JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort & Spa

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) February 20, 2012

St. Patrick’s Day is fast approaching, and there’s no better place to spend it than at the JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort & Spa. Why is a Las Vegas resort the place to be for St. Paddy’s Day? For starters, it’s home to J.C. Wooloughan’s Irish Pub, the most authentic and popular Irish establishment in Las Vegas. And for three days, from March 14 through March 17, the pub and the resort will be at the center of an amazing array of Emerald Isle festivities, from great drink specials, to the most delicious Irish pub fare, to live music and more. Whether Irish by birth, or just in spirit, guests are sure to have a great time this St. Patrick’s Day at the JW Marriott Las Vegas.

The party starts rolling on Wednesday, 3/14, with a special Happy Hour from 3PM until 7PM. Guests will enjoy $ 5 deals on special Irish appetizers and 50% off Irish draft beer. At 7PM, live music kicks in when the band Celtic Rockers take the stage. On Thursday, Happy Hour cranks up again at 3PM, with more specials on appetizers and Irish beer. Live music that evening will feature the renowned U2 tribute band, Arms of America. There’s no slowing down come Friday, with more Happy Hour pub grub and beer, with live music starting at 4PM by popular Las Vegas busker, Nick Mattera, followed by rockers Okay Jim scheduled at 9PM. There’s no cover charge all three nights.

Saturday the 17th, the party starts early when the doors to J.C. Wooloughan’s Las Vegas Irish Pub open at 10AM. Entertainment begins at noon in the resort’s beautiful outdoor patio with Las Vegas’ premier Irish band, Finnegan’s Wake. Nick Mattera will be back in the pub starting at 2PM to get things rolling there. On the patio, Celtic Rockers appear at 4PM. Later that evening, with the festivities rising nicely, things kick into high gear as Arms of America and Okay Jim again take simultaneous center stage on the the JW Marriott patio and J.C. Wooloughan’s, respectively. A cover charge of $ 20 on Saturday (starting at 3PM) allows party revelers to enjoy both venues.

Aside from drink specials and happy hour deals, at different times during the week J.C. Wooloughan’s and JW Marriott’s Las Vegas resort will also be welcoming the Guinness Girls, the Jameson Girls, and the Smirnoff Whipped & Fluffed Girls, who will be giving out plenty of friendly smiles as well as Irish-themed swag, such as t-shirts, trinkets, and other green paraphernalia. Bagpipers and leprechauns will also be roaming the halls. And for basketball fans, there will be plenty of wide-screen TVs tuned to NCAA Basketball, so guests can enjoy green beer and Irish food while catching all the college hoops fun.

Green Planet Grass

(PRWEB) February 17, 2012

One of Western Australia’s best loved outdoor children’s play facilities has been boosted by a makeover from Perth’s synthetic grass specialists, Green Planet Grass.

Maylands Waterland, situated on the popular Maylands Peninsula, overlooking the Swan River just 7 km from the Perth CBD has long proved popular with children and families.

Recognized as the leading outdoor water playground in Western Australia, the City of Bayswater facility is now bursting with colour thanks to the installation managed from start to finish by Green Planet Grass.

The play equipment on site makes Maylands Waterland a perfect location for kids but the surrounding unattractive black rubber surface has now been replaced with vibrant green synthetic turf, improving the experience for all of the family this summer and for many more years to come.

As with many school and childcare centres, bringing new life to the existing play areas was a challenge for the City of Bayswater but Green Planet Grass provided solutions that encourage children to play. This was achieved through a range of soft polyethylene, hard wearing and long lasting synthetic grasses suitable for playgrounds and other heavily used areas.

Managing Director of Green Planet Grass, Jeff Dennis, said: “Maylands Waterland is set in beautiful wildflower gardens and has four sparkling pools. It’s been a really popular destination for families for many years so bringing a fresh new feel to the children’s playground was a challenge that we relished and the results are really rewarding, having replacing black rubber flooring with Multiplay Plus synthetic grass.”

“The Green Planet Grass range of synthetic grass products transforms a wide range of spaces into highly attractive and versatile multisport and play areas. Synthetic grass is particularly attractive around swings and is a soft yet stable option for ball games and high traffic play areas for children of all ages.”

“We have an in-house design and installation team to ensure that every aspect of the job, from initial design, through to supply and installation is carried out with the highest attention to detail. The Multiplay range of lawns include many bright colours. So, in addition to the lush green of natural-looking turf, Multiplay comes in different colours that can be incorporated into all manner of activity zones within one area such as running tracks, hop scotch, four square and other games,” Mr Dennis added.

Line markings can also be integrated to allow for sports such as 5-aside soccer, basketball, cricket and tennis to be included in general play areas. Green Planet Grass also recommends the use of rubber shock pads compliant with Australian safety standards to be installed under the grass to minimise the possibility of injuries.

Chula Vista residents use Love Your Block grants to improve their community.

