Vail Ski Rentals Something You Will Never Forget

Skiing enthusiasts ranging from children, adults, males and females are always looking for a place where they can enjoy a skiing vacation. A family ski trip is one of the most enjoyable family events that can be participated by both the children and parents alike and thus the need for getting the right Vail Ski Rentals. It is important remembering that during the peak season, it becomes very difficult to get ski rentals at any Vail shop due to the high demand for these skiing accessories. Parents are advised to plan way ahead and book their skiing gear and that of their children as well as those for their children early enough when it is still off season to ensure they cut on costs.
If you are new into skiing, it will probably be more advisable for you to get Vail Ski Rentals rather than purchasing new equipment. One advantage of renting your skiing equipment way before the peak season is that it will always be less expensive and you can pick up your equipment ahead of time instead of waiting in long lines and paying higher rental prices. Basic rental packages will include skis, boots and poles. You should have a choice of beginner, intermediate or performance skis. However, you will need to purchase your own knee guards, gloves as well as ensure that come with warm clothes and water resistant jackets.
Family accommodation facilities that accommodate more than one person are also available at Vail not so far away from the snow filled mountains. You could find the big rooms where up to six people can be accommodated in one room. It is also to ensure that the rooms are well equipped with heating sources to be warm and comfortable after a long day on the mountains.

New Review Site WasThatGood.com Delivers Independent Theatre Opinion

Leave a comment

WasThatGood.com, a new site dedicated to bringing informed and independent theatre review and opinion to stage fans, has been launched in the UK.

The site has been introduced to address a demand for genuine, unbiased theatre reviews which are different from the now-standard sites which are full of intrusive advertising. WasThatGood.com will offer true, honest reviews of shows like Chicago and Billy Elliot from people who have actually been to see them and who are not promoting anything.

WasThatGood.com has been built by Robert Stuart, a big fan of theatre and shows, who was tired of trawling through websites which consisted of nothing but advertisements. The new site will offer impartial opinion, show times and the chance to buy London theatre tickets too.

Robert Stuart says, “There was clearly a gap in the market for a genuine, honest theatre review website – hence why I decided to introduce WasThatGood.com. There are far too many websites around which are advertising based and which actively promote shows – I wanted to have a place where all fans of theatre can share genuine reviews.”

In recent times the economic crisis has resulted in lots of people choosing not to go to see shows any longer for fear of wasting their money. WasThatGood.com intends to address this by giving people unbiased, genuine reviews via which they can make informed choices about which shows to go and see.

In addition to its review services WasThatGood.com will also host show time and date information and will let people search for the highest-rated shows by peer review. Users will also be able to buy tickets for shows all over the country through the site.

About WasThatGood.com

WasThatGood.com was born in an attempt to give the public a say in the world of theatre by offering an independent forum for them to share their opinions. The intent is to promote open discussion regarding the theatre, which could very well lead to improvement as theatres will have to face reality and will no longer be subject to only a handful of critics who have a channel to the public.

But when will I see Granny?

Leave a comment

Imagine a situation where both parents work and care is divided between both maternal and paternal grandparents. In an ideal world this arrangement would continue after a divorce or separation, but frequently all goodwill breaks down leaving children having to cope with new arrangements and often the loss or deterioration of a relationship with one or both sets of grandparents.

I often get asked ‘but what about my rights?’ by caring grandparents who are desperate to continue a relationship with their grandchildren. The sad, depressing, answer is that grandparents have no automatic right to make an application to the Court for contact or residence, unless the children have been living with them for at least 3 years.

Grandparents have an additional hurdle, of having to first apply to Court for‘leave’ to make an application. This application is sent to both parents, who have the opportunity to oppose, or agree to leave being granted. Only if the Judge is satisfied that it is in the child’s best interest for the application to be granted will the matter move to the next stage when a Judge will consider what, if any contact, there should be between grandparent and grandchild. That contact has to be viewed in context as often the children will be spending time with the ‘other’ parent. Frequently, the Court has to juggle complex arrangements to try to accommodate all members of the family (and the child’s school or social commitments).

