PHOENIX (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

When it comes to New Year's Resolutions, there is some bad news and some good news. The bad news is that only about 8 percent of people who make New Year's Resolutions ultimately end up keeping them. But the good news is that GiangisKitchen.com has put together a list of worthy New Year's Resolutions for 2019 that any domestic gourmet can easily keep — regardless of whether they are brand new to the world of culinary arts, or if they are a veteran chef.

The list of suggested resolutions is available on the award-winning GiangisKitchen.com blog at https://www.giangiskitchen.com/new-year-resolutions, and include:

At least a few times in 2019, think outside the recipe box and try something completely new and different. People who prefer to take it slow and easy can try creating snacks, before they dive into a full meal for their family.

Throughout 2019, try to spend more time cooking together as a family. This does not mean being in the same general area. It means everyone rolling up their sleeves and making a contribution, such as preparing ingredients, mixing sauces, setting the table and so on.

Sometime during the year ahead, go ahead and purchase a coveted piece of cooking equipment, such as a pressure cooker, food processor, melting drome, cookie press, and so on. It will open up a new world of recipe possibilities, and make cooking even more fun and creative.

In addition to suggesting these fun and feasible pledges for the year ahead, Giangi Townsend, the food maven behind GiangisKitchen.com, also shared her personal 2019 New Year's Resolutions that include: finishing her cookbook, publishing at least two new recipes a week, and creating more original content for the website's global community such as tips, life hacks, step-by-step videos, and more.

Access GiangisKitchen.com is free, and no sign-up is required. The recently re-designed website also features money-saving offers and coupons, and is optimized for all screens including tablets and smartphones.

For additional information on GiangisKitchen.com, including advertising, marketing and media inquiries, email giangi(at)giangiskitchen(dot)com or visit http://www.giangiskitchen.com. Visitors can also subscribe to get a weekly recipe round-up delivered to their inbox.

PITTSBURGH (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

MyWay Mobile Storage of Pittsburgh was pleased to join with Cintas First Aid and Safety and Fire Divisions to host the 5th Annual Cornhole Classic that raised an amazing $25,000 for the Veteran's Place of Washington Boulevard. The September 2018 event was held at the dome at the RMU Island Sports Center. Jeff Hancher, Global Account Manager at Cintas, created the event in 2014 as a way to give back to veterans returning home. Ed Sickmund, MyWay Mobile Storage Market Owner and former Cintas General Manager, loved the idea and immediately joined on as co-host.

Hancher, commented, "The event has really grown. The number of teams has more than tripled. More importantly, the money we raise has more than tripled. That first year, I think it was about $6,000. Including the $25,000 we raised this year, all together we've raised more than $85,000 to support our veterans who sacrifice so much for our country."

Cintas Fire Protection Sales Director, Rochelle Jedinak, who helped organize the event said, "I can't say enough about our beneficiary, Veterans Place. They are terrific to work with and bring so much energy to the event."
There were more than 60 cornhole teams competing for bragging rights and the $300 first place prize. Cornhole boards were built for the event by the Carpenters Joint Apprentice Training Committee (JATC) with lumber donated by 84 Lumber.

"I'm so glad we could do something to help veterans in our community," says event organizer, Ed Sickmund. "These brave individuals need our support now more than ever." Sickmund continued, "Veteran's Place has the vision to develop strong community partnerships, bringing collective networks and expertise to help Veterans grow and thrive. We applaud that vision, and love that that the money raised by Pittsburghers at this event will be put to good use helping Pittsburghers."

"We were thrilled to be a part of this terrific event," said Rob Hamilton, Veterans Place Director of Operations. "People don't realize that veterans are more than twice as likely as civilians to become homeless during their lifetimes. We have found that about 1 in 5 homeless adults is a veteran. This event gives us a chance to raise awareness of the issue and the money raised will help us help veterans transition from Homeless to Home."

"Fundraisers like this cornhole tournament help the Veteran's Place expand and improve our programs for veterans in the Pittsburgh area," said Marlon Ferguson, of Veteran's Place. "Every dollar raised helps us continue uniquely structured programs to transition to employment and housing. We try to help every Veteran and their circumstances. We help them find a program that fits them and their needs," Ferguson continued, "We want veterans to remember, you are not alone in this journey. We are here to support you as you progress."

HENDERSON, NEV. (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

Knoah Solutions, Inc., a global business process outsourcing company, today unveiled an expansion plan to immediately increase capacity at its nearshore facility in Guatemala City, Guatemala with additional space to accommodate further anticipated growth.    

With the success we experienced in our two locations in Honduras, we added a location in Guatemala City in early 2018, which has proven its value by allowing us to offer scalable and cost-effective options to our customers. The current expansion blueprint of our new center includes dedicated conference and training spaces, an IT room, and biometric security in a multi-story facility near the U.S. embassy that the company first moved into last year. The increase in capacity marks the progress we are making towards our move to a larger, flagship facility later this year.

"We're excited to continue Knoah's investment in Latin America to support our U.S. clients that are looking for high quality bilingual agents with excellent customer service and technical skills," said Manfred Alvarez, Knoah VP for Latin American Operations. "Guatemala is a complementary location to our Honduras operations with easy access to the airport and other business services. This is a commitment to our continued growth over the next five years and further enhances our presence with two locations in Central America."

Latin America is an emerging market in the Business Process Outsourcing industry, with forecasted revenues of $506-million in 2019. Guatemala features a population with a high degree of fluency in English, favorable labor and operating costs, and the continued expansion of its IT infrastructure to support BPO operations. "Guatemala City has a fairly mature BPO community that will make it easier for us to hire and develop experienced management and agent talent as we expand here," continued Alvarez.

Knoah currently has nearly 700 agents and support personnel working from two contact centers in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The Knoah center in Guatemala City currently provides real-time language interpretation services for the medical industry. The new space is expected to fill quickly based on recent demand for bilingual customer service and technical support agents in the region.    

About Knoah:
Regardless of your company's size or outsourcing needs, Knoah Solutions' agile, globally-deployed BPO services deliver award-winning results that enhance your brand and fit your budget. Our RightENGAGE customer engagement model, OneKnoah process philosophy, and cutting-edge technology and analytics powered by our proprietary WFO tool, ARK360, ensure we can meet the needs and challenges of each of your customers through every channel: voice, chat, email, and social media. Knoah has the flexibility that big BPO companies can't provide and a global infrastructure and mature operational process that smaller BPO companies can't deliver on. Knoah's consultative approach to outsourcing has repeatedly earned us awards and recognition from independent review bodies like Gartner, Everest Group, and IAOP.

TOKYO (PRWEB) JANUARY 04, 2019

Trigence Semiconductor Inc., the leading pure digital audio IC and solution provider, today introduced the latest 3D Sound technology to the audio market. Trigence 3D Sound technology provides excellent 3-dimensional stereo sound experience for small speaker systems over a narrow distance and enriched sound effect in all kinds of audio devices such as desktops, notebooks, speakers, sound bars, and portable devices.

3D Sound Technology

The 3D Sound technology is developed exclusively by Trigence experienced R&D team in Japan. Trigence 3D Sound technology provides excellent sound experience for small speakers and portable devices. Traditional small speakers produce a narrow range and unclear sound localization due to crosstalk between the listening positions in each channel. With Trigence 3D Sound technology, you can create wide and deep sound positioning using an innovative crosstalk cancellation design, along with DTSC-based minimum phase control and minimal DSP calculations (approximately 5 MIPS per channel) for a true speaker on-chip model. 3D Sound technology benefits audio device manufacturers creating an extended sound field, clear sound localization, and 3D effect by deploying just the usual stereo sound source and stereo speaker instead of adding special sound source encoding or hardware.

"Trigence experienced audio professionals have always been working to improve sound effect processing and provide an excellent sound quality experience, providing customers with the most convenient and time-saving solutions. Trigence 3D sound technology will optimize the listening experience of small speakers, computers and portable devices," said Pete Birch, President and CEO of Trigence.

Features

Comfortable Sound Feeling

It makes comfortable sound feeling by newly developed crosstalk cancellation using only small delay, and has unique features that the sound field and image are hardly affected by the listening position and head direction, using some built-in parameters to maintain the vocal sound and low frequency audio.

Playback on Portable Audio Product

It offers sufficient 3D effect with low power consumption. If an audio system has a built in DSP, it only needs 5 MIPS per channel.

Playback from Stereo Source/Speaker

It creates an extended sound field, with clear sound localization and 3D feeling over top/ bottom/ left / right with just the usual stereo sound source and stereo speaker. It requires only the T/S parameters of the speaker, distance between speakers, and distance from the speaker to the listening position.

About Trigence Semiconductor, Inc.
Trigence Semiconductor, Inc. is a pioneering audio IC design and solution provider, offering revolutionary 'pure digital' audio products for the consumer and IT markets. Founded in 2006 as a spin-off from Hosei University and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Trigence received its first investment in 2012 from Intel Capital.

CHICO, CALIF. (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

Together with more than 1,400 breweries around the country, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. celebrated the release of Resilience Butte County Proud IPA with a nationwide pint night. The breweries celebrated "Resilience Night" on Thursday, December 20, 2018 in taprooms from coast to coast to raise funds for the Camp Fire relief effort. Recently, Founder Ken Grossman, teamed with YourUpdateTV to discuss the initiative, and how people can get involved.

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/cuuVSRMBA-M

Resilience IPA is a collaborative fundraising effort for those impacted by Northern California's Camp Fire. The Camp Fire, which started in the hills above Sierra Nevada's Chico brewery last month, was the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California history, killing at least 86 people and displacing more than 14,000 families, including many Sierra Nevada employees. In the days following the fire, Sierra Nevada announced plans to brew Resilience IPA and donate 100% of the sales to the Sierra Nevada Camp Fire Relief Fund. The company invited every brewery in the country to brew the beer and donate 100% of the sales to the fund, as well.

"The brewing community has come together in this large-scale fundraising effort," said Sierra Nevada founder and owner Ken Grossman. "Now we're asking drinkers to come together and help us raise funds by buying the beer. And what better way to do it than with a nationwide pint night?" If the beer sells out, the project could raise more than $15 million for direct Camp Fire relief.

"We are so grateful to the breweries, the suppliers, the wholesalers and retailers who have so graciously donated their time and resources to make this happen," said Grossman. "With their help—and the help of the drinkers everywhere—we'll be able to make a lasting and impactful difference in the lives of those impacted by this terrible tragedy."

