Island Community Hospital and ACLD, a leading not-for-profit agency on Long Island that proudly supports the needs of individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. Both organizations have dedicated support efforts for COVID-19.
To learn more about how you can donate to the COVID-19 relief efforts, please visit Island Harvest - https://interland3.donorperfect.net/weblink/weblink.aspx?name=E249623&id=68&cfifid=84
About C.J. Lawrence
C.J. Lawrence is a leading New York-based investment management boutique providing platinum level service and investment portfolio customization to individuals, families, foundations, and institutions. With a legacy that dates to 1864, C.J. Lawrence was re-launched in 2014 as an independent SEC-registered investment advisor.

Husband and wife, Buck and Jo Stein, and friend Jim Turner pulled off the nearly impossible on Friday, April 17th, making three aces on Calvert Crossing Golf Club's 124-yard, par-3 5th hole. The odds of this amazing occurrence are about the same as winning the Powerball. The probability of an average golfer making a hole-in-one is roughly 12,000 to 1. The chances of two people acing the same hole, on the same day, from the same foursome are roughly 64 million to 1 range – according to the National Hole-In-One Registry. Add in a third person, hitting from the same tees and the statistics are off the charts.

CALHOUN, LA. (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
Husband and wife, Buck and Jo Stein, and friend Jim Turner pulled off the nearly impossible on Friday, April 17th, making three aces on Calvert Crossing Golf Club's 124-yard, par-3 5th hole. The odds of this amazing occurrence are about the same as winning the Powerball. The probability of an average golfer making a hole-in-one is roughly 12,000 to 1. The chances of two people acing the same hole, on the same day, from the same foursome are roughly 64 million to 1 range – according to the National Hole-In-One Registry. Add in a third person, hitting from the same tees and the statistics are off the charts.
Buck Stein, age 79, and Turner, age 87, were paired together as part of a foursome in the club's senior outing and teed off at 9 a.m., while Jo Stein, age 75, played with friends Harolyn Falgoust and Angela Martin and teed off at 10:10 a.m.
Upon arriving at the 5th hole, Turner was third to play and hit an 8-iron from 124 yards, while Buck Stein went last (fourth) and hit a 9-iron from the same distance, noting the pin was just below the second tier of the green or center- left of the green.
"All of the other players were already in their carts ready to drive to the green and nobody knew that either of our balls were in the hole until pulling up to the green," said Buck Stein. "It was unbelievable that both balls stayed in the cup with the foam COVID-19 blocks in place."
I could not believe it," said Turner. "I was so struck with excitement, I only took a photo of the balls in the cup and did not think to ask the group to take a photo of Buck and me together, but then we could not get close or high-five anyway under all the COVID restrictions."
About an hour later, Jo Stein used a 5-wood, "for some added distance, as the wind had picked up," from 124 yards.
"I thought the ball was real close to the pin," explained Jo Stein. "I asked Angela Martin if it was in and she used her range finder to see the ball. Angela then jumped up and down screaming 'It's in the hole!'"
Married for 56 years, the Stein's have played at Calvert Crossing an estimated 2,000 times over the last 18 years, but had never aced the short par-3. In fact, Buck and Jo have a 3.3 and 3.5 scoring average respectively on the hole. Turner estimates that he's played the course 2,080 times over his 20 years at the Club and carries a 3.3 scoring average on the hole.
Buck Stein has had six previous holes-in-one, while Jo Stein has had one previous ace, on the par-3 17th hole at Calvert Crossing in 2015. Turner has had two previous aces – 40 years ago at Pine Hills and 10 years ago on the second hole at Calvert Crossing.
"The bar is not open at Calvert Crossing during the COVID-19 crisis, so Harolyn, Angela and I plan to celebrate after the restrictions are lifted," said Jo Stein.
"If the bar had been open, there would have been some celebration for sure," added Buck Stein. "Instead, we called family members and friends to tell them about the holes-in-one."
Buck Stein has been playing golf for about 50 years, and Jo has been playing approximately 38 years. Jo plays regularly with Ms. Falgoust and Ms. Martin, while Buck and Jo play together an average of three to five times per month. Turner started playing golf in high school and has never had a golf lesson. Turner and Buck Stein are usually paired together one to two times per month.
"Three aces on the same hole, on the same day is absolutely incredible," said Kevin LaFontaine, general manager, Calvert Crossing Golf Club. "I'm thrilled for Mr. and Mrs. Stein and Mr. Turner!"
Managed by Troon's Honours Golf division, Calvert Crossing Golf Club is located in the West Ouachita Parish of Louisiana and is one of the premier private golf clubs in the area. The Club features a modern, 18-hole layout co-designed by John Floyd (who worked under Jack Nicklaus) and Bill Zimmerebner, and is carved through the rolling hills of Calhoun. Members enjoy the beautiful and peaceful "walk in the woods" the golf course provides along with casual dining, and access to special member events.

RMI Fusion, a subsidiary of Response Mine Interactive, announced this week its plans to launch a pay-for-performance-only business model for its outsourced call center service offering.

ATLANTA (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
RMI Fusion believes strongly in performance-based business models. In fact, the organization is putting a stake in the ground and applying a pay-for-performance methodology to its own call center operation service offerings.
"Beginning on May 1, we will execute our business in the call center by only working on a cost-per-acquisition business model and getting paid for closed sales or set appointments in our call center services," explains EVP and managing partner Brent Wheeler. 
  
Most businesses' outsourced call center service models are billed by contact, by seat or by the hour/minute.
Rather than conforming to this traditional approach, however, RMI Fusion's call center business model now focuses on outcomes and producing sales and/or appointments for clients.
Last year, the RMI Fusion call center piloted a pay-for-performance program at scale for a particular client; RMI Fusion was paid only for closed sales after cancellations. "This model provided a lift in conversion rates of sales by more than 20% over the client's own internal call center operations and other external outsourced call center partners they worked with," says Eric Rehm, vice president of operations.
"It's not just about answering the 30,000+ phone calls monthly or calling people back," continues Rehm. "It's about closing sales, setting appointments and getting paid for those outcomes. Nothing else really matters in a sales environment explains."
As a direct-to-consumer customer acquisition firm, RMI Fusion provides a comprehensive marketing approach in which their call center works in tandem with an advanced analytics team, acquiring customers for its partners strictly on a pay-for-performance basis. 
Now they are applying that same methodology to clients who are looking to improve call center-only business processes through an outsourced partner.
RMI Fusion is managed by RMI Partner and EVP Brent Wheeler. Wheeler has pioneered customer and patient acquisition programs for Back Pain Centers of America, Aetna, Terminix, Trugreen, Home Depot and American Home Shield.
More information about the RMI Fusion team and its programs can be found at http://www.rmifusion.com.

Find out how the Fourth May Be Strong with You virtually on Star Wars Day 2020. Fun and educational material from the world's largest children's museum includes Yoda yoga and lots of fun things to do. May the 4th be with you.

INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
So what if you can't travel to a galaxy far, far away to celebrate Star Wars Day because of social distancing. The world's largest children's museum wants to help make sure the Force is strong with you on May 4, 2020 and every day.
For more than 40 years, adults and children have joyfully celebrated Star Wars—paying tribute to their favorite characters, plot twists and the movies themselves. Playing off the memorable phrase in the film by changing "May the Force be with you" to "May the Fourth be with you," Star Wars fans across the galaxy have come to recognize May 4 as Star Wars Day.
The Children's Museum of Indianapolis is joining the celebration by creating content for princesses, rebels, Jedi, bounty hunters, smugglers, and Droids alike. Although the museum remains temporarily closed, it is bringing Star Wars Day to families with a bundle of content that is available at Museum at Home on the museum's webpage.
The out-of-this-world bundle includes a challenge to create an alien creature, design a constellation viewer and join curators for a behind-the-scenes peek at some of the museum's unique Star Wars collection.
Here's a list of what to expect that not even the Chosen One may have predicted. 

Parents can bring balance to the Force and the family by beginning the day with Yoda Yoga in the Jedi Temple. Tune in to Facebook Live May 4, 2020 at 10 a.m. EST RSVP here.

Complete family training by following Master Yoda's example. Discover how to make Yoda ears. Make Yoda ears.

Create a creature from a planet in a galaxy far, far away. Learn more.

Bring the stars inside with a D-I-Y constellation viewer. Learn more.

Tune in to The Children's Museum of Indianapolis Facebook page May 4, 2020 at 3 p.m. EST to hear from Curator Ashley Hannum about the museum's Star Wars collection.

Discuss life lessons learned from Star Wars and the sources in history that inspired them. For example, what inspired the Jedi and their light sabers (Shaolin monks of ancient China and Samurai knights from 12th century Japan).

No need to jump to hyperspace. The Children's Museum of Indianapolis has what children and families need to have a memorable Star Wars Day at home. May the Fourth be with you!
Stay tuned because the museum will also host virtual birthday parties on the first day of the month. May 1, 2020 will be an 80s dance themed birthday party. Subsequent content will include space, racing and dinosaurs. Don't forget to tune in to Museum at Home for fun and educational science experiments, story time and art projects.

