Safe-Direct Car Shipping Explains Auto Transport Quotes











Safe Car Direct

(PRWEB) June 30, 2013

Today, you can have your car shipped to your new home, when you are relocating to a far-off destination. These services have become invaluable in providing people with a stress-free way of transporting their vehicles, in a safe and secure manner, to their new homes. One of the important factors to consider is the car shipping quotes that you will receive from prospective transporters. You need to understand the elements that determine the cost of shipping your car, which will be included in the quote.

Destination

The first item to be considered is the distance over which the vehicle will be transported. When transport companies are drawing up car shipping quotes, they look for the shortest possible distance of shipping your car. Through the use of transport networks, they come up with the best way, to efficiently transport your vehicle to your new home. This will then determine the cost of the distance aspect of the whole task. If the delivery location is a residential area, it might affect the cost due to the difficulty of offloading.

Type of Car Carrier

The second item that the transporters will consider is the type of carrier that you want. You can have the car shipped in an enclosed or open truck. The cost of using an enclosed carrier will be slightly higher than that of using an open one. The transporters will also consider whether you are delivering your vehicle to their depot, or if they have to collect it from your door.

Date of Shipment

Finally, the car carriers will look at the shipping date that you may require. If you want the vehicle to be shipped in a time shorter than the standard time, you will have to pay more. It is advisable that you use a company that will deliver your car within a reasonable time window. The carriers usually group the vehicles according to the destinations. Your vehicle will be put in a group with vehicles which have to be delivered along the same route to your desired destination. The transporter will give you an estimated time of delivery, based on how many drop-offs will be done before they finally get to deliver your vehicle.

Misc. Factors

Other items that can influence car shipping quotes are: fuel prices, vehicle weight (extra items added inside vehicle), and special customer requests.

When selecting a car carrier, you should get car shipping quotes from several carriers, and look through the items covered in the quote. With this information, you will be equipped to make an informed decision on the carrier to hire. However, you should not compromise the quality of the services rendered just to make a saving on the cost of shipping you vehicle. Ensure that the services offered will guarantee the safe and secure delivery of your vehicle.

Safe-Direct Car Shipping is the #1 door to door car shipping company, with 5 star ratings from the BBB, Transport Reviews, and Transport Rankings! They offer the industries only 100% damage free guarantee. With Safe-Direct Car Shipping, you never pay a penny until you’re given your Car Carriers info and have the opportunity to review them in advance.

Car Finance 247 Reveals a Change in Brits’ Car Buying Habits











Car Finance 247 Logo


Manchester, UK (PRWEB UK) 27 June 2013

The last eight months has seen a change in people’s car buying habits, says car finance and dealer specialist carfinance247.co.uk, with a gender reversal on using car finance being the main difference.

Carfinance247 carried out an independent study in October 2012 to learn more about people’s car buying and car financing habits. They repeated the survey in June 2013 and saw some distinct differences:

    18% of all those questioned are planning to buy a vehicle in the next 12 months – this is a 7% decrease since October last year;
    15% plan to pay in cash or by using savings – this is a huge decrease from the previous 73%, suggesting that cash and savings are not so readily available;
    9% more males plan to use car finance or go to a bank compared to females – this is a stark contrast to the previous survey where women were more likely to opt for car finance (24% planned to use car finance or go to a bank compared to 16% of males).
Emily Henshall, Marketing Manager at Carfinance247.co.uk, says: “Rerunning this survey after 8 months has shown how volatile the car buying market can be in a short period of time. Less people are looking to purchase a vehicle, and with cash and savings being depleted, men, in particular, are recognising other options such as car finance.”

An emulsifier is a substance that stabilizes an emulsion. Emulsifiers can be used in variety of food segments such as bakery & confectionery, dairy, beverages, convenience foods, and in meat products to manufacture low calorific products. Emulsifiers are used by major food & beverage manufacturers as a food additive for reducing the fat content.

The deskbound lifestyles have resulted in rising needs for convenience foods. However, the alarming rises in health issues faced by consumers have also made them aware about the need to focus on healthy and nutritive convenience food products. The need to minimize the intake of fats and calories influences the demand for specific functional food variants.

Mono-, Di-glycerides & derivatives: Major type of food emulsifier

In 2012, natural emulsifiers accounted for about one-third of the total emulsifier market, whereas synthetic emulsifiers held the rest. Among the synthetic segment, Mono-, Di-glycerides & derivatives constitute the largest share and are expected to grow at a modest pace. Lecithin held a major market in natural emulsifiers and is expected to grow at modest CAGR. Other synthetic emulsifier’s which comprises of polyglycerol esters, sucrose esters and Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate (PGPR), is expected to drive the market for emulsifiers. However, palm oil & other vegetable oil prices are highly volatile and ascertaining accurate future prices would be difficult.

National Debt Relief Exposes Credit Card Facts That Most Consumers Do Not Know













NationalDebtRelief.com


Miami, FL (PRWEB) June 21, 2013

National Debt Relief, the leading provider of debt settlement services puts the limelight back on credit cards. On June 4, they published the article entitled “5 Little Known Facts About Credit Cards You Need To know.”

The article tackled the very controversial nature of credit cards and how some facts can affect the overall debt amount of consumers. In some instances, it makes the debt even worse than it already had become.

The debt relief company does not completely bash the cards. In fact, they admit that “credit cards can be wondrous tools” but it had to be used correctly. To do that, consumers must understand the whole nature of the plastic cards. This is what prompted National Debt Relief to publish the 5 facts that they believe consumers should know.

Here are the 5 facts that were discussed in the article.

The first fact is credit card companies have every right to raise their interest rates whenever they want to. These cards are notorious for having high interest and to have that increase further will also grow your debt balance. The article states that the first year of the cards is usually the only time the rates are safe from having a high increase. The article also mentioned that even if the consumer is a great card holder (e.g. pays on time), they will still increase rates if they feel like it.