MALVERN, PA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

HMP, a leader in healthcare events and education, today announced that its premier wound care journal, Ostomy Wound Management, has been renamed Wound Management & Prevention. The name change not only reflects the shift seen in the healthcare industry to a broader focus on all aspects of wound care, but it also matches the journal's already evolving content covering these expanded topic areas.

"As the field continues to evolve, we thought it was the appropriate time to select a name for the journal that better aligns with its content that is focused on both the management and prevention of wounds," said Jeremy Bowden, Senior Vice President and Publisher.

Founded in March of 1980 as Ostomy Management, the small journal dramatically expanded its content and readership within five years by embracing the overlapping disciplines of ostomy care, wound care, incontinence care, and related skin and nutritional issues. It quickly became the premier journal of its kind. Readers of both the print and digital formats include more than 25,000 health care professionals from multiple disciplines, including nurses at all levels of practice, physical therapists, dietitians, physicians and researchers.

Articles published in Wound Management & Prevention will continue to ascribe to policies outlined by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, which stipulates each manuscript has undergone a rigorous double-blind peer review. The journal will also feature sponsored columns provided by manufacturers to elucidate the science behind their products and to offer evidence of their appropriate and successful use; additional features include Pediatric Wound Care: Asking the Right Questions (case studies illustrating the latest neonatal and pediatric scenarios relevant to this clinical niche); My Scope of Practice (featuring a day-in-the-life of a peer-nominated clinician); Special Report (miscellaneous news of interest); and various opportunities for editorial insights and feedback. Material available exclusively online includes Industry Spotlight and several rotating columns addressing quality and safety, quick practice tips, and case studies.

"We are responsive to industry changes and proactive about ensuring our readers are prepared, clinically and professionally, with the knowledge and tools they need to care for their patients," said Barbara Zeiger, Editor, Wound Management & Prevention. "We believe the new name and new print and website designs will enhance the Wound Management & Prevention experience."

The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop and Primate of the Episcopal Church, has appointed Teri Lawver as Board Chair for Episcopal Relief & Development. Ms. Lawver replaces Neel Lane who served as chair from 2015 until the end of 2018.

Episcopal Relief & Development welcomes Lawver and also new board member Matt Silva. Lawver was previously on the board of the organization from 2008 to 2013 and has continued to serve on the Advancement Committee.

"I am thrilled to welcome Teri back to the Board of Directors as Board Chair," said Presiding Bishop Curry. "Teri and Episcopal Relief & Development know each other exceedingly well and I am confident that together with the rest of the board and staff, we will create lasting change."

Lawver was named Board Chair, effective January 1, 2019 as Lane completed his term on the board.

"Teri brings vast governance experience from the private sector to her new role as Board Chair," said Lane. "She will become the first woman to chair the board at a time when the organization's strategic priorities are directed more than ever to improving the lives of women throughout the world—including, most obviously, our work with Anglican partners to eliminate gender-based violence (GBV)."

Lawver is the Global Commercial Strategy Leader, Global Vice President, for the Immunology Therapeutic Area with Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson (J&J). She has more than 20 years of global healthcare and business leadership experience spanning four continents, three healthcare sectors, and dozens of disease areas.

She began her career as a Derivative Analyst with Bloomberg Financial Markets, LLP.

Active with community and philanthropic causes, Lawver serves on Board of Trustees for the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra and has served on the Board of Trustees for the Seminary of the Southwest. A New Jersey native, Lawver was named to the NJBiz "Best 50 Women in Business" list in 2016.

"I am honored to be asked to serve in this capacity and to rejoin this strong board for an organization that has such commitment to empowering others to live healthier, more fulfilling lives," said Lawver. "Episcopal Relief & Development's work is unique. I am humbled to be a part of creating long-term solutions in the lives of the most vulnerable."

Matt Silva also joined the board effective January 1st. He is the Director of Sales for Labatt Food Service in San Antonio Texas and manages the Labatt sales force responsible for $1.3 Billion in revenue per year in Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. Silva volunteered frequently at the Good Samaritan Center while growing up, where he was Director of the Good Sam basketball camp in high school. He served as an acolyte for St. Mark's Episcopal Church in downtown San Antonio, where he and his wife, Virginia, are now members.

"Teri and Matt's multifaceted professional experience and passion will make them tremendous assets to the Board of Directors," said Rob Radtke, President & CEO of Episcopal Relief & Development. "I look forward to working with them to expand our impact in our priority areas of women, children and climate."

For over 75 years, Episcopal Relief & Development has been working together with supporters and partners for lasting change around the world. Each year the organization facilitates healthier, more fulfilling lives for more than 3 million people struggling with hunger, poverty, disaster and disease.

MIAMI (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

Cosmetic Town, a Los Angeles-based online plastic surgery and information community, is providing patients that are looking to augment and enhance the look of their buttocks with the information they need to achieve their desired results. Cosmetic Town has just published a list of the "Best Cosmetic Surgeons for Butt Augmentation in Miami".

According to the senior editor of Cosmetic Town, "Butt augmentation has grown in popularity over the years thanks to the appearance of celebrities on the red carpet and easy access to information about the procedure on the Internet and reality television shows. Patients want to try and copy the look of their favorite celebrities that have an augmented backside. The procedure can be performed via a number of techniques including a butt lift, fat grafting, butt implants and a thigh lift as well as injecting fillers into the targeted area to gain volume in the buttocks."

The senior editor shared the fact that a variety of research methods were used to choose the doctors on the list. "When researching the doctors in Miami, our research staff used an intelligent algorithm that was focused on cosmetic surgery in order to compile the list. In addition, they looked at the skill level and overall patient experience with the doctors.

Finally, they examined the level of patient satisfaction with the surgeons. Education was also an important factor in choosing the doctors. Cosmetic Town looked at the number of articles written by the doctors on a regular basis to share with their peers and if the surgeons make educating patients about plastic surgery procedures an ongoing priority at their practice."
The senior editor pointed out that none of the doctors picked for the lists had any influence on the process. The senior editor stated that "the Cosmetic Town staff does not accept any sort of compensation from the doctors on the lists. Out list of Miami cosmetic doctors for butt augmentation was researched and created for the sole purpose of making it easier for patients to find board-certified doctors in Miami that provide results that are long-lasting as well as natural in appearance."

About Cosmetic Town
Cosmetic Town is an online cosmetic medicine publication that also features doctors who were endorsed and highly recommended by their peers. This reliable and streamlined database allows users to easily navigate the website and access the information they need with just a click of a button. Users can also stay informed and get the latest news on plastic surgery by reading the regularly updated news section.

NEWTOWN, PA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Christopher M. Cice, Investment Advisor at Allied Financial Consultants, LLP, recently obtained the Certified Investment Management Analyst certification. Fewer than two percent of financial services professionals hold CIMA certification, which is delivered by Investments & Wealth Institute (Institute) and is the only credential designed specifically for financial advisors and investment consultants. Christopher is responsible for investment analysis and portfolio management.

The CIMA certification identifies individuals who have met extensive experience and ethical requirements and successfully completed advanced investment management consulting coursework provided through one of three top-20 business schools in the United States: The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, or the Yale School of Management. CIMA professionals must pass a certification exam covering a wide range of in-depth investment topics. Additionally, those who earn the certification must agree to meet ongoing continuing education requirements, and adhere to the Institute's Code of Professional Responsibility.

In 2011, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recognized CIMA certification as the first financial services credential in the United States to earn accreditation under an international personnel certification standard. ANSI is a private nonprofit organization that provides third-party accreditation services and oversees a broad array of standards development processes in the United States. "The CIMA certification program represents high standards in each of the 'Four Es'—experience, education, examination, and ethics," said Sean R. Walters, CAE, the Institute's executive director and chief executive officer. "As a result, the certification consistently qualifies investment advisors, investment consultants and investment managers as advanced practitioners in their field."

The Investments & Wealth Institute is a professional association, advanced education provider, and standards body for financial advisors, investment consultants, and wealth managers who embrace excellence and ethics.

BOWLING GREEN, KY. (PRWEB) FEBRUARY 16, 2020


Encore’s JDH #4A is currently awaiting connection to a gas pipeline in order to produce gas and/or oil. The Company is entering into an agreement to develop a gas pipeline for the JDH #4A and JDH #5 that should deliver gas 2.1 miles west to an existing gas market and processing facility. The Company is currently mobilizing equipment to begin drilling the JDH #5 horizontal well location targeting the upper Berea Oil Sandstone formation.


“We are extremely excited about the production potential at the JDH #5 location due to the fact that the well is located off-set to reportedly the highest volume oil producers in Lawrence County and that we are working with the most proven engineering team across the entire Berea play”, said Steve Stengell, Encore’s President and CEO. “The road / location are built, crews / equipment procured and we have an approved well permit in hand”, added Stengell.


Encore has already built road, location(s) and drilled a 2000’ vertical section at its Fallsburg WFC #H1 location in northern Lawrence County, and plans to make the WFC #H1 the Company’s 4th or 5th horizontal well project in Lawrence County with the horizontal section to be drilled later this spring or summer. “The ultimate objective is to provide Encore and its partners diversification across multiple wells and lease projects”, said Joseph Hooper, Encore’s EVP and Director.


“The fact the SEC defined investors can deduct 100% of their investment against all forms of income (state and federal) further mitigates much of the risk associated with these projects”, added Hooper.


Tier I horizontal Berea oil wells in this area have reportedly averaged in the range of ~100 - 150 BOPD over the initial 90 days of production where the well development costs are significantly lower, as compared to other plays across the US. Berea oil production from Lawrence County, Kentucky reportedly represents nearly 25% of the states total annual oil production.


Oil and gas investments are subject to a high degree of risk, uncertainty, unpredictability, indefinite delays, loss of investment and are suitable only for SEC defined accredited investors who are sophisticated in making business and investment decisions. No assurances can be made as it relates to production, income, distributions, reserves, profitability, prices, timelines and/or any other estimates.


The SEC definition of an accredited investor is better explained on the SEC’s website:


https://www.investor.gov/additional-resources/news-alerts/alerts-bulletins/updated-investor-bulletin-accredited-investors


Qualified SEC defined accredited investors (SEC Regulation D, Rule 506c) can deduct 100% of their intangible and tangible drilling costs against all forms of income (state and federal) with years of potential income from production. These tax savings mitigate a good amount of risk associated with oil and gas drilling, completion and production operations.

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Disability Justice is now Pond Lehocky Stern Giordano Disability—offering the same exceptional service under a new name.

The aim of the new name is to bring the group in line with the larger Pond Lehocky family, emphasizing that the department shares the overall Firm's mission—serving clients at the highest professional level with exemplary litigation and trial techniques.

