USO Honors Our Nations Healing Heroes with Support of 2012 Warrior Games

Written on May 5, 2012 at 7:51 pm, by


Arlington, VA (PRWEB) May 03, 2012

The USO returns for a third straight year as a proud sponsor of the 2012 Warrior Games held in Colorado Springs, Colorado. This week long annual Olympic-style athletic competition for wounded, ill and injured service men and women from all branches of the military is a highlight of the USO catalog of support provided to our nations healing heroes and their caregivers.

The Warrior Games is an opportunity for the USO to demonstrate our commitment to supporting our nations healing heroes and their families, said Sloan Gibson, USO President. The USO supported them during their service at home and overseas and we will continue to be there for them as they transition to civilian society. The dedication and determination of these modern warriors is an inspiration to us all.

In addition to supporting the games and competing athletes, USO volunteers from the local Rocky Mountain USO handed out boxed lunches as well as hot sandwiches to the athletes and family members during todays shooting competition held at the U.S. Olympic Training Facility. The USO Mobile has also been onsite throughout the games to support athletes and their families with snacks, beverages and a support sign station for fans to make signs for their favorite athletes.

Many people associate the USO with support for our nations forward deployed troops- through our entertainment tours and our nine centers located throughout Afghanistan, said Susan Thomas, VP, Warrior and Family Care. Support for those deployed troops and our nations military families is paramount, but the USO also sees a huge need to support our returning warriors as they transition to civilian society. Our support for events like Warrior Games as well as other our other initiatives and partnerships like those that provide wounded with the tools to successfully transition to the civilian workforce and our support for the caregivers is also so vital to the ability for these healing heroes to generate hope for the future.

The event, organized and led by the U.S. Olympic Committee, is also supported by the Department of Defense, Deloitte, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, the Fisher House Foundation, the Daniels Fund, AT&T, BP, DeVry, Anheuser Busch and Chobani.

220 wounded, ill and injured service men and women from the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, Special Operations Command, and United Kingdom Armed Forces will compete in events such as archery, cycling, wheelchair basketball, shooting, swimming, track & field and sitting volleyball. Athletes with disabilities including – amputations, spinal cord injuries, post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury (this category also includes cerebral palsy and stroke) are eligible. Earlier in the year, participants competed in order to be selected by each individual branch of service on an invitation-only basis based on disability. For more information about USO programs to support our nations wounded, ill and injured and their families and caregivers visit http://www.uso.org/warriorandfamilycare.

Jim Shields of State Farm has been a big community supporter for over 20 years, sponsoring many causes in the Charlotte and Matthews area, including the Special Olympics, Youth Leagues, YMCA programs, as well as coaching softball and basketball teams at Matthews Athletic and Recreation Association. Miles Against Melanoma was chosen this year to help raise awareness and to help fund research, as no one is immune to Melanoma.

Heather Joyner, creator of the Miles Against Melanoma NC Chapter, said, Miles Against Melanoma NC would like to thank the Jim Shields State Farm Insurance office for their support. Their contribution will help us achieve our goal of increasing melanoma awareness and raising funds for research.

She had surgery to remove the lymph nodes from the surrounding area and she was in remission for over 10 years until it came back in her lungs and eventually took her life. Amy was only 30 years old when she died. Miles Against Melanoma NC is dedicated to raising the public’s awareness of melanoma and raising funds for research so no one else will have to suffer like Amy.

State Farm encourages the community to go to the Miles Against Melanoma website for more details on how to get involved and participate in the event. Please stop by State Farms table during the event to support the agency supporting this cause.

The event takes place on April 28, 2012 at the Arboretum Shopping Center at the corner of Hwy 51 & Providence Road.

Sunset Announces the Winners of the 2012 Environmental Awards, Honoring the People and Organizations Fighting to Preserve the Wests Most Special Places

Written on February 19, 2012 at 7:51 pm, by


Menlo Park, CA (PRWEB) February 16, 2012

Sunset magazine announces the winners of its 2012 Environmental Awards in the pages of its March issue. These awards celebrate the achievements of the people and organizations that are fighting to keep the West at its most pristine and beautiful. Best of all, nearly all of the award-winning lands can be visited by the public right now.

The projects and people we honor this year are outstanding in every way, said Peter Fish, Sunset editor-at-large. We received massive amounts of emails nominating candidates and almost all were very good, so it was a difficult choice.

Sunset editors searched the West for the winners, concentrating on newly protected land. Awards were given in categories such as Best Wild Kingdom, which celebrates one of the nations biggest private conservation land purchases, Best Shoreline, and Capital of Green, which was awarded to Washingtons Olympic Peninsula for two separate projects that preserve beautiful rivers and forests. The magazines editors and an esteemed panel of judges also honor Education Programs and Visitor Centers helping to promote ongoing interaction with and appreciation of the environment.

The recession has had a silver lining when it comes to the environment, continued Fish, who served as one of the award programs judges. Land development and competition from real estate developers is down, meaning that land trusts have a better chance of obtaining and protecting land.

