Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/25/2010 -- Buyers Begin Moving In and Establishing Their Homes in Paradisiacal Las Terrenes

Santo Domingo – The Dominican Republic has an abundance of attractions to offer both visitors and investors looking for a retirement or second home – a tropical climate that rarely dips below 60 degrees, unspoiled natural beauty, diversity and accessibility, a stable government and economy. The country is home to some of the world's best golf courses, marinas, nightlife, eco-adventure and cultural and historical diversions. Investors are choosing the northern region of Las Terrenas specifically for its pristine beaches and great growth potential. A town of expatriates and relaxed setting bodes well for those seeking a haven from the hustle and bustle of work, family and life, especially for Canadians.

In November of 2009, Montreal resident Marcel Knafo, purchased a 3 bedroom apartment as well as a luxury villa at Balcones Del Atlantico. Marcel Knafo is super excited to have a tropical getaway to escape the cold winter months. In his search for a vacation home, he was seeking a convenient location that also presented an excellent investment opportunity. Moreover, from different cities of Canada you have direct flights to Samana's airport. "Since the opening of Samana El Catey airport, Las Terrenas has become a very convenient destination just a four hour flight from Montreal-Trudeau airport" stated Marcel.

Las Terrenas is the ultimate Caribbean destination which has become the perfect escape from reality. In this serene village, relaxation and adventure are only a few steps away while enjoying the warm breezes and the pleasant climate. "Las Terrenas is unique in the Dominican Republic with its authentic village, virgin beaches, wonderful people and its French and Italian expats community adds a European flavor and experience to the area" he explained. "I felt that there were better investment opportunities in this area as it is still in the development stage" stated Marcel.

Balcones Del Atlantico offers one to five bedroom unit apartments, town houses, condos and villas featuring breathtaking rooftop terraces with solariums, Jacuzzis and pools. Balcones Del Atlantico brought in renowned interior designer Patricia Reid Baquero to create a home of simple luxury. Through her use of natural, pristine elements, Baquero has created a carefree and serene environment prime for rest and relaxation.

The Bisono Group was founded in 1959; Bisono is considered the cornerstone of the construction industry in the Dominican Republic, working for private and public interests with tireless effort and maintaining an indisputable reputation. More than 15% of every Dominican is currently living under a roof constructed by this group. The Bisono group has been recognized both locally and internationally because of its relevance in the industrial, urban, and tourism development market. "Balcones Del Atlantico in my opinion is the premier development in Las Terrenas. Well designed, well managed and immaculate, this complex is located on a beautiful beach front. When this project is completed with all the services and amenities planned, it will be the most sophisticated high-end resort in the area" stated Marcel.

In the Dominican Republic, investors can buy prime oceanfront property for a fraction of the cost of comparable properties throughout the U.S. and Europe.

In 1998, the Dominican Republic government enacted a law allowing foreigners to buy property in the country with the same rights and obligations as a Dominican resident, the only requirement being the Title Registry Offices keep a record of all purchases made by non-citizens. There are numerous incentives the government provides for Foreign Direct Investment including hands-on assistance to investors, a highly developed free trade zone system, efficient shipping networks and the strongest telecommunications sector in Latin America.

About Balcones Del Atlantico
A dreamlike beachfront community in the serene village of Las Terrenas, Balcones Del Atlantico will showcase a superior collection of more than 350 exquisite bungalows right along the coastline of some of the Dominican Republic's most stunning beaches. Set on 66 acres of a former coconut plantation, Balcones Del Atlantico prides itself on offering its residents and guests simple luxury. Residents can choose from one to five bedroom units consisting of apartments, penthouses and town homes featuring breathtaking rooftop terraces with solariums, Jacuzzis and pools. While all the units are built with the most exquisite natural resources from the Dominican Republic, Italy and Spain, each design is different to accommodate a large demographic of singles, couples and families. Developers, the Bisono Group have more than 30 years of experience and were recently votes "Best Construction Company in the Country" by Revista Mercado. The property boasts Balcones Del Atlantico, A RockResort, which will be the hospitality group's first venture in the Dominican Republic. Additional amenities include a variety of unique pools of all different shapes and sizes, a 13,000 square foot club house, a beach bar/club, a spa and gym, tennis courts and more.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/24/2010 -- Coconut Grove Development Nears Grand Opening with Only a Few Units Remaining

Despite a challenging real estate market, Residences at Vizcaya, a newly designed residential condominium located in Miami's vibrant Coconut Grove neighborhood, is a prime example of the positive change taking place in South Florida. In the past few months Residences at Vizcaya has sold 13 well-appointed condos leaving only five available for a lucky few. Showing no sign of slowing down, Residences at Vizcaya has been very successful, especially due to its impressive sales at million dollar prices in the current market and in such a short time.

