Hardware Update: SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller for Nissan 370Z by Mods4cars

Leave a comment

The aftermarket SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller made by Mods4cars for the Nissan 370Z Roadster now ships with a new product enclosure. SmartTOP allows, among other things, the convenient one-touch operation of the convertible top while driving at slow speeds as well as remote control of the top from the original key fob.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), July 24th, 2015 — Automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars has upgraded the product enclosure for the SmartTOP add-on convertible top controller modules. Just in time for the convertible top season 2015 the module for the Nissan 370Z Roadster has received the new, custom designed enclosure. The new shape and size of the module is not only slimmer and more esthetic looks wise, it also makes installation a lot easier.

Due to the smaller size it can be mounted in tighter spaces in the car and two integrated LEDs indicate when the module was installed correctly. The new enclosure also uses a lot less plastic and no more screws. This makes the product more environmentally friendly overall.

The SmartTOP kits make using the convertible top easier and more fun. They allow drivers to open and close the top with one-touch convenience and while driving at slow speeds of up to 40 km/h (~28 mph). It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch for the duration of the operation. A quick tap is enough to start a full automatic open or close cycle.

Additionally it is possible to control the top from a distance, using just the original factory key fob remote. A quick key combination on the remote triggers automatic opening or closing of the top. Users can select if they want windows up or down after opening the top. No changes are needed to be made to the original fobs or receiver system.

Apart from these two main features SmartTOP comes with a few bonus features, all of which can be individually configured to taste. The windows can be controlled separately from the top by remote for example and all windows can be closed at once with the console switch.

A chirp feature is built in that can, if desired, give a short audible confirmation when locking or unlocking the car. Doors can be auto-locked while driving and hazard flashers can be activated during remote operation. An extended mode allows turning the engine on or off while the top continues to run and the entire module can be disabled temporarily, if needed, while retaining all user settings for when it is re-enabled later.

The kit comes with a plug-in-between wiring adapter for easy installation. The module itself is equipped with a USB port for configuration and firmware updates. Support software as well as firmware updates are available free of charge online.

Mods4cars has been offering SmartTOP kits since 2001. The following popular brands are supported: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and VW.

The SmartTOP kit for Nissan 370Z Roadster is available for 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.

Motivational Speaker Releases a Powerful Book on Positive Self Image

Leave a comment

Marilyn L. Donnellan has been on an amazing journey; from dealing with childhood bullying and verbal abuse to becoming an internationally published author and motivational speaker, and successful consultant to nonprofits.

Orlando, FL (USA), July 25th, 2015 — Marilyn L. Donnellan has been on an amazing journey; from dealing with childhood bullying and verbal abuse to becoming an internationally published author and motivational speaker, and successful consultant to nonprofits. But there’s a twist – she has achieved it all while fighting deep-seated feelings of ugliness and low self worth.

In this unique and powerful book, Two Faces of Me, Donnellan explores all the different aspects that make up each of our lives and our self-esteem. She wrote her newest book to inspire readers to focus on positive self-image and to understand our worth in God’s eyes.

“We need to learn not to desire to be something we’re not. I spent my entire life struggling to accept who I am. And, as I started to get older, I learned there is no manual to tell me how to age gracefully. I learned the hard way that I can’t base my sense of self-worth and image on appearance. I earned every aging wrinkle and lump, and I’m learning to cherish them as valuable parts of me,” stated Donnellan.

The motivation to write Two Faces of Me was initially to explain what happens when Donnellan’s character, Sophie, makes her appearance at workshops and conferences. Sophie has been a helpful object lesson for over 40 years, and in the book, Donnellan wanted to explain why Sophie has such an impact on people.

“The answer is we all have an inner Sophie in us,” said Donnellan, “and we tend to judge people on the way they look. But, as I thought about how I felt about myself at different times in my life, Sophie became a metaphor for many of my experiences. She has really become an example of how I struggled to build who I am without being false to the real me.”

Donnellan didn’t write Two Face of Me to share just her personal journey. Her goal was also to share Sophie’s journey and how people rarely make an effort to talk to her Sophie personality.

“I can count on one hand the number of people who have come up to Sophie and said, ‘Hello,’ states Donnellan. “Often, when I dress up as Sophie for church events, conferences or workshop she will be asked to leave. Even the best-hearted and spiritual people don’t know how to handle the Sophies of the world. People act as if Sophie can’t hear, see, and doesn’t have feelings. It’s like they don’t realize how they are treating her. I’ve learned so much about how people treat others by being Sophie.”

Two Faces of Me was a difficult book for Donnellan to write for a few reasons. The biggest one was being in the spotlight and sharing the raw truth of her personal life and her journey as Sophie with readers.

