THE HOME BUILDING MARKET LEADS TAMPA OUT OF THE ECONOMIC DOLDRUMS

0
0

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Newswire.net- January 13, 2013) Tampa, FL-  The custom home builders and home building contractors that specialize in custom built homes have actually developed a following that has not waned significantly since the economic downturn.  Perhaps the reason for these builders to not suffer as much may be due to the fact that their audience of customers are not as cash flow sensitive as the rest of the middle to lower middle class sector that cannot survive with smaller changes in income variations for the worse. 

The disposable income meter is much more sensitive with the lower sector of $65,000 and below in annual income versus the $100,000+ crowd.  There is a sense that the $100,000+ is much more than just $100,000 but with basic necessities cared for like food and housing, there is a greater savings component than others can enjoy.  The downturn has forced a lot of the population to downsize and become more thrifty in their spending habits and thus leading to a greater savings rate than others given their base level of needs to survive.

Since the housing market comprises a significantly larger proportion of the net worth belonging to the average American, it is this area of their balance sheet that embodies both their asset and liability.  With more equity, the asset rises and with more debt, the liability rises.  In short, the net worth is affected and contributes to the overall wealth factor. 

Tampa’s home building sector has experienced no different an experience than seen in the rest of the country.  For more home building and contractor information and custom building information in Tampa, contact Boger Homes at: http://www.bogerhomes.com (813) 949-0074

 

 


Hiring a Roofing Company in Charlotte, NC: Important Considerations

0
0

(Newswire.net –- January 14, 2013) Charlotte, NC -- When hiring a roofing company in the Charlotte area, these are the considerations.

CharlotteNCBusiness Channel has launched a video for homeowners on finding the best roofing company in the Charlotte, NC area and has developed some tips to ensure that consumers hire a responsible roofing company. 

Materials – Expected Life – Warranty.  There is a wide range of the quality of roofing materials and the expected lifetime of the roof.  Homeowners should clearly understand the grade of materials to be used by the roofing contractor and the expected life of the final roof project.  Homeowners should expect the contractor to deliver a warranty of reasonable length.  Some roofing contractors are able to provide an extended warranty through the roofing materials manufacturer.

Written Contract.  The roofing company should provide a written contract that completely describes the work to be performed, the specific materials to be used, the length of time required for project completion, the method that the house will be protected from rain during the duration of the work and the length and terms of the warranty.  Homeowners should not rely on any verbal descriptions of work, materials or warranty.

References.  Consumers should request at least three references of previous work done by the roofing company under consideration.  The references should be contacted and, if possible, the completed roofing projects should be viewed in person.  Online reviews should also be considered as multiple poor reviews showing up online are a possible indicator of a roofing contractor with problems.  Better Business Bureau ratings are another indicator of contractor quality and reliability and how problems are addressed after work completion. 

Insurance.  The roofing company should be expected to provide Certificates of Insurance providing for both Workers Compensation and Liability Insurance.  If there is any doubt about the validity of the Certificates of Insurance, the homeowner should verify the insurance coverage with the contractor’s insurance agent or insurance carrier.

Licensing.  Homeowners should make sure the roofing company is licensed by the state where the roofing project is located.  Since the Charlotte, NC metro area includes parts of North Carolina and South Carolina, most contractors work on both sides of the state line.  The contractor should be able to produce a proper license.  If there is a doubt, the homeowner can contact state licensing authorities in North Carolina or South Carolina

 


BioTrust Low Carb Protein Powder Reviews Revealed

(Newswire.net -- 14, Janurary, 2013) Houston, TX -- The market is flooded with choices of easy to use and convenient protein shakes and supplements. Protein shakes are probably the most popular of all the health and muscle building supplements of all time. Protein is absolutely essential to muscle growth and development. The problem people seem to have with protein is that they can’t seem to eat enough of it to get the best results from workouts. BioTrust Low Carb reviews reveal whether this protein supplement really works. 

