About The Brothers Strong & Co.

The Brothers Strong & Co. are a 4-piece string band based out of Sonora, CA. Stemming from the foothills and mountains of the Sierra Nevada the band has formed their own brand of “mountain” music based heavily in Americana and folk. Their live sets are best described as a self-proclaimed boxing match. Each fast song has the audience on their toes bobbing and weaving just like a boxer set, ready for the head jabs.

While the band adopted the name The Brothers Strong & Co. when the fiddle player, Owen Ragland, and bassist, Ian Evans joined with the brothers, Stephen Strong: guitar player, and Shane Strong: banjo player, they’ve always understood that music unites people to form a community. It is in this spirit that “Co.” stands not just for the band members on stage, but for all the good company the band has.

Offshore Reviews based in Panama City, Panama, has become a one-stop solution for clients seeking offshore service providers.

PANAMA CITY, PANAMA – 3 Mar, 2016 – Now that OffshoreReviews.com has launched their unique web portal offering reviews of a plethora of offshore banking service providers. Not only is this one-stop solution great for potential clients, but it also presents an exceptional opportunity for all offshore service providers to list their firms and have a steady flow of potential prospects. Instead of bouncing around the Internet looking for offshore providers, such as: Offshore Incorporators, Registered Agents, Offshore Banks, Offshore Brokerages, Legal Services, Offshore Precious Metals, and more, now it is only necessary to go to one main site and get the required information.  In the offshore banking industry, due diligence is of critical importance, and the new OffshoreReviews.com site certainly simplifies the process. 

The site is really the personification of a “Win-Win” situation. Potential clients can literally save thousands of dollars by “shopping” their offshore needs. One of the unique features of the site is its Feedback System. There is no other place to go to find user Feedback on Offshore Service Providers. Searching the Internet to find an offshore banking services provider is not going to reveal what actual clients think about that firm. If they had a good experience, it will be so noted. If they had a terrible experience they can share it with the world. Offshore Services Vendors can position themselves at the top of their category by simply taking good care of their clients so they can garner positive feedback. 

Firms that provide offshore banking and other services can become a Premium Member. They will have an advantage in increasing their company’s credibility, online reputation and bottom line. A company spokesperson explains: “Up until now there has not been any way for consumers interested in opening an offshore bank account, forming an offshore company or trust, making offshore investments, purchasing and storing precious metals offshore, etc. etc. to obtain reviews about businesses they may be interested in patronizing. For example if a business in the United States decides to open an offshore subsidiary in the British Virgin Islands, there are over 300 companies that provide this service. And prices can range from less than $1000 to over $10,000 for the same product. Consumers, until now, had no means of choosing or knowing the reputation of businesses in the industry. We plan to change that.”

Alcohol Awareness Month prelude: Six signs of the alcopocalypse

0
0

BURLINGTON, WI – 3 Mar, 2016 – As a prelude to April’s observance of Alcohol Awareness Month, health journalist and recovery author, Scott Stevens, has posted the “Six signs the next 10 years for the alcohol biz will look like the last 20 for tobacco.” The article acknowledges no prohibition is on the horizon, and alcohol manufacturers will remain profitable just as the tobacco industry remains solvent, but a sea change will make the next decade look different when it comes to the choice to drink.

“America is driven by freedom to make choices,” says Stevens, “Even when they’re unanimously unhealthy, and alcohol won’t stop being the drug of choice for the stressed or the celebrating. However, the writing on the wall says, ‘What causes problems, is one,’ and the writing is ominous for the nearly free-flow of alcohol.”

Here are the six signs detailed in the 4,000 word article on addictedminds.com and alcohologist.com at 12 noon CST March 4:

1. Healthcare costs continue to rise, forcing a focus on cost-drivers.

2. Productivity weakens, forcing a focus on cost-drivers.

3. More long-term health consequences from moderate drinking coming to light… while more ‘benefits’ of drinking are being debunked.

