LiveWell Home Care, Inc., http://www.livewellhomecareinc.com a private duty home care service provider based in Los Angeles, CA, is paving the way in 21st century home care solutions with its sponsorship of Aging with Grace L.A., a new web series addressing issues related to the senior community. Aging With Grace L.A. is a three and a half minute program that will air weekly and include tips on healthy aging, chronic disease management, and advice on maintaining a vibrant, thriving, and fulfilling senior lifestyle.

We have dedicated over 10 years learning about the process of healthy aging, and we are honored to sponsor this program so that more people can gain knowledge to help themselves and their loved ones age gracefully, explains LiveWell Home Care founder and CEO Dorika Beckett. We look forward to being part of a revolution in our world to value our elders as a key part of healthy communities, Beckett added.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the U.S. population 65 and older is now the largest in terms of size and percent of the population. Four million of those seniors reside in California and that number is expected to grow to 12.5 million by 2040 as the aging baby boomers enter their senior years. Aging With Grace L. A. was created in direct response to this increasing population, their desire to maintain independent lifestyles as they age, and their growing need for valuable information to help them do so within the comfort and safety of their own home.

As the costs of long term care steadily rises, Medicare and Social Security benefits dwindle, and wallets continue to be strained, affordable quality healthcare becomes an even greater issue of concern in the senior community. In the past, the only senior care options were to either move in with a family member or be placed into a nursing home. Today, there are several options to consider such as assisted living facilities, retirement communities, and in-home care. According to research by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), the most preferred option for 90% of seniors is to continue living at home.

We certainly understand the desire of seniors to remain home and our sponsorship of Aging With Grace L. A. falls in line with our commitment to doing all we can to help them do so, stated LiveWell Client Care Manager, Joyce Ortile. Our goal is not only to provide the best care givers, but to also educate our clients and our community about healthy aging while offering solutions to a growing need.

For 10 years, Southern Californians have trusted LiveWell Home Care to provide compassionate care for their loved ones. The company is excited to sponsor “Aging With Grace L.A.” and invites anyone that would like to receive informative, educational, and at times entertaining information about senior care to watch this new web series. Episodes of “Aging with Grace L.A.” can be viewed on the LiveWell website at http://www.livewellhomecareinc.com/videos.aspx.

Kinetica Media, a decade-old marketing agency in Ohio, has launched Punch Mobile Marketing, a cutting-edge service offered to restaurants and food service providers nationwide to optimize their online mobile presence.

Punch Mobile Marketing helps people quickly find and interact with local restaurants on their mobile phones, Executive Director Chris Swemba said. Punch helps restaurants serve their mobile customers with an intuitive mobile website, while increasing restaurants visibility in dozens of local search engines, GPS devices and mobile applications.

The idea for Punch came from Swembas frustration as a customer. He searched for restaurants only to discover his navigation efforts were fruitless. When I got to their website, it was an even worse experience, Swemba said. I couldnt find any of the information I wanted easily like a phone number or the menu.

Punchs efforts to help restaurants turn Smartphone and tablet users into customers isnt the companys only goal. Rather, along with the mobile marketing services Punch offers, the company established a blog that answers all the burning questions the food service industry has about mobile marketing.

Were constantly creating solutions to put in the hands of our clients, said Sara Petersen, Punchs Content Marketing Manager. These are tools that will help restaurants understand the mobile needs and trends of their customers, and then capitalize them to their advantage.

Learn how to be happy and wealthy from an immigrant who migrated to USA with a total of $ 8 and is now ranked #1 when searching ” Rich Immigrants” on any search engine.

Releasing ones burden from anxiety and worry will free ones mind to think about the important things in life. At the very least, one will be able to think clearly without ones mind being consumed with worry. Often times, people get negative thoughts stuck in their heads and they become consumed with negativity. Just as people let anger, lust and other vices control them, individuals allow worry to dictate their lives. Its also important to surround oneself with positive people and resources. Just as others can negatively influence ones thoughts or make one feel bad about something, one can do the same to others when one casts ones worries into the world around one.

Rather than panicking and worrying about every negative possibility out there, think positively and analyze the reasons why one is anxious or worried. This will enable one to become aware of any reasons behind why one is worried. If one puts in the effort to make a positive change, it will be able to improve ones life in many ways. By identifying things that one may be uncertain of or worried about, one might be able to alleviate them. Learn to laugh at one self rather than worrying about silly things. By analyzing ones worries and doubts, one will be able to educate and make changes to avoid worrying in the future.

