All-Time Top Rated Documentary on IMDB is Heima

''Heima'' Rated Top All-Time Documentary on IMDB

LOS ANGELES-- June 27, 2008 --Heima, the 2007 documentary film that chronicles a tour by Icelandic group Sigur Ros, has been named the number-one documentary of all time by widely respected movie industry source IMDB. Alan Calzatti, director of Musicians Institute's Music Video-Film-Television program, served as Director of Photography on the location shoot (widely praised for its stunning visuals) and the group later completed post-production on the film in MI's studios.

Since opening its doors in 1977, Musicians Institute (www.mi.edu) has primed over 20,000 musicians, producers, engineers, vocalists, and industry professionals for successful careers in every genre of contemporary music. Located just blocks from the Capitol Records tower, MI has an incredible history of innovation dating back to its origins in 1977 as the Guitar Institute of Technology (GIT), which broke new ground as a performance-based contemporary music school taught by working professionals. Within a few years, GIT was joined by bass and drum programs to form Musicians Institute and the evolution has continued to this day with degree and certificate programs for career-minded guitarists, bassists, drummers, vocalists, keyboardists, recording engineers, independent producers, guitar makers, music business professionals and filmmakers.

The program is simple to use and requires just three steps:

Shopping Website Saves Bargain Shoppers Time

New Full Service Shopping Website saves Online Bargain Shoppers Time and Aggravation

FindMyBargains.com is a new full service bargain site that provides tools to help bargain shoppers easily find great deals online. They deal with the aggravation and you save time and money. Subscribe to the Bargain Hunter emails, see the deals of the day, shop their selected discount stores, do price comparisons or use their free personal shopping service. Saving money has never been so easy!

Mount Laurel, NJ  -  March 13, 2008 -- Every one is looking to save some extra money. Bargain shoppers know it takes a lot of time to find great deals online. Now The Bargain Hunter at findmybargains.com offers a full service, simply designed website that helps shoppers easily save money. They deliver a free service that saves shoppers the time of hunting through emails and searching online stores to find great deals. Shoppers can register with The Bargain Hunter in the shopping category or categories of their choice such as items for men, women or children, items for the home, electronics or tools and gadgets and start receiving weekly emails of the best bargains found online. Typically the deals found are highly rated and save the consumer 40 to 80% off the retail price. Visitors can also use the site to do price comparisons, search the bargain archives, find daily deals or submit a free personal shopping request.

Says Debra, an avid online shopper who registered with FindMyBargains, "I was impressed by the quality of selections and the helpful comments. The Bargain Hunter found me a great deal on a digital camera. It had a high consumer rating and saved me 50%! I don't know how long it would have taken me to find this bargain myself. They even let you know of other discounts available, like coupon codes and free shipping. What a great service!".

FindMyBargains was developed by Dolores Curley, an expert online shopper, who knows the best stores on the web and the ways to find the best bargains. "It takes a lot of time to find great deals. As a shopper myself I didn't always have the time and was looking for a better way to shop online. I was getting so many emails from all of the stores I had visited that it was getting ridiculous. I just couldn't keep up with all of the "secret sales" that were announced! That's when I came up with the idea of the Bargain Hunter. Now there is an easy way for online shoppers to find the best deals!"

Dolores explains, "We started in November 2007 with only bargain emails and expanded to the full service site we are today." Most recently added is the Free Personal Shopping Service. "We get all types of requests. The most unique so far was when a visitor asked us to compare meal delivery services. We found four services and compared all of the features. We try to answer all shopping requests and post our findings for all of our visitors to see."

You can choose to register for bargain emails or use the site to find your own bargains. Either way Find My Bargains is a refreshing bargain shopping site that is easy to navigate and offers shoppers a simple way to save time and money.

"We truly have taken the work out of bargain hunting for online shoppers!"

Find My Bargains, although newly developed, has already been recognized by the Cool Site of the Day in November 2007, by Women's World Magazine as a featured hot web site in their February11, 2008 issue and most recently received a Squeal of Approval from Mr Modem - web guru and publisher.
