Spy Novels Author Roger Croft Has Released His Newest Book, ‘The Algerian Hoax’

"The Algerian Hoax" is the Fifth Novel in Croft's Popular Michael Vaux Spy Series

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2020 / Author Roger Croft is pleased to announce the launch of his newest book, "The Algerian Hoax." The book is the fifth release in Croft's popular Michael Vaux spy novel series.

To learn more about "The Algerian Hoax," which can be purchased on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and at Books a Million, please check out https://rogercroft.com/the-algerian-hoax/.

As Croft noted, fans of the Michael Vaux series should enjoy his latest spy novel, which starts off with top officials at MI6, Britain's intelligence agency, suspecting that one of their senior operatives has betrayed them. Michael Vaux comes under close scrutiny by Secret Service Intelligence in the wake of anonymous charges of betrayal and double-dealing.

Readers of "The Algerian Hoax" will be on the edge of their seats as they follow along with Vaux as he is ordered to fly to Marseille as an undercover agent to probe an alleged terrorist plot; as Croft noted, this is all part of the MI6's top brass' plan to entrap Vaux in an anti-terrorist operation.

Even though Croft released "The Algerian Hoax" just recently, it is already getting a lot of positive attention from fans of the Michael Vaux series and spy novels in general, as the following excerpt from the book makes clear:

"In the distance he could hear the subdued rumblings of the late-night traffic around the harbor. The narrow, darkened streets were deserted except for couples who seemed reluctant to go home and listless young men hawking drugs to any aimless punter who looked interested or bored. Vaux looked up at the shabby, shuttered building. Nothing had changed since his earlier reconnaissance.

"But then he saw it: through a sash window on the third floor-a glimmer of light that projected upwards to a yellowed ceiling. He stood on the other side of the street and watched. There was no movement and no hint of any activity. He walked through the small cobbled front garden towards the door: withered plants in old clay flower pots served as sentries to the narrow entrance, painted blue many moons ago, faded and blistered by the hot sun. Vaux looked for a bell push. Suddenly the door opened.

"A tall thin man in a long, striped cotton thobe, gave a slight bow and gestured with his arm for Vaux to enter. In the sepulchral blue-tiled foyer, the man silently gestured again towards the narrow staircase. Vaux nodded as the old man lightly brushed past him to climb the stairs and presumably to the man Craw had described as the key contact in what he called the ‘multinational effort' to support MI6's Operation Mascara.

"A light knock at the door, followed by two more in rapid succession. He saw a dark, bulky figure sitting at a small desk at the far side of the room. An anglepoise lamp threw a round, bright light on the leather surface and effectively obscured the man's face in the surrounding gloom.

"‘Ah, Westropp! You don't know me but I've heard a lot about you! My assistant, Mustafa, had noticed you loitering in front of the house. So all is well.'"

About Roger Croft:

Roger Croft was born in Bushey, Hertfordshire, England. Following national service, Croft landed his first job in journalism with London's Daily Mail where he worked on the City (financial) staff under legendary editor Patrick Sergeant, who taught him the basics of popular journalism. Croft went on to work at a number of other publications and enjoyed a long career before switching gears to write spy novels. Since he quit the grind of daily journalism, Croft has toured the world for novel ideas. For more information, please visit http://www.rogercroft.com.

Real Estate Investor Winston Deloney is Featured in an Article on the Space Coast Daily Website

In the New Article, Deloney Shared Common Mistakes that All Landlords Should Try to Avoid

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2020 / Winston Deloney, a real estate investor and entrepreneur based in Chicago, Illinois, is pleased to announce that he was recently featured in an article on the Space Coast Daily website.

To read the new article, which is titled "Real Estate Expert Winston Deloney Shares Common Mistakes All Landlords Should Avoid" in its entirety, please check out https://spacecoastdaily.com/2020/08/real-estate-expert-winston-deloney-shares-common-mistakes-all-landlords-should-avoid/.

As Deloney told the author of the article, real estate investors who own rental properties are also typically the landlord. For people who are new to the world of real estate investing, this can be a challenging time as they learn to navigate the ins and outs of their role as landlord.

In order to help new landlords, as well as established ones who are facing issues with their tenants, Deloney was happy to share some common mistakes that all landlords should avoid.

For example, Deloney said that not being strict with tenant screenings is a common problem, especially with newbies to the landlord role. In order to quickly rent out housing, it may be tempting to fill the units with anyone who walks in the door.

As Deloney noted, acting in haste can actually end up costing landlords a lot of money in the long run.

"Taking the time and effort to carefully screen your tenants allows you to weed through ones who may not have stable jobs, adequate income, or who may have a history of things like property damage," he said.

Another common issue that can come back to haunt new landlords is not being knowledgeable about rental, tenant and landlord laws. While it may seem like a tall order to be up on these types of laws, Deloney said studying them will help landlords to know when they can legally do, what their tenants can legally do and what protocols must be followed.

Trying to avoid hiring professionals to complete needed tasks on the property is another common mistake that many landlords make, Deloney said. Even those who are great at DIY projects can fall behind in their work, and the property can suffer as a result.

