November 18, 2019 – – El Cajon, CA based James Martial Arts Academy is pleased to announce their martial arts classes for adults. The martial arts academy offers classes for adults looking to start their martial arts training, be it for self-defense or fitness. The academy is run by Darryl James and his wife, Cheryl, and they offer their extensive experience to people who wish to gain new skills in physical combat and discipline. Read about the benefits of martial arts for adults at the following link: Martial Arts Classes For Adults Near Me.

“As a martial arts instructor in El Cajon, CA with extensive experience training kids, adults and women’s self-defense there is nothing better than seeing their growth firsthand,” says James, who believes that the most important part of teaching martial arts is the personal skills they develop and the confidence the training builds in them. He states, “Martial arts is far more than just kicking, self-defense, punching and getting the next colorful belt, it’s about developing confidence, discipline, character, focus and respect.”

Every class supports growth in mind, body and character, James has observed. The instant positive feedback provided by martial arts gives students a similarly prompt boost in confidence. One can see the effort they put into learning a particular technique pay off in real time, and this helps one learn to believe in themselves and appreciate the work they put in in ways that few other activities can match. “By learning to focus on the core moves, they develop discipline and respect. They can instantly see and feel a difference, making them destined to build confidence, self-awareness, and self-respect,” says James.

Another reason why one might want to consider taking up martial arts as a way to get fit or build confidence (or for any other reason) is that it is quite fun. James has truly developed a passion for martial arts, and he makes it a point to transfer some of this passion to his students. As he says, “I love teaching martial arts in the El Cajon, La Mesa, Santee, Chula Vista, and San Diego communities, and this is how I know you are going to love training with us too.”

The James Martial Arts Academy provides martial arts training for children as well as a martial arts class for adults. While most new martial arts practitioners are young children, the academy is equally open to adults hoping to learn something new. “We understand that searching for a martial arts program for kids or adults in San Diego can be challenging,” the academy says, “but with the James Martial Arts Academy, you can rest assured that you have found your next karate training academy. Our programs can help you reach the next level regardless of your experience or age with our experienced trainers and proven techniques. We guarantee that if you partner with us, we will help you reach your fitness and martial arts goals with challenging classes.”

Many of the academy’s students have left testimonials thanking James and the academy for the positive change in their lives. Alysandra, in a testimonial shared on the academy’s site, says, “Hands down the best trainer I’ve ever had. Sifu Darryl is exceptional at what he does. He is motivating and pushes you to your limits and then some. I was fortunate enough that one of my friends had found him and invited me to a class. Even though there were three other people in there, he was attentive to me and made sure I was doing the workouts correctly with good form. I was fully out of shape and, within a couple of months, I noticed things improving, such as my form and strength. I have always had a hard time motivating myself to get to the gym but with Sifu Darryl, I am excited about the class every time.”

Another student, Danny, left a five star review on the site stating, “Sifu Darryl is one outstanding instructor! He knows his stuff. I would highly recommend the James Martial Arts Academy to anyone wanting to learn a true martial arts and self-defense system.”

Anyone looking to join a martial arts class for adults in San Diego can get in touch with the James Martial Arts Academy to get started. Many have already walked in and seen great personal growth within themselves. Find out more at the following link: Martial Arts Classes Near Me For Adults.

November 18, 2019 – – Corpus Christi, Texas based Galvan Builders, a distinguished contractor that specializes in roofing projects, has published a new blog entry discussing the benefits of using modified bitumen as a commercial roofing solution. The local company is always looking for ways to help the community, be it through the improvement of their services or sharing their advice on different topics through their blog. On this occasion, they outline three reasons why homeowners should use modified bitumen in their upcoming commercial roofing projects.

David Galvan, a representative of Galvan Builders, says, “One of the most common inquiries we receive from our clients are requests for advice on the best roofing solutions. In this article, we seek to shed light on this common question, Even though there is no one-size-fits-all response and the best solution varies from one situation to another, there are some options that are certainly better than others.”

The Galvan Builders article refers specifically to modified bitumen, which is a roofing solution that has existed for over 60 years, gaining traction among commercial properties all across the US. Today, despite modified bitumen’s proven status as one of the best roofing options, the company states that many remain unaware of the benefits it has to offer—nor do they know that it outperforms other solutions at a similar price range (depending on the environment). According to the company, modified bitumen should be even more popular than it already is, due to the several benefits that it offers at an accessible price.