In addition to its ideal location that overlooks the Bay, buyers are drawn to the custom-designed homes that the Residences offer. To view the home that they've always dreamt of, buyers can schedule an appointment with a sales representative who will walk them through the process of customizing a unit to their personal liking. The units are more expansive than a typical condo, starting at 3,000 square feet and ranging up to 10,000 square feet. Additionally, 13 of the 18 units boast a private infinity pool.

Current Mexican buyer, Mauricio Girault says, "I think it is the most 'complete' project that Miami has to offer due to its location, exclusivity, and the ability to construct my dream house down the most minimal detail. I looked at various other properties within a seven month period, and what made it stand out was the fact that it combined my need for both an apartment and house in one," he says. "It has 5,500 sq. ft. like a house, but it also has the security of a building that allows me to travel and not worry. Initially, we purchased this home as a second home, but now we have made the decision to make it our primary home," adds Girault.

Upon entry, it is apparent why this seven-story development, estimated at $50M, is no ordinary place to call home. Residents will enjoy privacy, tranquility and luxury in a resort-style setting. Only minutes away from Downtown Miami, Coral Gables and Key Biscayne, residents can find a fine selection of restaurants, galleries and world-class shopping. With the expectation of being fully occupied in a matter of months, the Residences are over 70% sold with only five exclusive units remaining.

"Our recipe for success was undoubtedly inspired by uniqueness," says Managing Partner Michael Garcia. "The area of Coconut Grove bears gorgeous homes, but there aren't many condominiums that offer residents the amenities and customizations to the extent that Residences at Vizcaya does." He adds, "Even in the current market, people are willing to pay a little extra for what is going to accommodate their lifestyle."

Marking the revitalization of the Miami real estate market, the developers of Residences at Vizcaya look forward to officially inaugurating the remarkable development with its buyers and the local community in late summer 2010.

Gailen David Teams Up with Kiki Hamann to Prove That Even Pets Can Travel in First Class Style

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/23/2010 -- These days, a furry friend in an airport terminal is certainly not an uncommon sight. For such privileged pets, the benefit of a boarding pass and a comfortable seat is nowhere near enough. Most dog owners go to great lengths making sure their beloved companion looks their best, especially when traveling. In an effort to give canines a true first-class experience, air travel expert Gailen David has partnered with canine couture designer, Kiki Hamann, to make sure dogs not only travel comfortably, but travel in ultimate luxury and high-rising fashion.

With more than 30 years of experience in the airline and travel industry, Gailen David, a.k.a. The Sky Steward has introduced passengers to Jetiquette, an award winning program that helps promote a more civilized air travel experience. Beyond human contact, David recognizes the importance of travel advice, and particularly all the do's and don'ts of traveling with pets. Instead of the typical pet carriers, he encourages travelers to add a bit of chicness to express their pets' eclectic personalities and allow them to travel as cozy as their owners. With his fans' best interest in mind, David recommends his loyal followers to Kiki Hamann, canine stylist to the stars.

Well-known designer, Kiki Hamann, creates customized canine accessories that suit and personalize not only the dog, but the owner as well.

Kiki states, "I also thought about all the things we sometimes need to have accessible when carrying our doggies around, so I gave the carriers many handy pockets all around in carrousel style."

Gailen David applauds proactive approaches to traveling with such small individuals while maintaining proper Jetiquette during the trip. Amongst his long list of notable tips, he recommends that travelers check the website of the airline they intend to fly with since each airline maintains its own policies regarding pet travel.

Fuel Doctor Driver Brett Butler Launches Alpha Dog Training

Atlanta, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/19/2010 -- Watching Brett Butler on the track, racing in his #47 Fuel Doctor Truck at speeds in excess of 150 MPH, one would imagine he is made of steel. What surprises most is to learn that in his downtime, Butler spends countless hours training canines and recently founded his own company, Alpha Dog Training, with his brother Ken Butler III.

Growing up, Brett and his brother Ken had dogs of their own. "Having a dog in the family provides numerous benefits," explained Ken, "reports have shown that children with dogs in their lives while growing up are prone to be more emotionally and physically healthy". Brett's love of dogs has continued throughout the years.