One doesnt want to miss out on being happy because one is simply misinformed. Educate oneself, instead of worrying. For example, if it is ones health one is worried about, or going to the doctors office, one must realize that its much more beneficial to explore the informed results rather than misguided possibilities in ones mind. Not doing this is counterproductive because worry can adversely affect ones health.

Remember that one can make good and bad things happen. Wouldnt every one rather have positive things happen and have good things come ones way? Like the saying goes, dont let life happen to one; make life happen. And this certainly, cannot be done if all one does is worry

Inspirational quotes are akin to a blazing fire. If fuel is not continually added, the fire gets extinguished. So keep on adding the fuel of positive thoughts.

Dr. Harsimran Singh is an author of 13 inspirational books including, How 12 Immigrants Made Billions from Nothing. He credits his success to Search Engine Optimization, which helped him have his websites ranked at the top of search engine results. He wants others to be successful as well. He wrote the book, SEO Secrets to BIG Money (valued at $ 45.95) which can be downloaded for free by clicking SEO.

The Consumer Justice Foundation, which is a for-profit corporation that is staffed by a team of professional consumer advocates whose mission is to provide the public with free online informational resources regarding the dangers of certain prescription medications, hereby alerts the public that an FDA panel of advisers has voted to back Qnexa, an obesity medication, for approval. Qnexa contains Topamax, and concerns regarding Topamax side effects led to a denial of approval of Qnexa by the FDA in 2010.

Specifically, Qnexa is an obesity medication that is comprised of phentermine, which is a substance that appears in medications that are approved for short-term weight loss and topiramate, an anticonvulsant medication known as Topamax that is manufactured by Johnson & Johnson. Qnexa has shown that patients who use it tend to lose 10 percent of their body weight over the first year of use.

However, Qnexa was not approved by the FDA in October of 2010 because of concerns regarding Topamax side effects that include the tendency for pregnant women who ingested topiramate to give birth to children with birth defects that include oral clefts. Qnexas manufacturer, Vivus resubmitted Qnexa for consideration by the FDA with additional study information.

This additional information included studies of 3,386 women who used Qnexa despite precautions asking that women in the study use contraception. An FDA expert on birth defects estimated there would be five babies born with a cleft lip defect for every 1,000 women who became pregnant while taking Qnexa. The advisory panel also stated that if Qnexa was approved, the FDA would require Vivus to train prescribers in the pregnancy risks of Qnexa and distribute warning pamphlets to patients regarding Topamax side effects and the possibility of birth defects.

As arts education programs face mounting financial pressure, The NAMM Foundation reminds school districts and communities to help preserve or even grow their music programs by participating in the 2012 Best Communities for Music Education Survey, which celebrates the positive impact of music education on schools, students and communities.

Going strong in its 13th year, the Best Communities for Music Education (BCME) Survey is a nationwide search for communities whose programs exemplify a strong commitment to music education. Established in 1998, BCME recognizes and celebrates schools, their administrators, teachers, board members, parents and students for their support and commitment to music education. The program also recognizes communities and schools that have diverse offerings for music learning that include music technology and innovative music education curricula.

The 2012 survey will remain open until Friday, March 9, 2012 and can be completed at http://www.nammfoundation.org. Each school district or community is allowed to fill out one survey, which must be completed by a school administrator and/or teacher who has access to school and district demographic and budgetary information.

Participants in the survey answer detailed questions about enrollment, student/teacher ratios, music class participation, instruction time, facilities, support for the music program, private music lesson participation and other relevant factors in their communities music education programs. The responses are verified with district officials and program advisors review submission.

As in the previous years, the 2012 survey will be conducted in collaboration with The Institute for Educational Research and Public Service (http://www.ku.edu/~ierps/cgi-bin) of Lawrence, Kansas, an affiliate of the University of Kansas. The BCME final roster will be announced on April 16, 2012.

During this presidential election year, citizens will express their commitment to values and policies. Likewise, this program empowers local advocates to highlight the importance of music education in their schools, said Mary Luehrsen, executive director, NAMM Foundation. More than ever, schools, educators and parents must be proactive about promoting music education for all students.

