			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">S</span>caffoldings are extensively used at construction sites. Whether a building has to be constructed or repaired, a scaffolding is mandatory. Also, big structures need them during construction. These devices are usually pipes and tubes made out of metal. In some countries, bamboo is also used as scaffolding.</p>
<p>Scaffolding is a structure that is made on a temporary basis to lend support to people and buildings during construction. OSHA 30 hour Construction training teaches you exactly why scaffolding is important. Cheap scaffoldings would be light on your pocket but you end up compromising your safety. The basic materials required in scaffoldings are aluminum tubes, wooden boards and couplers. Ladders and ropes can also be added into this basic structure for extra protection. Since they are not strong, independent structures, they should be securely tied to the building that they are being used for. Scaffolding is vital for any job that requires something big to be constructed.</p>
<p>A good foundation for these scaffoldings is required because it takes more than base plates to carry the load uniformly in a secure manner. Metal piles set in concrete can work well for a heavy duty scaffolding. For a light scaffolding a softer surface does good.</p>
<p>All this, and more only with OSHA 30 hour training courses! The duration of these courses is six months and you get to learn all that you need to know about the importance of scaffolding. Moreover, after each module, a test or a quiz is designed. It is mandatory to give these quizzes because then you can actually know how much you have understood and retained. The minimum passing percentage required is 70. And only upon clearing one module, you can go on to the next. This practice will also help you realize whether you have understood the previous material well.</p>
<p>So, hurry and join us today! Remember, your safety is vital and you alone are responsible for it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">G</span>REENFIELD, MA &#8211; Copperhill Media announces its newest release, &#8220;The Ayurvedic Healer,&#8221; a novel by Indian author Joy J. Kaimaparamban.</p>
<p>Set in the intriguing atmosphere of India in the early 20th century, full of mysticism, love, compassion, and political drama, The Ayurvedic Healer tells the story of Madhavan Namboodiri, a physician practicing an ancient medical science, and his enduring love for Rosalie. By healing the underprivileged, regardless of their status, touching the untouchables, he follows his beliefs and disobeys the rules of his society. His life story is set in the background of India’s struggle for freedom, the communist revolt in the Southern State of Kerala, social advancement, and the emergence of new societies. The Ayurvedic Healer sweeps the reader into an exotic place and time, rendering an intimate experience through sharing Madhavan Namboodiri’s life and love.</p>
<p>Joy J. Kaimaparamban has written 18 novels in his native Malayalam language, four of them are children’s literature. His first novel in Malayalam received the Tagore award, named after Rabindranath Tagore, a famous poet, novelist, musician, playwright, and Nobel Prize winner.</p>
<p>Joy J. Kaimaparamban was born in October 1939 to a middle class family in the Southern state of Kerala in India. After finishing his education he became a schoolmaster and worked in several Kerala government schools teaching English. He retired in 1995. Currently he lives in Vayalar, a beautiful village in the Alappuzha (Alleppey) district with his wife and two children.</p>
<p>His first novel written in English, The Azure of Solicitude, was published in 2009. His second novel, The Ayurvedic Healer, was published by Copperhill Media in July of 2010.</p>
<p>Joy J. Kaimaparamban is not only a passionate storyteller. He envisions people and events, past or present, in his native India as material for unwritten works. These visions and the ability to transform them into fascinating stories is a trademark of his novels.</p>
<p>The Ayurvedic Healer is available though all major online stores, including Amazon.Com and Barnes &#038; Noble, and through all good bookstores.</p>
<p>For more information see the publisher&#8217;s website at http://www.copperhillmedia.com, or the author&#8217;s website at http://www.kaimaparamban.com/ .</p>

<p>New Orleans, LA, September 30, 2010 &#8212; On October 5th, 2010 rock guitarist Dean Shoultz is set to release his second solo album Suite Emotions on his new label Taylor-Jordan Entertainment.  In addition Dean will deliver 5 Tracks from his new album Free of Charge just by joining his mailing list at www.deanshoultz.com </p>