CHULA VISTA, CA (PRWEB) February 13, 2012

Following a successful resident-driven community improvement effort in 2011, Chula Vista Serves today announced the availability of three remaining Love Your Block grants for Chula Vista residents and community groups. Grant recipients are awarded a $ 500 Home Depot gift card, which can be used to purchase materials for a neighborhood improvement project.

Applications are available at http://www.cvserves.org and are due by February 27. Instructions for submitting completed applications are available on the grant application.

Last year, Chula Vista Serves awarded 17 Love Your Block mini-grants to fund neighborhood improvement projects. Through the support of The Home Depot Foundation, the grants helped volunteers revitalize school vegetable gardens, improve a local T-ball facility, and provide materials to neighborhood groups working to remove graffiti and improve dilapidated spaces in their communities.

The neighborhood groups that accomplished these projects were recognized by the Chula Vista Mayor and City Council on January 26.

“Our ability to make lasting change through service is invaluable to the long-term success of our city – we all have a stake in our future,” said Chula Vista Mayor Cheryl Cox. “This has been an outstanding community effort and now is a perfect opportunity for more residents to get involved to strengthen our city with their time and talents.”

Highlight results from the groups’ combined volunteer efforts include:

    200 pounds of litter collected
    Nearly 3,000 square feet of graffiti removed
    19 trees and 35 shrubs planted
    5 community gardens created
    Nearly 800 Chula Vista residents and volunteers contributed their time to Love Their Block!

An example of the many projects that contributed to the 2011 results is Volunteers of America Affordable Housing Complex in southwest Chula Vista. Residents, youth volunteers, and apartment managers used Love Your Block grant funding to build ten raised garden beds and a garden shed on an underutilized strip of land adjacent to the complex’s parking lot. Residents of the complex had long sought additional space for gardening, and the Love Your Block program provided a catalyst for the community to work together to realize this vision.

Love Your Block is a tested, high-impact community service opportunity for Chula Vista residents to demonstrate their neighborhood pride, work together, and revitalize areas on their block needing attention or some extra tender loving care.

Project Description

Chula Vista Serves seeks neighborhood groups/organizations to develop and implement volunteer-led projects.

Love Your Block Applicant Criteria

    For the purpose of the Love Your Block campaign, a block is defined as a minimum of 10 residents in proximity to one another within the City of Chula Vista.
    Each group must have a detailed and realistic action plan for engaging residents to carry out a physical transformation of their block.
    Implement the volunteer project in March 2012.
    Grant recipients must also commit to providing before/after pictures as well as measure specific impact, e.g., # of trees planted, # of pounds of trash collected, # of pounds of mulch distributed, square footage of graffiti removed, # of green spaces/gardens created, # of physical resources created , # of volunteers engaged.

Potential Projects include, but are not limited to:

    Vacant lot clean-up
    Litter removal
    Graffiti removal
    Fence replacement/painting
    Pet waste bag dispenser(s)
    Tree planting (not in city right of way)

The initial areas of focus are education and community health and wellness. For more information about Chula Vista Serves and to read the service plan, visit cvserves.org.

The Perecman Firm

New York, New York (PRWEB) February 08, 2012

The New York Police Department is conducting a New York police brutality probe against four officers in the Bronx after a video showed them “pummeling and kicking” a drug suspect, reported the New York Post (2/1/2012).

The video titled “These Cops In The Bronx, NY Are Out Of Control!” was available for viewing by New York civil rights violation lawyers on the website WorldStarHipHop. A bystander shot the video on a cell phone, reported The Wall Street Journal (2/1/2012).

“Allegations of improper conduct by the police are not always investigated due to a lack of evidence. Video footage can be a serious game-changer,” said New York civil rights violation lawyer David Perecman.

The video shows Jatiek Reed, 19, being wrestled to the sidewalk by officers. The four officers then “repeatedly strike him with their batons and kick him,” according to The New York Times (2/1/2012).

After the incident of alleged excessive force by police officers, Reed apparently looked like a victim of police brutality. His mother said her son was left “black and blue,” reported the New York Post.

The officers allege Reed “resisted handcuffs, and punched and head-butted one of the officers,” reported the New York Daily News (2/1/2012). Reportedly, officers also saw Reed trying to discard drugs before the video began.

“Police officers are only permitted to use force in proportion to the immediate situation and the threat posed by another person,” said New York civil rights violation lawyer Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm, one of New York’s civil rights violation law firms.

The Bronx district attorney’s office confirmed an investigation into the allegations of excessive force by police officers, reported the NYDN (1/31/2012).

“A picture can be worth 1000 words. A video may be worth many more,” said New York civil rights violation lawyer Perecman.

The expert New York civil rights violation lawyers at The Perecman Firm are committed to securing damages for victims of excessive force by police officers in New York. For more information, please contact The Perecman Firm at http://www.perecman.com.

(PRWEB UK) 2 February 2012

The UK’s no.1 home improvement company Conservatory Outlet has become one of the first businesses associated with the double glazing and conservatory industry to create their own Google+ page.

Although the conservatory specialists already have both a Facebook page and Twitter account where they have acquired hundreds of ‘likes’ and ‘followers’, they believe that an existence on Google+ will give them further opportunity to interact and connect with new and existing customers.

