Andre Alves Hosts The 2012 Annual Perennial Plant Exchange In Rochester, NY











Andre Alves Perennial Exchange in Rochester NY


Rochester, NY (PRWEB) January 27, 2012

When separating perennials this year, rather than dropping them in the yard waste container, drop by the Andre Alves Rochester NY Perennial Plant Exchange and find someone to exchange plants with and get new perennial yard plants.

“This is a great way for gardeners to thin their perennial beds, add new plant varieties to any garden, meet other gardeners, share information and experiences…and save money,” said Andre Alves from Rochester NY Perennial Plant Exchange. Andre Alves will be hosting the Rochester NY annual perennial plant exchange in the spring of 2012.

“This is one of the best times of the year to divide perennials. Dig them now while they’re small enough to handle. They’ll adjust to their new location faster with growth just starting” mentions Andre Alves from Rochester, NY.

No registration is required for the event, which will take place at the Rochester, NY 12 Corners. Alves said, “This is a free event, and only trading of plants is permitted. All plants should be labeled, and only healthy, pest-free plants may be exchanged.”

Plants may be in plastic bags, boxes or any other disposable container. Those who have plants to sell may do so at the neighborhood garage sales in Brighton NY.

Andre Alves from Rochester, NY owns Aware Bear Computer Repair in Pittsford, NY reminds people about not selling plants or garden supplies at the Rochester NY Perennial Exchange group. “The Rochester Perennial Exchange group was created in order to promote the plant exchange between neighbors and friends. The whole idea is to exchange the surplus plants instead of throwing them out,” said Alves from Pittsford, NY.

When gardeners bring a plant to the free Perennial Plant Exchange, a space where the exchange can take place will be given. Labeling all plants is recommended in order to help the plant identification process. Plants should be identified by type, such as “flowering plant,” “shrub,” “non-flowering plant,” and “tree.” These labels can help expedite the exchange process.

Any questions about the Rochester NY Perennial Exchange Group can be answered by visiting: [http://rochesterperennialexchange.com

SomnoMed Acquires Dutch Oral Appliance Distribution Company

SomnoMed Acquires Dutch Oral Appliance Distribution Company










Frisco, TX (PRWEB) January 23, 2012

SomnoMed announced on January 17, 2012 that it had entered into an agreement to acquire the Dutch oral appliance distribution company Goedegebuure Slaaptechniek B.V. (“GS”). GS has seen a rapid development of its sales since the reimbursement of oral appliance treatment using the SomnoDent device was approved in Holland in January 2010. GS enjoys the exclusive support of most large insurance providers in Holland and as a result is the leading distributor of oral appliances in the Netherlands. The services of the existing Dutch senior management of GS have been retained pursuant to a five year management agreement, as part of the acquisition.

GS will market and distribute the SomnoMed product range for the treatment of sleep disordered breathing in the Netherlands and will change its name to SomnoMed Goedegebuure Slaaptechniek B.V.

SomnoMed’s CEO Ralf Barschow said, “We are very excited and proud to have entered into an agreement to acquire Goedegebuure Slaaptechniek B.V., the leading distributor of oral appliances in Holland. Our partners have a long history in the quality dental laboratory industry and enjoy an excellent reputation, especially with the Dutch insurance companies.”

“We are confident that our partnership will contribute to strong growth of our European business. We see the approach taken by the Dutch health insurers, reimbursing patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea for the first line treatment with an oral appliance instead of CPAP, as exemplary for other countries in Europe.”

Goedegebuure Slaaptechniek Managing Director Wolter Jagt commented, “We are very much looking forward to our partnership with SomnoMed. Not only will we be able to broaden our product line but we will also gain direct access to SomnoMed’s global business network and their research & development. We are also very excited about becoming shareholders in SomnoMed Limited and are confident that we will be able to contribute with our experience gained in Holland to the future success and ongoing growth of SomnoMed in Europe.”

The consideration for the first 50% of the capital of GS is one million Euro, of which 250,000 Euro has been paid in cash and the balance by way of 805,664 shares in SomnoMed Limited issued at A$ 1.28 per share. These Shares will be voluntarily escrowed for a period of 12 months. The remaining 50% of GS will be acquired by SomnoMed over a period of 5 years in four equal annual portions commencing in April 2014. The price for these 12.5% tranches will be linked to the net profits generated by GS’s business in the Netherlands and will be payable half in cash and half in shares in SomnoMed Limited.

About SomnoMed

SomnoMed is a publically listed dental sleep medicine company (ASX:SOM) providing diagnostic and treatment solutions for Sleep Breathing Disorders such as Obstructive Sleep Apnea. SomnoMed was commercialized on the basis of extensive clinical research. Supporting independent clinical research, continuous innovation and instituting medical manufacturing standards has resulted in SomnoDent becoming the state-of-the-art and clinically proven medical oral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea. SomnoDent is the most comfortable and effective design and treatment solution for over 70,000 patients in 20 countries. For additional information, visit SomnoMed at http://www.somnomed.com.

Author Learning Center Interviews “Pretty” Author Jillian Lauren













Bloomington, IN (PRWEB) January 19, 2012

Author Learning Center, the premier online author education resource for writers engaged in any stage of the story development or book marketing process, today announced Jillian Lauren, the best-selling author of the acclaimed memoir “Some Girls: My Life in a Harem” and her most recent novel “Pretty” will be featured on the site in a series of captivating and informative video interviews.

Lauren, who rose to fame following the release of her memoir, “Some Girls,” the true story of how a New Jersey native became part of the Prince of Brunei’s personal harem, has led a life that echoes a Hollywood movie, complete with thrills and controversy. Recently featured on CNN, the author, blogger and mother of one has a lot to share about the stories she chronicles in her books and is equally willing to discuss her experiences writing those same books.

In her first video interview with the Author Learning Center, “The Road to Pretty: A conversation with Jillian Lauren,” Lauren talks about her latest novel, “Pretty” and the methods she uses to shape her stories. “I write the worst 500-page draft of all time, and I try to see the heart of the story—and then I start to outline, and I write another draft, and another—I generally write seven or eight full drafts.” The full interview is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPvfD5snvZY.

“Jillian Lauren brings a unique energy and enthusiasm to the Author Learning Center,” said Keith Ogorek, senior vice-president of marketing at Author Solutions, Inc. “The stories from her memoir are, in many cases, more captivating than the best fiction, and that talent for taking real-life drama and expressing it through interesting and compelling written words is something we are excited to showcase in the Author Learning Center.”

Lauren joins Stan Lee, Elmore Leonard, Mitch Albom and Victor Villasenor as one of many A-list authors interviewed by the Author Learning Center. Over the next few weeks, new content will be available from other publishing industry leaders, including Morris Ruskin and Pete Nikolai.
