News Image

“Getting cheap car insurance is not that hard. Clients should check insurance guides and get free quotes, online,” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Autocarsinsurancetips.com has released a new blog that explains how to get cheap car insurance coverage, just by following a few simple tips

For more info and free quotes, visit https://autocarsinsurancetips.com/5-tips-for-buying-inexpensive-car-insurance/

Getting affordable car insurance is not that complicated. Of course, there are strict prerequisites. Even people labeled as high-risk drivers can find ways to lower the costs. Shopping around, using the online quotes provided by http://autocarsinsurancetips.com will help drivers compare prices and choose wisely.


  • Safety is extremely important for insurance companies. And for drivers, of course. When analyzing a car, insurance companies will look for accident statistics involving that car model, recent recalls and safety ratings. Choosing a car with really good scores will help drivers get coverage easier and cheaper.
  • Keeping a clean driving record is imperative. Driving history is probably the most important factor when determining the premiums. A driver with spotless records can even get access to some discounts and save money.
  • Bundle policies. We all know that brining more business to a company will convince them to provide some discounts. This is also true for car insurance agencies. The more, the better. However, it is wise to check if bundling policies will help to get lower costs, when compared with getting individual insurance services.
  • Drive less than the average. Low mileage discounts are really valuable and can save the client a lot of money. But first, the client must ask the limits for this type of discount. One insurer may ask the client to drive less than 100.000 miles/year, while other may ask 90.000 miles.

Autocarsinsurancetips.com is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.

Sendoso Welcomes Three Industry Veterans to the Leading Sending Platform After Triple-Digit Year-Over-Year Customer Growth in 2019


“With triple-digit year-over-year customer growth, Sendoso’s rapid adoption has made it an essential tool for market leaders in technology, real estate, insurance, and more,” said Sendoso CEO and Co-Founder Kris Rudeegraap

Sendoso, the leading Sending Platform (SP) for sending anything and personalizing at scale, today announced the hirings of Qaseem Shaikh as Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Sam East as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), and Rizwan Ansary as Vice President of Product.

“With triple-digit year-over-year customer growth, Sendoso’s rapid adoption has made it an essential tool for market leaders in technology, real estate, insurance, and more,” said Sendoso CEO and Co-Founder Kris Rudeegraap. “These strategic hires join Sendoso at a key time in our company’s growth and we know they’ll play an important role in enabling our customers to make more human connections in a digital world.”

In his role as CTO, Shaikh will lead engineering development and growth for Sendoso. He previously served as vice president of engineering at Thanx and Zenefits, where he distributed engineering teams for the company’s revenue-generating businesses. An early engineer at Amazon Web Services, Shaikh brings almost two decades of experience in engineering and technical leadership.

“As we enter 2020, it is clear that there will be a larger adoption of direct marketing strategies,” said Shaikh. “The prices of digital ads continue to rise and marketing automation tools are delivering lower conversion rates. Sendoso found that businesses increased the number of items sent by 66% year-over-year in 2018. This figure signals a growing need from the market for an automated and intelligent way to execute physical marketing tactics.”

East will oversee the sales leadership of Sendoso and is responsible for company revenue growth as CRO. Prior to joining Sendoso, he served as the senior vice president of sales for Entelo, where he grew revenue 10X in three years. Originally from the U.K., East began his sales leadership career with LoopNet, which IPOed in 2006 and was acquired by CoStar Group in 2011 for almost $1 billion.

“I joined Sendoso because I believe the team is building a transformative platform for connecting with customers on a personal level,” said East. “In the new year, companies will need to enact a predictive methodology for finding new customers. Gone are the days where marketers can blast out a message and hope that it will stick. Leveraging Sendoso enables companies to find customer touch points throughout the buyer’s journey that make them stand out in a digitally fatigued world.”

Ansary will direct all product efforts at Sendoso in his role as VP of Product. He has more than a decade of experience in software product development, including seven years at Bing. Ansary also worked in various roles at CreditKarma, Postmates and HackerRank.

“In the coming year, customer experience is set to overtake price and product as the key brand differentiator,” said Ansary. “We are ready to help brands take the next step in enhancing their customer experience with Sendoso.”

The hirings cap a year of growing momentum for Sendoso that featured notable award wins, including being named a Cool Vendor in Technology Marketing by Gartner as well as winning both a 2019 “Sammy” Award and Stratus Award from the Business Intelligence Group. Sendoso was also named a Winter 2019 Leader in multiple categories including Account-Based Execution on G2 Crowd and was ranked 44th on Growjo’s Fastest Growing Companies in San Francisco.

