In 2007 I rekindled that fire and started writing articles, short stories and poetry as a hobby,” says Aiken.

Continuing, “After winning a poetry competition and seeing many of my short stories rank #1 in their respective categories, I decided to allow this past-time to blossom into a new and exciting writing career. I’m doing what I enjoy-writing and helping others explore the Bible!”

Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Edgar Perez’s Knightmare on Wall Street Step up Top Marketing in 2013

Edgar Perez, Author, The Speed Traders, and Course Director, The Speed Traders Workshop, Proudly Introduces Knightmare on Wall Street, The Rise and Fall of Knight Capital and the Biggest Risk for Financial Markets, a Behind-the-scenes Look at Knight Capital’s 17 years of Tumultuous Existence as an Independent Company.

New York, NY, USA (December 23, 2013) — Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber both appealed to a wide audience of tweens and their parents. As indicated by Business Insider, benefitting from the Disney marketing machine, Cyrus was Disney TV character Hannah Montana, a regular singer on the Disney channel, a concert performer that recorded albums, and the namesake of the a clothing line launched by Disney in 2007; what worked for the Hannah Montana crowd was not going to work for 20 somethings. The target audience, or lock, had changed so Miley needed to come up with a new edgier image, or key, to remain relevant.

Justin Bieber’s mop-top silky blond hair and boyish smile became his signature, and it worked really well with his target audience, tweens and parents who preferred their kids emulate the wholesome, innocent-looking Bieber over the other choices in the pop world. Similar to Miley, as he approached 20 and his loyal fans grew with him, he needed a new image to fit his changing audience.

Neither of them could ever go back to being cute 15 and 16 year olds again. The best they could do was go after an older, edgier audience and keep their PR machines going. Knightmare on Wall Street, Mr. Edgar Perez’s latest book, a thrilling minute-by-minute account of the terrifying hours following Knight Capital’s August 1, 2012 trading debacle, followed the same marketing philosophy by after his first book, The Speed Traders.

Knight Capital announced a staggering loss of $440 million, after issuing an unprecedented number of erroneous orders into the market, at 9:30 A.M. on August 1, 2012, due to an error in installing new software. What followed after this shocking announcement were several rounds of desperate conversations with a number of vulture players who had smelled opportunity and were readying themselves to pick up bargain-priced pieces. On August 6, 2012, CEO Thomas Joyce confirmed that Knight Capital had struck a deal with Jefferies, TD Ameritrade, Blackstone, GETCO, Stephens, and Stifel Financial, staving off collapse days after the trading mishap. While Knight Capital was back in the game, its limping recovery quickly prompted hungry competitors to bid for the entire company. On December 19, 2012, the board decided to accept an acquisition proposal from GETCO rather than Virtu Financial. For GETCO, acquiring Knight Capital represented a gigantic fast forward step. For Knight Capital, it was the end of its wild ride as an independent entity.

New Product Enclosure: SmartTOP Convertible Top Controllers for Mercedes-Benz SLK and SL by Mods4cars

The add-on SmartTOP Convertible Top modules offered by automotive aftermarket electronics specialist Mods4cars for the Mercedes-Benz SLK and SL roadsters now come standard with the new, exclusive Mods4cars product enclosure. The appearance of the module has been completely revamped to be slimmer and better suited for the purpose. Two LEDs simplify the installation and show the current status. After installing the kit it is possible to operate the top with convenient “one-touch” operation while driving at slow speeds and fully automatically from the original factory remote fob.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), December 23rd, 2013 — The outfit Mods4cars has completely redesigned the appearance of their signature product, the SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller. Effective immediately all shipped kits for Mercedes-Benz SLK and SL now sport the exclusive, custom designed slim-line enclosure. Thanks to its smaller size the module can be installed in even tighter spaces in the car. Due to less plastic and no screws being used, the new design is also more eco-friendly.

With the SmartTOP add-on kit installed, owners of the SLK and SL class convertibles can open or close the top fully automatically from the factory remote key fob. A quick push button combination is all that is needed to start the operation. No changes need to be made to the key fobs. From the center console switch the top can be lowered or raised with one-touch convenience and while the car is moving at slow speeds. It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch. This is a real time saver.

