URALCHEM paid more than 232 Million Roubles for Social Projects in 2012

In 2012, the URALCHEM group increased funding for social and charitable projects to 232.3 million roubles, compared to more than 90 million roubles in 2011.

Moscow, Russia (April 29, 2013) -- In 2012, the URALCHEM group increased funding for social and charitable projects to 232.3 million roubles, compared to more than 90 million roubles in 2011.

"We see the support of social and charitable programmes as one of the most important parts of corporate ethics. Record production levels and the financial results achieved by the company in 2012 have allowed us to increase funding for social programmes by almost 2.5 times compared with 2011," the Chairman of the Board of Directors of URALCHEM, Dmitry Mazepin, commented.

The main focus of URALCHEM's charitable activity is the support of children's and youth sports. The Group's enterprises in 2012 contributed more than 77.1 million roubles for this purpose. In addition, assistance is provided to child and youth programmes aimed at improving health, education and recreation. Significant donations are also made to the support of veterans and pensioners. Traditionally, URALCHEM assists in organizing various sports and cultural events in the cities where the company's facilities are located.

The company's largest plant in Kirovo-Chepetsk became the largest contributor, paying 97.9 million roubles in donations and sponsorships. A significant amount of these funds was provided for an unprecedented initiative to support 70 large low-income families from the Kirov Region; all these families received Lada Granta cars from URALCHEM.

The Azot Branch and Minudobrenia, both located in the Perm Region, allocated 45.8 million roubles for charitable projects. The Voskresensk Mineral Fertilizers plant in the Moscow Region spent 27.7 million roubles on sponsorship and charity. An addition to the generous contributions made by the separate enterprises, nearly 61 million roubles was paid directly by the URALCHEM company itself for good causes.

Moscow, Russia (April 29, 2013) -- One of the lecture halls at the Chemistry Department of Moscow State University has been completely renovated and re-equipped using funding provided by URALCHEM.

Repair work began in October 2012 and is now completed. Today, the renovated hall is a comfortable auditorium, seating 35 students and containing the latest laboratory equipment, computers, office and video conferencing facilities.

Right Now Wellness Presents the Secret to a Fulfilled Life

Right Now Wellness works with clients to ensure they find what they are looking for in life, no matter what that is. Each person is an individual with unique needs and personal goals. Working together, we can define those goals and work to make them happen," said Amanda Wright of Right Now Wellness.

Richmond, VA (April 27, 2013) -- Holistic therapy, the art and science of healing which addresses the mind, body and spirit of the person, offers many benefits. Therapy of this type honors the lifestyle, observations, habits and beliefs of the person being treated, and treatment methods of less harm are preferred over riskier ones. "Respect for the individual remains the top priority throughout treatment to help healing on all levels," Amanda Wright of Right Now Wellness declares.

Right Now Wellness (http://www.rightnowwellness.com) offers healing art massage therapy. This technique began more than 3,000 years ago with the ancient Egyptians, Persians and Hindus using it for a wide range of ailments. Conditions from arthritis to immune suppression benefit from massage. "Right Now Wellness offers deep tissue massage, acupressure, Thai massage, couples massage and more to benefit a wide range of conditions," Ms. Wright explains. "The goal is to find the right massage modality for what the client is experiencing."

Hypnosis focuses a person's awareness to allow the conscious mind and the subconscious to believe the same message. The client feels calm and relaxed while under hypnosis which allows him or her to concentrate intensely while blocking out distractions. "Hypnosis has been successfully used to help patients break unwanted habits, reduce stress or cope better with medical conditions. The effects of this treatment last for an extended period of time and the client's overall quality of life improves," Ms. Wright goes on to say.

Couples struggle at times as every relationship goes through ups and downs. Traditional marriage counseling and s*x therapy revolve around verbal communication and work at home assignments. "With couples therapy, the goal transitions to exploring the relationship on a deeper level, one that includes real time interactions and non-verbal communication. "Partners learn how to feel fulfilled, on an emotional and a sexual level," Ms. Wright states.

