HawksHead Introduces a Hand-Held TPMS Reader for Semi Truck and OTR Fleets

This new battery powered device compliments the HawksHead Talon 22 wheel and Talon X-Treme 38 wheel tire pressure monitoring systems used by many Semi Truck fleets and OTR mining equipment companies.

Rosedale, BC, Canada (August 3, 2013) -- Many companies have trailers and equipment sitting in their yard prepared and ready for dispatch.

Often the tires are underinflated and may not have been checked due to the difficulty in taking pressure readings.

This can be a thing of the past with the introduction of the Yard Master hand-held TPMS reader from HawksHead Systems.

This new battery powered device compliments the HawksHead Talon 22 wheel and Talon X-Treme 38 wheel tire pressure monitoring systems used by many Semi Truck fleets and OTR mining equipment companies.

As the HawksHead Talon systems offer the ability to switch trailers, the Yard Master can be used to setup and store data for up to 4 trailers. One large feature of the Yard Master is the ability to be aimed at any tire with a Talon Sensor attached, and the Yard Master can read the Sensor ID along with the tires pressure and temperature. This ensures the trailer tire has the correct parameters before the vehicle is released into service, or before being connected to the Talon tire pressure monitoring system.

With a user friendly interface the Yard Master can save many hours of labour and ensure vehicles have the correct operating pressures thus saving money for the operator.

Author Pens Thrilling Minute-by-minute Account of Knight Capital's Terrifying Hours on August 1, 2012

Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders, and Course Director, The Speed Traders Workshop 2012, Proudly Introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a Behind-the-scenes Look at Knight Capital's 17 years of Tumultuous Existence as an Independent Company.

New York City, NY, USA (August 2, 2013) -- At 9:30 A.M. on August 1, 2012, right after the markets opened for the day, Knight Capital began issuing an unprecedented number of erroneous orders into the market, due to an error in installing new software. No rogue trader or regulatory change; operational risk was passing the bill to Knight Capital and becoming the biggest risk in the financial markets.

Knight Capital announced later a staggering loss of $440 million. What followed after this shocking announcement were several rounds of desperate conversations with a number of vulture players who had smelled opportunity and were readying themselves to pick up bargain-priced pieces. On August 6, 2012, Joyce confirmed that Knight Capital had struck a deal with Jefferies, TD Ameritrade, Blackstone, GETCO, Stephens, and Stifel Financial, staving off collapse days after the trading mishap.

Edgar Perez, the celebrated author of The Speed Traders (http://www.TheSpeedTraders.com) and global speaker on the topics of high-frequency trading (HFT) and investing, brings a thrilling minute-by-minute account of the terrifying hours following the August 1, 2012 trading debacle, with news-breaking research regarding Knight Capital's 17 years of tumultuous existence as an independent company with Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, now exclusively available at http://www.KnightmareonWallStreet.com. Knightmare on Wall Street provides a fascinating account of what it took to elevate the firm to the cusp of the retail investing revolution of the late 1990s, to struggle through booms and busts, and to bring the firm down, to end up ultimately being ignominiously bought up by a competitor.

Perez (http://www.MrEdgarPerez.com) is widely regarded as the preeminent global expert in the specialized area of high-frequency trading.

The Real Story Behind the Rise and Fall of Knight Capital Now at KnightmareonWallStreet.com

Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders, and Course Director, The Speed Traders Workshop 2012, Proudly Introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a Behind-the-scenes Look at Knight Capital's 17 years of Tumultuous Existence as an Independent Company.

New York City, NY, USA (August 2, 2013) -- Edgar Perez, the celebrated author of The Speed Traders (http://www.TheSpeedTraders.com) and global speaker on the topics of high-frequency trading (HFT) and investing, is proud to introduce his newest title, Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, exclusively available at www.KnightmareonWallStreet.com.

A thrilling minute-by-minute account of the terrifying hours following the August 1, 2012 trading debacle, with news-breaking research regarding Knight Capital's 17 years of tumultuous existence as an independent company, Knightmare on Wall Street is a behind-the-scenes look at the rise and fall of Knight Capital.

Reviews for Perez's first title, The Speed Traders were overwhelmingly positive. "The Speed Traders offers cutting-edge intelligence on the relatively concealed industry of High-Frequency Trading. The substantial foundation of HFT is laid out and combined with thorough interviews to make sense of the complicated technicalities in HFT. Perez gives the whole picture by critically defining HFT, charting its inconspicuous emanation into the securities market, breaking down the flash crash of 2010, forecasting the indisputable role that HFT will play in the financial world, and perhaps most importantly, walking the reader through 6 different evaluations with actual high frequency traders."

