San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/01/2016 -- Randi Glazer releases her new book '12 Strategies for Surviving a Career in the Insurance Industry' on Amazon. The book draws on the author's many years of experience as an industry insider to provide readers with valuable advice and practical skills for succeeding in the complicated world of insurance. Covering everything from how to identify the ideal organization to work for to the inherent difficulty of working alongside aggressive agents and brokers, Glazer provides a number of personal and professional anecdotes that help illustrate how she was able to achieve such a great deal of success in a constantly changing industry.

As a professional who deeply understands the benefit of having a knowledgeable mentor willing to offer sage advice to those new to the field, Glazer offers her own mentorship to readers through the pages of her book. Noting how the field has changed over the years and that companies rarely offer the kind of training and mentoring she benefited from when she first began her career, Glazer offers advice on how newcomers to the industry can engage in self-directed training and find experienced professionals to offer the kind of guidance and advice she once received from her own professional mentors.

Glazer begins by discussing some of the more commonly overlooked yet widely acknowledged issues associated with office life in any industry, tackling subjects that include each of the following:

- Dealing with the conflicts created by co-workers
- Working under an inefficient organizational structure
- Avoiding office politics
- Understanding the importance of being perceptive in office culture

In addition to these common issues encountered as a part of daily office life, Glazer also delves deeply into some of the more practical concerns associated with the insurance industry in particular. Devoting a chapter to a discussion of how to find the right professional niche, Glazer offers insight into how she was able to find a field that wound up bringing her a great deal of personal and professional life satisfaction. Sharing stories of how her career provided countless opportunities for traveling abroad, Glazer is the perfect example of a professional who understands that there are more important considerations to account for beyond just financial compensation.

The ideal book for anyone interested in a career in insurance as well as those already working in the industry, "Randi Glazer's 12 Strategies for Surviving a Career in the Insurance Industry" offers the kind of advice every professional hopes to get before beginning a career in their chosen field. With specific examples and highly relevant anecdotes detailing her lengthy career as an underwriter, Glazer's book succeeds in providing vital professional guidance to the next generation of insurance specialists.

Indie Sci-fi Action Thriller to be released March 3rd 2016

San Francisco, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/01/2016 -- 2020 Venture, an independent gaming studio is excited to announce their latest and exclusive Indie Sci-fi Action Thriller game "Chasing Dead" scheduled to be released on the 3rd of March, 2016.

The game begins with a strange phenomenon in which another Earth appears in our skies. The curiosity and fear of a doppelganger planet initiate multiple missions to make contact with the same Earth. A team of agents, astronauts, and scientists were sent 955,600 miles across space by NASA and the US Military. However, all contact is lost a few hours after their arrival.

Players are to play as a marine named Jake sent on a mission to retrieve any research and data left behind by the original survey team while fighting off hostile forces. As Jake, you must traverse the mutant-ridden lands of the alternate Earth as you battle endless hordes of the undead, frightening mutants and insane soldiers. As recordings and research papers are collected, players will steadily come to the horrifying revelation that lead to the parallel Earth's demise.

"We have already made significant progress in adding new features to our next patch. Upcoming features are Multiplayer, Additional Futuristic Weapons, New Enemies and Missions. Depending on the platform, VR integration would be added as well. These features would be released periodically as it clears the internal QA test." said Venture's studio rep.

A fascinating feature of the game is the "live action acting", which is an integral part of Chasing Dead's gameplay and storytelling. The game will be made available on WIIU (America & Europe) and Steam (PC, Linux, and MacOS). Also, 2020 Venture is actively working on PS4, Oculus, and another unique "Visually Impaired Version" as well. "Each platform version will be fully customized for gameplay mechanics and visuals to highlight features of the specific target platform's hardware." said Venture's studio rep.

They have promised to be listening to feedback and feature requests for the next releases. They are urging players to support them through their effort to make this awaited program a better shooting experience.

