Female Minster and Author Helps Quench Spiritual Thirst through Inspirational Truths

April 12, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Writing has always been a passion of minster and businesswoman Dianna Caraballo. Wanting to inspire and help motivate those around her is something she learned at a young age.

Brooklyn Heights, OH (USA), April 11th, 2015 — Writing has always been a passion of minster and businesswoman Dianna Caraballo. Wanting to inspire and help motivate those around her is something she learned at a young age. Being one of eight siblings and growing up in a large family, it was important to support one another in good or bad times. However, Caraballo knew God wanted more for her.

“Becoming a minster was a very rewarding day in my life,” says Dianna. “God has a purpose for us all and we all need each other collectively, even if our purposes are different.”

Caraballo’s call to serve God did not stop after He called her to minster. She soon went on to pen two books (both published by Halo Publishing, Int.), Women Were Designed for Greatness Too! and A Little Drink of Water: A Devotional of Spiritual Awakening.

In her book Women Were Designed for Greatness Too!, Caraballo’s message is one of encouragement and hope for women everywhere. “A lot of what I share has to do with how women are brought up in church and taught there is a difference between men and women. In truth, we are to love one another as HE loves the church and us,” says Dianna. “I share a lot of the internal workings of different churches, but most importantly, my goal is to share that God can call anyone, man or woman, to do His work.”

In her recently released book, A Little Drink of Water: A Devotional of Spiritual Awakening, Caraballo shares the power of encouragement through seeing the good. “The inspiration for this book had a lot to do with social media and all the negative comments and postings being shared. Wanting to encourage and bring positive re-enforcement to my social media friends, I started posting an inspirational quote or thought of the day. This brought a big following and led me to compile these posts, and additional thoughts, into a book. My goal is to share God’s love, inspiration and help build self-esteem in our daily lives.”

As an author and mister, Dianna Caraballo hopes to help put an end to all the bad traditions, or what the population thinks are Christian traditions, and help those around her start living the way God wants us to live. She also hopes to share the message that we are to be co-leaders of the world and in God’s work.

“Many people are hurting, stressed out and need help,” says Halo Publishing Lisa M. Umina. “Many of us don’t know how to ask for help and people like Dianna Caraballo who reach out a hand and say, ‘Hope isn’t lost. I’m here to encourage you and see the good in you,’ who help us realize we are loved and there is good in our lives.”

You can purchase both of Dianna Caraballo’s books through Halo Publishing, Amazon and B&N.

Women Were Designed for Greatness Too!; ISBN: 9781612440422; Cost $13.95 (paperback)

A Little Drink of Water: A devotional of Spiritual Awakening; ISBN: 978-1-61244-325-6; Cost $13.95 (paperback)

Biography:
Dianna Caraballo currently resides in Ohio, is the mother of twins and currently holds a minister’s license. She is one of eight siblings and a businesswoman of 23 years. Her passion is to inspire and encourage good works in those around her, and to continue meeting others while speaking about God’s love. For more information, visit www.halopublishing.com

High School Students Release Children’s Book to Raise Funds for Bridge to Burundi Project

April 12, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Lieutenant-General Roméo Dallaire and Halo Publishing International Partner with Students.

Hudson, Quebec (Canada), April 11th, 2015 — Westwood High School students have teamed up with Lieutenant-General Roméo Dallaire and Halo Publishing International to release their first children’s book, “Bakuru and the School on the Hill.” The book is a collaborative effort of writing and illustrations between about 30 students, alumni and teachers, along with a forward by Dallaire. The hope is that this book will raise awareness and funds for the Bridge to Burundi, a six-year project where students have been helping a small African village break the cycle of poverty.

The book takes the reader through the eyes of a young girl named Baruru who shows the history and culture of the Burundi school and how education changes the poverty cycle.

“We wanted to tie in global issues and human rights so the book would have a message,” says Nancy Koluzs, who headed up the book project through the school’s Literacy Project program. She’s also a major contributor to the Bridge to Burundi Project.

The idea to write a children’s book started after Halo author Valerie Redmond contacted Koluzs to get involved with the school’s literacy program. Halo Publisher Lisa M. Umina found out about the book project and wanted to help.

“I love giving back,” says Halo Publisher Lisa M. Umina. “Helping students by publishing a book to raise awareness and funds for global issues just made sense to me.”