4. More attention is being paid to impact of alcohol advertising on youth.

5. Drinking and driving abatement has stalled.

6. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders have eclipsed autism in number of cases and in long-term costs per case.

The author of three alcoholism recovery books also is launching a month-long video series of 26 two-minute episodes of The A-Files airing throughout Alcohol Awareness Month on social media and various websites. The episodes are alphabetical, A-Z, each covering one health topic associated with moderate alcohol use, not just the disease of alcoholism. Established in 1987, Alcohol Awareness Month is observed each April to increase awareness and understanding of alcohol, alcoholism and recovery.

Of the “six signs” article, Stevens says, “When the tables turned on tobacco, public education increased and dipped down into the earliest grades, advertising was severely restricted and the industry bristled under public regulation rather than the old-boy-network of self-policing to which it have become accustomed. Predictably, as these six trends come into greater public focus, the alcohol industry will face the same scrutiny and restrictions as the manufacture, marketing and sales of tobacco have. And predictably, people will still drink. The Alcohology app, The A-Files and this article, hopefully add to the dialogue about why we drink a toxin and known carcinogen.”

Scott Stevens is the award-winning author of What the Early Worm Gets, Every Silver Lining Has a Cloud, and Adding Fire to the Fuel. He’s among the Founding Influencers of the world’s largest medical portal, HealthTap, and serves as a representative of concierge treatment pioneer, Tailored Transitions, and the Public Relations Officer for treatment marketer, Addicted Minds & Associates.

Social Security Reform Hot Topic for Presidential Candidates

0
0
The changing economic landscape in America makes it imperative that individuals factor in the unexpected. No one has a crystal ball. Every retirement portfolio should be globally diversified.
With the presidential debates heating up, candidates are purposely avoiding the issue of social security. Experts say that shortfalls can be expected in the program by the year 2033, with retired Americans only receiving 77% of the full benefits they were promised.

FLAGSTAFF, AZ – 3 Mar, 2016 – One thing most presidential candidates have in common is that they enjoy debating things, but few want to venture out into the landscape of Social Security reform. That’s because many have tried and failed to make any lasting or beneficial changes to the program. Hillary Clinton has been talking about Capital Gains reform. Many experts have called her plan “stupid” because it basically doubles the capital-gains tax rate for the sale of assets like real estate, stocks and bonds. The naysayers are pointing out that Clinton’s plan would discourage investments at a time when the government should be encouraging them.

Though there’s very little chance her plan will even be further discussed, it highlights the fact that politicians are struggling to make some sort of announcement, impact or commentary that will get the attention of the voting public. As with all presidential elections, Social Security reform continues to be an important, but complex subject for discussion. What so many have overlooked is that Social Security has been successfully providing retirement benefits for 80 years to elderly Americans. While thousands of programs, fads and schemes have come and gone, Social Security is still in operation. That’s not to say the program  hasn’t experienced it challenges.

New reports are asserting that by 2033, the Social Security program will only be able to pay out 77% of benefits to recipients. This means that if an individual works hard for 40 years and is entitled to an $1,800 a month pay-out, they’ll only be getting $1,386 per month in the year 2033. Millennials are the group who will be primarily affected by these shortfalls. If an individual was born in 1985 (millennials are considered those who were born between 1980-2000), then they would be retiring in the year 2050. Without some dramatic changes to the Social Security program, there’s a very good chance that this individual would not even be able to collect 77% of their benefits.

All this talk of Social Security shortfalls has many Americans worried, but financial planners say that the solution is simple: Americans must stop relying on Social Security and other government benefit programs and develop their own  retirement income strategies. With the guidance of a good financial professional , there’s no reason that Americans can’t  create a retirement income that they won’t outlive.