Ingotech Marketing Launches Indiegogo Campaign for Its Innovative Reusable Plastic

Perth, Australia -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/01/2016 -- INGO is a unique moldable and reusable plastic available in a wallet sized bar that can be used to fashion a wide range of items. The non-toxic bio-degradable polymer easily repairs a broken knob, extends the reach of a makeup brush, or restores a broken toy and can even be used to create a portable holder for a favorite mobile device.

"We need your support for our campaign to help us bring INGO to you," said Martin. "Just choose a perk and your level of funding on our campaign page. Contributors will have access to a variety of INGO perks and early adopter contributors will receive substantial discounts."

To ready the moldable plastic for use, simply place it in hot water to make it pliable. Individuals then have two minutes to mold it into the desired shape. It cools in approximately five minutes and is completely cured and ready to use. Once it cools, INGO forms a strong bond that can be used to repair virtually any plastic product that would otherwise be discarded.

INGO can be reused multiple times by placing it in hot water or by using a hair dryer to soften it. The plastic is even strong enough to use as an impromptu wrench for removing bolts around the house. It's available in five colors that can be combined to produce a total of nine hues to coordinate with any color needed. Each INGO purchase comes with a color matching chart.

Ingotech Marketing is seeking financial assistance through its Indiegogo campaign to bring the revolutionary new INGO to a wider market in a safe and eco-friendly way. Strong like nylon, the multi-faceted polymer can be tucked in a pocket, purse or wallet for repairs on the go. What can be fashioned with the biodegradable polymer is limited only by the imagination.

iSlush is the world’s first slushy machine designed professionally as well as affordably for domestic application. The Slushy Guys Pty Ltd has just started a Kickstarter campaign to fund this project.

Melbourne, Australia -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/01/2016 -- A good slush is loved by all regardless of their age. Adults love to mix their slush with different alcoholic beverages. Most of the parties during the summer are incomplete without slush. This is why it has always been a homeowner's desire to own a professional slushy machine. However, slushy machines are beyond the buying capacity of a common homeowner because of their exorbitant price. Also, the traditional slushy machines have a weight of thirty-five kilograms to seventy-five kilograms. Their weight and bulky size make these machines unsuitable for domestic use.

The Slushy Guys Pty claims that their new product iSlush will solve all these problems. Some of the most important features of iSlush are:

- The iSlush stands at only 40cm in height and 38cm wide.
- It's only around 15kgs in weight.
- It comes with 2 x 3 Litre tanks which create up to 25 cups of perfect, consistent, mouth-watering slush.
-Available in 7 High-Gloss finish colour choices.

The iSlush is extremely easy to operate. The users are only required to add water and their favourite slushy flavours before switching on the machine. Highlighting the quality of their upcoming product, a senior official from The Slushy Guys Pty states, "This product truly is in a league of its own. For the first time in history, you can now own a product that brings genuine happiness, fun, smiles and value to your home at a price never before seen in the industry."

The Slushy Guys Pty has recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for the market launch of the iSlush. This campaign's backers will be the earliest recipients of this unique slushy machine.

Zulu International Inc. Introduces Valmiki Maharaj

$

St. Thomas, Barbados -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/02/2016 -- Riding the mind-blowing wave that was Crop Over 2015, Zulu International Inc. is looking to seriously shake things up this year. After the long-awaited release of their theme "APOCALYPTO", they have been receiving great feedback from past revelers, and from those who are looking to get their feet wet with their first Barbados Crop Over experience.

With band launch season fast approaching, Team Zulu is ecstatic to share another major announcement – the introduction of the newest member to their already dynamic team, Head Designer Valmiki Maharaj.

Hailing from the twin island of Trinidad & Tobago, Val Maharaj comes to Zulu International Inc. right off the heels of Carnival. Val has been designing for the past seven years, and it was in 2009 when he first got involved with the band Tribe Carnival. It was also around that time that Tribe started to reinvigorate itself. "Everything was changing," Val said, "and the fact that they were celebrating their fifth year on the road was a big opportunity to be a part of that team."

