While Pearl S. Buck was known to the world as one of the 20th century’s most celebrated writers, many were unaware of her challenging past. Now, for the first time ever, Buck’s story is being told through a historical fiction book based on her life.

Baltimore, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/22/2012 -- Almost forty years after her death, the celebrated yet challenging life of Pearl S. Buck is exposed in a new historical fiction book.

‘PEARL ???’, by R. Lee Salkind Meliment, tells the story of the unconventional upbringing and eventual success through the eyes of Buck herself. From her raising by missionary parents in pre-revolutionary China until their forced departure in 1927, to her own struggles raising a daughter inflicted with Phenylketonuria and her successful writing career – Meliment ensures that Buck’s story isn’t buried with the passage of time.

“Having won the Pulitzer Prize and also as the recipient of a Nobel for literature, many remember Buck as a visionary and writer who stood up and provided a voice for those who thought they didn’t have one,” says Meliment.

He continues, “However, her early life is a compelling story in itself. Before she penned her first works she endured a troubled upbringing in a country that eventually forced her family out. Following the care of a sick Daughter and Mother, she grew into an educated woman who would go onto become a vehicle for change in the United States – all while being as good as forgotten in the country of her birth.”

At its heart, Pearl is a story of personal struggle and the overcoming of adversity.

“She was a woman of clear-eyed vision who sought challenge at every turn. She found success in the midst of personal heartbreak and throughout– from the young girl without a care in pre-revolutionary China, to an elderly woman railing against the social blacklist of international adoption,” Meliment adds.

Since its release, the book has garnered a consistent string of five-star reviews.

“Beautifully written account of a most intriguing life! I didn&apost want to put the book down!” says Beverly Wolfe, who reviewed the book on Amazon.

Another reader, A. Mark says, “Pearl Buck is one of the most interesting and intriguing people I have read about. Her life story reads like an adventure.”

In all, Pearl is a beautifully crafted story that all of the family will enjoy. Copies can be purchased online directly at Amazon Books and Barnes and Noble’s Nook: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004WLOBR6

About Mitchell Group
Founded in England in 1954, Mitchell Group soon became known as a leader in the pharmaceutical industry, specializing in skincare products that targeted skin discoloration for women and men in Africa. Over time, we noticed many consumers incorrectly using various prescription-drug lightening/brightening creams, gels, oils and other preparations in ways that could possibly cause more dark pigmentation, resulting in irritation and inflammation. Armed with this knowledge, we branched into the cosmeceutical side of the business, and began to carefully study and develop safe, efficient lightening/brightening products to achieve optimum, visible results.

Through years of ongoing research and development, our laboratory facilities in the United States, Switzerland and France continue to discover new cutting-edge formulas that promote healthy skin. We rigorously put these formulas to the test in clinical and laboratory trials to insure our products’ effectiveness and safety. Our entire product line has been clinically tested and follows FDA guidelines. One can enjoy the benefits of beautiful skin with the continued use of our many exciting topical cosmetic and pharmaceutical hybrids -- specifically created to produce youthful, flawless skin.

Mitchell Group is headquartered in Miami and has offices in the United Kingdom. The Company distributes Fair & White, So White! and the Yelen brands, all produced in France, while other brightening products are produced in the United States, Europe and Lebanon. The selling network extends to North America, South America, the Caribbean, the United Kingdom, Africa and Asia.

In October of 2009, the company launched a new skincare brand called OMIC SKINCARE specializing in skincare issues that address specific skincare concerns such as acne, dull skin, enlarged pores, skin discolorations, dark circles and sun protection.

“Men and Women of all races and skin types are dealing with skin discoloration in many different forms; brown spots, freckles, age spots, acne scars, and hormonal discoloration as well as uneven skin tone. This is related to visible changes in the behavior and appearance of the skin due to overexposure to the sun, known as “photo-aging”. The Mitchell Group lightening/brightening skincare, addresses these issues by improving clarity and radiance to the skin, resulting in a healthier, youthful appearance.”

To Dance in Liradon: Haunting New Fantasy Novel Shares Magic, Romance and True Love.

Set in a Celtic fantasy village, Adrienne Clarke’s latest novel proves that appearance can be deceitful and that love can be found in the most unexpected of places.

Aurora, ON -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/22/2012 -- For fans of fantasy, author Adrienne Clarke’s latest book offers a haunting literary experience. However, at the same time, her compelling work of fiction also imparts a life-changing exploration of love that will affect all readers for the better.

