Hino Motors opens 5,400 sqm parts depot at Logistics District of Dubai World Central

- [UAE, December 15, 2013] Dubai World Central (DWC), the world’s first purpose-built aerotropolis, has announced that Hino Motors Limited, one of the largest truck and bus manufacturers in the world, has opened a new parts facility at the Logistics District. Spread over 5,400 sqm, Hino Motors Middle East Parts Depot (HMMED) will cater to Gulf Cooperative Council (GCC) to shorten delivery times and reduce logistics costs considerably.

The new parts depot at DWC will be Hino Motors third spare part depot after USA and Belgium. Prior to the new depot, the company used to supply spare parts to the GCC market from its Belgium depot which was serving the Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region. The new facility at DWC will enable Hino Motors to supply spare parts and other units directly from their manufacturing unit in Japan for delivery to the GCC market, creating a huge impact on customer satisfaction.

Mohsen Ahmad, Vice President – Logistics District, Dubai World Central, said: “Dubai World Central is a fully integrated development offering state-of-the art facilities for trade and logistics companies. The new warehouse for Hino Motors offers the strategic advantages of our location along with facilities such as multimodal transport, fast-cycle logistics environment, and proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport and Jebel Ali Sea Port through a dedicated logistics corridor which will significantly benefit the company.”

“Further, the new depot will cater the GCC as opposed to the traditional setup of serving the region from the EMEA Regional Distribution Centers (RDC), mostly located in Europe. The move is also in line with DWC’s strategy of convincing more and more EMEA RDC operators to reconsider their supply chain network, by using Dubai as a hub not only for the GCC but rather to a much larger region of the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia (MENASA)”; he added

Masakazu Ichikawa, Chairman, Hino Motors, said: “We have witnessed a tremendous increase in demand for our vehicles and their spare parts in the Middle East in last few years. With the opening of the new depot at DWC’s Logistics District, we will be able to supply high quality parts in timely manner to the distributors in the Middle East Market as the Logistics Hub of the region. The core element of Hino Motor’s business is building “A Trusting Relationship” with customers and the local community through contributions to customer’s business operation. This means providing safe, environmental, high quality products, and reliable after care system for customers to continue using Hino product with its maximum uptime and life time value. At this time, we established our Middle East Depot as a logistics hub of the customer care.”

The opening of the new depot at DWC is in response to the growing sales for Hino Motors in the Middle East which has become an important market for the company. The company will further enhance its reliability, expand the sales of its vehicles and improve customer satisfaction by strengthening its after-sales service through HMMED.

Hino Motors Limited is a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation. It was founded in 1910 and was established as a separate company in 1942. The company has a rich history in the automotive industry and is one of the largest manufacturer of trucks and buses in Japan. Hino Motors manufactures trucks and buses, commercial vehicles and passenger cars for Toyota, automotive and industrial diesel engines, and vehicle parts.

The Logistics District at Dubai World Central offers direct access to air, sea and road transportation, including a dedicated airport-seaport corridor that allows cargo to be moved from port to airport in just 20 minutes. It also offers simplified start-up procedures, minimal bureaucracy, and competitive pricing.

Excello Law plans global expansion after Sweden launch

Virtual commercial law firm Excello Law is targeting ongoing global growth after expanding into Sweden and confirming its plans to continue its impressive growth and build up its team of lawyers through recruitment.

The firm, which is spearheaded in the North East by highly regarded legal practitioner Mark Gardner, uses leading-edge technology to cut out the unnecessary overheads and waste associated with traditional law companies.

It currently has a team of 39 lawyers with a combined 750 years of experience but, as it bids to build up its international presence, it is also actively recruiting to grow.

Excello Law has launched a new operation in Sweden, where it has initially taken on a four-strong team of lawyers and they will provide the Scandinavian market with a full commercial law service.

Moving forward, the firm expects to access further overseas markets as part of its drive to globally spread its unique approach – which sees only experienced lawyers working flexibly to add value to businesses.

Mark Gardner, a dispute resolution, insolvency and debt recovery specialist, joined Excello Law last year as a recognised Legal 500 practitioner. Mark works in the North East and has recently celebrated 25 years as a qualified solicitor.