Organization for Autism Research Launches Employment Program Nationwide Expansion


News Image

We are eager to take this first giant step to test Hire Autism’s capacity to support job seekers with autism across the country. And we are excited to have Fit First as our partner as we pilot test Jobtimize.

The Organization for Autism Research (OAR) has expanded its employment program, Hire Autism, to all 50 states following the completion of its Northern Virginia-based demonstration test.

Hire Autism helps individuals with autism find meaningful employment opportunities by supporting them through various aspects of the job search process, including career exploration to job search readiness.

To aid in setting the foundation for a successful job search, job seekers can get their resume or cover letter reviewed by seasoned professionals who provide direct feedback on job seekers’ resumes/cover letters to ensure that they are polished and ready to send to employers. Job seekers also have access to a jobs portal with autism-friendly employers and career search resources.

As part of Hire Autism’s national expansion, OAR has partnered with Fit First Technologies, a company specializing in online career matching technology, to test Fit First’s Jobtimize™ career assessment tool. This tool is free to all job seekers with autism. Based upon an individual’s behavioral traits, attitudes, interests, education and experience level, Jobtimize provides job seekers with personalized job recommendations and listings in their area. The Jobtimize test period will take place from January 13 through April 30, 2020.

“We are eager to take this first giant step to test Hire Autism’s capacity to support job seekers with autism across the country,” said Mike Maloney, OAR’s Executive Director. “And we are excited to have Fit First as our partner as we pilot test Jobtimize. Together we hope to deliver even higher quality support to individuals with autism as they look to find meaningful employment.”

“We are delighted to be participating with OAR in this breakthrough initiative,” said Jan G. van der Hoop, President, Fit First Technologies. “We’ve seen firsthand how beginning the career exploration process from a different starting point – an understanding of a person’s behavioral compatibility with a wide array of roles, rather than an inventory of their skills and experience – can actually lead to very different outcomes that benefit both the individual and the employer. The outcomes are even more dramatic for segments of the population that have traditionally faced barriers.”

All OAR resources, including Hire Autism, are free to all. Interested individuals are encouraged to create a profile on Hire Autism’s website where they can apply directly to job opportunities and request assistance with resume or cover letter development. Following a successful registration, individuals will receive an email with a link to access Jobtimize.

Questions and inquiries can be sent to Amanda Rioux at arioux@researchautism.org.

About OAR: The Organization for Autism Research (OAR) is a national charity dedicated to raising money for practical research into the challenges of autism. OAR is established in accordance with section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code and is incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia (EIN#54-2062167). As provided for under Virginia law, a copy of OAR’s financial statement is available upon request from the State Division of Consumer Affairs in the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services in Richmond, VA. Donations to OAR are tax-deductible.

About Fit First Technologies: Our mission is to make hiring practices and career exploration easier, more human and more efficient for everyone. Our behavioral job-matching science accurately predicts job fit, guiding both job-seekers and the organizations that employ them, to better choices. Because our products start with job fit, we are able to focus on the whole person and their potential, rather than being constrained by what may be in their resume. We take a lot of pride in the fact that our technology opens new doors for jobseekers, students, and those who have traditionally faced employment barriers. All in all, our platforms are helping to build a more functional, efficient workforce ecosystem.

Rex Gryphon’s Highly-Anticipated Rex Baron Survivors Kitchen/VRex Lounge Opens in South Florida


By creating and mastering the ReStory, a new category in hospitality, our REX posts offer a high quality, healthy and delicious menu with a storied, rustic, new world cross-generational atmosphere that engages and stimulates,”

Ready to excite, astound and surprise residents and visitors this holiday season, Rex Gryphon (RG) Restaurant Group has opened its newest REX (Restaurant, Entertainment, Xperience) destination: Rex Baron Survivors Kitchen/VRex Lounge at Town Center at Boca Raton. “Where the art of food meets the art of survival”, the “nothing like it” interactive, multi-sensory experiential destination meeting place, dining haven, watering hole and hi-tech virtual reality escape lounge is the second in Rex Gryphon’s network of casual, upscale “vigilante posts” set for national expansion.