Providence Point residents prove to be resilient during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PITTSBURGH (PRWEB) APRIL 28, 2020
Providence Point residents are seasoned at being resilient. They have lived through depressions and recessions, wars and weak economies, epidemics and illnesses. COVID-19 has introduced some new challenges, but the residents of this 62+ Life Plan Community in Scott Township appear to be up for the task.
After all, they proved resourceful during Providence Point's construction project last year when detours and dust required them to modify routines and adapt to detours. The expansion included new amenities, expanded dining venues, a state-of-the-art wellness area complete with niche classes and trainers, a beautiful non-denominational chapel, and a new 70-unit residential tower. In the past few months, Providence Point welcomed more than 60 new residents to the community who moved into Hamilton Tower or one of the other existing apartment towers or spacious patio homes.
Then, just as life was hitting its new stride, and everyone was enjoying the growth and energy of the expanded community, COVID-19 hit. Though accustomed to easy access to a robust social, wellness and cultural calendar—something that might humble the Kardashians—Providence Point residents showed their resilience once again. As social distancing became the new norm, Providence Point residents quickly adapted with ideas and found new ways to stay active mentally and physically. They knew it was important to embrace the changes, and they did.  
In fact, here are 19 things they are doing and learning: 

Genealogy

Foreign languages

Wreath-making 

Organizing tips

Gardening in their second bathrooms

Targeted exercise routines while walking campus

Drawing and art

Writing techniques

Drop Box

Zoom Hangouts 

We Transfer 

Facebook

Instagram stories

Twitter and effective tweeting

Storytelling through journaling

New ways to communicate with phone apps

New recipes 

Social distancing

Relaxation techniques recognizing that "This too shall pass."

Just 19 new things in a month of coping with COVID-19, learning technology and how to communicate in an era defined by computers and digital everything. They are thriving better than ever and looking forward to mastering their app that helps them completely navigate the premier living headquarters at Providence Point.

Managers and Team Members are being trained and re-trained on cleaning protocols, physical distancing, and general operating guidelines within this new normal to ensure an optimally safe environment for our Guests and Team Members.

STERLING, VA. (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
We are all longing to get back to the way things "used" to be, however, that probably will not happen for some time. What we will be doing, is getting used to the "new normal", where things like physical closeness and hugs from friends come with hesitation.
When it comes time to re-open Flight park locations, "We will be doing so with an abundance of caution", states Bill Duffy, Chief Operating Officer. "We care deeply about the well-being of our Team Members and Guests during these trying times. In order to reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19 throughout the Flight brand, we have developed and put into place a plan to focus on key areas of our business."
Managers and Team Members are being trained and re-trained on cleaning protocols, physical distancing, and general operating guidelines within this new normal to ensure an optimally safe environment for our Guests and Team Members. Flight's Vice President of People and Corporate Operations, Yehuda Haziza cautioned, "It may look a little different inside our parks as we take precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and we want Guests to still enjoy adventure parks without the fear of illness."
Prior to temporarily closing the doors in March, Flight's cleaning protocols were already very strict. Now, even more so with step by step instructions on how and what to clean; increased number of times the park must be cleaned, and implementing an antimicrobial mist fogging system for a variety of surfaces around the park such as attractions and foam pits, Flight is taking the appropriate steps to ensure sanitation and cleanliness.
Steve Yeffa, Chief Executive Officer, states, "We will re-open our parks when two things occur: one, appropriate officials have declared it is appropriate to do so and two, we feel we are ready and prepared to open our doors to welcome Guests for a once in a lifetime experience that they can enjoy every single time they visit our parks."

Making food in the kitchen can be an expression of love in uncertain times

GILBERT, ARIZ. (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
These continue to be difficult times for everyone. COVID-19 has nearly the entire country staying home and feeling isolated. The uncertainty of what the future holds has many people filled with stress, fear, and anxiety. SweetLeaf Sweetener has found studies that show how spending time in the kitchen can be helpful in making one feel better.
For those looking for a happier time, research has shown that spending time in the kitchen can relieve stress and anxiety. According to Smithsonian Magazine (1), anyone in need of lifted spirits should consider warming up the oven.    
Creative expression is closely related to overall well-being. Baking and cooking is not only a creative activity, it also communicates good feelings, generates happy thoughts, and can remove stress and anxiety. Cooking for one's self has the additional reward of being able to eat what you've made, the way you like it; however, cooking for others may have an even greater benefit for you personally.
Carol May, CEO of Wisdom Natural Brands adds, "At the heart of baking and cooking for yourself or loved ones is the very definition of giving. That process can increase a feeling of well-being; sharing with others can even increase that feeling."
There's much written about the connection between creative expression and overall well-being. Julie Ohana, a licensed clinical social worker, told the Huffington Post (2), "In many cultures, in many countries, food really is an expression of love, and it's actually beautiful because it's something we really all relate to." Baking and cooking for others creates a connection and gives the pleasure of making a positive contribution to the world in which we live.
According to Psychology Today (3), it isn't our circumstance that defines our life, but rather what is within us and how we allow that experience to impact us. A simple analogy: boiling water will soften a potato, but the same boiling water will harden an egg. It is the same water that surrounds the food, but what's inside the food determines the end result.
"Stress is related to a host of mental and physical problems and finding ways to cope is important to leading a healthy life," says Susan Whitbourne, professor of psychology and brain sciences at the University of Massachusetts. "Baking can be a helpful way to communicate one's feelings."

In response to the devastating impact of COVID-19, the American Foundation of Savoy Orders is re-launching its West Coast spring charity gala - the Third Annual Notte di Savoia Los Angeles- previously scheduled for April 4, 2020 at the Montage Resort in Beverly Hills, into a virtual fundraising event. The event's charitable beneficiary, Caterina's Club, continues to feed over 5,000 fresh pasta dinners to homeless and motel children daily. Caterina's Club is led by Chef Bruno Serato, a Savoy Cavaliere, and has also kept helping families move from their cars and hotel rooms to apartments and changing their lives. The online giving event begins now and runs through May 11, 2020.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
In response to the devastating impact of COVID-19, The American Foundation of Savoy Orders is re-launching its West Coast spring charity gala - the Third Annual Notte di Savoia Los Angeles - previously scheduled for April 4, 2020 at the Montage Resort in Beverly Hills, into a virtual fundraising event benefiting Caterina's Club. Caterina's Club has made it its mission to not miss a single day of feeding the kids. Chef Bruno and the Caterina's Club staff are working daily with every program location to ensure kids can be fed a fresh pasta dinner, in keeping with the Savoy Foundation's "Chivalry for Children's Causes" charitable mandate from HRH Prince Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, the hereditary Crown Prince of Italy. The Savoy Foundation is encouraging donating online, perhaps in the amount guests were planning to give or spend on gala tickets at the Notte di Savoia event on April 4. The online giving event begins now and runs through May 11, 2020.
Caterina's Club, founded by humanitarian Bruno Serato, is known worldwide for not only finding homes for needy families but feeding thousands of hungry children each week and helping at-risk youth avert gang life through his Hospitality Academy. Because schools in Southern California are officially shut down, children are missing their daily lunches. The Boys and Girls Clubs, where Caterina's Club distributed dinners to children through after-school programs, have also been closed due to COVID-19. Chef Bruno continues offering fresh pasta for children and their families to take home at drive-throughs and walk-ups outside those locations which are now shut. The Savoy Foundation has already raised $60,000 through its virtual fundraising event. Each dollar given provides one meal for a hungry child. To support Caterina's Club and the kids, please click here for the online giving portal.
The Savoy Foundation launched in 2019 its new charitable mission - "Chivalry for Children's Causes" - to assist institutions and charitable organizations that provide aid to children and families in need, building stable, healthy families, whether enrichment spaces or basic meals for improved health and stable living conditions in economically disadvantaged environments. The program is made possible thanks to generous support from the members and friends of the American Delegation of Savoy Orders. HRH Prince Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy, the hereditary Crown Prince of Italy, said: The Savoy Foundation is committed to sustaining children's charities and adapting its fundraising capabilities to the current pandemic restrictions worldwide. Chef Bruno Serato does tremendous work in Southern California and the Savoy Foundation is pleased to support Caterina's Club once again in 2020."
The House of Savoy refers to the Italian Royal Family whose ancient origins can be traced as far back as 1003 to the alpine region which borders today with Italy, France and Switzerland. Through gradual expansion, the Savoy dynasty grew in power to eventually unify and rule the Kingdom of Italy until 1946 when, in the aftermath of World War II, the monarchy was replaced by the Italian Republic.
ABOUT THE SAVOY FOUNDATION AND THE AMERICAN DELEGATION OF SAVOY ORDERS 
The American Delegation of Savoy Orders, which includes the United States of America, is among 35 delegations of the Savoy Orders located throughout Europe, the Americas and Japan. The Dynastic Orders of the Royal House of Savoy are among the oldest orders of chivalry in the world. Their origins and their principles, traditions and humanitarian goals, like those of the Royal House of Savoy that has the hereditary right to confer them, date back a thousand years. The American Delegation of Savoy Orders through its charitable arm, the American Foundation of Savoy Orders, contributes to humanitarian, hospitaller and charitable projects and initiatives in the United States and abroad, particularly in healthcare and hospice care, disaster relief, education programs and children's causes.
The American Foundation of Savoy Orders, Incorporated, a 501(c) (3) charitable organization headquartered in New York City, supports local, national, and international charities focusing on medical, educational, social assistance and humanitarian fields, including philanthropy for hospitals, relief agencies, children's causes and hospice care for the poor, infirm and elderly.

The Credit and Debt Management Institute (CDMI) launches their latest program; the Stop Creditor Payments allows consumers to stop all creditor and bill payments for 3-12 months without penalty to their credit score.

