Serviam Towers Honored with Multifamily Excellence Award

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 10, 2012
On April 26, 2012, the National Association of Local Housing Finance Agencies (NALHFA) presented Serviam Towers with the Multifamily Excellence Award at their 2012 annual conference in Austin, Texas. Developed in collaboration with Fordham-Bedford Housing Corporation (FBHC), Oaklander, Coogan & Vitto Architects, P.C. (OCV), and Galaxy General Contracting Corporation, Serviam Towers is a two-building complex part of the Serviam Gardens development which brings affordable, sustainable housing to senior citizens in New York City.
The Multifamily Excellence Award is bestowed upon projects identified as providing special needs, including senior housing and housing for the homeless with supportive services. Award winners are recognized as models for the community and deemed financially viable for both tenants and developers, while exemplifying exceptional design.
Built on the campus of The Academy of Mount St. Ursula in the Bronx, Serviam Towers is a new construction connected to a former convent on the site that was renovated and converted to provide apartments and social spaces for residents. The whole development provides 243 units of housing to low and moderate income seniors, with on-site amenities such as a media room, yoga/tai chi room, gym, game room, a 54-seat theater, lounges, and both indoor and outdoor gathering spaces.
Serviam Towers is the first City-subsidized affordable housing development completed using the Enterprise Green Communities Criteria (EGCC), bringing together a sustainability agenda that reaches beyond the building to the community that comprises it. Included in the project are landscaped grounds with productive garden beds for residents? plantings, as well as an 8,000 square foot green roof outfitted with a rainwater harvesting system. These features were recently recogized by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) NY Chapter with an Honor Award in Collaborative Design.
In addition to the green roofs, other green features throughout the development include a high performance building envelope with Energy Star appliances and light fixtures, high efficiency boiler and heating and cooling system, and non-toxic, renewable and recycled interior finishes. The development is located within a secure setting and in close proximity to public transportation and community amenities.
Partnering with Enterprise benefits both the community and residents in the development. Rising utility costs have increasingly contributed to a cost of living burden many New Yorkers experience and in the absense of a sustainable strategy to combat these costs, many City residents will continue to be affected. Those living at Serviam Gardens enjoy reduced expenditures attributed to the energy efficiency built into the project. Additionally, as part of the Greener, Greater Buildings Plan, Serviam contributes to the reduction in NYC?s annual greenhouse gas emissions by 7.5%, based on 2005 City-wide emissions.
Serviam Towers construction, developed under Mayor Michael Bloomberg?s New Housing Marketplace Plan (NHMP), embodies PlaNYC, the city?s affordable and sustainable housing initiative to create a ?greener, greater? New York. PlaNYC strives to create a more liveable New York City by offering an increased number of sustainable and affordable neighborhoods in the presence of what is projected to be a population growth of one million by 2030.

These stories from the battle become real to them. I believe that this year the impact will be even greater than in the past.?
In order to make the visit to Gettysburg possible, The Lincoln Leadership Institute has joined the Gettysburg Hotel to provide complimentary transportation and lodging accommodations for the students during their visit.
?I appreciate the level of commitment from the entire team at The Lincoln Leadership Institute and how welcoming they have been to our students,? Figueroa-Torres said.
Wiley said this is the third year that The Lincoln Leadership Institute at Gettysburg has provided this leadership development experience for the charter school?s students, and he?s thrilled to be offering the opportunity again.

Telcare Named one of Gartner?s ?Cool Vendors?

Bethesda, MD (PRWEB) April 25, 2012
Gartner Research has named Telcare, Inc., and its FDA-cleared Diabetes Blood Glucose Monitoring System, one of its Cool Vendors among Healthcare Information Technology Providers for 2012. The well-respected IT analysis firm’s annual “Cool Vendor” list spotlights companies delivering what Gartner researchers perceive to be “disruptive technologies” — potentially game-changing innovations in their space.
Gartner?s analyst Wes Rishel and colleagues wrote, ?While prognosticators have waxed eloquent on the potential value of Web-connected glucometers, Telcare has been doing it and getting the technology right. …Choosing the cellular data network is right because it is invisible to the user. ….This is the same technology that made Kindle the book reader that grandma loves. The connected glucometer is no more difficult to use than an unconnected glucometer, and far easier than those that use Bluetooth or cords to connect the device to an intermediate PC.?
This year Telcare introduced the first wireless-enabled glucose meter and iPhone app. It allows patients and their caregivers to easily track their blood glucose levels to help manage their diabetes.
“We?re honored that Telcare?s BGM system has been recognized by Gartner Research,? said Dr. Jonathan Javitt, CEO of Telcare, Inc. ?Being named to the ?Cool Vendor? list validates the work we?ve done and it reflects our commitment to transform diabetes care. By incorporating wireless communication, social networking, and best practices in health IT, Telcare has brought the monitoring of diabetes into the 21st century for 28 million Americans, their caregivers, and their loved ones.?
Gartner praised Telcare for ?getting the technology right,? and went on to say, ?Telcare designed its website to be a social experience for diabetics, their families or other caregivers. By thinking of the complete system Telcare demonstrated the difference between the starry-eye approaches that technology companies bring to healthcare and the nuanced approach that it takes to develop effective solutions.?

