Pompano Beach, FL (PRBuzz.com) February 16, 2012 -- Ramar Foods, makers of healthy and all-natural Filipino food, recently completed their shoot for O2 Media's hit morning TV show "The Balancing Act." The segment, which features Susie Quesada, Vice President of Ramar Foods, and her brother PJ Quesada, Marketing Director, will air as part of the show's 'My Cuisine' series in March on Lifetime Television.
Filipino food has long been associated with high fat and carbs, often preventing many health-conscious people from giving it a try. However, the people at Ramar foods are working to rethink the way that non-Filipinos tend to view this new type of cuisine. In the upcoming segment, they'll be showcasing the variety of Filipino foods developed in a healthier manner but served in a traditional style.
"Partnering with The Balancing Act is an exciting opportunity to educate viewers about Filipino culture by celebrating its Cuisine, while at the same time offering insight into how Filipinos have become ingrained into modern American society," says Quesada.
Many people are apprehensive about trying different foods, but the Spanish and Chinese influences in Filipino cuisine as well as the healthier options from Ramar make it much more accessible to a wide variety of people!

Pompano Beach, FL (PRBuzz.com) February 16, 2012 -- Nordyne, energy efficient A/C producers, recently completed their shoot for O2 Media's popular DIY television show "Designing Spaces." The segment will feature an expert from Nordyne and will air in May on Lifetime Television. Viewers will have a chance to learn about the importance of updating their outdated home heating and cooling systems.
The iQ Drive central heating and cooling systems can save a homeowner hundreds of dollars per year in energy costs. They are up to 88% more efficient than a standard central air conditioner or heat pump - and up to 200% more efficient than one from 10 years ago. They can achieve this ultra-high efficiency because of a different compressor and control board technology. It's called inverter rotary, and it's also incredibly quiet. The units operate as low as 59 decibels.
"Options exist today in home heating and cooling that can save more money and improve home comfort. If you haven't shopped for a new central system in the past 5 years, you'd be surprised at how much a new one can improve your home. The iQ Drive air conditioners and heat pumps will dramatically lower your energy bills while also providing a better mix of air and very quiet operation."
During the segment, viewers will have their questions about A/C and energy efficiency answered. They'lltake a look at some new technology that will dramatically lower energy bills while also providing a better air mix, as well as receive tips on finding a good contractor to install the new system.
"Working with Nordyne to develop a segment on 'Designing Spaces' was a pleasure," says Lysa Liemer, "Designing Spaces" Executive VP of Programming and Chief Operating Officer. "Their product has real value to our viewers, and gives them ideas and solutions to their everyday challenges."

(PRBuzz.com) February 16, 2012 -- Some expected the move, while others are against it. It seems Canadian banks are tightening lending standards in a move to avoid a U.S.-style housing correction, but a local builder, Bright Coast Homes Ltd., is confident Vancouver's robust housing market isn't expected to face a severe price correction. "I think the tightening of some of the lending standards is favourable in our current housing market," said Ken Gee, project director of Bright Coast Homes Ltd. of Vancouver. http://www.brightcoasthomes.com "Home buyers can be confident that banks are screening new borrowers for their ability to carry the mortgage." Canada's banks are in talks with the federal government about ways to curb mortgage lending in response to a "genuine concern" about the country's housing boom and rising consumer debt levels, said TD Bank chief executive officer Edmund Clark. "Household debt numbers are coming up to U.S. levels, so that is causing us a concern," said Clark. The banks have responded by restricting some lending and raising prices on higher-risk borrowers. "I truly believe home buyers and investors should be taking advantage of the historically low interest rates right now," Mr. Gee commented. TD Bank joined Royal Bank of Canada this week in ending a promotional 2.99 per cent four-year mortgage rate, three weeks before it was set to expire. Although the Vancouver housing market may be out of equilibrium, a significant correction is not expected, said Tsur Somerville, director at the University of B.C. Centre for Urban Economics and Real Estate at the Sauder School of Business. "I think there's some concern that prices don't get so far out of whack that there's a substantial correction," Somerville said. "All you have to do is look around and you'll see that if [a substantial correction] does happen, that would be a real big problem. So let's not let the housing market be driven by a wave of cheap and easy-to-access money." The Bank of Canada is trying to reduce the exposure to mortgage debt and put the brakes on the housing market without using "really, really big hammers," like raising interest rates, Somerville said. "The government has already taken steps to control mortgage lending through its regulations and I think there's a wariness about tightening those too much, so they're encouraging the banks to look at their mortgage book more closely." In a recent Reuter's article, it was reported there is an expectation that mortgage rates will stay low is taking the sizzle out of Vancouver prices.
At the same time, Chinese investors, who have long helped to underpin the city's red-hot market, are holding back because property market curbs back home means they have less cash available. But with immigrants still streaming in from China and elsewhere, and the city frequently rated one of the most livable on the planet, most experts see prices fizzling rather than imploding with a bang.
Vancouver price rises peaked at a stunning 19.8 per cent in 2006, dipped in 2009, and came roaring back with double-digit growth in both 2010 and 2011. A house bought for $500,000 in 2001 would have fetched about $1.2 million a decade later, based on average price changes.