QUEENS, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
Breakthrough innovation specialist CDMI today launches Stop Creditor Payments (SCP), a dual-mode program that enables consumers to cease all creditor and bill payments for 3-12 months without damaging their credit, guaranteed.
With over 35 years of credit industry experience, the Credit and Debt Management Institute has provided cutting-edge and innovative credit solutions to thousands of individuals, small businesses and corporations across the country. Their tested and proven multi-platform credit restoration programs are integrated with their industry-leading, award-winning algorithm. This algorithm has helped them receive all three credit industry world records including the highest recorded credit score.
In a unique commercial offer, CDMI is providing the dual-mode intellectual property for a one-time fee, including monitoring and customization. This creates a bespoke platform, enabling consumers and small business owners the ability to differentiate their creditor deferment plans and to secure a competitive advantage. SCP removes the fear of destroying credit based on a financial hardship that is beyond an individual's control. This comprehensive program temporarily modifies, settles or defers all payments and bills.
Using this model, and paying a one-time fee, CDMI is set to accelerate the ability of consumers and small business to emerge unscathed from the disruptive coronavirus pandemic, by helping clients to maintain and build their credit during this financial meltdown. This program will make it possible to actually improve credit scores, with its dual-mode interoperability between consumer and creditors. SCP is fast emerging as a critical requirement for sustainability over the next decade. SCP further mobilizes the Care Act and provides consumers and small businesses with the opportunity to preserve creditor relations and their credit score while awaiting stimulus funding.
Having the ability and flexibility to develop new products and services that offer true solutions is why CDMI was voted the World's Leading Credit Experts. "We've developed SCP to give our clients unprecedented levels of customization and control, not only for the sake of their credit, but also to ensure that once this crisis is over they will be in a position to take advantage of the imminent wave of funding opportunities," says Dr. Michael C. Grayson, CEO.
SCP has been designed to streamline integration and provide a single point of contact for both consumers and creditors. Furthermore, it provides the ability to 'stop the bleeding', whilst consumers and small businesses seek government assistance and rebuild their financial preparedness. "This product is the only way for the middle class to survive this terrible pandemic and keep the focus where it should be, on staying safe and healthy," says Dr. Grayson.
This product is offered online at PerfectCredit4Life.com, and Dr. Grayson's book 'How to Stop Making Payments' can be purchased on Amazon.com. In fact, if purchased in the next five (5) days Amazon is offering the e-book for free as they are convinced that providing this level of technology and interoperability will be an essential requirement in sustaining and creating the level of prosperity that will set the direction for the economy, the market and the middle class, in the years to come.

The U.S. toy industry saw dollar sales increase by $256 million to $3.6 billion in the first quarter of 2020

PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
The U.S. toy industry saw dollar sales increase by $256 million to $3.6 billion in the first quarter (January 2020 – March 2020), a 7.6 percent increase over the same time period last year*.
While Easter, which occurred a week earlier this year than it did in 2019, may have been responsible for some sales in March, school closings was the key driver of toy industry growth in the first quarter.
Games and Puzzles, Outdoor & Sports Toys, Building Sets, and Arts & Crafts drove the sales increases with growth of 55 percent, 22 percent, 20 percent, and 13 percent, respectively, over the first quarter of 2020.
The top properties for Q1 2020 included L.O.L. Surprise!, Pokémon, Disney Frozen, Barbie, Star Wars, Marvel Universe, Hot Wheels, Nerf, Funko Pop!, and Little Tikes. The top 10 properties combined posted +19 percent growth versus the rest of the market, which was up +5 percent.
Once again, content proved to be king as all four of the top four growth properties (Disney Frozen, Star Wars, Toy Story and Pokémon) were bolstered by movie releases in 2019.
Assessing the Impact of COVID 19
In mid-March, the COVID-19 pandemic led to widespread school and workplace closures throughout the U.S. As a result, many parents had to work from home while, at the same time, manage their children's schooling and free time. Adding to that, the elimination of organized sports and the negative impact of widespread social isolation on families led many parents to turn to toys for help.
While COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on the global economy, it has bolstered the toy industry in the U.S. During the five weeks from March 15 to April 18 the toy industry grew +19 percent vs. +1 percent for the first 10 weeks of the year**. Easter sales were included for both years during this five-week comparison period and, therefore, had no seasonal impact.
Not surprisingly, the strongest dollar growth categories during this five-week time period, contributing 77 percent of the growth, included Games and Puzzles, driven by family board/action games, adult puzzles, card games, and children's games; and Outdoor and Sports Toys, driven by playground equipment, skates/skateboards/scooters, and pools. Building Sets and Arts and Crafts contributed the remaining 23 percent of the growth.
"With organized and school sports cancellations being one of the casualties of COVID-19, parents and children yearned for something to take the place of those outdoor, physical activities. Trampolines and skates/skateboards/scooters fulfilled that need for many families," said Juli Lennett, NPD's toys industry advisor, "And with warmer weather approaching, Outdoor and Sports Toys will be the supercategory to watch if lockdowns continue."

With social distancing measures in place for large gatherings, GalaxyCon is extending beyond the confines of a comic con and taking immediate steps to connect celebrities and fans from the comforts of their own homes.

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
GalaxyCon is launching a new business for virtual events online called GalaxyCon Live this weekend through http://www.galaxycon.com. This new venture creates an original approach for connecting celebrities and fans that represents a first for the comic con industry.
Here's what people can expect from GalaxyCon Live: 

Live Streaming Interviews with Celebrities

One-on-Group Video Chats with a Fan and a Group of Celebrities

One-on-One Video Chats with a Fan and One Celebrity

Personalized Autographs

Personalized Video Recordings

These virtual meet and greets make it possible for fans to engage with celebrities on a level that isn't possible in person. During a comic con, fans have never had a chance to chat for two minutes with two or more celebrities at one time in a private setting. GalaxyCon Live will make this interaction possible, starting with their first virtual meet and greet on May 2nd, 2020.
"I woke up one day about five weeks ago and realized that, if large gatherings aren't possible for the foreseeable future, we had to get creative pretty quickly if we want to remain relevant," GalaxyCon's President, Mike Broder, said.
While Broder was inventing a new business, the GalaxyCon team worked with celebrity and comic book guests to produce free, daily online programming for the public as a way to continue their mission of creating memorable fan experiences.
"We've been surprised to learn that fan interactions with celebrities are often not trivial," Broder said. "Celebrities have told us repeatedly that fans share stories of how the celebrities' characters have helped them overcome trauma, PTSD, loss, and other challenges."
GalaxyCon Live will carry on the tradition of creating experiences for all genres of nerdy fandoms including comics, anime, animation, cosplay, science fiction, wrestling, fantasy, and gaming.
Some of the first events to include private chats with celebrities include the following:

May 2, 2020 at 2pm EST: My Hero Academia's Three Best Girls Monica Rial, Colleen Clinkenbeard, and Luci Christian

May 3, 2020 at 2pm EST: The Loser's Club from the film IT: Jack Grazer, Jackson Scott, and Jeremy Ray Taylor

May 9, 2020 at 2pm EST: Jack Skellington and Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas: Chris Sarandon and Ken Page.

May 16, 2020 at 2pm EST: The stars of The Karate Kid: Ralph Macchio, William Zabka, and Martin Kove.

May 24, 2020 at 2pm EST: The voices of RWBY: Kara Eberle, Lindsay Jones, Barbara Dunkelman, and Arryn Zech.

May 30, 2020 at 2pm EST: Tim Curry, star of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Clue, Legend, Muppet Treasure Island, IT, and Annie.

"Our free live streams have allowed us to engage with tens of thousands of fans, and it has taught us a lot about what people want right now, and we're pivoting in that direction," Broder said about the Facebook Live events he and his team have been hosting.
Event schedules and pricing may be found at http://www.galaxycon.com.
ABOUT GALAXYCON: 
GalaxyCon is more than a comic con, it's a festival of fandom that brings celebrities and fans together in person and online through virtual meet and greets.
GalaxyCon is based out of Fort Lauderdale, FL and is the premier, independent producer of comic book, sci-fi, anime, and geek culture events in the United States. GalaxyCon operates festivals in multiple cities with between 20,000 and 50,000 attendees per event.

Phoenix, AZ - Superstition Canyon Apartments.

PHOENIX (PRWEB) APRIL 29, 2020
KB Investment Development successfully closed a transaction to add Superstition Canyon, a 200-unit Class A low-density garden community in East Mesa, to their high-performing Phoenix metro multifamily portfolio. CBRE's Phoenix multifamily team of Tyler Anderson, Sean Cunningham, Asher Gunter and Matt Pesch brokered the sale.
The transaction marks the fifth large multifamily project acquired by KB in the Phoenix area since they entered the local market in 2015. Superstition Canyon is located at 1247 South 96th Street in the East Mesa sub-market, one of the region's fastest growing locations. The acquisition includes a vacant 1.7-acre parcel which will provide additional development potential in a sub-market with limited opportunities for new apartment supply.
KB's CEO and Founder, Khosro Khaloghli, acknowledged the challenges presented by the current public health crisis, and reports that he and his team spent many days weighing the potential impacts on the near and long-term performance of this asset before deciding to move forward in an environment where the majority of similar pending deals have stalled.
"The Phoenix multifamily market is in such a strong position that we feel confident in our ability to maximize the upside potential of this new asset even during a possible period of small adjustments in rent growth," says Mr. Khaloghli. "Our projects in Mesa and Ahwatukee have occupancies around 98% and we have similar expectations for Superstition Canyon. Looking at the bigger picture, we believe Phoenix will continue to be a powerful draw for new residents—with a cost of living less than the national average and the best job growth numbers in the country. People and companies will go where they have the best chance for success."
Superstition Canyon Apartments is positioned to take advantage of an existing array of nearby employers, plus new arrivals moving in to East Mesa in healthcare, aerospace and tech, as the Elliot Road Technology Corridor, anchored by a new Apple data center, bolsters the sub-market's already substantial fundamentals.
The asset will be professionally managed by Maverick Residential Company. Jeffrey Krohn, President of Maverick, joined Khosro Khaloghli in 2018 to establish a multifamily investment/management firm that would set a higher standard for asset performance. Mr. Krohn commented on the company's readiness to meet current challenges. "We're excited to add this beautiful community to our managed portfolio and work with the owner to really polish its value. Due to our robust cloud-based, virtual systems and company culture of creative responses to adversity, we're well-positioned to exceed expectations despite the temporary restrictions." Krohn came to Maverick from his role as the Vice President of Operations for Alliance Residential, where he oversaw the operations of third-party managed assets in Arizona with over 16,500 units in his portfolio. He also created the Business Development platform for Alliance and was instrumental in growing the portfolio from 60,000 to 100,000 units.
The buyer brings more than 40+ years of experience in all phases of development, and well-established relationships with major lenders. Khosro Khaloghli's entities operating in California, Nevada, Texas and Arizona have been responsible for the entitlement/development of more than 125 commercial/industrial buildings totaling over 11 million square feet of warehouse, industrial and office buildings, and 7,000 residential and apartment units, with an estimated value that exceeds $1.5 billion USD. He entered the greater Phoenix market aggressively in 2015, targeting larger communities with value-add potential for acquisition. The company's local portfolio of 1,432 units includes Stone Canyon, a 392-unit very low-density garden-style apartment complex in Mesa, Superstition Canyon with 200 units, and three communities in the premium Ahwatukee submarket: Mountainside, a 288-unit property; Arboretum at South Mountain, with 312 units and Mountain Park, 240-units. All were financed through Freddie Mac and are exceeding their operating budgets under the management of Khaloghli and Krohn's Maverick Residential Company.