It is nearly impossible to meet the protein needs of muscle development when people want to bulk up through food alone. Many protein shakes have unsavory ‘issues’ such as high carbohydrate concentrates, artificial sweeteners, artificial colors, artificial colors, protein from hormone treated cows, sub-par absorption, and undisclosed ingredients that people may be unaware of. BioTrust created their own Biotrust Low Carb Protein Powder; a protein supplement that is a blend of 4 types of proteins, unlike cheap whey protein, and is all natural. The company even hired the industry’s top taste experts to create a pleasant tasting shake so people will actually want to drink it.

BioTrust Low Carb Protein Powder reviews reveal that this protein supplement that comes with a one year money back guarantee is totally free of hormones- 100% all natural. There are a variety of flavors to choose from – Vanilla Cream, Milk Chocolate, Variety pack…more flavors coming; with no added artificial coloring, sweeteners, or flavors. Watching carbs is especially important when people are trying to lose weight or maintain weight loss. BioTrust Low Carb Protein Powder contains an amazingly small amount of net carbs per serving and its highly potent four protein blend offers a timed release. 

Stan Stevenson, a health and fitness reviewer states, “Many bars and shakes run upwards of 30 or more carbs per serving. That amount of carbohydrates is just far too much for the average weight lifter, or person that just needs an added boost in muscle development. BioTrust Low Carb Protein Powder is very low carb and is made with the best ingredients available. This low carb blend that is a truly high end protein supplement will not disappoint. Use this protein shake absolutely risk free and give your muscles a boost without gaining fat from the carbohydrates commonly crammed into other formulas.”

To try this protein supplement or to get more information about it one should go to the official website here.

(Newswire.net – January 15, 2013) San Francisco, CA -- Captain Richard Gillette will receive a Jefferson Award in San Franciscofor his work with youth who are disadvantaged, low income or suffering from life threatening diseases.

Captain Richard Gillette is the Founder and Executive Director of a life-altering program for children called Spirit of the Sea, in the San Francisco Bay area. His mission is to bring the Spirit of the Sea to youth with hands-on experiences aboard a sailing vessel.  These voyages serve to educate and inspire new awareness, perspectives, and initiative regarding the oceans, the environment, their communities, and themselves.

The health of our oceans and the future for our youth are in jeopardy. The problem today is that ocean and aquatic sciences are among the most under-represented disciplines in K-12 education curriculum. Spirit of the Sea addresses this problem by providing hands-on experience not available in a classroom. By providing a meaningful outdoor marine adventure aboard the organization's 64' sailboat, they provide a perfect environment to cultivate critical thinking skill, perseverance, teamwork and leadership skills.

This knowledge and experience enables the participants to make better choices in life. They get a broader sense of community, teamwork and self. They gain awareness that they have the ability to take action, be effective and influence their own lives, and assume responsibility for their own behaviors

“If people feel they understand the world around them…(then they) feel they can make a difference through their decisions and activities.” Dr. Frank Oppenheimer, Exploratorium Founder

Spirit of the Sea works closely with children who are at-risk, low income or are suffering from life threatening diseases at no cost to the participants. The organization works with groups of children who are formerly homeless, foster children, from the “inner” city, suffering from life threatening diseases such as cancer, part of Police Activities groups for at risk youth, learning or emotionally challenged, children of incarcerated parents, etc.

"For kids with life threatening diseases we provide a day out on the water, offering fun, adventure, education, fresh perspective and a respite from the cancer that haunts their lives. They enjoy time spent with family and friends in a context of support, joy, laughter, and hope. The children make healing connections; find strength, community, and courage to fight," offers Captain Richard Gillette, Founder.

Captain Gillette is uniquely qualified to introduce children to the Spirit of Sea. He has over 40 years of experience on boats and at sea with numerous long ocean passages.  Children love to hear his stories about sailing and the sea and they love learning about how the oceans affect our world and how what we do on land affects the ocean. He is a passionate advocate who excites and inspires children and crew with his vision, knowledge and passion.