He believes much of Excello’s success can be attributed to the flexibility it affords its practitioners and clients, enabling issues to be dealt with in the most appropriate manner with the backing of a full service law firm and the experience of others within the firm.

He said: “The legal sector in common with all other businesses is not immune from economic and customer pressures to deliver its services or products in a cost-effective, user friendly efficient manner. The virtual model delivers benefits for both the client and the lawyer.”

“Having such an experienced group of lawyers under the same umbrella means we are able to pass work amongst ourselves to ensure the client gets the appropriate person to deal with their situation’’

“The expansion into Sweden means we can extend the range of services we offer clients and act confidently with businesses exporting into Sweden and also those from Sweden coming into the UK.”

Excello Law offers a full range of services to businesses covering a broad mix of areas including insolvency, debt recovery, commercial disputes, finance, commercial property, employment issues, tax and VAT.

Other areas include construction law, property disputes, IT and e-commerce, data protection, media and advertising law, outsourcing and procurement and sports law.

For more information you can contact Mark on 0785 261 6335 or email mgardner@excellolaw.co.uk

ManageEngine DCIM Solution Integrates IT, Facilities Management

ManageEngine, the real-time IT management company, today announced that it has combined facilities and IT management in its integrated IT management software, IT360. Available immediately, the latest version of IT360 reinforces its value as a data center infrastructure management (DCIM) solution by enabling real-time management of IT and facilities infrastructure components from a single console. ManageEngine has also fortified IT360 with workflow automation, network change and configuration management, and a 3-D rack builder. An online demo of IT360 can viewed at http://it360demo.manageengine.com/.

The IT360 news coincides with ManageEngine’s participation at the Gartner Data Center Conference being held December 9–12, 2013, at the Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. A silver sponsor of the conference, ManageEngine is demonstrating IT360 in booth 515.

As business units put growing pressure on IT to deliver non-stop services, the data center plays an increasingly important role in the enterprise. Yet many data center admins struggle to manage their entire data center infrastructures, including IT and non-IT resources. Manual processes, multiple tools and consoles, inefficient power management and other challenges interfere with optimal management of the data center and underlying components. For these companies, an automated DCIM solution that supports IT and facilities management from a single console promises to eliminate many of the challenges to data center optimization.

“Energy management rivals IT management as one of the major challenges in running an efficient data center,” said Sridhar Iyengar, vice president, product management at ManageEngine. “Typically, the IT management and facilities infrastructure management are separate worlds, which prevent data center operations teams from readily correlating facilities and IT events. Now, IT360 unifies the facilities and IT management in a unified DCIM console, so data center admins can easily see facilities and IT relationships and manage the complete data center proactively.”

IT360 Expands DCIM Duties

IT360 has established a reputation as a trusted solution for managing an entire IT infrastructure from a single console. That reputation was validated in a report[1] recently published by Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), which positioned IT360 as a Value Leader in Application Discovery and Dependency Mapping, and recognized ManageEngine as a ‘Vendor On the Move’ for its advanced integrated CMDB capabilities. Building on that reputation, ManageEngine has enhanced IT360 with the following new features:

Passive device management lets data center operations teams monitor and control passive infrastructure components in the data center, including power, cooling control systems and other non-IT assets. The operations team can also remotely monitor and manage the passive devices as well as manage asset lifecycles. IT360 can also report on power usage effectiveness (PUE), data center infrastructure efficiency (DCiE) and KPI reports on energy efficiency across sites and regions.

Workflow automation relies on more than 70 code-free workflow templates to automate routine tasks that data center admins would otherwise perform manually or write scripts to automate. With IT360, admins can create or modify automated workflows via an intuitive, drag-and-drop interface.

Network change and configuration management lets data center admins configure multi-vendor network devices such as routers, switches and firewalls directly from IT360. In addition, IT360 can detect a configuration change in a network device, alert admins to the change and roll back the device to its previous, pre-change state.

