2 Refunds, Inc. Announces Launch of Website That Rewards Customers for Filing Taxes Online by Deadline

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, March 21, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- 2 Refunds, Inc. has launched a website with a rare promise: File one tax return and get two refunds. Aptly named, 2 Refunds gives the startup a preemptive position in online done-for-you tax preparation - a niche that exists in the overlapping services of H&R Block and TurboTax yet has no focused presence from either industry leader.

Void of bells and whistles, the site clearly explains the process and reveals that the refunds do not come from the Internal Revenue Service. They come from preparation fees and they are not complete reimbursements, but 50 percent.

"Obviously, we cannot give back everything and stay in business," said company founder and CEO, Javier Silva. "But, with less than 30 days left of tax season and a limited budget, we're cutting into future profit margins to get people's attention."

The mobile-friendly site offers the usual benefits and features found elsewhere. However, there are two innovations that set it apart: fixed prices and done-for-you service.

Fixed price packages are based on details of each return. Personal is $74.99, Premium is $214.97, and Premium Plus is $309.95.

The pioneering feature is the online done-for-you service. A tax professional prepares the return from information provided securely online by the customer who completes an interview and uploads files from a computer or snaps pictures using a smartphone. Communication is managed and tracked using support tickets.

Signing up is free and required for a secure online experience via encrypted connection which includes the use of reputable third party vendors such as Dropbox and E-sign Live. Payments are handled with PayPal for those not wanting prep fees taken from their IRS income tax refund. IRS Resolution Service is included to handle any issues that may arise after filing.

Clicking "Get Paid to Share" opens up the referral program that does not require purchase and pays for every referral that results in a sale with no limits on referrals.

"Until now, there were basically two options for tax preparation: physically going to a location to have them done for you or doing them yourself online or with software. With that in mind, 2refunds.com is not a website that showcases software technology. But rather, it is designed to connect humans who want online service with human professionals who provide service online," said Silva, who designed the site himself. "It's not complicated. I just want everyone to win."

About 2 Refunds, Inc.:

2 Refunds, Inc. is founded by Javier Silva, CEO. He has 14 years of experience in full charge bookkeeping, payroll and income tax. Although he possesses expertise in preparing corporate, partnership and non-profit returns, the company is focused on making personal tax preparation service available to individuals across the United States via the internet.

MH Virtual Creating Online Games to Honor 225th Anniversary of the Bill of Rights

COVINGTON, Ky., March 16, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- A web developer and veteran of the U.S. Navy is creating a series of online games honoring the 225th anniversary of ratification of the Bill of Rights. Michael Hebert, Owner/Operator of MH Virtual, LLC, was born in the ninth state to ratify the document (Rhode Island) and calls the game collection Civics Match.

He expects the project will encourage Americans to think about the importance of the first ten Constitutional amendments.

"The games are mobile-friendly and have a memory/quiz combination format that's pretty unique," Hebert said. "Even though I swore an oath to defend the Constitution upon entering service with the Navy and completed the Navy's Legal Officer Course, my knowledge of the Constitution could be better and I suspect that's the case for many Americans."

He adds, "With a Supreme Court appointment imminent in a Presidential election year, the Civics Match concept seems timely."

The first game, released on the anniversary of James Madison's birthday (March 16th), is currently available at game1.civicsmatch.com. For the matching portion it makes use of images of quarters from the U.S. Mint's 50 State Quarters Program. The quarters represent the first ten states to ratify the Bill of Rights, which became law when Virginia was the eleventh to ratify it on December 15th, 1791.

Project information and links to official sources of information about the Bill of Rights can be found at http://civicsmatch.com/.

Only Natural Pet and BlogPaws Be the Change for Pets – IMAGINE5

BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 24, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- This holiday season will be much brighter for the 7.6 million pets that enter shelters across the United States every year. Only Natural Pet is partnering with BlogPaws Be the Change for Pets to donate 5 percent of all qualifying purchases to help pets in need through December 31, 2015.

