The Cheesecake Factory Wins Again

$

0

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


(Newswire.net -- February 8, 2013) Los Angeles, CA -- The Center for Science and the Public Interest has released its annual Xtreme eating list for 2013.   Get ready to feel guilty. 


As it turns out, the one restaurant chain that has made more appearances in the last four Xtreme Eating lists than any other is also one of the most popular restaurant chains in the country – The Cheesecake Factory.  They have had eight appearances in the last four articles.   Maybe there’s a connection? 


This year the Cheesecake Factory didn’t disappoint and provided two dishes that by calorie counts would mean you wouldn’t have to eat again for the next two days. 


Before giving out the numbers here is what is recommended by the U.S. government’s 2010 dietary guidelines daily intake:



  • Calories:  1,600 to 2,400 calories per day for adult women and 2,000 to 3,000 calories per day for adult men, depending on age and physical activity level.



  • Saturated fat:  20 grams



  • Sodium:  1,500 grams



  • Added Sugar:  Women consume no more than six teaspoons of added sugars per day;  men consume no more than nine.


Now here’s the numbers for the two dishes that made it on the list from The Cheesecake Factory:


Bistro Shrimp Pasta - 3 ½ cups of pasta with butter and cream sauce and topped with battered and fried shrimp.



  • 3,120 calories;  89 grams saturated fat;  1,090 milligrams of sodium


Crispy Chicken Costoletta – oil soaked breaded chicken breast in butter sauce with three-quarter pound serving of mashed potatoes with butter and cream and lastly fresh asparagus.



  • 2,610 calories;  89 grams of saturated fat;  2,720 milligrams of sodium


Donald Evans, the restaurant chain's chief marketing officer said in a statement “The Cheesecake Factory has always been about choices. Many of our guests come in and want to celebrate and not be concerned with calories.”   Diners frequently share their dishes or take home leftovers and the menu contains lighter fare, he added.  Beginning in August 2011, The Cheesecake Factory has promoted its "SkinnyLicious" menu of entrees with 590 or fewer calories.


Other Xtreme Eating 2013 winners included:



  • Johnny Rockets Bacon Cheddar Double Hamburger:  1,770 calories, 50 grams of saturated fat and 2,380 milligrams of sodium.

  • Johnny Rockets Big Apple Shake:  1,140 calories, 37 grams of saturated fat, and 13 teaspoons of added sugar

  • IHOP’s Country Fried Steak & Eggs:  1,760 calories, 23 grams of saturated fat, 3,720 milligrams of sodium (more than 2 days worth!)

  • Smoothie King’s Peanut Power Plus Grape Smoothie.  A 40 oz. large i.e.  “The King”:  1.460 calories, and 22 teaspoons of added sugar

  • Chili’s Full Rack of Baby Back Ribs with Shiner Bock BBQ sauce:  1,660 calories, 39 grams of saturated fat, and 5,025 milligrams of sodium (more than 3 days worth!)

  • Maggiano’s Little Italy’s Chocolate Zuccotto Cake at five inches tall and four inches wide and weighing in at just under a pound:  1,820 calories, 62 grams of saturated fat (3 days worth) and 26 teaspoons of added sugar.


Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes were not mentioned, which typically hover around 1,000 calories a slice.  Maybe it’s just considered the new norm.


Who wants to see the calories anyway?  When you’re dining in a restaurant like this, could it be possible most people would rather see the recipes for those cheesecakes than the calories?

The Trading & Investment Education Institute Introduces New Course: Using Technical Analysis To Trade Commodities

$

0

(Newswire.net via emailnewswire.com) February 7, 2013 -- Most commodity day traders rely heavily on technical analysis to dictate their trading plan.  The T.I.E. Institute teaches much more than the basics of trading. Their premise is you will be able to read charts on any timeframe for any commodity and make trades with precision.


When Learning How to Trade Commodities & Futures With Minimal Risk You must first understand how to analyze the market and make well informed decisions. This requires an understanding of each market you wish to trade on a fundamental basis and even more important you must completely understand Technical analysis.


Charts give an accurate description as to what is occurring in the market at any point of time.  Since trading the market is largely based on fear and greed, the T.I.E. Institute instructs students to use their superior strategies in charting to predict with a high degree of accuracy where an underlying instrument will go in any timeframe. 