‘To Dance in Liradon’ has proven to be a gripping page-turner for all who dive inside.

Synopsis:

“Seventeen-year-old Brigid O&aposFlynn is an outcast. A chance encounter with the Faerie Queen left her tainted in the eyes of the villagers, who blame the Faerie for the village’s missing women and children. Desperate to win the village’s acceptance, Brigid agrees to marry her childhood friend: Serious, hardworking, Connell Mackenna. But when Connell disappears before their wedding, Brigid&aposs hopes are shattered. Blamed for her fiancé’s death, Brigid fears she will suffer the same fate as the other village outcasts, the mysterious Willow Women. Lured into Faerie by their inhuman lovers, and cast out weak and broken, the Willow Women spend their lives searching for the way back into Faerie. When Connell suddenly reappears, Brigid is overjoyed, but everything is not as it seems. Consumed by his desire for beauty and celebration, Connell abandons his responsibilities, and Brigid soon finds herself drawn into a passionate, dangerous world of two.

When Brigid discovers the truth behind Connell&aposs transformation she’s forced to choose between two men and two worlds. Brigid’s struggle leads her into glittering, ruthless Faerie, where she must rescue her true love from a terrible sacrifice or lose him forever.”

As the author explains, her book boasts a powerful story and an invaluable exploration of different kinds of love.

“To Dance in Liradon is a haunting new fantasy novel filled with magic and romance, but it is also a richly moral tale,” says Clarke.

She continues, “It’s a story about growing up, about the deceitful nature of appearances, and, most importantly, about what it is to be human and to love.”

Since its release, the book has garnered a consistent string of rave reviews.

“I picked up "To Dance in Liradon", and I was caught up in it from the first page. I was propped up in bed, reading well into the night becuase I just could not stop reading!” says Roger Prasad, who reviewed the book on Amazon.

Another reader, Mallory Anne-Marie Haws, was equally as impressed. She said that, “I loved reading this book for its lyrical writing and poetic imagery, its easy suspension of disbelief, and the multitude of instances of tension in which the reader feels balanced on a tightrope (will the character fall this way? Or that way?)”.

Fetherston Publishing today announces a limited edition “treasure box” that will rev the engine of any die-hard classic automobile fan.

Sebastapol, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/22/2012 -- When it comes to history of automobiles, nobody has captured the history, spirit and beauty of Woodys better than Fetherston Publishing. In fact, their celebrated 400-page book has already achieved a string of five-star reviews from some of the automobile world’s most respected critics.

Wanting to offer something even more special to the woody fan, that thought they had everything, the company is today announcing a limited run of their exclusive Treasure Box of Classic Woodys swag.

At the heart of the package is a 400-page book, built around 19 chapters, which captures not only the history of OEM station wagons, sedans, and convertibles, but also numerous one-offs, special builds, hot rods and even a chapter on the fake (aka wallpaper) Woodys of the fifties, sixties and seventies.

Opening out to 24x12 inches, readers can enjoy learning about the history of woody wagons built by Buick, Chevrolet, Chrysler Town and Country, Chrysler, Dodge and DeSoto, Ford, Mercury, Packard, Plymouth, Studebaker, International, Hot Rod Woodys and Surf Decals. Minor American makes, including American Bantam, Keller, Willys, Hudson, Nash and even Reo are also covered. There’s a chapter on types of trees used to build Woodys, and also on the decals of the world of surfing.

Fetherston’s Treasure Box of Classic Woodys is delivered in a custom maple and mahogany box, which resembles a woody tailgate. The presentation includes the book, a Dime Store toy woody wagon, a wood sample set, vintage and contemporary surf decals, classic woody postcards, and two genuine postage stamps for inclusion in the frontispiece.

“I call this ‘The Last Great Woody Book’! Printed books are disappearing, and to produce such a book, complete with woody history and nearly 800 images, is unheard of with this type of publication,” says David Fetherston.

This intriguing and highly valued boxed set offers something extra special for the Woody fan this Christmas. It is priced at $459 (including free domestic shipping). The print run was only 500, so with this short supply in mind, Fetherston urges woody enthusiasts to act fast to avoid disappointment.

My Clock Station Pro - Best Holiday Clock App for iPad by Game Scorpion Inc.