Many find themselves struggling to find fulfillment in life as they don't have the life they truly envision. They continue doing the same things while expecting to see different results. "When this is the case, the person suffers in every area of life. Right Now Wellness works with clients to ensure they find what they are looking for in life, no matter what that is. Each person is an individual with unique needs and personal goals. Working together, we can define those goals and work to make them happen," Ms. Wright proclaims.

About Right Now Wellness:
Right Now Wellness works to help clients break patterns that aren't helping them move forward and let go of things which are keeping them stuck in the past. Ms. Wright helps clients find the clarity they need to find their next step and uses a variety of healing modalities to help clients get to where they want to be now. Ms. Wright is a certified hypnotherapist, an NLP/life coach, certified intimacy coach and educator and certified massage therapist. She is also a Reiki master, an ordained minister/spiritual counselor, mediation guide and has experience with relationship counseling.

New Site Launch Supports Full time Service for Newark Area HVAC Contractor

The Fixer HVAC, a proud member of the Delaware Small Business Chamber, is excited to be a part of HVACNewarkDE.com, bringing with the company a level of quality and honesty, and a standard of work ethic like no other.

Newark, DE (April 27, 2013) -- There are special considerations and nuances involved in acquiring the proper permits for installation or repair of heating and air conditioning systems in the Newark, DE area. Because of this HVACNewarkDE.com has brought in "The Fixer Heating and Air" to service the HVAC needs of the residents of Newark. The Fixer Heating and Air maintains the proper level of insurance, qualifications and licensing to allow them to pull the proper permits to take care of your HVAC needs.

As one of the premier heating and air conditioning service companies in New Castle County several years running, The Fixer HVAC, a proud member of the Delaware Small Business Chamber, is excited to be a part of http://www.HVACNewarkDE.com, bringing with the company a level of quality and honesty, and a standard of work ethic like no other. The Fixer Heating and Air prides itself on being the working man's HVAC company, providing reasonable cost and dependable service which allows each and every family to be comfortable in their home. See this page for more info on cutting costs.

While simple repairs or maintenance, furnace cleanings, or air conditioner services, for instance, don't often require permits, it is still very important to hire the right heating and air company to service your HVAC needs. Proper licensing and insurance is a must when choosing the right company to keep your system up to code. HVACNewarkDE.com knows that and has brought the "right" company on board to make the choice easier; The Fixer Heating and Air.

"The Newark area is tough with the permits and requirements which really drives up the costs for any contractor looking to service residents in that area," states owner, Mr. Allen. "We strive to keep overhead very low so that we can continue to help people at affordable rates to stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer."

Heating and air conditioning is not the only consideration when it comes to the air quality of your home. Often the winter months can bring about very dry conditions, chapped lips, painful sinuses, and the like. The Fixer HVAC can install a complete house humidifier to take the edge off those chilly mornings. Dust in the venting can also be an inconvenience and a trigger for allergy sufferers. The Fixer Heating and Air not only cleans the system but the ducts also, to keep you home as pleasant and comfortable as possible.

Vegas Versus Victoria Falls: Which Vacation Is The Better Value?

Study compares costs of 10 global adventure trips with rates at 3-4 star hotels.

(For Immediate Release) April 26, 2013 -- Today's travelers seek memorable experiences when they vacation. A recent cost comparison study shows that global adventures can be more affordable than many three and four-star hotel stays. The research by AdventureLink.com suggests that cost-conscious consumers may wish to consider adventure travel as an alternative to traditional "been-there done-that" hotel stays.

Despite ongoing worries about the economy, the adventure travel industry is growing at 17 percent per year, according to the Adventure Travel Trade Association. The growth is being fueled by aging baby boomers seeking more value from their vacation travel experiences. "Many travelers don't realize that some of the most sought-after adventure trips in the world cost less per day than staying in three and four-star hotels in major cities," says Kelly Tompkins, Founder & CEO of AdventureLink Travel Inc.

In the study, AdventureLink.com compared 10 popular trips-such as African safaris, climbing Machu Picchu, and walking tours of Europe-to the cost of staying at three and four-star hotels across major destinations.

As with hotel stays, adventure tours typically do not include airfare. But adventure vacations do often include the cost of lodging, meals and in many cases a guide and local transportation.

