"Your 401k Survival Guide" Released: A Book for America's Workforce

"I deal daily with 401(k) plan participants who really want to do the best job they can in saving for retirement and managing their 401(k) savings plan, but there are few good, practical tools to help them," noted Rick Meigs. "I've read every book available that purports to help the American worker in this endeavor. Few do. They just rehash the same old advice which has proven to be ineffective. That's why we wrote this book."

"We felt that America's workforce needed a book that was easy to read and understand, one that clearly explained concepts and principles that employees have historically found difficult to grasp," said Matthew D. Hutcheson. "We believe the '401k Survival Guide' does just that. It finally gives employees the insight they need - in everyday examples and language."... (Continue reading)

Digital Television Trumps Analog: The Countdown Has Started

ConnectMyCable.com, an interactive online service that helps consumers connect their television service, informs consumers about the upcoming nationwide mandatory switch from a 5a8 nalog to digital television.

The FCC has stated that as of February 17, 2009 all over-the-air-broadcasting must convert to an all-digital format.

The new digital or DTV format will give consumers:

Digital picture quality free of ghosts and snow that usually plagues analog signals

Multiple programming through multi-channel streams

The analog channels will be used for public safety such as police, fire and emergency rescue and advanced wireless services. Consumers who currently subscribe to satellite or cable service will most likely not be affected by the switch. Those who will lose their television signal are those who rely on analog over-the-air stations; however, consumers don't have to rush out and buy HDTVs if they don't want to. Converter boxes are available to change the analog signal 5a8 into digital.... (Continue reading)

Michael-Bruno Brings "Light" to The Da Vinci Code

After accomplishing some of the most talked-about light design and engineering projects in Italy - including the famed Vittorio Emanuele II Monument in Rome - Michael-Bruno, LLC, has "spun-off its team of fiber optic specialists in a new division called, simply, "LIGHT by MB."

"We've established superb techniques in state-of-the-art lighting for monuments, churches, historical buildings, gardens, arenas, shopping malls, and other major structures," said Michael Sedge, president of Michael-Bruno, which operates seven offices in the United States and one in Europe. "We've recently completed a second project in Italy, this time the cloisters of a 13th century monastery in Naples. The project, funded by the region of Campania, was a spectacular success using over 20 kilometers of fiber optics."

One of the firms more unique projects, according to division head, Giuseppe Bruno, is a multiplex cinema (13 screen rooms), for which they incorporated fiber optic light designs on the external facade of the structure with moving light.

"The illumination moves, while changing color and speed based on the music of the film in the main viewing room. This weekend, for instance, with THE DA VINCI CODE playing, the light flowed white-to-blue-to-red, depending on the drama. It moved faster or slower through fiber optic tubing, based on the music rhythm. Thus, from the outside of the theater one would, in a sense, get a feel for the movie inside," Bruno explained.

Michael-Bruno is hoping to take its "LIGHT by MB" to commercial clients throughout the United States, including construction and design firms.... (Continue reading)