The article itself is titled, “Are you planning to Replace Commercial Roofs Soon? Here 3 Three Convincing Reasons to Use Modified Bitumen Today,” and it is catered towards business owners who seek an affordable, durable, and convenient roofing solution.

The first benefit that Galvan Builders highlights is the costs associated with modified bitumen. There are no other roofing solutions at the same price range that offer a quality similar to that of modified bitumen, and the company explains that the materials is among the cheapest solutions even if the quality is not considered. Its cost of about $4-5 per square foot places it just above EPDM solutions (which cost $3 per square foot but feature subpar quality). By comparison, modified bitumen roofs have a longer lifespan, are easier to install, and require less maintenance.

The fast installation of modified bitumen is the second benefit noted by Galvan Builders, as they state that even though there are several similar options, none have the same quality. An example of this is single-ply membrane roofing solutions; they share the same fast installation process as modified bitumen. However, it does not not take long before the adhesive application gets loose and problematic. By contrast, the company asserts that a bitumen roof will never experience the same issues, due to the fact it is heat-welded or torched into place.

The final notable aspect of a modified bitumen roof is its lifespan. On average, modified bitumen roofs can last for 30-40 years with the help of adequate maintenance. Even though it is not as durable as other solutions like PVC or TPO roofs, its price is significantly lower. This allows it to hold its own in comparison to the material and installation cost of these other solutions. Considering this, Galvan Builders gives their seal of approval for modified bitumen roofs as a worthwhile investment, especially if commercial property owners do not have much time before unpleasant weather arrives in town.

“If you are planning on following our advice and installing a modified bitumen roof for your commercial property, then the next most important thing is to seek out a professional company for the installation,” says Galvan. He states that getting a professional to install any kind of roofing is key to ensure both the integrity of the materials and their longevity.

Galvan Builders are among the most experienced and capable roofing contractors in Corpus Christi. This guarantees a successful result to all of their clients’ projects, which are carried out by licensed, insured, and bonded professionals.

He says, “We were very happy with our experience with Straight Arrow! They responded to us quicker than any other roofing company.

November 18, 2019 – – BusRental.com, a Staten Island, New York based company that has several locations across the US, is reaching out to the community at large, advising them to rent a bus in Chicago to fully enjoy their vacations during the upcoming holidays. BusRental.com is a US Coachways partner, which practically means they enjoy access to the expertise and logistics support of the distinguished bus chartering company. This mutually beneficial partnership complemented by cutting edge technology that serves to ease the rental process for their customers.

Edward Telmany, owner of BusRental.com, elaborates on why tourists should rent a bus for their holidays. He says, “There are several benefits that come along with renting a bus in Chicago, even if it seems like a bigger upfront investment than it would be to go in blindly—which we maintain is highly inadvisable. One of the things we always emphasize with our clients is how important planning and prevention are, and these are two things that we completely take care of on your behalf when you hire our bus charter services.”

According to Telmany, the cost of hiring a charter bus in Chicago is not necessarily more expensive than traveling around the city in a taxi or renting a vehicle. With taxis, for instance, there are no guarantees that travelers will be able to swiftly and conveniently locate a vehicle that can take them across the city. Even if finding a taxi were not a problem, the cost of these services would quickly add up and exceed what a bus rental would necessitate, especially for larger groups. Furthermore, finding enough taxis to fit a large group of visitors is a problem in and of itself, even if they are willing to separate into smaller groups while traveling from one point to another.

“With our fleet, that consists of thousands of buses, we will see that all of the logistics for your transport are taken care of well before you arrive in the city for your vacation,” affirms Telmany. “We have many different options that will fit your needs regardless of where you need to go, the bus size that you need, or any other accommodations you may require. We promise a hassle-free and easy way of traveling across the city. You can choose where you want to go and when you want to be there, and we will make it work for you.”

He adds that all of the bus drivers are local Chicago residents, which means that they are familiar with moving around the city. Telmany says, “Even if you decide to rent a vehicle, which may appear to be a better option than paying for taxis for every journey, you will still be in a city that you do not know, driving through streets that you are not familiar with. Hiring our Chicago bus rental service guarantees that you minimize the time you spend stumbling around the city trying to find your destination. We will pick you up at the door of your hotel, take you where you want to be, and then deliver you back to your hotel at the end of the day. You will have to endure no struggles with traffic, no inconvenience finding a place to park, and no unnecessary hassles.”

