Sequoia Media Group Announces Merger Agreement With Secure Alliance Holdings Corporation

Draper, UT (Vocus) December 19, 2007

Sequoia Media Group, LC (“Sequoia”) and Secure Alliance Holdings Corporation (OTC: SAHC.PK) (“Secure”) announced on December 6, 2007 that they entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger”). The Merger has been approved by the Board of Managers and the required number of Sequoia members. The Merger closing expressly requires the circulation of a Proxy Statement to Secure’s stockholders and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Secure. If approved, the subsidiary of Secure would merge into Sequoia which would continue as the surviving entity, and the business operations of Sequoia would become the operations of Secure.

Under the Merger each issued and outstanding Sequoia equity interest will automatically be converted into the right to receive approximately 0.581 shares of Secure common stock, calculated after a 1 for 3 reverse stock split of Secure’s common stock contemplated to be effected prior to the Merger. Following the Merger, Sequoia’s members will own approximately 80% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Secure. Secure currently trades on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “SAHC”. Upon the successful completion of the Merger, Secure will file an application to be listed on the OTC Bulletin Board and will continue trading under the symbol “SAHC” until a name change and symbol change are finalized.

Subject to receipt of regulatory approval and prior to the closing of the Merger, Secure intends to form a wholly owned subsidiary and contribute to such subsidiary approximately $ 2.2 million in cash and certain other non-cash assets for the benefit of Secure stockholders as of a date prior to the Merger. It is expected that approximately $ 9.8 million in cash will remain in Secure following the Merger to allow Sequoia to pursue its business objectives.

“A merger with Secure provides us with the cash necessary to pursue our business plans through 2008 and beyond, and with the prospect for public marketplace participation as we forge ahead. We have a great group of owners who have supported us as we developed our aVinci technology and took it to the marketplace, and now others will have the opportunity to participate,” acknowledged Chett B. Paulsen, President of Sequoia.

The President of Secure, Stephen P. Griggs stated, “during the year since the sale of the ATM business, we have carefully considered various opportunities available to Secure to build shareholder value, and we believe Sequoia with its innovative technology and contractual relationships has laid the groundwork to impact the digital media industry. By entering into the merger agreement with Sequoia, Secure’s stockholders will have the chance to join with Sequoia as it works to change the way consumers use images.”

More information regarding the Merger may be found in Secure’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 6th, 2007.

Send Your Spouse a Cheating Message – Without Getting Children Involved

Lives can be torn apart when a spouse cheats. If the two of you share children together, then you should realize that their lives are the most important. When you find out that your spouse has been cheating on you, you should not get the children involved in this matter. One of the worst mistakes people make is to throw their children in the middle of the discussion. This can really have an effect on the children and could cause their grades to drop down. You may see a whole different attitude come from them. In many cases, they will start to point fingers and ‘hate’ the one who cheated. So, how do you send your spouse a cheating message without those children getting involved in it.

Do you think there is something you would be able to do in order to get your spouse to come to you and confess that he or she has been cheating? If this is true, then you may want to think twice about this one. There are so many cheaters out there and they hardly ever “willingly” confess to their spouse. You may need to move on to the next paragraph, because you could be waiting forever for that confession statement from your spouse.

What you need to do is figure out a way that you can confess him or her. Whatever you do, you should make sure you confess them in a quiet method. You may want to schedule your children to stay with someone you trust for the night, so that you can do this in private. When you step up to your spouse with this statement, they may get really angry.

Why are they hiding this affair from you when you already know it is true and have the truth? Is it because they care about your feelings? Well, they shouldn’t have cheated in the first place if they really care about you. At this point, feel free to ask your spouse anything you need to know.

You see, when it comes to how to send a spouse a cheating message, it is not that hard to do. We know, it’s going to take some nerve to stand up to them.

Sabrina Summerfield has been studying marriage problems and relationship issues for the past few years. If you suspect your partner is cheating, why don’t you check out: Send Your Spouse A Cheating Message – http://yourmarriageangel.com/send-your-spouse-a-cheating-message.php

How to write Effectoive Digital signage Content

Digital signage content writing is the art of writing advertising content for an electronic bill board in accordance with the content strategy devised by the company.

 

The text portion of the content conveys the information and should be distinguishable. The titles must be catchy and must arouse the curiosity of the reader. Though it is important to make the content interesting, the viewer should be able to get the message clear. You can add an element of humor too depending on the product and situation.  To enhance readability, you can use bullet points, bold text that needs more focus and use other formatting styles suitably.

 

It is important to do audience and market research to know what other competitors are writing. Know what the consumers needs are as they are the ones for whom the content is written. Writing content that is catchy is one thing and making it complicated by using difficult language or bawdy humour can mar the whole objective.

 

The colour contrast of the content also plays an important role. Fore ground – back ground colour contrast and proper embossment of the text will increase reader’s perception and enhance legibility. Use of proper fonts and colour contrast is necessary to bring out clarity. Not more than five words in a line and not more than three lines should appear on the screen. Cluttering the screen with too much text will make reading difficult and viewers tend to avoid going through such text. Catchy Titles should be used and must have large font size, catchy fonts and attractive colour to get noticed. Ideally, the fonts should be simple and straight, preferably dark in colours with light colour back ground. Use of bold letters discretely can improve the readability.

 

A lot of colours combined together can create a lot of confusion and it is better to stick to single colour code and contrast. Italic fonts should be used sparingly and the letters should be distinguishable. The common colours like blue, red and green are generally used. The colour preference varies from region to region. It will be a good idea to find out general preference of the people in a specific area and use such relevant colour to write the content. Some people think certain colours to be auspicious and accordingly the design can be thought of.

 

The skill of writing digital signage content contains in how effectively he can divert the viewers attention towards the critical information using interesting and attention grabbing content. Use of high contrast items, contrasting bright colours and catchy content are the key focus areas.

 

While writing the content for digital signage you need to understand that every business has unique requirements and thus content must fulfill this. The software helps to change the content in real time and can be interactive.

 

After writing the content for the digital signage, proper scrutiny of all aspects is required. One has to understand that any mistake can take a toll since the mistakes can be glaring. Therefore, before displaying the content, it is necessary to preview the design. Good care of all these aspects will ensure successful content writing for digitally controlled signage.
