Deerfield Beach, FL – PTG Studios is pleased to announce the selection of Heli Modified Corporation for its innovative, educational television series, Competitive Edge. The company will be featured in a segment on "Providing Innovative Comfort & Performance" in the Motorcycle Performance series.

Heli Modified, founded in 1978 by Harry Eddy and incorporated in 1992, produces specialized handlebars for over fifty (50) sport, sport touring and touring motorcycles. Popular applications include the Honda ST1100 and 1300, Kawasaki Concours, Yamaha FJR1300 and the Suzuki Hayabusa to name just a few. that are designed, engineered and built to greatly improve handlebar ergonomics, overall rider safety and control.

Motorcycling can be a thrill at any age but for riders over 40, handlebar ergonomics can make the difference between enjoying a passion or suffering in pain. By removing weight from the rider's hands and wrists and rotating the neck, shoulders and lower back into a more relaxed and vertical riding position, Heli BarsTM will keep the passion going long into the ride.

A small change in the handlebar can make a big difference in the way the bike feels, and the way the rider feels about it. Heli Bars works on three levels: riser height and angle at the fork tube, angle back and angle of bar to riser, and the height and width of the bars. Heli Bars improved ergonomics reduces rider fatigue on long rides allowing the operator to concentrate more on road conditions than aches and pains.

Heli Bars replacement handlebar systems provide motorcyclists with better handling, ergonomics, and greater long distance comfort, without distracting from riding excitement. Every Heli Bar and Heli Tour Performance TM handlebar adapter is model-specific designed. Due to the performance, value, reliability, and quality of Heli Modified products, the company has achieved a level of popularity worldwide as the standard in replacement handlebar systems for motorcycles.

At the heart of every true fan is a sense of team spirit and pride.  When Northville, Michigan wife and mother of four, Susan Walsh, placed a homemade tennis racquet sign in her front yard a few years ago, her creative expression of spirit and pride soon became a local craze.  So much so, that she founded Yard Art, which now features an in-house design staff and a manufacturing facility, and serves fans and gift givers throughout the country.

"Yard Art is built on my passion for the power of pride, believing in your child, yourself, your team, your school or your affiliation," says Susan Walsh, founder and president of Yard Art.  "I feel strongly about celebrating the uniqueness of an individual in a way that not only creates, but shares positive feelings.  You can be certain that we try our hardest to provide a creatively designed quality product at a sensible price that shares pride."

From baseball and basketball to football and soccer, and from skating and skiing to swimming and track, these high quality signs are made to represent a full spectrum of sports and activities, including personalized collegiate designs.  The signs are also designed to commemorate special occasions like birthdays, weddings, baby showers, birth announcements, bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs.  For those who would like to display the signs indoors, they are also available as wall art.

PTG Studios "Competitive Edge" show to feature Crowerpower

June 6, 2007, Deerfield Beach, FL – Platinum Productions TV is pleased to announce that Crowerpower will be featured on its innovative, educational television series, Competitive Edge. The company will be featured in a segment on "Performance Motorcycle Products" in the American Biker's Series.

Anyone in racing will agree that racing is not just a hobby but rather a lifestyle. Dan Crower's lifestyle found a home in the world of motorcycles. Founder of Crowerpower, Dan has been passionate about this lifestyle for over 25 years, and now offers high performance camshafts to propel motorcycle racers to new levels.  While much has been done for the motocross part, Crower also expects more involvement with street bikes in the near future.

Crower's name has been known in the racing industry for over 55 years. Dan's father Bruce was recognized for his dedication to creating innovative products for the drag racing world when he was inducted into the Drag Racing Hall of Fame. Dan has taken his father's same spirit and dedication and applied his knowledge to the world of motorcycle sports.  His company sponsors many motocross riders and race teams alike.

The segment will educate viewers on camshafts. Because camshafts are essential to an engine's performance at different speeds, Crowerpower has designed them with different levels of achievement: the NEW Victory series cams are designed to give four-stroke engines more torque and acceleration.

The Victory or V series camshafts new for 2007 takes the best of what we've offered and streamlines it into what Dan calls his most powerful cam line yet! The horsepower can go from the low end to the top of the RPM range and works best with larger CC engines that have been bored and stroked (a process to increase horsepower).  However Crowerpower can engineer a new custom billet for any four stroke application, dirt, street, Harley auto imports and autos.

Crowerpower also offers Race Head packages including the Sportsman Series and the Pro-Mod Series, Mini Bike Engine kits, Big Bike Engine Kits, and Big Bike-Big Bore kits. Crowerpower customers can also shop for accessories including Red Line oil, LA Sleeve products and Sunoco Fuels. Crower has taken a lot of the same technology he used working on Indy car engines and applied it to bikes. Racers Kyle Lewis, Tim Ferry, Robbie Reynard, Justin Buckelew, Jessica Patterson, Casey Johnson, Tommy Clowers, Clark Stiles, Marty Smith, and Rick Johnson have used Crowerpower parts with great success.

 Spyder Active Sports & Dick's Sporting Goods

--Highlighting the Recluse Systems Jacket--

Aug. 7, 2006 – Deerfield Beach, FL. – New Line Media Solutions is pleased to announce that Spyder Active Sports and Dick's Sporting Goods have teamed up for its  innovative, educational television series called Competitive Edge. The renowned ski apparel brand and the nation's leading sporting goods retailer will be key players in an upcoming segment of Dress for Success – Ready for Action.

The partnership between Spyder and Dick's Sporting Goods was chosen as a segment feature due to each brand's historical relevance in the competitive sports world, as well as their continuing success in dominating the sporting goods industry. 

