Garage Living introduces flooring that will revolutionize your garage

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

July 2, 2008

Great for do-it-yourselfers, this multi-purpose, water-resistant tile, is easy to install

July 2, 2008, TORONTO – For some, a garage is just a garage, but to an ever increasing number of home owners, there is a realization that a garage has the potential to become much, much, more; and a good place to start is with the garage floor.

Revolutionizing a garage can be as simple as installing tile flooring making it visually appealing while increasing its usefulness.

“Garages can be dull, cold, damp, and uninviting, but simply installing tile flooring introduces a whole new fresh look and feel that opens the door for increased functionality,” says Frank Spano, Vice President of Marketing, Garage Living, Canada’s leading garage specialists. “Our new multi-purpose, zipper-lock tile can be easily installed without adhesive; it’s really easy to install yourself too.”

The thermal and water resistant qualities of VersaTile makes a garage feel warm and dry, resulting in a room that is more appealing to be in. Because the tiles are seamless with an impervious surface that is hard wearing and resistant to many chemicals including salt, oil and grease, and easy to clean, the garage can be a messy dirty workshop one moment and a play area that is clean and dry the next.

With a range of different colours from taupe, red, grey and black, to design options which can include a classic grey floor or a checkerboard floor that creates a “racetrack” look, VersaTile can be customized to meet just about everyone’s needs. It can also be laid on a flat or sloped surface, and is so easy to install that a mallet and a utility knife is all that’s needed.

“Another great feature is the multi-functionality of these tiles. While they are great for the garage, they can be used for basements, storage rooms, workshops, patios, laundry rooms; it’s endless,” says Frank Spano. “And with a global emphasis on recycling, and waste diversion, Garage Living’s VersaTile is made from recycled PVC and comes with our 5 year limited warranty.”

The lack of money is never about money

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

July 2, 2008

Thoughts, not money are the true capital

July 2, 2008, TORONTO -- Obtaining financial wealth starts by understanding that the concept of rags to riches is not just a dream, but merely a change in what you believe about money.

Most believe that the road to financial independence is to buy a home, pay off the mortgage, and then retire. Common knowledge seems to dictate that by not having a mortgage to pay during retirement, living in one's home will be affordable and virtually worry free. But what happens when taxes increase to the point that they're larger than the average mortgage payment? Or what happens if the cost-of-living, as evidenced by the recent surge in oil and produce costs, rises faster than a person's pension?

It's obvious, but what seemed to work for our parents and grandparents is doubtful to work for this generation. A change in beliefs about money is in order.

For instance, a home is commonly referred to as an asset, but what if something's only considered an asset where the revenue exceeds its expenses?

"People tend to think of financial planning in terms of retirement, but a good planner can help you pay for a home, a vacation, or whatever is important to you," says Sandi Gale, one of Toronto's leading independent money strategists . "Money should be fun."

Someone once said, "If wealth is the product of one's capacity to think: then thoughts, not money are the true capital."

"I studied the psychology of money five times before I got it. I looked into my own limiting beliefs around money and I realized that I had allowed the traumas in my life to limit my abilities to make money," explains Sandi. "A willingness to look at new things such as nontraditional philosophies, while not disregarding traditional methods can open up unlimited possibilities."

Believing that money is simply energy, Sandi has helped her clients learn to invoke various alternative and non-traditional learning models to un-block the flow of energy, increase prosperity in their lives and create an individual wealth identity.

"I had this friend who would focus on her debts all the time, and as a result was always in debt," tells Gale. "I finally convinced her to focus on saving, and to give me a plastic bag full of loonies and toonies every month to put in an account for her. While not financially independent yet, she's retired and still young with a whole new belief system about obtaining financial wealth. It doesn't have to be painful."

Namex poised for senior exploration

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

July 2, 2008

With mining, the old adage, location, location, location has great significance

July 2, 2008, MONTREAL -- Where do you find a new mine? The answer is simple, next to an old one.

In reality, it's not that simple; however, experts know that locating a new mine in close proximity to a previously developed one is a good indicator. After all, a vein carrying mineral deposits doesn't just shut off because of a property line.

Namex Explorations Inc. recently purchased the Huffman property, located northwest of Sudbury. This new property is on trend and some 8 kilometres east of the Jerome Gold Mine. In 1941 to 1943 the Jerome Gold Mine produced 56,878 ounces of gold, and 15,104 ounces of silver. Of great significance and as evidence of the importance of location, recent excavator work on the Huffman property has exposed mineralized porphyritic felsic bedrock in four trenches along a strike length of 240 metres.

"There are exciting things about to happen," says Oliver Maki, Chief Geologist for Namex Explorations Inc., former Professor of Geology at Cambrian College, and director of the exploration program that discovered the three billion ton Los Pelambres copper deposit on the Chile-Argentina border. "The [Huffman property] results of grab samples have been tremendous: the gold value is up over 2 ounces per ton and although confined to a somewhat narrow vein, it's occurring within quartz felsic porphyry which is the host draw for most of the mines in that area. We're optimistic of being able to locate an enlargement of it further down."

