Grove won the same honor in several previous years, distinguishing himself among colleagues nationwide.

In addition, Grove has been ranked nationally as one of the top ten long-term care insurance specialists, for the last 18 years in a row, by the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance.

Grove partners with employee benefit brokers to educate Maine's workforce on the risks associated with long-term care and ways to protect against them. He was recently promoted to National Director of Worksite Solutions for LTCFP.

The LTCFP award is especially noteworthy since the company's 500-plus agents are regarded as the nation's leading specialists in long-term care planning. "My colleagues and I specialize exclusively in long term care insurance," he says. "We're veterans with years of experience."

What does it mean to be the top producer? "One way to look at it," says Grove, "is that I placed the greatest number of policies. Another way to look at it, which I prefer, is that I have helped thousands of families protect their independence and life savings from the devastating effects of long term care costs."

About Todd Grove:
He is a Founding Partner of LTCFP, one of the nation's largest and most experienced long-term care insurance agencies. Licensed in 11 states, he has been involved exclusively with long-term care insurance for more than 20 years. Grove represents major insurance carriers that demonstrate an ongoing commitment to the industry, strong financial stability, and commitment to paying claims.

Patent Now Pending on a New Vitamin E Foam Manufacturing Process.

AUBURN, Maine, July 19 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- A U.S. patent has been filed by Enefco USA for a new process of applying Vitamin E as a surface coating on non-latex hydrophilic polyurethane cosmetic foam. The patent pending process adds Vitamin E to the foam after the foam is manufactured and impregnates the foam in a range from surface coating to complete saturation.

"Vitamin E hydrophilic polyurethane foam is in high demand in the cosmetic industry," says Peter Klein, President/CEO at Enefco USA, Inc. "Our customers have been requesting a more cost effective and consistent Vitamin E foam."

"We are very pleased with how our process successfully coats and penetrates our cosmetic foams with Vitamin E," said John Condon, Director of Operations for Enefco.

"We can vary the surface concentration of Vitamin E applied. Once the cosmetic foam is thoroughly coated it passes through our system of rollers designed to aid the penetration of Vitamin E. The new process does not change the consistent softness of our cosmetic foams, which still maintains its supple, velveteen feel and texture. The Vitamin E is available on any foam densities we manufacture."

About Enefco USA, Inc.:
Enefco, operating in Auburn, Maine for over 90 years, manufactures high-quality non-latex hydrophilic polyurethane cosmetic foam. Our experienced manufacturing abilities allow us to manufacture, cut, and package cosmetic foam within our 75,000 square foot manufacturing facility.

Worldwide and a team returned from Port au Prince, Haiti last week they had just one word to describe the most urgent need in that earthquake ravaged nation: TENTS! The team, consisting of five men from New York State, brought much needed food and medical supplies but the request for tents soon rose above all others. Maine residents can get involved now.

Says Bishop Pierce: "The population is now living under scraps of cardboard and cloths that give some relief from the sun, but shortly the rainy season will be here and the people will be wet and cold. In their weakened state this will cause yet another round of sickness, suffering and death. And, I would want more than a roll of plastic for my family."

In response to this need a grass-roots movement of churches is forming across all denominational lines. Various ministries are now banding together to collect tents for shipment to Haiti before rains hit the last week of March (www.Tents2Haiti.org). So far tents are being collected from churches and individuals for delivery to regional centers in the states of New York, Georgia, Florida, North and South Carolina and Maine.

"This is how we can help people in Haiti in a practical way," says volunteer coordinator Mark Swiger, "Just about every family in America has a tent in storage that will mean life or death to a family in Haiti."

If you are a Church, individual or business in this area and would like to donate tents, the local collection site for this area is:
LifeChurch
8 Elkins Drive
Gorham, Maine 04038
Telephone: (207)-839-6354.

HOW YOU CAN HELP NOW:
INDIVIDUALS IN MAINE: Mail or deliver your personal tent (3 man or larger) to the above collection site for delivery before March 23rd, 2010.