"The interviews were the most valuable asset in making this industry understandable. The first person narrative is key because it's easy to comprehend and relatively scarce in current literature for many reasons, two of which are that traders are reluctant to disclose strategies on generating alpha and the barriers of entry to the HFT industry are so high that there is only a limited amount of traders that actually know what they are talking about. Readers searching for break-through information on HFT have met their match because The Speed Traders is in a class of its own. Its exceptionally designed equilibrium between fleshed-out mentorship and historical HFT knowledge delivers core comprehension of a challenging topic."

Perez is widely regarded as the preeminent global expert in the specialized area of high-frequency trading. He is author of The Speed Traders, An Insider's Look at the New High-Frequency Trading Phenomenon That is Transforming the Investing World, published in English by McGraw-Hill Inc.

Heroes and Villains Populate Knightmare on Wall Street Book as Captured by Perez's Keen Insight

Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders, and Course Director, The Speed Traders Workshop 2012, Proudly Introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a Behind-the-scenes Look at Knight Capital's 17 years of Tumultuous Existence as an Independent Company.

New York City, NY, USA (August 2, 2013) -- "Ever since the Knight Capital trading disaster broke in August 1, 2012, investors and traders have been morbidly fascinated by the incident. How had so sophisticated a company managed to burn though $440 million in a bit more than half an hour? How could the firm endure the bleeding for what amounted to years in electronic trading? Some of us could imagine ourselves among the members of the management team in those tragic minutes; others found an unimaginable relief in watching the financial tragedy unfolds in front of their eyes and not inside their own firms." That's how UltraHighFrequencyTrading.com kicks off its review of Edgar Perez's latest title, Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, now exclusively available at http://www.KnightmareonWallStreet.com.

The editors at UltraHighFrequencyTrading.com praise Knightmare on Wall Street's "superlative account of the coming-of-age of high frequency trading, and the definitive chronicle of Knight Capital's impressive ascendancy and lightning toppling." They continue: "Perez takes the reader on a riveting journey while providing a record of verbatim verbal exchanges between the major players, as their personalities, decisions, ambitions and indecisions send ripples throughout the financial markets. Heroes, villains and human fallibility populate this true story as captured by the author's keen insight and imaginative presentation."

"Perez's story holds us not because of the absorbing details of the incident, but because of its human dimension. 'Knightmare on Wall Street' begins by reconstructing the events of that grim morning during which the firm begun spewing orders and scaring traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on the day of the launch of the Retail Liquidity Program. Top managers, including Steven Sadoff and Michael Tobin, failed to act decisively in the absence of their CEO. Perez clearly does not believe that they were ultimate responsible in the extraordinary failure. But in Perez's telling, they should have known better, much better."

"Perez takes the reader on a riveting ride through trading rooms where the personalities of the major players are revealed. 'Knightmare on Wall Street' is certain to become a seminal classic among the pertinent Wall Street literature, alongside such heavyweight tomes as Barbarians at the Gate, Liar's Poker, When Genius Failed and Den of Thieves. It is not merely a compelling and essential text for anyone who wishes to comprehend the climate of algorithmic trading, or anyone who wants to gain insight into the future evolution of financial markets and its discontents. This is a highly recommended read for anyone desiring the inside scoop about today's electronic and high-frequency trading."

Edgar Perez's Latest Thriller, Knightmare on Wall Street, Rise and Fall of Knight Capital, Out Now

Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders, and Course Director, The Speed Traders Workshop 2012, Proudly Introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a Behind-the-scenes Look at Knight Capital's 17 years of Tumultuous Existence as an Independent Company.

New York City, NY, USA (August 2, 2013) -- Edgar Perez, the celebrated author of The Speed Traders (http://www.TheSpeedTraders.com) and global speaker on the topics of high-frequency trading (HFT) and investing, introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a fascinating account of what it took to elevate Knight Capital (now acquired by GETCO and renamed KCG Holdings) to the cusp of the retail investing revolution of the late 1990s, to struggle through booms and busts, and to bring the firm down, to end up ultimately being ignominiously bought up by a competitor. Knightmare on Wall Street is now exclusively available at http://www.KnightmareonWallStreet.com.

The firm, founded by Kenneth Pasternak and Walter Raquet in 1995, had seen its fortunes change as U.S. regulators made a series of changes in the structure of financial markets and computers were progressively expanding their share of trading. The Flash Crash, the infamous 1,000 point drop of the DJIA on May 6, 2010 (the largest one-day point decline in history), illustrated how market structure problems could almost instantaneously cascade from one market participant to the rest.