According to Travis Babb at Babb Financial Group LLC in Flagstaff, Arizona, individuals must now take other mitigating factors into consideration. “The changing economic landscape in America makes it imperative that individuals factor in the unexpected,” says Babb. “No one has a crystal ball. Every retirement portfolio should be globally diversified,” he claims, citing the recent financial meltdowns of Greece and China. “Baby boomers who are retiring now need more information.”

Making just one mistake can have implications on their portfolio. When planning for retirement, people have to take into consideration illness, the death of a spouse, recessions, inflation, cost of living adjustments, and all types of unexpected events.”

Today’s retirees are living much longer as well. In fact, on average, someone living today can expect to collect at least 12 additional years of Social Security as opposed to those in 1940. With modern medicine, innovative treatment options, and all-new drugs, it’s very possible that the American lifespan will gradually climb. In the year 2000, there were approximately 72,000 centenarians in the US. By the year 2050, it is estimated that there will be about 834,000.

Barack Obama has said in the past that we should capture new revenue, but has no definitive plan on how to do that except for asking the wealthy to pay a bit more payroll tax.  He has also stated that he does not favor the privatization of Social Security. Donald Trump, on the other hand, says that a politician cannot change Social Security and Medicare and still win an election … and he is all about winning. One of the statements that Trump has made that has endeared older Americans is that Social Security is not an entitlement; it’s honoring a deal. He also believes Americans must take their own role in providing for retirement more seriously. 

According to a recent article in AARP, Americans who are over 50 are now very influential in deciding elections. Those from ages 55-64 control about 25% of the nation’s wealth, while Americans 65 and over now control about 30%. That’s a combined 55% of the nation’s wealth controlled by people who are 55 years of age and older. Politicians know these numbers quite well and can be expected to pander to this group of older wealthy Americans from now through election time.

Crave Mattress Announce March Madness Sale On Eco Friendly Mattresses

0

The Company with over 90 years of experience offers two choices of mattresses as opposed to other etailers who say one size fits all. The March mattress sale will see consumers save 15% off any mattress.

For people looking to replace a worn out mattress, Crave Mattress based in High Point, North Carolina has some exciting news. The mattress experts who sell their Eco-friendly mattresses online (cravemattress.com) has announced they have launched a March Madness sale where they are offering 15% off any new mattress.

The sale will give people the chance to purchase a high-quality mattress at a much lower price, but a spokesman for Crave Mattress has warned, the sale is limited to March and after March, the prices will go back to normal. Through the March Madness mattress sale, consumers will be able to see that quality does not have to mean expensive. While other mattress retailers like to keep their prices high, Crave Mattress like to keep quality high and prices low.

Crave Mattress, who has over 90 years of experience in helping people have a great night’s sleep, offer a latex and memory foam mattress and also a plush innerspring hybrid both made from specialty bio-based foams and convoluted latex. The 12” Luxury Plush Innerspring Mattress is a hybrid mattress with pressure point support while 10” Luxury Firm Memory Foam mattress is a latex and foam mattress with conforming back support. These mattresses (https://cravemattress.com/collections/shop/MATTRESSES) provide a person with a great night’s sleep instead of a broken night’s sleep due to an uncomfortable and worn out mattress.

A good night’s unbroken sleep is important for people’s health and wellbeing according to health experts. However, millions of people do not get a good night’s sleep due to an uncomfortable and old mattress. Sleep plays an important role in immune function, metabolism, memory, learning, and other vital functions. If a person is trying to lose weight and they have an unbroken sleep, then this can reduce the chances of them losing as much weight as they need to lose. That is why fitness experts always recommend their clients to get a good night’s sleep and purchase a new mattress if their old one is worn and tired.

The Crave Mattress sale gives consumers the chance to purchase a quality eco-friendly mattress that will give them a great night’s sleep without overspending on their budget.

