July 28, 2016 – – Irvine, California, – Prostate cancer is the most common male cancer and kills almost 29,000 American men every year. A team of students from the Practical Advantage Communications program at California State University, Fullerton spent 8 weeks developing the event and press plan for the Cancer Journeys Foundation’s 2017 Tour de USA® Road Rally for prostate cancer awareness. The Tour de USA® Road Rally, scheduled for mid-August to September 4th, 2017, will be the longest Road Rally held in the United States.

Practical Advantage Communications is a student-run Agency that serves at the capstone course for students in the advertising, entertainment and tourism communications, and public relations concentrations. The Tour de USA project students were: Ombeline Armand, Allen Fernandez, Quentin Loritte, Charles Nguyen, and Andrew Soto. Mazda Motorsports funded the project and will be providing the MX-5 Miatas that will cross the US in 2017.

“This student team did an absolutely remarkable job on this project,” said Robert Hess, founder and president of the Cancer Journeys Foundation. “We were searching for a really unique project to highlight the importance of prostate cancer testing given the recent rise in advanced prostate cancer cases. We brought this idea to our student team and they just ran with it. The team came with an unbelievable level of creativity and energy,” said Hess.

“There are more than 2 million prostate cancer survivors in the United States right now and 240,000 men learn they have prostate cancer every year. Prostate cancer is highly treatable if found early but, unfortunately, almost 29,000 men die each year of prostate cancer because they didn’t know they had the disease early enough. The Cancer Journeys Foundation created ProstateTracker, a free Internet-based detection system, so that men don’t get caught with a late diagnosis,” said Hess.

According to Hess, “Road rallies are very popular and are a great way to have fun and see the US. The 2017 Tour de USA rally will be the longest road rally every held in the US. I’m really looking forward to taking my MX-5 across the US. I may even try and run the Dustball Rally.”

About The Cancer Journeys Foundation

The Cancer Journeys Foundation provides support to cancer survivors during their cancer journeys and operates ProstateTracker.org, a free prostate cancer early detection system available on the Internet at www.ProstateTracker.org. The CJF also organizes the Tour de USA®, an annual cancer awareness relay ride across the United States to support cancer survivors.

July 28, 2016 – – SEO for Business, based in London, United Kingdom, serves as a premium global SEO services provider. The business has recently extended their services and now provides training workshops for corporate and multinational professionals. The company is led by Sam Adodra, an Amazon best selling author. The workshop focuses on how to carry out search engine optimization (SEO) in house. More details are available at http://seoforbusiness.com.

Sam Adodra says: “We offer services to anyone who wants to boost their rankings, or who wants to achieve page one domination. With mobile browsing growing exponentially in the past few years, the days of placing your advert in telephone directories and generating new business through this medium are long gone. If you want targeted online traffic to your website then you need a strong online presence because customers are now searching for you through their smartphones.”

The aim of the new training workshop is to help businesses boost the authority of their websites. They achieve this by helping websites show up higher in the search engines, as well as increasing the targeted traffic. Interested clients that want to outsource their SEO can choose from one of three packages, Gold, Silver, and Bronze. The Silver package is proving to be the most popular of the three.

“Our Silver Pack gets you more custom content that we will distribute on awesome sites for you,” adds Sam Adodra. “We target five keywords with the domination pack. However, you will probably get more traffic and brand mentions beyond just the five keywords.”

To get the most out of the Silver Pack, the company recommends that clients choose five focus key phrases. SEO for Business will then write a minimum of five original articles, and they will then create over 25 rewritten versions of those articles. Customers have the option of submitting additional content to the original five articles if they wish.

Those who have worked with SEO for Business have been very pleased with the services they have received. “SEO For Business are simply the best in the business,” says Abir Khan on the SEO for Business website. “We’ve outsourced our SEO to them for a number of years.

July 28, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com reports on an incident as reported by SFGate.com during which a 36-year old construction worker from Sonoma was crushed by a steel beam. The fatality occurred while an A-Frame tent that was part of the VIP Lounge at the BottleRock Festival was being dismantled. As the tent was being broken down, an arch fell and hit the man. Unfortunately, he was pronounced dead after being rushed by paramedics to the Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa. An investigation is ongoing by California OSHA investigators to see if any safety regulations were breached.

The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) is a federal regulatory agency that has the onerous task of ensuring the safety of American workers at over 8 million worksites across the country. OSHA has 10 regional offices, and 90 local-area offices in various locations in the United States. As per OSHA, in 2014 the deaths of more than 500 workers were attributed to the “Fatal Four” which the agency identifies as the 4 leading causes of death of construction workers.

As per the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), in 2014 the third leading cause of death for construction workers was individuals being struck by objects or equipment, as was the scenario in Napa. Workers fatally injured after being hit by objects or equipment, one of the “Fatal Four”, totaled 73 individuals in 2014 which equates to over 8 percent of all construction work-related deaths.

Thomas Moverman of Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman sends his condolences to the family of the deceased victim and thanks those who tried to save him. Moverman has also advocated for strengthened safety procedures for the construction industry in order to eliminate some of the tragic accidents that occur all too frequently.

For more information on construction injuries, or for a consultation, contact an attorney with Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman at (646)-846-4496.
