Incite Creative is a Supporting Partner for the Baltimore Library Project Book Drive

Leave a comment

The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation in partnership with Baltimore Reads recently launched a new chapter of the Baltimore Elementary and Middle School Library Project on March 2nd.

Baltimore, MD, March 10, 2012 – The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation in partnership with Baltimore Reads recently launched a new chapter of the Baltimore Elementary and Middle School Library Project on March 2nd. The mission of this multi-year collaborative effort is to design, build, equip and staff new or renovated elementary and middle school libraries in low academic achievement, high-poverty neighborhoods.

Originally launched in December 2011, the initiative’s goal is to raise approximately $3.8 million from community and government partners. At the beginning of March, the project kicked-off its newest phase in honor of Read Across Maryland month by bringing together more than 40 local partners to assist with a book drive. The books are for local school libraries and for students between the ages of 3 – 14 to take home to build their own libraries. Additionally, the Weinberg Foundation announced another $1 million in funding for the second year of the project.

Governor O’Malley was on-hand to speak at the recent event. In attendance were a number of Baltimore-based businesses including Incite Creative Inc, a leading marketing and graphic design firm that specializes in assisting nonprofits. Incite has shown its support for the Library Book Drive as a sponsor and active member of the Library Project advisory committee, in addition to creating the project’s multi-color logo that represents books and the urban landscape. Incite Creative conducted focus groups with age-appropriate children and their parents to help provide the strategy for the logo and other brand enhancing elements also, including print and electronic invitations, book marks, book plates, signage and other marketing collateral.

“We’re honored to play a role in such an important and worthwhile endeavor,” says Incite Creative President, Dina Wasmer. “To see the logo and brand elements leveraged and extended into the architecture of the physical and interior spaces is very rewarding because it adds an extra level of visibility and timelessness to our contributions, and for us, that’s the cherry on top of an already fun project. Participation in the Book Drive was a natural next step in our journey with the project.”

For those who would like to donate books to the drive, they can go to any one of 80 drop-off locations in the Baltimore area or at the State House in Annapolis, and to one of the 20 MVA locations throughout the state.

Sweet Alexis & Lucky Kat TV team up to Showcase Tips and Advice on the Web for Parents Coping with Children’s Food Allergies

Leave a comment

Lucky Kat TV will partner with Michele Fellows, owner of Sweet Alexis Bakery, to deliver tips, information and advice on Lucky Kat TV’s blog

Los Angeles, CA, March 09, 2012 – Lucky Kat TV will partner with Michele Fellows, owner of Sweet Alexis Bakery, to deliver tips, information and advice on Lucky Kat TV’s blog, ( http://luckykattv.com/parents-blog/ ) empowering and connecting parents coping with food allergies in some 3 million children across the United States.

According to the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN):

* Food allergies are on the rise; more than 12 million Americans have food allergies. That’s one in 25, or 4 percent of the population.

* Eight foods account for 90 percent of all food-allergic reactions in the U.S.: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, fish, and shellfish.

* Peanut allergies doubled in children over a five-year period (1997-2002), and food allergies are present the most in young children – one in 17 among those under age 3.

Sweet Alexis, located in Los Osos, California, serves up fresh, homemade cookies, breads, cakes and muffins free of wheat, dairy, tree-nuts and eggs and their derivatives. Fellows named the business for her now 10 years old daughter, Alexis, who suffers from life-threatening food allergies and asthma.

“We have to be vigilant 24/7 to keep Alexis safe. Even casual contact with an allergen could send her into anaphylactic shock. I opened Sweet Alexis to offer her, and other families, delicious, attractive treats they could pack in lunches and bring to parties,” said Fellows.

“We’re really excited to welcome Michele to our team. She’s turned her passion for creating allergen-free treats into a thriving business, and also created a platform for increased awareness in her community. As a guest blogger on our website, she’ll serve up tips, information, recipes, and of course, a bit of fun for parents coping with food allergies both mild and severe,” said Tammy Schroeder, President at LKTV Productions.

