Statesthatallowgaymarriage.com to Accept Gay Marriage Announcements

 

stagm

 Until today, there were no dedicated websites for same-sex couples to post their gay wedding announcements. Gay couples may also encounter opposition when requesting their announcement be published in their local newspapers, even in states where gay marriage laws have changed.

"You would think with all the negative news being reported in this world, these newspapers would open up their pages to love and support equal marriage rights," explained Michael Zuyus, founder of  www.statesthatallowgaymarriage.com

FROOTSFROOTS        

Gay-Friendly Franchise  

 

The difference between Froots and other smoothie concepts is that Froots is actually a quick service restaurant. We are not just a juice bar or a smoothie shop. We are a healthy food destination. Invariably, when we open a Froots in a new market, customers first visit our locations to "check out the new smoothie shop in town". But when they get inside and see wraps with unique flavor profiles like Wasabi Chicken and Kingston Jerk or gourmet salads like The Chinese Chicken, they quickly come to think of Froots as a healthy alternative to traditional fast food fare. Providing our customers with a full menu of healthy offerings is what defines and differentiates the Froots Smoothies brand.

hourglass Business Succession Planning for LGBT 

Business Owners 

  

By Angela D. Gianpolo   

 

Proper estate planning is particularly important for the LGBT community due to the fact that same-sex marriage is not legal in most states and even in those states, same-sex couples are not afforded the privileges and benefits of federal law.   With that said, even those with estate plans often do not take into consideration ownership interests in companies.   Business succession planning is crucial to ensure the successful transfer of your company or to properly provide for your life partner and yet few business owners have planned for the eventual transfer of their business interests.
