Family IQ has Launched a New Marketing Webinar with the Help of Rod Stinson
Family IQ is a successful 10-year old company with a "super product" that was just converted into a top-tier/network marketing business model.
Eagan, MN, January 16, 2011 -- Family IQ has Launched a New Marketing Webinar with the Help of Rod Stinson. Having a great marketing presentation will make your business succeed Nilsson says. Home business is all about marketing and driving traffic. Most people struggle with this activity and this is why there is a 97% failure. Family IQ’s new marketing presentation will help people make sales. People will either want to get involved and call you for more information or they will decide it is not for them. Either way you have people make a decision.
Family IQ is a successful 10-year old company with a "super product" that was just converted into a top-tier/network marketing business model. The company attached a fantastic front-end/back-end COMBO compensation plan considered the first and only one of its kind. You earn $1,000 every personal sale, PLUS TWO residual income streams down to nine levels. I don’t think there’s a better or faster way in the home-based business industry - or anywhere - to reach a SIX figure income than with Family IQ Nilsson says.
Nilsson says, After intentionally staying on the fringe of the Home Business/Network Marketing Industry for a dozen years, it was obvious that My Family IQ and Rod Stinson had the perfect combination of product, leadership, training and appropriate market timing. It’s very rare to have all of these elements come together in one powerful structure all at the same time. Together we can make a huge and important difference in people’s lives.

Canadian Company Launches World’s First International Golf Café Franchise
If there was ever any doubt that golfers are fanatical about their sport, witness an amazing trend that golfers in South Korea have started.
Vancouver, British Columbia, January 15, 2011 -- If there was ever any doubt that golfers are fanatical about their sport, witness an amazing trend that golfers in South Korea have started. In 2003, South Korea, a country with an estimated population of just under 49 million, had 300 virtual golf cafes up and running. Today, there are over 5,000 virtual golf cafes catering to roughly 200,000 golfers who play virtual golf on a daily basis. This trend has not been lost on the brand new franchise Links Golf Café in their quest to bring North America’s first virtual golf café to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Utilizing about Golf’s PGA TOUR-endorsed golf simulators, Links Golf Café is looking to capitalize on the golfer’s passion to play, regardless of weather conditions, in a social atmosphere that provides ‘eater’tainment, where golfers will get more than just access to world class golf courses with their coffee and sandwich. "Our goal is to create an amazing sense of arrival coupled with a ‘wow experience for our clientele. Whether you are a golfer or not, we want to amaze you!", says Allen Bonk - Vice President - Franchise Sales & Marketing for the parent company ‘Aegis Golf ’. "Not only will we be providing access to the world’s best golf courses, we will have the food, beverage, and service to compliment it. Imagine ordering up a mouth-watering a Panini sandwich, a fresh-roasted gourmet organic coffee, and heading over to one of our PGA TOUR simulators to play Pebble Beach or St. Andrew’s. We aim to create an entertainment and dining experience that anyone who enters one of our cafes won’t soon forget."
The battle for entertainment dollars in the food and beverage industry is not a new one. Companies have been looking for that magic combination of providing entertainment with food and beverage service for years. With virtual golf becoming as popular as dart boards and billiards tables, a new player is emerging in the industry and Links Golf Cafes will look to rival traditional entertainment outlets like bowling alleys for that coveted market share. Having the ability to play in golf leagues against both local golfers and golfers across the world is a concept that no current venue can compete with. "The concept that our customers will have the opportunity to play virtual golf on the world’s most famous courses against other golfers from across the world ‘in real time’ is incredibly exciting," says Bonk "The US has a very high number of golfers per capita (1 in 6 on average) and Americans always have a place to play, regardless of the weather outside."
With 24 Links Golf Café franchises already awarded across the United States, the buzz about Links Golf Café is definitely catching on. And with conservative plans to have 15 virtual golf cafes up and running in Canada by the end of 2012, and 77 more by the end of 2018, this is just the beginning for the company who will bring the world’s first international golf café franchise to Vancouver in the summer of 2011.