Mississauga, Canada -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/22/2012 -- When Abhinav Gupta went to sleep with his iPad one night, his head started spinning. He had just obtained an expensive clock with a big screen that was there to help him fall asleep and keep the time. The only issue was it only had a single sound to fall asleep to and didn&apost offer much more than just being a basic bedside solution. This got the app developer thinking about making his own app that would help him and countless millions in falling asleep for a fraction of the cost!

"I use to sit there saying to myself, &aposwhy hasn&apost anyone come up with a better solution?&apos...That&aposs when it hit me!", thought Gupta as he described how he came up with the idea, "People want a complete bedside solution at a price that is affordable. Many sounds to fall asleep to, built in memos to take those notes during the night, a calculator to do some quick math and big bold numbers so that the clock can be seen easily in the dark."

Just recently Apple launched its new iPad Mini and has shown no signs of slowing down yet! With the big Christmas rush many people will be heading to the malls to purchase the latest iPad as well as many new apps for their new devices. Apple has already sold 100 million iPad units to date and with the Christmas season right around the corner that number will just keep growing.

"My Clock Station Pro is a complete bedside solution for the iPad and has a lot to offer including even a nap timer for busy students!", explains Gupta as he goes over some of the interesting features of the app, "The idea was that a person would plug in their iPad at night to charge their device, and My Clock Station Pro would turn their iPad into a full Bedside clock solution!"

When considering the price of various other bedside solutions and sleep therapy devices, which can go well above $50, Gupta&aposs solution is one that is not only practical but also offers a smorgasbord of various tools and utilities built in such as a dimmer, flashlight and even a calculator. One user who reviewed the app on iTunes even went as far as to state that the app is the, "Swiss army knife of alarm clocks!"

Device Requirements:
- iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
- Requires iOS 3.2 or later
- 26.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
My Clock Station Pro 2.1.2 is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Utilities category.

Georgia to Pass on Creating Health Insurance Exchange Reports NBer

State joins several others in rejecting Obamacare participation

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/23/2012 -- Georgia Governor Nathan Deal, following the lead of several other Republican governors, has decided that Georgia will not set up it own health insurance exchange, leaving the decision up to the federal government.

In making the decision, Deal joined several other Republican governors in turning down the President Barack Obama administration’s model for state-run health insurance exchanges, known as Obamacare that is supposed to set in January 2014. Twenty states have rejected the plan

These state-run health insurance markets are designed to aid small business owners and individuals in locating affordable health insurance under federal regulations.

In a letter sent to President Obama, Deal wrote, “I remain concerned with the one-size-fits-all approach and high financial burden imposed on states by this federal mandate.”

There are a number of unknowns that are behind the mass rejection of Obamacare at the state level, such as the unknown federal regulations and unknown costs involved with the plan. Texas Governor Rick Perry, in his letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius rejecting the plan stated: “As long as the federal government has the ability to force unknown mandates and costs upon our citizens while retaining the sole power in approving what an exchange looks like, the notion of a state exchange is merely an illusion,” Perry wrote.

Not all states agree. In Mississippi, Insurance commissioner Mike Chaney went ahead with plans to establish exchange. He went on record that he does like the plan, stating, “I think it needs to be repealed. But it is the law. If you default to the federal government, you forever give the keys to the state’s health insurance market to the federal government.”

Other governors were more pointed in their rebuff of the plan. Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, both Republicans, stated in a joint letter to Obama: “States are struggling with many unanswered questions and are not able to make comprehensive far-reaching decisions prudently.”

At present, there had been a Nov. 16 deadline for deciding on the state-run exchanges. Jindal and McDonnell requested an extension of that deadline, which was agreed to by the Obama administration, which extended it until Dec. 14. However, the Jan. 1, 2014 date to launch the health care plan’s expanded coverage remains intact.

In his letter, Deal wrote that he felt that exchange would be “state-based in name only.”

He emphasized his point in stating, “I would support a free market-based approach that could serve as a useful tool for Georgia’s small businesses, but federal guidelines forbid that. Instead, restrictions on what the exchanges can and can’t offer render meaningless the suggestion that Georgia could tailor an exchange that best fits the unique needs of its population.”

Singapore Will Make It Tougher for Foreigners to Get Top-Tier Work Pass Reports RolePoint

Manpower Ministry will require much higher earnings for Personalised Employment Pass

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/23/2012 -- The Singapore-based Asia One News reports that nation’s Manpower Ministry is about to put in place new rules certain to make it substantially more difficult for top-level foreign professionals to obtain the most flexible form of work permit.