Being on Google+ will also make the firm more searchable as Google indexes all business pages on their hugely popular search engine. This will help Conservatory Outlet reaffirm their top ranking position for relevant keywords such as ‘conservatories’.

Unique features on Google+ such as ‘Hangouts’ gave Conservatory Outlet extra incentive to join the world’s newest social networking site as it will enable them to have one-to-one video conservations with customers where they can gain feedback and get to know their clientele better.

As they do with their Facebook and Twitter accounts, Conservatory Outlet intend on updating their Google+ page regularly with company news, industry news relating to double glazing, triple glazing and conservatories, including blog posts and images.

They will promote their brand new page by adding a Google+ badge to their website and publicising it via Facebook and Twitter. You can visit Conservatory Outlet’s Google+ page at: https://plus.google.com/114695216523573419467/posts.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) January 28, 2012

DjO Design Group, a Chicago web design company, today announced the start of creating a website for the Christopher D. Wheatley Memorial Foundation based in Lemont, IL. The CDW Memorial Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity created after Chicago Firefighter and Paramedic Christopher D. Wheatley, 31, died while fighting a restaurant fire on August 9, 2010.

Chris was an inspirational individual who lived a life devoted to serving his community, family and friends. A dedicated Chicago Firefighter, Chris also worked with STARTGroup in his spare time teaching proper emergency response techniques to municipal/plant employees. Chris was also an instructor at University of Illinois Chicago to medical students, teaching proper emergency techniques, and also volunteered his time to a variety of organizations.

“I never met Christopher but based on how his mother Mary described him and all that he did, I felt obligated to help in any way we could”, said Dariusz Owca, cofounder of DjO Design Group. He added, “We want to give his family the ability to continue where Chris left off and continue giving to the community.”

The website construction is underway and will contain information about the public charity, pictures of fundraising events, and the ability for the public to make tax-deductible donations to their scholarship fund. In 2011, the CDW Memorial Foundation distributed over $ 12,000 in scholarships and firefighter charities. In 2012, the Christopher D. Wheatley Memorial Foundation will have its second annual golf fundraiser at Cog Hill golf course in Lemont, IL., located just 30 miles southwest of Chicago.

“We’re excited about the CDW website because it’s a great cause and because some of our existing clients would make great sponsors for their golf outing”, said Dariusz. Flood Specialists, Inc., a Chicago Fire & Water Damage Restoration company is one of these companies who has recently agreed to be a sponsor in the 2012 CDW Memorial Foundation golf fundraiser. “We’re doing more than just building websites, we’re working ‘for’ our clients”, said Dariusz. He added, “When I told Flood Specialists about the golf fundraiser, they didn’t hesitate and wanted to be a part of it”.

The website will be located at http://cdwmemorialfoundation.org and http://chriswheatley.org and will focus on the CDW Memorial Foundation. DjO Design Group will also create a website at http://golf-fundraiser.com for golf fundraising events where all non-profit organizations can have a place to publish their golf events and photos.

Christiane Schmenk, Director Ohio Department of Development addressing the speakers at the dedication event.

Lima, Ohio (PRWEB) January 24, 2012

American Trim hosted a dedication ceremony to celebrate the team effort of the State of Ohio and American Trim in advancing innovative manufacturing in the Ohio area. Speakers from the company as well as state and local dignitaries spoke to manufacturing improvements occurring all over Ohio to keep the industry strong.

American Trim embarked on this project to reduce energy consumption through changing their UV Tape Line. The State of Ohio provided opportunities to access resources, guidelines and advice to move this project forward. The Finish Development Center’s UV Tape Line selectively applies a protective film to a part and then cures the coating with ultraviolet light. This process reduces energy consumption by up to 95%. This savings is seen through the elimination of the need to heat the coating and the substrate, cure the coating, and then cool the panel back to room temperature for safe handling. This technology is “green” with no environmental emissions.

By selectively applying the coating, the part can retain the same protective coating throughout the manufacturing process, continue through the sales process, and into the consumer’s home where the protective coating can then be removed. This is both a process and cost improvement for manufacturers.

American Trim has been successful in scaling their research efforts for high-tech manufacturing. These efforts are part of the company’s multi-year commitment to reinvent their manufacturing processes and pursue an agile manufacturing strategy. The completion of the Finish Development Center creates opportunities for expansion into additional markets in the alternative energy, automotive, and appliance industries. This will allow American Trim to compete more effectively in this global economy.

Other companies that are making similar investments in Lima:

INEOS is investing $ 25 million in a new 72,000 sq ft office complex

Potash Corp recently invested $ 45 million in capital projects.

Husky Lima Refinery is investing $ 105 million in new facilities

Ford Lima Engine Plant will be getting a new $ 400 million engine line

American Trim specializes in the forming, decorating and coating of metal and composite materials. Supported by a strong focus on research and development, American Trim is dedicated to providing solutions for the most extreme environments, structural challenges or highly decorative needs.