In fact all of Namex's properties are located in former or established mining camps, are part of former mines are adjoining, or adjacent to former mines, or are on trend and in very close proximity to known ore bodies. They also can be serviced by the existing infrastructure of skilled mine labor pools, good roads, power, cities and are in areas known to be friendly to mining.

Their Post Creek property is not only strategically located adjacent to FNX Mining's Podolsky North and Podolsky 2000 projects, but encompasses some 1,200 metres of the same Whistle Offset which hosts the Podolsky ore bodies. In August of last year, the Podolsky 2000 Deposit encountered massive copper, nickel, platinum, palladium and gold mineralization.

"The Post Creek rock type is correct, the geology is correct and it's surrounded by proven producers - that's what we base our excitement on," says Oliver Maki.

Butte’s “richest hill on earth” may have a rival

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 2, 2008

OT Mining’s Ruby Property set to drill targets

June 2, 2008, MONTREAL -- The "Butte Mining District" that encompasses "The Richest Hill On Earth" and is second only to South Africa’s Witwatersrand, may have a rival - and it’s located only 14 miles north east of Butte.

It is believed that The O.T.’s Ruby Project’s North Anomaly may equal, or even surpass, the mineral wealth of the Butte Mining District.

Since 1880, Butte has produced almost 400 billion dollars worth of metals with estimates of a similar amount yet to be discovered. "The Richest Hill" has produced ore to depths of 5,500 feet. And drill results, to a depth of 8,500 feet, show continuance of the Butte mineralized structure. During the World Wars I and II, the Butte Mine alone produced 25 per cent of the United States copper demand.

In itself, the Ruby Property’s close proximity to "The Richest Hill" is telling. However, leading edge technology in the form of innovative geochemical techniques, airborne geophysical surveys and detailed mapping and sampling, has provided ample compelling evidence that the Ruby Property has the potential to contain base and precious metal ore that equal or exceeds that of the infamous Butte Mining District.

"The question is not if they’ll find precious metal, as our preliminary tests have pretty much determined that, rather it’s a matter of how much," says James Hess, President of The O.T. Mining Corporation. "The fact that major mining companies are contacting us is also very exciting."

Already, O.T.’s Montana technical team has refined the project data, selected drill targets from the 18 new drill site permits issued by The USFS (United States Forest Service) this past May and have begun to prepare the drill sites.

O.T.’s Project Manager has issued tenders for two drills to begin work as soon as weather permits.

"O.T.’s goal is to prove that the Ruby Property’s North Anomaly mineralized system has the potential to rival or surpass that of the Butte Mining District," says James Hess.

Preschoolers can learn to read and do math – in just minutes a day

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

dEcode for Kids has proven to be simple and effective in teaching kids how to read and do math

June 2, 2008, TORONTO -- dEcode for Kids is a unique program that teaches children between the ages of 3 and 6, earlier is even better, successful literacy and numeracy skills ­ in just minutes a day.

What parent doesn’t want their child to learn early and give them a head start at reading and doing math before they enter kindergarten? Generally speaking, when it comes to teaching their children how to read, parents don’t lack desire but more often it’s the lack of the tools and the time to do it. dEcode for Kids solves both these problems.

"In dEcode for Kids, both the reading and math programs are designed for maximum efficiency which is so important for children at this age whose primary job is to play!" says Leslie Grant (M.Ed.), Director of The Lawrence Park School in North Toronto, which uses the dEcode for Kids programs. "Ten minutes a day is more than enough, and the children really enjoy both the books and the CD programs."

Just about every level of society, inclusive of governments, municipalities, school boards, teachers and parents are recognizing the importance of starting the process of reading and doing math in the preschool years of a child’s life.

Teaching a child to read is considered the key to building self-confidence and instilling the necessary skills to succeed in school and life, according to the Ontario Ministry of Education.

dEcode for Kids is an effective program for teaching pre-kindergarten children how to read, because dEcode for Kids was founded on the same principles as ABC dEcode and 123 dEcode. Both ABC and 123 dEcode were developed through over thirty years of clinical practice with kids and adults struggling with dyslexia, Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD), Learning Disabilities (LDs), and low literacy. These programs have proven to be successful 100 per cent of the time where the student follows the recommended course. The difference is that the full dEcode system, provides more in-depth drilling practice to overcome specific sorts of problems which for most children are not necessary.

With over thirty years of clinical practice, working with hundreds of young children between the ages of three and six, Dr. Debby Chesnie Cooper recognized a need for the very young to have an enticing way to learn about sounds and numbers. The dEcode for Kids curriculum delivers a solid learning foundation in reading for pre-school children and gives them an accelerated head-start in learning to read.