On January 15th, Captain Gillette will receive the prestigious Jefferson award for Community Service for his outstanding work with 1000’s of children, inspiring them to learn about the oceans and themselves. (http://www.jeffersonawards.org/).

“The Jefferson Awards are a prestigious national recognition system honoring community and public service in America. The Jefferson Awards are presented on two levels: national and local. They began in 1972 to create a Nobel Prize for public service.”

Austin Gas Fireplace Repair Service Capitol Chimney - A Story of Beating the Odds and Expanding Despite Tough Times

0

(Newswire.net -- January 15, 2013) Austin, TX -- According to the Small Business Administration only 25% of businesses survive 10 years or more. The Small Business in Australia Agency reports that 90% of businesses fail within the first 10 years. (Source: A. J. Williams, The Characteristics and Performance of Small Business in Australia (1973 to 1985) (Newcastle: University of Newcastle, 1987). Capitol Chimney’s triumph continues into its 11th year bucking the small business odds.

 

Capitol Chimney's survival through the 2008 US financial crisis and subsequent economic debacle is all the more impressive. Families tightened down their spending. Chimney sweeping and gas fireplace cleaning services were already one of the most neglected services according to owner Walter Clarke.

 

Walter says, "Homeowners simply don't service their fireplaces until there's a problem. Unfortunately, with the extreme drought conditions and the blistering summers chimneys in the Central Texas area are under extreme duress. Then when a little bit of moisture or rain gets in there, cracks can form in the masonry and more expensively the flu liner. This can lead to $2500 chimney repairs or more."

 

Walter continues "At this point it's basically a full rebuild of the chimney and its moving parts." These expensive repairs could have been avoided with a simple annual inspection and maintenance. A routine visit or gas fireplace repair costs as little as $150 to $175. Since few Americans clean their chimneys and gas fireplaces themselves a once a year inspection seems a small price to pay to avoid a huge and unexpected repair bill.

 

Musty odors and smoke smells are also big problems. Walter advises not to ignore these smells. Especially when the smell can be pinpointed as emanating from the fireplace area, call an expert immediately. Get it checked before the problem grows and the repair bill swells.

 

Capitol Chimney is well-versed in handling the specific environmental conditions of the Austin, San Marcos, and surrounding Central Texas areas. Despite the bad economy, in 2010 Capital Chimney expanded into more service areas and opened a second office. The service area now includes from the northern San Antonio area of Cibolo, Selma, and Schertz all the way north of Austin to Georgetown.

 

Contact Walter from Capitol Chimney at (512) 834-2261 or via the company’s websites to set up your chimney inspection, fireplace cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, animal removal if you're hearing animal noises from your chimney or attic area, or gas fireplace repair. Calling is a quick and painless way to avoid massive repair bills.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - (NEWSWIRE.NET --January 14th, 2013) Chandler, AZ - Jen Kelman Has Recently Been Officially Designated Chandler's "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013"

The outcome of a current web survey in which responders were asked about to name "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013" yielded what some would be likely to assert was a incredibly foreseeable final result, business woman and well known advertising specialist Jen Kelman was chosen above any other recognizable name in Chandler.

The survey and ultimately, the designation of "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013" was created because of an intense discussion started about just who in Chandler would in reality be able to claim that title. In an attempt to help keep the competition fair to all residents, the competition was conducted over the internet and the winner was determined by area residents independently.

Just after introducing the poll, there seemed to be a intense contest for the title of "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013", but after the results were verified, there was a obvious and undeniable winner of the coveted title. Just after the poll closed, Jen Kelman was declared as the official "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013" for Chandler, AZ.

Local residents questioned about the ballot seemed to have split responses to Jen Kelman's claiming of the highly sought after title, varying from utter shock that one particular person could be so sought after, to complete agreement over the choice locals had decided upon.

Kelman was most likely established as "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013" by friends in large part due to the hard work Jen has produced for neighborhood retailers marketing and pr strategies. As a acknowledged online marketing authority that concentrates on organizations and businesses web based presence and promotion strategies, making claim of the official title was not a surprise to a sizable bulk of people who participated.