After visiting 'kill facilities', or animal shelters that euthanize unwanted or deemed 'unadoptable' dogs many times due to bad behavior, Brett wanted to help them. By rehabilitating misbehaved canines, he could spare their lives and find them homes. "These dogs don't understand they're doing wrong because they were never taught," explained Brett, "if someone just took the time to train them they could make some home and family a very happy one".

In order to become more skilled in the obedience training field, Brett sought council from expert Andy Hanellin, founder of Dog's by Andy in North Carolina. There he learned tricks of the trade, from breed knowledge, canine care, kennel management and basic and advanced obedience training. "What was great about learning from Andy was that he taught me not just what to do to train a dog, but why do it" adds Brett.

Brett returned to Atlanta and opened up Alpha Dog Training with Ken in the summer of 2009, where they offer a three-week boot camp for dogs. In the boot camp, canines are taught commands like heel, sit, stay, down, come and place, in any language including French, Belgian, Dutch, or German. Alpha Dog Training's goal is to reach basic obedience where the owner has 100% control of the dog. They also train canines in narcotics to have the ability to recognize and find illegal drugs.

Brett's humanitarian efforts are well aligned with his racing sponsor Fuel Doctor USA, a fellow champion of the environment. Fuel Doctor's FD-47 helps to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted from a consumer's automobile, providing cleaner and safer air for humans and animals. "We're really behind Brett's commitment to providing canines with a second chance," voiced Fuel Doctor USA CEO, Mark Soffa, "he's trying to create a better life for animals and so are we."

With an abundance of canines trained already for clients like Michael Waltrip, Kelly Picklet and Big Boi from the music group Outkast, Alpha Dog Training is sure to be a top dog competitor just like Brett is on the track. Brett just returned from the Dover 200 and is looking forward to the North Carolina Education Lottery 200 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway on Frida, May 21st at 7:30pm followed by WinStar World Casino 400k at the Texas Motor Speedway on June 4th, 2010.

Thriving Design District Poised for Brooklyn-like Success with Chefs Leading the Way

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/10/2010 -- For years tourists have flocked to Miami's South Beach area for the utmost in dining, nightlife and shopping. With more and more tourists, the attractions have spread to the further reaches of Miami. Some of the newest hotspots have been discovered, not on Lincoln or Collins, but instead in between NE 39th and 43rd Streets and between NE 2nd and North Miami Avenue, in downtown Miami's bustling Design District.

What started out with one modern furniture company opening its doors in the late '90's, has quickly snowballed into a design district unlike any other in the country. In almost a Brooklyn-like model for success, the Design District has quickly become home to art galleries and design showrooms, gourmet restaurants churning out rave-reviews, clothing boutiques and chic speakeasies with lines around the block. Much of this can be attributed to Miami being chosen as the satellite venue in 2002 for Art Basel, with much of the activity going on a few streets from the Design District. The truth is this thriving area has been on the verge for years, with restoration projects and new development always underway, but what Miami is really witnessing in the Design Districts is the power of a chef, or chefs as the case may be.

Michael Schwartz paved the way with his Michael's Genuine Food & Drink. Schwartz was quickly followed by a trail of well-known and respected South Florida culinary geniuses like Michelle Bernstein, Jonathan Eismann, and Ken Lyon. The Food Network's South Beach Wine & Food Festival even branched into the Design District this year to highlight the work of these respected chefs.

The Reality of NASCAR Racing Sets in for Team, Sponsor and Fans

Nashville, TN -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/09/2010 -- As fans sit back and enjoy the thrilling action of NASCAR racing, many overlook the risks drivers take from the moment they get behind the wheel. This Friday at the Nashville Superspeedway, all were reminded of this when Rick Ware Racing driver Brett Butler was injured while racing his Fuel Doctor "Go Green" Machine in the Nashville 200.

In the first lap of Saturday's race, another driver hit the wall leaving debris scattered over the track. Following closely behind was #47 Fuel Doctor driver, Brett Butler. While Butler was able to avoid the collision, he did not go unscathed. Unable to circumvent the debris, Butler ran through the wreckage causing a flat tire and some serious damage to his truck. "As soon as I got into turn one the right rear tire blew out and so did the firewall" explained Butler. The firewall is vital to a driver, not only keeping out debris, but also hazardous heat and fumes, out of the driver's car. Without the firewall, fiberglass from the wreckage flew into Butler's eyes, face and hands.