MAINE CHURCHES/BUSINESSES: Have Church members bring tents (3 man and larger) to a Sunday service (or workplace if you own a business) and then deliver the tents to the collection site listed above before March 23rd, 2010.

FMI and cash donations go to www.Tents2Haiti.org.

Removes adhesive build up and cleans thermal print heads for all industries.

AUBURN, Maine, Oct. 12 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The new Dual Action Cleaning Pen, designed to remove stubborn adhesive build up from thermal print heads, is being released today by KICTeam. Using the same convenient marker-style design currently found with the EZ Thermal Printer Cleaning Pen, this new pen has two separate marker nibs to perform two very distinct functions. The first nib carries an adhesive remover to make it possible to easily remove adhesives caused during printing of label stock and linerless labels.

The second nib carries the same isopropyl alcohol recommended by all thermal printer manufacturers to properly clean the print head. The combination of both products in one easy-to-use pen creates a very versatile product for maintaining thermal printers.

"The adhesive build up created when printing label and linerless label stock with a thermal printer is unavoidable," said Debra Ross, Product Manager of KICTeam. "Like any fine piece of machinery a little maintenance will go a long way to prolong the life of the equipment. By simply removing the adhesives that build up with the adhesive remover end of the pen, then cleaning the print head with the IPA end, you have easily accomplished what the thermal printer manufacturers recommend. The Dual Action Cleaning Pen keeps the print head and platen roller clean of contaminates and sticky adhesives."

Label printing is an everyday activity in almost all industries. The accuracy of the information on the label is directly related to the cleanliness of the print head. Barcodes could easily be misrepresented with a stray line caused by adhesive or paper dust build up on the print head. The readable characters on labeled medicine or sample vials could become illegible. Most errors can be easily corrected with a simple cleaning. The Dual Action Cleaning Pen is the proper tool to clean thermal print heads.

Waffletechnology cleaning cards are used in all industries.

AUBURN, Maine, July 8 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- A patent has been issued for a unique feature of KICTeam's Waffletechnology® cleaning cards, adding a level of protection to a growing cleaning card market. "We have been pursuing this patent since the early stages of Waffletechnology development and are pleased to have received the first of what we anticipate will be multiple patents," said Peter Klein, President/CEO at KICTeam, Inc.

He added, "The Waffletechnology products are a huge success and have attracted a large number of Blue Chip OEMs - Original Equipment Manufacturers - who were seeking a cleaning tool for their equipment. When your largest end-user customer, New York City Transit, recognizes the effectiveness of Waffletechnology and is willing to upgrade all of their cleaning cards from flat to Waffletechnology with a cost increase, it is a testament to the effectiveness and legitimacy of the product. We decided early on to file a series of patent applications to aggressively protect our intellectual property."

"Our products have evolved with the equipment they maintain," said Debra Ross, Product Manager at KICTeam. "We invented our Waffletechnology cleaning cards to answer new problems arising in the transaction industry that our historical flat products could not solve. Since the first Waffletechnology product was released in 2004, we have launched 67 new products. The majority of these have developed from OEM requests to create a cleaning tool that will maintain the operation of their equipment. We have made products for JCM in the bill acceptor/validator industry, TransAct Technologies and Datamax-O'Neil in the Thermal Printer Industry, VidTroniX for its airline bag tag and boarding pass printers, and Panini, Epson and Canon for their check scanners used in the banking industry. We take pride in our OEM partnerships and the successful products that develop from them."

Waffletechnology® products have the ability to clean today's transaction equipment, which is susceptible to dust and pollution entering in and covering sensitive read heads and optical sensors. Until recently, most equipment needed to be opened by a technician to be properly cleaned, this is both costly and time consuming. Waffletechnology products provide a solution to this problem with their unique design, which allows them to clean areas without opening the equipment. Now, most equipment can be regularly cleaned and maintained by anybody who uses that equipment. For more information, visit: www.waffletechnology.com.
