SteelMaster 30th Anniversary

Virginia Beach, VA (PRWEB) February 20, 2012

SteelMaster Buildings will be celebrating its 30-year anniversary in February. SteelMaster is well-known as the leading manufacturer of steel and metal pre-fabricated arched buildings.

SteelMaster has merely scratched the surface of their steel building market and future. According to Inside Business Magazine, SteelMaster is amongst the ranks of “Hampton Roads Roaring 20”. This distinguishes SteelMaster as one of the region’s fastest growing companies, while making significant contributions to the local economy. SteelMaster is licensed as a small business with a staff of 50 working out of their headquarters in Virginia Beach.

“We are perfectly poised for continued growth”, touts Vice President Rob Poellnitz, with all the confidence of a Navy Admiral positioned for battle.

“We share a common vision and we believe in the SteelMaster product”, adds Michelle Wickum, Marketing Director. “When you are dealing with a superior product, a staff comprised of the best in the business in their respective fields, with the outcome being extremely happy clients, it’s a ‘win-win’ situation.”

This past year alone, SteelMaster has stood out from the crowd in big ways.

SteelMaster was recognized as one of the “12 to Watch” by the United States Senate Productivity and Quality Award program (SPQA) for Virginia. To qualify, SteelMaster had to meet rigorous standards from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence. As a part of the recognition, they received Criteria for Performance Excellence Training, Mentoring and Scholarship participation in Virginia’s SPQA’s Discovery Program. In a press statement, Virginia SPQA Board Chair Jo Rohr said, “SteelMaster is on the cusp of major growth”.

SteelMaster was awarded the Commonwealth of Virginia’s “Compass Award for Excellence in International Trade”. This recognition is only given to a Virginia business that has excelled in global trade while positively representing the Commonwealth in the international arena. Recipients must have increased their international profile, promoted the best interests of its employees and surrounding communities, and contributed to the economic health and quality of life of Virginians.

SteelMaster was the winner of an export video promotion contest co-sponsored by the U.S. Small Business Administration and VISA. SteelMaster received a $ 12,000 award, including cash and travel costs to participate in the awards ceremony, and a Department of Commerce Gold Key matching service.

Further, two SteelMaster custom-designed homes appeared in The Wall Street Journal and the New York Daily News. SteelMaster also completed its first two buildings certified as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design projects.

SteelMaster’s steel and metal pre-engineered buildings are uniquely designed for residential and commercial applications including Garages, Workshops, Carports, Agricultural Storage, Metal Barns, Quonsets, Green Buildings, Airplane Hangars, RV Storage, Roofing Systems, Storage Buildings, Military Buildings, Commercial Warehouses and Industrial Storage. Custom Building applications include Athletic Facilities, Retail Stores, Churches, Bus Stops, Smoke Shacks, Doggie Dorms and even Correctional Facilities.

SteelMaster concepts and designs are limited only by the request and imagination of each individual customer.

SteelMaster buildings are engineered for life and backed by a 30-year warranty from ArcelorMittal Dofasco Steel Mill and provide 100% of usable space, along with ease of construction and low maintenance. Through common ownership, SteelMaster owns the factory where its Steel Buildings are engineered, designed and manufactured. This affords SteelMaster to incorporate and oversee the most stringent quality standards in order to effectively deliver their clients the exact buildings they envisioned.

SteelMaster’s 30-year Anniversary marks over 40,000 SteelMaster buildings constructed worldwide, on six continents, and in over 50 countries.

Cleveland, Ohio (PRWEB) February 17, 2012

When Equity Trust put out the call for examples of tax-free wealth building at its best for its Self-Directed Investor of the Year contest, the response was amazing. Now one top client will share the impressive results of her self-directed investing during an upcoming webinar.

Lorraine Walls of Virginia was chosen among more than 70 impressive entries to receive Equity Trust Company’s 2011 Self-Directed Investor of the Year title. Lorraine and her husband, Richard, grew tired of losing large chunks of their retirement fund in the stock market. They decided to take charge and found a way to secure a comfortable future for themselves and their four adopted special-needs children.

One of the most amazing parts about the process was that they had no prior experience in real estate investments or self-directed IRAs.