Want to Have Instant Expertise? Ask ThoughtOffice, Get All the Right Questions
255 to 2,213. That's the number of Expert Questions available from ThoughtOffice. ThoughtOffice is a novel brainstorming application that asks the right questions, and then provides more than 10,000,000 answers. People and groups requiring real-time creative thinking and innovation get immediate solutions using the ThoughtOffice Model.
Portland, OR, January 14, 2010 (Straight Line PR) -- Business leaders require creative thinking and problem solving skills in real-time. An Internet-enhanced software application, ThoughtOffice provides powerful questions derived from millions of hours of process development by successful business leaders. Each software bundle includes a selection of "Expert Topic Brainstorming Modules", each one filled with hundreds of questions that become the catalyst for new ideas and solutions.
"ThoughtOffice was designed with one purpose in mind: creatively solve problems faster and easier than anything before," says Mark Alan Effinger, Founder and Chief Evangelist for ThoughtOffice. "Our clients have opened our eyes to how important speed is to the creative process. It can mean millions in savings, billions in market opportunities. This version of ThoughtOffice was developed to provide real-time results."
Several ThoughtOffice software bundles are available, designed for markets such as: CEOs, executive coaches, creative writers, public speakers, inventors, and educators. All software suites are designed to help enhance the creative thinking process by using a series of brainstorming questions ( http://www.thoughtrod.com/plugin-modules/ ) which trigger the user to view ideas and problems from multiple perspectives. With hundreds of questions per module, making connections between ideas, or linking to new possibilities, is both easier and faster. This is made possible because the contents of each module are organized the way a true expert thinks. Fast, intuitive and deep.
"Asking just the right question has the power to create a paradigm shift in our own thinking," says Samantha Hall, ThoughtOffice Product Specialist. "A question can prompt us to view a problem or idea in a new light, from new perspective or vantage point that we may not have seen before. Then suddenly, we reach a moment of clear understanding! We see new doors that we didn't know were there before. A new path. A new angle."
Once a series of questions is selected from the module, they are added to the main interface and become the foundation for the brainstorming Session document. ( http://www.thoughtrod.com/software-bundles/ ) When a brainstorming session is complete, the document can be exported in several layouts and formats, including storyboard, HTML, or PDF, allowing the results to be shared with co-workers or clients. Session documents can also be branded and even password protected for an additional layer of protection when sharing ideas with others.
The program is available for both Macintosh OS X and Windows XP / Vista / 7. It features a collection of plugin modules that provide professional guidance in 16 areas of expertise ( http://www.thoughtrod.com/plugin-modules/ ). ThoughtOffice bundles are priced from $97 to $497 and are available online at http://www.ThoughtRod.com and from the ThoughtOffice Amazon store at http://amzn.to/ThoughtOfficeStore .
About ThoughtOffice:
ThoughtOffice Corporation is a Washington-based technology firm focused on innovation and business process development. Since 1986, the company founders have successfully launched and sold nearly a dozen companies, from advertising to laser display technology, software to internet e-commerce. In development of brainstorming software, the development team interviewed over 800 business and innovation leaders. They apprenticed with Marsh Fisher, co-founder of Century 21 Real Estate and founder of IdeaFisher, one of the first and most popular brainstorming software programs worldwide. The result, ThoughtOffice, takes brainstorming and innovation out of the lab and makes it practical for daily use for education, business process development, advertising, executive coaching and in the C-Level executive suite.

