Berkeley, CA Dentist Phillip Saddler Offers Bonding and White Filling at Saddler Family Dentistry

(PRBuzz) January 14, 2013 -- Cracks, gaps, and decay can all have an effect on how confident you feel with your smile. In the past, these imperfections could be covered using a crown or a filling. However, these restorations generally involved the use of metal amalgam. This would result in a highly noticeable and unaesthetic restoration. Metal amalgam would also increase sensitivity to hot and cold substances, putting the tooth at risk of developing cracks as the metal natural contracted and expanded. Dr. Phillip Saddler offers an alternative to conventional metal fillings. Bonding and white filling is used at Saddler Family Dentistry, providing Berkeley, CA patients with a more aesthetically pleasing and comfortable restorative solution.

Bonding and white filling is used to correct periodontal health problems and cosmetic issues. It is often used to fill cavities, fill in gaps, and repair cracks. Unlike metal amalgam, the material used for bonding and white filling is made of a white, composite resin. This provides patients with a cosmetic advantage over conventional amalgam restorations. The color of the bonding and white filling blends in with the surface of the tooth and they are virtually undetectable. The material also doesn't discolor over time. This leaves Berkeley, CA patients with a long lasting solution that can even be used in highly visible parts of the smile.

This solution is also highly versatile when compared to fillings or crowns. They are affixed directly to the restoration site with a special adhesive gel and don't require much modification of the existing tooth structure. The entire bonding process also provides a more stable and secure smile solution. Dr. Phillip Saddler's patients have been thrilled with the results of their procedures. Bonding and white fillings don't only address current smile improvements, but Dr. Phillip Saddler can also replace old fillings at Saddler Family Dentistry for a more aesthetically pleasing look.

(PRBuzz) January 14, 2013 -- With the "Fresh Start" program offering more relief for those buried under back taxes, Platinum Tax Defenders urges taxpayers to take advantage of an IRS payment plan after consultation with a tax resolution specialist.

Early in 2012, the IRS announced more penalty relief for those burdened with back taxes, especially the unemployed. The "Fresh Start" initiative was expanded to include relief for those who had suffered unemployment for 30 days or more, waiving 'failure-to-pay' penalties. Thresholds were doubled for those eligible for payment plans. Some low income earners and certain self-employed workers are allowed a six-month grace period without penalties. Platinum Tax Defenders urges taxpayers to consult a tax resolution specialist and take advantage of these relaxed requirements.

Certain strictures still apply for IRS payment plans. It may be essential to obtain help with back taxes. One stricture for an IRS payment plan is that each of the prior six years' returns must be filed before an agreement can be reached. Payment timing also depends on the payment amount and the amount owed. For taxpayers owing $10,000 or less, 36 months is the maximum time frame to make payment in full. (Also, taxpayers owing less than $10,000 may or may not qualify for penalty abatement, in which case there may be good reason to obtain professional tax resolution services.) Taxpayers owing more than $10,000 and less than $25,000 are eligible for a streamlined IRS payment plan, in which collections are waived so that reduced-interest payments can be made timely.

The "Fresh Start" initiative, one of the payment plan options, is eligible for those owing more than $25,000 but less than $50,000, with an expanded time frame of 72 months, and penalty abatement as a possibility after certain good faith payments have been met. 'Failure-to-pay' penalties, beginning at half of 1% and peaking at 25%, can be waived by those unemployed for a consecutive 30 days, but only for singles grossing $100,000 or married filers who have earned $200,000 annually, or less. Self-employed workers who prove a 25% reduction in business due to economic instability are also eligible for penalty relief. However, Platinum Tax Defenders notes that proving eligibility for unemployment or reduction in self-employment income can be difficult, and obtaining back tax help can be an essential element in avoiding penalties.

Platinum Tax Defenders especially urges those owing more than $50,000 in back taxes to consult with a tax expert. IRS payment plans at this level require full financial disclosure and negotiations on payment amounts, along with possible tax liens and collection actions. The 3% annual interest on unpaid back taxes becomes especially painful for taxpayers owing more than $50,000.

Platinum Tax Defenders offers a free consultation on tax resolution services by phone, without further obligation, so that taxpayers can be informed of their rights and possible solutions. Platinum Tax Defenders has a dedicated team of 10 professionals (including tax attorneys, CPA's and former IRS agents) with a ten-year track record of stopping bank levies and removing tax liens. Most initial consultations range from 20 to 45 minutes, in which a qualified tax resolution professional can examine the specifics of the situation and offer strategies for dealing with the IRS.

(PRBuzz) January 14, 2013 -- Weight management problems and obesity are common, serious and costly reality in many Americans lives, 35.7% of American adults are suffering from obesity. Men and women seem to be affected by this phenomenon and also weight lost programs differently.