Telmany states that one aspect of their bus chartering services that often goes overlooked is their door to door pick up, and he asserts that this is remarkably important for those traveling during the winter season. The temperature in Chicago can easily fall below zero, with constant snow and precipitation. Given these dire weather conditions, waiting outside for a taxi is not a viable option, though the company reassures their clients that they can expect to be picked up on time, thus reducing the time they are exposed to bad weather as much as possible.

BusRental.com invites those interested in renting a bus for their upcoming holiday in Chicago to visit their website, where they can get a free quote for their trip requirements. Furthermore, the company reassures their clients that they will get the best prices in the market, since the company maintains a guaranteed price match policy.

Interested parties may visit the company’s website to learn more about the services that BusRental.com offers.

November 18, 2019 – – Edmonton, AB based DDCL Roofing & Maintenance is pleased to share a review of their services that was left online by a satisfied customer. As their name suggests, the company offers a variety of roofing solutions to the communities they serve, doing their utmost to ensure that local residents always have a sturdy and well-maintained roof above their heads.

In their 5-Star review of the company’s services, Anne Nixon writes on the Google platform that, “We are impressed with the thoroughness of their work. Extremely satisfied, and would not hesitate to call them at any time. They go above and beyond.” Nixon’s comments reflect the extremely positive statements made by other customers as well, as illustrated by the fact that the company boasts a perfect 5/5 Star aggregate review score on the platform.

Due to the nature of their work, customers frequently call upon them for help patching up their roofs or getting other maintenance tasks carried out. The company’s swift and pragmatic approach to their work has garnered them a great deal of support from local residents, especially since they are able and willing to take on projects that extend past roofing alone. For instance, Paula Melnyk write in their own 5-Star review that, “DDCL recently painted my whole townhouse. This included the walls, doors, trim, and baseboards. The quality of their work was excellent. They paid attention to minute details. They even fixed minor problems for me that were discovered during their work. The staff were polite and cleaned up after themselves.”

As DDCL Roofing & Maintenance says in their mission statement, “DDCL provides a superior roof replacement or repair service to protect your home from the environment (weather), extend the roof’s life, and provide quality maintenance services in your home so you can relax, worry-free.” While it is evident that this is true of the services the company currently offers, homeowners and property managers who have their houses’ best interests at heart may be pleased to learn that the company has long maintained a stellar record of excellent roofing and maintenance services.

In a DDCL Roofing customer review that dates back a period measured in years, another homeowner simply states that, “They are highly professional and do their job perfectly,” attesting to the fact that the company’s superior customer service and project execution has remained consistently positive over the past few years. The company also boasts an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, long considered the authority in weighing a business’ merits.

According to DDCL, they owe their success to the fact that each member of their team of professional roofers and contractors is fully licensed and bonded—and wields a great deal of experience in the field that spans back at least 15 years. They also prioritise quality, safety, and integrity every time they visit a customer’s property. This effectively means that they always complete a job to their customer’s satisfaction while simultaneously ensuring the safety of all persons involved in the project, whether they are employed by DDCL or not. Additionally, customers can rest assured that the company will remain completely transparent with their pricing, so no hidden fees or unexpected charges will be added to a bill after they have agreed to take on a new project.

The company invites residents in their community to reach out whenever they are in need, particularly since the days are getting colder and emergency roofing or maintenance services may soon be required. On that note, they say, “Your developers made your residential property as durable and long-lasting it can possibly be. However, even problems with seemingly small consequences can become huge liabilities if you leave them unaddressed. DDCL provides exceptionally affordable rates and the best quality of preventative residential maintenance Edmonton solutions to help you find problems and solve them before they get any larger.”

Customers may contact Daniel Foulkes of DDCL Roofing & Maintenance to pursue any further inquiries or schedule a new project with the company’s team.

November 18, 2019 – – The Minneapolis, MN based Birrell Law Firm wishes to inform members of the communities they serve that the firm is able to represent them in cases involving identity theft. The MN identity theft attorney advises those accused of identity theft to seek counsel with them immediately, especially since the crime can be tried in both state and federal court.

According to the firm, “Identity theft occurs when a person obtains money, goods, or something of value through the use of another person’s identity with fraudulent intent. Identity theft can also involve illegal immigration or criminal Internet activity. Identity theft includes financial, criminal, and business/commercial identity theft, as well as identity cloning.” As such, prosecutors take the charge extremely seriously and will do everything in their power to pursue a victory in court. The Birrell Law Firm, however, stands ready to defend those accused in order to ensure that their case is tried fairly, without undue prejudice.