<p>“Dean Shoultz is a rock guitarist, who can tear up the fret board &#8211; yet his musical compositions transcend a single instrument or style.  To understand Dean’s music you must take a generous dose of solid instrumental rock, mix in a component of jazz, add a bit of new age, a spot of ambient and a touch of shredding. His music is compelling, accessible and emotional. From the opening track “Cradle of Abel” to the closing track “Night Noises”, you will feel like you’re in a movie soundtrack,” says Producer Pershing Wells.</p>
<p>In order for Dean to achieve the feel he envisioned on this album, he enlisted the talents of Drummer Ryan Hoyle, who is best known for his work with Collective Soul and Paul Rodgers Band (Free, Bad Company and Queen). Ryan played and recorded all 10 drum tracks from his world-class Cave Studio in Los Angeles, CA. “He brings a sense of power as well as the beauty and the beast in his performance and musical collaboration on this album” says Dean. ”I am very excited to have him as a part of this project.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">F</span>ormerly Called Washington Square, Imperial Admits Charging Customers 18-20% Interest Rates Per Year</p>
<p>Boynton Beach, FL, October 02, 2010 &#8212; In a recent government filing, Imperial Funding admitted that interest rates charged to its customers average 17% per year, well above the industry averages. These rates put Imperial Funding – formerly marketed as &#8220;Washington Square Structured Settlements&#8221; – charging at the high end of the structured settlement factoring industry. Imperial&#8217;s August 12, 2010 filing was made with the federal government.</p>
<p>Upon questioning, Deborah Benaim, a twenty-year industry veteran and current Senior Vice President for Imperial, asserted that Imperial&#8217;s interest rates are even higher than reported, &#8220;averaging 18-20% per year&#8221;. This places Imperial among the most costly of factoring companies in the industry, offering its customers the least value. Industry speculation is that the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will have a dramatic, adverse impact on this industry.</p>
<p>According to a knowledgeable industry participant, these high discount rates cannot continue. As both sellers and courts become more aware of the financial abuse at the hands of certain factoring companies, they will either go out of business or will be forced to drastically reduce their rates. &#8220;Smart customers shop rates. Many judges question customers to ensure that they are getting a fair deal by requiring evidence of competitive shopping,&#8221; commented Stewart Feldman, an attorney long active in the industry throughout the U.S. Feldman cited RSL Funding and Henderson Receivables as offering among the best rates in the industry, with Peachtree and Imperial offering among the least value. &#8220;It&#8217;s not a surprise that the Imperial staff came from Peachtree. They know how to hammer customers,&#8221; commented Feldman.</p>
<p>When questioned in a pending legal proceeding as to how Imperial can offer such little value to its customers, Imperial&#8217;s Senior Vice President, Benaim, explained that Imperial spends upwards of $5,000,000.00 in marketing costs a year, including almost $4,000,000.00 on television advertising. According to an industry source, it is well known that customers that respond to television ads tend not to competitively shop, resulting in these customers receiving among the lowest prices paid. According to Benaim and the government filing, each customer, on average, bears $14,000.00 in marketing costs. One industry analyst figures that a customer not bearing this cost would receive on the average a full one-third more money up-front.</p>
<p>Imperial&#8217;s conduct has not gone unnoticed. In a recent court decision, the New York Supreme Court wrote that Imperial&#8217;s interest rates were &#8220;neither fair nor reasonable taking into account the actual amount [the customer] would be receiving. [The customer] would be receiving less than 1/3rd of the discounted present value . . . after legal fees and administrative fees&#8221;.</p>
<p>Things may be changing. In recent years, RSL Funding and Henderson Receivables have offered customers a better alternative. RSL informs customers that are the victim of particularly egregious charges from Imperial that there is an alternative and makes competitive bids for the purchase of their future payments. &#8220;We&#8217;ve offered customers as much of $50,000.00 more than competitors for the same future payments,&#8221; commented James Kelly, an RSL Funding&#8217;s Senior Account Executive. RSL&#8217;s Senior Account Executive, Derek Kopacz expressed, &#8220;When my customer received our offer of $35,000.00 more than Peachtree for the same future payments, he was ecstatic. When he received our check a few weeks later, I became his best friend. He couldn&#8217;t believe how badly he was being taken advantage of by Peachtree Settlement Funding.&#8221; Typically, RSL acquires payments free of fees and costs imposed on customers.</p>
