The summer is finally here! As the Fourth of July rapidly approaches, New York Laser Aesthetics Group wants to remind you of their Red, White and Blue motto

Manhasset, NY, June 18, 2012 – In order to enjoy the holiday weekend and the upcoming summer season to the fullest, getting laser hair removal treatments will ensure a smooth finish to your skin, which will ensure a great tan. You will avoid the pain, redness and irritation brought on by other forms of hair removal, such as shaving, waxing and electrolysis. Your skin will be spared of any “black and blue” bruises, and you’ll remain comfortable during the entire treatment, instead of suffering a case of the “blues!”

Laser hair removal is the perfect way to look and feel great this summer while you’re relaxing on the beach, out on a boat, hanging out at a barbeque, or travelling. Your skin will be hair-free, soft and need minimal upkeep while you take advantage of the great weather with your summer activities. New York Laser Aesthetics Group provides a host of laser hair removal treatments for both men and women. Popular services include laser hair removal of the legs, underarms, stomach and chest, bikini area, back, back of neck, chin, upper lip, and sideburns.

New York Laser Aesthetics Group is conveniently located in Manhasset, NY and is easily accessible from Great Neck, Port Washington, Roslyn, Garden City, Jericho and Syosset. New York Laser Aesthetics Group is a premier laser hair removal and skin treatment center with a professional and caring New York State-certified, insured and bonded staff. The center is state of the art, clean, welcoming and private. The comfort and peace of mind of their clients are of utmost importance to the New York Aesthetics Group.

Only top-notch, medical-grade technology is employed at the center to ensure the best laser hair removal results and minimal discomfort. N.Y. Laser Aesthetics is proud to use the Dual Epicare Aesthetic Laser system, an FDA-approved medical graded device that delivers great hair removal results with little irritation to surrounding skin. Other laser systems and technology are used to tackle skin imperfections such as spider veins, age spots, brown spots, liver spots and sun spots. They can even use their laser technology to help you remove bothersome café au lait birthmarks and freckles. Laser treatments are the most effective treatment available in spot removal.

Laser skin rejuvenation is another way to improve the skin’s condition by using laser therapy. This treatment consists of an infrared light that reduces skin pigmentation and stimulates collagen production. It soothes fine lines, shrinks capillaries, shrinks moles, reduces acne and acne scars, and is suitable for all skin types and ethnicities.

In addition to these sophisticated laser hair removal services, New York Laser Aesthetics Group is also proud to offer a host of skin treatments. They provide face-sculpting treatments including the well-known Biologique Recherche facial treatment from France to sculpt, lift and hydrate skin, and Chemical Peels tailored to a host of different skin needs such as anti-aging, acne, rosacea, minimizing pore size and uneven skin tone and pigmentation. They also offer toenail fungus removal using a special laser called the Q-Clear Foot Laser. For many people suffering from this embarrassing problem, this new technology is a huge breakthrough. The technology is FDA approved and has had no documented adverse reactions, and is bringing hope to many people whose medications did not cure this reoccurring problem.

New York Laser Aesthetics is confident you will love the results of their treatments. To this end, they stand behind their services and offer you an initial six-treatment laser hair removal package with a “lifetime guarantee” afterwards of any additional treatments at 50% off for life! Whatever your laser hair removal and/or skin care needs, they will be happy to help you.

SAFE International Announces Toronto Women’s Summer Self Defense Parties – Toronto, ON Self Defense

June 18, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Toronto Self Defense, SAFE International Announces Toronto Women’s Summer Self Defense Parties.

Toronto, ON, June 17, 2012 – (Straight Line PR) – Toronto Self Defense, SAFE International Announces Toronto Women’s Summer Self Defense Parties.

SAFE International ™ is the leading provider of mobile self defense/personal protection training in Ontario. SAFE International has taught more than 150,000 clients in the private, corporate and high school environments since 1994. SAFE International is expanding its seminar options to include women’s summer self defense parties in Toronto, ON.

SAFE International quickly realized that women had completely different concerns, fears, and needs than males. Chris Roberts, CEO of SAFE International listened to their concerns and tailored something that was not only educational, but also met their personal fears. Men have no idea what women go through on an everyday basis from the stares and comments to the physical gestures and advances.