Thomas Joyce, CEO of Knight Capital since 2002 and an unapologetic advocate of electronic trading, had been scornful of those companies that struggled to keep up with ever-changing stock markets. So it was certainly shocking that at 9:30 A.M. on August 1, 2012, right after the markets opened for the day, Knight Capital began issuing an unprecedented number of erroneous orders into the market, due to an error in installing new software. No rogue trader or regulatory change; operational risk was passing the bill to Knight Capital and becoming the biggest risk in the financial markets.

Knight Capital announced later a staggering loss of $440 million. What followed after this shocking announcement were several rounds of desperate conversations with a number of vulture players who had smelled opportunity and were readying themselves to pick up bargain-priced pieces. On August 6, 2012, Joyce confirmed that Knight Capital had struck a deal with Jefferies, TD Ameritrade, Blackstone, GETCO, Stephens, and Stifel Financial, staving off collapse days after the trading mishap.

While Knight Capital was back in the game, its limping recovery quickly prompted hungry competitors to bid for the entire company. On December 19, 2012, the board decided to accept an acquisition proposal from GETCO rather than Virtu Financial. For GETCO, acquiring Knight Capital represented a gigantic fast forward step. For Knight Capital, it was the end of its wild ride as an independent entity, told from beginning to end by Knightmare on Wall Street.

The Secret to Landing Mr. Right is Out - Get in the Game!

New board game is a win for women giving them confidence as they pursue "The One".

New York, USA (July 31, 2013) -- From Sex in the City to Fifty Shades of Grey, the latest craze for single women is Landing Mr. Right TM, a hilarious social board game about dating that's entertaining women of all ages at private homes, chic boutiques and hot-spots from Miami to Manhattan.

"Landing Mr. Right parties are the newest trend for an unforgettable girls' night," says Alys Daly, who created the game along with girlfriend Victoria Brewer. The two pondered writing a how-to book about dating, but decided what women need is a platform to come together and talk about their dating experiences - the good, the bad and the comical. The game is designed to inspire single gals and give them the confidence that as long as they stay in the game, they will land their Mr. Right.

Landing Mr. Right revolves around dating six types of men: Blue Blood, CEO, Regular Guy, Triathlete, Rock Star and Techno-Geek. The game is easy to follow. A player selects a Date card that takes her to one of ten exciting destinations - from Paris to Vegas. However, whether that date puts you closer to or further away from Landing Mr. Right (a space on the board you must land on to win) is, as they say, all in the cards.

The Your Story cards tackle everything from online dating to meeting his family. Questions, such as "They're making a Broadway Show about your sex life. Is it a comedy, a romance or a one-woman show?" get you thinking, laughing and discovering new things about yourself, your girlfriends and the men you date.

Brewer adds, "Landing Mr. Right gives you the opportunity to date outside your comfort zone and explore relationships with different types of men. For instance, if you've always gone for romantic, yet undependable Rock Stars, why not roll the die with a loyal and predictable Regular Guy, says Brewer.

Fans of the game agree. Yania Olabarrieta, a 40-something single advertising executive who hosted a Landing Mr. Right party at her condo in Miami Beach says, "Landing Mr. Right opened my eyes and made me see that I tend to date the same type of guy, yet he's not for me. More than a game, Landing Mr. Right is Therapy in a Box!"

Alys & Victoria have just launched a campaign on Kickstarter, a funding platform for creative projects. Supporters will be the first to get the signed game and other Landing Mr. Right merchandise. They plan to have the game produced in mass quantity and available on http://www.landingmrright.com in time for the holiday season. For more information, contact Alys & Victoria at alys@landingmrright.com; call 561-339-5929 or 305-815-0312 or visit their blog at http://www.landingmrright.com and share your hilarious dating stories.

BELIZE CITY, Belize (July 29, 2013) -- Actyl, a world leader in recruiting for the Canadian labor market, will hold its first open house in Belize City on Tuesday, July 30.

"We are very pleased to hold these daily open houses and welcome individuals who may be interested in the wide range of opportunities available in Canada," said Dr. Linda West, President of Actyl. "Canada-particularly western Canada-is experiencing unprecedented economic growth, and as a result there is a big gap in the skilled labor market. This presents unique opportunities for people in Belize to find gainful employment, while perhaps embarking on a personal adventure all their own."

This week, Actyl is recruiting for a number of jobs in Canada, including 100 positions at McDonald's, 15 industrial painters, 15 industrial electricians, eight stockers at Canadian Tire, six journeyman automotive body professionals, two heavy-duty mechanics and two sheet metal technicians.

