The Biggest Little Brother Features an Immigrant Family in a Loving, Inclusive Story

Leave a comment

An only child having to adjust to a new baby is a familiar tale; however, what happens when a new, older, brother comes into the family? Sowa is the oldest sibling and is used to helping his Mom and Dad and his baby sister Naiya.

San Antonio, TX (USA), September 24th, 2016 — An only child having to adjust to a new baby is a familiar tale; however, what happens when a new, older, brother comes into the family? Sowa is the oldest sibling and is used to helping his Mom and Dad and his baby sister Naiya. But when his big brother, Hindo, moves from Sierra Leone to live with them in Atlanta he suddenly realizes that he isn’t the oldest anymore. First time children’s author Aminata Jalloh, knows a little bit about how that feels having experienced a similar situation in her young life.

“As I looked at children’s literature for a story that would examine the changes siblings face when an immigrant relative moves in, I realized there wasn’t anything out there that really addresses those challenges,” said Aminata Jalloh. “I wanted to create a story that lovingly addresses some of the differences immigrant families face while still offering a book children would want to read.”

The Biggest Little Brother is exactly that; offering a main character in Sowa that wants to be helpful and is so excited to welcome this new member of the family. His desire to be a sibling leader and teacher is momentarily shaken when he realizes that he is no longer the big brother in the family.

“In writing this book my desire was to portray a “non-traditional” family structure in a way that will resonate with any young child,” said Jalloh. “I also hope to provide reading material that reflects the changing faces and experiences of the American family.”

I just love this story. Aminata has created characters that are honest and easy to relate with. I look forward to more stories with this same family.

While The Biggest Little Brother is her first book, Jalloh is currently writing at least two more children’s stories that will continue the saga of Sowa and his siblings. In the meantime, The Biggest Little Brother, is now available from Amazon for $15.95

Can People Change? These Rough Bikers, Ex-cons, Addicts Did Through Accepting Jesus Christ As Their Savior

Bible Bikers: Live Ridin’ on the Road to Redemption offers hope to those who have struggled with crime, addiction, and prison.

Los Angeles, CA (USA), September 15th, 2016 — Bible Bikers: Live Ridin’ on the Road to Redemption offers hope to those who have struggled with crime, addiction, and prison. Members of the Live Ride Ministry and Motorcycle Club share their testimonies about their hard lives, re-conversion and baptism into Christianity, and how they are moving forward, one step at a time, to a clean, sober, and Christian life, under the guidance of Pastor Rick Fish, Sr., himself a biker with a checkered past who has reformed, been ordained, and now leads others onto the road to redemption. Michael Gotz believes these messages are so important that he recorded the testimonies verbatim, with no editorial comment. “These guys tell it best in their own words, and I wrote it down just as they said them,” said author Michael Gotz. “I am overwhelmed by the miracle that are these guys, and I want to share with those who need encouragement or enjoy validation of their Christian beliefs. One reader reviewed this book by saying: “This is a unique book that is inspiring, courageous and down to earth. Its theme is that it is possible for any of us to overcome great difficulties and character defects, if we are only willing to do so and have the bravery and courage to try.” Well, these guys try, and we follow them doing good works, abstaining from drinking, drugs, and crime, and being available to Hells Angels and other bikers who seek them out for help.

About Michael Gotz:
Michael Gotz lives in Culver City, California. He is retired from the air freight industry and is currently a partner in the Contact Photo Lab, a fine arts retouching, printing, and film darkroom business in the Los Angeles Brewery art colony. He holds a B.A. degree in political science from UCLA and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Chinese studies from UC Berkeley. He is always looking for inspiring projects such as this one, where he can learn both specific and universal lessons. For instance, on this project he has learned that an important aspect of belief in someone or something is that the object of the belief also believes back in the believer, e.g., if you believe in Jesus, Jesus will believe in you. Just this one example can provide the basis, for example, in employer-employee relations: if workers believe in the company’s goals and objectives, to have a motivated workforce the company must believe in the employee’s abilities and motivations. There are many other examples of how religious principles can translate into universal secular application. Michael can be contacted at: michael@michaelgotzmedia.com

SmartTOP Additional Top Control for Mercedes-Benz SLC Roadster Now Available

Leave a comment

The retrofit SmartTOP roof control from the manufacturer Mods4cars is now available for the new Mercedes-Benz SLC Roadster. It allows the opening and closing of the convertible top while driving, using short keystrokes. In addition, the roof can be operated from afar via the original vehicle keys.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), September 1st, 2016 — The SmartTOP additional roof control from the company Mods4cars for the Mercedes-Benz SLC Roadster is now available. The retrofit roof module makes for greater drive comfort with its smart function. With it, you are able to open the convertible top via the original remote control from a distance. The existing vehicle key does not need to be changed for this.