One of the reasons that SAFE International enjoys teaching summer self defense for women in Toronto, is how receptive women are to the skills that the SAFE International instructors provide. SAFE International teaches self defense concepts, rather than techniques. This allows women to learn in a much shorter time. SAFE International always covers Awareness and Avoidance strategies which are based on one’s daily routines. We examine what an attacker looks for, what an attacker wants and doesn’t want in confrontation. One of the biggest topics we explore is how most people are too polite, even when their intuition is telling them the complete opposite. We cover the most common distraction techniques an attacker will use to gain an advantage. We then move on to verbal strategies in the event that avoidance is no longer possible. Rather than just teaching to yell at a potential attacker, we cover a few verbal strategies based on the aggressor and the scenario. The third step is addressing the physical aspect of Toronto women’s self defense. We begin with the advantages of adopting a passive stance rather than an aggressive stance. We only teach gross motor strikes due to the adrenal rush one gets when they are in a highly stressful state such as an attack scenario. We teach a philosophy of “Attack the Attacker” which reverses one from being the Prey, to that of being the Predator. Another philosophy is to attack the head if all avoidance and verbal strategies have failed. This is only 30 minutes into the physical training and you can see how the self defense concepts are very effective. The self defence drills increase with intensity as the participants gain more confidence. This is very important as you don’t want to terrify your clients right from the start. It is important to build rapport with your students and the results will be seen as the drills progress. The following YouTube video shows how much can be learned in only 30 minutes of women’s self defense instruction.

Self Defense Party In The Home!
Invite 6 to 8 of your friends for a few hours of fun, education and potentially life- saving instruction. Plan a meal, bbq, snacks, maybe some dessert! Be prepared for a unique Toronto Women’s Summer Self Defense experience! What has made SAFE International so popular is their unique method of teaching with humour and sharing of anecdotes. Get to experience their simulated attacks in scenario specific situations such as at the front door, the kitchen, the car, etc.

SAFE International has taught more than 120,000 clients including mothers, fathers, daughters, police officers, seniors, and people with disabilities.

Luxury Travel Ltd to Promote Exotic Laos Encounter Tour

June 17, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

This trip has been designed for travellers who wish to experience the exotic Laos tour.

Hanoi, Vietnam, June 16, 2012 – This trip has been designed for travellers who wish to experience the exotic Laos tour. Their trip will start in the capital city of Vientiane and end in Luang Prabang. In between, travelers will explore rugged and mountainous Luang Nam Tha and its surrounding areas.

Laos remains relatively exotic, unexplored and is possibly the most overlooked destination in Asia, despite its rich culture, history and diverse ecosystem.

In Luang Nam Tha, you will be able to meet many hill tribe people, venture off the beaten path and discover the many hidden wonders of this beautiful Southeast Asian country.

Once the heart and soul of the ancient kingdom of Laos, Luang Prabang is now a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is filled with ornate temples and French colonial architecture on the bank of the Mekong River, giving it a truly magical feel.

The price starts from US$ 2071 per person in a twin share in deluxe hotels and includes all transportation in Laos, meals, entrance fees and the services of an English-speaking guide.

“Luxury Travel Ltd (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) specialises in tailor-made tours for clients who are looking for something special, for travellers who wish to experience the exotic Laos tour. Your trip will start in the capital city of Vientiane and end in Luang Prabang. In between, you will explore rugged and mountainous Luang Nam Tha and its surrounding areas,” said David Nguyen, Sales and Marketing Manager of Luxury Travel Ltd. “You will experience the finest local food, ride elephants, trek through the forest and hill tribal villages, yet you will go back to a world of comfort each evening. We are sure that this will be a once in a life time experience in Laos!”

Luxury Travel has been taking care of visitors to Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Thailand since 2004 and has won numerous travel awards, including the most recent, the “Best Luxury Tour Operator in Vietnam.”

AAA welcomes New Wine Fund from France

June 16, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

AAA has welcomed news from France that asset management firm Uzes Gestion has launched a wine investment fund for those with an appetite for alternative asset classes.

Boston, MA, June 15, 2012 – Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA) has welcomed news from France that asset management firm Uzes Gestion has launched a wine investment fund for those with an appetite for alternative asset classes.

The fund, named the Uzes Grands Crus wine fund, has been launched in order to meet demand from those who believe that investing in fine wines is a good safe-haven option at a time when the stock markets are very volatile. “The fact that the Eurozone is still extremely unstable is putting European investors off of putting their money into the equity markets,” explained AAA’s analysis partner, Anthony Johnson.

Another firm that helps investors buy fine wines whose values are likely to increase in the future is Cavissima, which is run by Thierry Goddet. He explained more about the attraction of wine investments to the Financial Times readers: “With the debt crisis crippling financial markets, we’ve seen new investors flocking in, as they look for defensive investments.”

The new fund, launched by Uzes Gestion buys up cases of fine wines made by lesser known vineyards and for a reasonable price. It then hopes to store the wines and sell on at later date for more money – thus delivering solid returns to investors. The fine wine trade is growing at the moment, not least due to the increasing demand in China, where the newly wealthy population is developing a taste for the tipple.

Mr Johnson explained, “The fine wine investment market is driven by the fact that investors want something tangible in exchange for their cash. They are increasingly keen to obtain something with an intrinsic value, such as timber, art, wine and precious metals, instead of risking everything on the stock market, which has proven unstable in recent years.”