Rex Baron is perfect for lunch, dinner and late-night dining as well as private celebrations, corporate events, and team building. The destination location is where ‘urbanites’ are encouraged to create and share their own experiences. The food and cocktails surprise, and visits to the hi-tech HD Sports Hangar or ‘Lamborghini-level’ 2,500-square-foot VRex Lounge (with 32 virtual reality and simulation stations) engages survivors (the guests) in “thrill and chill” seeking “bucket list” escapes. Survivor Sundays will feature a variety of programming, including live entertainment, car and motorcycle club meet-ups, fashion shows, art shows, nonprofit fundraisers and more.

Everyone Becomes Part of the New World Re-Story

The 8,500-square-foot avant-garde post-apocalyptic themed restaurant concept — where food, culture, community, interactive tech and art thrive — engages guests (aka survivors) with characters (aka vigilantes, the “good guys…and gals”) who together are building a peaceful, inclusive new world. As its sister outpost to Rex Gryphon’s Mad Rex in Philadelphia, the South Florida outpost is named for its own lead vigilante Rex Baron and features a collection of authentic fashion-infused vigilante persona art exhibits (clothed in post-apocalypse recovered remnants of Dolce & Gabbana, Louis Vuitton, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Prada, John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Isaac Sellam and Carol Christian Poell couture) each with their personal stories.

Guests themselves become part of the South Florida post’s ReStory (Rex Gryphon’s term for restaurant story), as they dine and get to know more about Rex Baron and his 18 vigilante character personas (nine men and nine women) who each play an impactful role in the New World. Under Rex Baron’s leadership, the vigilantes are helping create a sanctuary for all survivors (including the animals) by protecting them against a lawless society while replenishing the earth, health and wellness in the New World. To help survivors spot and learn about each vigilante boasting “style so good it intimidates,” guests will be provided a pocket-size gallery guide as an app is currently under development.

“By creating and mastering the ReStory, a new category in hospitality, our REX posts offer a high quality, healthy and delicious menu with a storied, rustic, new world cross-generational atmosphere that engages and stimulates,” shared hospitality industry veteran Michael Norris who leads the development of Rex Gryphon’s vigilante posts. “By debuting this holiday season, there will be a lot more entertaining opportunity for South Florida residents, businesses and visitors from Miami to Stuart.”

Food Amongst the Art…and Conversation

Driven by Rex Gryphon Culinary Director Ralph P. Fernandez and Rex Baron Executive Chef MJ Smith, the Survivors (Scratch) Kitchen’s Modern American cuisine is based on classic world techniques with new and old-world flavors with a focus on high-quality locally-sourced ingredients; fresh vegetables and highest-grade organic meats, seafood, poultry and spice blends and “unusually served” themed cocktails.

Guests indulge in a Survivors Menu inspired by Mother Nature and the human instinct of eating well and spoiling palates. Seated at literally the “hottest tables” in town, diners can be their own chef, cooking at their table on a 600-million-year-old Pink Himalayan Salt Block heated to 350C or a Black Lava Rock heated to 650C. An in-house butcher brings out the finest steaks, seafood, poultry and gives guests tips on personal seasoning and block/rock cooking that offers many health benefits. To prepare their meals, those choosing the Hunters (Meat, Poultry, Seafood) Table cooked on the Black Lava Rock or Foragers (Vegetable) Table cooked on the Pink Himalayan Salt Block, select from three collections of signature gluten-free sauces: Vigilante (Meat), Outpost (Fish) and Grasslands (Vegan).

For the Adventurous to the Classic Food Lover…A Varied Menu for Every Preference

Executive Chef MJ Smith shares that there are plenty of vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options on the menu, with allergens noted by each dish. Starters include Fried Green Tomatoes, Steakhouse Chips, Cauliflower Bites, and Buffalo Chicken Dip. Featured salads include the REX Southwest Wedge, Ancient Grain and Grilled Caesar. Chef selections that wow include the Prime Rib Melt, Laporte Pan Seared Scallops and Southwestern Rigatoni. In addition, there Is the Rex Baron Burger, Survivor Vegan Burger and a Way Beyond Burger. Signature sides include Sherry Shallot Fingerling Potatoes, Crispy Smashed Potato and Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese.