To counter that first fact, the article revealed that consumers have every right to refuse that interest increase. This is fact number two. Card holders can actually write to their creditor to negotiate that they keep the old interest rate. There are three things that can happen. The card company can either lower the credit line, increase the monthly payment of the consumer or close the account. In case the creditor closes the account and the consumer agree that it is the best course, they should be given around five years to completely pay off the debt. Whatever is decided, the debt relief company warns consumers to put everything in writing.

The third fact involves the protection that these cards can give. The article is quick to say that this is not for all cards though. It includes purchasing something that does not arrive or receiving something that was not what the card holder ordered. Theft through credit cards are easier to track than stolen cash so that in itself is a protection for consumers.

The fourth fact that the article discussed involves fixed rates. Fact is, it may not be fixed at all. Or at least, the article notes that it will not stay fixed and that it can convert into a variable in the future. Of course, before this can happen, the law requires card companies to provide consumers with a 45 days notice.

The last fact that the article revealed is all about the balance. Sometimes, card companies do not impose a spending limit. In some cases, there is a limited amount that can be forwarded to the next month. The article admits that this can be confusing so they urge readers to read the fine prints on the credit card’s terms and conditions.

National Debt Relief hopes that through this article, consumers will be more cautious about how they use credit cards. The debt relief company have already worked with thousands of clients who are mostly burdened with credit card debt.

To read the whole article, visit National Debt Relief or call 888-703-4948 to talk to an International Association of Professional Debt Arbitrators (IAPDA) certified debt expert.

World Leaders in Alzheimer’s Innovation to Discuss Progress, Collaboration at DIA Annual Meeting











Horsham, Pa. (PRWEB) June 17, 2013

Without treatment, experts say, the number of Alzheimer’s disease patients worldwide is expected to almost double by 2025 to 34 million people—a startling realization that’s driving global forces to join together to advance research for the debilitating disease before it’s too late.

A number of innovative initiatives hold hope for a promising future in understanding Alzheimer’s, including new ways to implement genome sequencing in research, focus on much-needed support for caregivers and look for novel methods to improve clinical trials. These breakthrough efforts will be discussed on June 26 by U.S. leaders in Alzheimer’s research and regulation in three Advancing Alzheimer’s Innovation sessions at the DIA 2013 49th Annual Meeting at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center.

Scientists are now focusing on the interaction of gender, genetic risk factors and biological markers of the disease. Harvard Medical School professors Dr. Rudy Tanzi, director of the Genetics and Aging Research Unit of the MassGeneral Institute for Neurodegenerative Disease and recently profiled by The Boston Globe and cited as a “rock star of science” by GQ, and Dr. Reisa Sperling, director of the Center for Alzheimer Research and Treatment at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, will join a panel of experts discussing collaboration to support research at Advancing Alzheimer’s Innovation: A Call to Action.

Tanzi, leader of the Whole Genome Sequencing Project, aims to propel research to identify the genetic risk for Alzheimer’s disease—a vital step in discovering a therapy.

“We are taking advantage of cutting-edge technology to discover exactly how our genes determine susceptibility to Alzheimer’s disease,” Tanzi said. “This panel will discuss how this key knowledge will pioneer novel drug discovery efforts and pave the future of Alzheimer’s research.”

Sperling is the principal investigator for the first-ever clinical trial aimed at older people who are at genetic risk of developing Alzheimer’s, but who have yet to show symptoms. Sperling will discuss the new era of prevention trials and the importance of studying the role gender may play in developing the disease. The three-year-long clinical trial, launching in November, will be made up of 1,000 older individuals and is funded jointly by the National Institutes of Health and Eli Lilly.

“It is critical to understand the interaction of risk factors and biological markers of disease pathology as we move forward with the trial,” Sperling said.

Adding to the discussion about innovative approaches to treating Alzheimer’s, Dr. Nicholas Kozauer, clinical lead for the Food and Drug Administration’s Division of Neurology Products, will address the need for a regulatory framework for pre-dementia clinical trials. In March, Kozauer published a compelling piece in the New England Journal of Medicine on the need for innovative approaches in trial design and selection as the drug-development community turns its sights on the early stages of the disease.

The session is chaired by Meryl Comer, president of the Geoffrey Beene Foundation Alzheimer’s Initiative, which just launched a $ 100,000 Global NeuroDiscovery Challenge to look at gender-based differences in Alzheimer’s. George Vradenburg, chairman of USAgainstAlzheimer’s, will discuss plans to use the G-8 to develop an international approach to address Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Below are the two other June 26 sessions focused on Alzheimer’s treatment and care:

Advancing Alzheimer’s Innovation: Patient Advocacy, Caregiver Support and Health Care System Impact at 1:45 p.m.

New initiatives are responding to the growing stress on caregivers and the need to help individuals remain independent for as long as possible. Robert Feeney, senior director of evidence-based reimbursement for Sanofi, will lead a panel of experts discussing the initiatives that prepare society for the proper care of Alzheimer’s patients and caregivers. The forum will address best practices in delivery of care, whether in institutions or at home.

Advancing Alzheimer’s Innovation: Clinical Development Successes and Challenges at 4 p.m.

Only about 8 percent of drugs that treat diseases—including Alzheimer’s—affecting the central nervous system enter clinical trials and the U.S. market. Innovative approaches to clinical design are needed to advance the success rate of drugs that treat Alzheimer’s. Sperling, discussing the current landscape of Alzheimer’s clinical trials and lessons learned from past trials, will join executives from Eisai Inc., and Merck & Co., to address the challenges encountered in clinical development and recommendations in design to improve the success of clinical trials.