AAA backs ethical investments and many kinds of alternative asset classes, such as timberland investments through firms like Greenwood Management that operate in Brazil and Canada.

Lifestyle investments are ‘Realistic option’, says AAA

June 16, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

AAA is highlighting a recent article in the Huffington Post, detailing the growing popularity of ‘lifestyle investments’ as an alternative to traditional asset classes.

Boston, MA, June 15, 2012 – Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA) is highlighting a recent article in the Huffington Post, detailing the growing popularity of ‘lifestyle investments’ as an alternative to traditional asset classes.

The article begins by talking about the rising popularity of wine investments and the fact that fine wine investments have generated returns of 195 per cent over the past seven years, according to the London International Vintners Exchange (LIVEX). Demand for wine is growing in the emerging economies of China, Russia and Brazil – simply as a response to the growing wealth of the populations in these new economic ‘powerhouses.’

The fact that demand for wine is growing makes this a good time to experiment with so-called lifestyle investments such as wine, according to AAA’s analysis partner, Anthony Johnson. He said, “It’s easy to start small with these kinds of alternative investments.

“An investment of as little as £500 to £1,000 will enable you to purchase some incredibly good fine wines whose values could rise exponentially over the coming years.”

The Huffington Post article outlines the range of different funds investors can opt into if they would like to take a more official route towards lifestyle investments. For example, The Wine Source Fund is based on a range of fine wines and whiskies that combine to create what the fund calls “a balanced portfolio able to benefit from longer and shorter production cycles”.

Others specialise in older fine wines and even manage cellars for investors who need to keep their valuable investments in tiptop condition.

AAA backs a range of alternative investments and is keen to promote what there is to be gained from investing in something that interests you. “Those who are interested in fine wines, art and antiques and starting to realise that they can make money for heir hobbies.

“The same can be said for those who are keen to help promote sustainability and eco-investments, who can invest in sustainable forestry through firms like Greenwood Management,” added Mr Johnson.

FRA Welcomes Rousseff’s New Environmental Measures

June 15, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Following the news that Dilma Rousseff has agreed to veto parts of the controversial Brazilian Forestry Act, FRA has also welcomed Rousseff’s moves to create new nature reserves and protected land for indigenous tribes.

Bainbridge Island, WA, June 15, 2012 – Following the news that Dilma Rousseff has agreed to veto parts of the controversial Brazilian Forestry Act, Forestry Research Associates (FRA) has also welcomed Rousseff’s moves to create new nature reserves and protected land for indigenous tribes.

FRA, a research and analysis consultancy, promotes forestry investment and sustainable development projects. Its analysis partner, Peter Collins, stated, “The news that Brazil’s President Rousseff is opening new nature reserves is great for the forests and indigenous people of Brazil and we wholeheartedly endorse the decision.”

The measures were signed into law earlier this week ahead of the Rio+20 environmental conference on 20-22 June. The conference will see major heads of state gather to discuss environmental concerns and issues that affect countries all over the globe.

In response to some claims from critics that she was generally putting the country’s economic growth ahead of environmental concerns, Rousseff stated that Brazil has become “one of the most advanced countries” when it comes to sustainable development.

Several projects that involve planting sustainable timberland plantations help the country to reach its sustainability goals. For example, the projects run by firms like Greenwood Management, which plants fast-growing non-native timber species for use as an alternative source of timber and charcoal, can help to protect native forests. FRA supports these projects and claims that investors can also make healthy returns from them.

“The timberland asset class has regularly outperformed traditional asset classes in recent years and investing in trees offers individuals the chance to get their hands on a tangible asset that can provide diversification in a portfolio,” added Mr Collins.

Demand for timber and charcoal is high in Brazil and elsewhere among the world’s emerging economies – thanks partly due to developing infrastructure in countries like China and India and also because of the growing steel industry in Brazil itself.

The new measures announced by Rousseff include the creation of seven new indigenous territories to help protect land used by native Amazon tribes.

Ecotech Institute’s First-Ever Graduating Class Takes the Stage June 21

June 15, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Forty-two Graduates to Receive Degrees Focused on Clean Technology and Sustainability

Denver, CO, June 14, 2012 – Ecotech Institute, the first and only college entirely focused on preparing America’s workforce for careers in clean technology and sustainability, will hold its first graduation on Thursday, June 21, 2012. Forty-two students will receive their associate’s degrees, which prepares them for a career in the clean technology industry. The graduates will receive degrees in the following areas: Wind Energy Technology, Solar Energy Technology, Renewable Energy Technology and Electrical Engineering Technology. Former Governor Bill Ritter, who currently serves as the Director of the Colorado State University Center for the New Energy Economy, will deliver the commencement speech at the graduation.

