Demi Versus Madonna: Which Cougar Do Cubs Prefer?

Do Cubs prefer The Demi Type, who marries her Cub? Or The Madonna Type, who just wants to have fun?

San Rafael, CA - August 17, 2011 -- Contact: Tom Andrews, 415/507-9962

Which Cougar type is the most popular with Cubs? The Demi Moore Type, who wants to marry her Cub? Or The Madonna Type, who just wants to have fun? This question will be answered at a Cougar Party on Saturday, September 10, 2011, 8pm, at 111 Minna Gallery, 111 Minna Street, San Francisco CA 94105. Those who are unable to “vote” at the party are urged to do so online at http://www.cougarevents.com.

The news media stereotypes Cougars as Madonna types who are just looking for superficial relationships with younger men,” says Rich Gosse, Executive Producer of http://www.CougarEvents.com. “The cougars who come to our parties are looking for much more. They are just like most other women: they seek love, intimacy, and a long-term relationship. We hope to prove that at tonight’s party, where Cubs will choose which type of Cougar they prefer.”

Rich Gosse is America’s foremost authority on finding a romantic partner. He is the author of eight books on this topic, including The Cougar Imperative: Why MidLife Women MUST Date Younger Men. His entertaining advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, CNBC, Fox News Live, MSNBC, Oprah, Donahue, Cosmopolitan, Newsweek, Entrepreneur, Business Week, Playboy, Playgirl, The Wall Street Journal, London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, etc. Mr. Gosse is available to the news media for interviews by calling 415/479-3800. His personal website is http://www.RichGosse.com.

Adults of all ages are invited to the party. The cost is $10 at the door, which includes a fun Mixer Game, which makes it easy to meet people, plus dancing to House DJ music.

The party is sponsored by The Society of Single Professionals, the world’s largest non-profit singles organization; and by Hedonism II, the favorite resort of Cougars.

Zevrix Updates LinkOptimizer for InDesign, Adds Mac OS X Lion Support

Zevrix Solutions announces LinkOptimizer 4.5.11, a feature update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 starts by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer allows to reduce InDesign job size and speed up processing by eliminating excess image data, performing essential image adjustments and converting file formats automatically. The new version adds support for Mac OS X Lion and BMP image processing, and addresses some reliability and performance issues.

Toronto (ON), Canada - August 17, 2011 -- Zevrix Solutions today announces the release of LinkOptimizer 4.5.11, a feature update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 starts by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks allowing to significantly reduce the size of InDesign job, save processing time and reduce production costs.

The new version adds support for Mac OS X Lion and lets users optimize and convert BMP images linked to InDesign documents. Following its policy of implementing user requests at the earliest opportunity possible, this feature was implemented at a customer's request to automate their BMP-centric workflow. In addition, the new update adds processing of images in skewed frames and improves precision of the crop data calculations.

"LinkOptimizer makes me extremely happy!", says Nynke Tiekstra, the owner of design studio ColtsfootMedia in Friesland, Netherlands, "It converted 10000 images in a 1800 pages project saving us at least 40 hours work, and it proved to be 100% accurate."

LinkOptimizer works automatically with Adobe Photoshop to eliminate the excess image data of InDesign links, perform essential image adjustments and convert various image formats. For example, with just a click of a button users can:

-scale and crop images to match their dimensions in InDesign,
-change their resolution to 300 ppi,
-convert all RGB images to CMYK,
-resave all JPEG images as TIFF,
-run a Photoshop Action on each image.

At the end of processing, LinkOptimizer will reimport images to InDesign at 100% in their precise position. In addition, the software can apply sharpening filters, merge layers and delete hidden ones, and process copies of InDesign documents and images instead of original files. As a result, users can save gigabytes of disk space and countless hours of optimizing images manually, accelerate document output, reduce job turnaround and cut costs through faster processing.

Pricing and Availability:
LinkOptimizer can be purchased from Zevrix web site for US$259.95 as well as from authorized resellers. Trial is also available for download. The update is free for LinkOptimizer 4.x users and $98.78 to upgrade from previous versions. Light version is available at $179.95. LinkOptimizer is available for Mac OS X 10.4.2-10.7, a Universal Binary, and works with Adobe InDesign CS2-CS5.5.