To be eligible for Canadian jobs, candidates must be between the ages of 19 and 35, speak English, have completed high school and be willing and able to travel. Actyl has experienced a great deal of success in recruiting workers from throughout Belize over the past year, with many individuals finding high-paying employment with countless opportunities for personal and professional growth.

"We have many jobs in Canada available right now, and demand is great for skilled, ambitious and hard-working people from Belize to relocate as soon as possible," said West. "These opportunities are both permanent and temporary, so whether you're looking to make some money while experiencing another part of the world for a few months or would like a more long-term venture, there are openings available for you."

Actyl's office is located at 154 Freetown Road in Belize City. Visitors are encouraged to look for the Canadian flags outside of the building. To learn more about Actyl and the jobs available through the firm, go to http://www.actyl.com/belize.

PB Millionaire's Baby Seal Rescue Makes A Big Splash

Video Goes Viral On YouTube.

San Diego, CA, USA (July 28, 2013) -- A baby seal was rescued at Windansea Beach in La Jolla and the video is all the talk on YouTube and Facebook. The pup seal waddled its way onto the beach right in the middle of a video/photo shoot for a swimsuit calendar. "It appeared to be wounded" said Jim Lawlor, executive producer of the PB Reality Show, whose camera team was there filming a bikini shoot for an episode of the show and happened to capture it all on camera.

Lawlor, who is nicknamed the "PB Millionaire," called Sea World who sent a rescue team that netted the seal and brought it back to their location for medical treatment.

"Great show, Jim is really cool and does a lot of good for SD and injured seals!" - one Youtube viewer wrote.

Others wrote:

"The Humanitarian 'stuff you do is amazing! That was my favorite part with the seal and the Homeless"

"Oh I loved the part where they saved the seal.. so touching.. but the whole episode was amazing, i am going to watch all of the episodes"

The rescue can be seen in the later part of the Episode 2 video here: http://youtu.be/AT_GYV3yfCM

When Lawlor first arrived here to San Diego 22 years ago, he had to sleep in his car as he couldn't afford his rent. He painted houses as a means to get by and, ironically, invented a pair of goggles for spray painting that made him a millionaire. (See Lawlor's Bio: http://www.pbmillionairebio.com)

From living in his car to living in a castle here in Pacific Beach, Lawlor calls it "Living the California Dream" - which is the theme of the show. The show has a huge following on Facebook with 85,000 fans and counting (Facebook: "The PB Reality Show"). Lawlor and his entourage are constantly recognized wherever they go around San Diego sometimes making it difficult to film. In the past two years various fan sites have popped up touting loyalty to the PB Reality Show: http://pbreality.wordpress.com.

Flying Buttresses: A Novel of Bipolar Disorder Released by Jane Thompson

Join author Jane Thompson as she learns about the value of support for those who suffer from bipolar disorder in her new novel, Flying Buttresses: A Novel of Bipolar Disorder (now available through Amazon and Kindle).

Georgetown, Texas, USA (July 26, 2013) -- Join author Jane Thompson as she learns about the value of support for those who suffer from bipolar disorder in her new novel, Flying Buttresses: A Novel of Bipolar Disorder (now available through Amazon and Kindle).

My new book, Flying Buttresses, (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flying-Buttresses-Novel-Bipolar-Disorder/dp/1490334254) is not about the support offered Gothic Cathedrals, but about a support group formed by six people with bipolar disorder, people in varying degrees of wellness and abilities to function. This book is the story of how they helped-and didn't help each other, how they encouraged each other and how they worked to promote stability for each member. Each of them has a story, and each story is fascinating.

Meet Missy, who tries to damp her mania with vodka with no success. And Carleton, who stays on his lithium but finds that mania invariably creeps up on him anyway. Jackie, an attractive blond, has lost custody of her child because of her illness, and has to fight to get him back. Suzy is obsessed with a rock star and can't get him out of her mind. Abby has fallen in love with a married man and can't get up. Marie has lost her job and is trying to find her balance. See how these people, all with the same disorder, come together to try to mitigate the damages of the illness and to reach stability through therapy and medication.

They support each other through the search for the proper medications, though it is difficult for each individual to find the right ones for them. Their senses of humor and outlooks on life help each of them to life with the difficulties of living with the pain of mental illness.

The book is meant to be diverting and to tell a story, but also to educate people as to how the disorder works and the means of combatting it. It is meant for those suffering from the disorder and friends and family of those who have the illness.

Santerno Solar Inverters Deliver Proven Performance at Solar Systems' Mildura Solar Power Station in Australia

Contract with Solar Systems Demonstrates that Santerno Inverters Designed for Optimal CPV Performance in Harsh Conditions Such as Arid Australian Outback.