At lap 40, Butler pulled into the pit for repairs to his truck and to try wipe some of the glass shards from his eyes. Concerned, Butler's family and crew members encouraged Butler to receive medical attention but unwavering Butler returned to the track. Butler could be heard over the radio "It hurts real bad, I'm hot, my face is cut up, but I'm not gonna stop, my job is to support Rick Ware Racing and my sponsor Fuel Doctor". The essence of Brett Butler can be wrapped up in what he said next, "I'm running this thing to the finish". While he sustained injuries and burns, Butler got in his "Go Green" Machine and finished the 120 laps with his team, family, fans and sponsors cheering him on.

Courage, skill and determination kept Butler going during the tumultuous race on Friday night. "You always ride it out because you never know what's going to happen," Butler said.

Brett was immediately taken to the hospital to receive treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning as well as severe lacerations to his face and hands. Doctor's had to vacuum the microscopic fiberglass particles out of Brett's skin and eyes. He also was put on oxygen for days due to the severe levels of carbon monoxide intake. Released hours later, doctors said Butler would make a full recovery. Now home recuperating, Butler is already looking forward to his next race in NASCAR's Camping World Series.

"We're so grateful Brett is going to be ok" stated Mark Soffa, Fuel Doctor USA CEO. "Brett embodies the true spirit of a driver he drives with such heart, unrelenting determination, and natural instincts" Soffa continued. In the eyes of his sponsors, team and fans Butler is a winner and they eagerly anticipate his return to the tracks in Kansas at the O'Reilly Auto Parts 250 on May 2nd, 2010. Butler's dedication to racing will certainly help him prevail in the 2010 Series and for years to come.

Dr. Jhonny Salomon Plastic Surgery & Med Spa Committed to Highest Standards of Medicine while Educating Patients on a Healthy Lifestyle

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/08/2010 -- Although surgical procedures evolve daily to satisfy today's appearance-conscious society, only a handful of doctors truly understand the way to a youthful, healthy, natural look. Dr. Jhonny Salomon, an eminent plastic surgeon committed to the highest standards of medicine, has dedicated his practice to providing the perfect combination of procedures that fits each client individually. The Dr. Jhonny Salomon Plastic Surgery & Med Spa provides a "one-stop-shop" to looking and feeling great, supplying patients with the proper services, treatments and education to achieve long-term beauty, youth, and wellness.

Completely attune with consumers' desires for improvement, Dr. Salomon seeks to help his patients become the best version of themselves by practicing long-lasting medicine. Dr. Salomon, known as the "face man", thoroughly studies his patients by looking at pictures to determine exactly how they age, and combines that study with his knowledge and expertise of the human face and body to develop a customized plan for each and every patient. Dr. Salomon believes, "the surgical process begins as Medicine, and then slowly becomes an art" and strongly objects with the recent trend of surgeons creating a "signature" look for their patients. Although every patient requires a different technique, the results are the same - a flawless look that shows no sign of surgery.

"I couldn't be happier with the result of my facelift. His expertise, attention to detail and artistic judgment achieved a totally natural look - only years younger", says Laura DeSena, a patient of Dr. Salomon. "My husband, my grown sons and my mother were immediately comfortable with the new "me" because it was such a smooth transition.

In addition, Dr. Jhonny Salomon Plastic Surgery & Med Spa was one of the first to offer Thermage nearly 10 years ago and is currently the only office in South Florida to offer the new Thermage CPT today, the latest technology for reproduction of the body's natural elasticity & collagen renewal.

Dr. Salomon's approach to medicine can be considered to be very holistic and he has developed the Med Spa around the idea that complete beauty is a lifestyle combination of mind and body wellness. For this reason, Dr. Salomon has invited Dr. Suzel Vazquez, a leading Board Certified specialist, to manage the Age Management department offering bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, mesotherapy, weight loss and detoxification programs, & nutritional counseling. All of the programs offered by Dr. Vazquez are customized "prescriptions" unique to each individual patient based on their blood and hormone profile. Age management, also thought as internal plastic surgery, "is what plastic surgery was 20 years ago" quoted Dr. Salomon.

The services offered at the Med Spa are a compliment to both the invasive and non-invasive procedures offered by Dr. Jhonny Salomon. Patients are given peace of mind upon entering Dr. Salomon's luxurious surgical facility and medical spa as the stylish decor makes every patient feel like a VIP guest at a five star hotel.