“We have lost (in the past) and others have taken advantage of us, and we thought self-directed investing was too good to be true. But it works. We are two regular people from working-class backgrounds who are now very comfortable and continue to live off one paycheck to secure our futures and our family’s future,” says Equity Trust Self-Directed Investor of the Year Lorraine Walls.

A Self-Directed IRA enables an individual to invest his or her retirement savings in the stock market as well as alternative investments like real estate, renewable energy, precious metals and much more. Lorraine and Richard have mostly placed their investments in real estate, achieving returns as high as 21 percent. They’ll reveal the process they use to find these investments during a free webinar February 23, 2012 at 8 p.m. ET. Find the details here: http://tinyurl.com/79rgqng

Do you have a successful self-directed investment under your belt that rivals Lorraine’s? Share it for a chance to be the 2012 Self-Directed Investor of the Year. The winner receives a free IRA for life, and several finalists will receive free admission to our Equity University Networking Conference in September and an invitation to speak on one of the panels. Visit http://www.trustetc.com/contest for details.

About Equity Trust Company

Equity Trust Company, with its corporate headquarters in Cleveland, Ohio and operations in Waco, Texas and Sioux Falls, South Dakota, is at the forefront of the self-directed retirement plan industry.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) February 14, 2012

Follow us on LinkedIn – The recent global economic recession, which had a negative impact on most of the industry sectors during 2008 and 2009, not surprisingly left the global market for leather goods and accessories hurting. Following the decline in revenue growth during the period, the global leather goods and accessories industry staged a comeback in the year 2010, primarily driven by resurgence in growth fundamentals such as improvement in global economy, and subsequent improvement in consumer spending power. However, the recovery did not last very long, as the industry stumbled upon another obstacle as a result of the debt crisis in the Euro region. The Euro debt crisis induced an exacerbating impact on the value of many global currencies, thereby subjecting the global leather industry to certain external pressures such as fluctuations in exchange rates. The impact has been more adverse on small and weak exporters, as they do not possess the financial capability to hedge currency risks.

Developing nations are the prime producers of leather goods and accessories, while developed nations represent the leading consumers. The markets for leather goods and accessories are concentrated in the developed nations. The presence of high net worth individuals and high GDP in these countries are the prime factors that lead to the domination of these markets worldwide. The market structure is fragmented with several large global companies and several small local handicraft traders. Consumption trends tend towards globalization, and players with a global presence are less affected by the regional economic turbulences. Price range of leather goods is distinctively very large. Price positioning is based on brand relevance, and the factors determining brand relevance include innovation, quality, and design content.

Travel items represent the largest product segment in the global market for leather goods. However, recent trends suggest that long leather gloves are once again gaining tremendous popularity among consumers. Versatility and widespread appeal are considered the two main factors responsible for this trend. Leather is employed in varied applications due to its wind resistance and exceptional abrasion quality features. Of late, leather jackets have been gaining immense popularity, thanks to the high levels of innovation and product development, brought in by various designers and leather companies. Bomber jackets have also become popular among consumers, and serve as a stylish outfit by meeting the requirements of fashion buffs. Originally meant for defence personnel, leather bomber jackets are eventually being worn by both men and women, depending upon their design and style.

The research report titled “Leather Goods and Accessories: A Global Outlook” announced by Global Industry Analysts, Inc., provides a collection of statistical anecdotes, market briefs, and concise summaries of research findings. The report offers an aerial view of the global industry, identifies major short to medium term market challenges, and growth drivers. The report also recapitulates recent noteworthy mergers, acquisitions, and other strategic developments. Regional markets briefly abstracted include the United States, Canada, France, Germany, UK, China and India among others. Market discussions in the report are punctuated with fact-rich market data tables. Also included is an indexed, easy-to-refer, fact-finder directory listing the addresses, and contact details of companies worldwide.

Milwaukee, Wis. (PRWEB) February 10, 2012

1492 Capital Management, as investment adviser, today announced that it has launched a no-load family of mutual funds, the 1492 Funds, consisting of the 1492 Small Cap Growth fund and the 1492 Small Cap Value fund. The funds trade under the NASDAQ symbols of FNTGX and FNTVX, respectively.