IMOLA, Italy (July 25, 2013) -- Santerno, the Carraro Group company that specializes in alternative energy electronics and industrial automation, today announced the completion of installation of its concentrated photovoltaic (CPV) power inverters in the first phase of the Mildura Solar Power Station Project in Australia. The power station, located in Victoria, was constructed by Solar Systems, wholly owned subsidiary of Silex Systems Limited, and is to be one of the largest solar power stations in Australia.

By standardizing on the Santerno solar inverters, Solar Systems ensures that the Mildura Solar Power Station remains in compliance with Australian construction codes for solar systems. Santerno's solar components are being provided by NHP Electrical Engineering Products, which has been supplying sales and service of Santerno solar technology in Australia and New Zealand since 2003.

Unlike most solar power installations, Solar Systems uses a unique design that concentrates solar power using a parabolic mirror that focuses the sun's energy onto a focal point where a small area of high-efficiency PV cells then converts the solar rays into electrical power. These curved reflecting mirrors are mounted on tracking systems that follow the sun to deliver concentrated CPV energy throughout the day. Stage one of the Mildura Power Station project is a 1.5 MW demonstration solar array; enough clean energy to power 500 homes.

"Solar Systems' innovative tracking dish design is one of the most efficient PV designs we have seen, and it's installed in some of the harshest climates on the planet," said Marco Tecchio, Chief Executive Officer of Santerno. "The successful completion of this project demonstrates the resilience of our solar inverters and their suitability for use in even the most challenging environments. We anticipate that, with the aid of partners such as Solar Systems, we will be able to continue to expand into global markets, including Australia."

Santerno is aggressively expanding into new global markets with new contracts signed recently in South Africa and the United States.

About Santerno
Headquartered in Imola, Italy, with offices around the globe, Santerno designs and markets solar inverters and products used to produce electricity from renewable sources. Since 2006 the company has been part of the Carraro Group, a multinational company specializing in power transmission systems with engineering and production operations in 16 countries. Santerno has more than 40 years of expertise in design automation of power electronics and has manufactured solar power inverters for 27 years, hybrid vehicles for 16 years, and wind power systems for six years. Santerno has more than 40 distributors worldwide.

How I Fell in Love Online Keynotes Dating Expo

Dating websites, Keynote Address, and Dance Party are featured at the Online Dating Expo, September 7, 2013, at the DoubleTree Hotel San Francisco Airport.

SAN RAFAEL, CA, USA (July 25, 2013) -- Contact: Tom Andrews, 415-507-9962

John and Loretta Gavin, creators of the new book Online Dating S*cks...but it's how I fell in love, will keynote the Online Dating Expo, Saturday, September 7, 2013, 7pm-Midnight, at the DoubleTree Hotel San Francisco Airport, 835 Airport Blvd, Burlingame CA.

"One of the biggest mistakes in online dating is having s*x too early," say The Gavins, (who barely avoided the mistake themselves). "Online dating makes getting dates EASIER, but falling in love HARDER. Among guys the ease of arranging dates online creates the mindset of 'Next...always next.' It then becomes difficult for men to be fully 'present' during any one date because of anticipation of dates to come. Men fall into the trap of making their goal to find dates rather than to find the right partner. As a result, women feel pressured to have s*x too early in the relationship, because they know this guy in front of them is likely dating other women as well. The result is lots of dates, but very few lasting relationships.

"It's important to find out if this person you're considering being intimate with is a good match for you," say The Gavins. "If you don't find out who they are, and if they're right for you, before parting the sheets-it can be too late afterwards. The point of online dating should be to find your LAST first date rather than your NEXT one."

John & Loretta Gavin, who recently married, are available to the news media for interviews by calling 209-202-4970. Their website is http://www.onlinedatingsucksbook.com.

The Online Dating Expo begins at 7pm with exhibits of leading dating websites. At 7:30pm, representatives of these websites will give a quick overview of the options they provide. The Keynote Address is at 8pm, followed by a Dance Party until midnight.

The Expo is co-sponsored by The International Association of Dating Websites, a non-profit trade association for the online dating industry, at iadw.org; The Society of Single Professionals, the world's largest non-profit singles organization; and by numerous dating websites. Adults of all ages are welcome. The cost is $20 at the door. Anyone wishing more information may visit http://www.thepartyhotline.com or call 415-507-9962.

Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (July 24, 2013) -- With all the talk of Obamacare and reductions in insurance reimbursements in the US among physicians, it is more important than ever for physicians to set up non-insurance based revenue centers in their practices, including a weight loss (hCG) program.