3-D rack builder enables data center staff to create an exact, three-dimensional replica of their data center infrastructure on screen. Admins can easily build racks and check the health of associated network elements via the drag-and-drop console. Unlike isolated rack builders, the IT360 3-D rack builder displays the real-time status of each element, so admins can visually model the entire data center from the NOC screens.

In a recent survey by ManageEngine, approximately 46 percent of data center managers report they are tired of multiple data collecting nodes and are looking to consolidate nodes. Meanwhile, 32 percent report they lack the analytics needed to make informed decisions.

“True data center infrastructure management consolidates the administration of all hardware, software and environmental components across a support stack onto a single console interface,” noted Steve Brasen, managing research director at Enterprise Management Associates. “By extending the IT360 solution to deliver functionality that targets key requirements in facilities management, ManageEngine has achieved a milestone in enabling holistic infrastructure monitoring and management that will drive proactive IT optimizations, efficiencies and cost-reductions.”

Pricing and Availability

IT360 10.1 is now available for download at http://www.manageengine.com/it360/download.html. For IT360 pricing, please visit http://www.manageengine.com/it360/get-quote.html.

It is designed to monitor and manage IT infrastructures for medium and large enterprises adds a business context to monitoring IT resources to help the various stakeholders understand the impact of downtimes on the business. IT360 comprises network performance, change and configuration, server and application performance, database performance, and end-user experience management for IT operations and an ITIL help desk for IT service management, all in one product.

I’m Not a Monster Spearheads Nationwide Donation Drive to Benefit Homeless Pets

As we enter the holiday season, I'm Not a Monster asks the communities to join a worthwhile cause: “Monster” Holiday Drive™ campaign—a nationwide annual shelter drive benefiting homeless pets waiting in shelters and temporary boarding facilities.

The “Monster” Holiday Drive is in its second year and is entirely volunteer-driven. “We have 34 “Monster” Elves supporting 50 shelters and rescues. That’s more than 250,000 caring, passionate animal lovers and advocates on social media, making this year's drive bigger than ever,” states Imelda Suriato, Founder of I’m Not a Monster. “Last year we collected $20,000 in donations. Our goal this year is $40,000.”

“This is something that hasn’t been done before by animal welfare organizations on a nationwide scale such as this. Our goal is for this to be the Toys for Tots for animals in need, uniting the local communities in a common cause and shining a light on the plight of shelter animals across the U.S.”

Community members are invited to join and they can set up collection drives to benefit a local shelter or rescue group of their choice. To help as many homeless as possible, “Monster” Elves are enlisted—including Elle the Pit Bull, 2013 American Humane Association’s Hero Dog Winner—to organize drives benefitting their communities’ animal shelters and pet-rescue organizations. Learn more at MonsterHolidayDrive.com.

Shelters are experiencing greater need than ever before but this drive can make a huge difference this holiday season. “Being in a shelter is not fun for any pet. Together, we can make a difference in their world while they wait for their forever homes.”

About I’m Not a Monster:
I’m Not A Monster is an advocacy initiative that aims to dispel myths associated with misunderstood dog breeds, particularly pit bulls. Along with educating the public, the initiative promotes shelter pet adoption and networks animals in need. It is a 100%-privately funded philanthropic effort and all profits are donated to animal welfare organizations across the US.

Introducing the Recalcitrant Press

The Recalcitrant Press announces the introduction of its new website dedicated to literary fiction and essays.

The Recalcitrant Press is a new electronic imprint based in New York. Not a publishing company in the traditional sense, it’s a virtual press, an electronic imprint, a medium for making available literary work that would otherwise remain hidden.

The creation and dissemination of fiction, essays, and poetry doesn’t need to be in the hands of a few large corporations. After all, inspiration rarely occurs in the conference room. Writing exists in a different dimension and views the world in a very different way.

The Recalcitrant Press will seek to publish works that have been created outside the confines of the conventional structures.

Learn what this means at www.RecalcitrantPress.com

The first works to be published by The Recalcitrant Press are Dark Angels: A Novel of the Future Past and The Recalcitrant Scrivener: Essays on Book Publishing in the Age of the Web.

Will The Recalcitrant Press revolutionize the way literary fiction reaches readers? Probably not, but we will damn well try. . .

