SAFE International Launches Ottawa Home Invasion Self Defense Seminars – Ottawa, ON Self Defense

SAFE International is expanding its seminar options to include home invasion self defense seminars in Ottawa, ON.

Ottawa, ON, September 20, 2011 - (Straight Line PR) - Ottawa Self Defense, SAFE International Launches Ottawa Home Invasion Self Defense Seminars

SAFE International ™ is the leading provider of mobile self defense/personal protection training in Ontario. SAFE International has taught more than 120,000 clients in the private, corporate and high school environments since 1994. SAFE International is expanding its seminar options to include home invasion self defense seminars in Ottawa, ON.

For a large city, Ottawa is always considered very safe, and it is.  However, anyone, anywhere, at any time can be a victim of crime.  Home invasions are particularly frightening for the residents as it is so fast and violent, there is little time to react. SAFE International Ottawa self defense can address some aspects of a home invasion and how best to handle by teaching in your home environment.

Here are some things to consider in regards to a home personal safety plan.

1)  Is your home attractive to criminals in regards to the yard being well lit or is is dark?

2)  Are there easy access points to the house, like open or unlocked windows, doors without proper locks, unlocked, sliding patio doors?

3)  Do you know how to handle someone at the front door who is aggressive or trying to get access to your house through made up scenarios like pretending they need phone to get medical attention?

4)  Do you know which rooms in your home are the safest in case of a home invasion?

5)  If you are upstairs with no exit from house, would you know where to go and what to do?

6)  Do you have a family safety plan in case of a home invasion?

7)  Does your family have any Ottawa home invasion self defense training?

One of the reasons that SAFE International has become popular teaching self defense Ottawa, is how receptive their clients are to the skills that the SAFE International instructors provide. SAFE International teaches self defense concepts, rather than techniques. This allows people to learn in a much shorter time. SAFE International always covers Awareness and Avoidance strategies which are based on one's home environment such as how to handle someone who is aggressive at the front door or has already broken into the house while you are in the house.  We examine what an attacker looks for, what an attacker wants and doesn't want in confrontation. One of the biggest topics we explore is how most people are too polite, even when their intuition is telling them the complete opposite.  We cover the most common distraction techniques an attacker will use to gain an advantage.  We then move on to verbal strategies in the event that avoidance is no longer possible.  Rather than just teaching to yell at a potential attacker, we cover a few verbal strategies based on the aggressor and the scenario.  The third step is addressing the physical aspect of Ottawa home invasion self defense training.  We only teach gross motor strikes due to the adrenal rush one gets when they are in a highly stressful state such as an attack scenario.  We teach a philosophy of "Attack the Attacker" which reverses one from being the Prey, to that of being the Predator.  Another philosophy is to attack the head if all avoidance and verbal strategies have failed. The self defense drills increase with intensity as the participants gain more confidence.  This is very important as you don't want to terrify your clients right from the start.  It is important to build rapport with your students and the results will be seen as the drills progress.

SAFE International has taught more than 120,000 clients including mothers, fathers, daughters, police officers, seniors, and people with disabilities.

SAFE International Expands Montreal Corporate Safety Training Programs – Montreal Self Defense

SAFE International™ Montreal Corporate Safety Seminars provide employees and management with tips and strategies to recognize, avoid, and handle personal security risks specific to their jobs.

Montreal, QC, September 20, 2011 - (Straight Line PR) - Montreal Self Defense, SAFE International Expands Montreal Corporate Safety Training Programs.

SAFE International™ is a leading provider of mobile self defense/personal protection training in Canada. It SAFE International has taught more than 120,000 clients in the private, corporate and high school environments since 1994. SAFE International is expanding its Montreal Corporate Safety Training Programs to include Montreal, QC. The company is owned and managed by Chris Roberts, CEO, who is a professional teaching Director and self-defense instructor.

SAFE International™ Montreal Corporate Safety Seminars provide employees and management with tips and strategies to recognize, avoid, and handle personal security risks specific to their jobs. Prior to the commencement of training, SAFE International instructors spend time with each company learning about their employees and communicating with Department Leaders and those employees working in the field. It is through this personal attention that SAFE International is able to truly design a course that will have lasting positive effects for their clients and their employees.

SAFE International teaches that recognizing and avoiding dangerous situations is always the top priority. SAFE International instructors will address the daily routines and the risks that employees encounter in their daily jobs. Through role playing and discussion, participants will learn how to take common sense measures to reduce the risk of becoming a victim. The knowledge they gain can be applied to all aspects of their profession – direct sales, interacting with customers and fellow employees, travel and other work related transactions.