DolomiteMountains.com Now Offers Option of Self-Guided Trips
Dolomite Mountains, the experts in adventure travel to the Dolomites, announces the option to take self-guided tours in groups of two or more.
Parker, CO, January 13, 2011 -- Dolomite Mountains, the experts in adventure travel to the Dolomites, announces the option to take self-guided tours in groups of two or more. This option offers independent travelers the freedom to explore the locale at their own pace and within their own schedule, and the flexibility to build a customized trip based on their personal preferences.
Travelers who enjoy adventure trips but prefer to not be held to a strict schedule now have the ability to create their own itineraries for exploring the breathtaking Dolomites while experiencing just about everything they could on a guided tour.
A few of the many activities that can be built into a self-guided tour in the Dolomites include:
* Road or mountain biking
* Traveling from Cortina d’Ampezzo to Alta Badia
* Day hiking from a B&B "base camp" or hotel
* Hiking from rifugio to rifugio
There is also the option to combine self-guided trips with guided day trips for things such as rock climbing or climbing a via ferrata. Guided tours can also be incorporated into self-guided vacations for one or several days, based on preference.
Guests have the option to choose from several existing self-guided itineraries or a customized itinerary may be created to accommodate specific needs or desires. Travel plans can vary from one week trips to more extended journeys. In some cases, guests can save up to 20% by choosing a self-guided version of a guided tour.
Upon arrival, a representative for Dolomites Mountain will brief guests on the specifics of their trip, providing detailed route descriptions, maps and variations for daily hikes, information on luggage transfers and alternate transportation options, as well as inclement weather
instructions. Also provided is a prepaid Italian mobile phone pre-programmed with important contact information for trip assistance or in case of emergency.
Self-guided trips can be built to accommodate groups of any size, but for safety purposes there must be at least two participants. These trips are especially nice for families, since everyone can move at their own pace and the itinerary can be adjusted to make time for naps and meals. There’s also the option to split off into smaller groups (of two or more), and Dolomite Mountains even offers babysitting services to allow parents a little alone time.
Dolomite Mountains is the expert in adventure travel in the Dolomites. And because they explore it every day, they have the unique advantage of in-depth knowledge of the terrain, including which sites and trails are best, based on individual preference and skill level. Visitors traveling with Dolomite Mountains receive superior accommodations and exceptional customer service. Personalized itineraries are their specialty, ensuring that each visitor enjoys an adventure that’s perfect for their individual needs, particularly the independent traveler who prefers to explore without the use of an expert guide.
For more information on how to book your own self-guided tour with Dolomite Mountains, please visit http://dolomitemountains.com or call 303 898 3376.

5 Things to Try While Visiting the Dolomites
In the Dolomites there are five experiences in particular that should not be missed, adventure operator DolomiteMountains.com offers a few recommendations for travelers looking for an authentic experience.
Littleton, CO, January 12, 2011 -- In the Dolomites there are five experiences in particular that should not be missed, adventure operator http://DolomiteMountains.com offers a few recommendations for travelers looking for an authentic experience.
Italy’s Dolomites, a vast mountainous region located just south of the Alps, provide visitors a stunning account of natural beauty and endless adventure. Its 90,000 acres consist of picturesque villages, rolling green pastures and steep mountain trails with breathtaking views. Traveling to the Dolomites can at first seem overwhelming, given the size and expansion of the area, so it’s a good idea to prepare a list of things to do ahead of time so you get the most out of your trip.
There are five experiences in particular that should not be missed.
Walk a via ferrata
In English via ferrata means "iron road", and it’s a unique way to traverse the mountainous paths of the Dolomites by climbing up through the use of a series of metal rungs, safety cables and bridges that form a vertical path to the summit. You need not be an experienced mountain climber, but be forewarned, the views during your ascent will most certainly stop you in your tracks.
Stay in a rifugio
Rifugios are basically mountain huts located throughout the Dolomites. They are typically simple and rustic, however these shared facilities can be quite comfortable and can accommodate anywhere from 20-50 hikers. There are often showers available and most also serve food.
Drive the Great Dolomites Road
Open year round, this scenic route crosses Falzarego, Pordoi and Karerpass (at the renowned Rosengarten) and connects Bozen with Bolzano.
Experience Marmolada
Known as the Queen of the Dolomites, Marmolada is the highest mountain in the Dolomites. Visitors can take a cable car to the top, or hike underneath the Marmolada Glacier, located on the mountain’s north face. The magnificent views are awe-inspiring and unmatched.
Explore the WWI tunnels and galleries
Lagazuoi Mountain boasts an intricate array of galleries and tunnels that were constructed by the Italians and Austrians during the First World War. There is a museum you can visit, as well as the Rifugio Scotoni, which serves a delicious and highly recommended grill and vegetables dish for lunch. While you’re there, you might also consider a stay at the Rifugio Lagazuoi, located at the top of the Lagazuoi Mountains, where you can experience the best 360° views in the Dolomites.
Given the vast size of the Dolomites, there are endless scenic adventures to be had, but unless you plan on staying for an extended period of time, it makes sense to select a few activities to participate in while you’re there. The five listed above will help ensure that you get the most out of your trip and experience the very best that the Dolomites have to offer. To learn more visit: http://dolomitemountains.com