While identity theft charges can be made in either state or federal court, the latter tends to coincide with other white-collar crimes that the accused is associated with. The firm explains that, for instance, “someone who makes fake credit cards attached to a real person’s bank account and then makes purchases with those cards can be charged with both wire fraud under 18 USC § 1343 and aggravated identity theft under 18 USC § 1028A.”

They note that in all circumstances, defendants should seek to avoid being convicted of aggravated identity theft because it carries a mandatory additional sentence of no less than two years. While this may not seem an excessively long period to some individuals, defendants should keep in mind that period is added to whatever other sentence the judge deems necessary to hand out for other convictions. Making matters worse, this sentence must also run consecutively to other sentences. If an individual is sentenced for aggravated identity theft and another crime that also requires a two-year sentence, this means they will have to spend four years in incarceration. More information can be found here: Birrell Criminal Defense – Identity Theft Law.

The firm adds, “In Minnesota state court, identify theft is covered under Minn. Stat. § 609.527, which defines “identity” to include a person’s name, social security number, date of birth, driver’s license number, passport numbers, employer or taxpayer identification numbers, bank account numbers, and even cell phone numbers.” As a result, the statute’s broad nature means it can apply to a wide variety of situations, and those charged with this crime may find themselves buried under multiple counts of identity theft for what they initially assumed was a single incident.

“Depending on the specifics of the case,” Birrell says, “identity theft can be anything from a misdemeanor with a maximum penalty of a $1,000 fine and 90 days in jail to a felony with a maximum punishment of a $100,000 fine and a 20-year prison sentence.” The attorneys at the Birrell Law Firm retain a wealth of experience representing clients facing charges of identity theft. Due to their extensive work in the field, they are aware of the intricacies of Minnesota’s legal system and can therefore help each of their clients navigate every legal hurdle with greater ease as they simultaneously build and fortify their defense.

This means that accused parties who elect to retain The Birrell Law Firm’s services will have an attorney by their side at every stage of their trial—and in some cases they may even be able to resolve the identity theft investigation in their client’s favor before charges are filed. While clients should always seek to avoid charges being placed at all, the firm asserts that they are ready and willing to defend their client in court if necessary.

Learn more about Birrell Law Firm online at their website, or follow the legal experts on their social media platforms to stay up to date with their latest news and announcements. Clients are also encouraged to contact Ian Birrell of the Birrell Law Firm to schedule a consultation or follow up on any inquiries they may have.

November 15, 2019 – – San Diego, CA — VP of Customer Services, Charlet C. Sterling announced today that WoofCare.com is launching its dog sitting, dog sitter and boarding service Monday, November 25, 2019.

Its services speak to the growing need of dog owners that lead increasingly busy lives and are seeking reliable reputable dog caregivers while they are away at work on traveling for an extended period.

The service might be as one would expect, where the website connects dog owners and dog service providers in their area.

The website was built and developed by dog owners for dog owners.

Charlet C. Sterling said, “The services don’t stop there though. We recognized a need in the market for dog owners wanting to journal every aspect of their dog’s life including photos, videos, events, friends, records, co-owners and the finer details. We built all that in too. Dogs are family members just like our children.”

The Journal aspect of the website is FREE to register for and also includes a $20 Woof Care GIFT CARD to try the service when it first launches in Woof Care’s headquarter city of San Diego, CA.

The dog sitting and dog walking service will be rolling out into hundreds of cities across America in 2020.

November 15, 2019 – – Becoming a licensed contractor in California is not just a matter of filling out a form. In addition to passing a written competency test, candidates need to have at least four years of relevant experience or education in the field.

It has always been an intimidating and confusing process for many people with little practical guidance available. In an effort to offset the lack of help available to would-be candidates, the Contractor State License School came into being in 1974 and has been helping applicants prepare since its inception.

“California is a big state with a lot of people. The need for contractors is at an all-time high and we know that this process is not easy to get through on your own,” said Eric Jacobs, owner of the school. “We were possibly the very first contractors license school in San Fernando Valley.”

He went on to say, “In this high-tech age, it is not just candidates in the Los Angeles area that we help prepare for Californian certification, but people in different states from all over the country. Thanks to the Internet, students can attend classes and study online if necessary, rather than attend in person. Personal attendance is still the best choice if possible but online is a very good second way.”

Rules and laws vary state by state of course, but California law clearly states that property owners who have improvement or repair work done to a building are required to use a contractor licensed by the state if the total cost of that work is above five hundred dollars. As that total includes both the materials used and the labor costs, it means that almost anything but the simplest of jobs is going to require a licensed contractor. Five hundred dollars is a low figure and easily reached.