Demonstrating drone delivery for COVID-19 response

LAWRENCEVILLE, VA. (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
AirBox Technologies successfully demonstrates drone delivery into the AirBox Home smart, secure delivery receptacle. The purpose of the demonstration was to highlight secure delivery into a receptacle simulating critical healthcare delivery such as may occur with samples for COVID-19 testing or medication delivery to a patient.
"Medical delivery and healthcare applications for drone delivery are being looked at nationally as a delivery method for critical medications and supplies due to the pandemic. AirBox Home can play an important part in this logistics supply chain and create a secure endpoint for valuable products," says Dr. Jeremy Tucker an emergency physician and Co-Founder of Drone Delivery Systems. "With COVID-19, we need to leverage the most cutting-edge technologies to help defeat the virus."
The demonstration was carried out on the vacant campus of St. Paul's College in Lawrenceville, VA. The Brunswick County facility, which closed to the public in 2013, provided a safe, complex community environment to demonstrate package deliveries by drones under a variety of conditions. Virginia's Center for Innovative Technology (CIT), DroneUp, UPS, and Workhorse Group carried out extensive testing during the three-day exercise.
AirBox Technologies used it's DroneX heavy lift drone which is capable of carrying 15 pounds over 6 miles to carry out the demonstration. It was able to perform multiple deliveries without fail in spite of wind gusts to 28 knots that day at the college campus.
For more info, check the following video: https://youtu.be/7yFwTdcM3uk
Because of COVID-19, in addition to drone delivery, AirBox Home is receiving much interest in helping businesses with contactless delivery during social distancing and stay at home orders. The smart delivery receptacle, accessed with a phone app, can be used in front of a restaurant or business to allow the customer to retrieve their food or products without human interaction. Likewise, senior assisted living centers, nursing homes, and restaurants can immediately benefit from contactless ground courier deliveries. It is the perfect solution for post-delivery package security.
The AirBox Home was developed and is fully manufactured in Virginia. The DroneX which delivered the packages for the demonstration is made in the USA. The AirBox Home is drone agnostic, and the DroneX can carry most types of boxes and does not require specialty containers; although, AirBox Technologies also offers a thermally insulated AirBox Sky.
About AirBox Technologies:
AirBox Technologies, located in Lewes, Delaware creates innovative solutions for the future of autonomous secure package delivery to a secure end-point address. Inventor of the world's first smart, secure, drone capable, mailbox—AirBox Home.

On a recent podcast of Dog Cancer Answers hosted by James Jacobson, Demian Dressler, "the dog cancer vet" defends dog lovers from "despicable, deplorable" online shaming behavior and says, "We cannot judge somebody's circumstance from the outside."

KIHEI, HAWAII (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
It's no secret that online bullying is a real thing. And it's not reserved for kids, either, as Dr. Demian Dressler realized after spending time on a number of Facebook pages and groups dedicated to dog cancer.
Dr. Dressler says, "People were getting shamed for the choices that they were intelligently making concerning their dog's medical care in regard to cancer and I thought that that type of shaming was completely inappropriate."
In a wide ranging conversation with host, James Jacobson, Dr. Dressler discusses the reasons why a dog lover might reasonably choose to halt, amend, or totally suspend cancer treatments in a new podcast episode "When Not to Treat Dog Cancer." Dressler also enumerates the many "life quality" changes dog lovers can make to help their dogs do better, despite the approaching end of life.
Dressler is co-author of the book The Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Full Spectrum Treatments to Optimize Your Dog's Life Quality and Longevity. His compassionate approach comes from his own experience of two decades as a veterinarian in Maui, Hawaii.
"I have clients who live in their cars on the beach and bring me their pets, and they pay in cash," Dressler says in the interview. "They don't have a lot because they can't even support themselves...their food money is going towards the dog's veterinary care." He continues, "I also have clients who fly me around in their private jets."
The difference in equity has led this veterinarian to some deep realizations: There is no "one right way," but there are many options and they need to be respected. We cannot judge somebody's circumstance, from the outside looking in. Dog guardians make different choices based on what is happening in their lives now. Unsolicited opinions and social media trolls only add to a guardian's feeling of grief, uncertainty and a wariness of talking to friends and family for fear of being judged.
It is a good message for all of us to remember, especially when so many of us are stuck at home, spending more time on social media than ever. This episode offers hope, trustworthy information and no judgement.
ABOUT THIS PODCAST

The Trepp CMBS Delinquency Rate saw its biggest jump in almost three years in April 2020. The April reading is 2.29%, a jump of 22 basis points from March's reading.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
Trepp, a leading provider of information, analytics, and technology to the structured finance, commercial real estate, and banking markets, has released the April 2020 U.S. CMBS Delinquency Report.
The report revealed a large increase in the delinquency rate and has newly updated fields to include loans categorized as "in grace period" or "beyond grace period." The full report can be accessed here: https://www.trepp.com/instantly-access-april-2020-cmbs-delinquency-report.
Trepp's CMBS Delinquency Rate saw its biggest jump in almost three years in April 2020. The April reading is 2.29%, a jump of 22 basis points over the March number. The last time the delinquency rate saw a bigger jump was in June 2017 – when the industry was still talking about the "wave of maturing" 2007 loans.
"While an increase in the delinquency rate was probably expected by most industry watchers, the magnitude of the move likely surprised many by its modest size," said Trepp Senior Managing Director, Manus Clancy. "The delinquency rate was not a very big surprise to us (or most daily TreppWire readers) and therefore, it is necessary to throw out the old way of looking at the data."
Most CMBS borrowers impacted by COVID-19 will not appear as "delinquent" until the May payment cycle. The reason for that is this: most borrowers made their March 1 payments as that payment was due before the COVID-19 headlines and shelter-at-home orders became widespread.
Many of these borrowers did not make their April 1 payments. But that did not make their loans delinquent. Instead – at that point – the loans were classified as either (A) "in grace period" or (B)"beyond grace period" in the servicer data, so we have included these figures in our delinquency report. Once borrowers miss their May 1 payment, they will become 30 days delinquent (unless the borrower is granted a forbearance).
The largest rate increase among property sectors in April belonged to the lodging sector, with its delinquency reading increasing 118 basis points to 2.71%. The number of lodging loans categorized as A/B increased to 20.39% in April, from 1.52% in March.
For additional details, such as historical comparisons, analysis on all major property types, an overview of loans newly specially serviced, and the status of loans in grace period or beyond, download Trepp's April 2020 CMBS Delinquency Report: https://www.trepp.com/instantly-access-april-2020-cmbs-delinquency-report.

AMC is providing raises for almost 300 employees who work at nearly 50 apartment communities throughout Southern California. The property management company will distribute free washable face masks and bottles of hand sanitizer to 9,000 residents.

IRVINE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
Advanced Management Company (AMC), a full-service property management company that serves nearly 9,000 apartment homes across Southern California, has introduced measures to lighten the health and economic pressures on employees and residents. In addition to increasing the wages of nearly 300 essential workers by $2 per hour, AMC will distribute free washable face masks and bottles of hand sanitizer to all employees and residents. This follows an offer extended earlier this month: $100 off April rent for residents at qualifying communities.
"We know this crisis has impacted everyone and we want to do what we can to lighten the stress load for our residents and team members," said Frank Holloway, president of AMC. "Our residents and employees are our family. We want to treat them as such and share a message of hope, unity and compassion. We know we will get through this together and we are grateful for everyone who plays a role."
From April 27 through May 15, employees who work on-site in management, leasing, maintenance and construction roles at nearly 50 Southern California AMC communities will receive an additional $2 an hour in pay.
"This emergency assistance program represents an appreciation for the relentless dedication and personal sacrifice required to serve our VIPs and maintain our communities during the pandemic," Holloway said.
AMC has been proactive and generous with its support programs to both residents and employees. In addition to the $100 off April rent, AMC is offering rent deferment programs to residents and free rent incentive programs for things like referrals and lease re-signings. For leasing professionals, who are primarily offering virtual tours, commissions have been more than tripled. To assist in the effort of minimizing infections, AMC will distribute 9,000 washable face masks and 9,000 bottles of hand sanitizer to residents and employees.
About AMC 
Started in 1982, Advanced Management Company is a privately owned property management company built on a foundation of ethical business practices.

