The Newest Travel Companion Helps Yogis Stick to Their Practice

Carlsbad, CA (Vocus/PRWEB) February 17, 2011

The New Year often marks the beginning of new habits and resolutions, as well as the calendar. These goals usually encompass a healthier mindset thus establishing this time of year as ?fitness season?. Southern-California based company, ToeSox, understands this trend as their products for feet suit the soles of many fitness disciplines from running and hiking to Pilates and yoga.

ToeSox recently released gloves that complement their line of non-slip grip toe socks. Grip Gloves by ToeSox prevent hands from slipping during many fitness activities, especially yoga. Sliding hands are common on the yoga mat during dynamic poses like Adho Mukha Svanasana (downward facing dog) and during hot yoga classes. Even more distinctive of the gloves, is their ability to provide secure hand placement on any surface. When Grip Gloves are paired with ToeSox with Grip, yogis can leave their mat behind when travelling, and take their practice virtually anywhere.

While travel may have suffered over the past couple years, experts claim a change in behavior is coming. A 2010 article by hotelmarketing.com predicted that ?36 percent [of Americans] plan to spend more on leisure travel in 2011 than this year? Ninety percent plan to take two or more leisure trips [in 2011] - a slight increase on the 89 percent who said they have done so in 2010.? Couple these travel trends with an increased interest in yoga, and it makes sense for ToeSox to focus their yoga products toward yogis on the go. In 2008, 16 million Americans practiced yoga and the interest is continuing to grow as people are valuing the importance of stress management.

So whether travelers want shopping and skyscrapers or meditative walks on serene beaches, vacations can still be yoga-inspired by practicing poses without slipping anywhere with ToeSox and Grip Gloves.

ToeSox, Inc. was founded in 2004 with the launch of its patented Non-Slip Grip sole, and has since grown from a home-based business to selling various styles nationwide and to more than 40 countries. Visit ToeSox? at http://www.toesox.com or call (877)486-3769.

The Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner hotel, located in McLean, Virginia, has just completed a guestroom renovation that has transformed their northern Virginia hotel in to a more functional and contemporary property that is geared ideally for the modern day traveler.

????State-of-the-art Apple iHome docking stations for all models of iPods and with high-definition sound system

These new guestroom finishes and technologies have been in place for a few weeks, but are already making a difference in their guest satisfaction scores. These upgrades have been very well-received by their guests, in fact, a recent guest, Faith Hickey comments, ?the pull-out trays in the nightstands are awesome and perfect for keeping a laptop next to the bed. Otherwise you would have to put it on the floor and worry about stepping on it or clear off the entire night stand.?

Along with this significant guest room renovation, the Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner has also transitioned to now be a completely non- smoking northern Virginia hotel.

And lastly, even though the Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner has been a pet-friendly hotel in northern Virginia for quite some time, pet enthusiast travelers will be happy to know that the hotel has recently enhanced their pet policy. Now at the Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner, when a guest checks in with a pet, their pet is also treated like a guest and receives a small gift bag amenity designed specifically for them. The Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner is the only one of many hotels in McLean, Virginia that has designated guest rooms for guests with pets, all of which are located on the first floor making it easy for the pets to go outdoors to use the facilities. In addition, the hotel has partnered with Dogtopia, a northern Virginia dog daycare and boarding service, to provide additional services for their four-legged guests.

At a recent manager-hosted reception at the hotel, guests were asked their opinion of the hotel?s new features and the renovation. Long-time frequent guest, Matt Leach, replied, ?The new additions are great!? As a hotel that prides itself on unparalleled customer service, the Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner has proven itself to be one of the top hotels in northern Virginia, which is clearly evidenced by their TripAdvisor ratings.

AuthorsReading.com Debuts Their New Venue for Introducing Authors to the Public

Houston, Tx (Vocus) September 1, 2009

AuthorsReading.com is a valuable new venue available to help authors acquaint the reading public with their literary work. Videos, audios, pictures and interesting narratives of the authors and their books are the mediums used to provide exciting presentation of their creative work.

Authorsreading.com provides its visitors an experience akin to a cyber visit in their own home by their favorite author. Both well know authors and exciting new talent are featured side by side on AuthorsReading.com. You get to hear and see new talent like Stephenie Meyer and seasoned author Stephen King talk about their books along with up and coming authors of books like Hulagu?s Web take their turn on the cyber stage. The site features hand picked exciting talent that include notables like writer Gwynne Forster, James Patterson, Khaled Hosseini and many others.

When asked what prompted the creation of this new web property, Stacie Hearne, President of AuthorsReading.com stated: "I felt America needed to hear and see these exciting authors talk about their stories. Our venue gives them a platform to interface with the reading public and add their voice to their creation. These authors need to be seen and heard and I'm most excited that I have a hand in helping them get a bit more of the credit that their tremendous talent deserves."

Hearne when on to say, "Who else would be more qualified to portray the real voice of their work, than the actual author? Their passion and energy poured into their masterpieces is even more evident when you see and hear them talk about their books."