The Government applauds grandparents for the vital role they play in shaping a child’s future, providing unpaid childcare so parents can return to work. However, since 1989 successive governments have so far refused to amend the law to provide grandparents the automatic right to make an application to the Court to preserve their unique relationship with grandchildren. Following the Family Justice Review, there has been a recommendation that Grandparents should be included in ‘parenting agreements’ setting out the time that children of separated parents should spend not only with Mum and Dad, but Granny and Grandpa too.

Whilst the judicial system may not be quick to help grandparents, I have used other dispute resolution such as mediation, collaborative law and family conferencing to assist in breaking the deadlock between family members and re-establishing contact.

Celebrate Earth Day with a Song – School Teacher Gives Away A Song – Save The Planet

Leave a comment

The song gives you easy, simple steps, that you can take to make the world a better place for you and everyone on the planet.

Bartlett, IL, April 20, 2012 — Michael Droste, a teacher, composer, and musician from Illinois, is giving away a song called “Save The Planet.” “I wanted to get the ‘Save The Planet’ message out to people, and what better way than on Earth Day,” said Droste. Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle need to be your new lexicon,” he added. “Put your paper and plastics in the recycle bin and not the landfill,” he implored. New LED lights are a little expensive now, but over time will get cheaper and brighter. Currently, consumers can still take advantage of compact fluorescent bulbs that offer dramatic savings in power consumption. Droste stated, “Energy conservation, recycling, and trying to live a ‘green lifestyle’ ate the key to out collective success.” Technological advances in solar panels, home power cubes, and electric cars will help, but seven billion people need to change also. “This song send a message of hope and that if we all work together we can truly change and protect our planet,” said Droste. It’s not just for us, but for future generations. “We are stewards of the planet and not the owners to pillage it’s resources blindly,” Droste concluded.

Interesting Facts:

The average house uses about 38 percent of its total annual energy use on heating

Producing 1 lb of bread requires 500 ga”ons of water

1 lb of hamburger or steak uses some 2,600 ga”ons of water

The single Save The Planet by Michael Droste is available through the Itunes, Amazon and other online music retailers. You can also download this song for free at SaveThePlanetSong.org http://www.SaveThePlanetSong.org

Norton Rose Group Relies on NextPlane Federation Cloud Service to Connect Global Network of Law Offices

Leave a comment

Cloud-based Federation Platform Connects Disparate UC Systems to Deliver Presence, IM, and Multi-User Chat to 38 Law Offices Around the Globe.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (April 20, 2012) — NextPlane, Inc., (http://www.nextplane.com) the market leader in cloud-based unified communications (UC) federation services , today announced that Norton Rose Group is now using the NextPlane Federation Cloud Service. Norton Rose, one of the top 10 law firms in the word with 2,500 lawyers and 38 offices, has adopted NextPlane’s Federation-as-a-Service (FaaS) to link UC platforms in London, Australia, Canada, and South Africa. By adopting NextPlane Federation Cloud Service, Norton Rose can maintain disparate UC platforms in regional offices and still support all common UC services including standard presence, custom status, enhanced presence, instant messaging, and multi-user chat.

As part of its global expansion, Norton Rose LLP merged with Deacons, one of the largest law firms in Australia, to form the Norton Rose Group. To facilitate the new integrated law practice, Norton Rose Group had to find a means to connect the WebEx Connect UC service being used in LLP with the Microsoft OCS platform being used in Australia. Rather than forcing the different offices to change to a common platform, Norton Rose Group opted to license NextPlane’s Federation Cloud to federate UC communications between the different systems. Within two weeks of signing NextPlane as its federation provider, Norton Rose had an integrated UC system up and running.

“When managing communications for a global law firm having integrated presence and IM is crucial, particularly given the time differences between offices,” said Jason Berwick, Innovation Analyst for Norton Rose Group. “Adopting NextPlane as our federation partner eliminated the need to find a common UC service. It was like starting with a blank sheet of paper. We made a couple of DNS changes and we were good to go, and the entire process took less than two weeks.”

The NextPlane Federation Cloud Service enables disparate UC platforms to federate without any upfront capital expense. The Federation Cloud solution can federate users on Microsoft Lync 2010, OCS 2007 R2, OCS 2007 R1, and LCS 2005 environments seamlessly and securely with colleagues on IBM Sametime, Cisco CUPS, WebEx Connect, and Jabber XCP, Jive OpenFire, and Google Apps. It also eliminates the need to maintain multiple address domains, since the Federation Cloud Service does the translation so all users appear to be on one UC platform.