The statistics are staggering: pet parents in the United States spend $50 billion dollars a year on pets, with $5 billion being spent on holiday gifts for their pets. If 5 percent of every holiday pet purchase was donated to help pets in need, a quarter of a million dollars could be raised. This is the dream behind the #IMAGINE5 campaign.

With every order placed through December 31, 2015 on the Only Natural Pet website using Coupon Code: IMAGINE5, not only will 5 percent of the purchase value be donated to pets in need through BlogPaws Be the Change for Pets, but all customers will receive 5 percent off their total order.

Since 2010, BlogPaws and their Be the Change For Pets channel have donated over $100,000 in goods and services to qualifying 501(c)3 organizations dedicated to helping pets in need.

"BlogPaws Be the Change for Pets is delighted to be working with Only Natural Pet during the most giving time of the year. It's sure to help hundreds, if not thousands, of pets in need this year and next year," said BlogPaws Co-Founder and President, Yvonne DiVita.

Founded in Boulder, Colorado, in 2004, Only Natural Pet has spent the past 10 years finding innovative, cutting-edge holistic health solutions for dogs and cats and has become a leader in the natural pet products industry.

"We are very excited to be working with BlogPaws Be the Change for Pets this holiday season, their organization has done so much to help pets in need, and we are pleased to be a part of that," said Marty Grosjean, Only Natural Pet Founder and President.

BlogPaws was one of the first companies to begin promoting pet health and welfare via social media, and the first to start a conference for pet bloggers. We invite you to join in the holiday giving by sharing the #IMAGINE5 message - on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or over a cup of eggnog at a holiday party.

Cute Kittens Lose Out When It Comes to Online Ad Sales

NEW YORK, N.Y., Nov. 10, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Photos of kittens are cute, but clothing and food are where it's at when it comes to online advertising. PopMarker, creators of the advertising industry's most advanced platform for programmatic and in-image advertising, found that fashion and food are the most likely to lead to views, which can in turn generate cash for publishers.

PopMarker reports that in its network of over 1,000 publishers, style and fashion photos were tagged with advertising 20,000 times. Images of food were tagged 16,000 times and photos of chocolate 14,000. Even veggies were tagged 9,000 times. As for kittens and other pets, they're nowhere to be found.

New York based PopMarker has developed a patent-pending image tagging advertising platform that allows publishers to monetize images by overlaying additional content and links on top of an existing image.

"Publishers can take images that they already own and create a new stream of revenue by using them to create programmatic advertising," says PopMarker CEO Sarper Kocabiyik. "For publishers it's found money since they can monetize an existing library of images that sits idle."

The opportunity to make use of images that they already owned not only creates new revenues for publishers, but also has been found to be more effective than what they're already using. In just 21 months of operation PopMarker has found that programmatic publishing yields three times more revenue as more traditional banner ads. In addition, fill rate for qualified and compliant publishers is close to 100% at a very competitive eCPM.

Click here to join PopMarker publisher network: http://www.popmarker.com/signup.

PopMarker enables publishers to generate an entirely new source of revenue by using photos they already own. The initial data confirm that publishers believe that there's likely to be gold in those archived photos of bread and chocolate - not kittens. Cute kittens may be the stars of social media, but cute only gets you so far.

About PopMarker:

Established in January 2014, PopMarker(TM) is the global leader in in-image advertising placement. It has patented and the most advanced interactive platform for in-image advertising. It is the only SaaS cloud based interactive in-image advertising platform, which is used by both publishers and advertising agencies. PopMarker's ad server platform is now serving both premium and programmatic advertising.

Online Service Provides Free Counseling for Europe’s Refugees

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 25, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- An Internet group therapy service has initiated a program to provide psychological support for the thousands of refugees from the Middle East and North Africa who are currently trekking across Europe seeking new homes. In cooperation with the Adelina Foundation and Friends Beyond Borders, Growthnet, a U.S. company that offers various kinds of group counseling via web conferencing, is offering no-cost online sessions to any refugee who applies, according to its CEO, John Toomey.

