Tonight’s event is strictly a networking event with no scheduled speakers.

“Mid May is getting in to the busy real estate season,” says Shenoah Grove, President of Austin RENC and founder of the local real estate company Hippie Hollow Homes. “We’ve found that this is the best time to find deals, and as such, hosting our Big Networking Event becomes on of our most popular events of the year.”

“Bring about 150 business cards and any deals you have,” says Phill Grove, the creator of the Assignment of Mortgage Payments System. “If you’re a rehabber, you’ll find wholesalers with houses to sell. If you sell homes with owner financing, you’ll find Realtors with buyers who can’t qualify for traditional mortgages. Whatever or whoever you require to add to your arsenal, you will find it on Thursday night.”

Wendell August Brings Hand-Crafted Gifts To The Made In America Store

Elma, NY (PRWEB) May 11, 2012

The Made In America Store, known for selling USA made products, presents a new metal working vendor into their store. Wendell August brings their prestigious, handcrafted aluminum and other metal gifts to the Made In America Store just in time for Mother’s Day. Consumers looking for something a little different for Mother’s Day can rely on the all-America store for great gift ideas.

Wendell August is America’s oldest and largest forge, manufacturing hand-made metal ware and gift ware with aluminum since 1923. An active member of the coal industry, Wendell August decided to start the gift company at the age of 38 in Brockway, Pennsylvania. August partnered up with Ottone Pisoni, a blacksmith in the same coal mine, after he was so impressed with Pisoni’s work of hand-forged latches for his home.

August was so inspired by the low cost and high quality of Pisoni’s work that he started an ironware business. Pisoni and August handcrafted their first product line to include fireplace andirons, candlesticks, lighting standards, doorknockers, latches, railing and grilles for windows and doors.

Today, Wendell August still uses their original painstaking, eight-step process to manufacture each heirloom in aluminum. The eight steps include die engraving, material selection and cutting, repousse, surface anvil-ing, edging, carbon coloring, a three stage polishing process and forming.

The Made In America Store also offers more great Mother’s Day gifts including candles, clothes and decorations. Consumers can visit http://www.MadeInAmericaStore.com to find the full list of gifts and products.

Irvine, CA (PRWEB) May 06, 2012

On April 20th, Concordia University Irvine’s (CUI) business students Kevin Black, Danielle Daviscourt, Zack Freeno, Melissa Merrill, Samantha Moser and Johanna Sceresini achieved First Place in the LCEF (Lutheran Church Extension Fund) National Student Marketing Competition in St. Louis.

Students from four Concordia universities nationwide conducted research, designed marketing plans and rehearsed presentations in the months leading up to competition. The Concordia University Irvine team, under the guidance of Professor Carolyn Shiery, compiled research and developed a campaign with a core message of “I Am Called.” They created videos, promotional materials and an electronic/social media strategy.

“Overall, I think the students did an outstanding job, achieved what they set out to do and learned so much more than just creating a campaign,” said Shiery. “They enjoyed meeting the executives and staff at LCEF and students from across the country. It was an opportunity of a lifetime.”

LCEF plans to invest up to $ 200,000 towards implementing the CUI-developed marketing campaign in their efforts to support their role as a service partner of the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod (LCMS).

“We expect to use the students’ fresh ideas and unique perspectives in future efforts to raise awareness of our organizations’ mission,” said Becca Jones, LCEF senior vice president of marketing.

More information about the LCEF National Student Marketing Competition including a video of the final presentations can be viewed at LCEF.org.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) April 27, 2012

With over fifteen years of experience, 411 Pain has proven itself a trustworthy ally of the victims of auto accidents, helping people transition back to their everyday lives while easing pain, suffering, and confusing. 411 Pain reminds people of their rights should they be injured in an auto accident; they may be entitled to thousands of dollars in personal injury benefits and lost wages, depending on the facts of each case. The company reaches out to the community, inviting anyone who is unfortunately involved in such an accident to contact them at a toll-free number: 1-800-411-PAIN. It takes responsibility to schedule the victim’s appointment with a doctor experienced in that given type of injury, and to provide the victim with transportation to a professional doctor’s office nearby.