"Everybody is value-conscious. So when I share with friends the adventures they can have for as little as $59 dollars a day, they often can't believe it," notes adventure travel pioneer Richard Bangs, an AdventureLink board member. Bangs points out that AdventureLink.com alone offers over 350 trips that cost less than $59 per day, roughly the cost of a night at a Motel 6.

"Most people are unaware that meaningful, affordable adventure travel options exist. That's why we created AdventureLink.com," Tompkins adds.

As Time Goes By a Novel by Dr. Benedict A. Baglio Released Worldwide In eBook Form

Baglio releases his fifth book, a historically accurate fiction book -- As Time Goes By.

Patchogue, NY (April 25, 2013) -- Initially stunned and confused by his meeting with his World War II hero John Waldron, modern day Navy pilot Steven Amato is left endorsed and enriched by the experience.

As Time Goes By written by Dr. Benedict Baglio (http://www.benbaglio.com) encourages the imagination to reconsider the reality that described America during the dark days of World War II. It asks the reader to define selflessness and service in terms that were applicable then, and now. It begs the questions -- What has changed? What has remained constant? Are we as good as the people of that generation, or are we better because of them? Dr. Benedict Baglio did exhaustive research while writing As Time Goes By making the characters and the dilemmas that are cast upon them rich and full of life, then and now.

As Time Goes By is a story of heroes, both past and present. They are connected by their love of the United States Navy and the country it protects and defends. John C. Waldron lost his life in a valiant but doomed attack on the Japanese fleet at Midway. So unselfishly brave were his actions that Winston Churchill wept upon hearing his story and the torpedo squadron of aircraft he led. So gallant were their deeds that the commanding Admiral of the Japanese Fleet Chuichi Nagumo prayed for their souls as Waldron and his command fell in fire and blood to the full might of the his Imperial Fleet.

Steven Amato is a modern day Navy pilot who grew up with Waldron's legend practically embedded in his DNA. Amato has a severe crisis of faith when he is ordered to avoid engagement when Libyan aircraft butcher a dear friend as they fly combat air patrol over the Mediterranean Sea in the early 1980s. Amato is about to quit the Navy, until a Hamilton Chronometer, found tucked under the front seat of a 1939 Ford Convertible, intervenes. He bought the Ford from the failing father of one of the men Waldron led to his death at Midway. The watch provides an unexplained portal for Amato to examine Waldron's character, leadership and the facts surrounding his demise, up close and personal.

"This novel will be enjoyed by the serious World War II historian, as well as those who consider the what-if's of history as nutritional food for thought. If you fancy teleology in your reading, this might well be a book that should sit on your shelf or in your electronic reader," says author Ben Baglio.

As Time Goes By is historically accurate. Baglio performed painstaking research to detail the land as it was then and is now. He envelopes the reader with his love of the historical period that sets the stage for the book. His characters are animated by rich descriptions of place and time in the past and present. Readers have enjoyed the plot twists and turns that Baglio uses to spin his tale.

As Time Goes By in ebook form ISBN 9781622870431, was published by First Edition Design Publishing. It is available on-line wherever ebooks are sold.

Yale Pest Elimination Warns of Rising Bed Bug Infestions

"Bed bug infestations need to be treated immediately as the bugs bite and may cause allergic reactions," according to Jim Miller of Yale Termite and Pest Elimination (YalePest.com).

Ansonia, CT (April 25, 2013) -- According to a survey conducted by the NPMA and the University of Kentucky, 95 percent of professional pest management companies in the United States have dealt with an infestation of bed bugs in the last twelve months. Before 2000, only 25 percent reported one or more encounters with these creatures. "Bed bug infestations need to be treated immediately as the bugs bite and may cause allergic reactions," according to Jim Miller of Yale Termite and Pest Elimination (http://www.yalepest.com).

Home owners often attempt to treat this problem on their own with very little success. According to those surveyed, bed bugs continue to be the hardest pest to treat. An overwhelming 76 percent of respondents stated bed bugs are harder to treat than ants, termites and cockroaches. "Property owners need to seek the services of a professional pest company (http://www.yalepest.com/extermination-services/bed-bugs/bed-bug-exterminator) to get rid of the bugs as a bed bug may lay more than 500 eggs in their lifetime," Mr. Miller continues.