Buyers Begin Moving In and Establishing Their Homes in Paradisiacal Las Terrenes

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/17/2010 -- The Dominican Republic has an abundance of attractions to offer both visitors and investors looking for a retirement or second home – a tropical climate that rarely dips below 60 degrees, unspoiled natural beauty, diversity and accessibility, a stable government and economy. The country is home to some of the world's best golf courses, marinas, nightlife, eco-adventure and cultural and historical diversions. Investors are choosing the northern region of Las Terrenas specifically for its pristine beaches and great growth potential. A town of expatriates and relaxed setting bodes well for those seeking a haven from the hustle and bustle of work, family and life, especially for United States Citizens.

Recently, Sonia and David Glass moved into their two-bedroom apartment at Balcones Del Atlantico. Michigan residents, Sonia and David Glass were excited at the prospect of having a getaway to escape to during the cold winter months. They purchased the apartment in March 2008 and were able to watch the development come to life. "We had no hesitation investing while the development was still underway," stated David. "Bisono Group is so well known and respected in the Dominican Republic, they've built some of the country's greatest developments" he explained. "We looked in the area and Balcones was by far the best construction with the finest quality and detail being built in the region" explained Sonia.

Balcones Del Atlantico offers one to five bedroom unit apartments, town houses, condos and villas featuring breathtaking rooftop terraces with solariums, Jacuzzis and pools. Sonia and David enjoy a 177 square meter, beach-front, two-bedroom apartment with a large terrace overlooking the large, beautiful pool. "I just love sitting on my terrace, admiring the lavish vegetation with so many different shades of green amid the statuesque coconut and palm trees," exclaimed Sonia. Balcones Del Atlantico brought in renowned interior designer Patricia Reid Baquero to create a home of simple luxury. Through her use of natural, pristine elements, Baquero has created a carefree and serene environment prime for rest and relaxation.

In the Dominican Republic, investors can buy prime oceanfront property for a fraction of the cost of comparable United States properties. In 1998, the Dominican Republic government enacted a law allowing foreigners to buy property in the country with the same rights and obligations as a Dominican resident, the only requirement being the Title Registry Offices keep a record of all purchases made by non-citizens. There are numerous incentives the government provides for Foreign Direct Investment including hands-on assistance to investors, a highly developed free trade zone system, efficient shipping networks and the strongest telecommunications sector in Latin America.

About Balcones Del Atlantico
A dreamlike beachfront community in the serene village of Las Terrenas, Balcones Del Atlantico will showcase a superior collection of more than 350 exquisite bungalows right along the coastline of some of the Dominican Republic's most stunning beaches. Set on 66 acres of a former coconut plantation, Balcones Del Atlantico prides itself on offering its residents and guests simple luxury. Residents can choose from one to five bedroom units consisting of apartments, penthouses and town homes featuring breathtaking rooftop terraces with solariums, Jacuzzis and pools.

The property boasts Balcones Del Atlantico, A RockResort, which will be the hospitality group's first venture in the Dominican Republic. Additional amenities include a variety of unique pools of all different shapes and sizes, a 13,000 square foot club house, a beach bar/club, a spa and gym, tennis courts and more.

Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day by Saving Gas Money While Going Green

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/17/2010 -- A famous frog once said "It's not easy being green," well it actually is rather easy – and inexpensive – to be green, Kermit just never met the Fuel Doctor USA. The revolutionary Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 allows eco-conscious consumers to save gas and money while helping the environment by reducing the pollutants emitted into the air.

Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 is the fuel efficiency booster. The FD-47 increases a vehicles miles per gallon (MPG) through power conditioning of the vehicles electrical systems. Conditioned and clean power allows the vehicles electronic control unit (ECU), fuel injection and engine timing equipment to operate more efficiently. When the vehicles engine runs more efficiently it will require less fuel, produce more power and have reduced exhaust emissions (reduced CO2). As a vehicle matures, the power systems tend to generate and experience more electrical noise or electrical interference. This noise can have many detrimental effects on the vehicles systems and decrease their efficiency. The FD-47 simply plugs into the cigarette/power outlet and the power conditioning qualities of the FD-47 help to reduce and remove this noise and to restore your vehicles efficiency.

Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 was tested by The Automobile Club of Southern California's Automotive Research Center. This U.S. EPA and CARB recognized independent test laboratory states, "The majority of the Carbon (99%) coming out of an engine is in the form of CO2. This means that improvements in fuel economy result in reduced CO2 emissions". Other tests were conducted on the FD-47 by superior automotive and engineering authorities including BOSCH (Ledico), TestCar, and Kett Engineering. These testing results found that the FD-47 increases fuel economy (up to 25%), which results in fewer CO2 emissions.

