“It’s all about helping businesses grow and succeed,” said the owner of National Lift Trucks. “We understand what it is to be a small business, that works hard and eventually grows into a big business, and we understand the daily struggles in this type of transformation, so we want to do the best we can to offer our assistance and guidance, as well as top of the line products to choose from. We are the best place to buy forklifts in Sydney, and we also provide the best forklift service in Sydney.”

“In today’s market, there is a great deal of competition from every side, and you really have to work to set yourself apart,” said the owner. “That’s why we take the approach that we’re not just trying to sell you something, but we are your friend; your ally. We’ve been with a lot of businesses from the time they were just small businesses operating from a garage, to their growth into big companies, and we’ve followed their success, and worked alongside them, so to see that kind of success makes us feel like we’ve been successful as well.”

The motto of National Lift Trucks is to “Think Growth. Think National,” and this is something they live by daily, whether it be the growth of their own business into a national corporation, or the growth of other businesses they work with along the way.

Apple Map Glitch Dublin Airport "Relocated" to Farm reports Dublin Airport Car Hire

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 27, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA -- Mapping software created confusion as to where the airport is exactly Roughly six miles outside the capital lies Dublin Airport. A iOS 6 map application says it is in different place. In fact the position given is actually a farm in Dundrum, located approximately three miles south of the city.

Justice Minister Alan Shatter stated that the map was wrong. “Clearly the designation is not only wrong but is dangerously misleading in that it could result in a pilot, unfamiliar with the area, in an emergency situation and without other available information, attempting a landing.” Shatter also stated that he had contacted Apple regarding the error and requested that it “urgently be corrected.”

“Just in case anybody is confused Dublin airport is not moving to the south side,” they tweeted. The airport was not the only thing that Apple got wrong in Dublin. It also misplaced the cities zoo.

The zoo, located on the grounds of Phoenix Park, shows that the zoo is in Temple Bar which is an enclave of Dubin that is full of bars and nightclubs.

Although some are making jokes about the Apple errors, others do not see cause for laughter. Many people in the Republic of Ireland are taking to social media to express their concerns for the mapping issue.

Apple stated that it would be working hard to improve the app, and was appreciative of the feedback from customers. Apple chose to create their own mapping system after deciding to part ways with Google’s mapping system. The app was created using information from TomTom and other navigation programs.

CarCameraDVR.com Helps Drivers Avoid Being Cheated Out of a No Claims Bonus

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 31, 2012 ) Shenzhen, Guangdong -- Driving these days is expensive, and it’s getting more expensive all the time. In addition to the rising costs of fuel and road tax, car insurance seems to be constantly rising in price. A good no-claims bonus can mitigate these costs, but every day drivers lose their no claims bonuses due to accidents that weren’t their fault. The insurance company investigators rule against them, and as a result their premiums shoot up. Many drivers are now taking precautions against being blamed for causing an accident by investing in an inexpensive digital video recording device for their car.

One company that is making waves in this area is CarCameraDVR.com, an online retailer selling in-car digital video recorders and other in-car electronics. They are gaining a huge reputation for selling good quality car cameras at market leading rates.

The site has a comprehensive range of car cameras and each listing is replete with high quality digital imagery, product specification, detailed product description and consumer reviews.

They also sell other types of motoring electronics, including car GPS tracker as a security measure to guard against theft, GPS navigation equipment, and an airplane style “black box” recorder to preserve accident data.

CarCameraDVR.com sells in-car electronics direct to consumers, but they also sell wholesale. They have a clear policy of keeping prices as low as possible, both in their direct and wholesale operations.

A spokesperson for the site said:

“Investigating who is at fault in an auto accident is an incredibly difficult thing for both the police and insurance companies. In the absence of any clear video evidence it often comes down to one party’s word against another. It’s not unusual for a driver to lose a no-claims bonus on their insurance that has been earned as a result of decades of careful driving. This can be a huge financial blow. However now that car camera systems are available for a low price, there’s no need for drivers to be at the mercy of insurance company investigators. Drivers can simply present video evidence of the accident. Taking this simple, low cost step could wind up saving you hundreds every year. In extreme cases, it could even help you avoid an unjust criminal conviction. In todays litigious society, gathering video evidence of your driving is a wise precaution, especially since the units that we sell are so affordable.”

Free Car Insurance Quotes are Available from Newly Launched System on FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247.com

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 29, 2012 )
Los Angeles, CA -- FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247.com has just launched an advanced car insurance comparison system that allows visitors to the website to get the lowest rates possible on their car insurance.