With the T.I.E. Institute New Full on Trading Course you will learn how to effectively and precisely trade from the charts.  T.I.E. is doing the research for their students, giving them more time to trade and make money consistently.


Following the trend is one of the golden rules of trading.


Typically with technical trading, you will want to either buy an up-trending commodity when it is breaking out to new highs or when it’s trending down you will want to follow it down. T.I.E. Institute teaches their students how to make consistent money if the market is moving up or down.


The first thing you want to do is learn how to read charts and get a basic understanding of what types of patterns and indicators might setup market moves. From there, you can move on to more advanced commodity trading strategies with technical analysis all taught to you by the T.I.E. Institute in their new full on trading course.


It is important to understand that technical analysis is not an exact science. It is more of an art. But without a good understanding of how to read the charts and predict movement you will be susceptible to getting slaughtered by the 10% who have the training.


Students of T.I.E. are taught the secrets of reading the technical analysis charts so they can have the confidence to trade futures and options without fear.  They learn how to day trade with momentum so risk is minimized and & the payout is puffed-up.


According to Dr. David; “The Trading & Investment Education (T.I.E.) Institute has the proven track record in training the 10% who actually make big money in the trading industry if that means Options, Stocks, Futures or FOREX. Bottom Line: T.I.E. Students Learn How To Make Money...No Matter Which Direction the Market Moves!”

Calgary Chiropractor Reminds us that Sports Injuries Need to be Treated Promptly

$

(Newswire.net -- Feb 8, 2013) Calgary, AB -- With the super bowl over, after an exciting Baltimore Ravens win, Dr. Jamila Abdulla is stressing that sports such as football and hockey can cause tremendous force on the human body, and injuries often occur as a result. In addition, people that play basketball, tennis, and soccer also experience a lot of injuries that need to be addressed.


 Athletes and active people need to have their injuries diagnosed right away so that they can try and avoid chronic pain. Some of the injuries they may suffer to varying degrees, include damage to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. Receiving prompt chiropractic care can lessen the effects of these injuries and get a person back in the game a lot sooner than just hoping that the pain will go away.


Abdulla uses chiropractic techniques such as graston and active release to help her patients recover and supplements that, with massage therapy when necessary. For anyone that has never tried a chiropractor she stresses that chiropractors do not crack bones or joints. They work on the soft tissues around the bones and joints and any sound you hear is from the fluid in the joint. In addition, she says that it is not always necessary to keep going back once your pain is gone, but a periodic checkup may be a good idea.


 "There is a preventative aspect here too where we can help an athlete to avoid injuries in the first place". With our aging population wanting to stay active, sports injuries will become more and more prevalent as older people embrace tennis, running, and golf. They will need a maintenance plan to  know what to do to avoid recurring injuries and stay mobile in general. They may be using improper equipment or using the wrong technique such as their golf grip or swing which can then cause discomfort or pain.


 Some forms of Chiropractic care have been around for thousands of years with ancient Greek and Chinese physicians writing about the importance of spinal care. More recently, Chiropractic care started gaining popularity in the late nineteenth century with Daniel Palmer being credited with starting the profession.

(Newswire.net -- 6, February, 2013) St. Petersburg, Fl -- No matter how many workouts you do, it can seem like your biceps just won’t improve. MuscleBuildingExpert.org’s Ryan Magin has now found an arm workout that will help. With his workout, it is possible to gain an inch in just one week. 


Ryan struggled, like many, to build his biceps no matter how much training he did. Because of that, he decide to try a program that was completely experimental but based on his own research. The Arm Experiment was shortly created that offers a three day a week program that will build the biceps and give the look you are after.


This three day a week biceps workout program is completed in three stages during the week. The first is the rhythm day, which focuses purely on the brachialis muscle in the bicep. The second is the heavy form day, which helps with stimulating the motor units considerably and the third is the controlled tempo day and was created after following Charles Poliquin, the strength coach, and Branch Warren, the IFBB Pro Bodybuilder.


Ryan recommends that those who follow this workout do nothing else during the week. “Your arms will be sore,” he stated, “Anymore than these 3 arm workouts and your nervous system will be taxed to the point of overtraining.”