Tribe's theme that year was called 'Birds of a Feather' and Val tapped into his creative consciousness in order to breathe life into two individual costumes. "I still remember them, and I still have a relationship with the people who played Mas in them, after all these years," Val said as he reminisced. "It was an absolute great experience. I remember seeing them on stage - it was my first band launch - and I was so excited, and I wanted to collapse because I was working so hard that day. I was working on my own costumes and the production itself. It was just a great experience."

Val retold the story of how he applied to TRIBE, very informally, with his A-level portfolio. "I kind of found my tribe with TRIBE… no pun intended," Val said laughing. "I found a family that was very inviting, and who I maintained a relationship with over a number of years." During his final year at University, Val received a call that would change his life, and as they say, the rest was history.

As one of Tribe and Bliss' principal designers, he was also the Creative Director for one of his biggest achievements – and also what he considered as his most difficult project – the launch of The Lost Tribe, Tribe's second and more intimate all-inclusive Carnival experience.

"The Lost Tribe totally moved away from what we normally see at Carnival. I wanted to see masquerade the way our parents and their parents knew it – with the presentation, drama and flair. I was trying to take something that some people had considered dead, not fashionable and not now, and make it now. Some people don't know what they want until you show them. So as the old adage goes 'if you build it, they will come.'" And they did come.

"I'm proud of it," Val professed. "Proud of the masqueraders, proud of the entire team, and proud that in a very short space of time, a few months even, we were able to pull it all together. From conceptualization right down to providing a fun experience on the road for the masqueraders."

Now that Carnival's over, Valmiki is on the road to Barbados for Crop Over 2016 – full speed ahead. He's expressed great enthusiasm on working with Barbados' premium band experience, Zulu International Inc. After many conversations with Zulu's team, Val expressed that as "a man who operates on vibes, I got great vibes from Zulu and have received nothing but since."

Eager about this new venture, Val is excited to start putting together the designs for Zulu's Apocalypto theme. When asked what inspires him, he replied that there's no one space for inspiration. "It comes from everywhere – from traveling… reading… the Internet. My greatest source however, is from Carnival. I'm inspired by the masqueraders, the movement, the music and the environment. And then of course, there's the band's theme which gives me an overall vision and direction."

Val is also hoping to bring 'a little bit of Val' to Zulu this year. "I want to bring my design style. I want to bring something new to the design table. I know that Zulu is the cream of the crop when it comes to party bands and road experience in Barbados and it's the place to play Mas. I'm hoping to be able to add something to that, to raise the bar and raise the Crop Over costume standard further then we had in the past."

Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/02/2016 -- A hilarious new comedy about a family that is close... but only if geography counts! The ever gorgeous and hilarious Loni Anderson stars as Frances, the boozy and inappropriately sexy mother of two middle age children. She touts "the best way to look young next to your kids is teen pregnancy. Nobody talks about it, but I think it's a selling point."

Frances' gay son Seth (played by Terry Ray), is invaded by his uptight, homophobic sister, Amanda (Wendy Michaels) after she catches her husband having an affair with her best friend, Katherine. It just seems she's way more upset about Katherine cheating on her than her husband. It's not adding up for Seth, especially when Amanda acts all loopy around his lesbian co-worker, Becca (Debra Wilson). Is his homophobic sister gay? And Amanda can't figure out why Seth's way younger and very handsome boyfriend is interested in Seth. He seems to have so many secrets. Is he married?

Watch all six episodes of MY SISTER IS SO GAY at http://www.mysisterissogay.tv Loni Anderson will always be remembered as Jennifer Marlowe from the hit sitcom WKRP IN CINCINNATI, a role which garnered her 3 Golden Globe and 2 Prime Time Emmy Award nominations. Loni was a regular in 5 more series and has guest starred in numerous other shows and TV movies like the title role in THE JAYNE MANSFIELD STORY. Her films include A NIGHT AT THE ROXBURY and STROKER ACE with Burt Reynolds. Her high profile marriage to Burt made them the Brad & Angelina of the 1980s. She is now happily married to Bob Flick, from the folk group The Brothers Four.