"Landlords may be hesitant to want to call in professionals, because they think of the cost. But as problems escalate without being properly solved, they'll become more and more costly to fix," he said in the article.

Life Coach And Motivational Speaker, Billy Giannouloudis, Shares How He Is Helping Others Unlock Their Potential To Become The Person They Were Meant To Be

MANSFIELD, MA / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2020 / Take the next step to live the life you've dreamed of, achieve your goals and harness your personal power with Billy G Life Coaching.

Born and raised in Mansfield, MA, Billy always knew he wanted to pursue a career in which he could help people. Although he didn't know exactly what that path may be, he was clear in his desire to make a difference in the lives of others. He got his first motivational speaking opportunity as early as his senior year of highschool when after having witnessed him give another speech, the school's soccer coach invited him to speak to the struggling team, hopeful that he may be able to motivate the players to turn the season around. The intended result was accomplished; after Billy spoke to the team, they would go on to produce a seven game winning streak, get out of their losing slump and eventually make it into the semi-finals. While Billy was thrilled at the impact he had been able to have on the team, he still didn't have a clear vision for how motivational speaking could fit into his life.

 

The next year he enrolled in Bridgewater State University where he elected to study chemistry. Although he enjoyed his courses, he found himself continuously drawn to psychology and matters of the mind. Realizing the potential to help people reset their mindset through therapy, he switched his major to psychology and went on to graduate with a degree.

Shortly after graduating, Billy experienced a series of events that left him feeling lost and hopeless. When his relationship ended, his grandmother passed away, family struggles and the pressures of work seeming insurmountable, Billy found himself alone on a Saturday evening, mind whirling about what his next steps may be. Looking for distraction or perhaps divine intervention, Billy googled Tony Robbins. A quick search turned up a course that Tony Robbins was hosting that would train others in the same life coaching techniques that Robbins utilized daily. It was as if something had clicked in Billy's mind and he knew instantly that this was the path he was meant to pursue.

Although he was passionate about the learning he was undergoing and the skills he was obtaining through Tony Robbins' training, Billy still felt as though something was missing from his life. When a stranger, now his best friend, MJ, found him in the gym, emotional, broken and yet still trying to rep out squats and power through, he invited him to church; an invitation that would alter the course of his life forever. Through going to church with MJ, Billy found God and realized that this had been the missing puzzle piece all along. As soon as he began to turn to God for guidance, instead of relying on himself, things began to fall into place.

Today, Billy's passions are multifaceted, he is a Strategic Intervention Life Coach, motivational speaker and therapeutic mentor, all offerings exist under the umbrella of Billy G Life Coaching. When offering life coaching services to clients, Billy employs Strategic Intervention, a method that encourages people to take immediate and strategic action in their lives to pursue their goals, meet their needs and achieve a more fulfilling lifestyle. Billy is confident that by shifting your mindset, you can reprogram your thinking to unlock your personal growth potential and find success in all areas of your life. After a client has begun their personal growth journey, they are ready to discover the personal power that lies within. Billy provides clients with the tools and strategies to harness that personal power for optimal success.

As Billy's motivational speaking abilities have developed over the years, he found himself back in the same highschool soccer locker room, at the behest of the same soccer coach, nearly a decade later. Billy gave another rousing speech to the team, who would go on to win the championship game. Billy does not credit himself for their win, rather he shares that he simply gave them the tools to unlock what was within them all along. A taste of Billy's motivation can be accessed by anyone, through his YouTube channel Once a Week with Billy G.

When Billy is not life coaching or speaking, he is passionate about working with underserved communities through providing one on one therapeutic mentorship to kids ranging from 5 to 18. Billy's methods with children differ from his life coaching tactics as he seeks to meet the kids wherever they are and establish a comfortable environment that encourages kids to open up and work through problems in a safe space. Billy is flexible in his approach, sharing that one day he may spend a session drawing with a young child and discussing their homelife, while the next day he may head to the courts for a round of basketball with a teen, simply to get them talking.

Whether he is coaching, speaking or mentoring kids, it is clear that Billy is living out his childhood goal of helping others. According to Billy, this is only the beginning, and he looks forward optimistically to the ways in which he will grow his coaching business in the years to come and continue to help as many people as possible with his motto: "No Doubt Absolute Faith."

Top Car Insurance Discounts Drivers Should Never Miss

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2020 / Compare-autoinsurance.org (http://compare-autoinsurance.org/) is a top auto insurance brokerage website, providing car insurance quotes online from trustworthy agencies all over the United States. This website released an online guide that presents the most valuable car insurance discounts and how to get them.

Car insurance discounts make a policyholder's life easier. The good news is that there are many discounts available on the market. But each company has its own rules for obtaining them. So, always ask the insurer to provide a list with offered discounts and requirements. Furthermore, drivers can check if they qualify for some discounts when using online quotes. Visit http://compare-autoinsurance.org to get free car insurance quotes from top-rated insurance companies all over the United States.