“We’re really excited about launching these products. These are institutional-style products with low minimum initial investment requirements that should appeal to many audiences,” said Joseph Frohna, Principal of and portfolio manager at 1492 Capital Management, LLC. “We will be using our time-tested thematic approach to managing these funds as we’ve been doing for the majority of our investment careers,” he continued. “Investors and advisers have been asking us for years for these products and we believe it’s a great time to be coming to market with these funds,” added Tim Stracka, Principal and Director of Institutional Sales.

Investments in the Small Cap Growth Fund are selected using a bottom-up fundamental process in conjunction with theme-based investing. Theme-based investing is used to emphasize industries and/or sectors of the economy that are believed to have better growth prospects than others. Once a theme is identified and additional fundamental analysis is employed, the Adviser attempts to find individual stocks that will benefit from the theme.

Investments in the Small Cap Value Fund are the result of a bottom-up thematic approach focusing on dividend paying small-cap companies with strong fundamentals and management teams. Investments in the fund are selected by applying fundamental research including our proprietary valuation process referred to as “triangulation,” which incorporates financial criteria and ratios from three sources: the balance sheet; income statement; and cash flow statement.

The 1492 Small Cap Growth and Small Cap Value Funds are now available for new investments. The minimum initial investment for each fund is $ 10,000 with subsequent minimums of $ 250. The funds’ management fee is 1.00% with overall net expenses capped at 1.10% (1). For more information, or to access the prospectus, SAI and an application to open an account, please visit http://www.1492Funds.com.

About 1492 Capital Management, LLC

1492 Capital Management, LLC, headquartered in Milwaukee, is an investment advisor to a no-load family of mutual funds, the 1492 Funds, as well as to separately managed account clients. 1492 Capital Management, LLC employs a bottom-up thematic approach to investing.

Additional Information

Nothing in this press release shall be considered a solicitation to buy or an offer to sell a security to any person in any jurisdiction where such offer, solicitation, purchase or sale would be unlawful prior to registration under the applicable securities laws.

(1) Total annual fund operating expenses are estimated to be 1.93% before waivers/reimbursement. The Funds’ adviser contractually has agreed to waive its management fee and/or to reimburse expenses through March 31, 2013, as described in the funds’ prospectus. This arrangement may not be terminated prior to this date except by the Board of Trustees. The net expense ratio of 1.10% reflects this fee waiver/expense reimbursement.

You should carefully consider the investment objectives, potential risks, management fees, and charges and expenses of the Funds before investing. The Funds’ prospectus contains this and other information about the Funds, and should be read carefully before investing. You may obtain a current copy of the Funds’ prospectus by calling 1-877-571-1492. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Funds will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Generally, nano-cap, micro-cap, small-cap and less seasoned companies have more potential for rapid growth. They also often involve greater risk than large- or mid-cap companies, and these risks are passed on to the Funds.

Orem, Utah (PRWEB) February 08, 2012

A rise in the average cost of building and installation labour rates led to an overall increase in Canadian reconstruction costs in 2011, according to a new report from Xactware.

Released today, Xactware’s 2011 Property Report for Canada shows that the national average for the cost to rebuild grew 1.51 per cent last year. Among the provinces, Alberta and Saskatchewan posted the highest average increases at 3.3 and 2.49 per cent, respectively. Only Ontario reported a decrease in average reconstruction costs.

Xactware is a leading provider of claims estimating technology and pricing data services for the property insurance and restoration industries.

At the beginning of each year, Xactware issues a report summarizing major claims and construction trends in the Canadian property industry. Information contained in the reports is compiled by Xactware’s in-house team of pricing experts, which has more than 500 years of combined construction and restoration experience.

During 2011, the pricing team conducted more than 4,500 material and equipment surveys and about 5,900 labour and installation surveys to ensure a high degree of reliability in reported values for the Canadian market. The pricing team analyzed more than 240,000 data points from repair and rebuild estimates to compile the information contained in Xactware’s 2011 Property Report for Canada.

In addition to details about reconstruction trends, the property report contains these findings:

    the total number of property claim estimates processed by Xactware in 2011
    the average value of property claim estimates by month and by loss type
    trends for common building materials, such as lumber, drywall, and shingles
    a report on the difference between a home’s replacement value and its market value
    the growing prominence of green building materials and techniques in Canada

“Reconstruction cost trends and claims activity last year perfectly illustrates the changing nature of the Canadian property industry,” said Mike Fulton, Xactware’s AVP of Pricing Data Services. “The 2011 Property Report is a great resource that can give anyone a better understanding of last year that will serve them throughout 2012.”