"dEcode for Kids is different than any other program as it is the only reading program that starts at the very beginning ­ with the auditory coding of single sounds," says Dr. Debby Chesnie Cooper, Developmental and Educational Psychologist and Director of The Chesnie Cooper Educational Centre*, leaders in child and educational psychology. "Other reading programs skip too quickly over the early stages of phonetic decoding­ only dEcode for Kids takes all the steps required to truly learn to decode. The dEcode for Kids program, with its careful early attention to auditory coding can even overcome certain mild LDs which may then never manifest in the future for the young learner."

What most corporations don’t know about print management solutions

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 2, 2008

The cost per page solution to hidden print management costs

June 2, 2008, OAKVILLE -- Operating at high efficiency in order to increase the bottom line is always a priority for businesses and not-for-profit organizations.

According to a study by InfoTrends, corporations spend an average of six percent of their gross revenue on their overall document management. Most companies, however, think they only spend around three percent of gross revenues, but when hardware, supplies and people costs are considered, the average is around six percent and growing. To reduce these costs, organizations need to consider alternative print solution options.

There are many opportunities for companies to reduce print costs. For example, organizations are quick to account for the hard and soft costs of purchasing a multifunction printer (MFP), supplies, toner, etc., but overlook the hidden cost of their daily operation.

Research has shown that an estimated 50 per cent of the overall printer cost can be tied to support, and of that, 20 per cent can be directly attributed to service calls to a company’s IT helpdesk, according to Principal Analyst Louella Fernades of Quocirca.

Most companies’ print management operations are askew with many departments operating independently with little or no knowledge of other departments’ printing supply needs. The savings that can come as a result of bulk buying are being overlooked.

This is the reason that LaserNetworks® launched its COST PER PAGE® program, in 1996, the first such program in the print solutions industry at that time. It includes on-site support of all printing and imaging devices and networks, management of all printer and imaging fleet assets, and provisioning of all printing supplies, everything except paper and power, for a pre-determined, fixed cost per page fee.

"Our experience working with over 500 North American organizations, including such companies as PepsiCo, and Boeing, has shown that print management costs can be reduced as much as 40 percent," says Chris Stoate, President of LaserNetworks®, Canada’s leading print solutions company.

LaserNetworks® currently supports over 50,000 printing and imaging devices, and delivers on-site service throughout Canada and the United States.

"There are numerous ways to reduce a company’s print operation costs, bulk buying and eliminating calls to a company’s IT helpdesk are only two of the many solutions available," says Chris Stoate. "Reducing equipment down-time, leveraging LaserNetworks®relationship with suppliers, using latest technology in the marketplace without incurring capital costs and taking advantage of the environmentally friendly options available are just a few ways that companies can improve their print management operations."

Don’t build an addition to increase space - just organize the garage

MEDIA RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 2, 2008

Increase the home's useable space

June 2, 2008, VAUGHAN -- For most people, it seems, a home never has enough space. This is one of the reasons why the housing market is so busy - the family grows, stuff accumulates and then there’s a need for a larger home. But moving can be so expensive and time consuming. Now Garage Living offers another alternative.

Increase the useable square footage of a home without the extra expense of moving costs, real estate and closing fees, and the monthly financial demand of a larger mortgage. Moving can be put off for several years by simply increasing the home’s functionality and useable square footage, creating more space and strengthening the family’s financial position.

How is this possible? Simple, Garage Living helps homeowners increase the functionality of the home’s existing space. In fact, so much space can be freed-up, it’s like adding a 10 by 20 foot room onto a home. Savvy homeowners are now looking to organize their garage to increase their homes useable space. It’s the hottest new home improvement trend that not only gives homeowners more functional and useable space; it even increases the resale value of the home.

Take any unused or seldom used items off the floor anywhere in the home and store them neatly and conveniently in the garage. The unused items can be stored on overhead shelves, while the more frequently used things, such as sports equipment and toys, are kept within reach on adjustable wall organizers called slatwall. To optimize the use of the garage, get everything off the floor and make use of all the space with overhead storage cabinets and storage systems.

"For most, a garage is nothing more than a place to store large seasonal tools, equipment, and a place to collect junk, but it can be so much more," says Frank Spano, Vice President of Marketing, Garage Living, Canada’s leading garage specialists. "By installing shelving, cabinetry and overhead storage, the average two car garage adds 200 square feet of storage space while still functioning as a place to park the family vehicles."

People are beginning to realize the multi-function capabilities of a garage. Not only can it serve as a place to store vehicles or junk, but with a few improvements a garage can be like a new addition to the home. A garage can be used as a play area for the kids, a workshop for the handyman, a workout area, the possibilities are endless.

Garage Living’s organization concept is the answer to the home storage problems of suburban families. Their state of the art showroom is located in Vaughan, Ontario. This modern 85,000 square foot facility includes 10,000 square feet of showroom, 15,000 square feet of manufacturing and a 65,000 square foot warehouse. The showroom is open Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and is located at 201 Chrislea Road, Vaughan. In-home consultations can be booked at 1-877-850-8557.
