Unclaimed Finance LLC , heir locators/finders who specialize in reuniting unclaimed property with their rightful owners. We have made a short interview with them: What is Unclaimed Property? Unclaimed property is defined as property that has gone through the following process: abandonment, and escheatment. A property is considered “abandoned” by the property owner whereby there has been no account activity or communication a period of time required by State law, oftentimes this period is 5 years. The process of escheatment applies to all financial institutions, brokerage firms, and recently retail institutions since the passing of law requiring abandoned gift checks and gift cards recorded on abandoned property reports. Prior to the property being transferred to the State’s Treasury department, the institution must make a good faith effort to locate the property owner. If they are unable to locate the owner, the property is escheated and/or transferred to the State in which ...

Jerome Cleary is publicist and PR Consultant in Los Angeles, California. We have made a short interview with him. How did you get interested into the PR Consulting and Publicist Field, Who or what inspired you? While many people go to college to get a degree in Public Relations, which are great as, I happened to be helping a friend out in your small home office PR firm part time. I learned how to be a publicist from the ground up and became a great writer and PR story pitcher. Making the goal of putting together a great news story and then trying to get as many media placements as possible inspired me.

BikeAPack - The Folding Bicycle

BikeaPack.com has invented a folding bicycle. We have asked them about this great invention: This is amazing, how does the folding of the bicycle work in order to fit in a full bag that is only 9 inches x 13 inches x 21 inches?  Well, it weighs only 18 pounds. It folds (or unfolds) in about a minute without tools. Actually, the unique invention is that the wheels fold. Really, the wheels fold and how is that?  The secret to that is in our patent on our website www.BikeAPack.com, but basically it has an internal driveline, so there is no chain or exposed grease. The tires are pre-inflated and snap into place as the wheels unfold. It then looks, rides, and feels like a normal bicycle. So say that again, about how quick it is for someone to fold or open it before riding it?  About a minute. And that's without tools?  Right Where can I buy or order this folding bicycle and how much does it cost? We are not taking deposits or orders yet. It's in pre-r...