His program The Arm Experiment is not just about doing the exercises. Ryan also takes supplements to help him with his recovery period and to make sure he gains the right nutrients, which are important to help with building the biceps.


Ryan is giving the biceps workout away free for a limited time at http://musclebuildingexpert.org/arm-experiment.

(Newswire.net -- February, 8th, 2013) Goodyear, AZ -- Do you know someone who suffers from acne? Do you think they would like to resolve it with professional help? Everyone knows that professional skincare treatments are typically the best way to resolve acne problems.  However, it can be an expensive proposition and may not be an affordable solution, especially for pre-teens and teenagers.  

Approximately 8 out of every 10 teens and pre-teens experience various forms of acne, from mild symptoms to acne vulgaris, one of the more severe forms.  Most of these people are literally uncomfortable in their own skin and are self-conscious.  Many times acne is hereditary and the parents can relate to their child's affliction and want to provide help, but either don't know how or can't afford professional help.

That is why Skincare Extraordinaire just started offering free acne treatments for these young adults and children. The company just recently opened their doors in the Goodyear AZ area, and made a bold decision to offer free acne treatments to teens and pre-teens, with the simple purchase of an affordable home skincare kit.  The goal is to help these young people feel better about how they appear and improve their self-esteem and image.

The announcement was made by owner Tammi Harriss-Halim, a licensed esthetician, who claims to offer the best skin care treatments in Goodyear, AZ.  When asked about her generous decision to donate their acne treatments, Tammi has this to say, "My heart just goes out to these wonderful kids.  I've been fortunate to work with one particular teenager, and in just a handful of sessions, he has seen a significant improvement in his skin condition.  I sincerely believe that if I make a consistent effort to be generous to the community and kids, then parents will choose to support me too.  I love the fact that people can witness the great results I can create and that people can see the difference.  It's so rewarding when these young adults get so many compliments on how their skin looks better by friends and family, and the big smiles on their faces!"

In essence, Skincare Extraordinaire, is providing professional acne treatments in Goodyear to local teens and pre-teens at no cost, in exchange for a home care kit designed to supplement the in-store sessions.  The word has started to get around, and Tammi isn't sure how long she can continue to make the current offer.  If you know a teenager or a pre-teen that needs acne treatments, you should let them know right away to schedule their first appointment before all the spots are gone.

In addition to acne treatments, Skincare Extraordinaire offers a full array of various skin treatments like microdermabrasions, microcurrent facelifts, brow tinting, waxing, and facials.  One current special includes a full 70-minute facial with a skin analysis, two cleanings, toning throughout, steam (if recommended/desired), a manual exfoliation that dissolves the surface dead skin cells, an enzyme peel, extractions if needed, eye serum, facial serum, a conditioning mask, a moisturizer & sunscreen.

Compromise Agreement Settlements Set To Increase Amid Soaring Redundancy Payments

$

(Newswire.net -- February 9, 2013) Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, UK -- "Basic weekly pay" which is used to calculate basic entitlement for redundancy pay,  certain other employment tribunal awards and in some compromise agreement settlements, has gone up from £430 per week to £450 per week, for each full year worked by an employee.

So from 1st February, an employee aged 33 and employed for 7 full years as at the date of termination of employment, is now entitled to receive a basic redundancy package of £3,150 (7 x £450), an increase of £140.00, on the basis that the employee's weekly pay is equal to or more than £450 per week (gross).

At the top end of the scale, the maximum compensatory award for an unfair dismissal claims increase from £72,300 to £74,200.

With the continuing economic uncertainty in the UK and the complex nature of UK employment laws, terminating an employees contract of employment lawfully and with any degree of certainty that employees will not sue for further compensation is the major concern for many employers.

Not surprisingly therefore, many employers are preferring the additional security provided in getting an employee to enter into an employment compromise agreement before terminating employees' contracts of employment.

However, compromise agreement must satisfy certain legal formalities for a compromise agreement to have the full force of the law behind it and to be recognised as legally binding. The most important legal requirement is that the employee obtain independent legal advice on the terms of settlement.