Zakeya Celebrates The 100th Centennial With Delta Sigma Theta At The Winterfest Boat Parade

Zakeya Foster is known to get out and see all of the happenings in Miami, but this weekend she wanted to try something new. Taking loads of pictures and taking in the breathtaking scenery of all the sights and sounds, Zakeya joined the celebration of the 2013 Winterfest Boat Parade to celebrate with the Delta Sigma Theta's.

Noted as one of the most popular winter celebrations in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, the Winterfest Boat Parade encompasses 100 boats decorated in Christmas lights and holiday decorations. Filled with great music and exciting people, the decorated boats lined the marina to cruise the waters for onlookers to see. Home owners decorate and local businesses celebrate while others lined up for the event as early as 8:00 am on Saturday, December 14, 2013. Boats were docked and filled with small tailgating parties while others tailgated in the streets waiting for the show to begin, as the parade is one of the most anticipated events on Lake Santa Barbara.

This year was Zakeya's first time attending the event and her experience was that much better as she celebrated with Delta Sigma Theta Sorority as they capped their 100-year Centennial Celebration in the Winterfest Boat Parade. "The weather was perfect, the food was great, and the music was phenomenal," says Zakeya. "I've watched this parade for years on television, but I've never experienced it live. Never in a million years did I think my first opportunity to see the Winterfest Boat Parade would be with me actually being a part of it. This was a spectacular event!" Being that this was the first time that any Greek Sorority or Fraternity had ever participated in the parade, the Delta's made history as their boat sailed Lake Santa Barbara and Zakeya got to witness firsthand just what this celebration meant their Sorority.

To invite Classy Connections with Zakeya to your next event, please email Classeecc@gmail.com or call 786-505-4328 or watch us live on Monday's at 7p atwww.TruRhythmeTV.com.

Evan Guthrie Law Firm Gives Estate Planning And Wills To First Responders In Charleston, SC

Attorney Evan Guthrie of the Evan Guthrie Law Firm in Charleston, South Carolina provided complimentary wills and estate planning to first responders for a Wills Clinic held in Charleston, SC on Saturday June, 22nd 2013. Mr. Guthrie helped plan the estates of several police, firefighters, and EMS personnel in an event put on by the Young Lawyers Division of the South Carolina Bar. The event was held at the Charleston School of Law and had many attorney and law student volunteers to help make the outing a success. First responders are especially vulnerable to the consequences of not having a plan in place due to the inherent dangerous nature of their jobs. The event is a show of appreciation for the service that these public servants provide and a way for the legal community in Charleston to give back through their law skills a most important area of need. There is also a peace of mind that can be provided to family members of the responders from having one less thing to worry about if anything were to ever happen and a potentially messy probate situation can be prevented. A last will and testament is an important document for everyone to have, but it is even more important to those that are on the front lines of public safety and give so much to serve and place their lives in danger.

This was the third year in a row that Attorney Evan Guthrie had taken part in the Charleston Wills Clinic for First Responders. Mr. Guthrie was joined at the event by his law clerk, Tyler McDonald, who helped draft wills for the participants and their spouses. Mr. Guthrie enjoyed his time that he was able to donate to such a worthy cause and being able to use his estate planning skills to give back to the community in such an important way. Attorney Guthrie looks forward to being able to return to be a part of future wills clinic for first responders in many years to come.

Evan Guthrie Law Firm is licensed to practice law throughout the state of South Carolina. The Evan Guthrie Law Firm practices in the areas of estate planning, probate, elder law, wills, living trust, special needs trusts, personal injury, accident, divorce and family law, and entertainment law.   Urbanspoon http://www.urbanspoon.com/u/profile/3861749 Ohloh https://www.ohloh.net/accounts/ekglaw Shoutlife http://www.shoutlife.com/profile_view.cfm?uid=215963 Evan Guthrie Law Firm 164 Market St #362 Charleston, SC 29401 (843) 926-3813

Throwaway? No Way. Bright, Colorful Poinsettias Can Beautify Households During and After Holidays

Planning to discard your poinsettias after the holidays? Think again. The bright, colorful flower can continue to thrive long after Christmas is past, and even be conditioned to bloom again for Christmas 2014.