Bundling policies. When combining multiple insurance types or insuring multiple vehicles under the same contract, the policyholder will get a discount. The value of the discount varies by the insurance company. Generally, the more business the policy holder brings to the company, the bigger the discount will be. In some cases, the discount can be as high as 20%. In the long term, the policyholder can save thousands of dollars. Most online questionnaires highlight the bundling options and how much can be saved.
Defensive driving discounts. Drivers can get an insurance discount for studying well and passing defensive driving exams. However, they will get discounts only if they graduate in approved courses. Insurance companies offer this type of course, so always check first if the current provider offers defensive driving courses. When getting online quotes, users are usually asked if they have participated in defensive driving programs or they are willing to participate.
Safety gear discount. Having the right safety equipment can trim insurance costs. The list of eligible items for this discount includes immobilizers, lane departure systems, hi-quality airbags and seatbelts, head and kneed protection. Each company may use a different name for this discount/ When getting online quotes, drivers are asked if the car has safety or anti-theft devices installed.
Low mileage discount. Being less exposed to accidents will significantly lower insurance costs. The rule for obtaining this discount is simple: drive less than a certain number of miles. The average annual mileage is 12.000. Anything below that will qualify the driver for a discount. Online questionnaires ask the user to approximate the annual mileage or daily mileage.

"Insurance companies offer a great number of discounts. Drivers should check for how many they qualify and ask for a price update", said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Compare-autoinsurance.org is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes.

Hancock Jaffe Announces One Year Follow-up Data on Two Additional VenoValve Patients

VenoValve Patients Continue to Show Significant Improvement at One Year

IRVINE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2020 / Hancock Jaffe Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ:HJLI, HJLIW), a developer of medical devices that restore cardiac and vascular health, announced today that two additional VenoValve patients from HJLI's first-in-man, clinical study in Colombia have now reached the one-year milestone following VenoValve surgery, and that chronic venous insufficiency ("CVI") has significantly improved in both patients when compared to pre-surgery levels. For the two additional patients that are now one-year post VenoValve surgery, including one patient that is 86 years old, reflux (the backwards flow of blood) has improved an average of 62%, Venous Clinical Severity Scores ("VCSSs") have improved an average of 42%, and pain, as measured on a visual analog scale ("VAS") improved an average of 79%.

Eight VenoValve patients have now completed the one-year first-in-human trial. For the seven patients with working VenoValves, reflux, VCSS, and VAS are 57%, 55%, and 64% respectively, at one year, compared to pre-surgery levels. On average, the seven patients showed an 8 point improvement in VCSS scores at one year, compared to pre-surgery levels. In one patient, the VenoValve stopped working (occluded) after 90 days due to the patient's failure to continue to take the appropriate dosage of anticoagulation medication.

The improvements in VCSS scores is significant and indicates that VenoValve patients who had severe CVI pre-surgery, now have mild CVI or the complete absence of disease at one-year post surgery. VCSS scores are commonly used to objectively assess clinical outcomes in the treatment of venous disease, and include ten characteristics including pain, inflammation, skin changes such as pigmentation and induration, the number of active ulcers, ulcer duration and ulcer size. None of the VenoValve patients experienced ulcer recurrence during the one-year period post-surgery. Venous ulcer recurrence is common for patients suffering from deep venous CVI.

Dr. Marc H. Glickman, Hancock Jaffe's Senior Vice President and Chief Medical Officer stated, "An 8 point average decease in VCSS scores after one year post-surgery is a significant improvement that will garner a lot of attention among the vascular community. It is extremely gratifying when as a result of the VenoValve, the pain score, that is graded on a scale, of one to ten, goes from an 8 pre-surgery to 1 at one year post VenoValve surgery, for an 86 year old patient that has suffered from severe CVI for more than 30 years."

CVI occurs when the valves in the veins of the leg are injured or destroyed, causing blood to flow backwards, which is known as reflux. Reflux results in increased venous pressure (venous hypertension), damage to the veins, and results in the pooling of blood in the lower leg. Deep venous CVI is a serious condition, often resulting in debilitating pain, swelling, and open sores (venous ulcers) on the lower leg. HJLI has implanted VenoValves in 11 patients over the course of a year as part of its first-in-man, Colombian study, which is the pre-cursor to the U.S. pivotal trial. Data is being reported today for the first eight VenoValve patients to reach the critical, one-year milestone. The eight VenoValve patients that are one-year post surgery have now completed the first-in-man, clinical study and this phase of the VenoValve study will conclude in December when the three remaining patients are all one year post surgery.

Next steps for the VenoValve include the continued monitoring of the remaining three VenoValve patients in Colombia, the completion of a series of functional tests mandated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), and the filing of an IDE application with the FDA seeking approval to begin the U.S. pivotal trial, which HJLI expects to file in the first quarter of 2021.

Approximately 2.4 million people in the U.S. suffer from CVI due to reflux in the deep venous system. Estimates indicate that direct medical costs from CVI in the U.S. exceed $38 Billion a year. There are currently no FDA approved devices, or effective treatments for deep venous CVI.