Harrisburg University and The Hershey Company to Develop Sensory Science Research Laboratory
Hershey grant will fund lab start-up, contribute to new-product development
Harrisburg, PA, January 12, 2011 -- Harrisburg University of Science and Technology and The Hershey Company (NYSE: HSY) are joining forces to develop a Sensory science and consumer research program at the school’s campus located in downtown Harrisburg, Pa. The initiative includes creating a research laboratory where the University will conduct consumer taste tests on a range of confectionery products, including Hershey’s chocolate. Consumer insights obtained from the lab’s research will guide product development efforts.
"We are creating a unique research program where students will learn applied science and technology that has meaningful, real-world applications," said Dr. Eric Darr, Executive Vice President and Provost, Harrisburg University. "We want to thank Hershey for their support. This research will not only benefit the innovation work of one of the world’s best-known companies, it will give students the opportunity to gain practical experience that will prepare them for science and technology jobs."
The Hershey Company will give the University a grant of $90,000 to equip a new sensory science and consumer research laboratory and cover other start-up costs during the program’s first two years. The University plans to complete the lab in February.
The sensory science and consumer research program is aligned with the University’s mission to create innovative and ambitious programs that meet the educational needs of youth as well as create economic opportunities in the region. Harrisburg University staff and students will conduct the consumer research working closely with Hershey research staff.
The program’s research results will be integrated with sensory testing conducted at The Hershey Company’s Technical Center in Hershey, Pa., where professional sensory panels and employee panels provide feedback that guides ongoing new product development. "Having broad consumer input improves our ability to innovate as we develop the best-tasting and most appealing chocolate and sugar confectionery products on the market," said Dan Azzara, Senior Vice President, Global Research & Development at The Hershey Company. "This will be an exciting partnership that will keep us closely connected with consumers and influence future Hershey products as we develop innovative new forms to meet the needs of consumers. We’re proud to continue our support of the Harrisburg University of Science and Technology."
For additional information about sensory science research activities at Harrisburg University, please contact Dr. Rene D. Massengale at 717.901.5133 or RMassengale@HarrisburgU.edu

WorldNomads.com Offer Safety Tips for Winter Travel
With the abundance of heavy snowfalls and severe winter weather WorldNomads.com advises travelers to take extreme care while visiting those areas to avoid possible injury.
Littleton, CO, January 11, 2011 -- Edinburgh, Scotland and London, England are among the many European cities that are facing severe winter weather. World Nomads cautions that although it may look like a peaceful winter wonderland, this type of weather can be more dangerous than it appears. One person was killed in St. Petersburg, Russia after being struck by a large chunk of falling ice. Several others throughout Europe have been injured and there’s more danger ahead with the big chill expected to resume at Christmas.
The US is also in the midst of major blizzards, with many areas in the Northeast and Midwest regions buried under several feet of snow, and more expected over the coming weeks. Recent storms have been blamed in the deaths of over a dozen people across five states.
Experts at World Nomads advise that snow, ice, frigid temperatures and strong winds all have the potential to wreak havoc on travel plans, so plan accordingly for delays. They suggest several safety precautions to consider when traveling during this time of year:
* Avoid walking along the periphery of buildings and keep an eye out for overhanging icicles
* Dress in layers to avoid hypothermia
* Wear good shoes or boots with plenty of grip
* Avoid driving on the roads if possible. If you must drive, drive slowly, clear your car of all snow to increase visibility. Stop regularly to remove accumulated snow and fit snow tires or chains,where appropriate
* When renting a vehicle, consider choosing one that has a GPS system that includes a "panic" or emergency button
Travel during winter months can be a wonderful experience, be it a holiday visit with family or an adventure vacation packed full of winter sports and cold-weather activities. WorldNomads.com wants to ensure that whatever your winter travel plans, that you remain safe.