<p>Attorneys for Peachtree and Imperial were asked for comments and corrections but offered no reply.</p>
<p>For further information, contact the Structured Settlement Institute (SSI), a not-for-profit organization established to educate sellers of structured settlements regarding fair and equitable practices among providers of structured settlement transfers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">S</span>ymbolic Collection announced today Singer has been named Botanical Artist in Residence during 2010 at the Huntington Botanical Garden in Pasadena and will be recognized during a reception on October 18. In addition to this honor, Dr. Singer has created a set of images exclusively for the Huntington known as the Huntington 100 or the H100. Prints from that series will be available exclusively by Symbolic Collection.</p>
<p>San Diego, CA, October 02, 2010 &#8212; Symbolic Collection announced today Singer has been named Botanical Artist in Residence during 2010 at the Huntington Botanical Garden in Pasadena and will be recognized during a reception on October 18. In addition to this honor, Dr. Singer has created a set of images exclusively for the Huntington known as the Huntington 100 or the H100. Prints from that series will be available exclusively by Symbolic Collection.</p>
<p>A truly eccentric artist, Singer has an eye for capturing nature with his Hasselblad digital camera to produce images that look like the product of old master painters of the 1600s. Singer is recipient of the Linnaeus silver medal and has been recognized for marrying art and science. He became the first photographer in history and fourth American to earn this award in its 104 year history. Singer is the recipient of a Hasselblad Foundation International Award in Photography, the photographer&#8217;s equivalent of the Nobel Prize.</p>
<p>Known for his exquisite large-scale prints in Botanica Magnifica, a five-volume set of books that feature single blooms of 250 of the world’s rarest plants created and presented only for the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p>“Just as the finest classical painter attempted to make his brush stroke invisible, I attempt to capture these botanical specimens with a clarity and humility becoming an instrument serving a higher force,” said Singer. “Many of the most unusual species seen in Botanica Magnifica seem to be alien life forms but really are true treasures of our home planet.”</p>
<p>In September 2009, Singer joined with Dr. Kress and Hachadourian to create a collaborative book called Botanica Magnifica: Portraits of the World’s Most Extraordinary Flowers and Plants (Abbeville Press, September 2009). The book features photographs by Singer and text by Dr. Kress and Hachadourian. Please click here to see to an interview from CBS National News: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4937453n</p>
<p>A private, nonprofit institution, The Huntington was founded in 1919 by Henry E. Huntington, an exceptional businessman who built a financial empire that included railroad companies, utilities, and real estate holdings in Southern California.<br />
Huntington was also a man of vision – with a special interest in books, art, and gardens. During his lifetime, he amassed the core of one of the finest research libraries in the world, established a splendid art collection, and created an array of botanical gardens with plants from a geographic range spanning the globe.</p>
<p>These three distinct facets of The Huntington are linked by a devotion to research, education, and beauty. For more information, please visit www.huntington.org The Huntington is located at 1151 Oxford Road, San Marino, CA 91108, near Pasadena, California.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">G</span>olden Networking&#8217;s 2nd China Leaders Forum, &#8220;Is the Chinese Dragon Poised for Global Dominance or Economic Implosion?&#8221; (ChinaLeadersForum.com), October 6th, New York. China Leaders Forum 2009 DVD Video Package Now Available Online</p>
<p>New York, NY, October 02, 2010 &#8212; David Rubenstein, the Carlyle Group&#8217;s co-founder, says the U.S. threatens to fall behind China, thanks to our growing deficit and government debt. Some of our experts will agree to disagree with Mr. Rubenstein at Golden Networking&#8217;s 2nd China Leaders Forum, &#8220;Is the Chinese Dragon Poised for Global Dominance or Economic Implosion?&#8221; (http://www.ChinaLeadersForum.com), October 6th, New York City, which includes panels on</p>