Fear, Confusion Over Social Security Changes Reinforce Need for ‘Fiduciary’ Advisor

0
0
The recent changes and uncertainty in Social Security claiming strategies, combined with the demise of pensions and other defined benefit plans, means investors will have to rely more on savings, 401(k)s and other investments for which they themselves are responsible. This is why they have to have someone who is acting in their best interest.
– Perkins, president and financial planner with Macon, Georgia-based JL Perkins Wealth Management.
The budget deal passed in Washington contains a bombshell for Social Security recipients. Tucked away in the arcane legalese was small but significant changes to two strategies, and they have people on edge. Here are what they means and what can be done.

MACON, GA – 3 Mar, 2016 – The latest budget deal passed in Washington contains a bombshell for Social Security recipients. Tucked away in the arcane legalese were small but significant changes to two strategies known as “File and Suspend” and “Restricted Application.” 

File and suspend, according to AARP, “is a strategy that can raise benefits for qualifying couples through the use of a combination of spousal benefits and what Social Security calls delayed retirement credits.”

Restricted application acts in a similar manner, and allows a recipient to apply for benefits based upon their spouse’s earnings history while delaying benefits based upon his or her own earnings history.

While only a relatively small percentage of beneficiaries acquitted themselves of the strategies, they were nonetheless experiencing a steep rise in popularity, which was expected to continue in coming decades due to generational demographics and longer life spans. 

No longer; and the sudden change has American workers and retirees wondering what’s next. It’s no small concern. The traditional stereotype of the senior citizen dutifully clipping coupons and waiting for their monthly check has been replaced by thousands of possible claiming strategies and the sophisticated integration with 401(k)s and other portions of the retirement portfolio. 

Market turmoil combined with radical changes to an effective, overwhelming popular and increasingly complicated government program—it’s why financial experts are saying now, more than ever, it’s critical to get advice from an advisor who acts in a fiduciary capacity on behalf of their clients. 

The fiduciary standard is getting a lot of attention on Wall Street, Main Street and the lobbying firms of K Street. The current standard only requires financial intermediaries to act in good faith (which the overwhelming majority undoubtedly do), but they’re not necessarily required to do the absolute best for the client’s individual situation and financial plan. 

The Department of Labor, with the backing of the Obama Administration, wants to change that, and has proposed a fiduciary rule that they say “will put investors first.” Not unexpectedly, it’s met with stiff industry resistance, and for good reason. The definition of fiduciary as contained within the proposed rule in vague, they argue. If one mutual fund is more appropriate than another for an investor’s risk tolerance and investment goals, but slightly more expensive, it nonetheless might expose the advisor to sanctions from regulators or legal action for not offering the absolute cheapest product.

The fear isn’t unfounded, as class-action lawsuits against advisors have steadily increased since the economic downturn of 2008, both to recoup investment losses suffered in the crash, as well as for what plaintiffs feel are blatant violations of an advisor’s fiduciary duty. 

The solution, say advisors like Lee Perkins, is to seek advice from industry practitioners that aren’t waiting for new regulation, and are already acting in a fiduciary capacity for their clients. 

“The recent changes and uncertainty in Social Security claiming strategies, combined with the demise of pensions and other defined benefit plans, means investors will have to rely more on savings, 401(k)s and other investments for which they themselves are responsible,” says Perkins, president and financial planner with Macon, Georgia-based JL Perkins Wealth Management. “This is why they have to have someone who is acting in their best interest.” 

One way to identify a so-called “fiduciary financial advisor” is if they currently specialize in a particular financial area, rather than a generalist that tries to be all things to all people. 

“Someone who might be well-versed in conservation and preservation strategies for the client’s savings, rather than accumulation specialists, would be one example,” Perkins concludes. “One of the keys to success for retirees or pre-retirees is reducing volatility. By properly positioning their assets and withdrawing income in the proper sequence (taxable vs. tax-deferred, Social Security vs. their 401(k)), it safeguards the money lasts. Large increases in account values generally won’t have as much of an impact as major decreases in account values, so reducing that volatility reduces investor anxiety, no matter what comes along.”