Westwood teachers say the book will do more than just raise funds and awareness about the Bridge to Burundi Project.

“We believe this book will inspire kids to become active global citizens,” says Peter Nield, another teacher involved with the Bridge to Burundi. “No matter how small your efforts are, we teach students at Westwood that they can have a global impact.”

You can purchase “Bakuru and the School on the Hill” at www.HaloPublishing.com. Funds raised will go toward the Bridge to Burundi Project.

Bridge to Burundi Project:
The Bridge to Burundi Project started in October 2009 by students at Westwood High School as part of their annual Student Life camp. Westwood teacher and native Burundian Jean-Claude Manirakiza gave a presentation to the students on the state of education in his home country. Roused by the story of his life, the students decided to build an elementary school in Rwoga, Burundi. Eight months later, the first classroom opened to 60 first graders. Since then, another ten classrooms have been built, offering free education and supplies to more than 400 students. In addition, the students have raised more than $100,000 to build a medical centre, convenience store, and drinkable water to the village.

Successful Businessman Shares Personal Journey to Self-Discovery and Faith

March 31, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Greg Grandchamp is not trying to sell you on his religion, in fact, calling himself a Christian had no impact on his life until he grew in his own personal relationship with Jesus Christ and realized how many people were what he now calls, “Cardboard Christians.”

Colorado Springs, CO (USA), March 31st, 2015 — Greg Grandchamp is not trying to sell you on his religion, in fact, calling himself a Christian had no impact on his life until he grew in his own personal relationship with Jesus Christ and realized how many people (himself included) were what he now calls, “Cardboard Christians.” Wanting to change this stereotype in his own life, and in others, he set out to become a disciple of Jesus Christ. His goal, to stimulate awareness and increase the understanding of what being a Christian is really about, and help others enhance their own faith and restore their sense of connection to true Christianity.

“To the world, it is as if we are trying to build our numbers and that isn’t what Christianity is about. It is a life commitment and Jesus should be our center or life is meaningless,” says Grandchamp. “I want people to understand Christianity isn’t about following rules, rituals and guidelines either. It’s not about a nice person being nicer. It’s about acting like a Christian and being able to share your faith… a testimony of Christ.”

Grandchamp’s debut novel, In Pursuit of Truth (published by Halo Publishing, Int.) is about how Christianity today is often viewed by others as judgmental, hypercritical and condemnatory.

“People feel very uncomfortable talking about Christ. They don’t want friends to feel pushed. I want people to feel at ease to talk about Jesus Christ and his role in our lives,” states Grandchamp, “There is no middle ground if Jesus Christ is who he says he is—then that, changes everything! You can’t be blasé. You have to accept or reject him. It’s your choice, but you need to know both sides first.”

Too often people are turned off by what they see in religion. Many feel religious practices are bound by rules and regulations. Grandchamp asks readers to ponder and answer the question, “Who is Jesus Christ?” for themselves.

“Greg, in his book ‘In Pursuit of Truth,’ tries to dispel false assumptions of religion and show true Christianity is nothing more—and nothing less—than a relationship with Jesus Christ. He really reaches out to the reader to deepen their relationship with Christ. There is and can be a harmony between spirituality and everyday life. So many are understandably fearful of getting out of their comfort zone and taking those barrier-busting leaps of faith,” says Halo Publisher Lisa M. Umina.

You can purchase “In Pursuit of Truth” through Halo Publishing, Amazon and B&N.
Cost $11.95 (paperback)
ISBN: 978-1-61244-339-3
Available in both print and eBook.

Biography:
Greg Grandchamp lives in Colorado Springs, CO with his wife of 30 years. He and Norma have four adult children and five grandkids, who they adore. Greg and his wife love to RV in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Greg is a senior executive in the mortgage industry and brings his faith into his business world. He is an accomplished public speaker and trainer, but mostly loves teaching the Bible in a way that touches hearts. For more information, visit http://www.halopublishing.com

LAN Systems Partners with Cambridge Sound Management

March 26, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

LAN Systems has partnered with Cambridge Sound Management to offer the latest technology in sound masking.

Berkeley Lake, GA (USA), March 26th, 2015 — LAN Systems has partnered with Cambridge Sound Management to offer the latest technology in sound masking. The patented Cambridge system is a leader is sound masking technology for speech privacy and workforce productivity solutions.

