Hopeful Stories of Cancer Survivors Meant to Inspire

Book Sales to Benefit Fund that Makes Children Smile

Valley View, OH, February 16, 2011 — Motivated by a four-year-old relative who lost his battle to an aggressive brain tumor 20 years ago, lifelong salesman John Voso Jr. recently released a book he says is about “hope.”

Today’s Heroes, Surviving with Style, a compilation of stories from 23 cancer survivors, is meant to inspire people, said Voso, a Cleveland, Ohio native whose family was profoundly affected by the death of his nephew, Richie White, in 1991. Voso and his family continue to help others dealing with medical battles through the Richie White Pediatric Family Fund at the Cleveland Clinic, which will benefit from sales of Today’s Heroes. Voso said the mission of the Richie White fund is “Making Children Smile.” Each year, the fund pays for a summer picnic and Christmas party that bring great joy to families enduring the pain of sickness, the author said.

A former professional bowler who grew up in Cleveland’s working-class Collinwood neighborhood, Voso always wanted to write a book. Emotionally stirred by the many people he has met through the Richie White sponsored events, he decided to share the struggles and triumphs of cancer survivors. “It’s their story more than my story,” he said when describing Today’s Heroes. The people featured in the book range in age from 14 to 84 and live in several American states, including Ohio, Florida, Hawaii, Minnesota and Washington. Voso interviewed most of them and wrote their stories, but a few of the chapters are first-person accounts, he said. The author borrowed the “Surviving with Style” tag line from ovarian cancer survivor Sheryl Stanowick, who developed Cancer Survivors with Style, a line of comfort products for chemotherapy patients.

An alumnus of St. Joseph High School, Voso is a senior vice president and agency relations manager at Old Republic National Title Insurance Co. He lives in Sagamore Hills, Ohio with his wife, Debbie, and has three children Angela, 24, John, 21, and Deanna, 16. He continues to bowl in a men’s league and is compiling an Italian cookbook featuring his favorite dishes that he plans to publish in the future.

Shared and monitored shipping has reduced shipping costs and delivery time. Banks effect funds transfer in hours. Geographical alignments have changed considerably since and global markets are just an email away.

Beyond is where people are yearning for quality products, specially originated from specialty locale. Beyond is where similar products are imported and retailed at high costs only affordable to selective customers. Beyond is waiting to be discovered and serviced.

Millions of people with purses full, desire for original products from traditional regions. Trust in quality and standards have not diminished; on the other hand prices with exorbitant mark-ups have diminished consumer interests.

GuardTime and ftopia Deliver First Provably Secure Cloud Collaboration Service

Business teams can securely store and share files with proof that their data remains intact.

Singapore, February 15, 2011 — GuardTime, creator of the patented Keyless Signature™ technology used to validate the world’s data, and ftopia, a global provider of cloud-based data collaboration and storage services, today announced apartnership that enables businesses to securely share their files without relying on trust as a means to validate the integrity of their data.

GuardTime’s Keyless Signature technology provides proof of signing authority, time of the signature, and lifelong integrity for data stored in the cloud or in transit between business collaborators.

* Securely store their data online with undeniable proof of integrity, eliminating the need to rely on trust
* Safely share and synchronize their content with other people, providing evidence that the content has not been changed since it was lastshared

Furthermore, with the GuardTimeKeyless Signature by its side, the proof of integrity follows the data wherever it goes, even when shared outside anftopiasecure room.”

Plug and Play Harness for the Peugeot 308 CC Convertible-Module

Starting immediately, the convertible module for the Peugeot 308 CC will include a Plug N Play harness. This new harness allows for a quick and easy installation of the convertible module.

Ocean, NJ, February 12th, 2011 — The Mods4cars SmartTOP convertible module for the Peugeot 308CC is now available with a Plug N Play harness. This harness is a custom development that allows easier and faster installation of the convertible module without any splicing into the OEM wiring.

“The Plug N Play harness allows for an easy way to integrate the convertible module with the vehicle electronics system”, explains PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “Through this innovation, any person can install the convertible module with ease allowing everyone to enjoy the comfort and functions of the product.” Sven Tornow further added.