And the winners are:


????BEST SHORELINE:
Devils Head, WA

????BEST LOCAL LAND TRUST:
McDowell Sonoran Conservancy, Phoenix/Scottsdale, AZ

????BEST VISITOR CENTER:
Gateway to the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, Scottsdale, AZ

????BEST WILD KINGDOM:
Montana Legacy Project, MT

????BEST EDUCATION PROGRAM:
Wildlands Conservancy, Southern California

????BEST LAKE:
Independence Lake, near Truckee, CA

????BEST ADDITION TO A NATIONAL PARK:
Rancho Corral de Tierra, San Mateo County, CA

????BEST RANCHLAND:
Sommers-Grindstone Conservation Project, Pinedale, WY

????BEST CAPITAL OF GREEN:
Washingtons Olympic Peninsula

Two individuals were also honored for their solo efforts in preservation: Audrey Rust of Silicon Valleys Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) received the Hero: Lifetime Achievement award, while Mauis Scott Fisher, director of conservation for the Hawaiian Islands Land Trust, was recognized as Hero: 40 & Under.

A full profile of the winners can be found on page 72 of the March issue of Sunset magazine and http://www.sunset.com.

The judging panel also included Jon Christensen, executive director of the Bill Lane Center for the American West at Stanford University; Brian Kahn, host of Montana Public Radios Home Ground and author of Real Common Sense; and Jenny Price, a research scholar at the UCLA Center for the Study of Women, an environmental historian and one of the founders of Los Angeles Urban Rangers.

Campaign for Disability Employment Announces Nationwide Video Contest

Written on January 31, 2012 at 7:51 pm, by

Washington, DC (PRWEB) January 31, 2012

Today, the Campaign for Disability Employment (CDE), a collaboration by leading disability and business organizations funded by the U.S. Department of Labors Office of Disability Employment Policy (ODEP), announced the launch of its second nationwide video contest to promote the talent and skills that people with disabilities bring to Americas workforce and economy. A follow-up to a similar contest held in 2009, this years competition seeks videos in several categories to supplement the CDEs award-winning What can YOU do? public education efforts.

Every day, people with disabilities can and do add value to Americas workplaces and economy. However, in both good economic times and bad, people with disabilities have far fewer job opportunities than the general population. Built around a coordinated outreach effort titled What can YOU do?, the CDE promotes the hiring, retention and advancement of people with disabilities through public service announcements, educational materials and other grass-roots outreach activities.????

Our video contest is an opportunity for filmmakers of all ages to convey positive messages about the value people with disabilities add to the workforce and to help viewers re-think their negative assumptions about people with disabilities in the workforce, said Tracie Saab, Campaign for Disability Employment project director. Its their chance to drive positive change by illustrating that at work, its what people CAN do that matters.????

About the What can YOU do? Video Contest

The CDE is looking for creative, fun, compelling videos of all genres that reflect the diversity of skills that people with disabilities offer, challenge misconceptions about disability and employment, and/or highlight employers inclusive employment programs and practices. The CDE will recognize winners in up to three specific categories (General Public, Youth and Employer), and the public will be encouraged to select a Peoples Choice winner.

The deadline for entry is March 30, 2012. Videos should be one to three minutes in length (depending on the category entered) and reflect one or more of the campaigns key themes, which are outlined on the contest website, http://www.WhatCanYouDoCampaign.org/videocontest.

Individual and group entries are encouraged. Applicants must be U.S. citizens to enter.

Winners will receive a chance to participate in the CDEs public outreach activities, and several selected videos may be showcased on the campaigns website and at future CDE events. Other prizes may be awarded. More information and the official contest rules are outlined on the competition website.

About the Campaign for Disability Employment

The Campaign for Disability Employment (CDE) is a collaborative effort among several disability and business organizations that seek to promote positive employment outcomes for people with disabilities by encouraging employers and others to recognize the value and talent they bring to the workplace, as well as the dividend to be realized by fully including people with disabilities at work. These partners include: American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD); Job Accommodation Network (JAN); National Business and Disability Council (NBDC); National Council of La Raza (NCLR); National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC); Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM); Special Olympics (SO); and the U.S. Business Leadership Network (USBLN).

MVS Predicts Extremely Volatile Year in Financial Markets

Written on January 12, 2012 at 7:51 pm, by

Darien, CT (PRWEB) January 11, 2012

In the letter, posted on the Darien-based Investment Firm’s website, Mr.Olympitis points out that the firm views four themes as directing the behavior of the markets in the coming year: The crisis in Europe, the behavior of fixed income markets, unsustainable government and consumer borrowing and the US Election.

The firm sees a downside of around 900 on the S&P 500 on the “very real scenario of a default within the Euro Zone”, but predicts that such an episode would “spur Germany into action” on issuing Euro Bonds and that markets would recover most of their losses steadily over the proceeding months if that were to happen.

Other takeaways from the letter include worries about the “equity-like performance expectations” in the bond market and the argument that only a Republican sweep in all three elected branches of government would be a net positive for the financial markets.

A full text of the letter is available at:
