Imperial Properties Unveils New Logo, Brand Identity

Winnipeg Company continues evolution into a full-service real estate management firm.

Winnipeg, MB (April 24, 2013) -- Imperial Properties, already a leader in the Winnipeg condominium property management market, has launched its new brand identity to reflect its evolution into a full-service real estate management company.

The firm, which recently broke ground on its first commercial development project, has expanded significantly over the past several years. Starting as a niche market leader in the condominium property management space, Imperial Properties' services now include condo rental management and commercial project leasing, in addition to commercial property management.

Now, the company has unveiled its new logo and brand identity, which better represent the wide range of services and solutions its team offers to property owners and developers.

"We are very pleased to announce our new brand, which truly showcases the quality, dedication and transparency we bring to both condominium and commercial property management," said Adrian Schulz of Imperial Properties. "Over the past few years, our company has experienced a tremendous level of growth, and we wanted to communicate this upward trend to our current and future clients. This new brand identity and logo definitely help make that happen."

The new brand symbolizes how Imperial Properties sets new standards when it comes to open communication and transparent operations. The company also uses the latest technology and methods for an efficient and straightforward process, making it easy for its clients to work with a reliable property management provider. Imperial Properties' new logo and brand markers use a minimal amount of color to express this clear-cut nature.

"If there's one thing we've heard time and again from our clients, it's that they like the fact that they can depend on us for property management services and that there are no hidden fees or cut corners," said Schulz. "We take great pride in the quality of our services and the dedication of our staff, which is why we have been blessed to expand so rapidly."

257 Osborne Street, Imperial Properties' first commercial development, is located at Confusion Corner in Winnipeg. The landmark property will feature large windows, an open floor plan and modern mechanical systems. The project is slated for completion in 2014, and will be a sign of more commercial efforts to come from the growing property management firm.

Imperial Properties is registered with Manitoba Securities and is a member of the Professional Property Managers Association, Canadian Condominium Institute, Manitoba Real Estate Association, Real Estate Institute of Canada and FIABCI-The International Real Estate Federation.

URALCHEM increased Funding for Environmental Programs in 2012 and Improved its Environmental Performance

"URALCHEM attaches great importance to the preservation of the environment and pursues a deliberate and transparent environmental policy in the regions where it operates. One of the most important results of our work has been the fact that in 2012 all our enterprises have kept well within the limits for permissible concentrations of pollutants set by the government regulators." commented by Dmitry Konyaev, CEO of URALCHEM.

Moscow, Russia (April 24, 2013) -- In 2012, the URALCHEM group increased funding for environmental programs to 465.6 million roubles. This represents an increase of more than 28% compared with 2011. Successful projects included new modern processing facilities and treatment systems, industrial waste recycling and reclamation of previously polluted sites.

The Azot branch of URALCHEM in Berezniki in 2012 implemented an environmental programme costing a total of more than 44 million roubles. During the year, factory emissions were reduced by 3%, concentration of monoethanolamine pollutants in waste water was reduced by 37% and suspended substances pollutants by 11%, oxides of nitrogen emissions were reduced by 10% and carbon monoxide emissions decreased by 9%.

MFP Kirovo-Chepetsk Chemical Works in Kirovo-Chepetsk in 2012 spent 259 million roubles on environmental measures. During the year, emissions decreased to 52.5% of the limits set by the regulators, compared with 57.8% in 2011. New technical equipment was commissioned and gas cleaning systems were modernized. One of the highlights was the completion of work to eliminate the liquid phase at the 6th section of the chalk tailings storage facility. This work is part of a large, multi-year reclamation project being carried out on the facility.

Minudobrenia in Perm in 2012 spent more than 70 million roubles on environmental activities. Because of the specific type of production at the facility, 90% of costs are related to the improvement of water management through technology improvement projects. These projects reduce water consumption by eliminating leaks in water supply and sewage networks. This is particularly important in light of the fact that the enterprise does not discharge waste water to the surface waters.

URALCHEM's enterprise in Voskresensk in 2012 spent 92 million roubles on environmental projects. Among the main activities were the modernization of equipment and the improvement of technological processes in the major manufacturing plants, as well as in the shops for the neutralization and treatment of industrial waste water.

Dmitry Konyaev, CEO of URALCHEM commented:
"URALCHEM attaches great importance to the preservation of the environment and pursues a deliberate and transparent environmental policy in the regions where it operates. One of the most important results of our work has been the fact that in 2012 all our enterprises have kept well within the limits for permissible concentrations of pollutants set by the government regulators."

T5 Data Centers Scheduled to Open Advanced, Greener Data Center Campus in Colorado Springs

Scheduled for Completion in 2014, T5@Colorado Data Center Strategically Located to Lower Power Consumption and Take Advantage of Colorado's Digital Economy.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (April 23, 2013) -- T5 Data Centers, innovators in providing state-of-the-art, customizable and highly reliable computing support environments for any enterprise, has started construction on T5@Colorado, its sixth data center complex, in Colorado Springs. The new $800 million data center campus will be situated on 64 acres and promises to offer businesses high reliability at lower operating costs while boosting job creation in the area. Completion of the first phase of the project is expected by Q1 2014.

T5@Colorado is a purpose-built data center park designed to meet the immediate Information Technology needs of modern business with the flexibility to grow for the future. The data center campus promises 100 MW of available power with sustainable, eco-friendly design capabilities and offers power rates of $0.0444 per kilowatt-hour with the potential to utilize free cooling over 97 percent of the year. It will be ideal for either single-tenant enterprise users or wholesale colocation with Tier II, III, or IV capability and unlimited design flexibility to service requirements as diverse as cloud, big data or high performance computing.

T5 continues to develop state-of-the-art data centers in strategic locations to deliver maximum capacity, security and service with minimal operating overhead. The new Colorado Springs campus will be able to take advantage of the high plains climate by using the cooler, drier external air to reduce air conditioning and operating costs. The location also is strategically placed close to the Denver Technology Center, a technology and telecommunications hub, and will serve as a central data relay center to lower latency for business-critical enterprise applications from coast to coast.

T5 executives anticipate that the new data center campus will create 400 - 600 new high-paying jobs in the area. Industry research indicates that for every job directly created by the data center, there are five jobs created indirectly.

"Colorado Springs is the ideal location for the next phase of our expansion," said Peter Marin, President and CEO of T5 Data Centers. "This is a vibrant, growing area with a strong and supportive business climate, and the proximity to Denver, as well as local colleges and military installations, gives us access to terrific talent and local resources. We want this new data center campus to be groundbreaking as an eco-friendly green facility, offering our customers the best possible enterprise infrastructure and support services at competitive rates."

Cloud computing and data processing continue to be growth markets. A report by Biggins Lacy Shapiro & Co. predicts that new construction for large enterprise data centers will increase from $6 billion in 2012 to $12 billion by 2015. According to International Data Corporation, spending on cloud computing services was expected to grow from $16.2 million in 2008 to $42 million by the end of 2012, making the IT industry and data processing the fastest growing industry in the United States.

The technique of Light Grids: In the group-work we are working together as a collective and it is a collective of programs and fears. The larger the groups the more we can work on clearing. Each person will bring a list of their priorities to the table, which they would like to work on.

Because we all have similar issues, we can help and support each other.

The group work is like opening doors and behind these doors are your fears and programs. And it's your free will and responsibility - do you want to go into these rooms and start cleaning these programs. These Meditations are for anyone wanting to work through issues that may be holding them back from creating the life of their dreams.

Youth Production Company in Rhinebeck New York Gearing Up For "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown"

INSPIRED IN PART BY FAMILY ENCOUNTER WITH STEVEN SPIELBERG, NEXTQUEST PRODUCTIONS LAUNCHES THEATER COMPANY WITH TONY-AWARD WINNING VERSION OF "YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN".

Poughkeepsie, New York (April 20, 2013) -- When Matt Hagerty's grandfather had the chance to meet and dialogue with Steven Spielberg's father years ago, he had no idea that the encounter could potentially define his own grandson's career.

"My grandfather had the opportunity to hear first-hand about Mr. Spielberg's investment into his son's dream, and the story of that encounter ended up inspiring my dad to support my launch of NextQuest", shared seventeen-year-old Matt Hagerty of Rhinebeck, who, along with three other school-age trustees, founded NextQuest Productions and is now serving as President (along with his role as Snoopy). "The Hudson Valley is a theatrical hotbed of sorts, and we are ecstatic to be joining the scene. Our prices for the pilot production, 'You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown', set for May 24, 25, and 26 at Cunneen-Hackett, are the lowest around. We believe that seeing a professional-quality show should be an experience that everyone should be able to access at an affordable rate".

Nicole Tarcza, Director and Choreographer, Co-founder and Trustee states, "one would be hard-pressed to find anyone who does not know of Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang. We wanted to reach families and appeal to all ages. The musical touches on a broad range of emotions, from day-to-day frustrations to genuine feelings of happiness in life".

The team of youth who have organized the production and purchased the rights to the play made a very deliberate philosophical choice when it came to venue. "The main draw of Cunneen-Hackett is its charm. The intimate setting of this historic space is ideal for this show. Charlie Brown is about simplicity; it's a perfect match, a venue where we can bring Charlie and his friends to life", said Tarcza.

"You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown" showtime and ticket information is as follows:
Friday, May 24th; 7:30pm; Saturday, May 25th, 2pm and 7:30pm; and Sunday, May 26th, 3pm at Cunneen-Hackett Arts Center, 12 Vassar Street, Poughkeepsie, New York. Email tickets@nextquestproductions.org or visit nextquestproductions.org. Ticket prices are $8 for adults; $5 for children 12 and under. The production will be directed by Nicole Tarcza and feature Matt Harshberger as Charlie Brown, Niki Metcalf as Sally Brown,Thomas Netter as Linus Van Pelt, Abbey Ressa as Lucy Van Pelt, Thomas Hricisak as Schroeder, and Matt Hagerty as Snoopy.

Gold Diggers Invited to Come Out of the Closet

The Society of Single Professionals, the world's largest non-profit singles organization, invites Gold Diggers (aka Sugar Babies) to come out of the closet of the upcoming events.

San Rafael, CA, April 18, 2013 -- Contact: Tom Andrews, 415/507-9962

"Now that it is fashionable to be gay," says Rich Gosse, spokesman for SugarDaddyForMe.com, "it's time for Gold Diggers to come out of the closet. For thousands of years most women have considered financial security to be the most important quality they seek in a potential mate. This is true in virtually all countries and all cultures around the world. Unfortunately, it's not socially acceptable to admit to being a Gold Digger. We aim to change this.

"There are two types of Gold Diggers," says Mr. Gosse. Predatory Gold Diggers are women who exploit prosperous men. Their only interest in them is their money. Predatory Gold Diggers only pretend to love wealthy men. They give the second type a bad name. Loving Gold Diggers are women who value financial security as a top priority in selecting a mate, but also are sincerely attracted to men for their personal qualities."

The Society of Single Professionals, the world's largest non-profit singles organization, invites Gold Diggers (aka Sugar Babies) to come out of the closet at the following events:

- Sugar Daddy Extravaganza, Thursday, April 25, Copacabana, New York City
- San Francisco's First Gold Digger Party, Saturday, May 11, Carbon Lounge
- World's First Gold Digger Cruise, November 14-18

Rich Gosse, Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, is America's foremost authority on finding a romantic partner. He is the author of eight books on this topic, including You CAN Hurry Love, Singles Guide to America, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" Oprah Winfrey). 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 to discuss the Gold Digger Phenomenon by calling 415/479-3800.

ALIPAC Plans To Defeat Illegal Immigration Amnesty Bill Again

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is planning to defeat the 844 page immigration reform Amnesty bill (S.744) that was filed by the "Gang of Eight" in the US Senate today.

Raleigh, NC, USA (April 17, 2013) -- Contact: ALIPAC (866) 703-0864 Press@alipac.us

Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) is planning to defeat the 844 page immigration reform Amnesty bill (S.744) that was filed by the "Gang of Eight" in the US Senate today.

ALIPAC activists and strategies played key roles in defeating similar legislation in 2006, 2007, and 2010 by harnessing activism from the majority of Americans opposed to the bills.

"We believe that this bill will hurt American workers, taxpayers, students, and voters by both destroying our future abilities to control our borders and by encouraging more illegal immigration into our suffering nation!" said William Gheen.

The key to defeating this new omnibus "Immigration Reform" amnesty bill that was crafted in secret without Congressional, media, or public oversight will be slowing the bill down enough to allow the public sufficient time to discern what is actually contained in the 844 page attempt to radically alter America.

"Those supporting this legislation know that a large majority of Americans will oppose it if they find out what is truly contained in the bill and that is why they want to rush it through Congress," said William Gheen, President of ALIPAC. "Most Americans would not even have time to print this bill on their home computers much less read or understand it before the Senate hearing this Friday!"

ALIPAC is America's 3rd largest national grass roots organization fighting against illegal immigration and any form of amnesty.

Today, ALIPAC will be asking the over 100,000 Americans in their network to call Congress to ask that the immigration bill be slowed down, to share the new polling data from Pulse Opinion Research showing 80% of Republicans and 72% of all Americans prefer enforcement instead of legalization for illegal immigrants, to oppose any path to citizenship for illegals, and to encourage others to sign a new online petition against Amnesty at http://www.AgainstAmnesty.com.

ISOLUTE® Myco SPE Columns, a Dedicated Product for The Efficient Extraction of Mycotoxins from Food Matrices

Biotage has announced the launch of ISOLUTE® Myco SPE columns, a new product for the 'catch and release' clean up of mycotoxins from food matrices, prior to analysis by LC-MS/MS.

Uppsala, Sweden, April 16, 2013 -- Biotage (STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, has announced the launch of ISOLUTE® Myco SPE columns, a new product for the 'catch and release' clean up of mycotoxins from food matrices, prior to analysis by LC-MS/MS.

