NEW EP DUE OUT THIS SPRING
COVER OF "SHAPE OF YOU" (ED SHEERAN)
FEATURED ON POPSUGAR
APRIL 4, 2017 - CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA - Alternative pop band, Drawing North, have premiered their new single, "Stay", exclusively today with Impose. Listen HERE. "'Stay' is an energetic song that makes you dance - on your feet or in your chair, you choose", Impose notes. The track is the first release and lead single from Drawing North's forthcoming new EP, due out this spring. For more information on Drawing North, please visit: http://wearedrawingnorth.com/.
The release of "Stay" follows the band's recent cover of Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You". The cover song premiered last month with Popsugar, who wrote, "We'd jam out to Ed Sheeran's version in the car, but this is the mix you'd want on at the club." Both these recent releases represent a departure for the band, as they take on more electronic and experimental elements than previously heard.
Drawing North is composed of Michael 'Po' Pogson (lead vocals), Drew Southwell (piano, drums, guitar, vocals) and Jake Allen (bass, guitar, drums). Since forming in 2010, the three friends have constantly been at work, whether it be booking their own 40-date school tour of Australia, recording acoustic releases endorsed by Joel Madden of Good Charlotte or playing festivals such as SXSW, Sundance Film Festival, Australia Celebrates Live, Vans Warped Tour Australia and Groovin The Moo.
In 2016, Drawing North released their debut album, El Dorado, which was produced by James Wisner (Paramore) and released through Universal Music. The album peaked at #3 on the iTunes charts and received across-the-day airplay at Nova Brisbane,
Canberra's FM104.7 and Sydney's KIISFM Planet Rock.
Today, Drawing North have played over 200 shows and supported international and homegrown artists such as Paul Kelly, Jessica Mauboy and Sheppard. As a result of constant touring and online promotion, the band accumulated an ever-growing online fan base, with over 35,000 fans across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and over 400,000 views on YouTube.
"Stay" is the lead single from Drawing North's recently completed EP, due out this spring.

Marc Harrison, MD, Intermountain Healthcare President and CEO
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, USA, April 4, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In an hour-long presentation on April 4 to about 400 community and healthcare leaders at Intermountain Medical Center in Salt Lake City, Marc Harrison, MD, Intermountain Healthcare president and CEO, outlined how Utah is faring much better than most places in the U.S. for healthcare services at affordable costs.
Despite national healthcare challenges and uncertainty with possible health reforms looming, Intermountain is meeting the needs of the communities it serves in a strong and effective manner, said Dr. Harrison.
Dr. Harrison highlighted Utah’s strong economy and the lowest per-capita healthcare costs, and he presented many initiatives underway to help keep the state in this enviable position.
Dr. Harrison said there are challenges that need to be addressed, such as uncertainty in potential national health reforms. He cited the fact that in 20 of Utah’s 29 counties, Intermountain’s SelectHealth insurance plans are the only Affordable Care Act exchange option available, illustrating concerns about the present system.
Other highlights in the presentation included:
• Intermountain operates 21 hospitals in Utah and one in Idaho, 180 clinics, and provides health insurance to 852,000 people through SelectHealth.
• As Utah’s largest private employer with 39,000 caregivers, Intermountain directly and indirectly contributes to more than 143,000 jobs, accounting for 7.7 percent of all employment in the state and making up 6.6 percent of Utah’s GDP.
• $1.74 billion will be spent in the next five years on new Intermountain construction projects in Utah.
• A national study found that Intermountain is ranked as one of the top five healthcare models for innovation, along with the Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic.
• Providing efficient care and reducing costs resulted in reduced patient charges of more than $900 million in 2016.
• Charity care, provided to residents in the Intermountain region, totaled $419 million in 2016 and helped patients in nearly 249,000 cases. Community clinics operated by or supported by Intermountain cared for an additional 456,000 low-income patients.
• Clinical outcome measures are improving, and in many instances, lead the nation. For example, in the last five years in the Salt Lake Valley, 99.8 percent of Intermountain’s heart attack patients received lifesaving treatment to open a blocked artery in less than 90 minutes. No other hospital system in the nation has achieved this.
• Implementation of a mental health integration treatment model significantly improved health outcomes while reducing costs by three percent. This model was honored last week with an award as the nation’s top population health program.
• Intermountain’s telehealth services have helped care for 242,000 patients since 2013.
• Intermountain helped educate 2,762 nursing students at its facilities in 2016, providing nearly $36 million in education for health professionals from various disciplines.
• Intermountain was involved in 1,589 research studies during the past year and published 402 studies.
• Intermountain is taking the approach of “moving upstream” to improve health in the community. This includes the LiVe Well public service campaign, creating a healthy eating environment at medical facilities, and supporting community health initiatives.
• An environmental focus has resulted in 14 facilities receiving LEED certification, with eight more LEED-certified facilities in design. Conservation efforts have resulted in reductions of water use by 8.8 million gallons annually, a reduction in power usage by 2.2 million kilowatts annually, and 6.9 million pounds of recycling annually.

When it comes to mesothelioma compensation in Utah please don't shortchange yourself by not hiring the nation's most skilled, experienced, and capable mesothelioma attorneys”
— Utah Mesothelioma Victims Center
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, USA, April 4, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Utah Mesothelioma Victims Center says, "Utah is an energy state and coal fired power plants were and are still a big part of Utah's electrical energy production. We are compensation advocates for people in Utah who now have mesothelioma because they were exposed to asbestos at a power plant in Utah. As we would like to discuss anytime at 800-714-0303 if you have mesothelioma in Utah please call us anytime about why it is incredibly vital to have the nation's most skilled mesothelioma attorneys assisting with the financial compensation claim process." http://Utah.MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com
The Center believes the biggest mistake a person in a state like Utah can make is-if they or their loved one receives the grim news of a confirmed mesothelioma diagnosis-they think reaching out to a local car accident law firm for assistance with a financial compensation claim for mesothelioma is a good idea. Acting compulsively when it comes to hiring a lawyer or law firm for a mesothelioma financial claim can result in the diagnosed person losing out on hundreds of thousands or much more.
Vital financial compensation tip from the Utah Mesothelioma Victims Center for a person in Utah who was exposed to asbestos at a coal fired power plant, "When it comes to mesothelioma compensation in Utah please don't shortchange yourself by not hiring the nation's most skilled, experienced, and capable mesothelioma attorneys. Call us at 800-714-0303 before you hire a lawyer-law firm to assist with a mesothelioma financial compensation claim in Utah." http://Utah.MesotheliomaVictimsCenter.Com.

* Utah produced 1.8% of U.S. coal in 2014 and shipped 30% of that production out of the state, of which just over half was exported.
* Utah's five refineries process crude oil primarily from Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, and Canada; the UNEV pipeline, opened in late 2011, was the first to connect Utah's refineries to Las Vegas, the largest city in Nevada.
* In 2015, coal produced less than 76% of Utah's net electricity generation and natural gas produced 19%; in 2005, coal produced 94% and natural gas, 3%. State planners expect the natural gas share to continue rising as older coal units are shut down.

* Utah has a voluntary goal of obtaining 20% of the state's 2025 adjusted retail electric sales from cost-effective eligible renewable energy resources; in 2015, 4.3% of utility-scale net electricity generation came from renewable resources.
The Utah Mesothelioma Victims Center would like to emphasize theirs is a statewide initiative available to a diagnosed victim anywhere in Utah including communities such as Salt Lake City, Provo, West Jordan, Sandy Hills, Ogden, Saint George.