Employees need to be careful to ensure that they get competent and thorough legal advice before finalising settlement terms, since once an agreement is executed by the parties, there is rarely an opportunity later for an employee to undo and renegotiate terms of severance.

With UK companies under increasing pressure to make cost savings to remain profitable particularly with UK economic output continuing to stagnate, the past 4 years has seen a steady increase in the number of employers using tough trading conditions as an opportunity to restructure and lay staff off.

However, Graham Cardona of Cardona & Co solicitor, a employment compromise agreement expert cautions that "employers are still required to satisfy the legal definition of redundancy to lawfully terminate an employee's contract of employment on grounds of redundancy. Failing to do so, exposes employers to potential law suits".

Graham Cardona further speculates that this may be one factor driving the increase use of compromise agreements by employers seeking to shed staff, since compromise agreements give employers some security from legal action by employees.

At risk employees should therefore consider taking early legal guidance in situations of redundancy, particularly if the employer is asking outgoing members of staff to sign a settlement or compromise agreement.

How a Small Size Church Can Be a Big Help To A Child

$

(Newswire.net -- February 8, 2013) Lynnwood, WA -- Last week Refuge Church, Lynnwood, Washington, raised over $3,000 to help purchase a wheelchair-accessible van for a family whose child has a brain tumor and is wheelchair bound.  Church members organized the rummage sale.


Tahlia Boyd, age 7, was diagnosed with a severe brain tumor over a year ago.  After months of hospitalization, Tahlia was able to return home just after Christmas.  This was an incredible blessing, but it also forced the family to make radical changes to their home and vehicle to allow for her wheelchair.  Accomplishing the needed changes to the van will cost approximately $80,000. 


Tahlia’s dad, Eric, recounts their story.  "In March she began to have issues walking. She would fall down and we just chalked it up to growing pains.”  As balance issues progressed, their doctor ordered an MRI.


Tahlia was diagnosed with pilocytic astrocytoma, a non-cancerous tumor on her brain stem.  She began to have radiation treatment, which shrank the tumor but also caused severe pain.


Tahlia began having difficulty breathing and was admitted to Seattle Children’s Hospital. She eventually was given a tracheotomy to help her breath, but she developed some serious infections.


Today, Tahlia is home, infection free, and able to wheel around in her electric wheelchair.  She has a long battle ahead of her, but there is hope for every step of the way.


In addition to the fundraiser, Refuge Church has provided dinners and childcare, run errands, and of course prayed for the Boyds.


 This is a great way to help this family deal with emotional and financial stress. Isn’t that what a church family is all about?

Smart Business Owners Turn To Online Reputation Marketing

$

(Newswire.net - - February 8, 2013) Philadelphia, PA -- With the recession lasting longer than anyone expected, local business owners  looking for the best ROI are spending their advertising dollars with great care.  As such, many business owners who are looking to develop their brand are turning to the newest trend in advertising, online reputation marketing. 


One local marketing company has noticed a recent trend with business owners in where their advertising money is getting earmarked.  This company is Best 5 Star Reputation and they have been providing reputation marketing services for Philadelphia businesses. The service is designed to help businesses develop, market and maintain an industry leading 5 star reputation


Russ Royal, owner of Best 5 Star Reputation said “ We are seeing a change in the marketing industry. The prevalence of social media review sites like Yelp, Yellow Pages and Google Plus, have created a situation where businesses are forced to build their sales the way it was done 40 years ago: by word of mouth. And, with all of the business reviews that are appearing online, business owners must pay attention to what’s being said about them online.    


Russ also commented “any Google search that includes a specific market: plumbers, electricians or just about anything in Philadelphia, will produce a list of business that have reviews attached. And, the whole world gets to see them! Would you choose the business with poor reviews or the business with a 5 star reputation? You would go with the business with the stellar reputation.”


An Opinion Research Corporation survey proves the point made by Russ.  84% of Americans say online reviews influence their purchasing decisions. Additionally the study finds that 70% of consumers will change their minds if bad reviews are present. Further 58% of consumers trust business with good reviews.


Russ went on to say, “ Many business owners have no idea of what their online profile looks like so I offer a free online reputation report and training that details the actions that can be taken create an industry leading reputation.”