CHESTNUT HILL. PA – 3 Mar, 2016 – Pine Manor College, a private, four-year, liberal arts college in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, today inducted seven students into the Delta Chapter of the Alpha Chi National Honor Society. The College also named Dr. Michele Ramirez, Professor of Psychology, as an honorary inductee.

“We are proud to recognize these inductees for their academic excellence and hard work,” said Interim President of Pine Manor College, Rosemary G. Ashby, Ph.D. “They exemplify the strong academic rigor and determination that Pine Manor values.”

Alpha Chi is a national college honor society that accepts only the top 10 percent of juniors, seniors and graduate students in all academic fields. To qualify, students must be full time juniors or seniors with a cumulative grade point average of 3.5, and at least one semester in the junior or senior year with a grade point average of 3.75.

Pine Manor is the fifth college in Massachusetts to establish an Alpha Chi chapter.

This year’s inductees include Jennifer Barrios ’16 of Allston, MA, Yaye Cherif ’17 of Boston, MA, Monserrat Jifkins ’17 of Cancun, Mexico, Jose Occelin ’17 of Mattapan, MA, Ashley Piermarini ’16 of Lancaster, MA, Patricia Pierre ’16 of Boston, MA, and Tashiana Wolfe ’17 of Hyde Park, MA

“It has been an honor to watch these inductees grow academically and personally,” said William Stargard, Ph.D., Professor of Art History and Alpha Chi advisor, who led the induction ceremony. “They have set the highest challenges for themselves, and it is truly inspiring to witness the talent and dedication that they embody.”

The Honorary Alpha Chi inductee Michele Ramirez, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, was recognized for her outstanding contribution to academic excellence at Pine Manor College. In her acceptance speech Professor Ramirez shared her fascination with Cognitive Psychology: “I have always been curious about how each of us learn and the influence of culture on our thought processes. We all have our own learning style and that is the focus of the research I have been conducting over my career.” Addressing the Alpha Chi inductees Ramirez said “I see myself as going on a journey with you, my students, as together we engage in learning. There is nothing more delightful then to be enthralled in class discussion, and yes, I learn as much from my students as they learn from me. As we share diverse experiences and unique ways of understanding the world around us – we all benefit. I would like to end by giving you a few words of advice: remain curious, be a life-long learner, and take what you’ve learned and share it with the world.”

Diane Mello-Goldner, Ph.D., Dean of the College, congratulated Professor Ramirez for her Alpha Chi award recognition: “I am pleased that Dr. Ramirez was honored tonight along with our students. Michele has been an outstanding mentor to her students and has helped them develop important practical skills, while also instilling in them a love of giving back and being a positive change agent in their communities and in their families.”

Michele Ramirez, Ph.D., has been a teacher, a mentor and a leader at Pine Manor for 23 years. She is a resident of Northborough, MA. 

The Alpha Chi induction ceremony was followed by the Honor ceremony in which Pine Manor students were recognized for their academic achievements in the past Spring and Fall semesters.

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – 3 Mar, 2016 – Recruitment Intelligence™, a division of American Recruiting & Consulting Group (ARC Group), announced this morning another strategic partnership with a multi-national construction and military equipment company. With this partnership, Recruitment Intelligence™ is conducting several searches throughout the mid-west, finding qualified, vetted candidates to fill current hiring needs.

Recruitment Intelligence™ will be heavily focusing on the 85% of the passive candidate pool who are not actively looking for a job, but are open to new opportunities when presented with them.

“We are turning the recruitment industry on its head and showing clients an extremely cost effective alternative to traditional recruitment fees,” says Gregg Podalsky, President. “Executives in charge of hiring are so impressed by our unique concept, that they want to jump on board after seeing how much money they can save if they just make one hire.   When potential clients have multiple similar disciplines to fill, their cost per hire drops so dramatically, trying to recruit on their own doesn’t make financial sense any longer, and they engage us to do their hiring.”