“It’s a shame that most people throw away poinsettias when the holidays are over. These beautiful, adaptable plants have a lot of life left,” said Denise Barnett, co-owner of Snapdragon Flowers of Elm Grove. “At the very least, a poinsettia’s vibrant colors can be enjoyed into February if the plant is cared for.”

With some love, diligence and darkness, she added, a poinsettia can burst into bloom again next Christmas season. Given how a poinsettia grows and spreads, the flowers might be even bigger and brighter.

Buying a healthy poinsettia is the first step. Plants with dried-up leaves should be avoided. The poinsettia’s flower petals – the yellow, red and orange spires inside the red leaves – should be bright and firm. If powdery or dry, the plant is past its prime, Barnett explained.

Poinsettias thrive in sunlight, but not direct light. They are sensitive to cold and overwatering. If a poinsettia (http://www.elmgroveflowershop.com/product.php?productid=1...) pot is wrapped in decorative foil, the covering should be removed to drain water, Barnett said. Maintaining moist soil is ideal; excess water harms the plant. Speaking of which, poinsettias are not dangerous, either.

“Contrary to a long-held myth, poinsettias are not poisonous,” Barnett said. “Your dog or cat might get sick from eating them, as with any plant. They won’t die, though.”

Encouraging a poinsettia (http://www.elmgroveflowershop.com/product.php?productid=1...) to bloom again isn’t hard. The bright red leaves, called bracts, will drop off by February’s end. The plant’s green leaves will keep growing. New leaves will appear.

Starting in very early October, the plant should be kept in a totally dark space (ideally a closet) for 12 hours per day. Complete darkness is crucial, Barnett said. Even night light from street lamps can hinder the process.

The bracts, or red leaves, will begin to reappear. The darkness treatment can be ended. The poinsettia is on its way to becoming a bright beacon of joy and color for the holidays – ready to be enjoyed all over again.

The Tradition of the Prom Garter

Prom Garter Tradition

Everyone remembers their Prom. It’s the first formal event you will experience that is geared just for you. Consider it your ‘coming out’ or ‘promenade’ into the next phase of your young adult life filled with new adventures and responsibilities.

The Prom Garter is a keepsake that will have lasting memories of this wonderful time. It will be part of the photographs, your corsage and other treasures in your scrapbook or hide-a-way. You will treasure the thoughts of all the excitement of having your hair done in that perfect style, the crazy nail polish with the fancy design and endless discussions with your girlfriends.

Your Prom Dress will be a gown or formal ‘after five’ dress in the color that most compliments you. Complete the look with fashionable shoes and purse; your beautiful accent jewelry and favorite perfume.

Your Date will be in black or white formal wear with the accent color of his vest, bow tie, and cummerbund to match YOUR gown. He will present you with a corsage (usually wrist) that will incorporate your colors. The boutonniere you give to him to be worn on his lapel and will coordinate with the color scheme.

Your Prom Garter should match your gown color or it can match your jewelry in silver or gold accent. There are many choices. You can have your Prom Garter personalized with your names & event; you can have a particular charm added; you may want 2 identical garters – one for your keepsake and one to give to him; or, one a little fancier for you and not as embellished for him. Considering all circumstances, you may just want one Prom Garter for yourself or just to give to him.

You can present the Prom Garter and boutonniere to him at your home when he gives you the corsage and pictures are taken. Some high schools have a garter ceremony before the dance begins where the girl (you) removes her prom garter and gives it to her date to wear as an armband. As you see, the color of your gown, his matching accent color, and the prom garter displayed on his arm completes the look of you as a ‘couple’.

Note:  Unlike the bride’s garter, the prom garter is meant to be removed by the girl herself (you) and given to her date to wear on his arm.  The first time your prom date should come in contact with the prom garter is when YOU give it to him. He does not take it off your leg.