The change to Pond Lehocky Disability also highlights the Firm's shared core values of client-centered service, teamwork, diligence, excellence, continued education, growth with integrity, cutting-edge innovation and community engagement.

Pond Lehocky Partner Tom Giordano Jr. said it makes sense to bring the department back under the umbrella of the Pond Lehocky brand.

"Pond Lehocky has become a true, national presence in the legal community. Our Referral Team sends thousands of cases to lawyers in all 50 states. It is something we are all very proud of," he said.

However, he said that as Pond Lehocky's footprint grew, many of the Firm's referral partners, vendors and others did not realize the that it practiced Social Security and long-term disability.

The name change seeks to remedy that.

"We all agree that this is much less confusing to our mutual clients, attorney referrals, friends and the outside world," Giordano said.

Despite the name change, the Pond Lehocky Disability will still offer the same holistic approach to client advocacy it's known for nationwide. It remains dedicated to defending clients' rights daily, both in the courtroom and through political activism.

Pond Lehocky Disability opened its doors as Disability Justice in 2015, quickly becoming one of the leading advocacy groups for disabled Americans. Over the last four years, the department has assisted tens of thousands of Americans in all 50 states and Puerto Rico in applying for and obtaining disability benefits.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

LAUNCHER.SOLUTIONS (Launcher), a technology provider specializing in subprime automotive loan originations, announced its successful integration with LexisNexis Risk Solutions, an industry leader in technology, big data, and advanced analytics. The alliance gives subprime automotive lenders access from within Launcher's appTRAKER Loan Origination System to alternative data that could not only help increase lender efficiencies, but also enhance understanding of the risk and credit worthiness of their potential customers.

Launcher created appTRAKER Loan Origination System to cater to subprime lenders who demand more from their software, including the need for quicker decisioning and smoother integration with vendor data that could help lenders make more intelligent credit decisions. In the subprime/nearprime space, credit approvals are not always granted based on a credit score. It is often an arduous process for lenders to sort out the profitable deals from the rest. Launcher's integration with LexisNexis RiskViewTM offers lenders the ability to utilize non-tradeline data in an automated manner via Autodecisioning to improve credit risk analysis.

"We created appTRAKER Loan Origination System to help lenders build stronger portfolios through a faster, more reliable system with the ideal workflow for subprime...a major part of that workflow is risk assessment," said Nikh Nath, President of Launcher. "Working with LexisNexis Risk Solutions gives our clients access to additional data that can be used for Autodecisioning, risk based pricing, and in conjunction with scorecards resulting in a more streamlined decision-making process."

"Every business today is operating in the decision economy," said Solomon Semere, director, credit risk strategy, LexisNexis Risk Solutions. "When an auto lender can make quick, confident credit decisions, the business is going to grow profitably. This alliance between Launcher and LexisNexis Risk Solutions helps auto lenders thrive in the decision economy and come out the winners."

Lending to subprime consumers is risky for financial institutions, especially when consumers have very little recorded data on their credit file for analysis. Technology now allows lenders access to data that has not been previously available. By collaborating appTRAKER LOS with RiskView, Launcher is able to give its lenders improved credit risk management at the point of decisioning, where it is needed most.

About LAUNCHER.SOLUTIONS: LAUNCHER.SOLUTIONS is a technology products and services company built on the foundation of care, understanding, innovation, and speed. It specializes in the subprime/nearprime automotive lending industry. Its innovative products include appTRAKER LOS, myDEALER.CARE dealer relationship management system, and myACCOUNT.CARE customer self-service and communication solution.

NEEDHAM, MASS. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

The Object Management Group (OMG), https://www.omg.org/ an international, open membership, not-for-profit technology standards consortium, issued a Request for Proposal for a new standard called Interface Definition Language v4 (IDL4) to C# Language Mapping https://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc.cgi?mars/2018-12-2.

"Application-portability is essential for rapid information exchange, especially in the context of the Industrial Internet of Things," says RFP author Fernando Garcia-Aranda, senior software engineer at Real-Time Innovations, https://www.rti.com/, an OMG Board of Director member. "C# is one of today's most prominent general-purpose programming languages. This new specification will provide a standard mapping of IDL-defined data types to C# types, which will enable users to describe and expose information in a portable and interoperable manner, compatible with the .NET ecosystem."

Both members and non-members of OMG can participate in the process by submitting a Letter of Intent http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc.cgi?loi by March 20, 2019. In order to become a submitter, individually or as part of a submission team, companies must become members of OMG by the initial submission deadline of November 11, 2019.

Many network technologies use IDL to define the information models and describe the data-types that are exchanged. IDL provides a common description of the data types that is independent of the programming language used by the applications that send and receive the data. By using that method, the types can be defined just once (using IDL) and then be used from different programming languages such as C, C++, Java, C#, ADA, Python, JavaScript, etc. The use of the data type on a specific programming language "X" requires defining the corresponding IDL to "X" language mapping. The RFP will result on a standard mapping to C# that complements the existing C, C++, and Java mappings.

Popular OMG middleware technologies such as DDS and CORBA will immediately benefit, as will any other users of the IDL language.

About OMG
The Object Management Group (OMG) is an international, open membership, not-for-profit technology standards consortium with representation from government, industry and academia.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

PlayTheGroove, a dynamic new performance-based approach designed to bring the excitement of modern jazz and world music to the classroom, is seeking volunteers for a 4-week nationwide pilot study launching January 2019.

Any rhythm-based secondary/tertiary ensemble, with instrumentation from intermediate to advanced skill level, is welcome. Participants receive a library of free sheet music, the original recordings, and new methods that support any combination of melody instruments with a rhythm section. In return, teachers and students are requested to try out the material and give their honest feedback.

PTG innovatively blends informal music-making approaches with more formal, traditional classroom learning techniques, laid out in a four-week module that can enhance and accelerate the learning process.

PlayTheGroove is the creative brainchild of Los Angeles–based jazz bassist, producer, and educator Richard Frank. As a classroom volunteer, Frank saw the potential for a performance-based initiative that fully addresses the 4Cs of a 21st-century education—critical thinking, communication, creativity, and collaboration.

Five years later, PlayTheGroove is real—field tested, academically researched and educationally grounded through the Master of Music Education program at Cal State University Northridge, as well as the University of Southern California, and informed by the guidance of distinguished professionals including jazz star Patrice Rushen, classroom jazz music educator Chris Stevens, LAUSD school supervisor Tony White, and many others.

PlayTheGroove is designed to help young players engage more fully with their own creativity. The approach encourages students to holistically experience music-making, improvise, and sight-read while communicating and collaborating with their bandmates, all while opening up a world of fresh, exciting music.

Teachers will quickly see that they can enjoy teaching PlayTheGroove whether or not they are familiar with these styles of music. The PTG teaching modules are clearly laid out, with videos, in order to encourage student-led initiative and allow the teacher to take a turn as guide on the side instead of the sage on the stage.

The study has been specifically designed to respect privacy; no personal student data will be collected. Workload for teachers and students will average approximately 4 to 5 hours over a one-month period. Participation is free.

"We've conducted more than 60 clinics to make PlayTheGroove as perfect as we can," said Frank. "Now we at need the help of real-world students and teachers to help us learn what works and what still needs attention."

Frank added, "Please take just a moment to click the link below and help us test-launch PlayTheGroove. It's fun, it's simple, and it's a great source of fresh jazz ideas to kickstart an exciting new semester."

To apply and learn more, visit PlayTheGroove at http://www.playthegroove.com.

COLUMBIA, MD. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Despite this being the holiday season, the Credit Managers' Index (CMI) was not as generous as credit professionals had hoped, ending a solid 2018 on a sour note. Credit professionals reported a large drop off in the combined favorable factors, with all four components seeing a decline.

"On one level, this is disappointing. It would have been nice to see the index continue tracking upwards, but it is important to remember that any reading over 50 suggests growth, so [an overall December] reading of 54.2 is certainly respectable," said NACM Economist Chris Kuehl, Ph.D.

That is a decline of 1.6 points from November, moving the CMI to numbers seen in October. Sales took the biggest hit, a drop of 5.5 points. That leaves it outside the 60s for the first time since December 2017. New credit applications and amount of credit extended also stepped back at 57.5 and 61.9, respectively. Dollar collections, while it declined, still hovered near a reading of 60. Overall, favorables sank from 63.2 to 59.4 in December, also the first time since last December the score was below 60. "The slide in all these factors suggests there has been a slowdown, which is consistent with some of the other data that has been seen in the Purchasing Managers' Index, durable goods orders and capacity utilization," Kuehl said.

The future was a little bit brighter for the combined unfavorable factors—not all saw a dip in December. Rejections of credit applications remained the same at 51.4, while accounts placed for collection and dollar amount of customer deductions improved yet stayed in contraction territory (score below 50). Disputes and dollar amount beyond terms each took a dive into contraction territory at 49.6 and 49.3, respectively. "This drop is more worrisome, as this is often the first sign of impending credit issues," said Kuehl, referring to dollar amount beyond terms. Bankruptcy filings remained one of the more constant factors, improving to 55. The overall index of unfavorables remained above 50 for the second straight month after a slight dip below 50 in October.

The manufacturing sector followed a similar pattern as the overall CMI. "The sector is often seen as a kind of symbol for the overall success of the U.S. economy," Kuehl said. "The numbers look a bit weaker in December, which is a bit worrying for the coming year." The manufacturing index declined 1.6 points to a reading of 54, impacted by the large drop in the favorables. Manufacturing sales also fell below 60 for the first time since December 2017, and the favorable index was hurt by it with a decrease to 58.9. All but amount of credit extended fell below 60. The manufacturing unfavorables were a different story, increasing further into expansion albeit at a rate of 0.2 points to 50.7. Accounts placed for collection, dollar amount of customer deductions and filings for bankruptcy each improved this month. Credit application rejections, disputes and dollar amount beyond terms slipped slightly—the latter hitting a reading of 50 and staying in expansion territory for two months in a row for the first time since fall 2016.

The service sector showed comparable results to that of the overall index and manufacturing sector. Sales, along with the rest of the favorables, were down, dragging the favorable index to 59.9—the same level as December 2017. Rejections of credit applications returned to expansion territory after a dip in November. Accounts placed for collections and bankruptcies also improved, with the former still in the contraction zone but only slightly at 49.1. Disputes dropped modestly, and dollar amount of customer deductions also fell, yet both stayed above 50. The overall sector index saw a decline of 1.5 points to 54.5.

