DietDoc – HCG Diet Doctors

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 15, 2012

Diet Doc hCG Diet Program publishes the findings of their recent patient diet report showing an average of 30 pounds of weight loss (on average) per month.

Weight loss goals are being met all over the Nation, but the most remarkable is Diet Doc’s latest report of 30 pounds in one month. Diet Doc personalizes a weight loss program for each person and utilizes prescription grade HCG and proprietary weight loss products for rapid, sustainable weight loss results.

Diet Doc is a nationwide weight loss program that is revolutionary with their state-of-the-art diet that sheds weight faster than patients have ever reported previously states Julie Wright, president of Diet Doc.

The Diet Doc’s diet difference is in that they personalize a weight loss program for each person based on their health history, age, gender and lifestyle reports Wright. Add to that, the patient consults with diet doctors, weight loss nurses and nutritional coaches weekly and this is the basis for successful claims Wright.

Diet Doc utilizes prescription medications, specifically formulated weight loss shakes, and a unique diet oil. People eat regular grocery store food, but are asked to remove carbohydrates and sugar. A typical day; egg white omelets, shake, unlimited vegetables and a chicken breast, shake, chicken gumbo, then shake again reports Wright.

Diet Doc is a clinically based medically, supervised diet. They do not utilize fad diet techniques, such as the feeding tube diet, ke diet or k-e diet or hCG plus (drops). Their diet doctors rely on a specific, proven weight loss diet that is personalized and highly effective. Also, people might not understand that diets such as the feeding tube diet or k-e diet actually burn muscle which causes loose skin, and changes in the fat within normal parts of the body. Green coffee extract isn’t strong enough reports Wright to burn weight and get the startling results achieved at Diet Doc.

Diet Doc provides medical weight loss to patients across the nation. Their proven techniques have helped thousands of people lose weight, now with reported results of up to 30 pounds per month, safely, with lasting results.

Seattle, Wash. (PRWEB) May 10, 2012

With the rise in Alzheimer’s disease and its special impact on women, more families are celebrating Mother’s Day with moms who have dementia. Nearly two-thirds of the Americans with Alzheimer’s are women, whose greater life expectancy means they are more likely than men to develop dementia. While brunch is a much-savored Mother’s Day tradition, dementia can make dining difficult. An expert offers important tips for honoring Mom with a holiday meal that will be a delicious and delightful experience for all.

“Smell and taste often diminish, making meals less enjoyable and many times leading to loss of interest in food,” said Kelly Scott, vice president of Emeritus Senior Living, the nation’s largest memory care provider. She notes that currently, 16 percent of female Americans age 71 and above have the disease.    

“As dementia progresses, it can also become physically difficult to eat,” Scott said. “Those with the disease may begin to have trouble using utensils. Their depth perception could be affected, making it hard to manage food on a plate and lift it to the mouth. Chewing and swallowing can become problems. But there are a number of ways to address these issues so you and your mother can have a lovely occasion.”

If you’d like to serve your memory-impaired mom a special meal at home on Mother’s Day, Scott says the following approaches can be helpful:

    Plan a menu of your mother’s favorite fare, even if it’s not what you would normally prepare at that time of day, and remind her that she has always loved it. This will help spark her interest in eating.
    Bring the meal out one item at a time so it’s easier to focus on it: for example, first the fruit salad, then the French toast, and then the bacon.
    Create color contrast between the tablecloth, the plates, and the food being served, so each is easy to visually distinguish.
    Set the table with shallow bowls with wide brims rather than flat plates or deep bowls for all of the fare; they’re easy and neat to dine from.
    Provide utensils with large, easy-to-grasp handles.
    Consider dispensing with utensils and offering the meal finger-food style, so that flatware doesn’t have to be managed. An egg dish could become an egg sandwich.
    Give your mother her beverages in the same kind of glasses that others are using, but provide a straw to make them easier to sip.
    If you wish to take your mother out to eat, Scott offers these tips:

    If possible, choose a restaurant that your mother is already familiar with.
    Go at an off-peak time and even consider celebrating on a different day, rather than Mother’s Day Sunday, to reduce the noise and distractions that can come of being in a crowded place.
    Create and bring a menu for your mother to look at that offers just two meal choices, rather than overwhelm her with selecting from the restaurant’s menu.
    Expect that when the food is brought to the table, your mother may not recall what she ordered and might wish to have what you selected. It’s best to let her have your dish, rather than try to remind her that it’s not what she picked.
    Realize that your mother may eat very slowly and don’t try to rush her.

