Renowned Author And Historian Stan Klos To Appear At 'March On Washington DC 2010'

Renowned Author And Historian Stan Klos To Appear At 'March On Washington DC 2010'

Author, historian, professor, essayist, and 1994 Contract With America US Senate Nominee Stan Klos will address the 'March On Washington DC 2010' crowd on September 9, 2010. The subject of his address will be '13 Ways To Restore US Prosperity'

Palm Harbor, FL (PRWEB) September 8, 2010

On September 9, 2010, Stan Klos will take the stage at the 'March On Washington DC 2010' event. The subject of his address will include '13 Historic Ways To Restore US Prosperity'.

It is a fact that most Americans believe the USA is experiencing tough times unlike any suffered in recent history. A high percentage of Americans feel that recovery may not be possible. Eminent historian and 1994 Senate Nominee Stan Klos holds a different point of view and a more optimistic perspective. He will offer his views at the historic 'March On Washington DC 2010' event to be held September 9 through September 12 in Washington DC. Klos does not offer mere opinions. In his latest book 'Economic Home Runs: Effective US Historic Solutions To Current American Challenges', he offers 13 very specific ways to restore US prosperity.

"Today," Klos stated, "with the federal debt soaring, off shore oil exploration in doubt, real estate foreclosures at an all time high and Europe slipping on Greece, the United States is facing dire economic and governmental challenges. Many Americans doubt America can recover and believe the United States is in a state of rapid decline. I disagree and offer 13 Historic Ways to Restore US prosperity. The Santayana quotation that "those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it" implies that we can learn from the past to avoid errors. This book has taken the positive step of looking to the road map of American history for guidance in choosing the right path to economic and political prosperity."

In a recent press release, a spokesman for the Washington DC event organizers stated: "With the November 2nd elections just 7 weeks from the September 2010 event, the timing could not be better. Once again Americans from every corner of the nation will unite on Capitol Hill for a nonpartisan march and rally. This year there will be no doubt this is a "We the People, For the People, By the People" event. Not one dime will be accepted from corporate sponsors, PAC's, political parties or political organizations. All of our board members have a complete understanding that they will not receive any remuneration for their services."

"The equally well known quotation," Klos continued, "from Ecclesiastes 'What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun' applies to our current economic troubles. Our American forefathers faced unimaginably greater difficulties then we do today. Their struggles, successes, and the solutions achieved over the last 200-years provide us with 20/20 foresight; if only we look in the rear view mirror."

"The citizens are not at a loss on what to do; they just lost their voice in the House of Representatives to enact common sense solutions to end special interest government. The States are not at a loss on what to do; they just lost their voice in the U. S. Senate to free themselves of unfunded federal mandates and burdensome federal laws that challenge the sovereignty they were bequeathed under the 10th Amendment. This book is a must read for anyone concerned about the direction of the United States and is looking for solutions to restore American Prosperity."

The 2010 Event will take place from the 9th - 12th of September. The "official" web site for the event is located at www. MarchOnDC. org. Mr. Klos' presentation with be at 3:00pm, September 9, 2010, Omni Shoreham Hotel, Washington, DC. Stan Klos is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below or by email using the contact information below. Autographed first edition copies of 'Economic Home Runs: Effective US Historic Solutions To Current American Challenges' are available at www. EconomicHomeRuns. com.

$1000 for a Joke?

(PRWEB) November 10, 1999

GoAce. com Announces the Release of

ACE Talking Jokes & Quotes

SAN DIEGO – November 1, 1999 – GoAce. com announced its newest release, ACE Talking Jokes & Quotes, which features Microsoft Agent animated cartoon characters that pop-up on the screen and recite hilarious jokes, and famous quotes. In addition, TJ&Q proof reads your letters, tests your vocabulary, helps your children study for tests, reminds you to be on time for important events, and announces the time by reading the message you want on the half hour. Talking Jokes & Quotes can be downloaded from the ACE website at no charge – www. goace. com

It’s easy to customize the movements and speech patterns of the nine animated Microsoft Agent cartoon characters. You can make them smile, look sad, uncertain, surprised, etc., and modify their speech characteristics, which include voice inflections, pauses, pitches and speed changes. Excite your creative juices with the challenging game of making your favorite cartoon character read, and act out quotes and jokes in your own style.

Email your customized jokes to friends and win prize money by submitting them to the ACE website. After you download the best new jokes, (quotes, vocabulary tests, trivia questions, spelling tests, etc.) from the ACE website, Talking Jokes & Quotes automatically appends them into your extensive database. Did you forget the great jokes you heard yesterday? Now you have a place to keep them. (Includes password protection so children cannot read adult jokes, or children can hide adult jokes from their parents.)

In addition to an endless supply of jokes, you can listen to famous quotes from Shakespeare, Dickens, Mark Twain, and the sage of sages, Yogi Berra. These quotes are sure to add to your knowledge and you can impress your friends by repeating these pearls of wisdom. How many famous quotes do you know? It’s easy to test yourself and your children. For example, who wrote? “Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.” Yes, Shakespeare, but from what play were these famous words uttered? (Julius Caesar).

Not only is Talking Jokes & Quotes entertaining and educational, but it also has a very practical use.

Students and business people will love Talking Jokes & Quotes, because it is a useful business tool and study aid. Tired of proof reading that letter over and over? If you hear a letter or article read to you, it’s easier to find omitted words and poor sentence structure. So sit back, relax, and take a sip of coffee, while the cartoon character reads your letter, book report, or essay.

Students can use Talking Jokes & Quotes to learn spelling, vocabulary, and study for that important history test. They are sure to absorb more when they listen to the character repeatedly ask a question, and then give the answer.