The free car insurance quotes can save drivers both time and money. Traditionally, finding lower rates on auto insurance meant making multiple phone calls and visits to various companies. Now, with the new online system, people will be able to find cheap car insurance quickly, easily, and all from the comfort of home.

As any driver knows all too well, car insurance can be extremely expensive; oftentimes it is even more than a monthly car payment amount. In fact, research has found that many American drivers are paying up to 30 percent more than they should on their auto insurance, due primarily to the fact that they have not taken the time to compare rates. Since so many people are still out of work, and budgets remain so tight across the country, the timing of this new comparison system from www.FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247.com could not be any better.

“Many drivers have difficulty searching for cheap auto insurance because they don’t know how to choose auto insurance policies that offer the coverage they need,” an article on the company’s user-friendly website noted, adding that this is hardly surprising because auto insurance companies offer many policies that provide different benefits to consumers.

“One way to resolve this problem is to compare free car insurance quotes on our car insurance comparison website. This is the case because we offer a customizable search engine that can help you simplify your search for the auto insurance coverage needed to cover against property damage, personal injury and other common driving liabilities.”

Using the FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247 car insurance comparison tool is easy; drivers simply need to visit the site at any time and enter in their zip code at the top of the home page. This will start the process that will allow them to check out numerous quotes from the nation’s top auto insurance companies.

In addition to helping people get the lowest rates possible on their car insurance, the FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247 website also offers helpful tips and advice on how to make the premiums as cheap as possible. For example, driving a less expensive vehicle can help immensely, as can maintaining a clean driving record.

About FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247.com:

FreeCarInsuranceQuotes247.com allows drivers to quickly find the cheapest car insurance companies in their area. All that visitors to the website need to do is submit a zip code, and a list of the best and cheapest providers will be prompted.

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 31, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA- The nation’s largest truck Market, Texas, and Ford have a longstanding relationship to King Ranch, a Texas Institution. In order to celebrate the long-standing relationship between the three parties, the 2013 F-150 King Range which was uncovered at the 2012 State Fair of Texas.

"While others are just starting to understand the appeal of Texas innovation and luxury, we're proud to have worked with our longtime partners at King Ranch who helped define both," said Ford General Marketing Manager Dave Mondragon. "The latest F-150 King Ranch extends this honor and tradition."

The new model will carry many of the F-Series’ signature features.

The F-150 King Range will feature a three-bar grille and 20-inch machined aluminum wheel, that is sure to impress. Monotone paint is, of course, available, and customers can also add King Ranch chrome for luxury cues.

The King Ranch model’s seats are Chaparral leather, to complement an all-new black interior. The model comes fully loaded with smart technology like the MyFord Touch, as well as standard ambient lighting for the interior.

It is not all about looking good in the King Ranch, as it boasts a 5.0-liter V8, or the segment-exclusive 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine.

Each engine is fuel-saving electronic six-speed automatic transmission.

"King Ranch is built on the heritage, hard work and innovation of seven generations of King family descendants and employees, just like what Ford has built into its F-Series pickup trucks," said King Ranch Chairman Jamey Clement.

"It's why we trust Ford as a genuine partner and why we depend on a fleet of 260 Ford trucks to get the job done every day at King Ranch."

King Ranch is a 1,300 square mile Texas landscape, making it one of the largest ranges in the world. Ford Motor Company teamed up with King Range in 2001 with the 2001 King Ranch SuperCrew. It was considered to be the most upscale model at the time.

The 2013 F-150 King Range is one of 10 models updated in the F-Series lineup, and includes XL, XLT, Lariat, Platinum, SVT Raptor, and F-150 Limited.

Survey finds Top Vehicle Colors This Year Are White and Silver reports Car Covers Pal

(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 31, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA- Pittsburgh-based automotive paint maker PPG Industries Inc. says 22% on cars and trucks made for the 2012 model year were painted white, retaining the color’s slight lead from last year. The color edged past still second-place silver, used for 20% of 2012 models. Rounding out the list of the top five color choices worldwide are black, gray, and red.

As a paint supplier to General Motors, Ford, BMW, and other automakers, PPG is positioned to track the most popular colors. The popularity of pickup trucks, at 55% of North American production through August, boosts white in the rankings. A quarter of all pickup trucks come in white, compared with 19% of midsized cars made in North America. The reason? Many businesses prefer white for their pickup trucks, since it makes their logos and on-truck ads stand out more sharply.

PPG's manager of color styling for car makers Jane Harrington attributes the rebound of white, which had seen its popularity wane since the 1980s, to the natural connotations with glossy high-tech devices, such as think of Apple stores and iMacs. The rise in popularity is partially due to the increasing varieties of white now used. Types of white ranging from the vibrant and bright to rich and creamy shades can be found on a variety of vehicle types.

Harrington adds silver’s popularity likely comes for its suggestion of high-tech and designers’ favoring it for its ability to highlight every aspect of a car’s appearance. "Silver looks great on any design," she says.

In developing its color offerings, paint makers start working with manufacturers on color choices three or four years before a new model debuts. Manufacturers lock in their color choices for a vehicle two or three years before going into production. PPG monitors color trends from the worlds of fashion, interior design, and elsewhere. Harrington says after seeing purple prominently featured at a recent Parisian home color show, she went to work on a purplish-gray auto paint.

PPG is now showing automakers 64 color options ors for the 2015 and 2016 model years, including Al Fresco, a metallic silver with a greenish tone; Glacier, a chilly gray with an undertone of violet blue; and Elixir, a metallic combination of silver and magenta. Harrington predicts more cars, particularly luxury models, will offer earthy brown and orange tones over the next few years.

Color preferences also differ by location. Buyers in North America are more likely to favor red vehicles than those elsewhere, while Europeans prefer black and gray over silver. In Asia, drivers are more likely to choose tan or gold, but shun green. Blue cars, however, manage a consistent 7% in each region.

No More Cell Phone Use for New Wisconsin Drivers reports Wimbledon Driving Academy

$
0

(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 01, 2012 ) United Kingdom -- No more talking on the phone while behind the wheel for new drivers in Wisconsin. Effective November 1st, Wisconsinites with an instruction permit or probationary license will be prohibited from using a cellphone while driving, except in cases of reporting an emergency. The largest group affected by the new law will be teenagers.

Many states, including Oregon and Washington, have already adopted laws prohibiting any cellphone use while driving for all drivers. The rationale behind the ban comes from studies that have shown that driving while talking on the phone is a form of ‘distracted driving’ that delays reaction times in drivers equivalent to driving drunk. While the Wisconsin law does not prohibit other drivers from using their mobile phones while driving, the practice is still discouraged.

Drivers caught violating the new law after November first will be fined from $20-$40 for a first offense and $50-$100 for a second offense committed within one year.

The law hopes to cut down on driving fatalities in Wisconsin-teens, a cause of death that Wisconsin State Patrol Major Sandra Huxtable, who is also the state director of the Bureau of Transportation Safety, says is the #1 cause of death for America’s teens:

“In a national study, 43% of 16 and 17 year-olds said they have talked on a cell phone while driving and 40% of teens up to age 17 said they have been in a car when the driver used a cell phone in a way that put themselves or others in danger.”

The new law affects: drivers licensed in other countries, drivers with suspended or revoked instructional permits or probationary licenses, new state residents with fewer than three years of driving experience, new state residents under the age of 21, and new state residents who surrender a license that has been expired for more than six months.

(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 01, 2012 ) United Kingdom -- Insurance claims soar when hired cars are involved, according to a recent study by the Office of Fair Trading. Average insurance claims involving hired cars exceed those of normal claims by up to £500, the OFT claims.

These findings have been referred to the Competition Commission, who have been urged to look into the matter. The OFT does not believe that the considerable bump in claim cost has been caused by drivers, but is symptomatic of the “dysfunctional” makeup of the car insurance industry.

The report on the auto insurance market, a 9.2 billion euro industry, was completed in May of this year and, now after a public consultation, the OFT has elected to refer the matter to the Competition Commission. The Commission will have two years to compile a report of its own and weigh in on the matter separately.

Chief among the concerns raised by the OFT is that drivers who are found to be liable in accidents have little to no control over the cost of repairing or replacing the damaged vehicles involved.

The OFT report released this spring told of repairs to damaged vehicles being hired out for more money and more billable time than should have been required. The Office of Fair Trading found that repairs to hired cars were overbilled by £155, bringing the average cost to £560.

The report implicated insurers as well as hire firms and repair garages for artificially inflating the cost of repairs and padding their earnings with fees, costs and other premiums of £225 million per year.

The Association of British Insurers, ABI, says that they welcome the review and claim that the OFT has formally uncovered an issue that insurers have known for years - that claims made by at-fault drivers must contend with costs that are largely out of the hands of insurers.