Obesity is hight proportion of total body fat. When a person is 20% or more above normal weight he/she is considered to be obese. The most common measure of obesity is the body mass index or BMI. A person is considered overweight if his or her BMI is between 25 and 29.9; a person is considered obese if his or her BMI is over 30. Obesity is a common, serious and costly reality in many Americans lives. More than 1/3 (35.7%) of American adults are said to be suffering from obesity. Men and women seem to be affected by this phenomenon and also weight lost programs differently. Among non-Hispanic black men and Mexican-American men, those with higher incomes are more likely to be obese than those with low income. But in women these statistics are reversed, women with higher income are less likely to be obese than low-income women.

There is no significant relationship between obesity and education among men. With women, however, there is a trend--those with college degrees are less likely to be obese compared with less educated women.

In 1998 the estimated medical costs of obesity were as high as $78.5 billion, and Medicare and Medicaid financed approximately half of that in different categories for inpatient, non-inpatient, and prescription drug spending. By 2006 obesity was responsible for almost $40 billion of increased medical spending, including $7 billion in Medicare prescription drug costs. And by 2008 the medical spending increased roughly $147 billion per year.

What surgical options are used to treat obesity?
Weight loss surgeries such as LAPBAND®, can help treat obesity.

Dr. Madan encourages his patients to start by adopting a healthier and more active lifestyle before considering surgical procedures. However when patients are overweight by at least 30 pounds and suffering from one or more obesity related conditions, LAPBAND® System may be a good choice to help patients lose weight, Dr. Madan believes that its critical for his patients to avoid weight-related health risks, and learn to lead and enjoy a more active lifestyle.

"You should only consider surgical treatment for weight loss if you: Have a BMI of 40 or higher, or have a BMI of 35 or higher and weight-related health problems, or have not had success with other weight-loss methods," says Dr. Madan.

The LAPBAND® Adjustable Gastric Banding System is the first U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved adjustable gastric band for use in weight reduction.

The Lap-Band System® and Realize Band, both silicone gastric bands, offer unique benefits compared to other weight loss surgeries. In this procedure a band is placed around the upper stomach to create a small pouch and narrow passage into the rest of the stomach. This limits the amount of food that can be consumed. The size of the band can be adjusted and a surgeon can remove the band if needed. Gastric Banding is a minimally invasive approach that does not require cutting or stapling of the stomach or gastrointestinal re-routing. The LAPBAND® and Realize Band can both be adjusted to fit each individual needs in just one doctor visit.

Dr. Atul Madan, graduated from Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, later received his medical degree at the Medical College of Pennsylvani, he has published numerous medical publications. Throughout his career, Dr. Atul Madan has received numerous awards and honors, in addition to having committee positions at various places including American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, Society of American Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Surgeons. He has also been on the editorial boards of Bariatric Nursing and Surgical Patient Care, Obesity Surgery, Society of American Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Surgeons Academic Career Development Seminar.

Throughout his career, Dr. Madan has performed thousands of surgeries and has a list of clients that have enjoyed high quality medical treatment.

(PRBuzz.com) January 16, 2013 -- The Houston West Loop Marriott plays host again January 2013 to speakers from around the nation and the world. Twice a year Jonathan Sprinkles, a resident of Houston, TX, hosts a four day series to educate and inspire other speakers to make the connection with their audiences.

People attend the conference to learn how to become a motivational speaker and get coaching on how to build their business by someone who is very experienced at both and he is still doing it. Jonathan Sprinkles also will share how he overcame stage fright and a stuttering problem to become a successful speaker and speaking consultant. Mr. Sprinkles uses his experience to illustrate to his students that it is more important to connect with people, rather than come across as being perfect. He teaches that connection is key because people won't hear you until the "know" you.

Houston has seen a great deal of growth in the number of speakers coming to speak at both local and national events. In the current economy, many companies are shifting towards bringing in speakers who are an authority in their specific fields to help them make improvements across the company itself. As part of the growth in this particular market, Houston has also seen further disparity between speakers who make a connection like a rock start and get rebooked again and again, and the speakers who still need to learn how to become a motivational speaker and only get booked once and then never again. As with all professions, the speaking industry is seeing the best rise to the top and set themselves apart as the outliers.

Jonathan Sprinkles helps bring all of this into focus, not only for speakers who are looking to expand their business in Houston, but also for those who are looking to speak to audiences and businesses across the United States.

(PRBuzz.com) January 16, 2013 -- London is a city unlike any other and moving there can be something of a culture shock. While England and the USA share many similarities there are also a large number of differences that catch many people unawares. To make the transition a little easier London Relocation has created a brief guide to etiquette and behavior in the Big Smoke.