Each year, by using the FD-47, under normal driving conditions consumers will reduce the CO2 pollutants their vehicles emit into the air by thousands of pounds. It's a truly effortless yet rewarding act, "JUST PLUG IN and keep it in" states Fuel Doctor USA CEO, Mark Soffa, "it's really that simple, and maintenance free."

Best Buy, the nation's largest electronic retailer, officially launched Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 in their stores last month.

Celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day this year, all year with Fuel Doctor USA and reduce your carbon footprint.

About The Fuel Doctor USA:
The Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 will significantly change the rate of fuel consumption for consumers, saving them money and the environment one car at a time.

New Device for Motor Vehicles Saves Gas, Money & the Environment

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/17/2010 -- According to the U.S. Congress's Office of Technology Assessment (OTA), "Older cars generally are much less fuel efficient than new ones, they burn a disproportionate share of gasoline and thus are responsible for a similarly large share of the environmental, economic, and national security effects of gasoline use." Just in time, a new auto device is sweeping the nation that addresses these issues; Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47. Simply plugged into the lighter socket/power port, the FD-47 is saving the environment (and consumers' money) one car at a time.

The FD-47significantly changes the rate of fuel consumption of an automobile, saving consumers money with each tank of gas. The FD-47's cutting-edge technology increases fuel economy, which thereby creates less CO2 released into the environment. Fuel Doctor USA has officially joined the ranks of new companies using science and technology to effectively lessen environmental damages.

While the technology of Fuel Doctor USA's FD-47 is intricate, the process is quite simple. The FD-47 is a Fuel Efficiency Booster that increases a vehicle's miles per gallon (MPG) through power conditioning of the electrical systems. Conditioned and clean power allows the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU), fuel injection and engine timing equipment to operate more efficiently. When the vehicle's engine runs more efficiently it will require less fuel, produce more power and have reduced exhaust emissions (reduced CO2). As a vehicle matures, the power systems tend to generate and experience more electrical noise or electrical interference. This noise can have many detrimental effects on the vehicles systems and decrease their efficiency. The FD-47 simply plugs into the cigarette/power outlet and the power conditioning qualities of the FD-47 help to reduce and remove this noise and to restore a vehicle's efficiency.

While on a business trip in Asia, Mark Soffa, CEO of Fuel Doctor USA, was introduced by a business associate to an item he hailed as "the greatest product in the world…it actually saves gas." Soffa decided to conduct his own preliminary test, and brought the product to a friend who has lab and field testing equipment. Soon after, Soffa received an exciting call from his friend whose tests showed an 18% increase in fuel efficiency. Soffa decided to put the product through rigorous independent testing, which were done in three different continents. To ensure the product complied with regulatory rules, he brought the FD-47 to Southern California's Automotive Research Center, an EPA-certified testing center for CARB (California Air Resource Board). "We firmly believe it is important to provide our customers with complete details about our product as well as our testing procedures, so they may see the effectiveness of the FD-47 first-hand," Soffa states.

"The results were excellent on cars, trucks, and SUVs 24-months and older," Soffa states. "The FD-47 can now be considered one of the most important and effective after-market auto accessories available in the marketplace today," he concludes.

To the consumer, this translates to more mileage (less money) per tank of gas and less CO2 emissions. The savings average $7 per fill-up, depending on type of car and gas prices. Additionally, the Fuel Doctor's FD-47 can save thousands of pounds of CO2 per driver per year, which means that for roughly every ten FD-47 users, an entire car is taken off the road. Soffa explains, "Our goal at Fuel Doctor USA is to produce user friendly and environmentally safe products for our future." He continues, "Through my promotion and import business, we started to see the demand for green products growing at a rapid pace and wanted to be part of it."

In September of 2009, Soffa used his production-trained eye to give the original product a trendier appearance, and the FD-47was launched on the Fuel Doctor USA website as well as with the popular mid-west catalogue, Heartland America. The Heartland America launch was so successful that the company tripled their next order size weeks later! Since October, thousands of FD-47 units have been sold, and Soffa has personally taken a majority of customer calls so he could experience the excitement first-hand. These calls range from technical questions to NASCAR questions, and everything in between.