Compared to 2017, Kuehl said, "There are some early warnings starting to show up as the favorables are sagging for the first time in a year. At this point, the reason could be seasonal, but if the trend extends to next month, there will be more concerns about the coming year."

UPLAND, CALIF. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Gene Sasse the Founder and Director of The Inland Empire Museum of Art (IEMA) is starting 2019 with an innovative new exhibition. The solo exhibit entitled Discovering Receptive Abstract Patternism features the paintings of Rod Jones artist. This is an important exhibit and a first for the Southern California art museum because the show title was chosen from the artist's own interpretation of his painting style.

Rod Jones is a Southern California Artist. After spending a good part of his career as a Commercial Advertising Photographer, he shifted his energy to operating his own creative services and marketing company. Approximately 18 years ago he started to develop his painting style. Rod often states because he "committed to painting later in life, he knew he did not have the luxury of spending many years creating his own unique vision for his art." The style he embraced is one that initially evolved from painting in the Impressionist style. Today his art is considered by many to be especially authentic. When viewed, the body of his art has a common theme yet each piece clearly stands on its own. Collectors with a sensitive eye appreciate that his work is constantly evolving and that the style that he has created is open-ended and has no restrictions.

"I push my chosen art style with every painting I do. Some are more successful than others. But I'm not afraid to challenge either the viewer or myself. If I can use color and form in an eclectic way and still maintain some semblance of continuity, then I am accomplishing my goal."

His style has been intelligently named Receptive Abstract Patternism, a term coined by his daughter. She determined that the style revolves around the artist receiving conscious and subconscious signals and stimuli to create an image independent of common form, held together by the continuity and comfort of a pattern.

Jones paints an image in an unorthodox manner, while maintaining a common thread through the comfort of distinct patterns. Each original painting has interconnected elements that speak distinctly to each observer. Rod's paintings are interpreted individually by his audience – for example some spark a soothing and meditative reflection while others see the same painting as energetic and modern.

Rod explains, "While most people understand the word abstract... because it certainly is. Most of my work is non-representational and non-objective. So it's easy to conclude that my artwork is abstract. The word Patternism is pretty obvious...we often say that the paintings are held together by the continuity and comfort of pattern. As the work has progressed some of these patterns are quite complex. Others are simple. But if you view the vast number of paintings I have created, you will quickly see the style and many-faceted uses of patterns. Now is the part of the term I am particularly partial to, the word Receptive. You have to be pretty open in your thinking to be receptive, open to being creative. Plus you can't be overly objective. Of course, you can be receptive to outside influences, many representational artists are, and they interpret subject matter with their own unique styles. My Receptive style requires the stimulation to percolate up from my own non-objective thinking."

Gene Sasse states, " As the museum Director during the past five years, I have been host to many wonderful exhibits and have curated many of these shows. For me this exhibit was fresh and innovative, and I believe it will be very well received by our museum audience and patrons. And a great start to the 2019 art season."

Discovering Receptive Abstract Patternism exhibit will be on display from January 6- February 10, 2019.

The Opening Reception will be January 6, 2019 from 2 - 5 pm.

Art Talk will be on January 19, 2019, 6-8 pm

PITTSFORD, N.Y. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Founder, President, Entrepreneur and Director of Education for La Petite École, Kari Maaraba, known as Madame Kari by her students and parents, a former Pharmaceutical Representative from Montreal, Quebec and Journalism student of Sorbonne University, Paris, France was driven by a passion to strive for success at a young age, she formed La Petite École (LPE) after researching the upstate, NY International education market where she resides, she realized there was a need for introducing foreign language to kids in Rochester, after gauging interest across the various family, friends and community groups she trusts, well, she found her niche!

Research shows, kids introduced to diverse foreign languages at a young age tend to thrive more across broader educational horizons they experience as they progress through life.

Madame Kari took a chance, planted her seeds and opened up her first center, La Petite École (The little French School) in an inaugural first-year program that began September, 2014.

What differentiates this little French school is educational curriculum, prestige and sophistication; what's unique about it, is affordability, flexibility and advanced level of French education that kids from ages two through five receive. While programs like this may exist and can cost a fortune in top cities across the country, in Rochester it is offered at a fraction of the costs one may expect. Kids who otherwise were never exposed to a second language, graduate the program, and enter their local kindergarten speaking and understanding the fundamentals of a second language.

This is no ordinary pre-school this is one that teaches kids: Culture, Language-Arts, Linguistics, Language Skills, Crafts, Activities and general play in a safe and healthy environment – taught all in native Parisian French with a respect for care and fun emphasizing a disciplined approach.

"When I first had the idea for this program, I was confident it would thrive across the Rochester community, because it is a great community filled with diversity and culture. I thought, in this day and age pre-school should not be day-care. It should provide kids the opportunity to build confidence, self-esteem and help them gain an appetite for learning more. Kids need to be introduced to different styles, dialect and culture, I found a market for this type of pre-school and I took a chance." States Madame Kari

After opening its inaugural class in September 2014 with six students, La Petite École has now grown to full capacity for its 2018/2019 morning program and has added more space that houses a playful GYM area. La Petite École is a private pre-school and operates under the same school schedule as Pittsford School District.
"Kari has vowed a genuine and unconditional love to my children in addition to being an exceptional educator. It was a revelation for us as parents and furthermore her qualities offered us a peace without price." France Gauthier, Parent.

About La Petite Ecole, Inc.
La Petite École offers a great variety of cultural, artistic and sporting activities as personal development is considered to be as important as academic excellence. We believe in the total development of the child on all levels, physical, social, emotional and intellectual. More importantly, we want children to love learning.

The objective of the French educational system is to enable students to:

Express themselves in everyday situations (introducing themselves, greeting people, talking about their hobbies, expressing their feelings and opinions, asking and giving information, finding their way, talking about past events or projects).

Understand words and sentences in simple texts, understand simple instructions, understand and participate in short conversations on topics of everyday life.

From experience, we have found that children starting their language learning at age 2, 3, 4 or 5 are more successful than children starting at 8 or 9. At this young age they are very receptive to new sounds, which become familiar very quickly. They are uninhibited and quickly become confident and at ease with the foreign language. For these reasons, this program contains lots of stories, songs and games. Therefore, children learn the language just like young French children. These are activities they will enjoy and repeat over and over, absorbing language as they "play".

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Mediaplanet today announces the launch of this December's edition of "Stroke Awareness." This campaign will advocate for increased awareness of the signs, risk factors, and causes of stroke to decrease the likelihood of death or physical and cognitive impairments as a result of stroke, as well educating healthcare providers on the tools they need to best handle and improve care.

Stroke is the fifth-leading cause of death in the U.S. While many people have an idea of what a stroke is, many do not know the causes or symptoms to look out for and to accurately and effectively seek treatment. Not only does this event have debilitating effects on a person's quality of life, but an individual is 30 percent more likely to suffer a second stroke after their first in their lifetime. However, there are steps that a person can take to lower their risk and many resources available for rehabilitation, prevention, and treatment.

The print component of "Stroke Awareness" is distributed within today's edition of USA Today in New York, Boston, Los Angeles, DC/Baltimore, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Detroit, and the Carolinas with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.futureofpersonalhealth.com/topic/stroke-awareness

Former NFL star, stroke survivor, and activist Tedy Bruschi graces the cover of the print publication. Through an exclusive interview on the interior, Tedy reveals what his experience was like suffering from stroke and how he has taken his experience to raise awareness and provide support. "With that comes a mental struggle — not only being able to deal with it yourself, but also being able to speak about it and communicate about it, and say proudly, 'Yes, I'm a stroke survivor," says Bruschi. Since then, he has fought tirelessly to raise awareness of stroke. His contributions include establishing Tedy's Team, in partnership with the American Heart Association, to raise funding and provide survivors with a support system. "It's good to be with people that know what you're going through — that's what Tedy's Team is all about," he says. "It's a support system and a family."

Long gone are the days when a patient is unable to access premier healthcare do to geographical location or a hospital's lack of expertise. When it comes to stroke treatment, having access to the right doctors and technology in a timely manner is imperative. Because of this, telemedicine is sweeping the nation. This technology allows for patients to access expert treatment providers through video and audio conferencing. SOC Telemed (SOC), the largest national provider of telemedicine, discusses the importance of this emerging technology and the promising advances it brings.

This campaign was made possible with the support of the Tedy Bruschi, Michael Johnson, American Stroke Association, American Heart Association, Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, Brain Aneurysm Foundation, SOC Telemed, BioTel Heart, Ekso Bionics, American Association of Neuroscience Nurses, and American Academy of Health Care Administrators.

COLUMBIA, MD. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Despite this being the holiday season, the Credit Managers' Index (CMI) was not as generous as credit professionals had hoped, ending a solid 2018 on a sour note. Credit professionals reported a large drop off in the combined favorable factors, with all four components seeing a decline.

"On one level, this is disappointing. It would have been nice to see the index continue tracking upwards, but it is important to remember that any reading over 50 suggests growth, so [an overall December] reading of 54.2 is certainly respectable," said NACM Economist Chris Kuehl, Ph.D.

That is a decline of 1.6 points from November, moving the CMI to numbers seen in October. Sales took the biggest hit, a drop of 5.5 points. That leaves it outside the 60s for the first time since December 2017. New credit applications and amount of credit extended also stepped back at 57.5 and 61.9, respectively. Dollar collections, while it declined, still hovered near a reading of 60. Overall, favorables sank from 63.2 to 59.4 in December, also the first time since last December the score was below 60. "The slide in all these factors suggests there has been a slowdown, which is consistent with some of the other data that has been seen in the Purchasing Managers' Index, durable goods orders and capacity utilization," Kuehl said.

The future was a little bit brighter for the combined unfavorable factors—not all saw a dip in December. Rejections of credit applications remained the same at 51.4, while accounts placed for collection and dollar amount of customer deductions improved yet stayed in contraction territory (score below 50). Disputes and dollar amount beyond terms each took a dive into contraction territory at 49.6 and 49.3, respectively. "This drop is more worrisome, as this is often the first sign of impending credit issues," said Kuehl, referring to dollar amount beyond terms. Bankruptcy filings remained one of the more constant factors, improving to 55. The overall index of unfavorables remained above 50 for the second straight month after a slight dip below 50 in October.