"These people are entering Europe with all kinds of needs," Toomey says. "The governments in Europe are overcome with just handling practical things like food and shelter, so psychological and emotional traumas associated with the journey often go untreated. Some of these people have crossed the Mediterranean in leaky boats, been beaten by traffickers, and lost loved ones along the way. As long as we are able, we will help them adjust."

Key to the program's success is translation software newly developed by http://translateyourworld.com/.

The refugees typically speak languages like Arabic, Kurdish, Berber, and Hausa, and cannot understand therapists who speak only European languages. The new software allows the counselor to speak German, English, French, Russian, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Greek, or Russian, but the client can read the therapist's words in real time on their Smart phone or computer screen in Arabic, Turkish, Azeri, Swahili, or several other languages.

"Most people from the Middle East come from countries where psychotherapy is not common," says Soani Gunawan, language director for the project. "So being able to communicate with them in their own tongue can be critical not only to make them comfortable, but to allow them to see why counseling can be immensely beneficial to them during the kinds of ordeals they are facing."

An additional benefit to using the immediate translation software is that clients become more at ease with the native language of the country they are entering. A typical interaction, for example, is a German speaking therapist counseling an Arabic-speaking client. Since Germany is interested in assimilating refugees who qualify to remain as permanent residents, such an interaction is useful in helping the migrant learn a new tongue, since they are hearing the host language (German) at the same time as they read the target language (Arabic).

Plans are in the works to extend the program to other refugee crises, such as those facing the Rohingya in Southeast Asia, and Hutu and Tutsi peoples in Rwanda and Congo.

Iowa-Based Clothing Company Bassackwards Tees Expands its Lineup

DES MOINES, Iowa, Aug. 17, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Bassackwards Tees(TM), a Des Moines based clothing company, has announced that due to increasing customer demand, they have just released an additional four state T-shirts to their lineup, which include Illinois, West Virginia, Arkansas and Georgia. The company already offers their unique, increasingly popular and "crazy soft" shirts for eight U.S. states bringing the total now to twelve states overall.

According to their website - www.bassackwardstees.com - customers can send email requests for new states to be added to their list.

What started out as somewhat of a local following in Iowa has now grown to include surrounding states, including what have quickly become their best sellers; the states of Florida, Texas, New York, and California.

Owner, Bret Baldwin states that, "We like the fact that our shirts are putting a smile on people's face and making them happy, but there's a bigger purpose to our little business than just selling cool T-shirts. Since the 2012 diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy for our two little nephews, our family has endured the roller-coaster of emotions, the financial burden of medical needs and treatment, and the stark reality of what the future holds for our two little guys and thousands of other little boys around the world."

He adds, "Because of our first-hand and personal experience with this terrible disease in our own family we have committed to donating a minimum of 10 percent of all profits to help find a cure for DMD."

The company intends to continue adding additional states according to demand until all 50 U.S. states are available and also has plans to offer limited addition shirts that will follow the same "bassackwards" theme.

Internet of Things (IoT) Presents Threat to Aviation Safety, According to Cybersecurity Expert

ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 14, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The emerging Internet of Things (IoT) will expose the global aviation industry to vulnerabilities at a level never before seen and will have a transformative impact on the industry, according to George M. Schu, a cybersecurity strategist with Stangarone & Associates, a Washington D.C.-based consultancy.

According to Schu, "While the IoT promises to introduce enormous efficiencies and enhancements to aviation just as it is to other market segments, malware, or malicious software, is used by hackers with intent to disrupt operations, steal proprietary information, or compromise privacy."

"The aviation industry is five times more likely to be exposed to malware. Theft of customer data, intellectual property, and airfreight data are likely top motivations for targeting users in the aviation industry," he said.

The IoT enables automated communications between machines. The term IoT can include the type of Radio Frequency Identification tags that businesses place on products in stores to monitor inventory; the Smart Grid, which modernizes the electrical grid by harnessing digital technologies; and Internet-connected jet engines and drills on oil rigs.

"Indeed, there are great benefits to be realized for aviation with IoT -- more efficient aircraft routing, enhanced traveller experience, leveraging the sharing economy and an increased number of aircraft in a more connected ecosystem of aviation," he said, "but aviation leaders need to be cautious about how it is implemented."