 


Given the data, one can only conclude that as more businesses recognize the value of reputation marketing, they will budget more advertising dollars to developing their brand.  Spending money for advertising and SEO that places a business on the first page of Google may be misplaced if 70% of it's visitors go somewhere else due to poor reviews. Thus, business owners should be aware that their online reputation might be costing them many customers, and the worst part is, they might even know why.

Carmen Paradis Calgary RE/MAX Real Estate Agent Launches a New Website

(Newswire.net -- Feb 9, 2013) Calgary, AB -- Paradis has decided to offer her clients and prospective clients what they want most - simplicity. People don't want to waste any time trying to find what they want on a website. They have very short attention spans and if they can't get to the content they need within seconds, they will look elsewhere. With this in mind she wanted them to be able to search for homes in Calgary with one click of their mouse. "When someone lands on my site they won't have to think, they will just react".


If a person knows that they want a single family home, why should they sift through condos mixed in with the houses? They can simply click on an icon of a house or a condo, and then choose the neighbourhood they are interested in. Also, the listings are updated every hour, so buyers will never miss out on any hot new listings. If they are not sure what quadrant or corner of the city they would like to live in, they can simply click on the icon of a map and they will be able to zoom in to any area of the city and see all of the Calgary home listings


This intuitive new site also features tons of information on every neighbourhood in Calgary,  with detailed descriptions of the history and amenities of every community. Buyers will be able to research schools in the area and find out where their kids will be bussed if there is no option in their neighbourhood. They will be able to see what types of homes are featured from condos to bungalows and front attached garage homes. There is information on transportation options and transit so they can figure out how long it will take to get to work. Finally, there is information on parks and recreational opportunities such as golf courses and tennis courts. Each community description has its own map so you can see where the neighbourhood is in relation to the rest of the city.


For sellers there are articles on how to get your home ready to sell, along with numerous RE/MAX videos that explain what you need to do and why you need to do it. Paradis explains that there several things that you must do to get a good price for your home. She says it all starts with curb appeal because if the outside doesn't look good, the buyer will form a negative opinion right away and they may not even go inside.

New Digital and Social Media Skills Required by US Executives

(Newswire.net -- February 9, 2013) Los Angeles, CA -- Several studies have highlighted the need for executives to learn digital skills in 2013. The LinkedIn study of professional goals revealed that top of the list for 2013 is “professional development through learning new skills”. The IDC 2013 Chief Marketing Officer Predictions report focuses on the need for digital analytics and says 50% of new hires will be required to have these skills. The Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) has identified learning the skills necessary to master digital and social media as one of the top concerns for the industry.  


“Sadly, many schools do not yet teach these skills in marketing and PR,” says Meritus Media CEO, Sally Falkow. “According to the IDC report half of new hires in marketing and PR will have a technical background because the company needs those skills. However just having technical skills won’t solve the problem. The perfect hire is someone with marketing and PR knowledge and experience and these new technical skills.”


The Meritus Media award-winning digital and social media training program addresses the skills required for PR and marketing success in 2013 and beyond.


The new trends emerging as essential to marketing and PR success that demand these skills are:



  1. Monitoring (Skill:  Data Mining - how to find and listen to relevant social media conversations)

  2. Content analysis (Skill: Social Intelligence - how to extract actionable insights from the data gathered)

  3. Visual communication (Skills:  Content - how to create and distribute original, sharable images, infographics, videos)

  4. Measuring results (Skills: Analytics - how to tie activity to business goals and track outcomes and results.)


Falkow was named PR Trainer of the Year for the Meritus Media digital and social media strategy training program she developed in 2009. To date more than 1,000 agency and corporate executives have completed this training.  “Most marketing and PR students complete their courses without these skills, yet companies require them in a new hire,” notes Falkow. “People already in a PR or marketing position who learned their craft 15 or 20 years ago need to learn these new skills to remain relevant in today’s digital world.”


The full curriculum of the training and coaching program is available on the Meritus Media website. http://www.meritusmedia.com

If Fred Flintstone Were Alive, Even He Would Have A Mobile Website

$

(Newswire.net -- February 9, 2013) Birmingham, AL-- Fusion One Marketing asks the question - How does your business and website look on a mobile device? This question is critical to your business forecast and future because everyone is going mobile. Regular websites are impossible to navigate on mobile phones and if you don’t have a mobile website in place, you will get left behind.


