<p class="releaseDateline">Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 21, 2012 </p>
<p> Jim Ellis Chevrolet, one of 37 Chevrolet dealers from the Atlanta area that partnered with local youth soccer leagues for the 2011 season, raised nearly $  98345 in total donations from the dealership and private parties. In addition to monetary support, Jim Ellis Chevrolet provided the City of Chamblee with equipment donations, and an opportunity to raise and keep up to $  10,000 through a unique fundraiser, and participation in an instructional soccer clinic. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“Chevrolet has a long history with youth sports and we’re glad we were able to bring that commitment to our youth soccer leagues in Atlanta where our customers and their families live, work, and play,” said Mark Frost, General manager for Jim Ellis Chevrolet. “The Jim Ellis Automotive Group has been a part of this community for over 40 years and enjoy supporting our youth sports teams.”      </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The City of Chamblee previously had the opportunity to raise as much as $  10,000 through a fundraising opportunity. One lucky winner in each region won his or her choice of a 2012 Chevy Cruze or Equinox. Another lucky winner in the Atlanta-area received a home entertainment package. One-hundred percent of the proceeds of the fundraiser went directly to the league. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“We are delighted to be involved with youth soccer,” said Frost, of Jim Ellis Chevrolet. “Sponsoring the City of Chamblee gave us the opportunity to illustrate our commitment to the youth and families in Atlanta and we’re glad to have achieved such positive outcome for the community.” </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>In 2011, more than 700 Chevrolet dealers participated in Chevy Youth Soccer across the USA.  </p>

<p>&#13;</p>
<p class="releaseDateline">Washington, DC (PRWEB) October 17, 2011 </p>
<p> RISE (Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment)®, today announced that a recent survey conducted by the trade association shows that nearly 70 percent of homeowners state that zero is the acceptable number of pests allowed inside their home before they take action to get rid of them.  The fall season offers the most advantageous time of the year to protect homes, lawns and communities against unwelcomed pests and disease, such as being able to identify cool-air leaks where holes or cracks might invite critters to come inside. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Utilizing indoor and outdoor integrated pest management approaches allows homeowners to have more control in preventing infestation, structural damage, and disease from negatively affecting their homes. To help homeowners pest-proof their homes this fall, RISE is offering an easy-to-implement checklist with a memorable acronym that can be found at http://www.debugthemyths.com/inspectandprotect.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>IN    vestigate. Become a pest detective and investigate your home and yard for clues that pests may be present. You never know where they may be lurking.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>S    tudy. Take a deeper look into your home and study the situation, learn more about the pests causing problems and the damage they can bring with them.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>P    repare. In this step, plan how to most effectively solve your problem. Proper planning includes understanding the safe and correct way to execute any pest control approach. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>E    liminate. Put your plan into action. This step includes eliminating the pests’ entry way into your home and eliminating problems that already exist. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>C    lean. Once you’ve eliminated welcoming entries for pests, maintaining a clean home and lawn is essential for discouraging pests from calling your home theirs.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>T    reat. Proactive and preventative treatment is key when talking about pests. Treating for problems at the first sign or before they appear will keep your home pest-free.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“We’ve seen how the extreme summer heat had pests looking for water in many unexpected places, and though the weather is beginning to cool, it’s no time for homeowners to be idle in protecting their homes,” said Gail Getty, research entomologist at the University of California at Berkeley and industry liaison. “The winter cold will send pests indoors looking for food and warmth. It’s important for homeowners to consider the significant damage that can result from an untreated pest infestation, and this week lends the perfect time for them to stop and do their home-work.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>With much of the U.S. population spending more time indoors during the fall and winter seasons, the chances increase for diseases to be spread if pests are left mismanaged. Uncontrolled pest populations, especially rats, cockroaches, bed bugs, spiders, and dust mites, can negatively affect the health of a family.  