In addition to reading jokes and quotes, Talking Jokes & Quotes functions as an alarm clock, but in a far more entertaining manner. A cartoon figure pops up on the screen and reads the reminder, which the user typed into the message line. Never again forget to run an errand, make a call, or be late for an appointment.

ACE JF&Q is similar to a classic grandfather clock, in that, instead of

Chiming on the hour, the cartoon character pops up, reads your message,

And announces the time: every 15 minutes, half hour, or hour. Again, you have a chance to build your self-esteem by customizing it to say, “Dudette, it looks like another good hair day, you’re looking better every minute, the time is 12 noon.”

Talking Jokes & Quotes reads only what you type, so you can build your self-confidence everyday, every hour, or if you really are desperate, every five minutes. Just like a lovable pet, the cartoon characters will become your faithful computer companion.

Talking Jokes & Quotes is free on the ACE web site www. goace. com and a Free CD is available with all the ACE programs (there is a shipping and handling charge). Another GoAce. com program, ACE Talking Email, will be released next month.

Designed to work on Windows 95, 98 & NT (with a CE version due out shortly), Talking Jokes & Quotes will also minimize to the system tray and will pop up on the screen at the scheduled time.

Financial Solutions Company Offers Help To Debt-Ridden America

Financial Solutions Company Offers Help To Debt-Ridden America

UCan2 Opportunity, Inc. offers education, financial services, and opportunity to help families become debt-free and financially healthy.

Ft Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) March 24, 2005

As you probably know, America is more in debt today than it has ever been before. In fact, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, consumer debt last year equaled almost two trillion dollars. This debt translates to some $18,700 per US household, and it doesn't include home mortgages.

People like Marco Carbajo observed this frightening trend and decided to do something about it. He and his partners founded UCan2 Opportunity, Inc., a cooperative marketing company offering financial solution services. "Our mission," says Carbajo, "is to provide comprehensive financial solutions and services to individuals and families. We want to bring them a level of financial security they thought they'd never see again...without declaring bankruptcy."

UCan2 aims to help families and individuals achieve financial independence with their honesty, integrity, and dignity intact. They fulfill this mission through three different methods: education, financial solutions, and business opportunity.

The founders of UCan2 are some of the leading cooperative marketing experts and highly experienced professionals on debt management, debt negotiations, debt settlement, tax relief and credit enhancement.

UCan2 represents a family of financial services companies that help their clients resolve financial debt problems through innovative financial solutions. But more importantly, the organization understands the importance of education. "We give clients an opportunity to change the way they view money," says Carbajo, "so they don't duplicate the bad decisions of the past. We believe UCan2 is making a significant contribution to helping create a new financial mindset in America."

By way of opportunity, the company has recently launched their new Independent Debt Consultant program. "We want to welcome consultants to become part of the team," says Carbajo. "All someone needs to succeed as a consultant is the desire to achieve, and a willingness to help others free themselves of debt."

UCan2 also just launched their certified mortgage agent program which allows consultants to offer mortgages in 42 states across the country for single family purchase, investment property, or refinances. "By offering a total financial solution package we are able to help others achieve the American dream of home ownership," Carbajo points out.

Sex Over Sense: Sex Survey Shows 1 in 3 Polled Would Have Sex with Someone Who Refused STD Testing

Sex Over Sense: Sex Survey Shows 1 in 3 Polled Would Have Sex with Someone Who Refused STD Testing

Survey finds that Americans are still engaging in risky unprotected sex and that women are twice as likely as men to ask a new partner to get STD testing.

Chicago (Vocus) March 3, 2010

STD Test Express (http://www. stdtestexpress. com), a service dedicated to educating and testing people for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), announced today the results of their annual survey of sexually active Americans.

The survey found that 1 in 3 respondents will still engage in sexual intercourse with someone who refused to take an STD test after being asked – even though a majority of those polled acknowledge “they shouldn’t”.

“It was surprising to see how many people are willing to move forward in a sexual relationship with a partner that refuses to get STD testing,” said Michelle Sobel, co-founder of Analyte Media, publisher of STDTestExpress. com. “They know they shouldn’t engage in risky sexual behavior but they admit they still do – it’s really indicative of the need for more education and more ready access to STD testing (http://www. stdtestexpress. com).”

Intimate Inconsistency
An astounding 20 percent of respondents admitted they would go ahead with potentially life-threatening sexual behavior even though they “know better”. And while only 5 percent of respondents said they have been asked to get STD tested, twelve times as many (60 percent) said they would “definitely ask” a potential partner to get STD tested.

“When you see numbers like this you really have to wonder about the disconnect between intention and reality,” said Sobel, “What this survey really shows us is that sexually active Americans are taking risks with their sexual health every day,”

Women More Likely to Get Tested
The survey also found that 73 percent of women said they were more likely to ask their partner to get tested compared to only 36 percent of men. Half of men surveyed also said they would still have sex with a partner that refused to get STD tested versus 70 percent of women who said they would refuse to have sex with that person.

“What is encouraging about this data is that women appear more willing to get tested and encourage their partner to do the same,” Sobel said. “For both women and men across the county, STDTestExpress. com connects patients online with qualified physicians to provide STD testing and follow-up care - privately, quickly, and affordably.”

About STD Test Express
STD Test Express™ is the leader in Online Care for private STD testing and is the only service to provide free phone consultation with physicians for results counseling and follow-up care. The American Social Health Association (ASHA) endorses STD Test Express for its positive messaging about sexually transmitted diseases and sexual health. Learn more about this innovative service at www. stdtestexpress. com and the Unzipped blog for cutting edge information about sexual health at http://blog. stdtestexpress. com/ (http://blog. stdtestexpress. com/).