AuthorsReading.com will be looking for new authors to feature on the site and will be working with publishers, PR people, book agents and independents to find more literary gems. Hearne said, "For this new venue we don?t care what the literary critics say, we care what the public wants and what is exciting and timely." We will be supporting the Independent and Self Publishers who have lately become the most prolific producers of the best literature available. The archaic bureaucratic and political process of traditional publishers appears to have curtailed their ability to find and recognize new literary talent. This is really not a new problem because authors like Vince Flynn, Zane Grey, John Grisham, James Joyce, Deepak Chopra to name a few had to rely on independents and self publishing to launch their writing career because traditional publishers failed to recognize their literary excellence. If it was not for the independent publishers and self publishers, society would not have enjoyed those authors and many other great authors of today. That is why we will be seeking and welcoming authors from all publishing venues. Books on AuthorsReading.com will be judged on their merits and not on the publishers name."

When asked what her predictions were for the new venue for authors, she said, "If this web property succeeds it will be the result of the excitement that these authors bring to the public and the reader?s thirst to know more about the person behind the book."

Trace Adkins and Richard Petty Are At It Again - Giving Each Other Headaches With Their Friendly Feuding

Memphis, Tenn. (PRWEB) August 05, 2011

After a year of friendly feuding during the BC and Goody?s ?Pick A Powder? campaign that launched last summer, Trace Adkins and Richard Petty continue their rivalry by releasing 12 new videos on BC Powder?s and Goody?s Powder?s Facebook pages. Fans of Petty and Adkins and of both brands of fast pain relief products can see the two men interact in various humorous scenarios. The ?painful moments? represented in the videos, where the spokesmen boldly tackle one another?s worlds emphasize the effectiveness and need of headache powders to get rid of pain fast.

Starting the first week of August, fans will be able to go to BC Powder's and Goody's Powder's Facebook pages and view the new videos which include Adkins evaluating Petty?s dancing and wardrobe choices, Petty teaching Adkins about resistance training and trying anything and everything to remove a racing helmet from Adkins? head. The ?Pick A Powder? campaign started as a friendly ?rivalry? to determine who experiences the toughest pain and plays off the fierce and generational loyalty users have to either Goody?s or BC.

Later in the year, fans will be able to once again support raising funds for Wounded Warrior Project on behalf of BC and Adkins and Victory Junction Camp on behalf of Goody?s and Petty. Last year, BC and Goody?s collectively gave $ 100,000 to the charities in a check presentation at the Goody?s Fast Relief 500 in Martinsville, Va., and they hope to get the public?s help in raising that much again. Also, participants who ?like?, share or download a coupon for their favorite headache powders on Facebook will be able to participate in a sweepstakes that will include an all-expense paid VIP trip for four to the Goody?s Fast Relief 500 at Martinsville Speedway (race tickets, air and hotel) courtesy of Goody?s, or an all-expense paid VIP trip for four to a Trace Adkins concert stop (concert tickets, air and hotel) in early 2012 (location TBD) courtesy of BC.

?In working with both men, I can say one of the things Trace and Richard both agree on is that whether it is tough body pain or a droning headache, powders go to work fast and loyalties to each brand run deep,? said Traci Plate, Brand Manager, BC and Goody?s Powders. ?That?s why we created the ?Pick A Powder? campaign and have taken the ?painful moments? to Facebook where many of our loyal users are.?

His instantly recognizable baritone has earned 30 charted singles and 15 Top Ten hits gold, platinum, and multi-platinum albums with total sales surpassing 10 million.

Since 2010, he has served as the official face and voice of BC Headache Powder.

Literally an entertainment mega-star (he's 6' 6"), Adkin's stint on The Celebrity Apprentice earned him recognition beyond Country music and his recent supporting role in The Lincoln Lawyer (Lionsgate) has carried that even further.

A member of the Grand Ole Opry, Adkins was raised on Country and Gospel and is known as a traditionalist who speaks his mind and honors the past. Hits such as "Every Light In The House Is On," "This Ain't No Thinkin' Thing," and "You're Gonna Miss This," feature the heart-felt sentiment that Country music is known for. However, as his fans know, his range also extends to the rowdy side. Having played his fair share of honky tonks on his way up, it was obvious from the start that the rowdy barroom anthem, "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk," would become an across-the-board phenomenon, while his "All I Ask For Anymore," is a moving modern masterpiece that earned Grammy nominations for Best Male Country Performance and Best Country Song.

Trace?s rapidly-charting new single, "Just Fishin'" his the first single on his upcoming album, PROUD TO BE HERE, which was released August 2, 2011 on Show Dog - Universal Music as he continues to criss-cross the U.S. on tour.

Invera Announces Toll Processing Features for Their Metal Service Center Software STRATIX

Houston, TX (PRWEB) May 28, 2011

Invera, the metal industry software specialist, announces the release of ?STRATIX/TOLL,? a toll processing module for customer-owned metal products, as part of their metal service center software STRATIX.

STRATIX/TOLL is used by metal service centers or ?toll processors? that process customer-owned inventory. Toll processors are metal distribution companies that focus on processing customer-owned material for other service centers, large end users, and producing mills.