4D Printing Start-up Printvid Launches Crowdfunding Campaign to Raise $45,000

TALLINN, Estonia — December 15, 2013 — Printvid is the world’s first full package for making four-dimensional video prints, which can be displayed without the use of any electronic devices, special headgear or glasses. This is a new way to preserve memories, capture life's best moments and just have fun.
“We consider a standard photo print as 2D, because it is just a still image.” said Yury Lebedev, founder of Printvid. “The 3rd and 4th dimensions we can get with the use of lenticular lens. The 3rd dimension is the 3D depth. The 4th dimension is time, because it shows not just a still image, but scenes in motion. Now we can make 4D prints, which are protected from water, scratches and color fading”

4D printing is possible on conventional inkjet printers due to a combination of improved lenticular printing technology and cloud software. There are a lot of uses for Printvid, it can be used to print videos and GIFs, create 3D Art, toys and educational materials for children, 4D magnets, greeting cards, smartphone cases and much more.

Users can prepare photos and videos for 4D printing through the Printvid Cloud app. They can apply templates, filters and effects, add texts and frames to their content. Then file will be interlaced and prepared for 4D printing. This is a web based app, so users have the flexibility to edit their content through any device that has a compatible web browser. Printvid works nicely with inkjet printers having 300+ DPI, most printers today are capable of printing 1200 to 4800 DPI. Inkjet printers with higher DPI allow using more frames per 4D print, which means users can make longer animations and better depth effects.

Printvid is a crowdfunding project with the funding goal of $45,000.

About Printvid
Printvid is a Tallinn-based tech startup with the team located in Estonia, Russia and India. The team focused on the development of cloud software and improvement of lenticular printing technology, so that anyone could create a 4D print using smartphone and inkjet printer.

New Tween/YA Ebook, Mystery of the Gable on Holly Drive, vol. 4, Betsy Butters Books, Is Published

Las Vegas, Nevada – DATE, YEAR – Mystery of the Gable on Holly Drivel, fourth in the series of Betsy Butters Books, by author, Jenifer Rubloff, is being published today, and will be available as an ebook online through Amazon.com.

The Story: Teen detective Betsy Butters is in Bradley Hall, a posh California boarding school, with friend Nancy whom she met in their Swiss boarding school. Life in Los Angeles is very different than in Montreux, but Betsy quickly makes friends, has a few explosive experiences, and even gets a ”show biz” name.

While exploring the campus for art, she spots an abused oil painting. This is the catalyst for revelations about thefts and cover ups in Bradley Hall and off campus.

Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the world, and in her volunteer work, Betsy is paired with an older French ex-pat who came to Los Angeles to make it big in the music business for film. This unusual pairing leads to a remarkable discovery.

Across the country, Betsy’s French boyfriend Alex is studying at the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His part-time job at Christie’s auction house offers him an opportunity to make quite an impression with his keen detective work.

Betsy finds connections with Westwood’s Paris Pastry shop and her favorite pastry shop in Montreux. She takes that as “a sign” that she’s where she should be, for now. In the process of solving the mystery of the Gable on Holly Drive and other crimes, Betsy makes powerful friends in LA’s art and music scene, but not without making vengeful enemies.

Mystery of the Gable on Holly Drive is available online through Amazon.com.

About the Author: As a teenager in boarding schools in Switzerland and the U.S., Jenifer Rubloff learned from the people she met and the friends she made about different cultures, customs, religions, and cuisines. When she sat in her school study halls, on many nights, she’d play “what if” with her imagination about what could happen in her school with only a small tweak to reality. As an author of fiction, Rubloff twists reality to share her experiences and fascination with how people and events can be interconnected.

Jane Austen started it, and two hundred years later we keep coming back for more.

Darcy was not looking to fall in love. He thought he had it all: wealth, privilege, and ardent passion for his sport. Then he meets Miss Elizabeth Bennet, and soon thereafter he knows that she is the woman with whom he is destined to spend his life.

Having suffered a traumatic loss, Elizabeth knows the pain of heartache. She is determined to shield herself against forming strong attachments so she might never feel that way again. Then Mr. Darcy comes along, and he has a way of melting all her defenses.

A Lasting Love Affair: Darcy and Elizabeth is available now on Amazon.