“With days getting shorter it is now more than ever enjoyable to benefit from the last rays of sunlight for the top-down experience. For our customers it’s a breeze. Thanks to the SmartTOP module all they need to do is tap the switch briefly to bring the top down. Once the sun begins to set, another quick tap brings the top back up, no need to pull over and keep holding that switch.” says PR-Manager Sven Tornow.

Apart from these main features each SmartTOP product comes with a host of bonus features to make the roadster lifestyle more enjoyable. On Mercedes SLK R171 and R172 it is possible to raise the small rear windows while the top is down. It is possible to activate an extended mode which will not interrupt an ongoing top operation when starting or stopping the engine. All models dramatically increase the range of the remote operation by using RF instead of IR signals and make it possible to activate the top from a long distance. All features are individually programmable and each module comes with a main switch to temporarily disable the entire product while retaining all user configurable settings.

“The names Mods4cars and SmartTOP stand for innovation. We continuously work on bringing new features and strive to make installation as simple as possible for our customers.” Sven Tornow continues. All modules come with custom made wiring adapters and harnesses that allow a quick and simple connection to the car electronics. The new enclosure comes with two LEDs which show current status or trouble codes. Each module also comes equipped with a standard USB port which allows firmware updates to be applied, all of which are available online free of charge.

SmartTOP modules are available for Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo. Almost all modern convertibles and roadsters are supported. SmartTOP kits are available for the following Mercedes-Benz models: SLK (R170, R171, R172), SL (R129, R230, R231), E-Class Convertible and CLK Convertible.

The kit for Mercedes SLK and SL is available from 249 Euros + tax.

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 Las Vegas 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.

Shah Peerally, rated Young Outstanding Immigration lawyers in Northern California

The 2013 list of top rated attorneys in CA as published in the 08, 2013 issue of San Francisco Magazine includes Shah Peerally. This distinction is given to only a very small percentage of attorneys each year.

Newark, CA, December 22, 2013 – Shah Peerally, is a Newark, California based attorney practicing immigration law. Shah has seen tremendous growth in his career beginning with humble beginnings to becoming one of the most sought after attorney’s in Bay area. More than his professional qualifications, what distinguishes him from other lawyers in this field is his genuine compassion for people and his ability to cut across barriers and make them feel that there is hope for them.

Shah has constantly fought for the rights of immigrants and has tried to help them in various ways possible, whether it is through free legal clinics in churches, mosques or temples or talking to people through his law show on radio. Moreover his background as an immigrant himself makes him identify with the likes of others in similar position as he had been.

Shah thinks he is best defined as ‘street smart’ and has learnt more on the job than from any course. His genuine concern shows in the way he interacts with people and this has earned him not only respect but love from the immigrant community. In an attempt to educate people and make them aware of their rights and give them a sense of identification, Shah has invested in the Shah films which makes socially conscious films that talk of the problems of immigrants and also provides them solutions to a certain extent.

His dedication and passion for his work have been recognized on various podiums and Avvo, the national attorney rating service has rated him as 10/10 which is their highest rating level reserved for the best attorneys.

Shah Peerally, was born on in Mauritius, and attended the Royal College of Curepipe in Mauritius. Having worked with different corporations in Mauritius, Shah then moved to the United States where he and obtained his Juris Doctorate degree from New College School of Law, in San Francisco, California. He subsequently gained admission to the California State Bar too. Over the next few years, he began building his base in the legal fraternity by working in avenues such as litigation and business law for well known law firm of McNichols Randick O’Dea & Tooliatos LLP, in Pleasanton, California.

At a later stage, Shah joined the Law Offices of Virender Goswami as a supervising attorney in business and employment immigration. He was also appointed as attorney of counsel for the Immigration law offices of Minter and Ahmad in Fremont, California. Throughout the journey, Shah nursed the ambition of having his own law firm and in 2005; he founded the Law Offices of Shah Peerally. Today he is the founder and managing attorney of Shah Peerally Law Group PC, a professional corporation and under his capability the firm has seen the highest pinnacles of success.