ABI director of general insurance Nick Starling had this to say about the matter, “In particular, for too long insurers have faced inflated rates for credit hire cars and excessive hire periods, which have led to higher insurance premiums for customers.”

“Regulation of all players in the market to tackle excessive costs is needed, and we look forward to working with the Competition Commission to bring much needed reforms to the market that will, in turn, result in lower car insurance premiums for consumers.”

Fiber Network Is Key to Future of E-Commerce in Australia reports Exede internet

(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 01, 2012 ) San Francisco, CA- Australians are big users of social media but the country has one of the developed world’s lowest rates of fiber connection to the Internet.

A study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development also found Australians ranked low in e-commerce.

Australia’s Labor Party has vowed that within 10 years, high-speed fiber-optic cable will connect 93% of premises to the Internet. The rest would be linked by wireless and satellite.

But in the OECD study, which was released in Budapest, Australia was 25th for using fiber to bring broadband to homes or buildings.

About 1% of broadband connections in Australia are through fiber. In Japan, that figure is over 60%. But in Australia, more households can access broadband Internet (73%) than can households in OECD, about 66%.

Browsing the Web through mobile devices is popular among Australians, the study found. Non-computer devices account for more than 5% of Web traffic in Australia. The country ranks just after Japan, the United Kingdom, and United States.

Although the number of mobile phone subscriptions has surged around the world, doubling since 2005, Australians remain reluctant to enter online transactions. Only 5% of companies’ annual turnover in 2011 came from e-commerce.

“It suggests that there will need to be cultural change,” John O’Mahony, associate director at Deloitte Access Economics, told the Brisbane Times. “By some measures, Australians are taking up these new technologies quickly, like buying smartphones, but some of the uses of them are obviously behind.”

He said the digital infrastructure needed to be upgraded, adding that the fiber network put Australia “behind a fair few countries that wouldn’t normally be considered digital leaders.”

The OECD report said the network would determine the fate of online business.

“The future of the Internet economy depends on whether users, businesses and governments feel safe using the network and trust it for critical applications and services,” the report stated.

ZenWheels Micro Car - RC Car For Your iPhone


 

SpyNet Ultra Vision Night Vision Goggles


 


Review of ZenWheels Micro Car. A mini race car controlled with your iPhone. Hands-On review



SpyNet Ultra Vision Goggles. See in the dark with this Night Vision goggles by Jakks Pacific
(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 02, 2012 ) New York, NY -- In real life, there is nothing exciting about having to look for a parking spot in NYC and when you do find one, try to squeeze into the spot with some impressive parallel parking. On the other hand, if you’re driving the ZenWheels Micro Car, parallel parking becomes a fun game.

The ZenWheels Micro Car is a new remote controlled car. The tiny Micro car works via Bluetooth with an app on the iPhone. What makes the ZenWheels Micro Car very different from other RC mini cars is the proportional steering and control.

In the ZenWheels Micro Car review that Dad Does performed, the most impressive stunt was being able to parallel park the micro car with amazing precision. The user has absolute precision steering controls and is able to make tiny adjustments and have a unique driving experience.

Please watch the video review of the ZenWheels Micro Car

“At first glance the ZenWheels Micro Car looks like all the other mini RC race cars. It is slightly larger than the Hot Wheels Nitro Speeder but at first glance appears to be the same type of car. Once you turn on the ZenWheels and experience the amazing maneuvering, you realize the ZenWheels Micro Cars are in a class of their own. These cars are not about blazing fast top speeds, but more about precision controlled driving” states Dan Nessel of DadDoes.Com .

In addition to the precision driving experience, there are a number of extras built into the Micro Car to increase play value. You have lights, hazards, horns, directional lights, sirens and various blue lights on the bottom of the car. In addition, the ZenWheels Micro Car comes with timing gates so you can run races and record your lap times.

DadDoes.Com has been busy reviewing all the top toys for 2012 to help parents figure out what to buy for the upcoming holiday season. If you have kids who are more into spy missions than racing cars, the SpyNet Ultra Vision Night Goggles are an excellent choice.

The SpyNet Ultra Vision goggles allow kids to see in complete darkness. New for 2012 is the ability to not only see in the dark, but also record video in total darkness. To increase the play value, there are also a number of overlays and different modes such as ghost recon and thermo scan.

Nessel states, “Kids will love the SpyNet Ultra Vision Night Goggles from Jakks Pacific. The ability to record video, opens up a whole new way to play with this toy. I can see kids making movies with the night vision video they can capture with the Spy Net Ultra Vision.”