As of February 28th, the FD-47 was launched at the nation's largest electronic retailer, Best Buy.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/09/2010 -- Despite a challenging market, Toni Schrager and Techrin Hijazi of the Miami luxury waterfront realtor duo Toni&Techrin has a remarkable success story in the residential real estate market of South Florida. In a mere two months, Techrin has closed two significant deals including a $7.25 million dollar spread on the celebrity spotted Star Island. Preparing for an excellent 2010, Toni&Techrin are excited for what's to come.

Techrin has recently closed a Star Island listing within a month of it being on the market. The property, 44 Star Island Drive, boasts 220 feet of prime waterfront property in a private access community home to many celebrities including Gloria Estefan, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Phil Frost, and 44 Star's neighbor, Rosie O'Donnell. This closing marks the second time in less than three years Techrin has made a sale on Star Island, a sale of the same property nonetheless. In 2008, Techrin closed 44 Star Island Drive on behalf of the seller. Then in January 2010, the former owner, Dr. Cem Kinay, came to his long time realtor, Techrin, to relist the property. In little more than 30 days, Techrin has brought both seller, Dr. Kinay, and buyer, Shay Kostiner, together in a $7.25M deal.

To make a sale on Star Island in the current market and in such a short time is an extraordinary accomplishment. "Techrin is this force of nature, with so much drive and determination, she's done just an amazing job bringing the right buyer and seller together" said partner, Toni Schrager.

Another remarkable fete, Techrin sold within the first week of the new year, a stunning ocean view condo at the famed Santa Maria located at 1643 Brickell Avenue, on behalf of seller Patricia Conrad. The residence sold for $2.7 million.

According to the most recent sales report from the Southeast Florida Regional Multiple Listing, Techrin ranks fifth in All Residential Sales by Dollar Volume in Miami-Dade County for the month of January without counting this latest sale of Star Island. Up next, Toni and Techrin are just steps away from closing 7270 West Lago Drive in the highly sought after area of Cocoplum in Coral Gables. Working with the seller, Sergio Pino, Toni and Techrin have Pino's waterfront estate under contract, pending a close in the next two weeks.

Toni&Techrin have some of the most sought after listings in the area currently including 3301 S. Moorings Way and 40 Palm Avenue on Palm Island. To learn more call Toni&Techrin at 305.669.7980 or 305.815.4655 email them at toni@tonischrager.com or techrin@techrinestates.com, or visit http://www.toni&techrin.com to view their latest listings.

Rick Ware Racing Rookie Driver Prepares to Take Atlanta 200 in his Fuel Doctor #47 Truck

Atlanta, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/09/2010 -- After an impressive race at Daytona in The NextEra Energy Resources 250 in his Fuel Doctor #47 truck, Brett Butler has undeniably hit his stride in the racing world. Now Butler heads home to Atlanta and prepares to go up against champions like Ted Musgrave, Kyle Busch and Mike Skinner in the Atlanta 200 on March 6th, 2010.

Butler is excited to be in his hometown but continues to stay focused on the race ahead, of his strategy to winning the upcoming Atlanta 200 he says "Flying under the radar has always been my style." With the lead in the 'Rookie of the Year' points, Butler is ecstatic to be in Atlanta but acknowledges fellow "Rookie of the Year" contender and Bass Pro Shops driver Austin Dillion. This race is a big one for both Brett Butler and Bass Pro Shops as both consider Atlanta their hometown. "This is his sponsor's backyard as well, you know" stated Butler. "It is nice to not have all the pressure that he must have, the high profile sponsor and paint scheme, not to mention the name and number everyone expects to be at the front" he continued.

Butler will be racing in The Fuel Doctor's 'Green Machine' again after his solid performance at Daytona, "This is a great truck we are taking to Atlanta. I raced this same truck at Homestead in my debut for Rick Ware Racing and Fuel Doctor USA in 2009" said Butler. "The Earnhardt-Childress Engine is extremely stout and that's what you need here and with my crew chief Gary Cogswell and the 'Green Team' setting up and tweaking this hot rod, I feel a happy homecoming could be in order" Butler continued with a big grin.

Placing 11th in the season opener at Daytona and honored with the Raybestos "Rookie of the Race" award, on-lookers were in awe of Butler's level of skill for his first time on a superspeedway in the Nextera Energy Resources 250 at Daytona. A part of the Rick Ware Racing team, Brett drove in his 'Fuel Doctor: Go Green Machine" in a race that marked his career high in NASCAR. "I feel really great about our performance at Daytona, and to now race at Atlanta, my home track, I think we can back that up" stated Butler. "I know my fellow rookie competitors, Austin (Dillon), Justin (Lofton) and Jennifer (Jo Cobb) will be on the attack after the bad luck that hit them at Daytona" Butler predicted. "But our Fuel Doctor USA team is up for the challenge" he continued.