<p>As reported by Fortune.com&#8217;s Nin-Hai Tseng, &#8220;Rubenstein says the U.S. faces the harsh possibility of losing some of its competitive edge amid the rapid rise of emerging economics – in particular, China. The U.S. overwhelmingly dominates the private equity and venture capital industries worldwide, the prominent investor notes. China and other emerging economies have become eager players and companies such as private equity firm Carlyle have increasingly been spending more time in these regions. To date, Carlyle has invested $3 billion in China, he says. But several pressing factors are threatening America&#8217;s competitive edge. Rubenstein lists huge deficits and government debt, high unemployment, and widening income disparities. &#8216;We have to recognize as Americans that we&#8217;re not going to be as dominant a force in the global economy as we have been.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>Handel Jones, author of &#8220;Chinamerica: Why the Future of America is China?&#8221; and panelist at Golden Networking&#8217;s 2nd China Leaders Forum, has a slightly more optimistic approach. &#8220;The old Yankee culture of thrift and hard work needs to be reborn. That means reversing the entitlement mentality in the United States. Oblivious consumption must be reversed, so that the people in the United States produce more than they consume. The United States needs to focus on providing the foundations to help the children of the next several generations achieve wealth. A spirit of sacrifice for the next generation, commonly found in China, needs to be established in the United States. There is still time for the United States to make the required changes, but the time window is getting shorter. Without the appropriate changes, the employment base in the industrial segments of the United States will continue to decline, and wealth of the population will also decline rapidly.&#8221;</p>

<p>Washington, DC, October 05, 2010 &#8212; Award-winning regional magazine for women, &#8220;I AM Modern,&#8221; along with Coca Cola North America, sponsored the successful attempt to establish the Guinness World Record™ for the Longest Shish Kebab on October 3rd, 2010. The attempt took place during the 8th annual Turkish Festival in downtown D.C. drawing more than 20,000 spectators. By mid day, Murat Aksu and his team’s cooked shish kebab was measured by State of Virginia certified surveyors from Bowman Consulting. The surveying team led by Charles Powell measured the skewered kebab meat at 18 feet and 7 5/8 inches or 5.68 meters.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am grateful to all of our sponsors, my team of volunteers and Bowman Consulting for making this attempt a success” said Murat Aksu. “I dedicate this record to my 9 year old son Selim Aksu without whom I would have never thought about working on such an endeavor.”</p>
<p>Murat Aksu who successfully attempted to establish the record is a private citizen residing in the Metro DC area with his family and two children. He is a global executive for one of the world’s largest consulting companies and in his spare time, Mr. Aksu also writes restaurant reviews for a local lifestyle magazine and he is a strong supporter of the local food movement</p>
<p>“Our goal with our sponsorship was to draw attention to diverse cultures that co-exist in the Metro DC area” said Hulya Aksu, publisher of I Am Modern Magazine. “The hi-light of the event for us was to hear the cheers and applauses of the 1000s of spectators as the shish kebab was successfully cooked.”</p>
<p>Admission to the Guinness World Record™ and the Turkish festival was free. The volunteer team of Longest Shish Kebab included Selim Aksu, Jada Aksu, Hasan Tahsin Vonal, Tunay Vonal, James Concannon, Nalan Concannon, Yasemin Atalay, Michael Vonal, Hakan Vonal, Talia Vonal, Ali Vonal, Defne Guney Vonal, Arthur Guney and Chris Boek.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="first"><span class="drop-cap">M</span>ansfield TX &#8211; October 6, 2010 ISC, Information Support Concepts, Inc. has introduced 20A and 30A Geist RacSense 19&#8243; Rackmount Powerstrips, power distribution units, with remote control of individual on-off outlet control and real time alarming.</p>
<p>According to Kevin Hunt, VP Sales &#038; Marketing, &#8220;One of the most important steps a network manager can take to lower their power cost is to shut down ghost servers that are consuming energy but not performing useful work. &#8220;The ability to remotely manage power via rackmount powerstrips can also result in significant labor cost as well.&#8221;</p>
<p>The RCU rackmount powerstrip also address several other challenges of today&#8217;s datacenters such as the ability to power up or down sequentially, real time information on circuit level power, environmental sensors and security interfaces. For applications that require more than a rackmount powerstrip, vertical powerstrips are available.</p>