With social distancing required, graduation will look much different for the class of 2020

MIAMI (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
Entrepreneur and social media influencer Grant Cardone made a donation this week through his Grant Cardone Foundation to help create a special ceremony for local graduating South Florida seniors on May 14th amid the current COVID-19 shutdown, which is hindering traditional graduation ceremonies across the world this spring.
The monetary gift helps make possible each participating graduating senior to be paraded around Country Club Drive with one graduate per vehicle. The planning committee awaits final approval to have the parade culminate in a local park where all 200 grads will socially distance and enjoy a special celebrity appearance. While further details are being worked out, each student will receive a special baseball cap with "Class of 2020", a tassel, and a customized, one-of-a-kind face mask to memoralize their very unique graduation.
This idea came from former Aventura Commissioner Michael Stern because his daughter and her friends were missing out on prom and a traditional graduation ceremony that high school students normally experience. Mr. Stern reached out to Aventura City Commissioner Howard Weinberg, because he knew it would require a donation to provide commemorative keepsakes for the students. In turn, Commissioner Weinberg reached out to local business owner, Grant Cardone, as the two have been collaborating on other relief efforts in the Aventura community related to Covid 19.
"I made one call...to Grant Cardone. He answered on the first ring and said yes as soon as I said it was for Aventura's graduating high school students. His only question was 'how much'. He had a check for me the next day. It's amazing to have a community with stakeholders like Grant." —City of Aventura Commissioner Howard Weinberg
Cardone obliged the request and is also donating his booklet on financial education to the graduates as a head start in their careers.
"During this COVID-19 economic crisis, it's more important than ever to support those in your local communities. I've been blessed to be able to help in a small way, and hope it encourages others to give back in any way they can." —Grant Cardone
The Grant Cardone Foundation, a non-profit corporation organized and operated exclusively for charitable purposes, including providing mentoring and financial literacy education to underserved and at-risk populations, has also contributed to the Boy Scouts of America, Make-A-Wish Foundation, and Hurricane Dorian Relief, where resources were brought to the most devastated areas in the Bahamas. In addition, earlier this month the Cardone Foundation contributed to help feed the first responders in Aventura using local Aventura small business restaurants.
To learn more about the Cardone Foundation, visit https://cardonefoundation.com/
About Grant Cardone
CEO of CardoneCapital, international speaker, entrepreneur and author of The 10X Rule & creator of 21 best-selling business programs, Grant Cardone owns & operates seven privately held companies and a $1.4B portfolio of multifamily properties. Named the #1 marketer to watch by Forbes Magazine, Cardone is also the founder of The 10X Movement & The 10X Growth Conference, the world's largest business & entrepreneur conference.

Millennials; the generation of individuals born between 1981-1996, are rising above the stigma and settling down. In fact, according to Hanley Wood, millennial buyers make up about 40% of resale buyers and slightly more than 50% of new-homebuyers. So what exactly are they looking for in their first home?

CINCINNATI (PRWEB) APRIL 30, 2020
Millennials; the generation of individuals born between 1981-1996, are rising above the stigma and settling down. In fact, according to Hanley Wood, millennial buyers make up about 40% of resale buyers and slightly more than 50% of new-homebuyers. So what exactly are they looking for in their first home?
Storage, storage, and more storage! Millennials rank storage high on their list of most wanted features. In fact, laundry rooms, garage storage, and walk-in pantries rank in the top 5 of the most wanted features in a new home according to the 2019 Housing Economics Special Studies report.
As homes are decreasing in size, storage is top of mind for millennial homebuyers as they are seeking ample storage solutions to store their belongings. Builders are capitalizing on this opportunity to capture millennial buying power by offering storage and organization options.
Builders who embrace technology and understand the needs of millennials and the advantages of offering quality options are using Closet Selector to manage their standard and upgrade offerings for closet storage throughout the homes they sell. Closet Selector is the revolutionary online tool that provides 3D renders of all the closet options. Builders can finally provide their homebuyers with storage options that meet their needs and budget. With the right technology tools and the right mix of products, builders can grow their business and increase sales.
"Builders love Closet Selector because it's a program that benefits them and their homebuyer first and foremost. Efficient storage matters to buyers of every age but millennials are giving builders a wakeup call. This is an option for homebuyers that cannot be overlooked. Closets matter!" said Theresa Finnigin, Vice President of Marketing at Organized Living.
Storage is top of mind for millennials when buying their first home. Even on their first day of move-in, millennials want smarter and better ways to store things. They are always looking to be and do better than the generation before. Smart builders are listening to millennials and their needs. Now is the time to seize the opportunity to add storage and organization to the selection and design process for all homebuyers.

Axiom Prepaid Holdings has upped its support for the 36 members states and countries of the Single Euro Payments Area with its White Label multi-currency prepaid card program. According to Steven Foster, CEO, global card programs can only reach their maximum effectiveness if local currencies and varying exchange rates are factored in.

LONDON (PRWEB) MAY 01, 2020
While COVID-19 continues to cause turmoil across the globe, Axiom Prepaid Holdings has upped its support for the 36 members states and countries of the Single Euro Payments Area with its White Label multi-currency prepaid card program. According to Steven Foster, CEO, Axiom Prepaid Holdings, global card programs can only reach their maximum effectiveness if local currencies and varying exchange rates are factored in.
Axiom is a global provider of digitally-driven end-to-end payment solutions powered in large part by prepaid cards programs. Its White Label Program was introduced last year to help clients take advantage of the brand- and business-building opportunities of the fast-growing global prepaid cards market – something that has taken on great significance during the pandemic.
"White label" is the term given to products created by a third party, but have the client's name and logo on them. Axiom's White Label Program allows clients to create their own branded Visa or Mastercard prepaid card program that can be used for employee payroll, rewarding loyalty, paying commissions and more. The cards have proven especially popular among the unbanked as well as millennials and Gen X, who embrace less traditional banking options. Clients chose the fee structure, fund distribution channel and card features that work for them.
Axiom's White Label prepaid cards are accepted worldwide via iOS and Android app or physical card and can store up to eight currencies, including Euros as well as British pounds, Swiss Franc. Polish zloty and others. The cards are programmed to automatically recognize and use the local currency and exchange rate for those stored on the card at ATMs or with merchants. They are accepted at millions of locations across 210 countries and territories and online. The card can be loaded within the app or via the website, and allow for peer-to-peer transfers, spend tracking and direct deposit. Likewise, fraud protection, text and email alerts, and around-the-clock customer service are standard.
"Now more than ever, Axiom wants to help clients simplify the banking experience and boost their brand visibility," added Foster. "Our White Label program ensures the card experience is smooth and the benefits are big for users on a global scale."
About Axiom Prepaid Holdings:
Axiom Prepaid Holdings was started with one goal in mind: To make financial services easier – for everyone. Through the power of digitally-driven end-to-end payment solutions, the company provides prepaid card options for the unbanked and underserved; and white label programs to companies that want to showcase their brands while offering customers and employees alternatives to traditional money management.

This small family business could be changing the face of retail

NEWBURYPORT, MASS. (PRWEB) MAY 01, 2020
Mill 77 Trading Company has introduced a Virtual 3D retail tour of their showroom today.
https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=iTsD4ZHs68d
"I believe that the COVID 19 pandemic is going to continue to change the retail shopping habits of consumers indefinitely. If retailers want to survive, we need to change and adapt with them. This 3D Technology allows our customers to comfortably walk through our showroom in the safe and secure environment of their home. It also allows us to showcase who we are." Said Owner, Gary Bergeron.
"When we were mandated to shut down in March, we tackled putting up a retail website, but we knew long term that wouldn't be enough. We have always believed in creating a walk-through experience in our showrooms and this 3D tour is a virtual extension of that. We launched the tour of our first showroom today. We will launch the next 2 showrooms within a month" said Bergeron.
Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, Mill 77 Trading Company began an online store in March of this year. The almost 2-month shutdown forced us to lay off 12 people. That's the first time in almost 10 years that we've had to do something like that. We are a family business and luckily, everyone in the family has been volunteering and pitching in to fill online orders. Between not being open for our retail customers, and not being able to sell directly to our wholesale customers, it has been a challenge" Said Bergeron.
"We sell a unique look, a feel, an experience. Our first choice is for our customers to walk in and enjoy all of that. This New 3D tour allows us to provide our customers the next best thing. We've invested in it because we believe it could very well be one aspect to ensure the future of retail for Mill 77".
About Mill 77 Trading Company
Mill 77 offers a wide variety of New & Unique Vintage inspired home furnishings in their 15,000 sq. ft. showroom and workspace. The company started in 2010 when the owners Gary and Julie found themselves suddenly "outsourced" from our corporate careers. At a time called 'The worst job market since the great depression', employment was nowhere on the horizon. Like many families during that time, the heartbreak of losing their home to foreclosure fast became a reality. Moving from the family home into a small apartment, was a not so gentle reminder of the stark difference between want and need. While searching for a place to sell what they couldn't take and after years of hobying in the furniture refinishing market, an idea started to form.
With the help and support of family and friends, using every piece of their own furniture as inventory, Mill 77 Trading Company began. Continuing to evolve over the past 9 years, the company has settled into the Newburyport facility after outgrowing the first two locations. Today the company is truly a family owned and run operation, where the children and grandchildren work to help keep the dream alive, and has quickly become a place where family, friends and customers gather. "Mill 77 is Where Everything Gets a Second Chance."