The system provides sound masking for open office spaces, private offices and public spaces where speech privacy or speech confidentiality is desired or required and in any workspace to reduce distractions and improve productivity. Speech privacy or speech confidentiality is desired or required and in any workspace to reduce distractions and improve productivity.

“Cambridge Sound Management is the gold standard for sound management,” said Hester. “We are delighted to partner with them to offer this great technology for the modern workplace.”

The Cambridge sound masking system can help organizations achieve LEED Certification. The Indoor Environmental Quality category – to increase daylight and outdoor views – requires organizations to use lower partitions between work stations, large windows and more open floor plans. These design requirements can create a decline in the acoustic quality of the workspace, increasing distractions and reducing productivity. Additionally, the Cambridge system is the most energy efficient sound masking system available today, using less than 10% of the power of any other system.

Traditional sound masking systems, created in the early 1950s, use speakers the size of paint cans and require significant post-installation commissioning. Still on the market, these outdated systems were not designed for today’s modern facilities. Cambridge was founded in 1999 in Cambridge, Massachusetts by an MIT PhD with a distinguished heritage in the field of acoustics and audio engineering. Developing proprietary technology based on research and development in acoustics, science, architecture, and facility design, Cambridge Sound Management launched its first commercial sound masking solution in 2001 and continues to pioneer the next generation of sound masking solutions.

SmartTOP Add-On Convertible Top Controller for Peugeot 307 CC and 308 CC Redesigned

March 26, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

The aftermarket SmartTOP Convertible Top Controllers made by Mods4cars for Peugeot 307 CC and 308 CC received a facelift redesign. They now ship in a new, custom designed module enclosure, specifically made by Mods4cars for the purpose. It is smaller and slimmer and thereby easier to install in tight locations in the car. Two LEDs show status information and aid during the install process.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), March 25th, 2015 — The SmartTOP Convertible Top Controllers offered by aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars provide simple and easy roof controls for convertibles. On Peugeot 307 CC and 308 CC the product allows opening and closing of the top while the car is moving, up to 40 km/h (~28mph). Thanks to the one-touch operation, the top switch only needs to be tapped once. It is no longer necessary to pull over and hold the switch down for the entire time.

Additionally the top can be controlled from the original key fob remote by issuing a key combination. This makes it possible to open the top before getting in the car. Vice versa it is also possible to close the top from a distance at the first sign of impending rainfall. No changes are necessary to the original key fobs or receiver system.

Apart from these two main features, SmartTOP modules for Peugeot 307 CC and 308 CC also come with a few bonus features: Windows can be controlled separately from the top by remote. The “all windows” switch in the car can be made to close all windows with one-touch convenience. And a windows comfort feature allows the driver to still operate all windows for up to 60 seconds after turning the ignition off. An extended mode can be activated which allows the top to continue running while the engine is being started or stopped. The entire module can be deactivated temporarily while retaining all user configurable settings.

All features of the module can be configured according to individual needs. Configuration of the module is extremely simple. Mods4cars was able to control the center display in the dash to show a clear text setup menu which shows all functions and settings of the top module in an easy to understand way.

Now Mods4cars redesigned the looks of their smart modules. “The new product enclosure was exclusively designed by and made for Mods4cars to perfectly meet all the needs of the module.” explains PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “It is about 30% smaller and can be fitted easily in tight spaces in the car. Additionally there are two LEDs now that show status and troubleshooting information in order to make installation simple and straight forward.” he continues.

The SmartTOP modules come equipped with a standard USB port. This port allows quick and easy configuration of the module via Mac or PC as well as firmware updates. Support software and updates are available free of charge online. The kit comes with a full plug-and-play wiring adapter harness for quick and simple connection of the module to the car electronics. No wires need to be cut or spliced, no soldering is necessary and everything can later be removed without leaving any damage or trace.

SmartTOP kits by Mods4cars are available for the following popular brands: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and VW. The SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller kit for Peugeot 307 CC and 308 CC is available for 249 Euros + tax. A kit is also available for the Peugeot 207 CC.

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.

March 25, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Elder Pharmaceuticals Limited which was going through an erratic cash flow situation has made major pending statutory payments of TDS, provident fund, ESIC, Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund (MLWF) etc to the tune of approx Rs 26 crore.