In addition, the roof can be operated while driving up to a speed of 60 km/h. The One-Touch function ensures that a quick tap of the top button is enough to set the automatic convertible top motion into transition. Eliminating the need for stopping and the cumbersome continuous pressing.

“We are pleased that we can offer all owners of the new SLC our smart roof control after such a short time and with the benefits of the numerous additional functions.” explains PR spokesman, Sven Tornow. The latest development makes it possible, in addition to the two main functions, to roll up the rear windows with the top down.

Furthermore, all windows can be opened and closed separately via the remote control from outside the vehicle. As confirmation of the central locking, a short beep signal will sound. It is also possible to activate the hazard warning lights during the tops folding movement. For vehicles with the Keyless Go package, the roof top can be opened and closed by triple touching a door knob.

Even in the most recent top control made by Mods4cars, all functions are programmable to your personal wishes. The module can be deactivated completely. When starting and stopping the engine, the current top movement will not be interrupted. Thanks to a standard USB port, the SmartTOP convertible controller can be configured on the PC and available free software updates installed. The supplied plug-n-play harness also ensures for a very easy retrofit.

SmartTOP roof modules are available for the following brands: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo. The comfort extension for the SLC Roadster is now available for 269.00 Euro + tax.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 from 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.

“The Girl Who Tried to Catch the Moon” Inspires Young Readers to Pursue Their Dreams

Leave a comment

First time author, Ashby Bland, brilliantly captures the idea of working toward a goal with a simple, yet profound voice.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL (USA), August 27th, 2016 — You’ve heard the quote “if at first you don’t succeed, try-try again.” The main character in this new children’s picture, “The Girl Who Tried to Catch the Moon” brings the idea of being persistent to life. First time author, Ashby Bland, brilliantly captures the idea of working toward a goal with a simple, yet profound voice.

“I want young readers to have the confidence to go for their dreams,” said Ashby Bland, author and recently enrolled freshman at Columbia University. “Too many are quick to tell people they can’t do something; this book was written to encourage readers to set their goals and then persistently work towards achieving them.”

Ms. Bland first penned “The Girl Who Tried to Catch” the Moon when she was just four years old. Over the years she would stumble upon the story and make little refinements but the message always stayed the same. “You can do anything you put your mind to,” said Bland.

People discouraged Ms. Bland from applying to Columbia University, number four on the list of most difficult universities to get into according to the 2016 Hardest to Get survey which ranks 1,349 colleges based on acceptance rates. However, she had a goal of attending college there and set her sights on being accepted. She begins her freshman year this fall where she is studying Creating Writing.

Ms. Bland has been writing short stories, poems and novels since her early childhood and hopes that her first book, “The Girl Who Tried to Catch the Moon” is the start of a series of stories about girls and boys who try different things in their life.

“I know that young readers will be captivated by the colorful illustrations that accompany this inspiring tale,” said Lisa Umina, founder and publisher of Halo Publishing International. “Ashby has written a wonderful story that will help children see that, even if a dream seems impossible, like catching the moon, if you try hard enough you just might be successful.”

“I am excited to see this story come to life and be available for children all over,” said Bland. “I hope young readers are encouraged by this story of having a dream, working hard, overcoming obstacles, and problem solving to eventually see your dream become a reality.”

Certainly for Ms. Bland, this delightful story is a testament to her persistence, problem solving skills and ultimate success.

“The Girl Who Tried to Catch the Moon” is available in hard cover for $18.95 through:
Halo Publishing – http://halopublishing.com/1a-c/ashby-bland.html#the-girl-who-tried-to-catch-the-moon

Newly Released Dagah: The Great Fish is a Whale of a Tale!

Leave a comment

Author Victoria McCarty Pens a Heartfelt Children’s Story of Faith and Trust.

Baltimore, MD (USA), August 26th, 2016 — We are familiar with the story of Jonah, a Bible story of epic proportions told of a man who is swallowed whole by a whale. But have we ever considered the story from the whale’s point of view? “Dagah: The Great Fish” is just that, the tale of a great whale who was called upon by God to participate in a mission far greater than he could have imagined.

“When my friend Inky asked the question – what did the whale think – it inspired me to create a colorful children’s book that would explore the relationship the fish had with God and how he came to swallow Jonah,” said author Victoria McCarty. “The question was asked jokingly but Inky really helped me delve into the story further and imagine what it would be like to be asked to do something far outside our comfort zone. “Dagah: The Great Fish” explores that experience. How do we respond when we are asked to do something we are sure we cannot.

In the story “Dagah: The Great Fish”, the main character is swimming along happily when he hears a voice that asks him to leave the comforts of home, food, and shelter and travel into the cold, dark waters of the unknown. Through a strong faith and trust in God, Dagah travels into a variety of interesting places and plays a major role in the story of Jonah, a simple man that God is also used for far greater good.

