General Interest : Studies Reveal Rate Of Infidelity Growing
|
| on 2010/7/22 22:50:00 (78 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Infidelity...it's a disease for which there seems to be neither cause nor remedy. And with the number of extramarital affairs growing at an alarming rate, Michigan investigative services such as Lakeside Investigations often work around the clock to help alleviate emotional pain for the victimized spouse. Statistics vary for the rate of infidelity that is taking place due to the amount of secrecy involved. But one thing that's certain is more and more people are admitting to adulterous affairs than in the past.
According to one study, 22 percent of married men and 14 percent of married women admitted to straying during their marriage. Other studies show much higher percentages in recent years, even up to 55 percent or greater for men. Studies also show that 70 percent of women and 54 percent of men did not know that the extramarital affair was taking place. This is why Chris Charow of Lakeside Investigations in St. Clair Shores, Michigan believes his services are needful in today's society.

General Interest : The Rise of the New OAP - the 'Older, Active Protester'
|
| on 2010/7/21 12:20:00 (133 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- The UK's over 50s have long said goodbye to stereotypical age-associations of pipes and slippers and traded them for placards and petitions. New research shows that a huge number of over 50s are at their most politically active, and feel more passionate about protesting and standing up for what they believe in since they turned 50 years old.
The research, commissioned by insurance provider RIAS, suggests that over a third (36%) of over 50s, equivalent to 7.8 million people, are following in the footsteps of older celebrity campaigners like Joanna Lumley, and consider themselves more politically active now than when they were passionate youngsters burning bras in the 1960s and 1970s, and when banning the bomb was the issue of the day.

General Interest : Vinegar For Car And House Cleaning by: Nick Vassilev
|
| on 2010/7/14 11:00:00 (87 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Many blokes (and non-blokes) receive car grooming gifts for Christmas. Some receive them for their birthdays. If you got something else, don’t despair if you want to get the chrome and paintwork nice and gleaming. If you’ve got a bottle of vinegar in your kitchen cupboard, you can clean your car perfectly well – without getting your hands all itchy and cracked from using ferocious chemicals. But hang onto your chamois leather cleaning cloth – this is still a great way to clean your car.
And many of these tips for cleaning a car with vinegar can be applied to other cleaning jobs around your home – you can use them for cleaning bathrooms and other places with chrome fittings, and for window cleaning and mirrors cleaning. Chrome responds very well to being cleaned with vinegar. Use full strength vinegar and apply it to chrome – inside and out – with a soft cloth.

General Interest : Fourth of July: Biggest Relapse Days for Recovering Alcoholics, Substance Abusers
|
| on 2010/7/4 10:40:00 (98 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- The Fourth of July holiday centers on drinking and parties, which is the reason that "America's Birthday" is also one of the top relapse days for people battling drug and alcohol addiction. It's common for family and friends to gather on the Fourth of July for outdoor parties, to watch fireworks or to spend the holiday at the lake. Amy Sheldon of Turning Point Recovery Service (turningpointrecovery.net) says that the Fourth of July is a tough holiday for people in recovery:
"This holiday is a family oriented time and there is an expectation to attend family functions. For many of our clients, family functions often have alcohol flowing freely. We tell our clients to take extra precautions over the Fourth of July holiday, so that they don't get themselves into a situation where they set themselves up for failure."

General Interest : 4th of July Partying and Out of Control Drinking
|
| on 2010/6/30 11:20:00 (100 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- July 4th is one of the most deadly holiday periods of the year due to impaired driving. While many of these individuals are drinking because of the event or the social occasion, this is just another day of over-consuming for many others. In fact, a study by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) indicated that 30% of Americans have had, or currently have, problems with alcohol. Alarmingly, a small fraction of these ever seek help. Why? Many issues - shame, social stigma, perceived expense, etc. Many more have tried to get help, but are turned off by what is taught about alcoholism. And in their gut they are correct to feel that way.
In 2007, national statistics indicate 34 percent of all drivers involved in traffic-related crashes during the July 4th holiday period had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or higher, the legal limit in all states (http://news.tennesseeanytime .org/node/2190). The number of these including problem drinkers may surprise you. According to the NIAAA, researchers found that 17.8 percent of those interviewed reported that they had abused alcohol at one time or another, and 12.5 percent reported alcohol dependence. About 24 percent of alcohol dependents seek help, and only 7 percent of the alcohol abusers ever seek help. People need to change the way they view alcoholism and recovery. "I simply don't believe that alcoholism is a 'disease' and that we are fated to die a slow painful death due to our own self-destruction," says Liz Michael, president and founder of Second Chance Health & Wellness, Inc. and MODER8 , a dietary supplement and online program for helping problem drinkers gain control of their drinking.

General Interest : Water Damage New York and the State Insurance Department by: Leo Nov
|
| on 2010/6/30 10:20:00 (87 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- The New York State Insurance Department has issued certain guidelines in order to help them prepare for floods during the hurricane season. One of the main points of the department is to ensure that the insurance policies are reviewed by their holders. This is to ensure the protection of their property and businesses in the event of water damage in New York.
Just like in other states such as Florida, Louisiana, and Texas, New York is not spared from the storm season. Thus, residents are encouraged by the local government to get in touch with their insurance agents or company representatives to have their queries answered even before the need arises. In New York, the hurricane season starts in June and lasts until November. It can result in large amounts of property damage so there is a need to ensure proper coverage. Because standard policies do not usually include protection against flood damage, the home or business owner should make the right confirmatory moves.