Visit the Xactware Online Store to order a copy of the 2011 Property Report for Canada today.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) February 05, 2012

CETERIS®, a global consulting firm that provides transfer pricing expertise along with strategic economic analysis and valuation services, announced today that Andrew Sliwa, Ceteris’ Energy Sector Leader, has formalized Ceteris’ presence in Houston with the opening of the firm’s Houston office. Andrew leads the firm’s Energy practice and provides transfer pricing and valuation services focused on the unique circumstances of energy sector multi-nationals, with particular focus on the oil and gas sector.

“Andy has been working alongside our clients for several years in the Houston market and has done an excellent job growing Ceteris’ presence in the Energy sector” said Mike Heimert, CEO and Founder of CETERIS.

“Our decision to formalize our presence in Houston was based on careful consideration of market needs. It is clear that clients have become much more sophisticated with regard to transfer pricing matters. In fact, numerous clients in today’s environment have internal teams that handle many of the transfer pricing needs of the company. As a result, we believe clients prefer to work with advisors that can handle their most complex issues and are extremely responsive in doing so,” Andrew Sliwa stated.

“We certainly are seeing an increase in the level of scrutiny around how energy sector multinationals set and implement their transfer pricing policies, especially those dealing with the provision of technical services and use of technology and know-how,” Sliwa added. “The reality is, many companies in this sector have fared quite well in recent years by taking on more challenging projects, such as deepwater. However, the more challenging projects require increased cross-border collaboration and knowledge sharing among the skilled scientists and engineers within these multinational groups. That fact has elevated the profile of the multinationals in the eyes of many tax authorities,” noted Sliwa.

“As a result, clients are seeking someone that understands the dynamics of the Energy sector and can assist them with their issues. We know that there is a growing need in this sector and I am proud of the fact that the depth and breadth of our operational, financial, and economic expertise allows us to assemble the best team to respond to individual client needs with a relentless sense of urgency,” Sliwa stated.

About Ceteris

Recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest growing private companies in America for the past four years, CETERIS® is a global economic consulting firm providing transfer pricing expertise along with strategic economic analysis and valuation services to the largest multinational companies, top-ranked law firms, and government agencies around the world.

The offer is available exclusively to guests booking lodging at the Gondola Resorts website.

Breckenridge celebrates their 50th anniversary season this year, with celebrations and special events planned over the course of the ski season, in addition to signature annual events like the Winter Dew Tour and the month-long Spring Fever festival.

Melville, NY (PRWEB) January 28, 2012

Kevin Kelly, President of BigBuzz Communications, has been selected as a Celebrity Boxer for the 2012 Long Island Fight For Charity being held on March 5, 2012.

The annual event, which is in its ninth year, has become known as one of Long Island’s largest and most anticipated events. Each year, more than 1,000 individuals gather to support our Celebrity Boxers, who have trained, fundraised and put on their gloves to fight for charity. Kevin is joining a long list of past boxers who have helped to distribute more than $ 700,000 to charities since the event’s inception.

“At BigBuzz, we strongly believe in paying it forward and have partnered with many local, national and global charities,” said Kelly. “I wanted to take part in making a positive change right here on Long Island and this seems like a really exciting way to do so.”

The Long Island Fight For Charity provides all the training, equipment and USA Boxing forms. Celebrity Boxers are required to raise a minimum of $ 5,000 through sponsorship packages and journal ads.

“We are really thrilled that Kevin is joining us as a 2012 Celebrity Boxer,” said Jamie Austin, co-founder of the Long Island Fight For Charity. “Our Celebrity Boxers are an integral part of the event and we look forward to working very closely with our 2012 boxers to make this the best year to date.”

Perhaps the most impressive feature, almost unbelievable, is the Remote Camera functionality. As if by magic, the revolutionary app allows remote live recording of up to eight iOS devices, each contributing shots from different angles or locations simultaneously. Video Camera syncs the video from “Player” devices over WiFi to the “Stage” device, for viewing, switching cameras angles, recording and editing, all on-the-fly.