“Dagah: The Great Fish” is Victoria’s own experience in being asked to do something out of the norm. Prior to this story, Victoria has enjoyed writing but it was a very private endeavor. However, with “Dagah: The Great Fish” she felt called upon to create a story of faith and share it with the world.

“My hope is that “Dagah: The Great Fish” will resonate with young readers,” said McCarty. “Children have all experienced times when teachers, parents and other adults in their life have asked them to do something they felt was too difficult. Hopefully “Dagah: The Great Fish” will teach them that through faith and trust in God, who is always at their side offering support and comfort, they can accomplish great things.”

“Not only is this a wonderful children’s story,” said Lisa Umina, founder and publisher of Halo Publishing International, “but it is also a tale that will inspire parents to seek out more information about Jonah and other stories in the Bible that focus on God’s love and the importance of trusting in Him.”

Victoria’s story is accompanied by the beautiful art of her sister, Sarah Holtsberg, who is currently attending college. Her drawings bring the story of Dagah to life.

“Dagah: The Great Fish” is available through Halo Publishing as well as Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

About Victoria McCarty:
Victoria McCarty is an art teacher, writer and active participant in children’s ministry in rural Carroll County, Maryland. She resides with her husband, dog, and cat focusing on church activities and creating studio artwork. Sharing God’s word in creative ways is one of Victoria’s passions. “Dagah: The Great Fish” is her first published work.

SmartTOP Add-On Convertible Top Controller for Porsche Boxster 981 Gets Design Upgrade

Leave a comment

Aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars has revamped the design of their SmartTOP Convertible Top Controllers. Effective immediately the kit for the Porsche Boxster 981 comes with the new enclosure. With the SmartTOP installed it is possible to open and close the top from a distance using the original factory remote fob. Additionally, convenient one-touch operation while driving is available for the center console switch.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), August 24th, 2016 — Mods4cars has begun shipping their SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller module for the Porsche 981 Boxster equipped with the new product enclosure. One of the signature functions of the add-on kit is the ability to control the top from a distance by just using the factory key fob. The original fobs do not need to be modified or replaced.

Additionally owners can open or close the top, even while driving at slow speeds, with just the touch of a button. It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch for the duration of the operation. The driver gets to put both hands back on the wheel quickly.

The SmartTOP comes with a handful of bonus features that further add convenience: The windows can be controlled separately from the top by remote. It is possible to reduce the radio volume when starting the car and an extended mode can be activated which allows the engine to be started or stopped while an ongoing top operation continues. The entire module can be temporarily disabled while retaining all user settings for when it is re-enabled later.

All functions and settings can be programmed to individual taste. SmartTOP modules come with a built-in USB port for quick configuration and firmware updates via Mac or Windows PC. Mods4cars is invested in continually improving their products and always listens to customer input. Support software and firmware updates are available online, free of charge.

Now Mods4cars has optimized the hardware of the SmartTOP module as well. The exclusive, custom designed enclosures are 30% smaller and thereby allow installation in even tighter places in the car. Two LEDs show status information and aid during the installation.

The convenience add-on kit for the Porsche Boxster 981 is available for 269 Euros + tax.

Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo: SmartTOP kits are available for all popular brands and models.

“JoJo The Dorky Dog” First in Stillwater Farm Adventure Series

Leave a comment

Author Amy Hannah’s Dog Tale Focuses on Message of Belonging.

Blackshear, GA (USA), August 19th, 2016 — Everyone wants to belong including JoJo, the Dorky Dog and featured hero of this enchanting tale of adventure to find his forever home. The first in a series of dog tales, in this story JoJo is searching for a home to call his own and a little boy to love.

“We all want to be part of something and to feel like we belong,” said author Amy Hannah. “JoJo is the perfect misfit that everyone can love and relate to. Each story explores a different message of love, friendship, family and faith and in this first story JoJo discovers a home at Stillwater Farm.”

Amy Hannah has a special place in her heart for children of the foster care system, and she understands that feeling of needing to belong. She believes in God’s plan for us, that we are never alone; God is always there for us. Her Stillwater Adventures are a way to share this hope and love with all children.

Hannah worked for the Department of Children and Family Services for ten years and saw first-hand, the impact some single parent and split families had on children who just wanted a home; a place to feel welcome and of value. Hannah incorporates her faith in God and His message of love and family into each Stillwater Adventure. The Stillwater farm gleans its name from Psalm 23 “he leadeth me beside the still waters.”

“There is something so delightfully engaging about this dorky dog,” said Lisa Umina, founder and publisher of Halo Publishing. “You can’t help but root for him as he explores the town and forest on his way to finding his home. The story and illustrations are classic fun and the Stillwater Adventure series is sure to be a must-have on every children’s bookshelf.”