Event was previously postponed until August 17-19, 2020

MIAMI (PRWEB) MAY 01, 2020

Lincoln Military Housing (LMH) team members set up drive-through distribution sites at seven community centers on Camp Pendleton to provide military family residents convenient access to essential items. Resources for the contact-free distribution sites were made possible through a collaboration with Operation Homefront and include essential items such as personal hygiene products and food items.
The initiative was informed by resident feedback and military community surveys such as the most recent Pain Point Survey from Blue Star Families dated 4/19/2020, which found that 60% of military family respondents would like grocery delivery or curbside pickup. The survey also noted that 9% of military family respondents have a member of their household that is at high risk of infection, and the family cannot shop for groceries or medicine for fear of exposure.
"We understand this is a difficult time for everyone, including our residents, and want to do as much as possible to assist our families," said Jill Dorflinger, Regional Vice President of Lincoln Military Housing. "We are committed to working with organizations like Operation Homefront and the Food Bank of San Diego to bring as many resources as possible closer to home and prevent our residents from having to leave their community more than necessary."
Because of the high demand, Operation Homefront can only access the food bank resources once every two weeks. They do, however, receive other donations that are made available to LMH for purchase at a reduced rate. In addition to the food items donated, LMH purchases the additional resources made available by Operation Homefront to provide meals to go and snack pickups for residents throughout the communities on regular rotations.
"We are always excited to receive donations from Operation Homefront for our families. Because sometimes we don't know what we are going to be receiving, we work hard to make sure the bags are full of quality products," said Brooke St. James, Event Coordinator with Lincoln Military Housing.
Additional food resources are also available from the Armed Services YMCA (ASYMCA) located on the Camp Pendleton installation. Held on the 4th Friday of the month, the ASYMCA provides 300 families with food and diapers and have transitioned to a drive-thru option. Military families are encouraged to register as the slots tend to fill up quickly. Feeding San Diego has also set up a meal distribution for children and teens at the San Diego Armed Services YMCA, where meals are available Monday through Saturday. For more information on food assistance programs operating during the Coronavirus Crisis, visit https://lincolnmilitary.com/military-resources/.

During Hurricane Preparedness Week 2020 (May 3-9) homeowners are reminded to safely prepare their homes and families for the upcoming 2020 Hurricane Season. Scepter SmartControl fuel containers are a smart way to keep fuel handy for unexpected storms.

MIAMI, OKLA. (PRWEB) MAY 01, 2020
Hurricanes Arthur, Bertha and Cristobal may soon be taking on powerhouse COVID-19. Along with adhering to every day precautions against the coronavirus, during Hurricane Preparedness Week 2020 (May 3-9) homeowners are reminded to safely prepare their homes and families for the upcoming 2020 Hurricane Season.
Two famous hurricane forecaster systems, AccuWeather and Colorado State University's Department of Atmospheric Science, both predict the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season will see strong weather patterns with above-normal conditions.
AccuWeather predicts 14 to 18 named tropical storms this hurricane season, of which, seven to nine will turn into hurricanes. Two to four of the hurricanes are predicted to be classified as major. Colorado State University's forecast mimics these predictions, calling for 16 named storms turning into eight hurricanes, four of which will be classified as major. If the predictions come true, this will be the fifth consecutive hurricane season with above-average activity in the Atlantic basin.
Get Essentials Now 
In preparation for the 2020 Hurricane Season, which extends from June 1 to November 30, homeowners are encouraged to order supplies earlier than usual.
"Continued shelter-in-place restrictions in many areas associated with COVID-19 means it may be challenging for people to stock up on hurricane season necessities," says Daniel Marshall, vice president of marketing and business development with Scepter. "Now is the time, before the storm season kicks off, to review your family's safety plans and to stock up on essentials."
Fueling Up 
As homeowners review their checklist of needed pre-hurricane supplies, Marshall reminds people to consider their fuel needs. "Having a fresh supply of gasoline, diesel and kerosene fuel available to power everything from generators to chain saws is critical during hurricane season," says Marshall. "With the 'above-normal' forecast, people should make sure their fuel supplies are topped off, and that their fuel containers are in good working shape."
Marshall recommends homeowners acquire both Scepter SmartControl fuel containers for fuel readiness and the 14-gallon wheeled Scepter Duramax for high-capacity fuel needs.
"If people are restricted and cannot get to the store, they can order these containers online from major retailers like Walmart, The Home Depot and Lowe's," says Marshall. "No one should wait to get these items until a storm is forecast for their area. By then they run the chance of depleted inventory."
Available in one-, two- and five-gallon sizes, the SmartControl line includes high-density polyethylene containers for gasoline, diesel and kerosene. The innovative spout design makes it easy to fuel equipment without losing a single drop.
The clean, fast, hassle-free pour of the SmartControl container helps save fuel for where it's needed by eliminating messy spills. The user-controlled flow valve with its flame mitigation device (FMD) makes it effortless and safe to direct the amount of fuel being dispensed. Homeowners can store SmartControl containers with the spouts on, so hands always stay clean. Videos showcasing proper filling and safe use of Scepter fuel containers are available on the company's website.
To handle larger fuel needs, the rugged Duramax has a patented pump handle with a spill-proof shut-off. The unit has a flow rate of two gallons of fuel per minute when in the siphon mode. Sturdy six-inch wheels help easily transport the container to marine dock areas, farms and work locations.
As an added bonus, Duramax has a bolt-on hanger for convenient hose storage. The ergonomically-designed, heavy-duty top handle on the container features extra deep handholds for transport. And, molded-in feet keep the container off the floor for increased ventilation and stability.
Smart Advice: Store Water 
To help people prepare for a storm, Scepter also offers a five-gallon BPA-free water container that is available in stores and online. Filling these with water prior to a storm assures homeowners of clean, fresh water for their own use, plus for their pets.
"Having several five-gallon water containers filled in advance of bad weather is a smart move," says Marshall. "Durable, reusable Scepter water containers are a reliable way to have large quantities of water available for home use.
"In advance of severe weather, whether it's a hurricane or a blizzard, it's always smart to have both fuel and water containers filled up at a home and business. This comes in handy when it's difficult to navigate roadways and services are down."
Constructed in North America of durable and safe high-density polyethylene, Scepter fuel and water containers can be found online and throughout the U.S. in The Home Depot, Walmart, Lowe's, AutoZone, Pep Boys, Target and Northern Tool + Equipment stores. Visit http://www.scepter.com for more information.

Before the 2020 Hurricane Season begins, make sure to fuel up generators. Having Scepter SmartControl fuel containers ready is a smart idea for coastal area homeowners.

In advance of severe weather, it's always smart to have both fuel and water containers filled up at a home and business. This comes in handy when it's difficult to navigate roadways and services are down.

Dale Earnhardt, Jr.'s pirate-themed conch house in Key West, Florida is for sale and featured this week at TopTenRealEstateDeals.com.

POMPANO BEACH, FLA. (PRWEB) MAY 01, 2020
"Dale Earnhardt, Jr.'s Key West Pirate Home"
Affectionately known by NASCAR fans as the Pied Piper of Daytona, Dale Earnhardt, Jr. is much more than an award-winning, race-car driver, but also oversees a myriad of businesses that would exhaust most top business-school grads. One of his most successful new ventures is restoring historical Key West homes, preserving their original charm, adding modern features that make the homes comfortable and even introducing whimsical features. His latest work, designed with a hat tip to the island's pirate days, is in the Old Town neighborhood near the Mallory Square and Duval Street shops, trendy bars, cool restaurants, parades and street entertainers - priced at $3.7 million.
Having semi-retired in 2017 after 21 years as a full-time, stock-car driver and amassing 26 victories, Earnhardt still races occasionally between overseeing his businesses and restoring homes in Key West. Dale comes from a long line of NASCAR drivers from his grandfather, Ralph Earnhardt; his famous father, NASCAR Hall-of-Famer Dale Earnhardt, Sr. and other Earnhardt family relations also in the fast-cars business. He is owner of JR Motorsports, Hammerhead Entertainment, a signature line of eyeglass frames, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Chevrolet, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Buick-GMC-Cadillac. He also owns two Whiskey River Beer and Wings restaurants in North Carolina and is co-owner of an auto and truck-filter mail-supply company.
In 2018, Dale and his interior-designer wife, Amy, really got into the creative spirit in Key West finding old conch houses to restore. The first house they restored was recorded in a four-part reality TV series for DIY Network called "Renovation Realities: Dale Jr. & Amy." On completion, the house sold in just days. Their second house has been completed and has recently been put on the market.
Built in 1863 during the Civil War and full of old Key West charm that has seen its share of the country's history - the most southern city in the contiguous U.S. and an extended vacation town for presidents including Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman and Dwight Eisenhower - the Earnhardts' latest project is quite large compared to most of the Key West homes at 3,306 square feet with five bedrooms and four baths. Deceptive in size from the gingerbread front entrance, the rooms retain most of the original architecture along with added pirate and nautical themes. Rope-wrapped columns, lots of wood, a ship's wheel on the side of the large wrap-around bar in the kitchen and parrots sitting up in the rafters watching the goings on. On the second floor there is even a secret floor hatch that can be lifted to spy on the mates below. The swimming pool is huge by Key West standards over two fathoms deep. For non-pirates, that would be 14-feet, a perfect place to hone one's scuba-diving skills. Across the cultivated-jungle garden is a guest house and above the pool on the second-story, wrap-around balcony is a gate where walking the plank into the water below is a real possibility. When the six-toed cat appears on the front porch, it can be easily returned to Ernest Hemmingway's house down the street, and as a reward, stop by Sloppy Joes for a lazy-afternoon gin and tonic.
Dale, Jr. and Amy Earnhardt's pirate-themed conch house whimsically speaks to Key West's historical beginnings. Now for sale at $3.7 million, the house is listed with Bob and Debbie Cardenas of Ocean Sotheby's International Real Estate, Key West, Florida.

SEATTLE (PRWEB) SEPTEMBER 04, 2019
Today, Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) announced the release of the first comprehensive transportation electrification strategy developed by a municipal utility in the United States, titled Seattle City Light: Transportation Electrification Strategy.