A report released this January by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) addresses the security and privacy issues related to the IoT. Though this report is primarily focused on the impact of the IoT on the security and privacy in the consumer market, it raises issues that pertain to other markets such as transportation and aviation.

"We are at the beginning of the IoT era. The FTC reports that six years ago, for the first time, the number of things connected to the Internet surpassed the number of people. Estimates are that there will be 25 billion connected devices this year, and by 2020 there will be 50 billion. Related to the IoT phenomenon is the growth of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) connections," he said.

Three and one-half billion sensors are already in the marketplace, and the expectation is that number will increase to trillions within the next decade. Schu said the confluence of IoT and M2M connections is staggering to contemplate. Both will drive new innovation and economies across market verticals.

In the current Annual Security Report issued by CISCO, aviation is cited in the top five market verticals most vulnerable to malware exposure.

Schu believes that aviation leaders need to ensure that standards for IoT implementation and security are adopted and strictly used, not just for the aviation industry itself, but for its partners and suppliers as well. "Your suppliers can become your weakest link," he said.

About George M. Schu:

George Schu is a cybersecurity strategist with Stangarone & Associates, an aerospace and aviation consultancy based in Washington D.C. Schu served as a Booz Allen Hamilton Partner and Senior Vice President for seven years. He provided data integrity solutions for a large multinational financial services company and delivered regular in-person reports to the Board of Directors. He led an initiative to help the electrical utilities industry understand cyber vulnerabilities to the electric grid. He also led multiple businesses supporting Departments of Homeland Security, Justice and other U.S. civilian agencies' cybersecurity missions.

Before joining Booz Allen, Schu was at VeriSign where he was Vice President, Public Sector, responsible for building a new sales group from the ground up. He led sales, consulting services and business development teams that accounted for substantial growth of VeriSign's information security business. He was also responsible for M&A efforts at VeriSign aimed at growing the government market business. He conducted search and due diligence of technology companies to take VeriSign business to the next level. Prior to VeriSign, Schu worked for Oracle Corporation where he led a team focused on growing Oracle Information Security solutions in various enterprises. He had a track record of successfully creating demand for Oracle products through innovative marketing, solution selling and thought leadership.

Seattle Roofer Launches New Website, Enhanced Services

SEATTLE, Wash., March 31, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Eco Roof Service, a locally owned business that features environmentally friendly materials and practices, launched a new, expanded website this week at www.ecoroofservice.com.

"Spring is the perfect time to think about repairing or replacing your roof," said Eco Roof Service manager Aaron Zarling, "and our new website makes it easy for people to see what we offer and to get quick estimates, via phone, e-mail, or mobile devices. In addition," Zarling said, "we have a new online application form for prospective employees, designed to help us recruit qualified workers to keep up with our expanding demand."

Eco Roof Service is a preferred contractor for Owens Corning, and also partners with Certain-Teed, both longtime industry leaders in roofing materials.

"This gives our customers access to the most advanced and long-lived new shingle materials," Zarling said. "One of our latest advances is an app that allows customers to picture exactly what a type and color of shingle will look like on their particular roof."

A Green Company:

Eco Roof Services is proud to be a green company, which uses environmentally friendly products and recycles old roof materials. "When you get a new roof," Zarling said, "we recycle the old roof shingles into highway asphalt. This is a program run by Owens Corning, which repurposes 900,000 tons per year of shingles, enough to create an estimated 11,250 miles of a 2-lane highway. So, you may be literally driving on your old roof!"

A special feature on the website is an online chat service, and if customers chat by phone or online on Tuesdays, Eco Roof Services offers $500 off their new roof installation.

What do customers say about Eco Roof Services? The website features testimonials and a Super Service Award from Angie's List for 2014.

Newly launched Jovare brings 100-percent hand crafted and unique jewelry to the U.S.

FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif., Nov. 10, 2014 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Introducing Jovare, a collection of handcrafted, affordable jewelry from Africa that caters to the woman who wants a distinctive look. Suitable for both casual and formal wear, the jewelry will be sold online exclusively at www.jovare.com. It will not be available in retail stores.

