Emigrant, MT, 23rd February 2023, ZEXPRWIRE, EcoPoxy is a revolutionary polymer that offers an eco-friendly, sustainable, and biodegradable solution for coatings and projects. With the help of this advanced material, woodworkers and woodworking enthusiasts can now make their homes and business projects more eco-friendly without sacrificing quality or performance.

For many years, conventional epoxies have been used in construction and DIY projects for their superior durability, strength, and waterproofing properties. Unfortunately, these materials are not always environmentally friendly, as they are made from toxic chemicals that can harm the environment when released into waterways or landfills. Because of this, many woodworking enthusiasts have been looking for better alternatives.

EcoPoxy from All American Woodworks is the answer to this dilemma. EcoPoxy is made from a combination of plant-based materials and non-toxic resin, which makes it one of the most sustainable epoxies on the market today. This innovative material is also biodegradable, making it the perfect choice for woodworking projects that won’t have a negative impact on the environment.

Not only does EcoPoxy provide the same exceptional properties as conventional epoxies, but it also uses renewable resources to create a product that is sustainable and completely biodegradable. This means that when exposed to naturally occurring enzymes in soil or water, they will break down over time into harmless components with no hazardous waste left behind. Furthermore, the production of EcoPoxy requires less energy compared to regular epoxies.

In addition to being eco-friendly and biodegradable, EcoPoxy also offers superior protection for woodworking projects, like river tables, home decor, and furniture. It creates a clear and glossy finish that maximizes the beauty of the wood itself, all while providing superior durability. It is durable enough to withstand outdoor conditions while still remaining flexible, so it can be used on a wide variety of surfaces. The result is a strong, long-lasting seal that can help protect your woodworking projects for years to come.

“Give your project a sustainable edge with EcoPoxy products! Our store offers biodegradable alternatives to traditional epoxy options that not only help the environment but also give you top-notch performance and durability. Make sure your next endeavor is eco-friendly while still retaining its strength—come visit us today for an environmentally friendly choice in adhesives!” – Steve Sirois, the company’s founder.

EcoPoxy is suitable for use on any surface, including wood, drywall, metal, and concrete; plus, its non-toxic formula makes it safe to handle without protective equipment. The most popular applications include furniture refinishing, outdoor waterproofing sealant applications (e.g decks), countertop resurfacing, bath fixture installation and repairs, boat repairs, restorations, etc. Plus, because EcoPoxy’s unique formula allows for easy self-leveling on horizontal surfaces such as tables and counters, there’s no need for extra labor after application!

All American Woodworks has a lot of EcoPoxy products to choose from. Some of these include:

• EcoPoxy EcoTrowel: The EcoPoxy EcoTrowel is mainly used for large-scale projects and work with larger surface areas. It is ideal for filling cracks in concrete floors and wood, filling uneven surfaces, creating beautiful canvas art, and floor coating installations.
• EcoPoxy Metallic Color Pigments: These metallic pigments are made to be combined with epoxy to produce beautiful, captivating effects. They can be used for a variety of projects such as concrete countertops, art installations, and custom furniture designs.
• EcoPoxy FlowCast Clear Casting Resin: The FlowCast Kit is a game-changing resin that allows people to customize and create any imaginable color, texture, or effect. Whether thin or thick, the two parts form an impenetrable bond for utmost clarity in any casting project. The FlowCast Resin is perfect for creating custom tables and other unique designs.
• EcoPoxy GlowPoxy: This GloPoxy offers a luminous glow-in-the-dark effect that can be used to light up a room or bring attention to a specific area. It is ideal for creating signs, wall features, and other custom designs with an eye-catching glow.

EcoPoxy also helps people save money in the long run because it can be applied with just one coat and will last significantly longer than traditional epoxies. This means fewer trips to the store for more supplies and a smaller environmental footprint in the process. Also, EcoPoxy is easy to use and comes with comprehensive instructions, so woodworkers can be sure that they are getting the best results from their woodworking projects. All American Woodworks’ EcoPoxy makes it easier than ever to enjoy woodworking without compromising the environment. With EcoPoxy, people can be sure that their projects will last and look great for years to come!

Chicago, Illinois, 23rd February 2023, ZEXPRWIRE, Jacob Nicotra was a featured speaker at a forum called “Breaking into Tech,” hosted by Career Karma. Jacob Nicotra is a software developer at Google. He started his current position about 9 months ago after completing a 6 month online Software Engineering program through App Academy. He graduated from college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Biochemistry. He originally intended to pursue medicine. He worked in a few medical clinics, performed scientific research in labs, and planned on attending medical school; however he developed a passion for coding after being exposed to programming languages in school.