“As Governor, I was proud when Ecotech Institute chose Colorado as the place to locate the country’s first private technical institute devoted solely to preparing the workforce for the clean energy economy,” said Bill Ritter, Former Colorado Governor and current Director of the Colorado State University Center for the New Energy Economy. “It is a privilege to play a role in Ecotech’s first commencement, and to see the efforts of the staff and faculty come to fruition.”

Students in this first graduating class began classes in a temporary facility in June 2010 as Ecotech completed an overhaul of an existing vacant building. In January 2011, they moved to the current LEED gold-certified campus in Aurora, Colorado. Today, Ecotech has more than 500 students and continues to grow.

“This initial group of students are visionaries, as they signed up for classes before they were able to see the beautiful campus and cutting-edge labs,” said Mike Seifert, president of Ecotech Institute. “Now, a variety of clean tech companies are offering them excellent positions and their forward-thinking commitment is paying off. We applaud each of them and look forward to watching their success.”

At Ecotech all students develop soft skills (communication, workplace etiquette), and math and science basics and technology skills, but the educational emphasis is on hands-on, practical training. Ecotech’s prestigious national board of advisors, who all work in clean tech industries, helped design the school’s curriculum, providing coursework that reflects what the students will experience upon graduation. For a demographic breakdown of this first graduating class, please visit http://www.ecotechinstitute.com/pdf/ecotech-graduate-information.pdf.

“Ecotech is producing well-prepared graduates that are highly sought in industries such as ours,” said Jesse Masters, Recruiter from M-I SWACO, a Schlumberger Company. “Its curriculum and practical labs offer complete training that makes new employees ready to hit the ground running. We were very impressed with the interviews we conducted with students from this graduating class and are excited to have several of these graduates join our team.”

Ecotech’s campus is LEED-gold certified and supports a commitment to sustainable living. The school generates approximately 5-10 percent of its energy from on-site clean, renewable energy sources such as rooftop wind turbines, solar panels, integral thin solar technologies embedded into the glass of the building canopy, and solar trees.

Ecotech Institute, which is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools, offers five highly practical associate’s degree programs that provide graduates with skills valued by today’s alternative renewable energy employers.

To learn more about Ecotech Institute, visit us online at www.ecotechinstitute.com or call 877-326-5576. The next round of classes begins in July and applications are being accepted now. Financial assistance is available to those who qualify.

SAFE International Launches Toronto Health and Wellness Self Defense Seminars – Toronto, ON Self Defense

June 15, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Toronto Health and Wellness, SAFE International Launches Toronto Corporate Health and Wellness Self Defense Seminars.

Toronto, ON, June 15, 2012 – (Straight Line PR) – Toronto Health and Wellness, SAFE International Launches Toronto Corporate Health and Wellness Self Defense Seminars.

SAFE International ™ is one of the leading providers of mobile self defense/personal protection training in North America. SAFE International has taught 150,000 clients in the private, corporate and high school environments since 1994. SAFE International is expanding its seminar options to include Corporate Health and Wellness Self Defense Seminars in Toronto, ON.

Many companies today are looking for educational opportunities to provide to their staff. Corporate Health and Wellness seminars are a great way to offer this education. SAFE International provides not only potentially life-saving information during their one or two hour health and wellness seminars, but it is also entertaining at the same time.

Many corporations are located where there are risks people need to concern themselves with such as car safety, elevator safety, personal safety, plus many more. A SAFE International Health and Wellness seminar can teach employees what an attacker looks for in a potential victim, what an attacker wants and doesn’t want in confrontation, as well as how to avoid looking like a victim. One of the biggest topics that SAFE International explores is how most people are too polite, even when their intuition is telling them that their safety is at risk. SAFE International covers the most common distraction techniques an attacker will use to gain an advantage. Instruction would then move on to verbal strategies in the event that avoidance is no longer possible. Rather than just teaching to yell at a potential attacker, SAFE International instructors cover a few verbal strategies based on the aggressor and the scenario. The third step is addressing the physical aspect of Toronto Corporate Health and Wellness. Physical self defense instruction begins with the advantages of adopting a passive stance rather than an aggressive stance. SAFE International only teaches gross motor strikes due to the adrenal rush one gets when they are in a highly stressful state such as an attack scenario. Self defense training does not take years, and in fact with just a few hours of Toronto Health and Wellness self defense, you can be confident that you have reduced the odds of harm for your employees.

SAFE International has taught more than 150,000 women and men since 1994. For more information on SAFE International Corporate Health and Wellness seminars, please email Chris Roberts, CEO, by email at chrisroberts@safeinternational.biz You can also visit the website at www.safeinternational.biz SAFE International can also be reached toll free at 1 800 465 5972.
