Children’s Book Author Offers Comfort to Grieving Families

Bringing comfort to families grieving the death of a beloved pet is the goal of Bailey’s Heartstrings, written by Joy Chicatelli, a caring animal lover who grew up on a small farm in Holmes County, Ohio.

Valley View, OH, May 18, 2011 — The new author was inspired to write the story while dealing with a personal experience involving her dog, Louis, who needed weekly chemotherapy treatments. “During Louis’ treatments I met many parents who talked about having to explain the eventual death of a pet to their children. I wanted to create a positive and comforting way to help them explain this difficult life experience,” Chicatelli said.

“I love to write, and as an attorney, I do it all the time,” said the former corporate executive, assistant prosecuting attorney and law firm partner. “But, I wanted to challenge myself, explore creative writing, and publish a children’s book.”

Bailey’s Heartstrings is a story about a dog that wakes up and finds herself in a beautiful meadow filled with flowers, a bubbling stream and a rainbow that never goes away. The animal is no longer sick and can run and play with many other dogs.

Readers will join Bailey as she travels from the Rainbow Meadow back to visit her human family in order to bring them wonderful surprises that cheer them up in her absence. Bailey also helps her family find a new dog in an animal shelter.

A portion of the proceeds from Bailey’s Heartstrings, published in May by Halo Publishing International, will be donated to animal rescue, a cause Chicatelli works for constantly. The author hopes to raise money and awareness for animal rescue so that people will know the many ways, other than adoption and donations, that they can help pets affected by disasters and other compromising situations, she said.

Chicatelli has her own law practice in Akron, Ohio and concentrates in Family Law. She dedicates a substantial portion of her practice to the representation of survivors of violent crimes and sexual assault, many of whom are children. For nearly a decade, she has consistently ranked as one of the top three Ohio attorneys assisting survivors.

She also has three Dogue de Bordeaux dogs that compete in shows and recently earned her first AKC Championship.

Chicatelli is a graduate of West Holmes High School, the University of Akron, Malone College and Cleveland Marshall College of Law.

SmartTOP Comfort Top Controller Now Available for VW EOS Facelift Model 2011+

The aftermarket SmartTOP roof control module offered by Mods4cars is now available for the newest facelift model of the Volkswagen EOS. It allows opening and closing the top at the touch of a button at slow speeds as well as from afar with the original remote fob and comes with new features added.

Ocean, NJ, May 18, 2011 — The SmartTOP add-on convenience kit offered by Mods4cars ( http://www.mods4cars.com ) is now compatible with all models of the Volkswagen EOS, from 2006 through now including the new facelift model. In addition to the functions and features of the previous version, two new features were added this time. This gives the user additional convenience to choose from.

The previous version of the SmartTOP controller for VW EOS already offers plenty of features: The convertible top can be opened or closed at the touch of a button and while driving at slow speeds (up to 28mph / 44kmh) or from afar with the original key fob. There is no need to reprogram the key or use additional key fobs.

New features include three different modes of remote operation, selectable by the user, allowing different key combinations to activate the top. Owners who purchased the “Keyless Access” feature with their cars can now also open and close the convertible top, windows and sunroof individually via touch sequences on the door handle, instead of having to dig for the key first.

“We are pleased to offer this new version of the SmartTOP module which adds compatibility to the latest EOS facelift model as well as new and exciting convenience features.”, says PR-manager Sven Tornow. “By means of the USB port present on previously purchased SmartTOP modules our current customers can now quickly and easily update their modules – free of charge.” All Mods4cars modules now offer this standard port, which allows not only updating the module via PC but also simple point and click configuration of all module features and options to taste.

The add-on kit offered by Mods4cars retails for 249,00 Euro + tax and is easy to install for anyone, thanks to the included plug-and-play wiring adapter.

SmartTOP Modules are available for convertibles and roadsters by: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in California and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.