As a result of such a low figure, property owners can sometimes be tempted to use uncertified contractors who may not provide up to code work. Substandard work may not only lead to dangerous safety concerns, but also to significant fines. It is not only an illegally operating contractor who gets fined but the property owner too.

The Contractors State License Board has established statewide investigative fraud teams that focus on unlicensed contractors and the underground economy. These units conduct stings and sweeps to curtail illegal contracting activities in Los Angeles and throughout California.

For those wishing to be legally certified, passing the California Contractor License Exam is not a simple or straightforward process. Although there are no financial requirements for obtaining a contractor’s license with the state, applicants must hold a $15,000 surety bond before their license is issued. Applicants need to be above the age of 18 and they will need to be able to document their experience and/or education in the field.

A surety bond is only the first hurdle. In addition, for most applicants, there are three parts to the certification process that need to be successfully completed. In order to be certified, individuals must pass a Standard Law and Business examination, and in addition, a second test covering the specific trade or certification area for which they are applying. Neither exam is easy and candidates who have gone it alone are more likely to fail.

The last part of the process is the paperwork itself. The paperwork necessary for a successful application is challenging at best. It is possible to successfully pass both exams but still fail overall because the accompanying paperwork is not correct or complete.

“Students who attend our flexible classes for contractors license in San Fernando Valley are generally successful the first time of trying. It’s easy to be distracted with self-study and that’s probably the reason why so many self-taught applicants fail,” said Jacobs.

The Contractors State License Center has helped many successful candidates to become licensed contractors and has a money-back guarantee that their students will pass the first time.

November 15, 2019 – – Crane Network, LLC, a Chicago, Illinois based company, offers online marketing for selling a crane and other heavy equipment. The company recently discussed the options that they offer members and why their online marketplace is the best way for companies and individuals to buy and sell heavy equipment.

Paul Paliwoda, a representative for Crane Network says, “We have more than 20 years of experience in helping businesses and individuals to buy and sell cranes and other equipment. We deal with all sorts of construction equipment and from trusted brands like Manitowoc, Genie, Grove and many others.”

Paliwoda says that the company has spent the past two decades putting buyers and sellers together. They specialize in construction equipment and have helped many in need to buy or sell cranes, as well as other heavy equipment like boom trucks and many attachments and replacement parts. He adds that the company has a staff of highly trained and experienced employees who can help construction companies and others to find the specific equipment that they need or to sell their existing equipment.

“We only hire experienced and professional individuals,” says Paliwoda. “We want to ensure that everyone who uses our marketplace gets exactly what they want or need. We have so many boom trucks for sale, cranes and other equipment and finding what one needs is as simple as visiting our online marketplace and performing a search.”

Paliwoda says that the benefit of using the online marketplace is that companies can save time and money. By using one site to search for needed equipment, companies can look through the various items that are available all at the same time, without having to travel to various destinations. Once the item needed is found, the buyer can meet with the seller to get an in person look at the equipment.

“It works like a membership,” Paliwoda adds. “When an individual or company joins our website, they have access to literally thousands of listings from all over the world which can include cranes in addition to boom trucks, attachments, various parts and other items. And, we make joining very easy. Those who are interested in joining simply have to sign up and then begin connecting with others from all over the world.”

Paliwoda says that the marketplace benefits buyers as well as sellers. The company enables those with equipment to sell to offer that equipment in one place, without having to list their equipment on multiple sites. The company states that they have thousands of members, all of whom are looking for the specific equipment that their members list daily.

The company states that their online crane auctions help sellers to reach more people than they would by simply having an auction in their local area. Online auctions allow users from all over the world to attend, which means that sellers can reach a much higher audience than if they just listed those equipment pieces in a local newspaper.

“We want to give buyers and sellers the avenue needed to find the pieces that they need or to sell the pieces that they no longer need and we feel that we have created that avenue,” Paliwoda says. “We look forward to signing up many new members and helping these construction type companies to enjoy the benefits that our members are currently enjoying.”

Those who are interested in learning more can browse the listing on the Crane Network online to get an idea of the types of equipment that are listed. While anyone can browse many of the listings, Paliwoda says that only members can see all of the auctions and bid on those auctions. Only members are permitted to list their own equipment for sale, as well. In addition to their website, the company has a strong presence in social media, having various pages where interested companies can get a better idea of their process and read through reviews from others who have used the online marketplace to purchase or sell heavy equipment.