A unique feature to each of the Stillwater Farm Adventures is the “Questions to Ponder” section at the end. The questions are designed to help young readers with comprehension as well as wonderful conversation starters between parents and children.

JoJo The Dorky Dog is available in paperback for $10.95 from Amazon and Barnes and Noble. A portion of every sale of the Stillwater Adventure series will be donated to children’s ministries.

About Amy Hannah:
The author lives with her husband – Scott, twin blessings – Katey & Haylea, and JoJo the Dorky Dog in Southeast Georgia. Keeping in rhythm with her heart of hearts, it is her aspiration to be a scribbler of all things pure, good, and true to glorify God and His Kingdom.

Newly Published “Who Goes There” First in the Granny Gray Stories

Leave a comment

Author LR Gray Pens Delightful Children’s Story Filled with Love and Laughter.

San Antonio, TX (USA), August 18th, 2016 — Remember a time when children would sit at the feet of their elders listening to imagined adventures? “Who Goes There,” the first in a series of children’s stories, tells the tale of Uncle Brother and the wild events that happen the night his truck breaks down. Is it his imagination or is it real?

“Time just goes so fast and I wanted to capture the fun stories and adventures told to me during my childhood,” said LR Gray, author and narrator of the Granny Gray series. “I have also fictionalized some of the events of my own children and grandchildren, turning them into creative and fun stories that will spark the imagination of children and their parents.”

The Granny Gray series of stories depict fictionalized family events, memories and creative “what if” scenarios designed to help children think more creatively. Each story, starting with “Who Goes There,” offers readers fun adventures that also share a message of being helpful, making a difference and being a good person.

“I wanted the stories to bring readers back to a time when children learned life lessons from their elders, where family members respected each other and sought out their advice and counsel,” said Gray. “In “Who Goes There,” I also wanted to pay tribute to my Uncle Jimmy “Bro” Baker who is an amazing human being. He is constantly looking for ways to help others and this first story from Granny Gray shows his generosity of spirit.”

“Who Goes There,” is being launched at a book release event dedicated to Brother Baker and will be held at his church, The New Mt. Pleasant Missionary Baptist Church on August 28, 2016. LR Gray will be on hand selling copies of her book and a significant portion of each sale will be donated to the church in Brother Baker’s name. The book launch is part of the church’s annual Family Reunion event and Ms. Gray will make a presentation at both services.

“LR Gray’s new book “Who Goes There,” is a wonderful addition to our collection of children’s books,” said Lisa Umina, founder and publisher of Halo Publishing International. “Each of her stories capture a simpler time where elders in the family, in this case Granny Gray, inspire the young to do good and to make a difference in their world. I am so excited to see the next in her series, Pillar and His Discoveries in the Rain Forest, due out early 2017.”

About LR Gray:
LR Gray is a loving grandmother and mother with a passion for preserving the stories of a simpler time where families came first.. L R Gray grew up in a large family, with lots of siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents and a godmother.. L R Gray loved the stories her family would share and the many others she would read in her spare time. From this she began to slip off to the wonderful world of imagination, which is where her writing began.

Leave a comment

The retrofit SmartTOP convertible module made by Mods4cars will be available soon for the Chevrolet Corvette C7. It allows, among other things, the one-touch operation of the convertible top, furthermore, the top can be operated from afar, by pressing a button via the existing vehicle keys.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), August 15th, 2016 — The manufacturer Mods4cars has announced the SmartTOP top control for the new Corvette C7. From the end of August, this year, the smart Cabriolet opener will be available. The SmartTOP module enables operation of the roof by one touch. Tapping the interior button, the tops movement is automatically set in motion. Thereby omitting the need for the laborious continuous pressing.

In addition to simpler roof operation from inside the vehicle, the roof can be operated remotely via the existing remote control. For this, pressing a combination of keys on the ignition key is sufficient. With this, SmartTOP customers can already open the top, as they approach the convertible. No changes to the vehicle key is required for this feature.

“We have acknowledged the many inquiries and look forward to still offering our SmartTOP module, for the Chevrolet Corvette C7, during this cabriolet season.” Explains PR spokesman Sven Tornow. “We have also managed to make the installation of our new product dead easy. A precise fitting cable set ensures a simple plug connection between the vehicle electronics and SmartTOP module.” Sven Tornow continued.

The SmartTOP for Corvette C7 will be delivered in the new Mods4cars housing. A USB port allows the programming of the module via a home PC / MAC. In addition, software updates can be loaded, which Mods4cars offers free of charge. With the integrated SmartTOP, top movement is not interrupted when starting or stopping the engine. If required, the module allows itself to be completely deactivated.

Since 2002 Mods4cars provides retrofittable top controls. SmartTOP cabriolet modules are available, thus far, for the following vehicle brands: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and Volkswagen.

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.