“Everything is told in Two Faces of Me – it’s an autobiography that will impart life-changing inspiration to those close to giving up or for anyone lacking self-confidence,” says Halo Publisher Lisa M. Umina.

Synopsis:
Emotionally damaged by childhood bullying and verbal abuse, M.L. Donnellan takes readers on a rocky journey. Struggling to find herself after an attempted suicide, Donnellan lives her life like an actress, pretending to be what she does not feel. Focused on a lifestyle of over achievement and trying to please others, it is only when she begins to comprehend her worth in God’s eyes that she is able to see herself as unique, valuable, gifted and beautiful.

What Readers Are Saying:
“Great transparency…easy to identify with…unique use of creativity to enhance message…provides answers.” Diane Hawkins, MA, President, Restoration in Christ Ministries.

“…a wonderful book…the reader hears the echoes of their own story and can choose to take steps towards healing through God’s mirror of truth.” Kimberly A. Hawkins, Dallas, TX.

You can purchase Two Faces of Me through Halo Publishing’s website (http://halopublishing.com), Amazon and other online bookstores. Available in Paperback and eBook.

Biography:
M.L. Donnellan, MS, is a motivational speaker, consultant to nonprofits, internationally published author, a wife, mother and grandmother. Her spiritual gifts are exhortation, administration and teaching. She is a graduate of Multnomah University, George Fox University and Atlantic Coast Theological Seminary, with degrees in Human Resources Management and Christian Administration, and a certificate in Biblical Studies.

Sri Lanka Pavilion To Showcase The Best Of Sri Lankan Tea At 3rd Edition Of “World Tea & Coffee Expo”™ 2015

Leave a comment

* Rising demand in India for tea from Sri Lanka spurs Sri Lanka Tea Board to set up an exclusive Pavilion at India’s only trade show dedicated to the Tea & Coffee sectors.

Mumbai, India, July 22, 2015 — With Indian consumption of Sri Lankan tea rising rapidly, the Sri Lanka Tea Board has reserved a special pavilion at the 3rd edition of World Tea & Coffee Expo (WTCE) 2015 being held at Mumbai, India’s commercial capital, from 1st Oct 2015 to 3rd Oct 2015. Under the aegis of the Sri Lanka Tea Board, a number of companies shall be showcasing various kinds of bulk and packet Tea with a view to increase bilateral trade with India. During the current year itself (i.e. 2015), Sri Lanka has exported more than 300 tonnes of Tea to India. Sri Lankan companies shall be displaying Ceylon Super Pekoe black tea, Ceylon green tea, White Tea, Ceylon Silver tip tea, Instant Tea and special types of tea for which Sri Lanka is famous.

According to Mr. Y.G.Wijeratne, Chairman, Sri Lanka Tea Board, “India has a large and growing consumer base with varied levels of income,making it a great market for all kinds of Tea. Our participation in WTCE 2015 will enable us to promote Sri Lankan companies in India at a dedicated trade fair which provides an opportunity to directly interact with Indian buyers, potential partners and government officials”

Although India is the second largest producer of tea in the world – because of its population size – it is also the 2ndlargest consumer of Tea. With changing lifestyles, large-scale urbanization and mushrooming of upscale cafes for both Tea & Coffee, demand for non traditional tea like Premium tea, green tea, white tea etc is growing at a whopping 20% annually. Due to shortage of high quality premium tea supply in India, Indian branded tea companies buy premium tea from Kenya and Sri Lanka.

The 3rd World Tea & Coffee Expo 2015 offers a platform, which promises to not only boost the Indian Tea and Coffee industry; but also strengthen relationships between India and the participating nations. In addition to a display of products, Vending Solutions, machineries, technologies and certifications from the entire gamut of the Hot beverage sector, additional activities at the Expo include: B2B match-making, Workshops & Championships, a High Level 2-day Conference by Industry leaders, academicians and policy makers, export/import guidance kiosks, Knowledge zone etc. The WTCE platform is utilized by many companies as a launching pad for new products.

Defining the vision behind the Expo, Ms Priti M Kapadia, Director, Sentinel Exhibitions Asia P Ltd, organizers of the expo, states, “The World Tea & Coffee Expo was launched in 2013 to offer an organized avenue for all the industry stakeholders to come together under a single roof for networking, business expansion and ideas exchange. The Expo shall emphasize the prospects of the Hot Beverage sector as also showcase technological innovations in this important sector.”

WTCE is supported by many eminent trade bodies including Tea Board of India (Govt. of India) and fulfils the need for an organized event for Tea & Coffee Companies in India to come together.