Mr. Nicotra began to view software development and the tech industry as a disruptive force which was rapidly altering job functions in many industries, including scientific research and medicine. He was particularly impressed with the benefits that certain software programs brought, such as automation. After deciding that he wanted to be a part of this big change, he committed to a career switch. The “Breaking into Tech” event was hosted by Career Karma, a community of peers, mentors, and coaches that provide career advice and help people to land their dream jobs.

Jacob Nicotra was the featured speaker in a one-hour discussion hosted by a representative from Career Karma, which included an introduction by Mr. Nicotra about himself and his career followed by a question and answer session with the host and audience asking questions. During the hour-long session, he discussed many topics with an audience primarily composed of people who were seeking to transition from various industries into the tech industry. Part of the time was spent with Mr. Nicotra offering tips on learning how to code, landing a job in tech, how to navigate the interview process, and what it is like to work for a big tech company. The focus of the discussion was on how to successfully transition into the tech and software engineering arena. Jacob talked about his journey from science and medicine to software development, including the route that he took via an online software engineering bootcamp called App Academy.

Some of the other relevant issues that Jacob Nicotra touched on were what it has been like working as a software developer who has been contracted by Google. He also remarked on the recent downturn, which has had a significant effect on the tech industry and specifically large tech companies such as Google, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Twitter, and Facebook. Many of these companies engaged in overhiring before and during the pandemic, which resulted in an inflated workforce and in turn has led to a seemingly outsized impact on large tech companies. Mr. Nicotra went on to explain that as the economy continues to improve there will be an ongoing need for new workers in tech. 

Since Career Karma is an association aimed at helping others to land their ideal job, Jacob Nicotra was transparent when answering questions about the financial and time cost of breaking into tech. He explained what he spent during his journey transitioning from the medical / science field into tech as well as how long the change took. He also was forthcoming about how many interviews he took part in before landing his first job in tech and the difficulties and rejections along the way. When asked about some of his biggest challenges, Mr. Nicotra mentioned having to get over a sense of “impostor syndrome” when first starting in Coding Bootcamp. He described how at first he had a sense of not belonging but quickly recognized that everyone in his cohort was essentially coming from the same place. Additionally, he commented on the “uphill battle” involved when first starting off in coding, but also related how learning “each new language or technology or framework” makes the next one much easier and how the uphill battle started to level off as he continued learning. 

Jacob Nicotra went on to discuss some of the general skills that helped him along the way but that are applicable to a career in many fields. For instance, he shared that he learned through his various experiences that “maintaining focus and determination” were required to be successful in any endeavor. He also talked about the difference between “soft skills” and “hard skills,” how each is valuable in different ways, and how an interviewee can demonstrate those skills during an interview. He offered practical strategies for “balancing the demands of a new job and continuing to learn and grow in your field.” To be a competitive candidate as a full stack engineer, it is necessary to be proficient in new versions of technologies that continue to emerge. As someone who has secured a position at a large tech company, Mr. Nicotra also commented on the importance of pay transparency in the tech industry. It is becoming an increasingly standard practice for employers to disclose the expected compensation for positions. In general, “tech workers are very open about pay, and this openness tends to give more power back to employees rather than large corporations because it informs everyone of what a fair salary looks like.”

Salt Lake City, Utah, 23rd February 2023, ZEXPRWIRE, J.C. Holt, Domestic Operations Director at O.U.R. (Operation Underground Railroad) was featured in Influential People Magazine, where he discussed a number of important topics regarding human trafficking, child exploitation, and crimes related to sex offense. Influential People Magazine is a leading international business media news source, and a promotional marketing vehicle magazine that features and spotlights business owners, entrepreneurs, invisible heroes, leaders, influencers, celebrities, and humanitarian resources to the media and readers. Its content encourages readers and entrepreneurs to apply actionable advice and develop businesses into industry-leading organizations.

The mission of Operation Underground Railroad is to shine a light worldwide on the global issue of child sex trafficking and exploitation, and in so doing rescue more children from slavery and assist law enforcement to seek justice for those who violate children. They also place survivors on a path to recovery by partnering with vetted aftercare providers. During his interview, J.C. Holt explained what constitutes the sex trafficking of children and who generally is involved with it:

“I can cite from the CDC that by their definition, human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery in which victims are subjected to force, fraud or coercion for the purpose of commercial sex, debt bondage, or involuntary labor. This is a good summary statement, I feel, and would also note that while O.U.R.’s specific focus is on ending the trafficking of children, the victims of trafficking can include young children, teens, men and women and the criteria for what to do when you see or suspect is similar or the same.”

Mr. Holt also discussed how best to report any instances of trafficking and what signs to watch for in a trafficking situation and the difference between trafficking and exploitation, stating: 

“The U.S. Dept. of State describes sexual exploitation as a person profiting from the use of another person’s body in a sexual manner in order to benefit (financially or otherwise). In general, the perpetrator of sexual exploitation takes advantage of their victim’s vulnerable or dependent state, including addictions to drugs or alcohol.