During a Montreal Self Defense seminar, clients are taught how to recognize different forms of verbal abuse, and how to defuse in order to resolve conflict without violence. Clients participate in verbal drills specific to their job related challenges. It is through these reality based drills that your employees will develop the confidence to handle various forms of abuse, without the need to be physical, while also preparing oneself in the event that it does. These verbal exercises can be particularly valuable when one might find themselves in an uncomfortable and potentially life threatening situation – entertaining clients, traveling, employee differences, leaving late at night by car, taxi or public transit, walking home, etc. SAFE International believes that not only is self protection a necessity, but it is now a form of insurance that will make your business more profitable and your employees more confident and secure.

The second phase of a SAFE International Montreal Corporate Safety course is the physical aspect which addresses how to React and Respond in the event that conflict becomes physical. Participants are taught basic, gross motor self defense skills meant to help one get away safely and as quick as possible. The principles of their teachings are based on how to react instinctively without having to think about what to do. This is not martial arts, but rather, real skills meant for real life scenarios. SAFE International is a complete course covering everything from A to Z in corporate safety training. SAFE International™ addresses the emotional, psychological, verbal and physical segments of violence in today’s world.

Chris Roberts, CEO of SAFE International also trains/consults people privately on a weekly basis. Private clients include mothers, fathers, daughters, police officers, seniors, and people with disabilities.

New Democracy Beyond Capitalism for Post Collapse World

Based on a new model of morality developed from a new understanding of the human brain and human psychology, a new social structure is presented as the next step for mankind after the coming collapse.

Jacksonville, FL, September 19, 2011 - During research into human consciousness, Bruce Nappi discovered that many conventional assumptions about the human brain were insufficient to explain all the latest observations. To explain emerging discoveries, he had to develop a new 3-brain physiology model, a new 3-level awareness model, and a new theory of language. To his amazement, these new models allowed him to explain how human consciousness works. This led to a new approach to explain human psychology. Once establishing this new foundation of such fundamental concepts, the discoveries kept pouring out.

His theory of consciousness allowed him to finally solve the problem of freewill, which led to a new structure for morality and a natural basis for social interaction. Contrary to religious beliefs which claim that morality comes from religion, history shows that religious doctrines were developed and continually change to follow social practices. These same studies show that the PRIMARY driver of social change, and therefore, religious doctrine, is TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCE. None of these new models require any supernatural explanation.

His next step was uncovering the many false beliefs related to the basic "freedoms" modern society associates with democracy such as equality, liberty, speech, assembly etc. When that was done, he was able to construct a new model for democracy that resolves the major faults of current models and achieves democracy's "idealistic" goals.

The details behind all of these new discoveries, plus a preliminary moral code based on them, are presented in his new books: LIARS! Vol. 1: Scout to the Pole; and LIARS! Vol. 2: Escape to Insanity . The books, written as novels, are based on Nappi's experience as one of the Eagle Scouts on the 1965 North Pole Expedition. They present an "Atlas Shrugged" philosophical romp through a 3 Stooges run government research world, challenging the most fundamental beliefs of human culture. A mind bending coming of age saga, it is filled with amazing true-life adventures expanded by the insights of 30 years in the rough and tumble world of high tech business intrigue. A life threatening climax in volume 2 finally creates a setting to pull all the wisdom together and lay out a broad and comprehensive explanation for many of the problems modern society can't seem to understand. The books present over 40 major scientific and social discoveries that answer the most cr itical unanswered questions of the ages, including explanations for the chaos and strife in modern society. The discoveries are explained using everyday language. They touch every part of our culture, making the books interesting and valuable reading for everyone who seeks an understanding for the insanity of today's society.

Ultimately, the reader will learn how public statements made by politicians and most social institutions, which claim to represent the "will of the people", are predominantly the voice of a small wealthy elite intent on maintaining dominance over society. Mankind's greatest social institutions: government, religion, science, education, law, medicine, and even the U.S. Constitution, are challenged and shown to be corrupt. A unified structure emerges which becomes the basis for a new social structure for mankind.

About Bruce Nappi:

Explorer, philosopher and inventor, Jacksonville Florida resident Bruce Nappi was one of the Eagle Scouts on the 1965 North Pole Expedition, which formed the basis for his first novels. As an Aeronautics major at MIT (yes, a true MIT rocket scientist), his interests were very broad, spanning disciplines from mechanical engineering and electronics to philosophy and medicine.