The manufacturing sector followed a similar pattern as the overall CMI. "The sector is often seen as a kind of symbol for the overall success of the U.S. economy," Kuehl said. "The numbers look a bit weaker in December, which is a bit worrying for the coming year." The manufacturing index declined 1.6 points to a reading of 54, impacted by the large drop in the favorables. Manufacturing sales also fell below 60 for the first time since December 2017, and the favorable index was hurt by it with a decrease to 58.9. All but amount of credit extended fell below 60. The manufacturing unfavorables were a different story, increasing further into expansion albeit at a rate of 0.2 points to 50.7. Accounts placed for collection, dollar amount of customer deductions and filings for bankruptcy each improved this month. Credit application rejections, disputes and dollar amount beyond terms slipped slightly—the latter hitting a reading of 50 and staying in expansion territory for two months in a row for the first time since fall 2016.

The service sector showed comparable results to that of the overall index and manufacturing sector. Sales, along with the rest of the favorables, were down, dragging the favorable index to 59.9—the same level as December 2017. Rejections of credit applications returned to expansion territory after a dip in November. Accounts placed for collections and bankruptcies also improved, with the former still in the contraction zone but only slightly at 49.1. Disputes dropped modestly, and dollar amount of customer deductions also fell, yet both stayed above 50. The overall sector index saw a decline of 1.5 points to 54.5.

Compared to 2017, Kuehl said, "There are some early warnings starting to show up as the favorables are sagging for the first time in a year. At this point, the reason could be seasonal, but if the trend extends to next month, there will be more concerns about the coming year."

For a complete breakdown of the manufacturing and service sector data and graphics, view the December 2018 report at http://web.nacm.org/CMI/PDF/CMIcurrent.pdf. CMI archives may also be viewed on NACM's website at http://www.nacm.org/cmi/cmi-archive.

WEST PALM BEACH, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Laurence Fishburne, known for being an award winning actor, director and philanthropist, is also the host of the Information Matrix series. An upcoming episode for the show focuses on military families, and will engage viewers and guide them through a series of inspiring stories about military families, and the support systems they often need.

Military families sacrifice not just their time but their lives, often moving from base to base in service of our country. The families of service members make the sacrifices necessary to stay with them, while at other times their loved ones are deployed far away and miss important parts of their families' lives. Families need to be able to find housing, food and service providers at every new location, oftentimes giving up familiar surroundings. Even when there isn't a prevalent conflict overseas, this causes a great deal of stress and loneliness for all the families involved. Children often have to learn to live with one of their parents while the other is absent, and parents may feel overwhelmed when trying to deal with each new environment.

The way that military families face and overcome their struggles is awe-inspiring, and the organizations that support them strengthen the foundation of America. In this segment the program will feature stories from families, as well as individuals who are lending their support. This segment of the Information Matrix will be inspiring and educational, giving a window into the world of military families.

SOUTH ORANGE, NEW JERSEY (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Physicians' offices usually have lean staffs so changes such as resignations, vacations and serious illness – as well as difficulty filling empty positions with qualified staff – has a serious effect on accounts receivable and therefore the revenue cycle. Staff turnover is rampant and increasing. Tranquilmoney co-founder, Dr. Karun Philip suggests how physicians can manage their practice uninterrupted by staff changes.

Staff Turnover on the Rise

The healthcare job market has never been more supply-driven. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the healthcare unemployment rate hit 2.5% in April 2017 – the lowest level in more than 10 years. The result is a restless workforce that can go anywhere it pleases at any time. Healthcare organizations have tried many initiatives to keep employees in place, all with little or no impact on turnover. (1)

In a northeastern Ohio study of 762 staff in 77 community family practices, over a 2-year period, practices averaged a 53% staff turnover rate. Longevity varied by position, with a mean duration of only 3.4 years for business employees. The study concluded that the potentially disruptive effect of personnel turnover on practice functioning, finances, and longitudinal relationships with patients deserved further study.(2)

Revenue Cycle Challenges Lead to Physicians' Selling Practices

Healthcare revenue cycle challenges put more pressure on providers in private practices. Unlike providers employed by hospitals or health systems, physicians in small practices may take on multiple hats. With limited staff and capital resources, these providers may have to handle many things from patient access to medical practice management.

As a result, small practice owners are increasingly selling practices to larger healthcare organizations to shoulder the financial and clinical burdens. For the first time in 2016, more physicians were employed than owned their practices. Approximately 47 percent of patient care providers had a full or part ownership stake that year versus 53.2 percent in 2012.(3)

For those who would like to remain independent, small medical practice leaders should address the following healthcare revenue cycle management pain points:

1)    Many small and independent practices still use manual healthcare revenue cycle processes. A recent survey uncovered that 95 percent of practices with less than five physicians identified their facilities as "not tech savvy."
2)    Consider revenue cycle management outsourcing. In light of falling revenues, 59 percent of medical providers and 86 percent of hospitals said that their organizations planned to eliminate medical billing processes that are resource-intensive, error-prone, manual, and back-end by the third quarter of 2017.
3)    Approximately 90 percent of small, independent physician practices also stated they are not prepared financially or technically for the challenges of transitioning to value-based reimbursement arrangements.(4)

Dr. Karun Philip, Co-Founder and President of Tranquilmoney explains, "Most private physician offices operate with lean staff, especially in back office billing and insurance management. If they are handling billing on their own, each unexpected shift in personnel threatens the billing cycle and therefore imperils office revenue. Physicians need an uninterrupted back office process that will continue regardless of personnel changes."

Dr. Philip continues, "To remain in private practice, modern medical practice management requires a high degree of accuracy, especially in billing and financial management. Often, physicians can manage their practice more simply by engaging a cloud-based healthcare financial management service."

Tranquilmoney handles the flow of physician offices without the added weight of personnel issues on the doctor's back. Tranquilmoney offers more than just software to aid a physician's back office in insurance claims; they reinforce the flow of processes to keep the practice running uninterrupted by personnel changes. With reliable technology managing processes, unexpected changes in staff would not affect revenue.(5)

About Tranquilmoney

The pattern of physicians selling their practices to large hospitals is one that is avoidable. Tranquilmoney has the tools in place to provide physician practices with financial management services, such as physician receivables management, pharmacy receivables management, healthcare insurance forms processing, and data capture services. In short, doctors can focus on patient care knowing that their practices are in order. The company is based in South Orange, New Jersey with back office facilities in Chennai, India.

MOUNT ARLINGTON, NJ AND NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

The leadership of Exigent Technologies, a full-service IT consulting firm that delivers high-performance technology to small to mid-sized businesses in a wide range of industries, has launched a new business to address the complex need for risk management and cybersecurity in businesses facing strict regulatory compliance controls. Starting in 2019, consulting firm Partners in Regulatory Compliance (PIRC) will offer clients consultative risk management services and advise businesses on sophisticated technology solutions to ensure regulatory compliance, integrated with the best in cybersecurity defense platforms.

"For more than 20 years, as the trusted technology services firm in the New York tristate area, we've worked alongside our clients to protect their human and business assets. But, as both digital attacks and regulatory demands grow exponentially, we've seen the need for a specialized consultative business that focuses on innovative, sophisticated security and regulatory compliance protection for our region, particularly for businesses in high-risk verticals such as law, finance, nonprofits, healthcare and education," explained Daniel Haurey, President of Exigent Technologies and a founding member of PIRC.

In addition to offering Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) as-a-service, enabling full leadership at a fraction of the cost of an in-house resource, PIRC will focus on several key elements of regulatory compliance needed to address compliance controls, as well as supporting the professional and ethical commitment to protect the sensitive data businesses and nonprofits work with and store on behalf of their customers and stakeholders. Services include:

Internal and external penetration testing

Web application penetration testing

Policy development and management

Risk assessments

Cybersecurity assessments

Employee education and cybersecurity awareness training

Beyond its technical expertise, the PIRC team is well-versed in key regulatory compliance laws, including:

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

DFS 23 NYCRR 500

The European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA)/Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS)

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)

The PIRC certified cybersecurity consulting team can provide exceptional levels of expertise regardless of a company's current security stance. Plus, the team can work independently or side-by-side with a business' existing IT department to enhance risk mitigation efforts.

While PIRC will stand alone as a consultative compliance and cybersecurity services business, it's team will collaborate with Exigent's existing staff to offer fully integrated technology solutions to customers, accessing Exigent's knowledge base when and where needed, and vice versa.

"Our job is to be one step ahead of what our customers need, guiding them toward the right solutions for their business," explains Haurey.

ST. PETERSBURG, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

In October, the U.S. District Court in the Western Division of Arkansas ruled that truck drivers should receive at least minimum wage for their work time. While drivers who are paid by the mile may continue to be paid in that fashion, their overall pay, according to the ruling, must meet the federal requirement for minimum wage.1 "Truck drivers," says John Kearney, CEO, Advanced Training Systems LLC, "have historically had to deal with delays beyond their control that detract from their productive over-the-road hours." Kearney, whose company is a leading designer and manufacturer of virtual simulators and driver training on them, adds, "If we push to attract drivers who will choose this as a profession, total compensation which depends on miles driven is the overall key to attracting and keeping drivers."

And future drivers, Kearney notes, are urgently needed. According to the American Trucking Association (ATA), about 51,000 more drivers are needed than are available to meet demand from direct-to-consumer retailers like Amazon and Walmart. The driver shortage is already leading to delayed deliveries and higher prices, and the ATA predicts that the driver shortage will worsen in the coming years.2

A complicating factor in establishing truckers' salaries is that most truck drivers are paid not by the hour but by the mile. The average driver is expected to travel between 2,000 and 3,000 miles per week; according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, a majority of trucking companies pay between $0.28 and $0.40 per mile3 at 2016 rates. At the low end, on a 70-hour week, this would net out to $8.00 per hour. At the high end, it would yield $17 per hour—both above the federal minimum wage of $7.50 per hour. During the last two years average annual compensation has risen dramatically as a result of the shortage of drivers and the average annual compensation can often reach the level of $45,000 to over $50,000 according to Kearney.

Compensation problems arise when drivers are forced to spend excessive amounts of time sitting out bad weather or in detention, i.e. waiting at a dock for a shipper to finish loading and release the shipment. This waiting time, for which not all drivers are paid, counts against the maximum 10 hours per day that, by federal safety regulations, drivers are allowed to be on duty whether moving or not.4

Some industry observers see a partial solution in the recent mandate that truckers use an electronic logging device (EDT) to track their total hours of service, including detention time, rather than the paper logbooks that were heretofore employed.5 The existence of this electronic record, Kearney notes, has reduced a tendency on the part of shippers to understate the amount of detention time they require of their carriers.