Humidifiers & Indoor Air Quality Discussed in New Online Video

Today, the IAQ Video Network and Cochrane & Associates announced the release of another online video to help educate people about issues that may impact their health.  Their latest educational video discusses the use of humidifiers and how they can impact the indoor air quality of a home.

Humidifiers are often used in homes to relieve the physical discomforts brought on by dry air. The moisture they add indoors can also help to alleviate common nuisances brought on by winter heating, such as static electricity, peeling wallpaper and cracks in paint and furniture. However, excessive moisture in a building can also encourage the growth of biological organisms in the home. These may include dust mites and mold which can cause allergies and other conditions.

“Recently, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) alerted consumers to possible health hazards resulting from dirty room humidifiers,”reports Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video.  “The agency found that bacteria and fungi often grow in the tanks of portable and console room humidifiers and can be released in the mist. Breathing this dirty mist may cause lung problems ranging from flu-like symptoms to serious infections.  Minerals can also sometimes be found in the mist and settle as a fine white dust.  These dust particles may be small enough to enter people’s lungs.  It is important that people follow the manufacturer’s suggestions for use and care of these products to prevent potential problems.”

This educational video was sponsored by a number of organizations and leading industry professionals that help to protect the public’s health. Sponsors include: EMSL Analytical, LA Testing, Mold Solutions, Clark Seif Clark, MBM Insurance Resource Center, Zimmetry Environmental and Healthy Indoors magazine to name a few.

Sanford, Florida Law Office Joins The Seminole County Regional Chamber of Commerce

P&L Law recently joined the chamber as an opportunity to get more involved in the Seminole County, Florida area.  “Our law office is located in Sanford Florida at 820 West Lake Mary Boulevard, which is in the heart of Seminole County.  It made sense for us to join one of the larger chambers in the area with the goal of getting more involved in the business community ” says Shannon Liatsos, Attorney and Counselor at Law at P&L Law.

P&L Law specializes in civil litigation, family law, bankruptcy law, business and commercial litigation as well as real estate law.  The firm represents clients in a variety of industries.  “There are so many choices when searching for legal aid in the Seminole County Florida area.  Legal matters can be stressful and as Florida attorneys we take a personal approach with our clients.  Family law can be tough especially when children are involved.  A divorce attorney takes the children’s well being into consideration during the entire separation process” explains Kristina Paulter, Attorney and Counselor at Law at P&L Law.

P&L Law offers legal advice to families and couples seeking separation, annulment, or divorce.  Both Liatsos and Paulter have experience in divorce court and guide their clients on how to file for divorce, and also assist their clients with uncontested divorces and child custody matters.   Paulter adds, “Separation is a process.  Some couples think it will take 30 -60 days to complete, however, when dealing with family law it usually takes longer as there is often an estate, life insurance policy and investments involved in a separation or divorce.”  Paulter also explained, "Florida does not recognize legal separation, a common misconception."

In addition to family law, the attorneys at P&L Law also serve as legal aid for clients filing for bankruptcy including chapter 7 and chapter 13.  As bankruptcy attorneys Paulter and Liatsos have diverse experience in the State of Florida.  They have worked with a number of clients in filing bankruptcy for personal or business.  Paulter adds “When clients come to us they typically don’t know the first step in filing for bankruptcy.  They are unaware of the bankruptcy forms that must be filed, and many don’t know the difference between a chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy filing.  As a bankruptcy lawyer, we guide clients through the entire bankruptcy court process.”

P&L Law also offers services to clients involved in commercial, civil and business litigation matters.  They assist clients who have been involved in personal injury incidents as well as clients involved in causes of actions with motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, negligent security, premises liability, and construction defect claims.  The Seminole County lawyers at P&L Law are experienced defense attorneys and have experience in representing large and small companies in the Florida court system.

P&L Law is located at 820 West Lake Mary Boulevard, suite 102, Sanford Florida 32773.  Consumers looking for legal advice and legal aid in the areas of family law, bankruptcy law, civil litigation, business and commercial litigation, real estate law and personal injury are encouraged to call Paulter and Liatsos, LLC at 407-255-8191 or visit online at www.plattorneys.com.