MY SISTER IS SO GAY was written and created by Terry Ray and Wendy Michaels. Terry also wrote and starred in FROM HERE ON OUT with Juliet Mills, which was the first all original LGBT sitcom on a gay network, cable's Here TV. He wrote and co-stars in the GILLIGAN'S ISLAND spoof with Dawn Wells, SHE'S STILL ON THAT FREAKIN' ISLAND, with plans to turn that short into an ongoing series.

About Debra Wilson, Tilky Jones, Wendy Michaels and Sam Irvin
Debra Wilson has a near cult-like following for her insanely funny impersonations of whacked out Whitney Houston and overly energetic Oprah Winfrey during her several years on MADtv. Actor / Singer Tilky Jones was an original member of the band Take 5. Wendy Michaels comes from a theater background. Her film credits include I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS. The prolific Sam Irvin is the director of MY SISTER IS SO GAY. The 6 short episodes of season one all combined make a 35 minute comedy.

The DirtGuard Auto Wash System Is Saving Cars from Exterior Damage

DirtGuard is a revolutionary auto wash system that protects the car's finish and paint.

Los Angeles, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/02/2016 -- DirtGuard, the revolutionary auto wash system that protects the car's paint and finish during car washes, is live on Indiegogo and raising funds to bring the project to life.

The DirtGuard is a patented washboard, triple strainer, enclosed filtration system. It's a tool for the bottom of the bucket, providing users with a dirt/grit free water, and wash mitt.

"I hopped online about 10 years ago looking for a tool to help me wash my new black Porsche and found myself empty-handed," says founder Joe Cresswell, "So I invented it myself. The DirtGuard today is on its fourth generation retooling. It can't be thought out any better."

The way it works is simple. The Washboard Triple Strainer Enclosed Filtration System allows water stays free of paint damaging elements while gravity & vacuum drags floating dirt to the bottom. The washboard design exfoliates the mitt/rag, and the filter traps grit and dirt inside and underneath. The DirtGuard Washboard will fit most 3-1/2 to 5 Gallon buckets.

The Smart Bucket is a custom designed bucket meant to work specifically with the system which has five custom grooves  cut around the bottom wall of the bucket allowing the DirtGuard Auto Washboard to snap in, stay secure, and at the same time making it easily removable.

"Anything even close is just a simple strainer concept without any dirt and grit control. It was common sense to me when you're washing a dirty car taking the dirt/grit off the paint it's only contaminating the wash mitt and water. Scratching your paint job with every swipe of the mitt," adds Cresswell.

About DirtGuard
The DirtGuard Auto Wash System is also Eco-Friendly. The system reduces the quantity of water used to wash the car. Unlike other systems that use multiple buckets or poor straining systems to complete a single task, the DirtGuard gives users an all-in-one system. Users need to simply pour the water out into the grass when finished instead of the local sewer run-off.

The complete DirtGuard Auto Wash System Kit includes the washboard, triple strainer, enclosed filtration system, and the custom designed snap-in bucket system. It is ready to go, users simply need to add soap and water.

The DirtGuard Auto Wash System is now live and available on Indiegogo:

Angel Net GPS Tracker Gives Peace of Mind to Families Affected by Autism or Alzheimer's

$

Queens, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/03/2016 -- For loved ones caring for a relative with Alzheimer's, or parents with an autistic child who has a tendency to wander, the most terrifying moment in their lives may be realizing that the person they are caring for is missing. While GPS and Bluetooth tracking products have been introduced to the market, they generally have a low range, if they track at all.

Angel Net GPS Tracker aims to change that. They have developed a GPS tracker that offers both temperature sensing (an exclusive feature!) and live tracking so that responsible relatives always know where their loved one is, and that they're safe. You can set up instant alerts for specific zones, such as when a child gets to a park or school, or if the adult leaves the place they're supposed to be. The battery lasts for 7 days, unlike any other products on the market, and features wireless charging for ultimate convenience.