The breakdown of traditional employment structures in the 1970’s turned him into what he calls a “migrant worker”. But it also greatly expanded his experience with life. He worked on nuclear weapons, nuclear power generation, robotics, automation, military programs, nautical systems, space systems, computer systems and numerous medical devices. He saw each of these industries from both the hands-on engineering side and the management side. He quickly saw that his ability to apply a wide variety of disciplines simultaneously to research problems repeatedly resulted in breakthrough solutions. In addition to his professional work, he was actively involved in the '60s, '70s and '80s turmoil of social institutions including religion, the new age movement, alternative medicine, alternative lifestyles and psychology. It is the collection of all these experiences, viewed from a system perspective, that gave him the new world perspective which led t o the major insights presented in his writing.

The A3 Society was formed to gather a community of like-minded people to explore and implement the new social structure outlined in the books LIARS! Vol. 1: Scout to the Pole and LIARS! Vol. 2: Escape to Insanity.

Major Study Reveals Next Generation of Corporate Leaders Lacks Critical Thinking Skills to Successfully Take the Helm

As today’s corporations grapple with everything from a volatile global economy to technology evolving at warp speed, the biggest challenge they face may be a mass exodus from the executive suite.

Oklahoma City, OK, September 13, 2011 - As today’s corporations grapple with everything from a volatile global economy to technology evolving at warp speed, the biggest challenge they face may be a mass exodus from the executive suite. According to statistics from the U.S. Bureau of the Census, Baby Boomers are retiring at a rate of one every eight seconds and top companies have as many as 60 percent of their workforce eligible for retirement in the next three years.

Findings from a study of top corporations released today reveal that current corporate leaders don’t believe the next generation of executives has the critical and strategic thinking skills requisite to navigate these volatile times and the unchartered future.

The “2011/2012 Trends in Executive Development: A Benchmark Report” is the product of collaboration between Pearson TalentLens and Executive Development Associates Inc. (EDA). Leaders from a record number of 81 large national and multinational corporations with substantial business operations in the United States participated in the biennial survey, which has been conducted by EDA every two years since 1983 to follow the trends, growth and evolution of executive development in corporate environments. The complete report can be purchased at http://www.executivedevelopment.com.

“The leaders at the helm of today’s corporations – most of whom are Baby Boomers – are telling us that they believe the next generation of leaders are not prepared to move into the executive suite and face the challenges of effectively making critical decisions, solving complex problems and thinking creatively and strategically,” said Dr. Judy Chartrand, Consultant Chief Scientist at Pearson TalentLens. “Significant investments in the identification and development of the next generation of corporate leaders will play a crucial role in the success and, perhaps survival, of these large national and multinational corporations. Bonnie Hagemann and John Mattone’s research report couldn’t come at a better time.”

As in the 2009 study, this year’s survey respondents continued to cite the importance of building their “bench strength” for leadership succession. However, this year’s research revealed a troubling disconnect between the belief that succession planning and development are critical and actual corporate initiatives to support those needs.

In a similar vein, this year’s respondents admitted that their organizations need to use more objective assessments to evaluate employee performance and potential, but then reported that they were continuing to use subjective measures that often have very little to do with predicting likely future performance in more challenging and difficult roles.

Interestingly, companies’ struggles with today’s economic crisis and global upheaval were apparent during the survey process. A representative from one company that has typically participated in the research reported that because of economic changes and financial constraints, they had nothing to contribute. Another leader from a Global 1000 company said that because of cutbacks, the human resources team is much smaller than two years ago and expected to do twice the work with fewer resources, and therefore couldn’t even spare the 30 minutes to complete the survey.

Harrisburg University to offer New Certified Government Chief Information Officer (CGCIO™) Program

Beginning October 2011, a new certification program for government Chief Information Officers (CIOs) will be offered at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology to specifically address the unique challenges of public sector IT executive leadership.

Harrisburg, PA, September 16, 2011 - Beginning October 2011, a new certification program for government Chief Information Officers (CIOs) will be offered at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology to specifically address the unique challenges of public sector IT executive leadership. By joining forces with the national Consortium for State and Local Government Technology Leadership Development, the Government Technology Institute (GTI) at Harrisburg University will offer the Certified Government Chief Information Officer (CGCIO™) program.