In the unfortunate scenario of an accident, it’s very easy to become confused, panic-struck, or even completely overwhelmed. While the best strategy is prevention, there are several invaluable tips to consider in case something violent does happen. Be prepared. Remain composed. As much as possible, channel your calmest self.

o    No matter what, take a moment to assess the situation first. Always look before you leap; if you’ve crashed on the highway, for example, don’t just jump out of your car into oncoming traffic—because if you weren’t already hurt, you will be.

o    Call the police and/or ambulance. It’s their job—they will help.

o    Check yourself (and the people with you) for injuries. You may not notice them immediately, due to distress and adrenaline, so always allow a professional to check on you at the scene or after you leave it. If it’s safe, remain in the car (if car fuel is leaking, for instance, it’s time to get out); it may exacerbate a person’s wounds if you move them. You can also call a service company such as 411 PAIN for immediate advice and assistance.

o    Don’t leave the accident scene if it isn’t physically dangerous (i.e. things aren’t about to blow up). Not only may driving away be illegal, but leaving the scene could affect your insurance or accident claim. Stay until the police arrive or (if it’s a minor accident) the paperwork is done and the issue has been resolved.

o    It’s essential to remain calm. You’re full of adrenaline, fear, confusion, maybe even rage—understandable, but detrimental. If you stay calm, you’ll handle the situation at your best. Focus on dealing peacefully with all others, exchange information methodologically and calmly, and avoid arguing at all costs (that can escalate very quickly); leave the very agitated people to the police.

o    Speak carefully. Don’t voluntarily accept responsibility, assume liability, sign any papers, or agree to pay for anything without speaking to the investigating police officer(s) first. Tell your side of the story to them, explaining your perspective and if you’re at fault or not.

411 PAIN also offers to connect the victim with an attorney who can explain the facts of his or her case, and provide whatever knowledge and resources are possible in order to get the victim’s life back on track. Apart from its free referral services, 411 PAIN also brings the community together by sponsoring local events and donating to local charities. Available 24/7, including weekends and holidays, the company can also be found online through various social networks:

Madix Inc., one of the largest store fixture manufacturers in North America, has selected SunGard’s AvantGard Receivables (GETPAID) on a Software-as-a-Service* (SaaS) basis to help automate collections and dispute management, as well as reporting to help reduce exposure to possible bad debt expense and improve dispute resolutions.

Chelsea, London (PRWEB UK) 21 April 2012

Andrea’s work has always explored the paradoxes of human spirituality and its delusions of dualism and separation. Always wondering about the future of our civilization and if we will breakthrough and transform or breakdown and end? Looking for her own answers she found herself exploring the meaning of what lies behind the stone-incrusted covers of our most precious beliefs.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, she discovered her vocation and love for painting at the age of 6. At age 15 she began studying with master Anselmo Piccoli, a well-established constructivism and geometric painter who quickly became her mentor. She studied under Mr. Piccoli’s tutelage for almost a decade; and he was the first to present her work to the art world. During the same period she received her master of Architecture and Urban design. Later, attracted by the imaginary worlds created by the film industry, she moved to Los Angeles in 1990.

Hollywood opened it’s arms offering her a sense of limitless. It gave her the opportunity to combine her love for painting and drawing with her love for architecture, and it provided the funding to create the incredible.

Recently Andrea formed part of the design team that created the latest generation of the Starship Enterprise. Her vision guided the design of the cityscapes for Spiderman to swing from, and her concept illustrations help envision the look and feel for many of the latest films.

Her latest paintings are heavily influenced by the work she was commissioned to create for the film Angels and Demons, designed by English production designer Alan Cameron. There she was immersed in a deeply religious subject, the mystery of the illuminati based on Dan Brown’s book.

“I was able to read the original Vatican ledgers, provided by the Getty Museum. Manuscripts inked in beautiful handwritten Italian, accounting for the art that was commissioned to Bernini by pope Urbano VIII; including how much he was paid and the conditions for the execution of his sculptures. To create a hand bound ledger; similar to what is found in the Vatican vaults, I did water color paintings to account for all the work Bernini produced in his life time.”

Andrea’s work was shot extensively for multiple full screen close–ups and later published in a companion book.

“Immersed in a make believe world, your dreams become limitless, and the contrast with the real world is self-evident. On the inside everything is possible. On the outside chaos and uncertainty seem to be driving our civilization to the blink of destruction. I think that despite all the progress made by the human race in the last 400 years, we are not so far from the controversies the world faced in the times of Bernini and Galileo. I am disturbed by the observation of this aspect. We are seemingly blind to our actions, never apologizing for an uncontrollable quest for power. It feels as if all the dreams and hopes for a different answer were fading away and the religious institutions become not a solution to our despair, but part of it.”

With her work Andrea opens a new door to keep the discussion open.