Cockroaches, the most frustrating pest among homeowners who participated in the recent RISE study, transmit Salmonella while also contributing to the development of allergies and asthma, particularly in children.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Outdoor spaces are not exempt to proactive pest management and routine maintenance to keep harmful plants and pests away.  Before winter weather hits, help your lawn store up for the winter by fertilizing and adding grass seed before heavy rainfall saturates the ground or frost creates a barrier. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“Find a convenient time to attend to the outside of your home when you get home from work or while you’re letting the dog outside. It’s important to conduct routine grooming to deter harmful plants like poison ivy, oak, or sumac away from where your family lives and plays,” said Getty.  “Keeping your lawn healthy during the winter can also help reduce cost when summer comes back around.”</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>About RISE&#13;<br />

<p>&#13;<br />
                  &#13;</p>
<p class="releaseDateline">San Jose, CA (PRWEB) February 11, 2012 </p>
<p> Elemental Wellness Center, a San Jose medical cannabis dispensary, continues to host the ever-popular Crop Circle Grow Club every Sunday at 3pm. Since its inception over a year ago, the free weekly workshop has sprouted into an exciting think tank, lead by expert cultivator Josh Jones, who has over 10 years of experience as a consultant, teaching patients everything they need to know to grow their own medicine.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The 2012 growing season is fast approaching, and for the month of February, Elemental Wellness will be conducting a special series focused on getting a garden started right. Whether they’re looking to build on a budget or aiming for an advanced set up, Josh will help growers meet their gardening goals. The first week launches with How to Build a Greenhouse, followed by Crop Shop, and then Tools &amp; Equipment. Josh will cover such topics as temperature and humidity controls, high pressure sodium (HPS) vs. metal halide (MH) lighting, automatic timers, and how to choose the right nutrients.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“This is an exciting time, when we get ready for our outdoor season. Some growers have already started with their gardens. So let&#8217;s get fully prepared and join them,” invites Josh. &#8220;You can make a greenhouse out of practically anything!&#8221;   </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The February 12th workshop, Crop Shop, will help growers decide what size and style grow room is right for them. It will address such questions as how much to spend and how much time it will take to maintain grow rooms of various sizes. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“One of our members built a small 4X4, 600 watt room. I helped him choose the right nutrients, and he got 6X the amount he spent on setup… all top shelf medicine, from clones he got at Elemental Wellness. It’s amazing, and a testament to what we are trying to do here!”   </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The February 19th Crop Circle will focus on Tools and Equipment. Josh will help growers make smart choices when taking those critical first steps at the hydro store. Participants will learn what they specifically need for their setup to avoid making multiple shopping trips around town. Josh will invite the group to compare and contrast brands and share where to get the best deals. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“From grow media (such as soil, coco, and hydro) to nutrient selection to getting the right light, there are a lot of puzzle pieces to put together, but we help take the guesswork out of it.” says Josh</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>For growers interested in growing green, going green, and saving green all at the same time, there will also be a special guest lecturer who will teach the secrets to stretching a dollar through green building practices. Certified by the National Association of Home Builders, Crop Circle&#8217;s guest consultant will discuss straw bale construction, rainwater collection, environmental controls, proper ventilation and air tight sealing, all with money saving in mind.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The final session on February 26th will be a review of all the previous topics in the series, as well as a forum for growers to help each other troubleshoot any challenges they might be experiencing with their garden. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and bring in pictures to share with the group. At the end, participants will leave feeling more confident and prepared for a bountiful grow season!  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Member participation in the cultivation process is essential to Elemental Wellness, which operates on a “closed loop” business model. Members of the collective are encouraged to grow their own medicine and provide any surplus back to the collective so that other members, who are unable to grow, have access to the medicine they need.  </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Crop Circle classes are open to medical cannabis patients with all levels of growing experience, from complete novices to experts. Josh provides a formal lesson plan with handouts and demonstrations to give the session cohesion and structure, while providing an open forum for discussion, to maintain an interesting and lively club dynamic.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>