The ISOLUTE® Myco sorbent is a proprietary polymeric phase (patent pending) optimized for the extraction of a broad spectrum of mycotoxins from a wide range of foodstuffs; enabling chemists to utilize a single SPE product to extract all relevant mycotoxins from an individual foodstuff. Using a single, easy to use sample preparation product, along with optimized matrix specific application notes, scientists can prepare diverse samples for analysis by LC-MS/MS.

ISOLUTE® Myco SPE columns have been developed for use together with LC-MS/MS analysis, their selective clean up enables robust, reliable quantitation of mycotoxins without compromising analytical data quality. The coupling of a dedicated polymer based sorbent with LC-MS/MS analysis saves both time and money as more samples can be processed each day compared to IAC based clean up. The tabless 3 mL format of the ISOLUTE® Myco columns is suitable for a variety of processing equipment including vacuum manifolds, positive pressure manifolds and automated SPE workstations.

"ISOLUTE® Myco SPE columns are a real step forward in mycotoxin sample preparation, helping scientists to fully exploit the advantages of higher productivity and highly selective LC-MS/MS analysis through the use of a truly optimized sample preparation regime" says Dr. Claire Desbrow, Global Product Manager.

Don Jacobson Announced as Featured Artist by Art Gallery

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery (LST) is pleased to announce that fine art photographer; Don Jacobson is now the gallery's featured artist.

Jupiter, Florida, USA (April 16, 2013) -- Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery (LST) is pleased to announce that fine art photographer; Don Jacobson is now the gallery's featured artist. Don has participated in many of the gallery's past art competitions and he has placed in every art exhibition that he competed in!

The world of photography and the world of the natural wonders of the Sierra Nevada opened to Don Jacobson simultaneously. The photographs he took with his little Kodak Brownie were woefully inadequate to express the grandeur of the Range of Light. Within a week of his first backpack trip into the high country, he bought his first SLR, a Pentax Spotmatic and began to take photography classes.

Don's degree is in electrical engineering and he worked in that field for three years. Working for the defense industry became more of a contradiction with his political views initiating a search for a desperately needed a creative outlet. For the next twenty-eight years he worked as a glassblower. His work was shown in galleries across the United States, and the Corning Museum included a piece of his in their 1986 collection of 200 international glassblowers. Although glassblowing was his "day job," he continued to practice the art of photography, studying photography with Edmund Teske at UCLA for a year. The two different mediums are connected by light. The magic of glass is in its ability to transmit and reflect light while photography is the capturing of light.

Don states this about his art and photography, "I see the world differently now. The camera, which narrows the field of vision, has actually expanded my vision. When I realized I was viewing reality as if it were a series of photographs, I initially questioned that perspective. Now, I know my perception is enhanced and enriched from my pursuit of photography. An already dynamic and interesting world has become more so." Don's work can be found at http://www.donjacobsonphoto.com.

Demolition Set to Begin for New Development at 257 Osborne Street

Landmark Office Tower to transform Winnipeg's Confusion Corner.

WINNIPEG, MB (April 16, 2013) -- Demolition will begin Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at the site of the future Landmark Office Tower at Confusion Corner in Winnipeg.

The demolition, which will begin at 10 a.m. and last four to six weeks, will make way for the new construction project. Local firm Imperial Properties is the property manager and leasing agent for the development.

"We are very excited to see work begin on the Landmark Office Tower this week," said Adrian Schulz, spokesperson for Imperial Properties. "This is a great opportunity for the local community and members of the news media to attend and watch this major project commence. Over the next year, there are going to be some significant changes made to the site that will transform and enhance Confusion Corner overall."

Space at 257 Osborne St. site opened up when the previous commercial tenant, Bruni Auto, moved to a different location. The Imperial Properties team has been working on the development project for the past months, and now that warmer weather is on its way, the company is eager begin the demolition and construction process.

The Landmark Office Tower will be a first-class commercial structure featuring large windows, an open and customizable floor plan, modern mechanical systems and onsite property management. It is located at the highest traffic count intersection of Winnipeg, where traffic counts average more than 91,100 vehicles per day. It is the key connection point to the City Center, Osborne and Corydon Village.

Already leased are the main retail floor-to a national restaurant chain-and one office floor, which a business center operator will occupy. This leaves three floors and 18,120 total square feet available which are ideal for professional or medical office use.

"This will be a state-of-the-art office building, and there is still plenty of space with ground and underground parking available for business tenants to claim," Schulz said. "We do expect this space to lease up quickly, so we encourage all interested parties to inquire soon. The amenities of the new building, combined with its outstanding landmark location, are sure to give tenants some wonderful opportunities for success."

Wednesday's demolition will also provide media members with the opportunity to take "before" photos of the current structure, and then track the effort's progress in the upcoming months.

The Landmark Office Tower project is scheduled for completion by 2014. To learn more about Imperial Properties and its work, visit http://www.imperialproperties.ca/commercial.