New Study Delivers Another Strike Against BMI

Body Mass Index (BMI) is often used as an indicator of health but a new study by researchers at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada gives more evidence that this measurement may be misleading many people.

New York, NY, USA - August 17, 2011 -- Body Mass Index (BMI) is often used as an indicator of health but a new study by researchers at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada gives more evidence that this measurement may be misleading many people. They found that some ethnic groups are more likely to be adding dangerous visceral fat onto their internal organs like their liver when they gain weight, while others are adding the more visible subcutaneous fat.

You need to know your body composition and your body fat percentage for a true indicator of your health,” say Dian Griesel Ph.D. and Tom Griesel, co-authors of TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (April 2011, BSH). “The better home body composition scales will not only show your current percentage of overall body fat but also give you an idea of how much visceral fat you have. This is the information you need. Bulging bellies without much visible or obvious fat are a pretty good indicator of the presence of dangerous visceral fat. The larger your waist measurement the greater your risk and it’s the fat you can't see that will kill you.”

In TurboCharged we explain why BMI is not a good health indicator. BMI will never give you the critical information you need about your body composition to be sure your weight and health goals are on track. We suspect there are many skinny looking yet dangerously fat people walking around with a greater risk of disease and a false sense of security based on a “healthy” BMI number.

The Leading Provider of hCG for Weight Loss in Calgary is Glenmore Healthcare

Glenmore Healthcare and Wellness is the longest standing provider of safe and effective hCG for weight loss in Calgary. Since opening in December 2010, over 300 patients have lost weight utilizing the IAPAM's exclusive hCG Protocol, offered in Calgary only at Glenmore Healthcare. Worldwide, over 14,000 patients have successfully lost weight using the IAPAM's hCG Diet.

Calgary, Alberta, August 17, 2011 -- hCG has been used as a weight loss aid for over 50 years, and since being showcased on the Dr. Oz Show in February 2011, and also in Dr. Oz's interview in First for Women Magazine's June 27th, 2011 issue, it is experiencing a resurgence in popularity in the US and Canada. Patients can access this safe and effective physician-supervised weight loss program in Calgary at Glenmore Healthcare (http://www.glenmorehealthcare.com).

Glenmore Healthcare's exclusive hCG Weight Loss Program is a proven medical solution for optimal weight loss and management. Based upon the successful protocol originally developed in 1954 by Dr. Simeons, and detailed in his report, Pounds and Inches, and refined by the International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine (http://www.iapam.com) in 2010, the Glenmore Healthcare's hCG medically supervised weight loss program is built around a low calorie diet coupled with the administration of the pharmaceutical grade of the naturally occurring hormone, hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin). Glenmore Healthcare follows the IAPAM's hCG Weight Loss Protocol, which has been administered to over 14,000 patients around the world with consistent weight loss results. The IAPAM's hCG Weight Loss Program is the only endorsed hCG weight loss protocol available to physicians.

Patients participating in the Glenmore Healthcare’s hCG for Weight Loss Program are monitored by a licensed physician who specializes in hCG for weight loss. Labs and vital statistics are recorded prior to starting the program. Patients at Glenmore Healthcare have lost as much as 20 pounds in our 26 day program, and 35 pounds in our 43 day program. At the end of the program, clinic staff test a patient’s RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) with the same equipment as used on NBC's "The Biggest Loser."

The FDA states that, “HCG is a hormone extracted from the urine of pregnant women. It is approved by the FDA for the treatment of certain problems of the male reproductive system and in stimulating ovulation in women who have had difficulty becoming pregnant. No evidence has been presented, however, to substantiate claims for HCG as a weight-loss aid.” This is absolutely true if homeopathic hCG is taken, or the entire protocol is not followed. hCG taken on its own will not result in rapid, safe weight loss. It is very important that when a patient undertakes an hCG weight loss program, that they complete it under the supervision of a physician, and strictly follow the entire detailed protocol, as is done at Glenmore Healthcare.