After the final results were in, Jen Kelman was cited as stating "To be completely honest, I did not even know that there was a survey going on at all. I'm amazed that many people are aware of my name"!

Ms. Kelman was also mentioned saying "I work hard on my organization, and am really ecstatic about what I have going on in 2013. Hearing that people here in Chandler have actually recognized me as "Coolest Mobile App Developer Of 2013" is not only an honor, it is also a privilege. Thank you very much to all residents that participated in the vote".

Jen Kelman can be reached at her organization by telephone at 480.363.4833

0

(Newswire.net via Emailnewswire.com - January 11, 2013) -- For Immediate Release

Today is the day that Easy Video Suite launches. For those that don't know, a few years ago, entrepreneur Josh Bartlett released a video marketing software called Easy Video Player (EVP) to the public and was an almost overnight sensation, filling a gap in the video marketing community. Since then Easy Video Player has cemented a strong footprint and large following within the internet community.

It's been over 2 years since the last version of EVP was released.  With online technology morphing and changing at such a rapid pace, it is difficult to keep up, let alone continue to be the market leader in your niche.  Today, EVP has evolved into Easy Video Suite, a comprehensive video marketing tool that allows its users to do the following:

  • New drag-n-drop functionality for easy usability
  • Screen capture their computer and add custom graphics, like hand-drawings and circles
  • Easy Importing of existing videos like mp4 and YouTuve, Vimeo, etc
  • Custom marketing features like social sharing, email optins, and split testing.
  • Creating timed events in videos or on the page, like call to actions and buy buttons 
  • Create custom video landing pages with the need of a website
  • Works on all devices, even mobile!

Best new feature of Easy Video Suite?  In our humble opinion, it is the optimization of the videos for display.  Easy Video Suite automatically converts and optimizes your videos at multiple screen sizes for various devices.  When using EVS on your web property, its video system will detect the visitor's browser dimensions and display the best sized video! This isn't just for desktop computers, but works for mobile as well.  In fact, the Easy Video Suite is launching Free mobile apps for both Android and iPhone that will allow its users to record, edit, process, and optimize videos right from their smartphones.

With the proliferation of smart phones and mobile devices, most people realize that the future of e-commerce lies in the palm of our hands.  In fact, industry leader Cisco published this stat:

  • The global online video community will increase by approximately 500 million users by 2015, up from more than 1 billion Internet video users in 2010.

With video marketing being such a powerful tool to connect with new customers to build trust and loyalty, it is imperative to optimize your videos for all devices and computers, even if you choose another tool than Easy Video Suite by Josh Bartlett.

So will Easy Video Suite continue to perform as a video marketing leader?  With the new optimizaton features and mobile apps, it sure appears to be the case.

FACEBOOK GRAPH SEARCH ANNOUNCEMENT TO HELP LOCAL BUSINESSES?

0
0

(Newswire.net via Emailnewswire.com - January 15, 2013) -- Los Angeles, CA -- Facebook Graph Search was announced by Mark Zuckerberg at a news conference today at Facebook's headquarters.  Many online marketing experts have long prognosticated that eventually Facebook would enter into the search game.  With close to 1 billion users worldwide, the social network giant appears poised to keep potential search queries within Facebook.

In addition, Facebook has now officially aligned forces with Microsoft's Bing, so that if any search queries can't be answered by Facebook's Graph Search, then users can find more links via Bing search results.

With this coming on the heels of Facebook's newest local feature, called "Nearby" it appears that Facebook must now be considered a major player in local search.  The question then becomes, "How will this help or hinder local businesses?"

When asked this question, CEO and founder of Local Business Rockstar, E-Rock Christopher, said this, "This has been in the works for quite some time.  I knew this was only a matter of time.  Now more than ever, local business owners must really pay attention to Facebook as an additional tool in their marketing arsenal.  That's exactly why we just launched a new Facebook app designed to help local business owners get more Facebook check-ins and reviews."

