May 23, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Danang has a growing range of tourist facilities which is contributing to the growth of Danang as a tourism hub. To capitalize on this trend, Luxury Travel Ltd

Hanoi, Vietnam, May 22, 2012 – Danang has a growing range of tourist facilities which is contributing to the growth of Danang as a tourism hub. To capitalize on this trend, Luxury Travel Ltd (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com). has just opened a new Danang office to meet increased luxury tour. This office will open on June 1, 2012.

Danang has stepped into the tourism limelight as a much sought after destination for holidaymakers. For luxury travel advisors at Luxury Travel Ltd, (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com ) Danang is more appealing than Bali or Phu Ket and its beach has been voted one of the world’s best by Forbes Magazine.

The resort’s pristine beaches, and the trio of nearby UNESCO World Heritage sites (a short day trip away), have made Danang an attractive proposition. Danang has a growing range of tourist facilities, including challenging golf courses (including the Montgomerie Link Danang) and hotels from international designers and operators.

The new terminal at Danang International Airport opened last December and is set to rival Hanoi’s and Ho Chi Minh City’s (HCMC) airports. Further, the past two years have seen the completion of many luxurious resorts along the coastline, with names such as Hyatt Regency, Nam Hai, Vinpearl, Accor, InterContinental, and Fusion Maia entering the market and offering more choices for leisure and M.I.C.E travelers.

“Danang is going to boom. Our business has increased by 30 per cent, and much of that has to do with the new airport and air links to the central coast of Vietnam. We have just won several new big accounts and we are so glad to open our new Danang Office at 38 Hai Phong Street in the city center of Danang, a few steps from the Han Bridge and the river, to meet the increased demand. We have launched a new concierge hotline phone number +84932449777 for our customers who can call us at around the clock for any assistance while holidaying in Centre Vietnam. Currently, there very few tour companies in Vietnam who have their own offices in Central Vietnam, only sub-contracts with local tour operators. We are proud of being the very first to open our own office to tap into the increased luxury demand and serve discerning travelers and holidaymakers to Central Vietnam, with more personalized services at the most competitive prices.” said Pham Ha, CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.”

New Company Rabbit Hole Hay Specializes in Online Sales of Farm Fresh Hay for Rabbits

May 23, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Rabbit Hole Hay is a new online company offering farm fresh hay for rabbits and other small animals. The company sells both alfalfa hay and timothy hay, grown in the mountain valleys of Northern California and Oregon, providing the ideal growing conditions for nutritious hay for rabbits.

Chico, CA, May 22, 2012 (Straight Line PR) — Rabbit Hole Hay is a new company offering online shopping for some of the best farm-fresh alfalfa hay and timothy hay for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and other small animals. Rabbit Hole Hay provides small pet owners with access to nutritious, great-tasting hay – delivered straight to the customer’s front door, saving time otherwise spent traveling to and from the pet store.

“We were just minding our own business when the idea to sell great quality hay for rabbits online just jumped out in front of us. It was crazy!” RabbitHoleHay.com CEO Michael K. Redman explained. “We never saw it coming, and then we realized it was GENIUS! We discovered that small pet owners needed more options to buy affordable alfalfa hay and timothy hay for rabbits online ( http://www.rabbitholehay.com/products/ ) and it needed to be amazingly good quality. So we thought, ‘why not get some of the best hay in the world from our own backyard and help our local farmers at the same time?'”

RabbitHoleHay.com is a new online store which specializes in selling specific hay types ideal for quality rabbit food, as well as an educational resource about hay for rabbits. The company’s web site explains that alfalfa hay and timothy hay are the best types of hay to use for rabbit food. Alfalfa hay is ideal for young rabbits aged three weeks to seven months, because it is high in fiber, protein and calcium needed for proper growth. Timothy hay is best for adult rabbits, aged seven months and older. It has fewer calories than alfalfa hay and helps to maintain a healthy weight.

According to Redman, most people can’t believe there are enough pet rabbits to even support this new business, but says they obviously aren’t aware of how many passionate rabbit owners there are, as well as owners of guinea pigs and chinchillas. New and current customers are encouraged to visit http://www.RabbitHoleHay.com to find an easy, informational, and even entertaining site where they can learn about each type of hay for rabbits, tips for rabbit care, and healthy nutrition for rabbits. The ordering process is simple and quick. The alfalfa hay and timothy hay is sold in one, five, 10 and 20 pound increments, is securely packaged in a cardboard box, and shipped directly to the customer.

“Everyone is surprised when they hear we’ve started selling hay on the Internet,” Redman said. “They ask me what we’re up to these days and I tell them, ‘we’re selling the best hay in the world to pet owners online’ and their eyes get huge, like they just saw a talking rabbit dive down a rabbit hole. Since we have some of the best hay in the world right in our back yard it seems like a perfect fit. Plus I’ve always loved hay rides.”

China, Korea, Japan Forestry Agreement is Great news for Environment says FRA

May 18, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

FRA has stated that the signing of a sustainable forestry agreement between China, the Republic of Korea and Japan is an “extremely positive move” in the fight against desertification and deforestation.

Bainbridge Island, WA, May 18, 2012 – Forestry Research Associates (FRA) has stated that the signing of a sustainable forestry agreement between China, the Republic of Korea and Japan is an “extremely positive move” in the fight against desertification and deforestation.