Bed bugs don't need food to survive either as a bed bug can go months without a meal. The hatchlings are minuscule and easily pass through stitch-holes in mattresses and other tiny openings. They survive in a wide range of temperatures and ingest up to seven times their body weight in blood. "Any property owner who suspects he or she has bed bugs needs to call in a professional exterminator (http://www.yalepest.com/extermination-services) right away," Mr. Miller declares.

Bed bugs don't transmit disease, yet can lead to an allergic reaction. They take up residence in clean and unclean homes and buildings although 37 percent do believe they are attracted to those homes and offices which are dirty. Household income doesn't play a role in where bed bugs live either.

"Every home and office is susceptible to bed bugs as they may be picked up in a wide variety of locations. Bed bugs catch a ride on people and their belongings, making it possible to pick the bugs up in hotels, college dorms, public transportation, movie theaters and laundry facilities. Although infestations are more common in suburban and urban areas than in rural ones, everyone needs to be aware of bed bugs and what to look for," Mr. Miller states.

About Yale Pest Elimination:

Established in 1983, Yale Termite and Pest Elimination Corp remains an industry leader. The family owned and operated company makes use of integrated pest management practices in all that they do. They provide fast and effective pest control solutions for both residential and commercial clients and have been trusted by thousands over the years. The typical client has been with the company for more than five years and all pest control technicians maintain state licensing. The National Pest Management Association recognized Yale Termite and Pest Elimination Corp. for meeting published standards of a QualityPro company.

Moving Right Along Presents Moving Solutions for Business and Residential Moves Alike

"When one goes to change his or her residence, the right moving company helps to make the transition smooth in every way," Jim Rueda of Moving Right Along (MovingRightAlong.com) states.

Ozone Park, NY (April 25, 2012) -- According to the 2007 American Community Survey (ACS), the average American moves 11.7 times in his or her lifetime. The satisfaction of a move depends in great part on the moving company selected. "When one goes to change his or her residence, the right moving company helps to make the transition smooth in every way," Jim Rueda of Moving Right Along (http://www.movingrightalong.com) states.

Whether one is moving to a new residence or new commercial location, he or she needs to feel comfortable with the moving company selected as the movers are handling his or her possessions. "Each possession in a home or office is chosen with care by the owner. Movers need to remember this at all times and treat each item as if it were their own. Many moving companies seem to forget this," Mr. Rueda continues.

Items such as fine art and antiques or musical instruments such as a piano require special treatment. Special equipment may be needed to transport these items safely or special packing materials must be used. "Moving Right Along (http://www.movingrightalong.com/moving.html) understands this and equips each truck with a wide range of packing supplies and special equipment to properly care for these items," Mr. Rueda goes on to say.

No two businesses are alike and therefore no two commercial moves are identical either. Some companies find themselves in need of records storage while others wish to have warehousing and distribution help. When a company chooses to relocate, Moving Right Along (http://www.movingrightalong.com/commercial.html) sends in a project manager to assess the situation and map out a plan for the move. "Having this service reduces the amount of downtime a company experiences during a move. With competition fierce in many industries, customers appreciate this as it ensures they don't fall back in terms of their competition during a move," Mr. Rueda explains.

Moving Right Along offers many other services consumers may find they need when switching residences or commercial locations. From junk removal and home cleaning services to fumigation and storage, Moving Right Along strives to meet the needs of customers in every area. "The fewer companies involved in a move, the easier the entire process becomes which is why many in New York look no further than Moving Right Along," Mr. Rueda stresses.

About Moving Right Along:

Moving Right Along began as a part time venture in 1976 when it was known as Jim's Moving Company. In 1981, Jim completed his Bachelor of Business Administration Degree in Marketing at Baruch University and he opted to change the name to Moving Right Along Service, Inc. Although the name changed, the company's commitment to reliable and friendly service at a great low price remained. During the 1980s, the company expanded from a one truck operation to an eight truck organization. In 1988, Jim chose to purchase a Packaging Plus franchise which led to him branching out in many other areas. Services offered now include crating, interstate and international moving and containerized storage. Over the years, Jim has personally overseen all company operations and works to ensure a client's transition to a new home or office is smooth thanks to quick and quality service.