"Truck driving is—and should be—a solid, well-paid occupation," says Kearney. "Long-haul truckers are essential to commerce in this country and help support the nation's economic well-being. Better control of detention and greater awareness of attracting people to this profession—and retaining them—should quickly make the issue of minimum-wage regulations irrelevant. As to payment methods, the best course is to pay drivers for miles traveled and also for waiting time."

About Advanced Training Systems LLC:
Advanced Training Systems (ATS) is a high-tech simulator technology and engineering firm that has revolutionized the design and manufacture of advanced training systems to improve training and create safer drivers. ATS, the holder of multiple patents in high-tech training simulation, has as its mission to provide this cutting-edge adaptive training to all involved in the transportation industry at an affordable cost, resulting in safer drivers/operators.

ORLANDO, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Status Transportation Corp., a leading ground freight and cargo services company for Owner Operators, is continuing to focus on growth and the continued support for its Owner Operators in anticipation for a busy New Year 2019.

Status Transportation has been a pacesetting company since its creation in 2009. Since then, the company has continuously evolved by building on a foundation of strong values and dedication to becoming leaders in the commercial transportation arena.

In addition, Status Transportation has made its Owner Operators the central focus of the entire operation. And that is just how this mighty Central Florida company has become a change agent for the reinvention of the traditional independent-owner business model in the trucking industry.

The mid-term government elections caused a bit of a slowdown in the industry. However, once these were over, the commercial transportation industry quickly re-engaged and there are no impending road blocks in the foreseeable future. But while the industry is back to business-as-usual, Status Transportation continues to look at 2019 for the opportunities it could bring.

An expected continuous decrease in oil prices will have a direct—and positive—effect on Owner Operators, allowing them to see an increase in profitability due to lower diesel prices.

"We welcome lower diesel prices, which don't just benefit our Owner Operators, but the company's profitability as a whole," said John L. Statkus of Status Transportation. "Owner Operators are the lifeline of our company."

Another positive effect in Status Transportation was the adoption of electronic logging, which was adopted by its Owner Operators by the December 2017 implementation deadline. Electronic Logging Devices—ELDs as known in the trucking industry—are required by commercial drivers as a way to keep a Record of Duty Status (RODS).

Status Transportation remains at the forefront of regulatory implementation and the company has experimented with various ELDs to find the right fit for the Owner Operators.

With this in mind, Status Transportation's goal is to continue to provide the best and easiest to use services for this mandatory logging device—continuing to analyze industry trends and new technologies throughout 2019.

Other items in focus for 2019 include purchasing new trailers for Owner Operators as part of a Lease Purchase Trailer Program designed to allow CDL drivers to a clear path to their personal business growth. After all, the autonomy that Owner Operators enjoy is a major benefit of working with Status Transportation and this program makes for a win-win opportunity for both the company and the drivers.

It should be noted that in 2018 Status Transportation rented additional commercial space in Atlanta, Georgia, allowing for its expansion and the continued support of its Owner Operators. This last move is helping make this national hub better suited to allow the drivers to have service, inspections and enjoy the lounge during their long hauls.

Status Transportation is about to celebrate its first decade and 2019 should bring new reasons to celebrate as the company continues to thrive and lead the commercial trucking industry with its innovative strategies and services.

About Status Transportation

Status Transportation Corp. is a Florida-based trucking company that provides support for Owner Operator truck drivers, managing all aspects of freight dispatch and operations management. The company works to generate business for Owner Operators, ensuring a constant stream of business and revenue opportunities. Status Transportation has been operating since 2009 with offices in Orlando, FL, and Atlanta, GA.

WOBURN, MASS. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

In July of 2018, Infrasense mobilized a two-man team to perform a ground coupled GPR survey of the road surface on a stone arch bridge in Orange, CT. With the help of a traffic control unit and a local police officer, the condition survey was carried out during overnight hours with minimal disruption to traffic. The survey implemented a ground coupled 900-MHz antenna and SIR-4000 control unit manufactured by GSSI, Inc. of Nashua, NH. The antenna was maneuvered across the roadway surface of the bridge in a grid pattern and the data was taken back to the office for evaluation.    

The results included tabular results of the asphalt cover thickness, rebar depth, and bottom of concrete depth by lane. Eight cores were extracted by a coring team to compare chloride content with the GPR results, which were found to correlate reasonably well. A color-coded plan view condition plot of the bridge with the concrete deterioration results found by GPR and coring was provided in the final report.

About Infrasense, Inc.
Since 1987, Infrasense, Inc. has applied advanced technologies to address the most difficult challenges in subsurface scanning.

MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

PORTER RANCH, CALIF. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

With opening a few months away, The Vineyards already is generating anticipation as Southern California's newest upscale and pedestrian-friendly shopping and entertainment center. What's more, The Vineyards will also feature some of the region's latest and most sustainable operating systems and eco-friendly fixtures.

Rooftop solar panels will offset tenant electrical loads, power LED lights in common areas and send excess power back into the grid. Giant underground tanks have begun to capture and clean stormwater that will irrigate the carefully designed landscape, which happens to include rows of actual wine grapes. Mobile app-connected electric vehicle charging stations will be strategically placed throughout the parking lots, including two installed by Whole Foods Market, which will open a new flagship location in the spring of 2019. And interactive kiosks will help visitors to The Vineyards learn and appreciate the various ways that sustainability has driven the project's design.

Shapell Liberty Investment Properties, The Vineyards developer, has carefully designed and implemented a range of features and construction methods to ensure a lower ecological footprint and to create a thriving community hub that will become the focal point for the surrounding north Los Angeles neighborhood. To celebrate and promote the sustainable features of the project, Shapell Liberty will seek LEED certification, a rare feat for developments of this scale – particularly shopping centers. The development will also seek SITES certification for its extensive landscape design, a badge of sustainable design comparable to LEED requirements for buildings.

"The sustainability concepts we and our tenants are bringing to The Vineyards are consistent with our and the community's values. Our primary goal is to create a dynamic open-air experience; doing so while integrating the best and latest technologies and resources for a sustainable operation is the right thing to do," said John Love, Vice President for Shapell Properties Inc. "Whole Foods and Kaiser Permanente were the first two major tenants to share in the vision of promoting sustainability, and more are jumping on board."

Initially, there will be 15 charging stations available on a first-come basis when The Vineyards opens, with plans for up to 85 total electric vehicle (EV) charging stations as demand for those spaces increases. Shapell has selected ChargePoint to supply Level 2 charging stations at The Vineyards main shopping center.

A series of large underground cisterns already installed at The Vineyards will capture and filter rainwater runoff at the project to re-use for irrigation purposes.

"We've already had six feet of water in those cisterns from the recent rains, so we know they work," Love said. "The reward will come when we put that storage capacity to good use to reduce what we would otherwise need for irrigation."

The Vineyards is a mixed-use development at the intersection of Rinaldi Street and Porter Ranch Drive, featuring a pedestrian-friendly design to provide a world-class gathering and entertainment location. With complementary luxury apartments, hotel and office space, The Vineyards will be the premier open-air, mixed-use lifestyle development in the north San Fernando Valley. Design elements of the shopping center include a "main street" and central green area that will host community events, and a 4,000-square-foot community meeting room.

The project includes a recently completed three-story Kaiser-Permanente medical office building scheduled to open in early 2019, a 100-room Hampton Inn & Suites hotel targeting to break ground in 2019, and a 266-unit luxury apartment community that is under construction and slated to open in 2020. Major tenants include Whole Foods Market, AMC movie theaters, Ulta Beauty and Nordstrom Rack.

Lounge Lizard is a Long Island SEO Company that is globally recognized as a top website design company within the web design and development industry. Lounge Lizard's brandtenders are creative, tech-savvy, and passionate in developing innovative strategies that drive conversion for both startup and established clients of all industries, making them the "best of breed since 1998."

When Google Web Search first launched 21 years ago the engine was a bit limited using primarily text data and backlinks for search ranking along with only focusing on matching search terms to available data. Along with modifying and improving how they crawl websites and rank content, Google has also used the massive amount of data they have to better understand how phrases, search history, and other search aspects relate to user priorities and needs. The result is an optimized search ranking algorithm to provide a better user experience which is based on understanding the search intent so that the results provide users with the data they really want.

Google has taken the time, aided by an enormous amount of user data, to better understand the priorities of both specific and general users based on all available information at the time. There are different intentions when people search such as learning something, finding a place to go, finding something to do, or looking for something to buy. It has become critical to follow Google's lead and look at Search Intent and not just keywords when considering Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Today the Internet Marketing Company, Lounge Lizard, explains how focusing on Search Intent will lead to Higher Rankings.

Understand Mirco-Moments - Google has crafted "micro-moments" which are search intent profiles based on the reasons why people turn to a device such as a desktop or smartphone for something. These intent-driven moments are often shaped by preferences but still boil down to basic ideas. Google's perspective is that when users need something, they can pull out a pocket computer (smartphone) and find exactly what they want almost instantly. The idea of micro-moments is to segment those various needs with the expectation that brands will understand and meet users' needs in that moment. The four moments are: "I want to buy", "I want to know", "I want to go", and "I want to do". Each moment often uses a distinctive style of search input such as, "what happened in Turkey today?" versus "how do I bake a cake?" The different linguistic triggers are considered in the algorithm. Information searches will continue to have the most volume which provides ample opportunities for nearly all businesses.

Keywords are still important - Keywords are still going to drive SEO but it is important to think about keywords differently in relation to intent and the content being created. For example, "Best Taco Shop" would be a nice keyword string for a local taco shop, but what kind of content should relate to that? An article that lists the 10 Best Taco Shops would be an excellent choice because Google will think of the intent of the person searching for the best taco shop. If a person enters this search then Google is going to provide a map and snippets of the Google Business listings for taco shops near the user, however beyond that the results will include qualitative information for the user to consider.

Consider how questions are phrased - When looking at user search intent, a business needs to consider what they have to offer and then how questions related to that might be phrased by users. This concept will help explore keyword usage for a particular micro-moment which can lead to more marketing opportunities as well as tailoring content for a better response.

Customer journeys should be re-evaluated – The concept of a customer journey is often thought of as a straight-line process, but over the past year or two it has become apparent that they truly are not. Now more than ever customers are dropping into the journey at different points and bouncing around rather than going from A to B to C. Due to our ability to access the internet easily at virtually any time, it makes sense that people are going to interact with search at various times with varying levels of intent. Journeys need to consider the person lying in bed shopping at midnight just as much as the person sitting at work shopping on their lunch.