Shah holds memberships in the State Bar of California, American Bar Association (ABA) and the American Immigration Lawyers Association, National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA), and International Association of Professional Debt Arbitrators (IAPDA). Shah is also admitted in the Northern Federal District Court, Eastern Federal District Court of California and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Apart from his legal work, the Shah Peerally name has been associated with a lot of pro bono work that he has done. In fact whenever there has been a crisis for the immigrant community, the Shah Peerally name has been the foremost in terms of handling the crisis in an efficient and fast manner, so that the chances of the immigrants being effected is minimum.

Shah’s activities have been geared towards helping people in spreading of awareness regarding Immigration laws and their capabilities and use as far as immigrants are concerned. For this role of his in society, he has often been a part of the expert legal analysts for many TV networks such as NDTV, Times Now and Sitarree TV. In collaboration with this there has been coverage about his work in newspapers such as San Jose Mercury News, Oakland Tribune, US Fiji Times, Mauritius Le Quotidien, Movers & Shakers and other prominent international media both print and online. He also hosts weekly legal radio shows on KLOK 1170 AM.

For his passionate and dedicated work, towards conducting immigration related workshops Shah has been commended by House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Congresswoman Barbara Lee too. Shah has been a prominent activist for various immigrant communities and has always fought for their rights in whatever capacities that he could. Also he has been a regular participant in lectures and free legal clinics across the nation.

In what is an extremely rewarding acknowledgement for his work, Shah has been selected as a rising star of Northern California by Superlawyers.com. Added to this, 2013 has seen Shah been bestowed with the honor of being selected as one of the ‘Young Outstanding Lawyers of Northern California’. This is a reflection of not only of his own caliber but that of his entire firm. In fact the attorneys of the Shah Peerally law group have been featured as legal experts on major international TV networks such as NDTV and Times Now for guiding immigrants during major immigration crisis over the years.

The most interesting part about Shah Peerally’s career has been his diversification into different platforms that raise the issues of immigration. Now with his own film production house, he makes films that will be an eye opener to the masses on issues that have been particularly troublesome for the immigrants. These films are an extension of his voice and concern as a lawyer determined to get justice for the immigrants to the US and to fight for their cause while also propagating for better immigration reforms. And in that Mr.Peerally’s work is extremely futuristic and aimed at a basic promotion of the interests of all sorts of voices across the globe.

Bryant & Stratton College Online Hosts Webinar: What Type of Resume is Best?

January 10 webinar will teach job seekers about the different types of resume formats, how to know when to use them and practical resume tips

Buffalo, NY, December 20, 2013 – The average recruiter spends about six seconds looking at a single resume, according to a study by The Ladders. That means job seekers have six seconds to highlight their skills and expertise, making the format of a resume as important as the content. For that reason, Bryant & Stratton College Online announced today a new session in its career information webinar series titled “What Type of Resume is Best for You?” The webinar will be held on Friday, January 10 from noon to 1 p.m. EST.

During the “What Type of Resume is Best for You?” webinar, attendees will learn practical tips and advice to improve their resume. Some of the topics covered in the webinar will include:

* The difference between chronological, functional, skills based and combination resumes

* When to use each type of resume

* How to take a resume from responsibility-focused to success-focused

* Dos and Don’ts of resume writing

The webinar will be led by Cindy Carpenter and Albanitza Mayoliz who handle recruiting at Verizon for the Call Center and Retail Sales Channel, respectively. Ms. Carpenter and Ms. Mayoliz are responsible for reviewing applications and qualifications, identifying quality candidates, coordinating interviews, extending offers and on boarding new hires. Both women are experienced recruiters with extensive knowledge in recruiting practices, talent acquisition, on boarding, hiring, career fairs, resume writing and career advancement and social media.

“There is an art to putting together a resume that most job seekers underestimate. A typical recruiter may have to sort through hundreds, or even thousands, of resumes to fill a position. A strong resume needs to communicate quickly and concisely why a job seeker deserves to be considered for a position. To do that sometimes requires deviating from the standard chronological format,” said Ms. Carpenter.

The “What Type of Resume is Best for You?” career information webinar is offered for free by Bryant & Stratton College Online and is open to current students, prospective students and others seeking information about how to write a resume. Those interested in attending are invited to register at http://online.bryantstratton.edu/webinar/.

“Career preparation is an integral part of what we provide students at Bryant & Stratton College Online.