Pulp Fiction Western "Cattle King For a Day" AudioBook Classic on CD Back by Popular Demand
Book publisher Galaxy Press has released a new edition of the classic pulp-era western "Cattle King For a Day" by New York Times best selling author L. Ron Hubbard. Part of the "Stories from the Golden Age" series, these reissues feature original pulp artwork and illustrations.
Hollywood CA, January 08, 2010 (Straight Line PR) -- Cattle King for a Day is the fifth western released in the famed Stories from the Golden Age classic pulp reprints, and the 31st title overall in the series. The Stories from the Golden Age series is reprinting 153 of L. Ron Hubbard's stories in 80 volumes using original pulp artwork and illustrations. The series is being simultaneously released as unabridged, multi-cast audio books with original music and sound effects. The audio books are state-of-the-art productions that capture the feel of classic radio dramas from the '30s and '40s.
Originally published in 1937, Cattle King for a Day ( http://bit.ly/cattlekingforaday ) tells the story of Chinook Shannon, who is seeking the true identity of the man who killed his grandfather, and is now after his ranch. L. Ron Hubbard's prolific career as a writer spanned fifty years and included stories in every popular genre. In addition to his westerns, he published air adventure, mystery, fantasy, science fiction, sea adventure and crime thrillers. During his lifetime, Hubbard was immensely popular. His action-packed stories were noted for their fast pace, sharp dialogue, and memorable characters.
Previously released westerns - Branded Outlaw, Under the Diehard Brand, Six-Gun Caballero, and The Baron of Coyote River - have proven equally popular with modern readers. Cattle King for a Day includes the bonus story Come and Get It. Of the 80 volumes in the Stories from the Golden Age series, 15 will be westerns. With bonus stories included in several volumes, 34 of L. Ron Hubbard's Golden Age westerns will be reprinted for the first time since their original appearance over sixty years ago.
The western was a mainstay of pulp magazines during the '30s and '40s. ( http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com/westernpulps ) During this period, it is estimated that over 30 million people read pulp magazines every month. Finding the stories memorable, pulp fans often collected the magazines, which helped preserve this vital part of American culture. Today, the Library of Congress houses an L. Ron Hubbard pulp collection. The Head of the Rare Books Collection has noted: "You look at the L. Ron Hubbard collection, an author who spoke with a very popular imagination, in terms of science fiction in particular, really shaping that field, and you see this pristine collection where you can see the enormity of his literature."
Considered by many to be the quintessential American genre, westerns remain as popular as ever. A revival of interest in L. Ron Hubbard's Stories From the Golden Age has helped rekindle interest not only in the western, but in the pulp era itself. These vital stories represent an age of swashbuckling excitement that remains unsurpassed in literary history. L. Ron Hubbard's swift tales of derring-do and unbound thrills are at the forefront of a pulp revival that shows no sign of ending.
L. Ron Hubbard's Stories from the Golden Age are being released monthly by Galaxy Press. Titles are available in eBook, paperback, and audio book formats and can be ordered from the Stories from the Golden Age website, http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com from retail book outlets, and on Amazon.com.
About Stories From the Golden Age:
Stories From the Golden Age is a line of 80 books and multi-cast, unabridged audio books, featuring 153 stories written by L. Ron Hubbard in the 1930s and 1940s in any of the several popular genres of the day - mystery, thriller, adventure, science fiction, fantasy and western - with tales appropriate for all ages from middle school and up. The cover art for the complete available library is displayed in the iBookstore and purchasing is a breeze on the new iPad. The eBooks are also available at Amazon.com, BarnesAndNoble.com and on the Stories from the Golden Age website at http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com