Starting December 1, the Singapore agency will raise the minimum monthly earnings threshold required for foreigners to apply for the Personalised Employment Pass. Instead of the previous thresholds of $3,000 to $8,000, depending on type of permit, new regulations will set the minimum monthly earnings threshold for the PEP at $12,000.

The increases in minimum earnings follow previous boost this January and in July of 2011, as well as other reworkings of the rules on foreign-worker eligibility. The Manpower Ministry says the latest changes, like those previously adopted, are aimed at improving the quality of Employment Pass holders. A statement on the Ministry’s website claimed the changes in the PEP are designed to see that it “remains a premium pass for top-tier foreign talent working in Singapore.

The Employment Pass is required for foreign professionals in managerial, executive or specialized jobs. The most-desired work pass, the Personalised Employment Pass, was created in 2007 in a bid to attract foreigners with exceptional work skills to Singapore.

It is much more flexible than other versions of an Employment Pass. With the PEP, workers are not tied to any particular employer. In addition, holders of the PEP can remain in Singapore even if unemployed for as much as six months. Under the standard Employment Pass, holders must leave the country if they are out of work for as little as 30 days.

In another change taking effect December 1, the PEP, formerly issued for a non-renewable period of five years, will be trimmed to three years. The Ministry says that, as of December 2011, Singapore had about 12,000 PEP holders, less than 7% of the total number of holders of all classes of Employment Passes. The Ministry explained the shorter duration for PEP holders as stemming from the view that top-level foreign workers should be able to find work and obtain a different category of Employment Pass.

Recruiting executive Andrea Ross, who serves as managing director for Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam for the consultant firm Robert Walters, says the changes may wind up driving top-level foreign workers out of Singapore and into jobs in neighboring nations. She also calls the changes in salary test rules “out of synch with the market."

David Ang, the Singapore Human Resources Institute’s executive director, observed that in Singapore’s slowing economy, the more restrictive PEP standards could become a moot issue for many employers there, since they are not likely to be able to afford costly foreign employees.

Goldman Sachs Director Expresses Apologies over Scandal Reports Sunrise Reputation

Rajat Gupta spoke in court with apology and regret

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/23/2012 -- The former director of Goldman Sachs, Indian-born Rajat Gupta, was sentenced to two years in prison today for insider trading.

Gupta spoke to the court for six minutes before his sentencing was handed down by U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff, expressing his genuine apologies for all of the people he negatively affected with his poor decision making. Gupta was indicted on security fraud and conspiracy, and with his sentence, was also slapped with a $5 million fine.

Gupta’s speech to the court was heartfelt and apologetic in tone: “The last 18 months have been the most challenging period of my life since I lost my parents as a teenager. I have lost my reputation that I have built over a lifetime.”

He continued, “the overwhelming feelings in my heart are of acceptance of what has happened, of gratitude to my family and friends, and of seeking forgiveness from them all. It is with these feelings that I hope to move forward and dedicate myself to the service of others.”

“Much of the first year seemed surreal to me, however, since the trial, I have come to accept the reality of my life going forward. I want to say here that I regret terribly the impact of this matter on my family, my friends and the institutions that are dear to me.”

Gupta stated, “I had the privilege of touching many lives in many fields. I mentored many young people, and many more view me as a role model. I served on many boards and many advisory positions with institutions that I hold in the highest regard.

“I have given a lot of thought to them during these last 18 months. These are extraordinary institutions and outstanding people, and I feel terrible that they have been burdened with totally undeserved negative attention. I apologize to them and ask for their forgiveness.

He noted the predicament of growing industry, stating, “These are very young institutions and in the early years of developing a reputation. I love these institutions as if they were my own children. I never want to hurt them in any way. Most importantly, I regret terribly any potential damage to their outstanding reputations.”

“My family has always meant the world to me. My brothers, sisters, in-laws, nephews and nieces have all surrounded me in these 18 months to comfort me and to give me courage. Every time I look at their faces, I get overcome with a deep sense of letting them down.”

“It is unbearable to me to see how much they have suffered. I just feel terribly that I have put them through this,” said Gupta.

After his prison sentence is up, Gupta will be under a one-year probation period in which he will be under full supervision.