ARC Group now has 19 offices around the country to handle the demand for its trademarked search solution, Recruitment Intelligence™.  “Recruitment Intelligence™ is not only saving large multi-national clients tens of thousands of dollars in staffing fees, but is also making recruiting solutions available to small and medium-sized businesses that previously couldn’t afford them,” says Gregg Podalsky. Recruitment Intelligence™ is the cost-effective alternative to traditional recruitment firms, staffing agencies and executive search firms.

Become A Jedi – Star Wars In Real Life

0
0

After the release of The Force Awakens, the latest installment of Star Wars saga more and more people are getting into the hype. Some of them (affiliated in organisations like Legion 501 or Rebel Legion) are not only watching movies and collecting merchandise, but also making cosplays and duelling. So how to become a Jedi Knight or Sith Lord?

There are two main, official organizations with LucasFilm/Disney patronage: Legion 501 (affiliating stormtroopers, Sith Lords and other ‘dark side’ characters) and Rebel Legion (affiliating Jedis, X-wing pilots and generally ‘good guys’).

What do they do, apart of cosplaying (dressing as a movie character)? Actually, a lot. They appear at movie premieres and special events, do a lot of charity work (events, fundraisings, visiting kids in hospitals and more), but most of all, they’re having a great time. Edwin – Trooping itself is very satisfying. I have a great opportunity to meet new, awesome people and at the same time help the ones that require help. It is fun and rewarding to see all those smiles on people’s faces.

Of course, you don’t have to be a member to have such fun – enormous number of people at comic and sci-fi conventions appear in cosplays. Showing off their costumes on facebook speaks for itself.

When asked where to get such an attire, most of them answer with pride – that they made it themselves. Either form the scratch, or adapting clothes found in outlets and second-hand stores. But what if someone just doesn’t have the skill?

Here, with helping hands come fellow cosplayers. Some even make it main or side business – like Jaroslaw of ForceBlades, who currently is running a Kickstarter project, setting up shop aiming at crafting lightsabers. As he says, it’s a side business, but one that he draws a lot positive energy from – relations with customers, a.k.a. fellow fans, and most of all, doing what he likes.

So, to all of you Star Wars fans out there – follow you dreams, join the vibrant community of cosplayers and enjoy your geekdom even more!

Serial entrepreneur, and McIntire School of Commerce graduate, Ajamu Kambon has announced the release of his brand new book, Do You: Success, Wealth, and Relationships – You, Yourself, and Your Dreams. The all-new book is designed to help entrepreneurs achieve new goals by conditioning them mentally for the challenges that come along with owning a business.

Do You offers riveting advice on increasing residual income and wealth, as well as tips for reaching one’s dreams. The condensed self-help book is just 37-pages but offers jam-packed contents that provide concise information for quickly changing one’s mindset for reaching new goals. With chapters such as “Making Right Choices”, “Stop Judging Others & Judge Yourself”, and “Wealth Generation and Monetary Success”, Kambon’s Do You is designed as a structured blueprint for small business owners, freelancers, network marketers, and any emerging or established entrepreneur who wants to increase their success.

About his reasons for writing Do You, Kambon said, “Sharing with you what has worked in my life could possibly give you that extra spark in yours.” Through Kambon’s experiences, he has learned valuable lessons and gained knowledge from others, and he is pleased to share that information. Kambon was hit by a car before he began his studies at UVA and in that moment he understood how important one’s life really is. This instilled in him a new outlook on life. Soon after, he decided to write a book to help others find purpose in their life before it is too late.

Currently, Do You is available exclusively on Amazon in Kindle format. The 5-star rated book has received high feedback from recent readers, and one recent reader commented, “The delivery of the message is as finely-honed as its meaning and purpose. The author has a strong grasp on the concept of success and what it means to oneself. This read serves as a motivating factor to not let inanities hinder your drive and motivation when blazing a path to accomplishment and self-fulfillment.”