General Interest : Fireworks and Your Family: Leave It to the Pros. Wisconsin Pediatricians Urge Caregivers to Prohibit Use of Fireworks.
|
| on 2010/6/25 8:00:00 (127 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- With the Fourth of July holiday just around the corner, many parents will buy fireworks to entertain their families. The Wisconsin Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (WIAAP) advises families that while celebrations and fireworks often go hand in hand, fireworks in the hands of non-professionals can spell disaster.
“Quite simply, the safest way to enjoy fireworks is to take your family to watch any of the great professional display events available over the holiday,” said Jeffrey W. Britton, MD, FAAP, chair of the chapter’s Violence and Injury Prevention committee. “Children need to know that fireworks are not toys, they should never touch or ignite them, and if they find fireworks they need to seek help from an adult.”

General Interest : WedLock Magazine Empowers Wedding Professionals With a Printed Journal Specifically Designed to Help Attract More Brides
|
| on 2010/6/14 17:30:00 (154 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- They're the unsung heroes of the enormous wedding industry. They sit in the back of the room wearing suits or tuxes, making sure every wedding runs smoothly. Quietly, unobtrusively, they make millions of bridal dreams come true. But who's helping them learn wedding marketing? Who's showing wedding professionals how to find more brides and grow their businesses?
"We thought it was crazy!" says Jayne Hallock, Editor in Chief and Co-Founder of WedLock Magazine, "Many of us had worked in the wedding industry and could never figure out why there wasn't a monthly trade journal for wedding professionals. One that taught great wedding marketing ideas, month after month. There are books, there are magazines for gown shops, there are seminars, but no monthly program for the industry as a whole. Once we factored in our publishing and marketing experiences - it became a no-brainer for us to launch this magazine." WedLock Magazine is the brainchild of the four partners of EverSpark Interactive, an SEO and marketing agency: Jason Hennessey, Chris Watson, David Hallock and Jayne Hallock. Before forming EverSpark, the partners had successful careers in the publishing field, the wedding industry and an award-winning marketing agency. They eventually all met while working at a company that taught internet marketing to small business owners. There, the team helped publish a wildly popular marketing magazine (called "The Net Effect") which taught readers how to maximize their profits online. Once they were out on their own, the EverSpark partners realized that all of their combined expertise created the "ideal breeding ground" for a robust, cutting-edge marketing and trade journal for wedding professionals. This time, it would serve a market that had never seen its own marketing journal. WedLock Magazine's marketing system is much more than just a flimsy journal. It includes:

General Interest : Summer Bike Safety Tips for Chicago Cyclists
|
| on 2010/6/13 18:10:00 (134 reads) |
(Prudent Press Agency) --- Bicycling magazine once named it the best big city for bicycling in North America. The mayor is an avid cyclist. There is a citywide goal to become the "most bicycle-friendly" in the country by 2015. With 100 miles of bike lanes, 50 miles of off-street trails and 10,000 bike racks (the most in America), Chicago is definitely one bicycle-friendly city. City officials have compelling reasons to do more. As Mayor Richard M. Daley's ambitious Bike 2015 plan points out, Chicago motorists lose hours of potentially productive time in traffic, and spend an average of 17 percent of their budgets on transportation costs alone. Additionally, with more than 60 percent of all adults in the city overweight or obese, increased reliance on bicycling to meet transportation needs might help to promote healthier, more active lifestyles for people who don't have time to exercise.
Bike to Work Week runs from June 12 to June 18. For many who see the traffic of the daily commute as a necessary evil, biking to work can be a viable option depending on how far they have to travel. Not only can biking to and from work melt away the stress of long hours spent stuck in morning traffic, but also it can leave people feeling refreshed and invigorated. With the encouragement of increased bicycling comes the need for education about bicycle safety, which is the job of Mayor Daley's bicycling ambassadors, who speak at various community gatherings throughout the city. Despite the ambassadors' outreach work to inform the public on proper bicycle safety, accidents still happen.

(Prudent Press Agency) --- From children and families to serious riders training for races, bicycle riding is popular summer pastime for many people of Northeast Wisconsin. While we usually consider riding a bicycle a safe activity, there is risk involved. There are ways to stay safe, however.
Bicycle Statistics According to the Bicycle Helmet Safety Institute, more than 50,000 bicyclists were injured in traffic accidents in 2007. Of all the traffic fatalities in 2008, bicyclist deaths accounted for 2 percent. Nearly 40 percent of bicycle accidents involve alcohol, either on the part of the cyclist or a motorist, so it is important to realize that you shouldn't "drink and ride." If you have consumed alcohol and you are on your bike, call someone to pick you up. Most fatal bicycle traffic accidents (69 percent) occurred in urban areas in 2008, and 64 percent occurred at intersections.