<p style="text-align: center; ; overflow: hidden; color: #999999;">Aggressive Aromatherapy Anti-bad mood spray.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
                  &#13;</p>
<p class="releaseDateline">Winchester, VA (PRWEB) February 01, 2012 </p>
<p> In response to customer feedback, HR Products announces new label design for the company&#8217;s series of anti- bad mood sprays. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Aggressive™ anti-bad-mood spray was featured on Refinery29.com&#8217;s December 2011 list of &#8220;Hot New Products.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;The response that followed that piece on Refinery29.com was amazing, especially since I had  launched the products just a month before.&#8221; says Heidi Rettig, owner of the boutique aromatherapy company. Sales have been brisk since the feature. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;I knew the anti-bad-mood sprays were special, but it was really great to connect with customers and hear why they were purchasing their bottle of Apathy™ or The Antidote for Ego™.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Customer feedback has shaped a redesign of the products&#8217; labels. Rettig says, &#8220;Customers wanted to be able to re-read the hilarious descriptions from our website. The next generation of labels preserves the simple, clean design but also includes the funny bits.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Wholesalers wanted more information about what each spray smells like, so an electronic look book (coming soon) will feature graphics that illustrate the scent experience for wholesale clients. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve added some information on each product page that gives you an idea of what to expect. When I describe Passive™, for example, I ask people to imagine sticking their head into a giant bag of marshmallows. Apathy™ smells like fresh-peeled grapefruit.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Even though the names are kind of funny, the aromatherapy oils are custom blended to produce a positive emotional response. The smell is subtle enough for use in the office, restroom, car, or at home. The natural citrus freshens the air without phthalates or other dangerous ingredients. The products are 100 percent Vegan, minimally packaged, and the essential oils are organically sourced, whenever possible. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>How does Rettig use Aggressive™ aromatherapy mood spray?</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, this morning when I arrived at my office, one of the building&#8217;s tenants had parked in the driveway entrance to the parking lot. No one could get in or out of the office garage for 45 minutes. So, sniffing an all-natural herbal room spray specially blended to calm me down? It&#8217;s so much more acceptable than letting the air out of some guy&#8217;s tires, am I right?&#8221;</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">Sidney, Neb. (PRWEB) January 27, 2012 </p>
<p> Cabela’s, the World’s Foremost Outfitter of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear, will officially open its Wichita, Kan., store Wednesday, March 14. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for 10:45 a.m., with doors opening for business at 11 a.m. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Opening day will be part of a weekend-long celebration featuring outdoor celebrities, special guests, giveaways and more. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>“We are eager to give our loyal customers in Wichita and the surrounding area a remarkable retail experience,” said Cabela’s Chief Executive Officer Tommy Millner. “The Sunflower State is home to many people who share our passion for the outdoors, and who show an unwavering dedication to our brand.” </p>

<p>The Wichita location is the first of five stores Cabela’s plans to open in 2012, joining Tulalip, Wash.; Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada; Rogers, Ark.; and Charleston, W.Va.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The store is located in the Regency Lakes Shopping Center at 21st Street and Greenwich Road, and is Cabela’s second retail store in Kansas, joining the Kansas City location. It will feature thousands of products, including hunting, fishing, camping and other outdoor gear, as well as clothing, gifts and furnishings.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The building’s exterior will reflect Cabela’s traditional store model with log construction, stonework, wood siding and metal roofing. A large glass storefront will allow customers to view much of the store’s interior as they approach the building. The inside will highlight the company’s next-generation layout, designed to immerse customers in the outdoor experience. It will feature approximately 250 full-body animal mounts, including polar, grizzly and black bears, Cape buffalo, mountain lion, deer and elk. A 4,000-gallon aquarium featuring fish native to the area will be located at the base of a mountain replica. There also will be a Gun Library, offering a wide range of firearms, as well as a Bargain Cave, where shoppers will find Cabela’s biggest discounts.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Regency Lakes Shopping Center also includes Super Target, World Market, Hampton Inn &amp; Suites and other retailers. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Store hours are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday.</p>