The 12 month, comprehensive educational program is designed to enhance knowledge in critical areas of public sector IT leadership and management and it is believed to be the only program of its kind in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The program will enable current and aspiring information technology executives working at a senior level in public service to earn a recognized credential, and develop the skills and knowledge to manage the demands of their complex role. To ensure relevance in its application, most of the instructors for the CGCIO™ will be successful IT executives from public and private sector organizations.

Pennsylvania state government spends in excess of $1B annually on information technology (IT). County and local governments collectively make similar investments each year. The role of the IT executive within government is quickly changing and expanding. Just knowing how technology works is no longer sufficient for those responsible for leading IT organizations. Public sector IT executives are expected to have a comprehensive knowledge of areas such as communications, finance, human resources, policy making, management practices and how to effectively connect the technology to the business needs. These expectations combine with the reality that technology continues to evolve rapidly, therefore, requiring a strategic lens. The job of public service IT leader has never been tougher and never more important to the success of government!

Until now there were few opportunities for public sector CIO's and other IT executives to learn how to get a seat at the executive table and how to provide meaningful advice to government officials and others. The new program at Harrisburg University hopes to change this and is accepting nominations now through September 23 for the Inaugural Class of the CGCIO™. Twenty-five candidates from IT senior leadership positions in state, county and local government will be accepted into the Inaugural Class program, which begins October 13, 2011.

In-person sessions, two days per month are led by the program facilitator who maintains topical continuity and builds community within the cohort. Session topics are taught by subject matter experts who use presentations, industry resources, case studies and guest lecturers to present concepts and practical exercises. Peer-learning is emphasized as a valuable method of gaining perspective and lessons learned from others within the cohort. Additionally, independent readings, the applied project and online discussions also support varied instructional approaches for all kinds of learners.

Harrisburg University’s state-of-the-art Academic Center is located at 326 Market Street in Harrisburg. More information on the program is found online at http://www.harrisburgu.edu/academics/GTI/cgcio/index.php Information about the Government Technology Institute at Harrisburg University is found online at www.HarrisburgU.edu/GTI

The University's location in downtown Harrisburg is near Interstates 83 and 81 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike, making it an easy drive to the University. The Amtrak Passenger Train Station and Greyhound Bus Station are one block from our location. More information on parking rates and directions to the University are found online at http://www.harrisburgu.net/campuslife/directions.php#parking

Founded in 2001 to address Central Pennsylvania's need for increased opportunities for study leading to careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields, Harrisburg University is an innovative and ambitious private institution that produces graduates who provide increased competence and capacity in science and technology disciplines to Pennsylvania and the nation. Harrisburg University ensures institutional access for underrepresented students and links learning and research to practical outcomes. As a private University serving the public good, Harrisburg University remains the only STEM-focused comprehensive university located between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Medical Care Technologies Inc. Closes $200,000 Bridge Loan Financing for Kids' Health Center

This financing concludes the second last stage in funding to complete the licensing process of Teddyberry™ and Company, the Company's Chinese subsidiary and to which the Company has named its first flagship children's health and wellness center.

Beijing, September 13, 2011 -- Medical Care Technologies Inc. (OTCBB: MDCE), a rapidly growing children's healthcare service provider, is pleased to announce that, through ReachOut Holdings Limited, its Hong Kong subsidiary, it has closed a $200,000 bridge loan agreement with a private investor for its first children's health and wellness center located in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China.

The terms of the bridge loan are unsecured and bear an annual interest rate of 10% for a thirty (30) day term. Reimbursement of the loan is due in principal plus all accrued interest at the end of the thirty day period.

This financing concludes the second last stage in funding to complete the licensing process of Teddyberry™ and Company, the Company's Chinese subsidiary and to which the Company has named its first flagship children's health and wellness center.  The funds will be invested in a demand deposit account and will be used to fulfill the requirements of Chinese government health authorities of proving ReachOut's strong financial backing from accredited investors.

Teddyberry™ and Company, once completed, will be a 4,000+ square foot facility that is expected to serve a community and broader metropolitan area of 10 million people, including more than 1 million children.  The health center will also directly serve the two (2) neighboring municipalities of Guangzhou and Shenzhen, home to over 25 million residents. Management expects its children's health center to treat roughly a minimum of 300 patients weekly, generating an estimated $30-40 million Yuan Renminbi (RMB) in revenues, which translates to approximately $4.5 to $6 million U.S. Dollars in revenues yearly.

"This financing marks a significant milestone in the development of the Teddyberry™ project," said Ning Wu, CEO and President of Medical Care Technologies Inc. "We are very pleased with the strong investor reception for this financing, which we view as a validation of our children's healthcare development efforts."