Mumbai, India, March 25th, 2015 — Elder Pharmaceuticals Limited (BSE: 532322 | NSE: ELDERPHARMEQ) which was going through an erratic cash flow situation has made major pending statutory payments of TDS, provident fund, ESIC, Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund (MLWF) etc to the tune of approx Rs 26 crore. The company has informed the BSE & NSE to this effect.

http://www.bseindia.com/corporates/anndet_new.aspx?newsid=d6c05454-0734-4f82-b876-348077f1f915

Elder Pharmaceuticals plans to clear the backlog of other payments very soon. Elder is also in talks to raise fresh funds through a combination of debt or debt cum equity in order to improve its cash flow and performance. The company’s cash flow cycle was affected for a larger part of FY 2014-15 resulting in payments getting delayed to its various creditors and government bodies. In view of the growth in sales of its pharma & OTC products recently, the company is anticipating regular cash infusion which will contribute to its working capital, regular expenses and debt retirement needs.

Elder Pharmaceuticals is a major player in the Anti-infectives, Multi Vitamins, Cardiology and Skin care segments and is also present in the Over The Counter segment (OTC) through its products like AM/PM, Solo, Respite, Rhyme covering sectors like Oral Mouthwash, Skin Care, Nasal Decongestion, Muscle relaxants and Color Cosmetics. Elder has a prominent position in the pharma space in India and abroad with its products commanding good demand from hospitals, doctors etc. A few products like Eldervit (a nutraceutical), anti-infectives like Cefixime based Formic and Elfi, & Skin O2 (dermatology) have significant market share and are growing at over 14% annually. The company has 6 state-of-the-art production facilities across India backed by a team of over 2 dozen scientists.

Going forward, the company is embarking on a major price revamp supported by an aggressive national expansion campaign in order to garner a larger share in the domestic market. Elder’s International operations are registering steady growth and more than 40% of Elder’s revenue is likely to come from its global business. As a part of Elder’s deal with Torrent Pharmaceuticals in 2013 – which involved sale of over 30 brands and transfer of Elder’s domestic employees to Torrent – Elder shall utilize its six plants for contract manufacture of the formulations business sold to Torrent for 3 years which will fetch Elder a continous revenue stream of Rs 70 – 75 crore every year.

Elder group is targeting a turnover of about Rs 1000 cr from its domestic and international operations by FY 2017.

Author Believes He Has An Answer to the Healthcare Crisis

March 19, 2015 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Releases book, “Physician Leadership: The Rx to Healthcare Transformation”.

Tampa, FL (USA), March 18, 2015 — Healthcare Expert Mo Kasti says his mission in life is to transform the healthcare industry through physician leadership. With the healthcare crisis continuing i.e. higher costs, care fragmentation and physician dissatisfaction, he believes the answer to the healthcare crisis is physician leaders delivering more High Touch than High Tech. That’s why he wrote the book, “Physician Leadership: The Rx to Healthcare Transformation” which hits the shelves March 15, 2015.

Stimulated by the Affordable Care Act, health care organizations are shifting from focusing on volume (fee-for-service) to one that is value-based (better quality at lower cost). For such a shift to be successful, physicians need to lead the efforts to increase efficiency, clinical quality and reduce cost. A recent study found that hospitals with the greatest clinician participation in management scored about 50 percent higher on important drivers of performance. Physicians, however, are typically not formally educated on leadership.

“Organizations that effectively develop their physician leaders have demonstrated better results,” says Kasti, the CEO and founder of The Physician Leadership Institute (PLI), an organization that develops leaders. To get out of the healthcare crisis, physicians need to first see themselves as leaders and not just clinicians, inspire their teams’ hearts as human beings and not as just human doings, lead change strategies, and deliver transformative results”. Kasti has been coaching, teaching, researching and studying “physician leadership” for 25 years.

This book dives into the Kasti’s framework of physician leadership. It also explains the genesis of a leadership vacuum, highlights the symptoms facing physicians and healthcare organizations and provides real-life case studies with proven results.

“This book is an invitation for healthcare administrators to realize the need to engage physicians in leadership,” says Lisa M. Umina, publisher of Halo Publishing International. “It’s also a book that helps physicians understand what it means to lead the future of healthcare.”
