Annual Shor And Levin Client Appreciation Day Helps To Uplift The Disabled To A Better World

July 16, 2015 – – The Bulldog Lawyers, a law firm in Jenkintown, PA, will hold their annual Shor and Levin Client Appreciation day on July 24, 2015. Over 500 clients and their families are expected to attend the annual event. While it is held to show appreciation to the Shor and Levin clients, it is also an opportunity to help uplift the disabled to a better world.

“Our annual event has always been a great success and we expect no different from this one,” says Lawrence Levin, Esquire. “This year, we are focused on uplifting the disabled to a better world.”

The event will start at 10:30 am at the Knoebels Amusement Park in Elysburg, PA. It includes food and beverages, giveaways, raffles, face painting, a fortune teller, and amusement park tickets. Essentially, it is a day of fun for all, regardless of age, and clients are encouraged to bring their entire family.

The Bulldog Lawyers focus specifically on workers compensation law. They represent people who have suffered a job-related illness or a workplace injury, and help them bring this to a successful closure. They have represented thousands of people over the year, many of whom have suffered permanent disabilities as a result of their accidents. This year’s client appreciation day wants to highlight this, bringing attention to the fact that a better world is possible, particularly for disabled people.

Last year’s client appreciation day was very well received, as were those in the past. “Wonderful day had by all!” says Michele Klug Evans. “Good times!” The Bulldog Lawyers aim to host at least one client appreciation day per year, and they have had some years where they have been able to host several. It is their way to say thank you for the trust their clients place in them, and a way for their clients to just forget about their workplace illness or injury for a day and enjoy some fun times with their family.

The company has built a strong reputation of fighting tooth and nail for their clients. Every avenue is explored in order to find a resolution to the problem that is both fair and beneficial to the injured party.

July 16, 2015 – – Zombie Cajun, a business that sells authentic Cajun hot sauce, is proud to announce that the Antidote hot sauce has been awarded 3rd place in the 2015 NYC Hot Sauce Expo Screaming Mi Mi Award in the Habanero Sauce division. Antidote is included in the company’s popular Zombie Cajun Hot Sauce Gourmet Gifts Basket Set, which is available on Amazon. The said product was narrowly beaten by Dirty Dicks’ Dirty Dicks and Frankie V’s Habanero Classic Recipe. Zombie Cajun couldn’t be happier with the result.

Ricky Hooter from Zombie Cajun comments, “The Screaming Mi Mi competition is a tough competition. Their slogan is ‘You Think You Make The Best? Then Win The Best,’ which shows just how much quality they expect from their entrants. Winning third place in the habanero division is more than we could have wished for.”

The Antidote is an extra strength conversion hot sauce. The company describes it as ‘hot sauce on steroids,’ which is specifically designed for people who truly like it flaming hot. It uses a superior blend of both habanero and cayenne peppers and is rated 10 out of 10 for heat. The fact that the jury at the Mi Mi Competition agrees is quite an honor indeed.

Zombie Cajun really is taking the world by storm, because the Mi Mi Competition is not the only competition they have won. They have also earned silver in a packaging design competition. Ricky Hooter adds, “Our packaging design for Zombie Cajun Hot Sauce won SILVER at the ADDY awards last weekend! Nice to see a vision finally become reality and the outcome even better than you imagined!”

The hot sauce set includes four bottles of flaming hot, original Cajun recipes. The fours sauces are the Zombie Cajun Hot Sauce, the Zombie Cajun ‘The Antidote’, the Zombie Cajun Garlic (Dual Protection) Hot Sauce, and the Zombie Cajun “Lagniappe (Lan-Yap)” Hot Pepper Sauce. Each of these sauces have different strengths, but all of them are highly popular, which is also shown in the various positive reviews they have received. On a scale of one to ten for heat, the sauces range between 3 and an eye-watering 10.

