Author Jen Crompton’s New Book Fueling Your Best

Havertown, PA, April 01, 2024 — Jen Crompton, who is a writer, fit-pro, entrepreneur, marketer, and teacher, has completed her new book, “Fueling Your Best: The 90-Day Challenge”: a journey focused on guiding readers toward making incremental changes that will lead to a transformation into their best selves.
Throughout her life, author Jen Crompton has been an advocate for helping others live healthier and happier lives by learning to love fitness, embrace their strengths, and work toward a healthier and more holistic definition of “fitness.” As a lifelong athlete and fitness guru, Jen and her husband, Jeff, opened a fitness studio in 2015 (just six months after their son was born). They had one goal: to provide a welcoming, non-judgmental, and safe space to build a community of like-minded people who wanted to be healthier and happier and have fun getting there.
Through their endeavor, they invited thousands of people into their studio to enjoy boxing fitness, cycle classes, their signature Pedal and Punch, Boxing and Beats, and Cycle and Circuit formats and made a positive impact that transcended beyond their four walls. During the pandemic, Jen launched free virtual fitness classes and online workshops to keep her community healthy and happy while providing a sense of community and purpose.
In addition, Jen launched a Boxing and Brunch program to support young women by empowering them to be confident through fitness, financial education, and general life skills that are often overlooked within the established public-school curriculum. Jen continues to push for change and to encourage every person she encounters to reach their full potential.
Jen writes, “FUELing your best is the idea of feeling fit in all aspects of your life—from your mind to your body, to your soul…and into your pocket. You can only be your best when you feel your best. And you feel your best when you are in control and able to work toward ‘success’ (whatever version of that definition resonates with you) in all aspects of your life.”
She continues, “Know that success is subjective. Your success is yours—it’s what will make you fulfilled and happy. Success is not defined by the amount of money or material things you possess. Instead, it is defined by how complete you feel and happy you are with yourself.”

Lora Mae Miller’s Newly Released Forever and a Day

Anaheim, CA, April 01, 2024 –“Forever and a Day”: a compelling contemporary fiction. “Forever and a Day” is the creation of published author, Lora Mae Miller, a pastor’s daughter and a pastor’s wife who was educated at Southwest Missouri State and the University of Oregon, where she majored in art and psychology.
Miller shares, “The main characters, Shaylene and Matthew, are normal kids who met, fell in love, and answered the call to the mission field in Cuba.
“Their love story is fraught with separation due to war, memory loss (amnesia), and unusual circumstances. God was obviously training them for their sojourn on the mission field.
“Once on the field in Cuba, they come up against many strange people, including witch doctors, who are out to destroy them and their ministry using incantations and witchcraft and all sorts of devious ploys.
“They also encounter storms that ruin their living quarters and allow them to see the love and care of the natives to whom they’ve been ministering. They experience the death of family members and the unexplainable antics of a mysterious white dog.
“This story is based on actual experiences that have occurred and are still happening because God is a God of miracles, and He shows up wherever people know and love Him—and believe—not just one time but Forever and a Day.”
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Lora Mae Miller’s new book displays an action-packed and concise tale brimming with unexpected twists.
Consumers can purchase “Forever and a Day” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.

SMC Presents Secondary Battery Solutions at NAATBatt
Noblesville, IN, April 01, 2024 — In line with this focus, SMC presented on a variety of solutions for applications in the industry. SMC’s standard pneumatic and electric products play a crucial role in the advanced battery industry as they are well suited for automating cell assembly. SMC products are utilized across various advanced battery applications, including raw material mining, battery cell manufacturing, battery pack assembly, EV manufacturing, EV component recycling, and related EV services. As lasers have become more common in the cell assembly industry, SMC’s chillers have offered temperature control solutions for these applications, too.
Furthermore, SMC contributes significantly to the advanced battery industry through products specifically tailored for secondary battery environments. SMC’s 25A Series product line is designed using material compatible with secondary battery applications and is engineered for use in low dewpoint environments. These specialized products eliminate copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) material where possible. The 25A Series products are used in battery manufacturing applications including the following:
· Electro production: mixing and kneading machine; coating and rolling; slitting
· Cell assembly: winding; attaching tabs; welding cell lid and pouring electrolytic solution; pre-charging and welding infusion plug; punching electrodes; stacking; tab welding and lamination; sealing
· Inspection and packaging: charging/discharging and aging; packaging
In addition to presenting at the conference, SMC leaders had the opportunity to gain deeper insights into the current landscape of the industry. Mike Shillito, the National Sales Manager in New Energy Systems at SMC Corporation of America, reflected on his experience, stating, “One big takeaway for me is that the battery industry has vast potential for growth. There is a wide array of chemistries such as Li-cobalt, Li-Phosphate (LFP), NMC, NCM, and cutting-edge technologies like solid state, semi-solid, and electrolyte to explore.” Shillito further elaborated on market dynamics, noting the absence of a clear favorite among these technologies. He emphasized, “Preferences will be driven by considerations such as charge efficiency, safety, scalability, and recycling. Recycling is very important in this circular industry, and the effective, safe, and profitable recycling of these materials will be crucial for long-term success.”
Building upon these insights, Gary Heinonen, Global Automotive Industry Manager at SMC, shared how SMC is actively preparing to meet the demands of this expanding market, both in North America and globally. Heinonen stated, “There continue to be huge investments from government entities, such as the Department of Energy, into the industry. Even with the ‘softening’ of EV car sales, the battery infrastructure is moving full speed ahead. I believe this will trigger more US machine builders (OEMs) to pivot toward producing battery equipment as more US content is being required. SMC definitely has a focused approach to the growing secondary battery market: while Asia and Europe are well ahead of the US market, we are aligning our strategies globally to ensure we are prepared to meet the challenges in the US market.”
In preparation for this expanding market, SMC released 16 new products for the secondary battery industry in 2023, had 7 new products in production, and 11 new products in design.