(954) 691-1102 Pompano Beach, FL - February 15, 2012 (PRBuzz.com) February 16, 2012 -- The United States Environmental Protection Agency recently completed their shoot for O2 Media's popular DIY television show, "Designing Spaces." The segment, which features EPA energy expert, Denise Durrett, will air in May on Lifetime Television. Durrett educates viewers about the best methods of increasing energy efficiency and reducing cost on electric bills.
Energy Star is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's trusted mark of superior energy efficiency on appliances and products for the home and workplace. It can also be found on new buildings and houses. The Energy Star label means the product is more energy efficient than a conventional one; it's cost effective; and it delivers the same or better performance with no sacrifice in the quality, style or features that today's consumers expect. In addition, Energy Star helps promotes energy-efficient behavior which helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect the climate. "Homes contribute nearly 17 percent of the nation's greenhouse gas emissions and most of the energy used in our homes comes from burning fossil fuels at power plants," says Durrett. "Using less energy at home helps you reduce your electric bill and greenhouse gas emissions because it involves burning less fossil fuel." During the segment, Durrett discusses how energy efficiency can make an important impact on the environment as well as the cost of energy bills. She reviews tips for reducing energy consumption through better awareness. The suggestions she gives will help viewers improve the functionality and energy efficiency of their current electrical appliances as well as educate them about the variety of Energy Star products available on the market. "Working with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to develop a segment on 'Designing Spaces' was a pleasure," says Lysa Liemer, Designing Spaces' Executive VP of Programming and Chief Operating Officer. "Energy Star products provide real value to our viewers, and give them the tools to reduce consumption while saving money."

On a recent 32GB flash drive order in February of 2012 eProvided.Com paid $22.99 per USB flash drive, this was not a bulk rate price, you can buy just one for $22.99 or less! The avg. consumer owns two or more flash drives, consequently the probability down the road of needing to recover flash drive files is enormous as these devices tend to fail for absolutely no reason. So back up your data to additional devices just in case. eProvided.Com flash drive data recovery company states the primary reasons USB drives fail is due to accidental damage. "Accidents happen, users break the ends off drives while inserted into their laptops, also plugging them in incorrectly causing power surge data loss." States Bruce Cullen founder of eProvided.Com. Recover flash drivefiles to save your family photos, don't lose the hoarding battle in case of system meltdown lol. There are many other ways to synch and save. An eProvided.Com recommended service "Always have your stuff when you need it, Dropbox, a 2GB account is free: http://db.tt/KUBTl3F", a safe and free method to promote data hoarding! In a recent story found online, an estimated 10,000 photos were taken during the American Civil War, yet during the Kate & William Royal Wedding 15 million images were produced. Individuals want to share their lives by saving all files on USB flash drives, back 'em up folks, before your summer vacation. Flash drive recovery problems can be evaded, be proactive, have more ways than one to save your treasured data.