For more information on hCG and weight loss or to book a consultation, please contact Glenmore Healthcare at 403-452-5699 or info@glenmorehealthcare.com.

Glenmore Healthcare is Calgary’s premiere provider of hCG medically supervised weight loss programs, and health and wellness services to individuals in the Calgary area.

AlphaStaff Group, Inc. one of the nation’s largest professional employer organizations (PEO), unveiled its fully-upgraded and enhanced website, www.alphastaff.com.

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. - August 16, 2011 -- AlphaStaff Group, Inc. (“AlphaStaff”), one of the nation’s largest professional employer organizations (PEO), unveiled its fully-upgraded and enhanced website. The announcement was made by John Gibson, CEO.

The new website has more tools and resources to support clients, brokers and businesses in general, such as alerts and updates on key business issues like healthcare reform and tax changes to help support the daily needs of companies and brokers.

Existing clients can find helpful links for documents, resources to navigate healthcare reform legislation and access a personal client/employee login area to manage their account details.

Gibson acknowledged the new website would also be an important marketing tool moving forward as well as a resource to further position the company as a thought leader and expert in the healthcare reform marketplace, among other areas.

Physicians Receive Botox Training from Leading Dermatologists at IAPAM's September 17-18th Symposium

The IAPAM continues to offer the industry's best clinical, hands-on, aesthetic medicine training in the most advanced botox and skin care procedures. The IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium is a weekend program, designed by physicians for physicians, and supports the addition of the top 5 minimally invasive procedures: botox, dermal fillers, lasers, microdermabrasion, chemical peels and hCG for Weight Loss to a medical practice or medspa.

Las Vegas, NV, August 16, 2011 -- Over 900 physicians and their staff have attended the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com) and hCG Training sessions (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/physician-hcg-weight-loss-training). These respected and well attended educational programs are designed for physicians eager to safely, profitably and successfully add botox, hCG medical weight loss, lasers for hair removal and skin rejuvenation, and other aesthetic modalities to their existing practices. The IAPAM's Symposium is the only program which gives physicians an opportunity to learn from two board-certified dermatologists, who are true experts in the skin and cosmetic injectables. In order to ensure doctors learn the best injection techniques, the botox training is done in a multi-million dollar medical facility, not in a hotel room. In addition, the Symposium does not allow exhibitors, giving physicians more time for education.

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jennifer Linder, who instructs at the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium adds, "in order to perform Botox treatments well, one must understand the medication and how it specifically works. Physicians must know how to appropriately dilute the product and how to safely and effectively administer it. Botox training (http://www.iapam.com/botoxtraining.html) should provide an in-depth discussion of facial anatomy and how to evaluate muscle movements to decide on product placement. One must understand the details of how Botox interacts with the muscles, the natural variations of the musculature of the face, as well as how to achieve beautiful aesthetic results by decreasing muscle contraction in a designed and organized fashion. Effective training programs, like the IAPAM's Symposium, should prepare doctors to effectively handle any adverse events both from a medical standpoint, as well as helping the patient to understand the situation. Marketing assistance is also very valuable, and good training seminars, like the IAPAM's Aesthetic Practice Start-Up Workshop (http://www.iapam.com/bootcamp.html), discuss how to market services."

For additional information and to register for the upcoming Aesthetic Medicine Symposium on September 17-18, 2011, please contact the IAPAM at 1-800-219-5108 ext 704, email info@theiapam.com or visit http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com.

Over the years Rick has been experimenting with using a variety of other materials such as colored pencil, chalks, markers, etc. in combination with watercolor and acrylic paints.

Recently, Richard stated “I enjoy using drawing and painting materials to capture the scenic beauty of our natural world. I take most pleasure in working with watercolor and acrylic to capture a mood or momentary feeling in a landscape scene. I especially enjoy the magic that happens through my brushes. My best resources are the wild animals, farms, fields, lakes, streams, hills, and forests of mountain, coastal, and northern-tier states. There the subjects for paintings are endless and never mundane.

When my artwork is finished, not only do I want to enjoy my own creation but I also hope to provide the viewers of my work an opportunity to be briefly distracted from whatever is on their minds-a momentary gift of enchantment and amusement.”