In conducting the annual survey, the NAMM Foundation is joined by advisory organizations in the fields of music and education: Americans for the Arts, League of American Orchestras, The Mr. Hollands Opus Foundation, Music for All, Music Teachers National Association, National Guild For Community Arts Education, Yamaha Corporation of America, Young Audiences and VH1 Save The Music Foundation.

About The NAMM Foundation

The NAMM Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to advancing active participation in music making across the lifespan by supporting scientific research, philanthropic giving and public service programs from the international music products industry.

Recently, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie signed P.L.2011, c.139 into law, allowing all government agencies including K-12 school districts, local governments and non-profit organizations to use contracts awarded by national cooperative purchasing programs. National purchasing programs such as the PEPPM Technology Bidding and Purchasing Program and the Keystone Purchasing Network (KPN) offer cost saving options to the state-mandated purchasing contracts and local bidding processes available prior to the new legislation.

PEPPM and KPN are nationally recognized and accepted cooperative purchasing program initiatives within the Central Susquehanna Intermediate Unit (CSIU), a governmental agency of Pennsylvania.

PEPPM is a national source for technology purchases and solicits sealed competitive bids on popular brands of computer equipment, peripherals, software, audio-visual, networking and communication products and related supplies.

KPN is a national purchasing procurement program with many regional and national contracts that include office and classroom supplies, copiers, furniture, commercial floor covering, indoor and outdoor athletic surfaces, commercial food service equipment and supplies, modular classroom and portable buildings, roofing and building restoration services, vehicles and other categories of supplies and services.

New Jerseys recent legislation will increase the purchasing options, decrease the purchasing costs, and streamline the procurement process for business managers, technology coordinators, facilities managers, and other procurement professionals.

The procurement managers for school districts, higher education, and government agencies in New Jersey now have options that can create considerable savings of both time and money for the organizations they represent. In addition to offering competitive choices, the PEPPM and KPN purchasing programs eliminate the need for procurement managers to conduct a local bidding process. Instead, the procurement managers can piggyback on the competitively bid contracts already managed by PEPPM and KPN.

When a requisition request for new equipment or supplies is made, procurement managers can first search for a PEPPM or a KPN contract to fill the request. If a contract exists, a purchase can be made immediately, dropping weeks, months and countless bid management hours from an otherwise lengthy procurement process.

This change in New Jerseys cooperative purchasing legislation ensures that the overall lowest price, cost of ownership, shipping costs, and soft costs can be achieved. And because PEPPM and KPN have contracts already in place with popular vendors, the benefits are almost instantaneous.

The PEPPM and KPN cooperative purchasing programs are administered by the CSIU, a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. For more information about PEPPM, visit http://www.peppm.org. For more information about KPN, visit http://www.thekpn.org.

Free websites are being developed and provided to teachers free of charge. These are not just any free websites. They are actual custom websites. “There are many other do-it-yourself website companies out there that are providing websites to teachers in order to help them have a web presence, but few of them come close to conveying the professionalism that FreeCustomWebsite does.” says Greg Trimble, FreeCustomWebsite CEO.

The ways in which teachers can utilize a custom website in their profession are numerous. A teacher can use a website to post important information about his or her class. The teacher can post important scheduled dates, homework due dates, test taking days, makeup test days, a syllabus, study guides, and other information that will help the students become more successful. As time goes on more more students will utilize computers as well as the Internet in order to complete and deliver their work. Teachers can have a secure upload portal where students can upload their homework or even take tests. Teachers that wish to get even more advanced with their website, may have a special student portal set up in which a student can login and see information that is directed specifically at that student.

Teachers can now use their websites to post grades immediately so that students do not need to wait until the next class period to see their grades. Trimble continues, “the possibilities are almost endless for teachers that utilize a free custom website. Imagine if the teacher is sick and cannot get a sub, or needs to postpone a class or a project. Students can receive real-time alerts just by the teacher posting a comment or update on their website which can in turn flow down to all of their social networks. In theory a teacher could put down pen and paper for good. They can have term papers and homework typed up and submitted online and organized through the teacher portal. Then the teacher can grade and mark up the homework or assignments on an iPad or tablet straight from the Internet. The teacher can then subsequently grade the paper, record the grade, and submit the paper back to the student without wasting a single piece of paper or pen. Free teacher websites help teachers be more efficient and stay in better communication with their students. This goes for all grades K-12, and into higher education.

FreeCustomWebsite.com provides teachers and students with a way to connect using free custom websites.