The fact is most people are never more than 3 feet away from their cell phone – even when they are sleeping!


There are 5.3 billion mobile subscribers (that’s 77 percent of the world population). Mobile Internet Usage is expected to double within five years as mobile devices overtake the PC as the most popular way to get on the Web.


People use their mobile devices for everything, including searching for businesses to purchase everyday items.  In many cases, they can even pay for their purchases straight from their mobile device too. Payments made from mobile devices could be over $1 trillion by 2015.


Mobile websites are specifically made for mobile devices to give customers easy access to information they need on the go. If your website is not optimized for these screen formats, it may cause a market barrier for your business.


Mobile websites do not take the place of your regular website.  They are an extension of it when people are looking at it on their mobile devices.  When you have a mobile website and someone uses a smart phone, Ipad or other mobile device to look at your website, the website recognizes that device and automatically switches them to the mobile friendly version.


Fusion One Marketing can custom design a mobile website for you that mirrors the look of your regular website with your logo, company colors and customized one touch buttons.  Your mobile website can offer the consumer a quick call button, map and directions to your business, business hours, social media icons linking to those sites and many other customizable options. 


Mobile websites are very affordable and can make all the difference in how your business is viewed.  You don’t want consumers choosing another business just because they can’t get easy access to you from their mobile device.  Plan to contact Fusion One Marketing and your business will be mobile ready in no time! 


About Fusion One Marketing


We help people market their business on the Internet.  Our services include logo, custom website design, search engine optimization, and social media management.  We can build what you need and provide ongoing monthly maintenance and support.  We will provide customized plans made just for your business.

Brookhaven Retreat Encourages Women to Celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Day

$

(Newswire.net -- February 16, 2013) Seymour TN --Feb. 17 is Random Acts of Kindness Day, a day created to encourage people to do something kind for others. Expressing gratitude is one kind of thoughtful act that has well-researched psychological benefits. On Feb. 17, Brookhaven Retreat encourages women to express gratitude to others as a way of improving mental health and encouraging positive emotions.


Gratitude emphasizes the things that women are thankful for and encourages positive thought processes, so that positive emotions become a natural, ingrained habit. But gratitude can do more than elevate spirits. In “Gratitude and well-being: a review of theoretical integration,” three researchers note that habitually appreciating life results in greater psychological well-being. 


According to gratitude researchers Drs. Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough, people who practice gratitude have healthier life habits: they eat more nutritiously, exercise regularly and attend routine medical appointments more often than those who don’t practice gratitude. A Hofstra University study reported that practicing gratitude reduces levels of depression and pain.


Gratitude promotes positive emotions, creates an optimistic outlook and improves mental and physical health. Its resulting positive attitude makes a significant difference in recovery from depression, bipolar and other mental health issues.


Women at Brookhaven Retreat express gratitude in a variety of ways. Weekly kudos to peers and staff members give women an opportunity to express gratefulness to those around them. Journaling allows women to try keeping a gratitude journal that encourages creating a routine of positive thoughts. Mindfulness exercises cultivate awareness and stress reduction, and help women focus on the things for which they are grateful.


For Random Acts of Kindness Day, Brookhaven Retreat encourages all women to express gratitude to those who have positively impacted their lives, and try to begin a gratitude routine. If continued, this habit of gratitude makes happiness, optimism and positivity habit, and trains the brain to think in a more positive way. This healthy habit supports mental wellness and is an integral part of recovery from bipolar disorder, anxiety and depression. Through gratitude, women take one step further toward creating a life worth living.


About Brookhaven Retreat 


Brookhaven Retreat is a women's treatment center nestled on a naturally beautiful 48-acre site secluded in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.  It has helped hundreds of women across the United States overcome depression, trauma, anxiety, substance use and a range of other behavioral health challenges.  Brookhaven’s Founder, Jacqueline Dawes, has predicated its gender-specific treatment on “healing emotional breakage” for women.  In this way, she has established a sanctuary and a place where women can feel safe, secure and cared for by a staff of highly trained professionals.