CRIME WATCH: Steven Bankert Reacts to The Washington Post, Fights Tide Thieves
North Attleboro, MA (PRWEB) April 17, 2012
The Washington Post recently ran an article depicting an unlikely crime epidemic: the theft of Tide laundry detergent from CVS stores in the D.C. area. Author Petula Dvorak reveals that Tide is a new currency, called ?liquid gold,? and has been sold for drugs, to mom-and-pop stores, and even on the street. Steven Bankert, the owner of several laundry facilities, is fighting back by protecting his Tide inventory.
?We sell Tide liquid in my stores,? commented Steven Bankert. ?It is kept behind the counter and there is a full-time attendant on duty, so there is little chance of theft. Like the grocery and convenience stores, we have cameras so we can see what is going on at all times.?
Like many other Americans, Steve Bankert wonders why this particular product has been targeted by criminals. Dvorak has the answer: ?What do they do with all the detergent? Tide, which is apparently coveted because it?s pretty expensive at about $ 20 for a 100-ounce jug, gets sold to neighborhood mom-and-pop stores, on street corners and in parking lots. Like the trench-coat guy who once sold stolen watches, this is now happening with household goods. A $ 20 bottle of Tide can go for $ 5 [?] The benefits to criminals are clear. You can?t trace the detergent, and there?s nothing illegal about being caught with a trunk full of soap.?
This level of desperation is something that has not been seen by the general population since the Great Depression. Unfortunately, the economic climate has created an environment in which most families cannot afford to buy their favorite laundry detergent. While other, cheaper brands are available, the high cost of Tide?and the determination of people to get their hands on it at all costs?is very telling of growing economic troubles. While the economy, as a whole, shows signs of recovery, the general population still faces daily struggles when it comes to finances.
Stephen Bankert is appalled at this kind of behavior. Tide may be one of the more expensive laundry detergents on the market, but it is certainly not worth risking criminal activity. Simply put, the risk associated with Tide theft is not worth the reward?if it can be said that there is one. As such, Steve Bankert is fighting against this new criminal trend by adequately staffing his laundry facilities and installing cameras on the property.
ABOUT:
Steven Bankert is the owner of multiple coin-laundry facilities. Additionally, he has a background in the restaurant industry; his family owned an Italian restaurant when he was young. His diverse background has allowed Steve Bankert to develop a variety of skills that have helped him to become a well-rounded entrepreneur. When not clocking hours at his laundry facilities, Stephen Bankert is spending time on the water, cooking, and enjoying time with his family.
The Washington Post reports on an unsuspected crime epidemic that is sweeping the country: the theft of Tide laundry detergent. Steve Bankert, owner of multiple coin-operated laundry facilities, fights back against this theft by protecting his inventory and spreading the word.

Vivid Vocab Partners With BLine Test Prep

New York, NY (PRWEB) April 04, 2012
As the competition for college admissions heats up around the country, more and more students are looking for affordable and easily accessible ways to prep for their standardized tests. The internet provides a perfect solution; SAT and ACT prep can be offered to students through the web with no geographic restrictions and with scale and pricing options that “brick and mortar” test prep institutions can’t match. Two rapidly growing companies within the test prep space, Vivid Vocab and BLineTestPrep.com, have just joined forces to enhance their reach and spread their material to the students who need it most.
“Fifteen years ago, a low-income student in Montana who needed SAT tutoring was completely out of luck,” says Anthony-James Green, president of Vivid Vocab and long-time champion of eLearning solutions for test prep. “Now, that same student just needs an internet connection.” The vast majority of experienced SAT and ACT tutors can charge anywhere from $ 60/hour to more than $ 400/hour for their services. For students who can afford this price-tag, and who live within a reasonable distance of these tutors, this can be an extremely effective way to improve their scores. However, for the vast majority of students who either cannot afford $ 10,000 worth of SAT tutoring, or who don’t live within 500 miles of a trustworthy SAT tutor, the internet has opened up a vast array of options that were previously unavailable. BLineTestPrep.com is one of these options – a completely free, interactive SAT tutoring website that allows students from around the globe to receive comprehensive SAT tutoring from the comfort of their own homes.
The catch? Because BLine offers its services for free, it needs ways to monetize its operations without compromising its quality. That’s where Vivid Vocab, and SAT vocab program, comes in.
“What Bryce Young [the president of BLineTestPrep.com] has managed to put together is unreal,” says Anthony-James of BLine’s SAT tutoring program. “We all admire his service, and we want to do everything in our power to help him grow BLine and to reach as many students as possible. Sponsoring BLine was a complete no-brainer.”
Within the next week, Vivid Vocab’s ads will begin to run on BLineTestPrep.com, helping the free SAT prep software to pay for its operations, expand its marketing capabilities, and continue to add more content and features for its students.
“Considering that we’re in the same space, but that we’re entirely non-competitive, this was an easy decision that we were all happy to make,” says Green of the sponsorship. Green’s company, Vivid Vocab, is an SAT Vocabulary learning software that uses mnemonic devices and multi-sensory imagery to help students permanently memorize the most common SAT words in a fraction of the time it takes using traditional methods. Building on a growing trend of eLearning providers to create “video game-esque” experiences from their products,” Vivid Vocab has hired teams of illustrators, developers, and professional recording artists to create a product that looks, sounds, and feels fun to use. “Having a product work isn’t enough anymore. With the tools we have available for design, functionality, and interactivity, products should be fun to use, too.”
Both BLine Test Prep and Vivid Vocab are up and running, and Green and Young hope to have their partnership in full swing by the end of the week. By forming their partnership, Green and Young hope to give students an increasing number of affordable, effective online SAT prep options.
Vivid Vocab, a new SAT vocabulary learning software, has sponsored BLineTestPrep.com, a leader in the free SAT prep space. Both companies hope to expand their user bases and to provide more affordable, high-quality test prep options to the online student community.