Hollywood CA, January 08, 2010 (Straight Line PR) -- Cattle King for a Day is the fifth western released in the famed Stories from the Golden Age classic pulp reprints, and the 31st title overall in the series. The Stories from the Golden Age series is reprinting 153 of L. Ron Hubbard's stories in 80 volumes using original pulp artwork and illustrations. The series is being simultaneously released as unabridged, multi-cast audio books with original music and sound effects. The audio books are state-of-the-art productions that capture the feel of classic radio dramas from the '30s and '40s.
Originally published in 1937, Cattle King for a Day ( http://bit.ly/cattlekingforaday ) tells the story of Chinook Shannon, who is seeking the true identity of the man who killed his grandfather, and is now after his ranch. L. Ron Hubbard's prolific career as a writer spanned fifty years and included stories in every popular genre. In addition to his westerns, he published air adventure, mystery, fantasy, science fiction, sea adventure and crime thrillers. During his lifetime, Hubbard was immensely popular. His action-packed stories were noted for their fast pace, sharp dialogue, and memorable characters.
Previously released westerns - Branded Outlaw, Under the Diehard Brand, Six-Gun Caballero, and The Baron of Coyote River - have proven equally popular with modern readers. Cattle King for a Day includes the bonus story Come and Get It. Of the 80 volumes in the Stories from the Golden Age series, 15 will be westerns. With bonus stories included in several volumes, 34 of L. Ron Hubbard's Golden Age westerns will be reprinted for the first time since their original appearance over sixty years ago.
The western was a mainstay of pulp magazines during the '30s and '40s. ( http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com/westernpulps ) During this period, it is estimated that over 30 million people read pulp magazines every month. Finding the stories memorable, pulp fans often collected the magazines, which helped preserve this vital part of American culture. Today, the Library of Congress houses an L. Ron Hubbard pulp collection. The Head of the Rare Books Collection has noted: "You look at the L. Ron Hubbard collection, an author who spoke with a very popular imagination, in terms of science fiction in particular, really shaping that field, and you see this pristine collection where you can see the enormity of his literature."
Considered by many to be the quintessential American genre, westerns remain as popular as ever. A revival of interest in L. Ron Hubbard's Stories From the Golden Age has helped rekindle interest not only in the western, but in the pulp era itself. These vital stories represent an age of swashbuckling excitement that remains unsurpassed in literary history. L. Ron Hubbard's swift tales of derring-do and unbound thrills are at the forefront of a pulp revival that shows no sign of ending.
L. Ron Hubbard's Stories from the Golden Age are being released monthly by Galaxy Press. Titles are available in eBook, paperback, and audio book formats and can be ordered from the Stories from the Golden Age website, http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com from retail book outlets, and on Amazon.com.
About Stories From the Golden Age:
Stories From the Golden Age is a line of 80 books and multi-cast, unabridged audio books, featuring 153 stories written by L. Ron Hubbard in the 1930s and 1940s in any of the several popular genres of the day - mystery, thriller, adventure, science fiction, fantasy and western - with tales appropriate for all ages from middle school and up. The cover art for the complete available library is displayed in the iBookstore and purchasing is a breeze on the new iPad. The eBooks are also available at Amazon.com, BarnesAndNoble.com and on the Stories from the Golden Age website at http://www.GoldenAgeStories.com