About STRATIX

Their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software solution STRATIX addresses the unique requirements of the metal industry in the global metal market. A seamless integration of native metal industry terminology and functionality make STRATIX quick to deploy with minimum implementation costs. The STRATIX software includes sales, purchasing, receiving, inventory management, multi-step production, production scheduling, delivery and logistics planning, invoicing, and financials.

STRATIX handles all types of ferrous and non-ferrous metal products of every form, including coils, sheets, structural products, wire, pipe and tubing, rebar, mesh, bars, roll formed products, panels/profiles, and building products.

STRATIX/TOLL Overview

STRATIX/TOLL includes a streamlined Toll Order Entry function that is fully integrated with the standard STRATIX order fulfillment functions, as well as specialized features for Invoicing and Reporting.

STRATIX/TOLL can be used for any type of processing such as slitting, cut to length, bar drawing, turning, honing, bending, heat treatment or polishing.

STRATIX/TOLL Functionality

Customer-owned inventory in STRATIX uses the same product coding as regular-owned inventory. Separate product codes are not required; therefore, company staff can access all STRATIX functions using one set of product codes. In addition, for convenient identification and tracking purposes, all inventory is identified with a customer ID. Salespeople can, for example, search for all Cold Rolled Coils, grade CS, 18 gauge for customer ?ABC Company.?

When customer owned material is received, such as a coil or a bundle of bars, it can be received with a customer?s tag number. STRATIX provides a receipt acknowledgment, which is fully integrated, and can be sent via fax or email.

STRATIX/TOLL is fully integrated with barcoding and AIAG tags. Based on settings in the customer?s profile, barcoded tags can be produced automatically at time of receiving and production. In addition, STRATIX/TOLL provides WiFi bar code scanning features for location changes, pick recording, or to conduct swift customer-specific physical inventories.

A comprehensive customer profile can be used to speed up the entry and verification of toll processing orders. Options are provided to denote whether the customer is billed at time of ?Shipment? or time of ?Production,?? based on consumed weight or produced weight, or for any charges related to storage. Different options are also provided for scrap handling.

The STRATIX Sales Order Entry function was significantly enhanced to include toll processing features. Each sales order item can have a different ship-to, so that material can be sent to multiple customer destinations. In addition, produced items can be made to stock for subsequent release. The customer can also be billed for freight separately. STRATIX also provides ?toll contract orders,? which are used to record an agreement to process a certain quantity of a specific product with applicable charges.

STRATIX/TOLL is designed to operate with production information being recorded on the shop floor. This is used for work-in-process and ready-to-ship finished goods.

STRATIX/TOLL has a unique invoicing cycle to meet toll processing requirements. It includes automatic invoice generation at time of shipment or production, the ability to automate scrap credits at time of invoicing, as well as invoice generation for freight.

Installations

STRATIX/TOLL is currently live and operational with Staub Metals Corporation, a flatrolled steel processor of coil and sheet, with locations in Paramount and Fontana, CA.

Brian Schrunk, IT Director at Staub, commented, ?The STRATIX metal software has the specific features related to our flatrolled coil and sheet business. For the metal service center and toll processing segments of our company, all is handled using the same ERP software.?

About Invera

Invera has been providing steel service center and metal service center enterprise software (ERP) and Metal Internet systems for over 30 years. Invera is the largest software company dedicated exclusively to the steel and metal service center, metal distribution, and metal processing industry.

Move Over Avatars -- Tween Designers are Creating Their Own Outfits Online

Daniel Island, SC (PRWEB) September 23, 2008

Design-Girls.com is a brand new website which allows girls to design, personalize, and purchase their own outfits (sizes 6-14). Through a step by step process, users choose a style (tops, bottoms or accessories), color and trim. The trim includes everything from faux gems, ribbons and sequins to pom-pom fringe. Before purchasing the outfit, customers get to see it online and have the option to email their creation to friends and family or add items to a wish list.

Design-Girls.com became a reality after the founder, Tanya Murphy of Daniel Island, SC, watched her six year old daughter dressing virtual Barbies and avatars online. Murphy already knew her daughter's passion for fashion and real life dress up, and wondered how she could take this world of online fashion play a step further and create a more real-life experience for young girls. "I know how much pride my daughter takes in anything she creates, and I wanted her to be able to channel that creative energy. Now she and others can easily design an outfit that is unique and personal," Murphy said.

Girls ages 8 to 12 who make up the core target audience, collectively have a purchasing power estimated at $ 20 billion annually. This is a highly tech savvy generation of girls and it shows. According to an August 2008 report by the online audience research company, Nielsen Online, 14.8 million girls are online an average of twelve times per month. Sites like Stardoll, Girlsense, and Gaia Online are gaining millions of unique visitors per month. So too, are giants like Disney, Mattel and MGA Entertainment who are vying for their attention online with sites like Disney.go.com, Everythinggirl.com (Barbie, Polly Pocket) and Bratz.com.

Design-Girls.com was founded in 2008 by mother of three, and former Fast Company Magazine sales executive, Tanya Murphy. The site offers self-designed clothing and accessories for girls in sizes 6 -14.