“Norton Rose is the ideal proving ground for the benefits of our Federation Cloud solution,” said Farzin Shahidi, CEO of NextPlane. “Our Federation Cloud Service is ideal for companies in transition, providing ongoing UC support during a merger or acquisition, and we support all the core UC capabilities across multiple platforms as though they were native services. Norton Rose has demonstrated that NextPlane’s Federation Cloud is quick to deploy, seamless, reliable, and scalable to meet any requirement.”

As the Norton Rose Group continues to expand, it relies on NextPlane to federate UC services. In addition to establishing Norton Rose Australia, the firm also has merged with Ogilvy Renault and Denys Reitz to form Norton Rose Canada LLP and Norton Rose South Africa. Berwick’s team now has a simple process for federating UC with any organization on almost any UC platform, either from UC connections in the office or from an iPad, iPhone, PC, or Web-connected device.

About NextPlane, Inc.

NextPlane offers enterprise-class Federation as a Service (FaaS) solutions for unified communications (UC) platforms, seamlessly federating Microsoft Lync 2010, OCS 2007 R2, OCS 2007 and LCS 2005, IBM Sametime, Cisco Jabber XCP, Cisco Unified Presence Server 8.x, Cisco WebEx Connect, Jive OpenFire, and Google Apps. Using NextPlane Federation Cloud service, organizations can connect users from different companies regardless of underlying UC platforms – with shared presence, instant messaging, multi-user chat, voice, video, and other features – as if they are on the same platform.

NextPlane offers an ideal solution for companies migrating from one UC platform to another, or to integrate different legacy platforms following a company merger or a new contract or partnership. NextPlane even supports domain sharing, allowing two or more UC platforms to federate internally and externally using the same domain name.

DMC and Luxury Tour Company in Vietnam Benefit from the Internet

Leave a comment

Luxury Travel Vietnam is one of premier luxury travel and tour operator in Asia and benefits from the internet and grows a double digit year on year since 2004.

Hanoi, Vietnam, April 20, 2012 — Luxury Travel Vietnam is one of premier luxury travel and tour operator in Asia and benefits from the internet and grows a double digit year on year since 2004.

During the past decades, the internet has become an indispensable part of modern life, bringing with it the commodity to enable consumers to research and purchase a wide range of products in the comfort of their homes and offices.

One of the industries most affected by this trend is the tourism industry, which more than any takes advantage of the internet’s capability to overcome distance and borders and makes it possible to effect purchases directly between Service Providers in the desired destinations and geographically distant clients.

In 2008, 70% of people search on the internet before travel according to double click and travel sales booked online will reach $105 billion, up 12% from 2007, according to latest eMarketer statistics.

However, this increase is lower than has been expected. The latest trend is distant from just adding standardized travel products such as accommodation and tours by booking online in a highly impersonal process. Instead, Jeff Grau, senior analyst at eMarketer observes a “renewed appreciation for the expertise and personalized services offered by traditional travel agents.”

With the current economic crisis and talks of a recession just around the corner, holidaymakers are going online to book with local suppliers. Representative Lee, says that Luxury Travel Vietnam provides speed, convenience and easy access to information – exactly what contemporary tourists need in this current climate, even if it is last-minute.

Luxury Travel Company website has been voted as top B2C websites in Vietnam in 2008. These 10 websites are TRUSTMARK of Vietnam on the Internet, Trustvn, which is a member of ATA (Asia Pacific Trustmark Alliance).

Luxury Travel’s clients can research packages, consult travel specialists knowledge, have them create an individual and unique travel package for them, and book their full travel service and make the money transaction all over the internet on http://luxurytravelvietnam.com

As the first online company in Vietnam to specialize in upscale travel, Luxury Travel Vietnam was established in 2004 by experienced tourist industry professionals.

“With internet, we have more customers; we provide high tech or high touch service even in the last minute. If a group or family needs information to book last-minute tours, we will reply within 24 hours, including Sundays and public holidays. Our clients are mainly foreign and Vietnamese tourists who are Internet-savvy. ” admits Ha.