Lucky Kat TV.com, an “edutainment” website, offers a safe, secure place for children ages 5 – 10 to learn, play, and create video content to share. During their journey through Katalina Island, children board a cruise ship and navigate the continents, earning points to build their own islands and add the amenities of their choice. Many of the games meet with National Academic Standards. The theme, “Believe in Your Dreams … Anything is Possible!” is introduced through Lucky Kat’s 4 Steps to Success: 1. Dream It! 2. Believe It! 3. Plan It 4. Do It!

In 2012 Lucky Kat TV.com earned a coveted seal of endorsement from Parent Tested, Parent Approved (PTPA). Visit www.luckykattv.com

The GymForge workout app for iPhone and iPod touch supports you with a bunch of preloaded home and gym workouts

*FREE*
Wien, Austria, March 09, 2012 – The GymForge workout app for iPhone and iPod touch supports you with a bunch of preloaded home and gym workouts, a freestyle workout mode and easy to use tracking capabilities. It comes with a detailed history of previous workouts, comprehensive editing options and, of course, GymForge lets you share your workout on Facebook.

GymForge version 1.0 is now available for iPhone and iPod touch devices. There are rumors about a version for Android devices but as of now there are no more dates or details available.

The versioning of the app seems to be worth mentioning as the app has a solid feature set, a really sleek design, and, most important, it really focuses on ease of use. Download, install, and you are ready to go. No need to setup the app and your workout routine upfront. We like that!

The price is another attractive attribute. There are many apps that come in a lite version with a reduced set of functionality. The GymForge app comes for free and with the full range of features. Even better: The app will remain free according to the team GymForge.

Talking about the functional range, we want to outline the feature highlights:

Preloaded Workouts: A library of workouts that actually say what part of your body is going to be trained.

FreeStyle Mode: Pick a muscle group you want to focus on and get a list of related exercises. Pick and go. Tracking starts immediately.

Growing Exercise Library: The current library covers about 140 exercises with a text and image based how to. The list will be updated frequently.

Easy Tracking: Tracking is as easy and fast as it is with paper and pen.

Sharing & Customization: You want to brag about your workout. Share it on Facebook and add a comment, which will be stored with your session in the app.

Sexy & Easy to Use: Attractive graphical design and outstanding interaction design make it fun to use.

The team behind the app is currently working on backend updates in order to push content updates more frequently to the app users. That means more free workouts and exercises. The team is already working with other educated sportsmen on new exercises and workouts.
Furthermore, the app itself will experience some updates and enhancements such as exporting & enhanced social features, data visualization et cetera.

Leave a comment

Participants will learn why there is nothing to fear in the new Integrated Reasoning section coming to the GMAT

Malibu, CA, March 08, 2012 – Veritas Prep, a leading GMAT preparation and graduate school admissions consulting services provider, today announced that it is offering a free online seminar to help prospective MBA students effectively prepare for the next generation of the GMAT. The instructional webinar will give test takers strategies to succeed on the new Integrated Reasoning section, which is being added to the exam in June. The webinar will be held on Wednesday, March 21, 2012, at 6 p.m. PDT.

The forthcoming 30-minute Integrated Reasoning section will replace one of the Analytical Writing Assessment essays and will require test takers to generate solutions as well as select correct answers in order to assess their abilities to combine details and information from multiple sources to solve problems.

“A lot of GMAT students fear the new Integrated Reasoning section of the GMAT and worry the exam will be much harder come June,” said Brian Galvin, Director of Academic Programs at Veritas Prep. “While it will be a little different, it shouldn’t be markedly more difficult. If you have properly prepared for the GMAT, then there is nothing on the new section that should throw you off your game on test day.”

Galvin will lead the webinar and provide tips and strategies, like relative math and sort-and-scan, to help participants solve the questions likely to be seen in the Integrated Reasoning section.

The free one-hour webinar will focus on how to:

* Navigate the GMAT’s sortable charts to make quick decisions

* Read and understand common Integrated Reasoning graphic types

* Minimize wasted time spent on data-driven problems by prioritizing

* Leverage question stems and maximize logic

* Efficiently use relative math to avoid unnecessary calculations

In addition to the webinar, Veritas Prep has also made other resources available, including four types of Integrated Reasoning GMAT sample questions (table analysis, graphics interpretation, multi-source reasoning and two-part analysis) and answers to frequently asked questions, to help prospective MBA students prepare for the new Integrated Reasoning section.