“Mother’s Day is a wonderful and important tradition and Alzheimer’s disease shouldn’t keep you from celebrating with your mother,” Scott said. “The key is thinking ahead to making her dining experience as easy as possible. This way, she and everyone at the table can focus on what matters most, which is sharing special time together on this joyous occasion.”

Turku, Finland (PRWEB UK) 8 May 2012

Sanako Corporation has made an agreement with Toshiba Europe GmbH to provide Sanako Study 500 as part of Toshiba’s SCUOLA TECH project offering in Italy. The SCUOLA TECH is a packaged solution for school teachers and students including hardware, software and service elements in one package tailored to schools’ needs and available infrastructure. Various educational content together with the classroom management software, Sanako Study 500, are pre-installed on the PCs by Toshiba’s partners. The solution also includes Antivirus–Notebooks–insurance, maintenance on site, remote–assistance for 3 years and financing at zero rate for 10 months.

“By offering an integrated solution Toshiba wants to make purchasing and usage of technology easy for the schools. We chose Sanako as our partner because of the positive experiences Toshiba has had in other European countries, and because of the positive feedback received from our customers and partners in Italy during the tests,” says Lino Chironna, Expert Education Business at Toshiba.

“Over time using digital technology to provide individualised teaching for students will improve their learning results and motivation. Hence, we are happy to be part of Toshiba’s project which will make it easier for schools to utilize all the advantages technology has to offer. As an expert in language learning software we believe that the project will also set the ground for technology aided language learning in Italian classrooms and also outside schools, creating future potential for us,” says Tobias Elgh, CEO at Sanako.

In the process of technology modernization in Italian schools one has to take into account that the schools and teachers are independent in their teaching means, methods and tools. This leads to various alternatives needed in schools due to different situations and backgrounds.

“Study 500 is an ideal solution for a total package like Toshiba’s SCUOLA TECH. Study 500 is easy and intuitive to use even if you do not have much experience of computers. It can be implemented with many systems and it requires little maintenance, just to name few of Study 500’s advantages,” says Klaus Koponen, SVP Sales and Marketing at Sanako.

Sanako Study 500 makes classroom management easy for teachers. Class sizes are no longer a problem, and using the internet will not create distractions during the lessons. With Study 500 it is as easy as teaching a single student to enable an entire class to participate in meaningful activities whilst the teacher remains in complete control. The software also includes tools for creating quick polls, or asking for student feedback.

MobiDEEP

(PRWEB) April 23, 2012

Think adult apps and you probably won’t be able to name a single one, no matter if you are a fan of them or not. With iPhone’s App Store openly fighting them, Android’s Google Play boycotting them and all the other stores, but Mikandi, being reluctant to expand their brand by hosting mature content, adult apps consist merely in the browsable mobile versions of adult sites; add to that the fear of being caught with full age stuff installed on the phone and the safety issues related to kids and minors often playing with our devices and it becomes clear why the adult industry has not exploited the apps market yet.

With all this in mind, adult performer Sabrina Deep, through her multimedia production label Fanstalker, has released MobiDEEP, the first adult app equipped with a stealth system which makes it invisible and inaccessible to curious eyes.

“The mobile phone is one of the most personal items we carry around, but it’s also the most exposed one to the external world: kids at home, partners, friends, collegues at work, even strangers have had access to our mobile phone at least once,” says Sabrina Deep. “It’s pretty normal that mobile owners want to keep a certain kind of content on their phone to a minimum. But with MobiDEEP and its stealth system someone can finally enjoy a multi-features, dynamic adult application on their phone while keeping it discreet and private. We call it PMS system or Protected Mobile Sex system and we believe that it’s going to set a standard in the soon-to-expand adult apps market.”

The PMS system makes the app 100% hidden on the device by user’s request; when the application is in invisible mode, nobody can find it or launch it on the phone; only the owner knows about it and can launch it dialing a five digit secret code which can be changed at any time: nobody will ever know that the user watches adult content, has downloaded adult videos and pictures or has shot compromising pictures with the mobile’s camera. All the videos and pictures handled via MobiDEEP, are not found by the Media Finder or by any other app installed on the device.

“We didn’t just want to code the best adult app for Android,” says Fabio Yallop, Special Projects Executive of Fanstalker. “We wanted also to make it safe to use. We believe that full age people have the right to make adult choices and the freedom of installing adult applications on their mobile phones should be defended, as long as it does not break any laws; equally, though, it’s paramount that x-rated apps developers invest time, money and resources to equip their product with security features aimed at keeping it out of the reach of children and other individuals who might find mature content disturbing.

MobiDEEP has been developed with safety and privacy in mind and we believe that this turn could be a milestone towards rethinking Google Play policy about adult apps: we can and should work all together to raise those apps safety standards while we continue to treat adults as such.”

MobiDEEP is a free, fully featured, dynamic and interactive app which brings adult performer Sabrina Deep straight into her fans mobile phones. With features such as the Adultstar GPS which allows the user to track at any time Miss Deep’s location or the untraceable slideshow player which plays Sabrina’s videos and images accompanied by a soundtrack chosen by the user or the 3D flipping news gadget to know in real time what Sabrina is up to, MobiDEEP promises to give more than one reason to remain installed on a mobile phone and to be used and enjoyed each and every day. There is even a function to call Miss Deep’s phone and to speak with her.

About the Company

Fanstalker is a mature audience oriented multimedia production company based in Italy and Canada. Founded in 2011, its mobile division aims at becoming the industry leader in developing innovative applications which feature high standards of privacy.

About Sabrina Deep

Sabrina Deep, a pioneer in turning the table in the relationship between adult performers and their fans, has won several awards and accolades during her career; also the founder and CEO of Fanstalker, as a performer she has recently announced that she will give all her future winnings from adult contests to charities and that she aims at donating up to 17,000$ to the St. Jude Children research hospital of Los Angeles, just from contests she is in in April.

MobiDEEP and its full list of features can be found at the Fanstalker Adult Mobile, GetJar, Mikandi and many other fine Android marketplace web and mobile sites.

Reston, Virginia (PRWEB) April 19, 2012

For the twelfth year in a row, Hopecam will be hosting the annual Hopecam 5K Run/Walk on Sunday, May 6, to benefit the charity’s program. Since 2003 Hopecam, Inc., a 501c(3) nonprofit charitable organization, has helped more than 225 hospitalized or homebound children cope with loneliness and isolation as they battle cancer or other life-threatening illnesses. All services are provided completely free of charge to the families and school partners.

Honored guests of this year’s Hopecam 12K are Stefano Rocca and Francisco Granados. Stefano is an 8 year old boy in 2nd grade at Westbriar Elementary School (Fairfax County Public Schools) in Vienna, VA. Stefano is battling leukemia. Francisco is a 10 year old boy in 4th grade at Flintstone Elementary School (Prince George’s County Public Schools) in Oxon Hill, MD. Francisco is battling lymphoma.

Event details:

Hopecam 5K Run/Walk

Sunday, May 6, 2012

Sign in: 7:30am

Race starts: 8:00am

Register online: http://www.hopecam.org/ournews/events/hopecam-5k

Location: 1890 Preston White Drive, Reston, VA

Fee: $ 25 ($ 10 – age 12 and under)

All pre-registered participants will receive a complimentary t-shirt & goodie bag. The Hopecam 5K will be professionally timed, and features post-race DJ entertainment and refreshments. Families are encouraged to participate – strollers are welcome.

Hopecam connects hospitalized and homebound children undergoing long term treatment with their teachers, classmates, family and friends by providing laptops, high speed internet and web cameras. All services are provided completely free of charge to the families. Hopecam provides this service through partnering with area hospitals (Children National Medical Center; Inova Fairfax; NIH; Johns Hopkins, etc.), social workers and dozens of school districts in Virginia, DC and Maryland.

Research suggests that isolation and loneliness are disruptive and devastating for homebound and hospitalized children especially children battling a long term illness and treatment. They are separated from their friends at school and lose most social interaction. Hopecam bridges that gap by providing each child with a laptop, web camera and a corresponding setup in his or her classroom. The charity coordinates with school administrators to successfully connect each child with his or her school.

For more information about Hopecam’s 12th Annual 5K Run/Walk or the charity, visit the website at http://www.hopecam.org

About Hopecam

Hopecam connects homebound children undergoing treatment for cancer, and other life-threatening illnesses with their friends at school using laptops, high speed internet connections and web cameras. Recognizing the critical need for socialization, Hopecam seeks to bridge the lonely divide between homebound children and their friends at school during this frightening time. Staying connected to school significantly reduces the stress of re–entry when treatment is completed and children resume a normal life. Since its founding in 2003 by a parent whose child was diagnosed with leukemia, Hopecam has connected over 225 children with their friends, classmates and families.

(PRWEB) April 15, 2012

One of the main advantages offered by the modern day laptop or notebook is portability. Portability is a great feature of a laptop for everyone, even if it is just someone who wants to watch a film lying on top of their bed. However laptop portability and mobility is particularly useful for students and travelling business people who are constantly on the move. So what’s the downside? Well as I recently round out laptop screens can be very fragile and easily broken, with thousands of people each and every day needing to replace their original screen.

As a spokesman from Laptop Power UK commented, ‘Replacing cracked laptop screens due to the laptop having been dropped is the most common repair we see in our stores and they are the more commonly purchased parts in our online stores. Indeed the problem is getting worse. Manufacturers are now making screens thinner and thinner with the adoption of LED backlit technology, which whilst great for picture quality and portability, makes it more likely that sourcing a laptop screen replacement is something the average person is going to have to do at some point in their life’.

Laptop Power UK stocks the entire range of replacement laptop screens including HP laptop screens, Toshiba laptop screens and Acer laptop screens. Compatibility issues, which are a significant issue, are clearly resolved on their website with the use of an easy to use laptop screen configurator database on their website. Simply find the make and model of your laptop (which is usually to be found either on the screen frame or underneath the laptop) type it into the search function. You will then be presented with the cost of receiving the next day delivery of the correct laptop screen for your machine. It doesn’t matter whether you are looking for an 8.9” netbook screen or an 18.4” double backlight screen for your gaming laptop – it is all on the Laptop Power UK website, and most importantly it is all clearly laid out for a non-technical user to clearly and logically navigate.

About Laptop Power UK:

Laptop Power UK was launched by Andrew Roughley and Mark Roughley. As well as establishing itself and the leading distributor of OEM consumer electronic equipment, the Company has diversified into retail repairs, warranty management projects, reverse logistics and asset recovery.

Workout at Work with TrekDesk Treadmill Desk

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) April 10, 2012

A new study from Finland’s University of Jyvaskyla’s Department of Biology of Physical Activity confirmed a growing body of evidence that exercise alone cannot undue the health damages of sedentary office environments. The study confirmed that the critical health component of any employer’s wellness campaign should be targeted toward decreasing the amount of sedentary hours during the work day. TrekDesk Treadmill Desks essentially allow employees a workout at work by encouraging continual movement throughout the day.

Although regular exercise has well defined and chronicled health benefits, prolonged daily sedentary periods cause a number of major health risks despite previous physical activity during the day.

The Finnish study measured muscle activity in adult males and females, measuring muscle activity and heart rate during exercise and non-exercise periods. Study results uncovered that 30 to 150 minutes of exercise increased energy consumption but did not decrease muscle inactivity during the non-exercise periods of the day. Researchers also discovered than muscles remain inactive on average 70% or our waking hours, irrespective of whether the day involved a period of fitness training.

Conclusions? The study authors stressed that exercise though critical to health must be combined with an emphasis on deterring the amount of hours spent sitting during the day.

“Muscle activity throughout the day involving major muscle groups is critical to overall health and mood,” stated Steve Bordley, CEO of TrekDesk Treadmill Desks. “Wellness programs incorporating exercise training for employees are important but if they are not combined with a plan to attack the health risks of an extended sedentary work day, their impact is limited at best.”

About TrekDesk Treadmill Desks: Designed to fit any existing treadmill, TrekDesk treadmill desk is an affordable, full sized, height adjustable workstation that allows individuals the opportunity to gain the necessary amount of exercise daily to maintain health, prevent disease, strengthen muscles, boost mood and productivity, without requiring additional time during the day or extra motivation. Walk for you, walk for others.