“This report creates a roadmap for Seattle City Light both to enable and respond to this rapidly changing market, ensuring that Seattle remains a global leader in reducing carbon emissions,” said Lynn Daniels, Manager at Rocky Mountain Institute.

Building on RMI’s earlier reports, From Gas to Grid, which explored the role of utilities in building out electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, and Electric Vehicles as Distributed Energy Resources, which identified how utilities can capture the benefits of EVs, this report identifies key actions for Seattle City Light to take to expand its market presence and strategic vision as electric vehicle adoption scales.

Seattle is already a leader in this space, with its “Drive Clean Seattle” initiative, which aims to improve access to EV charging stations and prioritize publicly available charging to enable shared mobility and fleet electrification. Actions include the provision of 20 direct current fast chargers (DCFCs) that Seattle City Light is already deploying in areas underserved by private-sector charging networks.

But with battery pack costs expected to fall to an average $150 per kilowatt-hour this year, it will soon be economically advantageous for numerous market segments to switch to electric vehicles. Seattle City Light knew that it would need to start preparing for a surge in electricity demand on its system, so it partnered with RMI to assess the demand that transportation electrification would impose on its system.

RMI identified several state- and citywide efforts that will continue to drive strong demand for vehicle charging infrastructure in Seattle:

Washington state’s passenger vehicle market continues to see strong growth, with the share of EVs having increased 31% from 2016 to 2017. To support this, private charging developers, with support from the Washington State Department of Transportation and the Seattle Department of Transportation, are investing heavily in EV charging stations.
Seattle’s major public transit agency, King County Metro (Metro), has established a goal to fully electrify its fleet of more than 1,400 buses by 2040. To date, Metro operates 11 all-electric buses and plans to procure 120 more by 2020.

In 2017, the Port of Seattle (the Port) established a strategic objective to be the greenest, most efficient port in North America, including carbon neutrality by 2050 on both direct and indirect sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Supporting this effort, the Port has implemented a Clean Truck program, as a partner in the Northwest Seaport Alliance.
The City of Seattle has set an ambitious target of 30% EV adoption, along with a commitment to a fossil-fuel-free municipal fleet, both by 2030.
Recently passed state legislation (HB 2042) extended a tax credit for electric vehicles, enabled utilities to invest in electric vehicle charging infrastructure, provided funding for electric car sharing in low-income communities, provided grants for transit agencies to transition to electric buses, and funded additional fast charging stations across the state.

The City has committed to environmental equity through its Race and Social Justice Initiative, including a particular focus on transportation equity. As a city department, City Light has deepened its focus on historically marginalized communities and racial equity in its decision-making process.
The report’s key recommendations for Seattle City Light include:
Invest in charging infrastructure, including utility-owned DCFCs and grid upgrades needed to support private-sector DCFC networks, to make fast charging available to all residents.
Support deployment of nonutility-owned DCFCs for ridesharing drivers and for residents of multiunit dwellings and underserved communities.

Provide incentives and technical expertise for installing Level 2 chargers at residences and workplaces.
Explore and pilot electricity rates that make electric transportation cost-competitive with transportation by conventional vehicles, and that make it possible to operate profitable private-sector DCFC networks.
Improve customer service to offer streamlined and transparent interconnection and service upgrade processes for new charging stations.

Develop digital content to help customers make informed decisions about buying EVs.
Establish standards to encourage “smart charging” during low-cost hours and to support the use of EVs as flexible grid assets.
Prepare for heavy-duty electrification, and support the electrification needs of partner agencies such as Metro and the Port, by offering responsive rates, incentives, grid infrastructure, technology demonstration and siting analysis.
Prepare to support urban fleet and freight operators and develop packaged charging solutions, including financing, make-ready investments, smart charging and incentives for charging depots.
“Investing in charging infrastructure and proactively engaging with fleet and transit customers are two of the most important ways that City Light can accelerate the transition to electric vehicles in Seattle. We’re very proud to help lead the way to cleaner air, lower transportation costs and more equitable access to transportation in our city,” said Brendan O’Donnell, Manager of Planning, Strategy and Analytics at Seattle City Light, who led the strategy project.

SigmaSense LLC, the pioneering performance leader in capacitive imaging technology, announces the industry’s first on-cell interactive display that provides unmatched signal-to noise-performance sensitivity while driven by only one half volt of channel drive voltage. SigmaSense’s capacitive imaging technology provides both touch and object imaging even when liquids or other contaminants are present on the display surface. SigmaSense’s technology overcomes performance and functionality barriers as when touch point resistance exceeds 1M ohm in resistance, another industry first. This allows for a wide variety of sensor materials and sensor designs to be used to meet application, cost and mechanical objectives.

Perceptive displays are bringing the next significant advance in user experiences

Sensing touch on interactive infotainment displays has been an industry challenge as screen sizes can grow to the width of the entire dash â€" over 50 inches. Now, SigmaSense’s capacitive imaging technology frees designers from traditional constraints on sensor size, sensor material and design parameters. New sensor materials, such as poly based flexible sensors, are now possible even for irregularly shaped sensors. Designers are now able to provide optimized touch sensor solutions with improved optics and accuracy but without challenging design constraints or lengthy and costly tuning cycles. SigmaSense’s capacitive imaging technology also provides an accurate, low latency image of the entire display surface. This breakthrough capability is a boon to OEMs who desire to use curved or flexible displays for enhanced user experiences. Flexible sensors enable capacitive imaging on seats, steering wheels, windows, plastic interior surfaces and touch enabled button control functions. Capacitive Imaging can sense touch on other objects or surfaces that could not previously be sensed. A capacitive imaging based system provides the data for AI categorization enabling the next generation of perceptive user experience.

“Designers now have the freedom to use any type of touch sensor material, as well as any size and configuration sensor to provide optimal designs. Seats, plastic surfaces and contoured control surfaces can now include sensors and be touch enabled,” said Steve Sedaker, CMO, SigmaSense. “Capacitive touch innovations have stalled over the last decade with very limited incremental improvements. Our capacitive imaging technology can drive over 1M ohm channel touch point resistance, a breakthrough that tears down barriers and enables new use cases that were simply not possible before.”

Capacitive imaging will be exhibited at the Vehicle Display 2019 conference in Livonia Michigan, September 24-25th, table 29. Please join us and see firsthand these breakthroughs in action.

Kalamazoo Valley Community College to Host October 3 Skilled Trades Expo
In celebration of National Advanced Manufacturing Week, Kalamazoo Valley Community College's Advanced Technology Center is hosting an October 3 Skilled Trades Expo. Projections show Michigan will experience a professional trades workforce gap with more than 545,000 job openings through 2026 due to retiring baby boomers and the emergence of new technologies.
During the expo at the Texas Township Campus, prospective students will learn about automotive technology, electrical technology, HVAC, engineering, design and manufacturing technology, welding technology and training for other skilled trades and technical careers – all available through Kalamazoo Valley. There will also be free food, door prizes and free parking.
The event will include: 

Tours of the professional and skilled trades labs

Hands-on skills demonstrations

Time to talk with employers and instructors

An opportunity to meet with industry leaders

Observing classes while in session

Learning about financial aid, internships and apprenticeships

"A career in the professional trades lets you leverage your talents, work ethic and know-how to do things that matter -- to help design and build our future in jobs that are vital to keeping Michigan healthy, strong and growing," said Dean of Instruction for Math, Science and Health, Dr. Paige Eagan. "And while you are making a difference in the workforce, you have the potential to bring home the kind of paycheck that will make a difference for you and your family."
Welding instructor Erick Martin said visitors to the college's Advanced Technology Center are always impressed with the cutting edge equipment. He's glad to have an opportunity to show Kalamazoo Valley's labs off to the community and is eager to talk about the many benefits of pursuing a career in the skilled trades. "For years and years, people were told not to go into the skilled trades," said Martin, who has taught at the college for 23 years. "Now, we're the saving grace of the economy."
Martin is confident graduates of his program are well prepared for the workforce and he knows welding can open many doors. "Our skill set is broad so for the rest of your career, you have options," he said. Martin notes that training for skilled trades careers often requires less schooling and less debt than a traditional four-year degree.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents several major car insurance mistakes that drivers should avoid.
For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/costly-auto-insurance-mistakes/
Car insurance was created to financially protect both the driver and its vehicle. Any mistake can cost the policyholder several hundred or even thousands of dollars per year, or it can leave him without proper protection. Drivers who do not know what each policy covers can make some huge mistakes.
Drivers should avoid the following major mistakes: 

Going to policy negotiations without having all the required documents. Getting car insurance is not simple. Drivers will not simply go to an insurance agency, sign a document, and handle some money. The procedure of getting insurance is more complex. Drivers should first call the insurance company and ask what documents they need to prepare. Then drivers should prepare the documents and handle them when asked by the car insurance agent. Also, drivers should know information about their driving history, graduated defensive courses, VIN number, and so on. The insurance agent will probably reschedule the meeting if the driver doesn't' have all the required documents.

Not demanding the insurance agent to explain the terms that are not familiar. Many policyholders are not familiar with some of the insurance terms. Where there are some unclarities, drivers should ask the insurance agents to explain them. It will be a great mistake to sign an insurance deal without fully understanding it.

Not obtaining quotes before the negotiation. Online quotes can help drivers compare prices from multiple insurance providers. It only takes a few minutes to compare prices and find a policy that can offer the proper coverage at an affordable price. Also, online quotes can help drivers to be mentally prepared for the negotiation meeting.