Include responses to intent - Marketers should take the time to expand concepts beyond just keywords and also include responses to intent. How will users type or speak searches? What do searchers really want? Once that is considered then content can be created in response to these queries that will be search-friendly and thus will rank well. This involves being flexible and going with the flow of the search to create content that is properly titled, uses the correct keywords, and provides the value people are looking for. Be alert to ambiguous search words as they can end up with divided user intent.

MOUNT ARLINGTON, N.J. AND NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Starting in 2019, Partners in Regulatory Compliance (PIRC) will offer consultative risk management services and advise businesses on sophisticated technology solutions to ensure regulatory compliance, integrated with the best in cybersecurity defense platforms.

Built by the leadership team at Exigent Technologies, which has provided full-service IT consulting in the New York tristate area for more than 20 years, PIRC provides an innovative answer to the growing, complex need for cybersecurity in businesses facing strict regulatory compliance controls. Whether a business needs the full leadership of a virtual Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) or help with a specific regulatory compliance matter, PIRC's team of certified cybersecurity experts ensure a compliant, secure digital environment.

"As both digital attacks and regulatory demands grow exponentially, we've launched this highly specific practice to consult on innovative, sophisticated security and regulatory compliance protection for our clients, particularly those in high-risk verticals such as law, finance, healthcare, nonprofits and education," explained Daniel Haurey, President of Exigent Technologies and a founding member of PIRC.

The need for companies in certain industries to guard against escalating digital attacks demands more specialized focus and expertise to deliver meaningful risk mitigation, he added. "For something this critical, you want a specialist. Companies entrusted with volumes of sensitive consumer data are facing exceedingly complex compliance controls, in addition to having a professional, ethical commitment to protect the sensitive data they work with and store on behalf of their customers. PIRC's clear mission is to meet the needs of those clients."

The PIRC team of certified cybersecurity consultants can provide exceptional levels of expertise regardless of a company's current security stance. Plus, the team can work independently or side-by-side with a business' existing IT department to enhance risk mitigation efforts.

In either role, PIRC offers a full range of solutions:

Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) as-a-service enables full compliance and security leadership at a fraction of the cost of an in-house resource

Internal and external penetration

Web application penetration testing

Policy development and management

Risk assessments

Cybersecurity assessments

Cybersecurity education and awareness training in the NY area

Beyond its technical expertise, the PIRC team is well-versed in key regulatory compliance laws, including:

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

DFARS

DFS 23 NYCRR 500

The European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA)/Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS)

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)

While PIRC will stand alone as a compliance and cybersecurity business, the PIRC team will collaborate with Exigent's technology specialists to offer fully integrated technology solutions to customers, accessing Exigent's knowledge base when and where needed, and vice versa.

"It's our responsibility to guide customers through today's incredibly complex maze of cybersecurity and regulatory compliance," explains Haurey. "With PIRC, we're bringing the best team to bear on exploring, understanding and implementing cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions built specifically for regulatory compliance demands in order to deliver exactly the protection our clients need."

Businesses are building and deploying a wide variety of cloud computing platforms within AWS – such as SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS – and are also being asked for annual SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 reporting. Here's what service organizations need to know now about becoming SOC 2 compliant when using Amazon AWS' services.

1. Start with a SOC 2 Scoping & Readiness Assessment: Learning about SOC 2 – all the technical merits and other important considerations – begins by performing a comprehensive SOC 2 scoping & readiness assessment.

The earlier this is known, the greater the chances for auditing success, efficiency, and removal of scope creep issues. In all reality, this is a relatively straightforward process, something NDNB performs with clients every day.

3. Determine the Applicable Trust Services Criteria (TSP): Which of the TSP are going to be included in the scope of a SOC 2 audit and why? Do you have client commitments for certain TSP's? What is the basis for choosing the relevant TSP's? Important questions you need to get answers to, and NDNB can assist.

4. Identify Amazon AWS Tools and Solutions to be Used: Amazon has numerous security, identity, compliance, and management tools and solution that greatly assist in the SOC 2 auditing process. Get to know them, and they'll help ensure compliance with numerous SOC 2 testing criteria.

5. Perform Essential Remediation: Correcting control gaps and deficiencies is a common practice during the SOC 2 auditing lifecycle, no question about it.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Inspired by one of our favorite television shows, Allergy Myth Busters looks at a number of popularly held beliefs about allergy. But are these myths just urban legends or are they true?

MYTH: Allergy Shots Don't Work.

THE SCIENCE: Immunotherapy, commonly called allergy shots, was first introduced in 1911. Immunotherapy is a unique way of treating allergies and asthma. Medications treat the symptoms of allergies. Immunotherapy, however, changes the way a person's immune system is reacting to the environment. In allergic people, the immune system is reacting to common things in the environment such as pollens or pet dander. This leads to classic symptoms of hay fever and, in some, asthma. Allergen skin testing identifies a person's allergic triggers. A personalized vaccine is then formulated using all natural protein extracts. This extract is then administered to teach the immune system to tolerate exposure to allergens in the environment. And while some claim that immunotherapy is not helpful, a strong body of scientific evidence demonstrates that immunotherapy, when done correctly, leads to:

60-70% reduction in allergy symptoms with a 70% fall in need for medications

Improved asthma control while reducing need for medications

Reduction of an allergic child's risk of developing asthma by up to 60%

Reduced risk of developing new allergies

Improved quality of life

Long lasting symptom improvement in 85% of patients that persists after the treatment is stopped

Immunotherapy is generally safe and well tolerated, but like all medical treatment has some risk. Since immunotherapy uses natural extracts of the very things to which a person is allergic, it can cause allergic reactions. Most such reactions are localized but they can be generalized, called anaphylaxis. Again, most of these generalized reactions are mild but in some cases they can be severe and even life threatening. It is therefore very important that immunotherapy be given under the supervision of a Board Certified Allergist.

Immunotherapy can be given by several methods.

Injections: Known as Subcutaneous Immunotherapy or SCIT. This can be administered through a Classic or Cluster protocol in a physician's office.

Drops: Known as Sublingual Immunotherapy or SLIT. This can be administered at home.

Classic SCIT: In Classic SCIT, patients receive allergy injections in two phases: Build-up and Maintenance.

Build up Phase: Patients initially receive very low doses of allergens by subcutaneous (i.e. into the tissue just under the skin) injection. Patients receive shots once or twice a week. With each shot, the dose is slowly increased to build immune system tolerance. After each shot, the person is monitored for 30 minutes for any reaction. For most patients, the build-up phase is 28 doses.

Maintenance Phase: Once the top, or maintenance, dose is reached, shots are spaced out to every 2-4 weeks. During this time the dose of allergen remains constant. Typically, a person will be on Classic SCIT for 3-5 years.

Cluster Build up – Cluster SCIT is very similar to Classic SCIT except the build-up phase is much quicker. In Cluster, the build-up period is condensed into 9 sessions held once or, ideally, twice a week. At each session, the patient will receive 2-3 doses of immunotherapy separated by 30 minutes waiting periods. This can allow a patient to reach maintenance in as few as 4 weeks. The maintenance phase is the same as in Classic IT.

Advantages:

1. Can reach maintenance is as few as 4 weeks
2. May see quicker results
3. May be more convenient

Disadvantages

1. Sessions can be up to 90 minutes
2. Increased rates of local reactions and premedication with an antihistamine is recommended
3. May not be suited to very sensitive patients

Sublingual Immunotherapy (SLIT)

Unlike Classic and Cluster IT that utilizes shots, SLIT utilized allergens administered in a liquid or tablet form under the tongue to achieve similar changes in the immune system. Similar to SCIT, an extract is prepared based upon a person's history and skin test results. SLIT has a favorable side effect profile. Common side effects are local itching/burning of the mouth or lips or GI upset. More serious side effects are very rare. Therefore, the first dose of SLIT is administered in a doctor's office but then is taken at home on a daily basis.

Advantages:

1. Fewer allergic reactions
2. No need for injections
3. Can be administered at home
4. May be better suited for patients who have only seasonal allergy symptoms

Disadvantages:

1. May not be as effective as SCIT
2. May not be as effective for patients with multiple allergens
3. Out of pocket costs may be increased
4. Unclear if SLIT has the same preventative capabilities of SCIT

Choosing whether immunotherapy and which type of immunotherapy is right for you is a critical part of your health care. Your Allergy Partners physician will work with you to discern what will work best for you.

THE VERDICT: The myth that immunotherapy does NOT work is BUSTED! However, like any medical treatment, the success of immunotherapy rests on proper diagnosis, selection of the best therapy, and, importantly, the right dosage. If these key elements are lacking, immunotherapy may not give the expected results, leading to the myth that immunotherapy does not work. All Allergy Partners physicians are Board Certified Allergist Immunologists with years of experience treating asthma, allergies, sinusitis and other allergic diseases. Our immunotherapy program is the nation's largest and utilizes optimized dosages that improve how well immunotherapy works (efficacy) and minimize side effects. We offer the full range of immunotherapy options as noted above. Immunotherapy is customized for each person, because safety and efficacy are paramount. Allergy Partners continuously collects safety data and reviews immunotherapy dosing recommendations to ensure that our patients receive the highest quality immunotherapy possible.

HOLLISTON, MASS. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Esco Tool has introduced their portable pipe beveling tool that is ideally suited for machining hard alloys typical of subsea applications and pulls a thick chip without cutting oils.

Ideal for making precision joint preps on Super Duplex, P-91, and other high alloy pipes, this vibration-free pipe machining tool pulls a thick chip without cutting oils and transfers heat away from the pipe surface which prolongs blade life.

Only requiring one mandrel and seven sets of clamps for the entire range of the tool, the MILLHOG Commander I.D. Clamping Pipe Beveling Tool can prep all schedules of pipe from 3.75" I.D. to 14" O.D. This tool can perform 37-1/2 bevels, compound, counterbore, and J-preps. A 3HP pneumatic motor is standard; an 1800W electric and hydraulic motors are optional.

The MILLHOG Commander I.D. Clamping Pipe Beveling Tool is priced from $15,995.00 and is available for rent at $690.00 per week.

HOLLISTON, MASS. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Esco Tool has introduced their portable pipe beveling tool that is ideally suited for machining hard alloys typical of subsea applications and pulls a thick chip without cutting oils.

The MILLHOG Commander I.D. Clamping Pipe Beveling Tool features large clamp pads with six contact points to evenly spread their holding forces and mount rigidly. Ideal for making precision joint preps on Super Duplex, P-91, and other high alloy pipes, this vibration-free pipe machining tool pulls a thick chip without cutting oils and transfers heat away from the pipe surface which prolongs blade life.