ICN Blasts Tengasco’s 14D-9 Responses – Urges Shareholders to Tender Shares at Managements Lack of Accountability & Performance

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / July 16, 2015 / ICN Fund I LLC has indicated despite the rejection of their tender offer from the board and management of Tengasco (NYSE MKT: TGC), ICN is moving forward with its tender offer for up to 100% of the outstanding common stock of TGC.

“It is important to note Tengasco has suffered a 91% decrease in shareholder value since Peter Salas, its current Chairman, joined the board of Tengasco as a director.(1) This performance can no longer be tolerated in a public company setting. The Chairman’s performance must be accountable to its shareholders,” says Rodney D. Giles, Manager of Insert Company Name LLC, and the Managing Member of ICN Fund I LLC. Mr. Giles goes on to state “In my opinion, Mr. Salas has not created value for its shareholders and has only clouded the company with insider transactions between Tengasco and his other companies, including Hoactzin.”

TGC has been operating with an interim CEO, who also serves as the companies CFO. TGC has not announced an active search for a CEO since Jeff Bailey left TGC on June 28, 2013.

Giles further states, “The current interim-CEO & CFO, Michael Rugen owns zero stock in TGC, his options are severely underwater and will likely expire in a few months worthless. ICN does not believe the interest of the current management & board is aligned with that of the shareholders at large.”

Tengasco has been clouded with concerns and conflicts from its shareholders and including the SEC over insider transactions between Hoactzin, a company controlled by Mr. Salas, TGC’s Chairman as demonstrated in the comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission dated January 10, 2014.

“Between the performance of Tengasco and the conflicts that have been discussed regarding Mr. Salas, something has to change with Tengasco. As a shareholder, we start to question when the management & board are operating in their best interest or in the best interest of the shareholders. As a 5.1% shareholder in the company, we looked at various options and the only option we believe that could net us a positive outcome is the tender offer as we have done. If ICN’s offer of a 20% premium over the previous days closing price is not good enough, then I ask the board to provide a better offer,” says Giles.

About ICN Fund I LLC

ICN Fund I LLC is a Houston based asset holding company led by Rodney D. Giles, the Manager of its Managing Member, Insert Company Name LLC.

(1) Based on TGC’s latest 10-K stating Salas joined on the board 10/08/2002 with the historical closing price of $2.35, the previous days close prior to ICN submitting its tender offer was $0.228.

Distracted Driving Month

Dallas, Texas / Submit Press Release 123 /

Having seen the injuries that can result from distraction-affected crashes, Ms. Witherite hopes that all Texans pay attention to campaigns aimed at preventing distracted driving.

One such campaign is the federal “U Drive. U Text. U Pay.” National Distracted Driving Enforcement Campaign. For a week in April, state and local law enforcement agents aggressively ticket drivers who are texting or otherwise using their mobile phones in states where such actions are illegal. The new awareness effort is supported by a national television, radio, and digital advertising campaign. This campaign reminds Americans of the deadly consequences of distracted driving and of the financial penalties for violating state distracted driving laws. Currently 45 states ban text messaging for drivers of all ages; other states ban cell phone use by novice drivers.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration data shows that at least 3,000 people were killed in crashes involving distracted drivers in 2013 and that approximately 424,000 Americans were injured in distraction-affected crashes in 2013. More statistical facts:

Ten percent of all drivers aged 15 to 19 years old who were involved in fatal crashes were reported as distracted at the time of the crashes. This age group has the largest proportion of drivers who were reported as distracted when involved in crashes.
244 Americans aged 15 to 19 were killed in distraction-affected crashes.
In 2013, 480 pedestrians were killed in distraction-affected crashes.

“Wow” Cruise Activities That Will Thrill Your Children and Transform Your Idea of the Family Cruise Experience

The Magical Fairytale of Hobbiton, Adventures With Pirates, Shark Week at Sea, Dog Sledding, Royal Tea and Giant Board Games

DETROIT – July 16, 2015 – Family-friendly cruising has risen to new levels in recent years, with scores of new programs and amenities designed with families in mind. From giant-sized versions of board games, to sled dog camp, Royal Court Tea and scuba expeditions, the lines have something to match every family’s ideas of fun and adventure.