Every piece of Jovare jewelry is made by hand, so no two pieces are exactly alike. Jovare products are crafted from solid brass and copper, and are never plated. Combining the two metals creates striking, one-of-a-kind jewelry.

Most pieces are matched with gemstones native to the African continent, but the artists do incorporate quality synthetic stones to meet the demand for more colorful gems. The collection includes earrings, rings, bracelets and necklaces, with prices ranging from the mid-$30s to the mid-$70s.

Jovare was founded with the larger purpose of building a thriving market for South African artisans. The intent is to spawn opportunities to train more artists and provide them with the means to support their families financially.

Jovare works only with fair-trade suppliers that employ the artists at a higher-than-average wage. The artists also receive a percentage of sales. In addition, Jovare pays for inventory in advance, helping vendors struggling to finance their businesses.

Jovare customers can feel good knowing they are helping the artists even as they enjoy a unique piece of wearable art. Jovare was found on the principal of providing unique quality fashion jewelry pieces at an affordable price to customers in the U.S. Each piece is unique, so when you wear it, you can be confident no one else will have anything like it.

No dyes are used. Extreme heat creates the jewelry's interesting patterns and effects. Wires and bangles are bendable, so they adjust to every fit. And because each stone is contained in its own "case," no amount of bending will make the stone fall out.

The jewelry will last a lifetime, allowing customers to express their uniqueness through designs that are timeless.

About Jovare:

Jovare(TM) imports and sells unique but affordable jewelry from Africa online at http://jovare.com/ . Handmade by skilled craftsmen, the jewelry is designed for women who refuse to compromise on the finer details of their appearance.

Students use Social Media to help Victims of Earthquake in Philippines

CEBU CITY, Philippines, Oct. 17, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- In efforts spearheaded by the World Mind Network, Friends Beyond Borders, and Batangas Varsitarian, young people from around the world used Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Skype, Friendster, and SMS tracking sites to help rescuers locate and aid victims of the recent earthquake in the central Philippines. The 7.2 magnitude quake struck the region of Bohol Island and Cebu just after 8 a.m. local time on October 15, 2013.

So far 161 have been confirmed dead, with hundreds injured, 19,000 homes severely damaged, and major losses to roads and infrastructure. According to Sarah Mendel and John Toomey of the World Mind Network, students from Stanford, Harvard, Emory, Utah, the University of Batangas, Santo Tomas, University of the Philippines, and several others participated.

"It's becoming more and more obvious that the power people possess in the palm of their hand, namely their Smart phone or tablet, has enormous power to help people instantly," said Toomey. "Disasters like this are the most self-evident example, but the same principle applies to every kind of humanitarian, public health, and educational assistance."

Every month the Adelina Award is presented by BatangasVarsitarian.net to someone who has performed heroically on behalf of Batangas or the Philippines in the fields of Humanitarian aid, Education, Public Health, Disaster Relief, or Economic Improvement.

This week five Adelina Awards are being announced, all for people and organizations who have rendered service far beyond the call of duty in helping the victims of the Bohol earthquake:

Robert Michael Poole: Mr. Poole traveled all over Bohol on the day of the quake, taking photos which documented the destruction. Many were useful in helping rescuers locate and save victims. You can see his photos here:

Mae of Natura Vista resort in Bohol, who is offering free lodging packages to those who donate to earthquake relief:

Bangon Bohol, a group of Boholanos from throughout the Philippines who have devoted thousands of hours to helping victims:

Narcisa Barbanida has been awarded the honor posthumously. She died saving her daughter. See:

Philippine Airlines (PAL), which has activated its Humanitarian Cargo Grant program. PAL will accept donations to be transported for free to Tagbiliran City in Bohol and Cebu. Certified volunteer doctors and medical specialists who will be participating in the ongoing relief efforts may also receive free air transportation via PAL.

Help is still needed, and resources and information on how to assist are listed on the group's site at http://philippineearthquakerelief.org/ as well as at batangasvarsitarian.net. For more information, or to make suggestions contact theworldmindnetwork@gmail.com.