Born and raised in Snellville, Georgia, Butler has been racing since the age of fifteen and has worked his way from go-carts to NASCAR's Camping World Truck Series in less than ten years. Last year, Butler raced in the ARCA series at Daytona placing 39th. The younger brother of Ken Butler III, Butler has often been over looked by NASCAR fans, but is quickly making a name for himself as he sets his sights on conquering NASCAR's Camping World Truck Series 2010 season. Bulter enjoys flying under the radar, "I'm not a household name, Fuel Doctor USA and the #47 don't have the historic background and it's not what we're about either" he explained. "We are here to race hard and educate fans and consumers about saving fuel, money and the environment. That's just as important to many during this economy and in this environmentally conscious generation, and if we can run at the front again, well that's a homecoming gift I will cherish for a very long time."

Just embarking on his NASCAR journey, Butler is prepared for the hectic schedule and traveling for nearly 30 weeks a year, explaining that "It's always good to race in your own backyard. To eat dinner at your own house and sleep in your own bed is something that most NASCAR drivers and team members never get a chance to do." Butler plans to take full advantage of spending quality time with his family and team in Atlanta before he goes back on the road and heads to Martinsville.

Currently Brett is leading in points for this year's Rookie of the Year championship. In his first year in the 2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, Butler is scheduled for 12 races. Brett Butler in the Fuel Doctor #47 truck can be seen at The Atlanta 200, which will air on March 6th, 2010 at 2:00 pm EST on The Speed Channel. Follow Brett Butler on Twitter at @brettcbutler.

For only a $1 entry fee, more than 50,000 visitors enjoyed artwork from local and nationally renowned artists, an international food court, children's area, an authentic English tea room and interactive art installations, all on the shady campus of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and School (2750 McFarlane Road).

This year's show featured over 160 renowned artists, including one of Florida's original "Highwaymen" painters and a nationally renowned artist, James Gibson. Most recently, Gibson received the "Distinguished Service to Arts" Award, presented to him by Governor Charlie Crist, on behalf of the National Governors Association made up of all the Governors in the US. Additionally, an interactive piece designed by Erika Bell, entitled "Tags of Love," brought something unique and special to this year's show.

Award Winning Program Helps Promote a More Civilized Air Travel Experience

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/10/2010 -- With a stricken global economy still recuperating, one of the industries that has taken a strong hit are the airlines and the travelers are definitely feeling it. In order to supplement the expensive rates of keeping a plane in the air, many airline companies have begun to substitute comfort for cost. For some airliners, a courtesy pillow and blanket in coach can now be purchased for $8 and a complimentary drink is no longer free. Now, the voices of airline travelers can be heard through Jetiquette®, an award winning program that helps promote a more civilized air travel experience. In an industry that has almost forgotten the meaning of "customer service", Gailen David, a.k.a "The Sky Steward", is standing up for passengers as an advocate for proper in-flight protocol and customer service.

With more than 30 years of experience in the airline and travel industry, David is the "Go-To" guy for travel qualms and advice. In 2007, he fashioned himself as "The Sky Steward", serving as an online resource and forum for travelers. Through www.SkySteward.com, David is able to provide travelers with expert advice and tips. In addition to creating a helpful travel site, the Sky Steward also focuses on a quest to find the "best of travel" and helps to improve the experience, whether flying in first class or coach - on a commercial jet or private.

With a mission that focuses on taking the travel experience to a higher level, the Sky Steward created a vehicle specifically for the people - Jetiquette®. "I want Jetiquette® to be what people think of when they think of elevating their travel experience, when they are considering which products to buy, what airline to fly, and which airport is better for connections." says The Sky Steward. "Having a model like Jetiquette® is something that will actually make CEO's sit up and listen," adds David. The program even received the Magellan Award from Travel Weekly Magazine for training excellence.

Recently the Sky Steward designated the top 10 best US airports that have received a Jetiquette® Rating. The rating was designed to commend airports that have achieved an exceptional level of customer service, as well as serve as a guided resource for passengers when scheduling flights. The Sky Steward is also the author of "Jetiquette…The Customer Experience and You." Another resource that travelers can turn to is http://www.ionospherenetwork.com where Gailen is the featured host and talks about travel related topics. Listeners can call in with their questions, complaints and travel experiences. For additional information, visit http://www.SkySteward.com.