Premier Wealth System High Tier Program has Launched a New Marketing Webinar
Using Rod Stinson’s Marketing Webinar is helping the average home business person create 5 figures monthly Nilsson says.
Eagan, MN, January 09, 2011 -- Premier Wealth System High Tier Program Has Launched a New Marketing Webinar.
Using Rod Stinson’s Marketing Webinar is helping the average home business person create 5 figures monthly Nilsson says. The only job is to market the 24/7 webinar and let Rod do all the presenting for you. People have been waiting for a system like this to help make 5 figures monthly.
Here are the details on how you can now earn 497-3497 and up per sale using Rod Stinsons program. First of all you will want to use Lead Net Pro. Lead Net Pro is a tremendous lead generation software tool that allows us to harvest data of networkers and gives us a way to mass market to them. Again 95% of networkers are making no money. They are very open to a fully automated, fully duplicatable system that can have them earning life changing top tier money. We use Lead Net Pro to drive them to the Rod Stinson secret webinar where they opt in. They then watch the powerful one hour webinar that has amazing time sensitive bonuses at the end of it.
As founder of WCN Management Eagan, Minnesota, Nilsson he has stayed on the cutting edge of internet marketing and home business opportunities. Nilsson says, After intentionally staying on the fringe of the Home Business/Network Marketing Industry for a dozen years, the careful evaluation and due diligence of a dozen different top internet homes businesses, it was obvious that Premier Wealth System had the perfect combination of product, leadership, training and appropriate market timing. It’s very rare to have all of these elements come together in one powerful structure all at the same time. Together we can make a huge and important difference in people’s lives.

Fantasy Art by Frank Frazetta Now Available as Limited Edition Prints From Galaxy Press
Galaxy Press announces a limited edition series of fine art prints by Frank Frazetta. These striking prints, originally commissioned as cover art for books published by Galaxy Press, are available now for 50% off.
Hollywood, CA, January 08, 2010 (Straight Line PR) -- Science fiction and fantasy publisher Galaxy Press has announced a new series of fine art prints by the master of fantasy illustration, Frank Frazetta. These prints are reproduced from paintings originally commissioned for L. Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth and Mission Earth series, as well as several editions of L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future. Hubbard referred to Frazetta as the "King of Illustration" and indeed, his stellar career bears this out. With the launch of the Illustrators of the Future Contest, companion to the very successful Writers of the Future Contest, Frazetta became one of the contest's most accomplished judges.
Frazetta remained a judge for the Illustrators of the Future Contest from its initial days until his passing earlier this year. In an essay he wrote on the subject of illustration, entitled "The Difference", he began with a short description of his own beginnings in art where he wrote, "I was born with a pencil in my hand. Most artists reach a certain age, and then their eyes open and they start doing art. I was drawing as far back as I can remember. I had unusual talent right then and there, in that I saw things differently. I saw them more accurately. Some people to this day criticize me by saying I exaggerate; that people don't look like that. But they look like that to me. The truth is from the very beginning, instinctively, I drew what I thought I saw."
"I try to give people what I think should be. I've had many, many people look at one of my paintings, and say 'Yeah! That's the way it should be!' Basically, that's my whole approach."
Prints have been made available at a 50% discount and are now only $19.95. Each print is approximately 19" X 13" and include:
* "Dreamflight" by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume III
* "Moonrider" ( http://bit.ly/FrazettaPrintMoonrider ) by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume IV
* "Encounter" by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume V
* "Leaping Lizards" ( http://bit.ly/FrazettaPrintLeapingLizards ) by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume VI
* "Dawn Attack" by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume VII
* "The Countess" by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard's Magnum Opus, Mission Earth
* "Man the Endangered Species" by Frank Frazetta from L. Ron Hubbard's Science Fiction Epic, Battlefield Earth
For more information about the limited edition Frank Frazetta art posters from Galaxy Press, visit http://www.GalaxyPress.com/artwork-posters
The Writers of the Future contest was created by L. Ron Hubbard in 1983 as a means of allowing newcomers a chance to have their work seen. Based on its success, a companion Illustrators of the Future contest was also created. This program has provided a starting point for many careers. Over 600 writers and illustrators have seen their name in print over the 25 years of the contests' history. And hundreds of contestants have gone on to successful careers in writing or illustration. At last count, there have been over 700 novels, including New York Times bestsellers, and over 3,000 short stories that have been published by contest winners. In addition to continuing on in the field of speculative fiction, several writers have gone on to publish in genres such as mystery and romance, to write for TV and motion pictures, or become editors and critics.