The application is designed to give local business owners to ability to generate their own special offers and deals to drive more customers to their location.  In return, the customer will "Like" the business's fanpage and check-in at the store upon purchase.  To see an example, you can visit this flower shop's fanpage.

Some people are concerned about the history of privacy issues that Facebook has exhibited in the past.  But Mark Zuckerberg and his "Dream Team" of Lars Rasmussen and Tom Stocky, both former Google employees, assure this won't be an issue due to "filters" and that your information can't be exposed outside of your network.

Futhermore, Zuckerberg states this won't be the same as traditional web searches:

"What’s more interesting than any of these things (that Facebook currently does) is giving people power and tools to take any cut of the graph that they want."

The big differentiator from the web searches will be that all these Facebook Graph Searches will be personalized by your social network.  Thus, no two Graph Searches will ever be the same, even if they use the same exact search query.

Facebook Graph Search is still currently in beta mode and will be rolled out slowly over time.  However, you can request to be a part of the testing process here.

Humble Automotive Locksmith warns residents to check license

0
0

(Newswire.net – January 15, 2013) Humble, TX- Humble businessman, John Hopper, reminds locals to get a firm quote and check for a state license before paying an automotive locksmith.  Many local residents are reporting being “ripped-off” by locksmiths who advertise rates as low as $19.  “I don’t know any reputable locksmith who will even show up for $19.”

A running theme shows local residents losing a car key or locking their keys into their car.  In a state of panic, they look up a locksmith online.  Instead of finding a locksmith in the Houston, Spring, or Humble, TX area, they find a call center located out of state.

 “These out of state folk purchase local telephone numbers and con people into thinking they are right here in TX, but in reality they aren’t even locksmiths.  They farm out the work and you don’t know who they are sending,” states Hopper.  Location however is not the only con.

Area residents report receiving bills of over $200 after being quoted only $19 on the phone.  The residents are inclined to pay up so they can get back into their car and on the road; but are thy over-paying? Hopper says that unless there is significant damage to the car and lock,   “Any reputable locksmith will give you a firm quote over the phone.” You shouldn’t have to pay someone over the phone just get them to come out. 

Stranded residents are often told the initial $19 payment will be put towards any work that they do and then are grossly under quoted for work.  It could take several hours for a locksmith to arrive and a customer who has already paid $19 is not likely going to turn away a high price just to start the price over again.

The state of Texas has required  locksmiths to be licensed and bonded since the beginning of 2004. , Fingerprints and criminal history checks are performed as part of the application process to ensure they do not have criminal convictions. A locksmith license should be shown on any advertisements, and on the locksmith’s website and vehicle.  Texas residents can verify a locksmith license by visiting the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Many individuals and companies are still performing services without the required license and the required criminal history check. Hopper warns that giving an unlicensed locksmith access to your car puts you at risk of criminal acts.

Use of Solar Panels to Soar in Adelaide in 2013

(Newswire.net -- January 17, 2013) Adelaide, Australia -- The benefits of solar energy have not gone unnoticed. Parts of the city of Cornwall, England are pushing for a solar and wind energy scheme that could power around twenty thousand homes. The company providing the energy has also offered close-by residents a sizable discount in their energy bills to go along with the money that they are already set to save. Keele University in Staffordshire is planning to overhaul some halls of residence to be entirely solar powered. This is expected to reduce utility costs and help with the school’s energy consumption, along with reducing carbon emissions by as much as 70 tons per year. Solar energy is set to be more popular this year than it has ever been and its widespread use is only expected to keep rising in numbers in the next few years to come. This is in great part because of the amount of research that is going into this field every day.

There are some drawbacks to using solar energy, but they seem to be outnumbered by the positive aspects. It decreases the electricity bill, does not emit any greenhouse gases and has a direct effect on the eco-system and livelihood of many people around the world. The advances in solar energy are not slowing down and researchers around the world are working to make solar energy more efficient and more accessible to everyone that might want it.