Based in Boulder, CO, Spyder was founded in 1978 by David Jacobs. Jacobs, a former alpine ski racer, realized there was only one company offering padded ski sweaters for racers.  He began the company out of his kitchen, selling sweaters to serious racers via a one-page catalog. Today, Spyder is the largest ski specialty brand in the world, selling over 600 styles into more than 50 countries. While Spyder still outfits the elite ski competitor, including the U.S., Austrian and Canadian alpine ski teams, its product offering has expanded to include a wide variety of performance and casual lifestyle apparel for any active consumer.
Similarly, Dick's Sporting Goods was founded in 1948, when young entrepreneur Dick Stack recognized a void in the market and opened a modest bait and tackle shop in Binghamton, NY. A decade later, Stack expanded his store's product line to include a variety of sports for enthusiasts and novices alike. Over 58 years later and now over 250 stores strong, Dick's Sporting Goods still offers a vast assortment of well-recognized, top-quality brands at guaranteed low prices and is the largest sporting goods retailer in the United States.

The Competitive Edge show will focus on the Spyder Recluse Systems Jacket – a product available at Dick's Sporting Goods. The Recluse is a 3-in-1 jacket that offers versatility and weather protection through a waterproof, breathable outer shell and a removable, brushed-fleece component. "Consumers opt for 'system' jackets because they provide the value and versatility of three jackets in one", a company spokesperson explained.

PTG Studios “Competitive Edge”to feature NuVim nutritional beverages

PTG Studios "Competitive Edge"to feature NuVim nutritional beverages
 --Public stock quickly rising for dietary aid--

May 29, 2007, Deerfield Beach, FL – Platinum Television Group is pleased to announce the selection of NuVimÒnutritional beverages for its innovative educational television series, The Competitive Edge.  NuVim beverages are being featured in a segment on "Healthy Drinks for Active Individuals" as part of a series on Innovative Health Products.  The series is currently airing on Fox Sports Network, ESPN2, Woman's Entertainment Network, and many other sports and lifestyle networks around the country.

NuVim dietary supplement beverages help to build the immune system, muscle flexibility and sturdy joints.  These consumer benefits are what makes NuVim different and nutritionally better than most other ready-to-drink beverages on the market today.  As the NuVim spokesperson, model Ashleigh Howard says,"I am excited to discover this new drink for myself. Because of my concern about health, I am very selective of the products I use and represent."

Scientists have agreed that inflammation may underlie many chronic diseases that come with aging, including arteriosclerosis, diabetes, Alzheimer's diseases, osteoporosis and many other conditions.  Of course, maintaining a properly functioning immune system is key to long-term health.  A healthy immune system is your body's way of defending itself against disease.

An 8-ounce serving of the drink has just 70 calories, 10 grams of sugar and 12 grams of carbohydrates.  It contains 100% of the recommended daily requirement of zinc, and vitamins E, C and B12.  It is a good source of the daily allowance of calcium (10%), protein (6%), vitamin A (30%) and contains nine essential amino acids.  NuVim is lactose free, caffeine free, fat free, cholesterol free and has no artificial flavors.  

NuVim is also running a series of television commercials that will be informative, motivating people to try the product and feel for themselves the difference NuVim® makes in how they feel all day long. The commercials will be produced by PTG Studios in Deerfield Beach, FL. There will be separate commercials for the refrigerated beverage and the powder version.  Both will highlight the promise of helping to improve long-term high quality of life at every age. 

CEO Rick Kundrat said, "We believe that NuVim® fits with the health-conscious consumer who realizes that proper diet and exercise is the only way to help maintain a strong healthy body, not only for themselves, but their children as well.  NuVim® is a product that, when consumed daily, can play a role in helping to make people feel the difference.  This is especially true when you compare NuVim® as a substitute for many of the other beverages on the market.  We remain committed to product improvement, delivering even higher consumer benefits as we move forward.  In addition, we will continue to work with the American Heart Association, American Cancer Society and other charitable organizations whose mission is also to improve the quality of people's lives."

NuVim® is a one of a kind beverage that is sold in the refrigerated juice section in half-gallon juice cartons in 2,100 supermarkets including over 300 Wal-Mart supercenters on the East Coast.  And it is available in three flavors: Strawberry Vanilla, Orange Tangerine and Fruit Symphony. 

NuVim is based on a $50,000,000 research and development project that spanned over 35 years, involving 150 biologist and 19 clinical trials. NuVim's two proprietary micronutrients MunePro® and AccuFlex® help build the immune system and work to help muscle flexibility and athletic performance. With only 70 calories per 8-ounce serving and its nutritional values, NuVim® could be considered the '"Best Thing You Can Drink." 

So how did this product come to be?   In 1958, Ralph Stolle began exploring the health benefits of nutrients found in cow's milk.  In 1961 Stolle formed a research company dedicated to enhancing the natural benefits of milk.  After 35 years and at a cost of over $50 million, scientists isolated the inherent wellness factors of milk, leading to the discovery of the patented micronutrients now used in NuVim beverages. 

According to a study, at least 57% of Americans believe that foods and beverages can replace some drugs, and shoppers try to lower their risk of getting an illness through their food and beverage purchases. 

The popularity of NuVim continues to grow, and the product has now sold over 23 million servings to date. The stock is now publicly traded under the symbol NUVMU. NuVim® in powder form for use with beverages and yogurt can be ordered from the NuVim® web-site at www.nuvim.com or by calling toll free: 1-877-850-8777.