About Illustrators of the Future and Writers of the Future:

Notable past winners of WOTF include Stephen Baxter, Karen Joy Fowler, James Alan Gardner, Nina Kiriki Hoffman, and Dean Wesley Smith. The winning stories are published in the yearly anthology L.

London Businesses Feel Positive About Recruitment in 2011
Sales recruitment in London is expected to rise in 2011, according to the results of the latest London Business Survey by the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) and KPMG.
Sevenoaks, Kent, January 07, 2011 -- Sales recruitment in London is expected to rise in 2011, according to the results of the latest London Business Survey by the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) and KPMG.
In the coming six months, 45 per cent of London businesses are planning to recruit staff as normal. This is significantly up on the 11 per cent of business that had the same intentions last year.
A year ago, some 26 per cent of firms were planning to freeze their recruitment process during the following six months. This has reduced to just 16 per cent of business this year. Geoff Newman, chief executive of online recruitment company Recruitment Genius, commented "across all the industries we recruit for our sales recruitment sector has certainly seem the most significant demand. Hopefully this is a strong sign that business confidence is being restored".
The results of the survey are supported by an earlier piece of research by Orange that found that 26 per cent of small and medium sized businesses, including those offering sales jobs, are planning to add to their workforce in the coming 12 months. Three out of every four firms questioned by Orange said they expected 2011 to be a more prosperous year for their company.
This, together with KPMG figures that show 84 per cent of business regard London as a ‘good’ or ‘very good’ place to be doing business, bodes well for anyone thinking of changing roles in the New Year.

Employers Keen not to Bypass School-leavers during Recruitment Process
Online recruitment specialist, Recruitment Genius, believes major employers across the country are beginning to realise they will have to change their recruitment processes in response to the rise in university tuition fees.
Sevenoaks, Kent, January 05, 2011 -- Online recruitment specialist, Recruitment Genius, believes major employers across the country are beginning to realise they will have to change their recruitment processes in response to the rise in university tuition fees.
Accountancy giant Deloitte announced this week that it plans to focus more of its recruitment efforts on school-leavers, as well as the university graduates who would usually get the pick of the jobs at Deloitte.
From September 2011, the firm said it will take on 100 school-leavers, with a minimum of three Bs at A Level, each year to ensure it does not overlook the bright candidates who are put off university by the £9,000-a-year fees.
Geoff Newman, chief executive of Recruitment Genius commented "businesses are examining their recruitment processes and responding to the changes that will occur as a result of the hike in fees. For example, graduates may begin to command larger salaries in order to help them pay off the extra £27,000 of debt they are likely to have accumulated."
However, despite Deloitte’s new efforts to recruit school-leavers, it is worth bearing in mind that it employs 1,100 graduates each year, far exceeding the number of A Level students it will take on. This demonstrates that university degrees are likely to continue to hold kudos with employers.

The move puts Nick Dancer Concrete as the first decorative concrete company in the area to use exclusively water-based products.
Fort Wayne, IN, January 03, 2011 -- Nick Dancer Concrete a decorative concrete organization, that offers stained concrete floors to Fort Wayne, Indiana and surrounding areas, has announced that they will no longer use any solvent based sealers that contain harmful VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). The move puts Nick Dancer Concrete as the first decorative concrete company in the area to use exclusively water-based products. Nick Dancer, owner states "This move is a great way to showcase the beauty of concrete in a way that is safer for our employees and for the environment."

Nick Dancer says, "My vision is to provide a practical flooring solution that brings beauty, character and function into your home or business. I feel that now is the time to change our vision for the future. We will now provide a practical flooring solution that not only brings beauty, character and function to your home or business, but also to the environment."