While England is part of the EU it is best to avoid referring to it as being European. Also understanding the difference between England and the rest of the UK is essential. Referring to Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish people as being English will not go down well.

The old saying about an Englishman's home being is castle is just as true now as it ever was. Do not be surprised then if you find yourself being invited to go to the pub much more often than to someone's home. Queuing is something of a national pastime and queue jumping is something that is definitely frowned upon. Wait patiently in line even if it looks the queue is not going anywhere fast.

Cars and homes in London and the UK in general tend to be much smaller than those found in the US. Pointing this out and making fun of the fact will likely be deemed to be offensive and crass. While adjusting the customs and habits of Londoners can take some time finding somewhere to stay is easy with help from London Relocation. They guarantee to place 100% of their clients and offer a fully comprehensive service for finding the best London apartments for rent for those moving to London from the US.

Denver, Colorado (PRBuzz.com) January 16, 2013 -- Outspoken Media's Online Reputation Management Guide provides a great deal of useful information about internet reputation management. Whether an individual has been the target of internet slander or details of an ugly divorce have been made public, the reputation of one's presence on the internet can be detrimental if it is negative. Furthermore, the negative effects of bad online reviews for a business can be extremely harmful. The internet is an open forum, and, essentially, anyone can say anything.

Outspoken Media informs its readers of pertinent information relating to the increasingly popular topic of internet reputation management. InternetReputation.com reviewed the guide in an attempt to provide the public with more information in greater detail.

In response to Outspoken Media's suggestion that people track their internet reputation through various tools such as a feed reader or Google Alerts, InternetReputation.com recognizes that certain situations call for much more. Depending on the severity of a situation, it might be in a person or company's best interest to hire a professional to bury the problem.

In review, InternetReputation.com agrees with Outspoken Media's suggestion to become as active as possible on social media sites, as well as use social media management tools such as HootSuite, Easy Tweets, Ping.fm, or Atom Keep. While these are all worthwhile tasks that people and businesses can do on their own, without hiring an internet reputation management company, InternetReputation.com knows that, sometimes, a problem can become worse if it's not handled by a professional.

InternetReputation.com spokesperson reviewed the guide by stating, "There is a great deal of time and knowledge involved in the process of eliminating negative content on the internet. Outspoken Media's guide acts as a useful source of information, but in order to see measurable results in a short period of time, InternetReputation.com suggests that a professional internet reputation management company be used."

While InternetReputation.com commended Outspoken Media's guide in their review, they want the public to be aware that there are, indeed, professional services out there that that will work to eliminate harmful content through the use of groundbreaking SEO strategies, SEP professionals, experienced journalists, professional programmers, and expert search engine analysts. When time is of the essence, and negative content is largely affecting a client's personal life or business, it is often a welcomed relief to hire an internet reputation management firm like InternetReputation.com. They offer the removal of arrest records, internet slander or defamation, harmful press releases or news articles, negative online reviews, and more.

About:

(PRBuzz.com) January 16, 2013 -- With an appropriate and easy to remember phone number, various businesses get a boost. This has been determined by 1300 Easydial. The owner of a business simply needs to choose the correct phone number name before a trader of the same business does so.

Once the best phone number name has been decided, an application needs to be worked upon to get access of the phone world. Having followed the above mentioned steps, the businessman has nothing to worry about anything other than receiving calls from his clients.

Travis Fitzpatrick of Focus Fitness had commented that "in only 2 months of operating with 1300FOCUSFIT we have received over 100 calls. I believe these are over and above our normal phone calls."

Phone words have immense advantages for its users:

1. They can be easily remembered. A customer when remembers the company's number will easily have access to a business thus making him a frequent client of a particular brand.

2. Once a license has been purchased from Easydial, then a company has complete rights to the phone word it has chosen. Then the postcodes do not matter. Even if the clients are calling from any part of the country, their call is transferred through the prevailing telephone line.

3. Another thing is, marketing through advertisements or any form of electronic media is costly. Through 1300 numbers, a brand can easily make itself attain success by getting a perfect phone number for itself by paying a small amount of money.

4. Once a phone word has been taken by a company, other competitors of that company have a disadvantage. Getting the phone number of a company's choice proves to be of a great advantage as owning a number that is hard to remember may result in the loss of clients of a brand.

5. A simple and easy to use phone word can be recommended to others more easily.

Australians are unfamiliar with the concept of phone names. Phone number name is basically a phone number that spells out the company name of a particular business. Now, the cost of issuing the license for phone number names has been reduced so that small businesses can even have access to them. Earlier only huge companies could have their phone number names, but now the barrier has been removed.

Surveys suggest that through the use of phone words, a business can have an increase in the number of phone calls it receives by 300% giving the business a complete breakthrough in the market.