CruiseCompete member-agents are the most well-educated, forward-thinking and trusted cruise specialists in the industry, and they assist every day in helping their clients create the ultimate family cruise vacation. Part of this process involves asking CruiseCompete users about the most exciting part of their family cruise vacation. Survey feedback indicates that the cruise lines’ family-specific programs and activities top the list.

Here are just some of the CruiseCompete users’ favorite programs and activities by type of cruise line:

Ultra-Luxury Cruise Lines:

Crystal Cruises: Crystal Cruises offers swimming pools and a theater onboard their ships and has a variety of exciting shore excursions that families will love. Perhaps the top of the list is Crystal Cruises “Exclusive Evening in ‘Middle-Earth’: The Hobbiton Movie Set After Hours” where participants travel 90 minutes from the pier in Auckland, New Zealand, to the Hobbiton Movie Set & Farm.

A description of the excursion, straight from Crystal Cruises, reads:

Upon arrival, you will be treated to a guided walking exploration of the picturesque countryside, which has been opened “after hours” for Crystal guests. Admiring the beautiful setting, you will come to understand why director Peter Jackson, when flying over the Alexander family farm during a search for filming locations in 1998, selected this spot for Hobbiton.

Without roads, buildings or power lines, this location was indeed ideal for the portrayal of Middle-earth. For filming, however, much was needed to be done. Site construction began in March 1999. Heavy earthmoving equipment provided by the New Zealand Army was pressed into service to build a road into the site. Hedges and trees were brought in, gardens were planted, 37 hobbit holes were created, and even the artificial leaves for the oak tree overlooking Bag End were painstakingly put in place, one by one.

The result, as you will see, is both fanciful and stunning. The set was rebuilt in 2011 for The Hobbit prequel, complete with hobbit holes, gardens, the bridge, the Mill and the Green Dragon. During your visit, you surely will be impressed by the skill of the set makers as you step into this spectacular world with views across the verdant landscape to the Kaimai Ranges.

After your guided exploration, take a seat in the area outside the Green Dragon Inn, overlooking the small lake and the Mill. Stepping deeper into the World of The Hobbit and Middle Earth, enjoy a delicious barbecue dinner served by locals adorned in Lord of the Rings inspired attire.

With dusk falling, your magical evening draws to a close as you re-join your motor coach and return to civilization.

Crystal Cruises is also offering a new Crystal Family Memories Program on select sailings. The offer (complimentary with 6 full-fare, full-payment guests) is as follows:

• $200 per person shipboard credit (maximum 2 per stateroom)

W12 — The Look and Layout of a Meeting Room is Hugely Important

A meeting room with lots of daylight is best for productivity as demonstrated by a recent study

United Kingdom – 16 July, 2015 – Most companies have a number of meetings each week. They are an effective way of understanding progress and are where most business decisions are made. As such, it is hugely important to find the right environment in order to get the most out of a meeting.

A recent study by the World GBC shows that a meeting room with lots of daylight boosts productivity substantially. Tony Steedman from W12 Conferences said that “Daylight is great for productivity. If a room is dark and dreary, you don’t feel like working and it shows.”

John Alker, for the UK Green Building Council, quotes a report from the World GBC stating that a room with good ventilation, daylight, and a nice look and feel and layout make a huge difference in the world of business. As a result of the finding of the recent study, the GBC has launched a year-long project that looks at how this can be transferred into financial benefit.

An excellent venue with meeting rooms for hire in London of varying size, all with plenty of daylight is W12 Conferences. Based close to East Acton tube station, W12 Conferences is a fully equipped venue with flexible conference facilities with a qualified and experienced administration team that is perfect for events between 10 and 150 delegates.

Tony Steedman went on to say “It is important to find event space that provides the best environment for you to do business. I think W12 does exactly that with state of the art conference and meeting rooms at an affordable price.”