<p style="text-align: center; ; overflow: hidden; color: #999999;">Kami</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
                  &#13;</p>
<p class="releaseDateline">Sunnyvale, CA (PRWEB) January 23, 2012 </p>
<p> IPEVO, Inc., a designer and maker of technology products for education and business, has announced the release of Kami Origami Folio Case. Designed for Apple&#8217;s iPad 2, Kami is a slim case whose cover can be folded to convert the case into a stand. Kami is now available for purchase through IPEVO&#8217;s online store (http://www.ipevo.com).</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Taking inspiration from origami, the traditional Japanese art of paper folding, Kami&#8217;s cover features creases which can be pinched and folded inward by the user. The resultant triangular support can then be used to prop up the iPad 2 for either a 20° or a 70° viewing angle, depending on orientation. The folding action requires no fasteners, Velcro, or similar, and can be accomplished in a few seconds.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>When unfolded, Kami&#8217;s cover along with the case serve to protect iPad 2 from everyday wear and tear and superficial damage. The light gray case is made from microfiber, which is sturdy yet soft to the touch. This microfiber, an alternative to the leather common with many iPad cases, is moisture- and stain-resistant, including resistance to fingertip acid. The material may be spot-cleaned.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>At 4 millimeters thick, Kami has been characterized as &#8220;ultra-slim&#8221; and is among the slimmest and lightest iPad 2 cases on the market. The iPad 2 fits snugly into Kami, and cutouts keep the controls, camera lens, charging port and speakers exposed, such that the user does not need to remove the iPad 2 from Kami.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Special magnets in the cover of Kami cause the iPad 2 to enter Sleep Mode when the case is closed, resulting in more efficient power management and a longer average per-charge device life.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;Kami is our answer to customer demand for a lighter, less bulky case,&#8221; said Royce Hong, CEO and big head of design of IPEVO. &#8220;iPad underwent a slimming down from the first to second generation, and we approached Kami with the same mentality. Kami also addresses a &#8216;leather fatigue&#8217; among some iPad users who are tired of leather cases. Microfiber is an attractive alternative, and the fact that the case doubles as a stand through its unique origami design adds practical utility, which is unusual for such a slim case.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Kami Origami Folio Stand is now available exclusively through IPEVO&#8217;s online store at http://www.ipevo.com. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>

<p class="releaseDateline">Cooperstown, NY (PRWEB) January 21, 2012 </p>
<p> August Lodge and Spa owner Steve Stegman announced the extensive refurbishing of his Cooperstown hotel.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>&#8220;Our goal is to maintain the lodge to a T,&#8221; Stegman said.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Although the establishment is only a few years old, he intends to keep everything as  new as possible. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>To that effect:&#13;<br />
</p>
<p>  Recently the outside was completely refinished. The timber frame of Eastern White Pine and the siding of bevelled cedar was stripped down to the bare wood. &#13;<br />
  Just this summer, in an effort to constantly improve the landscape, two new gardens were added &#8211; both flower and vegetable gardens.&#13;<br />
  This month the lobby and the front desk area were refurbished. The front desk sports hand-carved wood, as does much of the August Lodge and Spa&#8217;s adornments. &#13;<br />
  Presently, the guest rooms are being worked on. The furniture is being cleaned and refinished, the carpets are being double-cleaned, and each room is being touched up.
<p>&#8220;We love it when guests say, &#8216;We came here four years ago when it was brand new, and now we&#8217;re here four years later and it looks just as new now as it did then,&#8217;&#8221; Stegman observed.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The spa area is also being spruced up. The entire lodge is expected to be ready well before the baseball-tourism begins in Cooperstown this year. </p>