Solar energy may be considered expensive for most households but governments around the world are stepping in to make it easier for citizens to make the transition towards using solar energy.

Solar energy is not just accessible to companies and big institutions. The South Australian government has many incentives to encourage people to install solar energy in their homes. Many people are choosing to go for solar panels in Adelaide due to all the benefits associated with it, both environmental and monetary. It is important to make an informed decision about what you need. We can help you get there and find the best solution for your situation.

Manti Te'o Considered a Fraud, Victim, or Fool?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

(Newswire.net -- January 17, 2013) - South Bend, IN - Manti Te'o was the runner up of for the Heisman Trophy in 2012, and is one of the most beloved Notre Dame football players in recent memory.  Te'o lost his grandmother and supposed girlfriend, Lennay Kekua on the same day this fall within hours of one another prior to Notre Dame's game with Michigan State.  The loss of his grandmother was real, the loss of his girlfriend, was a hoax.  Whehter or not Manti Te'o was a victicm of "Catfishing", or if he used the information for his own benefit has yet to be determined.

 

There are many questions still unanswered concerning the online relationship between Te'o and Lennay Kekua, the fictious girlfriend strickend by cancer.  Notre Dame Athlethic Director Jack Swarbrick quickly jumped to Te'o defense and stated he was a victim of an elaborate hoax while fighting back tears during his press conference.  Through Swarbrick's press confernce, Notre Dame was quickly launched into the middle of the drama, with many questions still left unanswered. 

 

Questions such as why did Manti Te'o wait 20 days after hearing the news to contact officials at Notre Dame about the events?  Why did Te'o state in an intereview on December 8th, after learning of the hoax,  that he spent a lot of time working with relay for life prior the the Heisman trophy ceremony, because he was so impacted by cancer in the previous year.  He stated  "I really got hit with cancer.  I don't like cancer at all.  I lost most of my grandparents and girlfriend to cancer." This statement was clearly made after learning about the scam, yet he stuck to the story.  

 

This may simply be the fact that a 22 year old was extremely embarrassed about being the victim of such an scam, and he was not ready to answer the never ending list of questions he will no doubt be asked over the weeks to come. There are rumors all over the web that he used the story to help bolster his Heisman Trophy chances, and the story was nothing more than a publicity stunt from the very beginning.  Only time will tell, and until then, rumors and speculation will continue to abound.  Fortunately, the Heismann Trophy Committee will not have to deal with another winner having to turn in their trophy.

 

 

Citizens in Phoenix Should Check HVAC Units in Preparation for a Hot Year

0

(Newswire.net – January 17, 2013) -- Phoenix, AZ -- The hospital visits due to heat illnesses amount to almost eight hundred every year for over the past ten years. These visits lead to some deaths every year and are expected to do so this year if precautions are not taken. With some of the driest weather in the last twenty five years, citizens of Arizona are asked to drink lots of water and be on the lookout for any symptoms of heat-related illnesses. Global warming has made the last few years some of the hottest ever recorded and it does not look like it will slow down any time soon. One of the few respites from the unrelenting desert sun is the inside of a house with air conditioning. Everyone should ensure that their HVAC unit is in good enough condition to carry them through the summer.

It is particularly important for someone to service an HVAC unit if it is over five years old and has not been serviced for around a year. People all over Phoenix have trouble with failing AC units when summer is hottest.

Heat is not just unpleasant – it can be lethal. It is important that everyone uses their common sense and does not stay out in the heat for too long. If people do not have a functioning air conditioning unit, they will find that you are in trouble when it comes to keeping the heat at bay. It is important to get a unit repaired straight away or at least to take all the preventative measures that can stop an air conditioning unit from failing in the first place. Everyone should have their AC units serviced at least once a year after its fifth year and change the filter around once a month.

If you think that your AC unit might be on the way out, it is probably time to let someone take a look at it before the start of the summer. We can help you find the right person to ensure that your family is kept safe and sound all through the hot season of this year.