The three nations met at the Fifth Trilateral Summit Meeting over the past two days. They each signed an agreement to try to increase sustainable forestry management in their countries in a move that will help to bring down their carbon emissions as additional trees means more CO2 being absorbed from the atmosphere.

The joint statement of cooperation will ensure that all three nations take the conservation and management of sustainable forests seriously and as part of their wider environmental goals. The statement made by the three countries stated: ‘We, the leaders of the People’s Republic of China, the Republic of Korea and Japan, recognizing that the realization of economic, social and environmental benefits of forests is one of the important means to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) given the renewable, diverse and multi-functional nature of forests.’

They added, ‘We recognized that sustainable forest management is the perpetual theme in ecological improvement and the pursuit of sustainable development, and facilitates efforts to tackle climate change, conserve biodiversity and promote green growth among the three countries.’

FRA, which supports the sustainable management of forests and investment in managed forestry projects such as those run by Greenwood Management in Brazil. The organization’s analysis partner, Peter Collins, stated, “We welcome the news of the this new agreement.”

FRA has long been an advocate of viewing forests as valuable when they are standing as well as when they are harvested and made into timber products. “What countries all over the world are beginning to realise is that trees hold a financial value when they are standing and forming part of a forest due to their carbon absorption qualities. This could soon be worth more than the timber products they could be chopped down to make,” added Mr Collins.

Dublin , Ireland, May 17, 2012 – “Failings of our education system and financial services industry the root cause of financial illiteracy”, says Rich Dad Poor Dad best-selling co-author and speaker Sharon Lechter.

Commenting on the lack of financial literacy, Sharon Lechter said: “We all have to deal with money issues throughout our lives. Unfortunately, the traditional education system fails to equip us with the right mindset, knowledge and skills we need to succeed at managing our own money. It takes a company like Horizon Speakers & Seminars to source and promote speakers like myself to provide the necessary education that the established education and financial services industry largely fails at.”

Commenting further, Lechter says: “No matter who you are, where you live or what your circumstances; whether you are an employee, a housewife, an entrepreneur or business person, you and your family can enrich your lives and secure your financial well-being by developing adequate financial literacy.” says Sharon Lechter.

In 2008, Lechter was appointed to the President’s Advisory Council on Financial Literacy. She is also an Emissary of the Napoleon Hill foundation and CEO of Pay Your Family First.

Commenting further, Lechter said:”Whether it’s simply paying the bills or raising capital for some other personal or business investment, everyone is faced with financial decisions to make. Unfortunately, most people haven’t had the education to allow them to develop their financial IQ to such a level as to ensure their financial well-being”

Sharon’s training provides unique insights and specific steps to boost people’s levels of personal success, their financial IQ and their bank balance! “The 1-Day talk I will be giving with Horizon Speakers & Seminars will focus on providing people with the knowledge, skills and tools people need to ultimately think, act and grow rich,” says Sharon.

Keelan Cunningham, CEO of Horizon Speakers and Seminars (the organisers), commented on the upcoming event with Sharon saying: “We are delighted to host such a world-class authority in the field of personal success and personal finance in both Dublin and London at the end of May. At a time where money issues and finances are centre stage in every household we feel this is a great opportunity for people in both Ireland and the UK to learn from a genuine world-authority on personal success and financial well-being”

Consumer-Driven Deal site, SoRewarding Connects Merchants with Revenue Retention, Customers and Community

May 17, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

SoRewarding merchant members keep 75 percent of deal revenue for life

Denver, Colorado, May 17, 2012 – Denver-based SoRewarding, a new social network that lets consumers create and request their own deals from area businesses, is reinventing the way group buy deal sites work with merchant partners. In the time it takes to set up a merchant profile page on SoRewarding.com, businesses can begin accepting deals requested by their customers…and keeping 75 percent of the profits.

SoRewarding doesn’t impose any pre-negotiated terms or restrictions on deals; instead it allows merchants the freedom to directly accept, reject or counter any deal a customer requests. Merchants can also create and publish custom deals they would like to offer, at any time, in order to best suit their business, and their customer’s needs. And, SoRewarding donates five percent of every deal buy to one of more than a dozen local non-profit partners that each consumer can select to support.

SoRewarding merchant partners benefit from the ability to:

Create and publish deals at their point of need.
* No more time spent working with sales representatives from a thousand different deal companies. Merchants can create customized deals that benefit their business and customers the most.

Receive deal requests automatically.
* Requests from paying customers are sent directly and immediately to the business which can then accept, reject, or counter-offer with the click of a button from a mobile device or at SoRewarding.com.

Enjoy new customers.
* SoRewarding connects businesses with local customers, and provides a forum for direct social networking; building loyalty and keeping them coming back again and again.

Get paid.
* Once a merchant page is created at SoRewarding, there are no other upfront conditions, contracts or terms to begin offering and accepting deals. On the day a deal runs, buyers purchase the deal directly and the merchant receives payment just a few days later.

Connect with the community.
* Each time a deal is purchased, SoRewarding donates to a local non-profit. The business offering the deal will receive recognition for making these donations possible and gain exposure among the supporters of different charity organizations and the community as a whole.

SoRewarding is currently an invitation-only network. Consumers, merchants and non-profits interested in joining should visit www.SoRewarding.com to request an invitation.