Rick earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Art Education and a Master of Arts Degree in studio art. He retired from Rosemount High School in 2008 after teaching secondary art education for 38 years.

Stepping Through by Attila Nemeti, an autobiography of a globalized immigrant released worldwide in eBook formats to 3,500 locations

Stepping Through recounts the story of a young, innocent man’s journey through nine countries to find a new life in the USA.

Moorpark, California, Monday, August 15, 2011 -- Nemeti’s adventurous story illustrates how someone in the United States is able to climb out of homelessness without language, family, friends, or money. The book spans twenty years beginning in the mid-eighties. It gives a wide view of the world and the American culture and society through an immigrant’s eyes. Stepping Through answers the question why America is the best place to live in the “free world” and the reason people immigrate there from all over our planet.

Stepping Through is more than a memoir. It is an autobiography of different cultures, societies and people. This book is not about searching for happiness, but a fight for survival,” Nemeti said. “My life began on Valentine's Day, fourteen years after World War II. I grew up in Budapest, Hungary studying Physical Education to become a swimming coach, the Art of Film to improve my visual culture and Psychology to understand instincts and intelligence. Afterward, I wanted to teach not just in a classroom of people, but to share my thoughts with all… and then Stepping Through was born.”

Stepping Through has received strong endorsements. "This book is worth the read. Attila has had a very interesting life. His journey is a testament to the phrase 'Perseverance furthers'."-- Alan Edward Bell - Feature Film Editor, Water for Elephants.

Finishing Stepping Through in one day I found the book to be a remarkable account of a brave young foreigner coming to America and the almost insurmountable problems he encountered. A powerful exhilarating autobiography."-- Sharon Jackman - De La Mare Engineering Inc. Special Effects

"Attila Nemeti’s book, Stepping Through, is an intriguing and fascinating account of his amazing personal life story. Mr. Nemeti takes the reader on an exciting journey through his life and has something for everyone - adventure, drama, philosophy, love and romance…I can't wait for the next book!" -- Yuriko M.

HIV Cure - NIH Funding Will Back More Research

Financing is one of the main obstacles toward cracking the final piece of the HIV cure puzzle-HIV reservoirs-and the backing of the NIH helps out in that regard.

Toulon, France - August 13, 2011 -- The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a division of the National Institutes of Health, has recently earmarked a $14.6 million grant to be given to research teams across the country for a common goal-make progress and find a functional cure for HIV. Sounds easy, right? Of course it doesn't, but the money makes the journey toward finding that cure much easier. Financing is one of the main obstacles toward cracking the final piece of the HIV cure puzzle-HIV reservoirs-and the backing of the NIH helps out in that regard. 15 teams across the country are putting the money to good use, finding the drugs needed to draw out and kill the HIV virus remaining in these reservoirs.

The advancement in antiretroviral drugs has created a powerful defense for people infected with HIV. Patients must take a cocktail of drugs daily, and the price tag for these drugs can run well over $1,000 a month. As good as these drugs are, they don't quite get to the root of the problem. They don't eliminate HIV; they just beat it into dormancy. The remaining HIV virus lies dormant in HIV reservoirs, just waiting to come alive when the patient ceases antiretroviral treatment for whatever reason. The goal of the current research is to tap into those HIV reservoirs somehow and bring the remaining virus out in the open so it can be killed, thereby creating a functional cure for HIV.

The current research at the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) utilizes mice implanted with human tissue to see how humans might react to HIV eradication drugs being introduced into their systems. Current HIV medication gets rid of infected cells that replicate, but the ones that don't respond to the medication currently available-the virus lying dormant in HIV reservoirs-is the target of the current research. These cells can lie dormant for years, even decades, before activating and rapidly depleting the immune system.

The grant up for renewal every five years, theoretically giving researchers the funding they need to continue research. The mice that UCLA uses in its research can give a good indication on how humans might react to such HIV eradication drugs. Other primates related to humans, such as monkeys, are often used for this endeavor, but mice are a lower-cost alternative. The testing will eventually include primates, but this will expanded further in the future.