Although the forms of exploitation are continually changing, the Dept. of State says, the methods stay largely the same. An adult will target a child, trick them into trusting them, and then abuse their power for their own needs. This is known as ‘grooming’ and it is used for both criminal exploitation and sexual exploitation. For example, in the documentary Operation Underground Railroad recently produced, “It’s Happening Right Here,” the data shows reports of exploitation have doubled during the period of COVID lockdown, with much of the grooming occurring through online contact, such as social media and especially via online games that include chat functions, allowing perpetrators to feign interest and friendship and to groom prospective victims through assumed identities within the chat functions of online video games. As parents, we need to be more aware than ever before of the dangers posed in our own homes through smartphones and internet games.”

While assuring readers that the police take seriously any reports of human trafficking, Mr. Holt also commented on a news report about a woman who said that the police had dismissed her report, claiming that traffickers are nearly always people who are known to the victim, and that being targeted by strangers or through the use of a “date rape” drug might “make for a Hollywood plot line” but is not the way traffickers really operate. 

“It is accurate according to multiple studies and reports that the majority of perpetrators are known to the victim, and especially to a child victim. For example, a study from RAIN gives interesting statistics, such as confirming from surveys conducted from 2012 to approximately 2016 that of more than 1000 sexual violence incidents followed, 59% of perpetrators were acquaintances and 34% were family members, with only 7% being strangers. 

In all, it appears that perpetrators are known to their victims as much as 70% of the time. However, this is far from true of all situations, especially when the aspects of contact via social media and internet gaming come into play. In our opinion it is important to make all families and communities aware of all these situations and statistics, and to not be dismissive of anyone’s report or claim without due investigation. Again, I would recommend that you do your research and escalate any situation you must to ensure the response to a situation you witness or experience is appropriate and accurate.” 

Overall, J.C. Holt’s expertise and experience have been invaluable in helping Operation Underground Railroad achieve its mission to end the trafficking of children. As a private organization that works closely with law enforcement agencies across the United States, O.U.R is committed to stopping the sexual exploitation of all vulnerable people, with a focus on helping children. Through partnerships with local authorities, funding for resources, and education about trafficking and exploitation, O.U.R. is making a real difference in the fight against this horrific crime.

About J.C. Holt, Domestic Operations Director at Operation Underground Railroad

J.C. Holt is a retired law enforcement officer and PIO. Currently the Domestic Operations Director at O.U.R. (Operation Underground Railroad). In his role, Holt heads up a team whose focus is on building relationships and support for all Domestic operations of O.U.R. with U.S. law enforcement agencies. As a primary example, O.U.R. provides funding for resources to law enforcement agencies across the United States to assist them in their efforts of investigating human trafficking and child exploitation and sex offense-oriented crimes. Some of these resources include computer hardware and software, training scholarships and Electronic Storage Detection K9’s. This greatly helps these agencies with budgetary shortfalls and empowers a model of helping our law enforcement officers across the country.

Holt and his team receive several reports each month from these law enforcement agencies they assist in highlighting their work in this space with the resources their group provides. Because O.U.R. works only as a supporting group with local law enforcement and is a private organization, his team works to provide continual education about what constitutes trafficking or exploitation, and when it is witnessed (or suspected), as well as what community and family members can do for the most effective and immediate support possible.

Salford, UK, 23rd February 2023, ZEXPRWIRE, Manchester Private Hospital has introduced a revolutionary body contouring technique and cosmetic surgery treatment, Vaser Hi-Def. This procedure works efficiently in sculpting different areas of the body, like the buttocks, chest, and stomach.

Vaser (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance), also called Assisted High Definition Lipo Sculpture, is a minimally invasive procedure that eliminates stubborn fat. The result is a defined, toned, and aesthetically pleasing body.

According to the spokesperson, “In this treatment, a small probe is used to melt fat through ultrasound energy. Local or general anaesthetic is used based on the area being treated and small incisions are made based on the goals of the patient.”

Vaser Hi-Def treatment is ideal for those unable to get rid of stubborn fat, even with exercise and diet. It helps them in creating the chiselled, defined appearance they always wanted.

“The beauty of this treatment is that it removes fat from a particular part, all the while enhancing the other part because of the fat transfer,” continued the spokesperson. “Our clients experience no pain throughout the surgery and only mild discomfort for the initial few days after the treatment. It is a safe treatment that provides amazing results.”

This procedure is slightly different from other VASER treatments as it is created to focus on the sculpting and toning of the body by removing deposits of fat around the muscles. “It must be conducted by a specialised and experienced doctor to get the body of your dreams. Dr Singh is one of the most qualified Vaser surgeons in our hospital and a leading Vaser Hi-Def procedure surgeon,” concluded the spokesperson.

Manchester Private Hospital offers both Vaser Hi-Def and Vaser liposuction treatments, along with a range of finance options for the clients.