All of this can be topped off by Rex Baron’s choice of 16 signature cocktails, some emboldened with fire, others presented in post-apocalyptic barware or a few playfully “administered” in Camel Back “Survivor Bags” perched on rolling frames. The latter enables guests to move to and from the indoor sanctuary and outside terrace dining, the VREX Lounge, and the HD Sports Hangar. Among the most popular libations are Flame Thrower, The Vigilante, Tea-Rex, Gryphon, Ginslinger, Survivor Espresso and Salvation Sangria.

Begin or Finish Dining with a Virtual Reality “Bucket List” Escape

With Never Before 5k VR Encounters Available to the Public

When guests want to step out of their world and their day-to-day routine to replenish or invigorate, they can step into the VRex Lounge (with full-service bar) for their choice of Oculus, Valve Index and XTAL experiences. Venturing generations beyond the tech available at arcade-level experiences, the Rex Gryphon VRex Lounge advances this hospitality genre by featuring never before 5k virtual reality encounters available to the public. Rex Gryphon’s latest-generation VRex Lounge is the only public VR venue in the world offering the XTAL, the world’s first VR headset with AutoEye and embedded Leap Motion with 5k resolution. Exclusively outfitted for Rex Gryphon by VRgineers based in Prague, the VRex Lounge brings to the U.S. the company’s highest level patented technology Vrgineers develops solely to deliver the highest level simulations for corporate, medical, pilot and aviation trainings.

At the VR bar and the intimate VR Chamber located behind glass waterfalls, guests can take a walk in space, venture on a safari, leap from a plane, dive the oceans, walk with dinosaurs, swim with the turtles in the Galapagos, pilot a plane, hit the track in a high-performance race car, tour cities and countries, etc.

“We are excited to welcome Rex Gryphon’s newest Vigilante Post to Town Center at Boca Raton,” shared Town Center General Manager Sal Saldaña. “We are certain this vibrant, high-energy new dining and entertainment destination will become an instant favorite for our shoppers and visitors.”

Located in the Nordstrom wing at Town Center at Boca Raton (6000 Glades Road, Boca Raton, Fla.) and offering inside and outside terrace dining and bar services, Rex Baron is open seven days a week, on Sundays to Thursdays from 11 a.m. to midnight and Fridays and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Reservations are not required but can be made via http://www.TheRexBaron.com, Open Table or by calling (561) 447-6993.

Why Car Insurance Quotes Are Really Important For Drivers


News Image

“Getting quotes online will help you find the best coverage options available in your area. Just by spending several minutes online, comparing prices and you can save hundreds of dollars” said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Compare-autoinsurance.org has released a new blog post that explains the importance of obtaining and comparing online car insurance quotes.

For more info and free quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/how-important-are-online-car-insurance-quotes/

Car insurance quotes have become a necessity. They provide valuable estimates and allow the customer to select a policy that meets his financial expectations. Now, customers can get multiple quotes online, by simply accessing http://compare-autoinsurance.org.

Nobody can deny the importance of price estimates. Without the proper knowledge, we would be tempted to buy the first policy we find. There are several reasons for which car insurance quotes are really important:


  • They provide accurate estimates. Contrary to many people’s beliefs, online car insurance quotes can be really accurate. The tricks is to fill in a form that has multiple questions for each relevant category: demographic and social factors, driving experience and record, car make and model and coverage options. In order to get accurate quotes, a client must provide accurate and honest info.
  • They are easy to obtain. Online quotes can be obtained from any place of the world, as long as the client has a good internet connection and a compatible device. In this way, a client can skip numerous meetings with agents and face numerous weather and traffic adversities. Online quotes are not dependent on a shop’s schedule and clients can get them at any hour of day or night,
  • They are free. Online quotes are usually offered for free by insurance companies that want to provide full transparency on their prices. Using an insurance agent involves paying him, if not directly, then indirectly, from an obtained policy. Companies pass the agent’s salary cost to their clients.
  • They can be easily customized. The submit form used to obtain quotes has numerous customization options. This allows the client to modify some coverage parameters, like increasing or decreasing coverage amount or deductibles, and get a policy suitable for his budget.

Compare-autoinsurance.org is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.

Summit Counseling Center Receives $5,000 Raised by Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club


Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club Presents Check to The Summit Counseling Center

Back Row: Ashton Powers, Shawn Murphy, Cathy Murphy, Doug Yearwood; Front Row: Amber Jones, Margaux Guillet, Lauritz Adriansen, Daniel Urshansky

It is heart-warming to receive this generous donation from the players and families of Alpharetta Ambush. These funds will be used to subsidize counseling services for The Summit’s school-based counseling program.