Singapore (MMD Newswire) February 17, 2012 -- GRIEB & BENZINGER, Rolls-Royce Motorcars and Revolution Magazine presented the three heaviest platinum watches in the world valued at a combined US$ 1,500,000 / 1,200,000 euros
In an exclusive preview in Singapore, select guests from Rolls-Royce Motorcars and Revolution Magazine had the opportunity to marvel at two world firsts in the BLUE DANUBE (a unique skeletonized minute repeater split-seconds chronograph) and the BLUE WHIRLWIND (a unique tourbillon minute repeater)as well as the legendary BLUE SENSATION (the only split-seconds skeletonized regulator chronograph on the market) by GRIEB & BENZINGER.
Each of these unique watches is based on a rare Patek Philippe caliber, which has been fully disassembled, modified and recreated in the typical style of GRIEB & BENZINGER. More than twelve months of lavish restoration using classic horological crafts were invested in order to create these one-of-a-kind pieces in solid platinum cases with a combined total value of 1,200,000 euros / US$ 1,500,000.
Unforgettable highlights among these watches are the refined guilloché, hand-skeletonization and hand-engraving as well as the skeletonized Sterling silver dials with original Breguet frosted finish as only GRIEB & BENZINGER does. Once again the company proves that the complicated masterpieces of GRIEB & BENZINGER are just as much objets d'art as simple watches. Like the most desirable works of art, such as Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa or van Gogh's Sunflowers, the timepieces by GRIEB & BENZINGER Platinum are one-of-a-kind, which will increase their collector's value in the future.
The BLUE DANUBE is a unique skeletonized minute repeater split-seconds chronograph powered by a base movement that was made in about 1890 and fully restored. Keeping in mind that this movement is already about 120 years old, the detailed restoration of the more than 400 components of this movement required intense attention. The result, housed in a 43 mm-diameter solid platinum case, is doubtlessly a sensation and a tribute to historic watchmaking. It retails for about 350,000 euros or US$450,000.
The BLUE WHIRLWIND is a unique tourbillon minute repeater based on the legendary Patek Philippe Caliber R TO 27 PS. This very same movement recently caused a giant sensation as it sold within a one-of-a-kind Patek Philippe Tourbillon Minute Repeater in stainless steel, which was donated to the ONLY WATCH charity auction in Monaco 2011. The result was literally sensational: the hammer fell at 1.4 million Euros. This is a really breathtaking timepiece as it is theworld's first watch powered by a visible tourbillon movement by Patek Philippe. In addition, amysterious wheel visible on the back replaces the original gold drive wheel for the tourbillon. Who else would be brave enough to rework such a movement if not the folks at GRIEB & BENZINGER? With a value of 650,000 euros (about US$850,000) this was without any doubt a highlight for the watch connoisseurs present.
The third one-of-a-kind piece, BLUE SENSATION, is the only split-seconds skeletonized regulator chronograph on the market with a base caliber that was manufactured in 1890 and fully restored and technically modified. With a 49-millimeter diameter and a total weight of 230 grams, it is the giant among these ultra-luxurious watches - though the most affordable one with a value of 200,000 euros (US$ 260,000).
These astounding timepieces are once more confirmation of GRIEB & BENZINGER's detailed concept, which includes the masters' the outstanding abilities to create such astonishing watches and the world's heaviest platinum watches. In fact, this is not just restoration, it's art at its finest. And only for one lucky collector worldwide.

February 17, 2012 (MMD Newswire) -- An ever growing number of men are seeking out the option of having a woman lead them and their personal relationship. Many men and women have experienced disappointment and confusion with traditional male/female roles in relationships. They see the option of a Female Led Relationship (FLR) as a wonderful alternative to traditional "male led relationships" and the even more confusing "50-50 relationships." In an aboutFLR.com poll of over 8,700 people 97% of women answered positively to the question "I like the thought of leading a man?" and 99% of men answered positive to the question "I am willing to obey my woman?" This is a real shift from traditional relationships.
Part of this shift can be directly attributed to the changing roles of women in society, which is causing pressure on relationships. Men too are more likely to want women to contribute at a higher level in personal relationships because of the confusion from changing roles. Men and women are looking for new definitions to their interpersonal roles. Because so many men are women are meeting online, the internet allows them to express themselves in ways they would have shied away from in years past.
AboutFLR.com is addressing this growing niche relationship type, providing practical and usable knowledge to help couples become successful. For over a year, 81,000 Men and women have been building friendships and learning about FLR on our beta site. We are now ready to help women and men everywhere experience the benefits and romance of FLR in a safe, private and simple to use way. We are now open to the public.
AboutFLR.com announces an online environment rich in all things FLR including: friendships, dating, information, community building, articles, user posts, and courses for men to improve their skills focused on serving and supporting the women they love. Men and women participate anonymously until they are ready to reveal personal information. Joining is free, however we ask for an optional address verification (which is stored offline) for a nominal fee. To that end address verification through Amazon.com helps us show members as 'real and verified' giving our members confidence to communicate with other real people.
FLR is a newer alternative relationship type and as such is not for everyone. Anonymity is important to our users. No personal information is ever shared about those using the website unless they reveal it themselves. We store no personal or financial information online about our members to keep them safe and anonymous.
A quote from the website "Female Dominant Couples, what is that? Don't put to much into the usage of the word 'Dominant', it merely describes a relationship where the woman has greater responsibility and authority as a leader for the couple. People constantly say "a male dominated world" and no one thinks of men in leather corsets with whips. It is a double standard, and a dirty trick to have such double standards especially when they represent a system of control over all our lives beckoning us follow a traditional pattern of living."