Angel Net's GPS tracker offers On the Move live updates to your mobile device, along with instant alerts if the car that your loved one is in begins to speed or stops for a length of time. It's even sensitive enough to track someone on foot; no other tracker on the market offers this feature. These impressive specifications and powerful apps protect and offer insights into daily lives 24/7.

To create this tracker, Angel Net built upon trackers that they are currently selling for commercial fleets, and are used to track fleet vehicles, perishable packages, personnel, or equipment.

There are two different styles of covers available for the GPS tracker, depending on whether the device is intended for an adult or a child. The tracker itself is inside of a rubberized ABS case, and offers either kid-friendly clip on covers, or a leather keychain cover for adults.

Several different reward levels are available for the Angel Net GPS tracker, from having a name listed on the website in thanks for support to tracker and service packages.

About Angel Net
The Angel Net GPS tracker was created specifically to help address the needs of those caring for individuals with autism and Alzheimer's. People with both of these conditions can be prone to wandering away, and the current GPS trackers on the market were insufficient for keeping them safe. The makers of the Angel Net GPS tracker strongly believe that this device can help to save lives and keep families safe.

In addition to the crowdfunding campaign, Angel Net is inviting organizations to work together to help families that are unable to afford the regular retail prices of the GPS tracker.

Jurni - New Video Journaling Application Puts Modern Spin on Human Reflection

$
0

San Ramon, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/03/2016 -- Jurni is a new and unique journaling application where users share their experiences via video. Users collect their life experiences throughout the day or can record the full 45 seconds in one setting if they choose. Moments are patched together to form an ongoing story of the user's life and are shared publicly or privately. Jurni users capture moments that matter while allowing greater connectivity with people who are going through similar experiences and emotions.

"Jurni is a video sharing platform that has reinvented journaling. In the past, written journals helped people self reflect and connect to the the world around them. Jurni now goes a step further providing users an easy means of chronicling visual content. Reflecting on and connecting through that content on a more meaningful level opens a new world of possibilities for personal growth and community sharing," said Edreece Arghandiwal, co-founder of Jurni, Inc.

Jurni's goal is to create something within the modern technological framework that changes this societal disproportion and addresses human needs. Authenticity has been a staple word Jurni has emphasized throughout development. A sort of genuineness is lacking today because people are bombarded with external stimuli without sufficient time to reflect, relax and truly communicate and connect with others. In the past, journaling was one method people used for memorializing life's moments allowing for self-reflection, growth and healing. Scientific studies bear out the compelling value of journaling on self-awareness and impactful self-conversation. Jurni decided that putting a modern spin on journaling through an all video interactive application would serve the dual purpose of memorializing events in a beautiful, visual manner, while allowing users to share their stories with others. By self-defining an emotion and topic, the user categorizes jurnies for later consumption in an organized, searchable fashion.

"Through leveraging how users feel and focused topic tagging, we have created a more intuitive and intimate content connection for users," Edreece continued.

People have the opportunity to respond to a user's public jurnies via video. There is no ability to text nor is there a like button. If someone feels strongly enough about a user's Jurni, they can respond in kind with video comments. Texting trolls and the ease with which texting creates negativity and disconnect are removed from the Jurni equation. Similarly, a like button leads to superficialities that Jurni does not encourage. If someone seeks disharmony or small gestures, they always have other social media options. Jurni, on the other hand, is designed to enhance engagement and deeper interaction among people.

Discovering that surface level communication has become an imperceptible, ubiquitous form of communication only happens when confronted with something wholly different from the current norm. Fortunately, using Jurni is that wake up call. The initial shock generated by the dissonance between Jurni and other current approaches challenges users. Breaking through modern contrived barriers takes a bit of effort at first but the time-tested rewards of journaling are now encapsulated in Jurni for those willing to embark on a new path.

As the ancient Chinese philosopher Laozi proclaimed, "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." So to, modern society's step back toward authentic community begins with a single Jurni.