The convertible module allows the opening and closing of the convertible top by utilizing the original vehicle key, even from a distance. The original key does not have to be modified or programmed. Furthermore, it is possible to activate (open/close) the convertible top while in motion up to a speed of 40km/h. The One-Touch functionality enables the top to engage through a quick push of the convertible button and circumvents the need to hold the convertible button to complete the cycle. This allows for the car to be used top-down more often.

This mods4cars product also enables the convertible top to complete the open or close cycle after the vehicle has been turned off. Added features such as individual programming of the module allow it to be completely deactivated, if needed. A standard USB cable can be utilized to update the firmware or program the functions of the module on a PC. All firmware updates are free of charge.

However, it is not just Peugeot owners who benefit from SmartTOP controllers. Mods4cars supplies its SmartTOP comfort controller for almost all convertible and roadster models from a wide variety of manufacturers, including Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and Volkswagen.

The Peugeot 308 CC convertible module is available for 249 Euro + 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 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.

GroupFlier Offers First Curated Content for SMS Text Messaging

Receive tweets and news about Egyptian Youth Movement activist Wael Ghonim.

Bethesda, MD, February 14, 2011 — Group texting service GroupFlier ( http://www.groupflier.com ) today announced the release of the industry’s first curated text messaging groups.

The first group is dedicated to providing timely information and tweets from Wael Ghonim, the 30-year old Egyptian activist, Google executive and face of the Egyptian pro-democracy youth movement.

“Our users drove us here,” said Morris Panner, CEO of GroupFlier. “They use our service to group text and talk about important issues. They told us they wished they had a good way to get clear information about important news events as they unfold.”

“They all love Twitter and Facebook, but to receive hundreds of SMS texts on the phone can be overwhelming. We stepped in and are providing that curated content. We learned a lot about what type of content people want to receive via SMS.”

The text messaging group dubbed “Egypt4Peace” will follow the tweets made by Egyptian activist Wael Ghonim, the Google executive who survived 11 days in police custody blindfolded and without cause.

Wael Ghonim is one of the administrators behind Egypt’s most popular Facebook page, “We are Khaled Said,” that has served to mobilize the youth movement and helped organize thousands of protestors in Cairo’s Tahrir Square.

Although anyone can set up Twitter to follow SMS tweets, the GroupFlier option will not automate the sending of tweets indiscriminately. This curated service will screen for the most relevant tweets and news headlines that convey compelling information about the passion, plans, and convictions of Wael Ghonim and the youth movement.

The Egypt4Peace SMS group will also select tweets made by embedded reporters Dan Nolan of Al Jazeera English, New York Times’ Roger Cohen, and Sharif Kouddous, senior news producer for Democracy Now!

A free service, people can join Egypt4Peace in two different ways:

* Go to http://groupflier.com/join/Egypt4Peace
* Text Egypt4Peace to (617) 394-1386

GroupFlier CEO Morris Panner has been a long proponent of human rights, having been the founder of the Harvard Human Rights Journal. He is on the board of the Washington Office on Latin America, a leading human rights group for Latin America.

On Tuesday February 9th, Panner wrote an opinion piece, “Accelerating Change in Egypt,” which was published by the Washington Times: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/feb/8/accelerating-change-in-egypt/

TechCrunch featured this innovative service on Feb 10:

Inspired By #Egypt, GroupFlier Launches Curated Texting Groups

About Wael Ghonim:
Google’s director of marketing for the Middle East and Africa, Wael Ghonim received a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from Cairo University in 2004, and received a master’s degree in Business Administration cum laude from American University in Cairo in 2007. Wael is married to an American and his family home is in Dubai.

About GroupFlier:
GroupFlier’s mission is to empower clubs and associations of all types, through free group texting and content curation for SMS. The service is compatible with all cellphone devices and platforms, whether it be a BlackBerry, Android, iPhone or old Nokia, as well as supporting any service plans by AT&T, Verizon or a phone card. GroupFlier also offers an iPhone app for group creation. Soon to follow are more advanced iPhone, Android and RIM clients that will enable a richer information experience.