As part of their 9th annual Fall Fundraiser, the Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club donated $5,000 to The Summit Counseling Center in November. The Summit Counseling Group offers professional school counseling services and supports the mental health of children and their families. The Fall Fundraiser revolved around selling game day jerseys, that feature the logo of The Summit Counseling Center, to members of the Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club teams. There was a 100% participation rate from all 42 of the soccer club teams and a number of independent donations were also received.

To unveil an over-sized presentation check in the amount of $5,000, four Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club players visited the corporate offices of The Summit Counseling Center. The players prepared a shared speech and collaborated to present their donation to members of The Summit Counseling Center team. They were joined by Club President, Doug Yearwood.

“Along with the Ambush coaching staff, we are constantly trying to find ways to do something different with our players other than the normal ‘soccer stuff,’ ” said Doug Yearwood, Club President, Alpharetta Ambush Soccer Club. “And that’s why this day each year is my favorite day of the year. Watching young, motivated, enthusiastic Ambush players of all ages visit an intimidating corporate environment, stand in front of adults they’ve just met for the first time in their lives, and deliver perfectly executed speech… well let’s just say that’s as rewarding as watching one of our teams win the league or win a tournament! I’m very proud of each and every Ambush player at the Club and they never cease to amaze me!”

“It is heart-warming to receive this generous donation from the players and families of Alpharetta Ambush,” says Shawn Murphy, Director of Development, The Summit Counseling Center. “These funds will be used to subsidize counseling services for The Summit’s school-based counseling program, allowing kids in the community to receive counseling services that they otherwise could not afford.”

The Summit will also be providing Signs of Suicide Trusted Adult training to the Ambush coaching staff on January 10th. The role of a trusted adult is to build rapport and trust with the youth, routinely check in, invite difficult conversations, and connect the student and family to mental health resources if needed. “A trusted adult is any person that is invested in a youth’s life. It might be their aunt/uncle, coach, camp director, dance instructor, teacher, youth leader, or next door neighbor,” stated Whitney Emrick, Mental Health Awareness Coordinator, The Summit Counseling Center. “Our goal is to equip every trusted adult in our community with the tools and resources needed to respond to a youth mental health crisis.”

Bellus3D ARC is a configurable arrangement of up to seven ARC smart depth-sensing WiFI cameras. Bellus3D ARC was developed in response to the market demand by a wide variety of industries that require facial measurements for a personalized and custom product fit. Initial target markets for the ARC solution include dental, eyewear, cosmetics, medical, virtual and augmented reality, and gaming. At CES 2020, ARC will be demonstrated using the seven-camera configuration providing full-head scans of all attendees visiting their booth.

Bellus3D ARC is the first mobile, multi-camera, 3D capturing system that can be used without the need of an operator. The system consists of a Windows-based host device and a configurable array of 3D vision cameras arranged in a semicircular arc surrounding a subject’s head. Each ARC 3D vision camera contains a high-res RGB sensor and IR sensors with a structured light projector, and an embedded mobile processor running on Android OS. The cameras capture and process data in parallel from different camera angles and send the data wirelessly to the host device. The host device merges data from all cameras to generate a full head model in a few seconds using Bellus3D patented proprietary face scanning software. The Bellus3D ARC system can be configured as a four camera system for face-only capture or expanded up to a seven camera configuration for full head capture. The included configuration mounting frame incorporates a standard VESA mount for easy mounting on industry standard armatures and desktop stands. The ARC camera is also available as a single-camera solution, which requires the user to to turn their head during scanning as with the previous generation of Bellus3D face scanning cameras.

A Windows developer API is provided to allow third-party developers to create innovative apps that require high-quality 3D face scans.The API uses a WebSocket interface to enable developers to quickly and easily incorporate Bellus ARC 3D face scans into their products and services using web-based programming languages, such as Javascript.

“The ARC solution is the next step in the goal of Bellus3D which is to allow product companies to bring a high level of personalization to their products by ensuring they fit the exact contours of the human face. There is no other solution available that can deliver such a high quality face scan in seconds with the click of a single button,” said Eric Chen, CEO of Bellus3D, Inc.

The company is demonstrating the power and ease of use of the ARC solution by providing free 3D face scans to interested CES attendees.

Bellus3D ARC will be available for developers in Q1, 2020. ARC multi-camera configurations start at under $2,500.