Carinsuranceshoppingsource.com has launched a new blog post that presents several efficient tips that will help drivers pay lower car insurance rates.
For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://carinsuranceshoppingsource.com/top-tips-on-how-to-save-on-car-insurance/
Car insurance policies can cost as much as several thousands of dollars per year. It might not look much, but for many families, car insurance can be a burden. Some are even considering dropping coverage.
Drivers who consider dropping coverage should follow the next tips on how to save on car insurance: 

Graduate a defensive driving course. Very young drivers are charged extra on their insurance policies. Insurance providers consider than teens are high-risk drivers because they lack driving experience. Also, statistics show that teen drivers are more likely to be involved in car accidents. Teen drivers can lower their insurance rates by enrolling and graduating a defensive driving course.

Clean driving record. Drivers who manage to avoid parking tickets, speeding tickets, at-fault accident convictions, DUI incident convictions, and other traffic violation penalties for a period that is between three to five years can get a safe driving discount. However, drivers who got some tickets present in their driving records should talk with a lawyer and check if they can be expunged.

Install safety devices. Many modern vehicles come equipped with the latest safety devices. Drivers who do not own a modern vehicle can improve the safety of their vehicles by installing aftermarket safety devices. Rear cameras, safer seatbelts, tracking devices, and other devices will help policyholders save money on car insurance. However, policyholders should ask their insurers what safety devices are approved and how much money they can save after installing them.

Get a low-mileage discount. Drivers who are using their vehicles to commute to work on short distances can qualify for a low-mileage discount.

Obtain a loyalty discount. Policyholders who are loyal to the same insurance provider for a number of years can get a loyalty discount upon renewing the insurance contract.

Bundle policies with the same insurer. Policyholders who insure two or more vehicles to the same provider can gain a multi-car policy discount. Also, policyholders can insure their cars policies with different insurance products like homeowner's insurance, life insurance, health insurance, or even boat insurance. In this case, drivers who insure two or more different insurance products will get a multi-policy discount.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that explains how high-risk drivers can obtain lower car insurance premiums.
For more info and free quotes, visit https://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/tips-that-can-help-high-risk-drivers-get-affordable-car-insurance/
Obtaining a cheap car insurance policy is quite difficult for drivers that are classified as high-risk. There are many reasons why insurance companies classify some drivers as high-risk. No matter the reason why they are classified as such, they all have something in common, and that is the extremely expensive premiums.
High-risk drivers who want to pay less on their policies can follow the next tips: 

Go to specialized non-standard insurers. Many insurance providers have subsidiaries or are working with smaller insurers that are specialized in insuring high-risk drivers. Big Insurance carriers can provide insurance for high-risk drivers, but usually, their offers are extremely expensive. For this reason, most high-risk drivers prefer to get insurance from a specialized carrier that offers better deals.

Insure a cheap car. A slightly used vehicle that has a high safety rating would be the ideal choice for a high-risk driver that wants to save money on car insurance. There's no need to insure a brand-new vehicle when even cars that are 4, or 5 years old come equipped with many safety features that can guarantee the owner to get a discount.

Look for available discounts. High-risk drivers can obtain the same discounts as standard drivers. High-risk drivers will lower their insurance rates if they are eligible for discounts such as getting married, graduating a defense course, or moving to a better neighborhood discount.

Compare car insurance quotes. High-risk drivers can still find offers from multiple car insurance companies. Before signing to a specialized insurance carrier, drivers should compare several online car insurance quotes and check if they can find a better deal

Consider dropping coverage. Drivers who own an old or cheap vehicle should check if keeping full coverage still makes sense. If a vehicle value is less than ten full coverage payments, then high-risk drivers should consider dropping full coverage.

Improve the credit score. High-risk drivers who have a bad credit score are paying some of the highest insurance premiums in the country. To improve their credit score, high-risk drivers can pay their bills on time and they can stop gathering an additional debt.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that explains how dropping full coverage in various scenarios can help drivers save money on car insurance.
For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/how-to-lower-car-insurance-rates-by-dropping-full-coverage/
In almost all states, except New Hampshire, drivers are required to carry car insurance. Besides the minimum car insurance that is required by the state law, drivers can acquire additional coverages, like full coverage. In some cases, drivers who are having full coverage can be overpaying for something that is really not worth it.
Drivers who have full coverage are advised to drop it in the following situations: 

The vehicle is too old. The value of a vehicle will decrease as soon as it's leaving the showroom. Unless the car is a collectible, it's value will continue to decrease with each year that passes. Keeping full coverage for a vehicle that is 10 years old or older is not worth it.

High-mileage. Drivers who use their cars very often, should not be surprised if their vehicles are not as valuable as they think. Relatively new vehicles that are 4, or 5 years cold can drastically lose their value if they were driven for 200,000 miles or even more. In this case, full coverage is not worth it.

The car is in a really bad condition. Even if a vehicle has sentimental value, this should not be a reason to keep full coverage on a car that is covered in rust.

The loan has been paid. Banks and other financial institutions that are financing a vehicle will impose the owner to carry full coverage. Once the driver fully owns the vehicle, then he can choose to drop full coverage.

The driver can't afford to pay anymore. Policyholders who entered into financial troubles can save some by dropping full coverage and using them in another place.

The vehicle is being kept in a garage. A garage can protect a vehicle from weather damage, theft, vandalism, and fire. Drivers who decide to drop full coverage should ensure that they are driving carefully and they are not causing accidents. If they do cause an accident, then they will have to cover the cost to repair the vehicle from their own pockets.

Carinsuranceshoppingsource.com has launched a new blog post that presents several advantages of comparing online car insurance quotes.
For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://carinsuranceshoppingsource.com/a-short-list-with-advantages-of-comparing-online-quotes/
Comparing online quotes can help drivers decide what insurance policy is the best for them. The main reason for obtaining quotes is to estimate the cost of an insurance policy. Accurate quotes will help policyholders manage their budget and scan the market for insurance coverage they can afford.
Comparing online quotes will help drivers gain the following advantages: 

It's fast and reliable. Using a brokerage website is very useful for those persons who are interested in car insurance quotes, but who do not want to waste time and money while shopping around in a traditional manner. Before the internet, drivers had to go from one insurance agent to another to obtain quotes. Also, getting quotes from insurance agents is not free. Phone calling insurance companies' representatives is also time-consuming and quotes can be inaccurate if the insurer representative mishears the policyholder.

Easy to customize quotes. Drivers can simulate many different insurance plans by tweaking the information inserted in the online questionnaire. They can change what coverages they want, coverage limits, deductibles, and extra options. By doing so, drivers can tailor a policy that is suitable for their needs.

No more stress. Getting online car insurance quotes has lots of benefits for policyholders. Not having to deal with a car insurance agent is one of the biggest benefits. Car insurance agents are working for car insurance providers, and they will try to convince the drivers to buy insurance from them. In many cases, car insurance agents can be pushy and will pressure the drivers to buy insurance products that they don't actually need. Car insurance brokers who claim that they are independent can also be biased towards an insurance company. Comparing online quotes will help drivers avoid pressure in order to make a responsible decision.

Azuga, the leading provider of connected vehicle and fleet technologies, today announced the launch of Azuga SafetyCam. Its proprietary WiFi-enabled, dash-mounted monitoring solution rounds out the company's comprehensive award-winning safety portfolio designed to monitor and improve driver behavior, reduce risk and ultimately lower costs related to driving incidents. This coupled with the launch of its virtual coaching system, Azuga Coach, reflects the company's commitment to keeping fleet drivers safe and insurance premiums down for their companies.
Azuga SafetyCam is designed with high-definition, 1080p road-facing and driver-facing cameras that record evidence in the event of an accident, offering immediate proof of an accident's cause and who is at fault during the insurance claims process. With Azuga SafetyCam, fleet-based businesses can rest assured knowing that they have the technology needed for liability protection that can make the difference between an insurance pay-out or a denied claim.
"According to the American Trucking Association, 70% of all accidents are not the fault of the commercial driver, yet in most cases, the company is deemed at fault. With Azuga SafetyCam, businesses and their insurance providers benefit from having a first-hand perspective into incident specifics, which helps in identifying who is at fault, during an accident or traffic violation," said Ananth Rani, CEO and co-founder of Azuga. "With an already proven track record of reducing accident frequency and severity by 50%, we can now deliver a solution which can exonerate drivers, further reduce insurance premiums and ensure that business operations can get back to normal."
Along with assessing accidents after they happen, Azuga SafetyCam can be used to identify and reduce unsafe driving behaviors before accidents ever occur. While Azuga SafetyCam is continuously recording vehicle trips, it can automatically detect at-risk driving behaviors and will upload video before and after they occur, such as hard braking, sudden acceleration or hard cornering, by leveraging intelligence gathered from Azuga Fleet's GPS telematics solution. Fleet managers can then review these video clips to proactively identify poor driving habits and use them as real-life examples when coaching drivers to curb bad driving behaviors.
In addition to the launch of SafetyCam, Azuga is expanding its safety platform by partnering with Driving Dynamics to launch Azuga Coach, an online video-based training tool for its customers. Azuga Coach integrates Driving Dynamics' award-winning DrivActiv eLearning training suite into Azuga's telematics platform, where drivers will be assigned targeted online training videos based on their individual driving scores.
"With the launch of Azuga SafetyCam and the debut of Azuga Coach, fleets can tap into the power of video to improve driver safety behind the wheel, which ultimately helps fleet-based businesses protect their bottom line and ensure safe operations throughout the communities in which they serve," added Tom Erdman, executive vice president of business development and insurance telematics at Azuga.
The Azuga SafetyCam dual-facing video camera can be bundled into existing contracts free of charge or purchased without a contract for $99, plus monthly service fees. Visit http://www.azuga.com to set up a demo for Azuga SafetyCam or to learn more about Azuga's video-enabled safety solutions.