Garden City, Long Island, NY (July 20, 2015) — Eposeidon‘s KastKing® brand headquartered in Long Island, NY bested many notable contenders for a coveted Best of Show Award at the International Convention of Allied SportFishing Trades (ICAST).

More than 12,000 representatives from the global sportfishing industry were in Orlando to see the latest innovations in fishing tackle, gear, accessories, and apparel.

KastKing® offers three different Rack em Up fishing tackle management rod rack models; a 12 rod rack, a 12 rod fold-flat rack and a 24 rod rack. They are all patent applied for designs. MSRP for these innovative rust-free aluminum racks allow fishing rods to be stored in an upright position with minimal floor space.

Art Gallery Named Arturo Gonzalez Featured Artist

Leave a comment

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is very pleased to announce that Arturo Gonzalez is the gallery’s newest featured artist. He will now be promoted in the gallery’s artist showcase for the next 30 days.

Jupiter, FL, USA — Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is very pleased to announce that Arturo Gonzalez is the gallery’s newest featured artist. He will now be promoted in the gallery’s artist showcase for the next 30 days.

Arturo Gonzalez was born in Chicago, IL and he still resides in the area today. It wasn’t until 2010 that Arturo discovered a passion for photography.

The positive feedback from his friends helped fuel his growing love of photography. Arturo then upgraded his camera gear to a Nikon DSLR and he started to visit places he had only dreamed of including Hawaii, London, Rome, Paris, and Barcelona.

For Arturo, traveling and photography made the perfect combination. He explains, “You are exposed to many things you don’t see at home and photography allows you to capture those memories. In essence, you become a storyteller and photography becomes the medium you tell the story in. The internet allows the story to reach millions if you desire.”

Cityscapes and landscapes are Arturo’s favorite themes to capture in photography. Chicago is one of the best cities for people to capture beautiful cityscape photos. The national parks in the USA are second to none for landscape photography. An area that Arturo would like to delve into in the future is astrophotography. Arturo’s photography collection can be found at https://www.flickr.com/photos/91761878@N08/sets and you can see the full article https://www.lightspacetime.com/artist-showcase/artist-showcase-arturo-gonzalez.

Kwame Binea Shakedown to Release

Leave a comment

Self-Titled Debut EP on July 16, 2015

New York, NY, July 15, 2015 – Harlem-based roots rock songwriter/singer Kwame Binea, who fronts the Kwame Binea Shakedown, has announced the worldwide digital release of the group’s debut and self-titled EP on Tuesday, July 17, 2015 via CDbaby.com and all their major digital distribution partners including iTunes and Amazon.com.

“Kwame Binea Shakedown” features four tracks including the group’s first single “Let Go” (released in early April), their most recent single, “Hang On” (released in mid-June) and “Little Lady” and “Waiting,” which have never been released. Musically, the EP showcases Binea’s “roots rock” lineage, which is a fusion of rhythmic rock n’ roll, ample dosages of infectious funk, silky soul, screaming blues and just a smidgeon of reggae and funk.

All the songs were written and produced by Binea and guitarist Justin Wilcox for Binea’s indie imprint, Pelopos Entertainment Group. The EP was co-produced by Jerry Ramos and the Shakedown Band. The Shakedown band comprises; Binea on lead vocals, guitarist’s Justin Wilcox and Art Vanterpool, drummer Medley Shabazz, bassist Phil Bass, Daron Wright on keyboards, Kengo Yamada and Michael Quigley on saxophone, Brian Varneke on trumpet and guest background vocalist’s Dietrice Bolden and Jindai Joseph. The EP was recorded at SST Studios, Kaleidscope Studios and Mercury Studios, all located in New Jersey.

Binea and Wilcox have been intermittingly writing, recording and performing the songs over the past several years. “We’ve always viewed ourselves primarily as a live band” explained Kwame. “As writers, we’re fueled by how our fans and audiences react to our songs. We take that energy and feedback back into the studio and do our best to channel it into the songs we decide to record. This EP means a lot to us because it’s driven by all the love and positivity our fans keep giving us. It’s our way of expressing our appreciation and thanks for all their inspiration and support,” he added.

Binea, grew up splitting time in West London (his birth place) and in his native origins, Ghana. He later moved to Cherry Hill, NJ as a teenager where he started to unearth his artistic aspirations as a burgeoning songwriter/singer/guitarist. While in college he teamed up with guitarist/vocalist Justin Wilcox as a duo, which became the nucleus that spawned the rock/funk collective Kwame Binea Shakedown in Harlem, NY (2011). Over the past several years they have built a legion of loyal fans performing at most of the city’s most noted music venues including Joe’s Pub, Arlene Grocery, Rockwood Music Hall and Brooklyn Bowl, to name just a few.