Only requiring one mandrel and seven sets of clamps for the entire range of the tool, the MILLHOG Commander I.D. Clamping Pipe Beveling Tool can prep all schedules of pipe from 3.75" I.D. to 14" O.D. This tool can perform 37-1/2 bevels, compound, counterbore, and J-preps. A 3HP pneumatic motor is standard; an 1800W electric and hydraulic motors are optional.

The MILLHOG Commander I.D. Clamping Pipe Beveling Tool is priced from $15,995.00 and is available for rent at $690.00 per week.

GREENVILLE, S.C. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

The time has come for employers to be provided the tools they need in order to understand all of their self insured cost components, drill down into each part of that cost and build a strategy on what to do about it. How has it taken so long to have this information on-demand?

The bottom line is that no one cares about an employer's 'bottom line' as much as they do. Self Insured Reporting worked with some of the most astute companies in the country to create a platform that will give employers everything they need to manage their self insured plans from one spot.

The software that has been released by Self Insured Reporting works directly with employers to help them enhance their reporting, but Self Insured Reporting can also work with brokers to perform the same functions. Self Insured Reporting is not a broker and doesn't want to be. Self Insured Reporting simply wants to provide brokers and employers with a solution to help their plans perform better.

This software solution is helping employers everywhere answer three important questions:

How is our plan performing versus our budget for the year? How about our stop loss contract?

What are the costs expected to be for the rest of the plan year? What is my expected renewal?

How are the medical and pharmacy claims trending for each plan? What about network performance?

Self Insured Reporting has pricing readily available on their website and are prepared to offer initial consultations today.

TAMPA, FLA. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Several countries now refuse dogs unless the import documents prove Fluffy has been vaccinated for canine influenza. Air Animal urges all pet owners to vaccinate their dogs against canine influenza before relocation or travel of any kind.

"Dog flu is easily prevented by visiting your veterinarian for two doses of the canine flu vaccine," said Dr. Walter Woolf, VMD, Air Animal's veterinarian founder. "The first vaccination provides partial immunity. The second vaccination given about two weeks later is a booster which gives stronger protection."

According to Woolf, New Zealand and other countries now requiring dog flu vaccination usually accept a recent booster shot if the documents show full previous immunization and the booster administration date.

There are two types of canine influenza vaccines. Ask your veterinarian which she recommends.

Zoetis – Vanguard CIV H3N2/H3N8 – 2 vaccinations, 3 weeks apart. Considered fully vaccinated 7 days after the second shot.

Merck – Nobivac CIV H3N2/H3N8 – 2 vaccinations, 2 weeks apart. Considered fully vaccinated 14 days after the second shot.

Flu in dogs is potentially dangerous and a very communicable respiratory disease. Dogs that come down with the flu develop fevers and coughs that last one to three weeks. You may notice decreased appetite, lethargy and a greenish discharge from the nose and eyes. Some dogs develop higher fevers and pneumonia. Severe flu cases can cause death.

"If you're traveling with your dog--especially to an overseas destination--this ounce of prevention really is better than a pound of cure," Woolf says.

WACONIA, MINN. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

The Health Enhancement Research Organization (HERO) announced today that its Board of Directors has elected Karen Moseley as HERO's next President. Moseley assumed the position from Paul Terry, Ph.D., on January 1, 2019.

Prior to being chosen as the next leader of HERO, Moseley served as the organization's Vice President of Education and Director of Operations. In these positions, she was instrumental in growing HERO membership, increasing member engagement, and continuously improving educational programming. According to Terry, Moseley brings fresh and visionary leadership to the health and well-being field.

"I've never worked with a more capable business leader than Karen," said Terry. "Her readiness to lead HERO lends to the sustainability of significant relationships that she and I and the HERO team have established over the years with HERO members. I know that Karen's stepping into the President's role will absolutely delight our many national partners and stakeholders who share our passion for health and well-being for all."

Prior to her role at HERO, Moseley held leadership positions in several other non-profit organizations including as Director of Research for the Population Health Alliance. Moseley holds a degree in Business Administration from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Moseley succeeds Terry, who will transition to the role of Senior Fellow with HERO. This position allows Terry to advise on educational content that HERO produces for the annual HERO Forum, members-only Think Tank meetings, and webinars, while also serving as editor of the American Journal of Health Promotion and pursuing personal interests. Terry will report directly to Moseley.

"I couldn't be more excited to continue working with the exceptional team at HERO and our dedicated member organizations as we collectively work to make health and well-being a reality for workplaces, communities and individuals everywhere," said Moseley. "We are fortunate that we will continue to draw upon Paul for his research expertise and visionary thought leadership as we evolve and grow the organization in the coming years."

The HERO succession planning process was led by Board Vice Chair Anita Shaughnessy, who is Vice President of Health and Well-being at Wells Fargo.

"Our succession plan involved a full year process that included consideration of an external national search, which we soon decided against given how strong Karen presented as an internal candidate," said Shaughnessy. "The HERO Board enthusiastically agreed with an external assessment that featured Karen's exemplary ability to lead teams, her process orientation and her focus, drive and mental discipline. We are confident in her ability to lead and grow the organization."

According to Shaughnessy, the HERO Board also recognized Moseley's demonstrated commitment to HERO's vision and mission and her established success as a leader who offers vital continuity for the organization.

The inauguration ceremony for Moseley will occur at HERO's members-only Think Tank in San Antonio, Texas, February 12-13, 2019.

WATERLOO, ILL. (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

Citizens for Radioactive Radon Reduction (CR3) announced that it will be adding continued radon awareness regarding well and water testing as part of their radon advocacy initiatives. "We will be refocusing our approach to respond to issues surrounding water testing for radon given the current environmental climate." said Director Gloria Linnertz. As someone with a deep invested background in policy, advocacy and government, Gloria understands that a strong consumer voice is critical to protecting and improving air and water quality, promoting better health and preventing lung cancer.

Citizens for Radioactive Radon Reduction will be presenting ideas regarding ways in which property owners and concerned communities can engage in local advocacy with respect to radon testing. With the help of community organizations who are advocating not only for radon testing and mitigation, but also, health assessments, free CT Scans and physician awareness; the hope is that stronger health awareness will cause property owners to pay more attention to their health situation which might be affected by long-term exposure to contaminants. This third step is critical in preventing radon-related lung cancer. 'It's not enough to just test our homes", said Gloria Linnertz, Director of CR3, "with the up-swing in well contamination from contaminants due to fracking in states like Pennsylvania, we would be remiss if we did not implement a stronger and more complete radon testing education plan.

Citizens for Radioactive Radon Reduction advocates for policy change, connects diverse institutions that serve the same radon eradication goals, pushes for more resources for patients, homeowners and schools, educates local officials about the need for testing, and empowers parents and youth to become advocates in their own local communities.

"Every year we gain more members from every part of the world.", says Jacquelyn Nixon, Publisher of CR3 News Magazine. "Our world-wide publication is dedicated to promoting the efforts of those members and the industry who are working towards improving the situation of radon and lung cancer. This January 2019 issue starts out educating people about the issues of fracking because very few people are aware that radon is included as a contaminant from that effort."

Unconventional oil and gas development (UOGD, or "fracking") has the potential to impact water quality at many stages of the process. If water comes from a private well, property owners should be particularly aware of water quality issues. Private well water quality is not regulated in the United States, and well owners are responsible for performing their own monitoring. Regular monitoring is particularly important if the property is within three miles of UOGD activities.

OVERLAND PARK, KAN. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

TopConsumerReviews.com recently gave their best-in-class 5 star rating to Cars, a leader among websites for people Selling Cars.

When the time comes to sell a car, most people already know that going to a dealership isn't likely to get them the most cash - so instead they focus on selling it on their own. However, gone are the days of tired classified ads or barely-seen "For Sale" signs in the windows: today's smartest car owners use the power of the internet to get their car the maximum exposure - and probably more cash in their pockets once the sale is complete. While there are many websites designed to serve as a platform for selling cars; the best ones charge low fees or none at all, have a solid reputation for legitimate listings, and offer an easy-to-use website that makes it quick and painless to list a car for sale.

"Could there be a better place for selling cars than a service that's actually named 'Cars'?" offered Brian Dolezal of TopConsumerReviews.com, LLC. "This trusted service offers three ways to sell a car: traditional private ads, online Quick Offers from nearby car dealerships, and in-person appraisals. Each option is affordable, and Cars provides detailed information about what to expect from the process. Cars is both 'A+' rated and accredited by the Better Business Bureau, and this service earns our highest-ranked spot among websites offering resources for selling cars in 2018."

NEW YORK, NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Skye Patrick, director of the LA County Library, is Library Journal's 2019 Librarian of the Year. The award, announced today online and sponsored by Baker & Taylor, honors a professional librarian for outstanding achievements and accomplishments reflecting the loftiest service goals of the field.

Patrick has led the LA County Library, one of the largest systems in the United States, with 87 facilities serving 3.4 million people, since 2015. Her efforts to eliminate barriers and increase access to services have had a huge impact. She is recognized for her transformative work and her creative and strategic approach to revolutionizing inclusion in libraries. Patrick will receive a $1,500 cash prize and is celebrated in a Library Journal cover story.

Focused on her mission to break down barriers and increase access, Patrick introduced the iCount training initiative to LA County staff to ensure that they consciously design services and programs in each branch to address the needs of the diverse communities they serve. The initiative, which began in 2017, makes deliberate, intentional efforts to ensure that all community members get the resources they need, knowing those needs differ as a result of race, ethnicity, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender, socioeconomic status, physical ability, nationality, legal status, and more. Over the past two years, the entire senior staff of LA County has completed iCount training.

The first African American and openly LGBTQ+ person to serve as director of the LA County Library, Patrick believes that today's libraries must change both within and without.

"There is a strong, important future for libraries.... Libraries are not about books, they are about people. We have to change how we serve and engage people," she said. "The library of the 21st century must build a high level of engagement with the community and all the people and be a constant learning environment both formally and informally."

Continuing, she said, "This field needs to make more room for people who are not your typical library types. We need to make room for different disciplines to come into this field and expand it."

When Patrick arrived in 2015, the library was facing a deficit. In the two and a half years of her management, she has raised more than $30 million in grants, expanded mobile programming, and adjusted staffing to expand service hours across 75 of the system's locations at no additional cost to taxpayers, largely through administrative reorganization. Bringing the LA County system into the digital age and increasing access to lifelong learning experiences for residents of all ages are among Patrick's other landmark achievements.

"Skye Patrick exemplifies the vision and creativity needed to ensure that libraries connect with and serve all members of their increasingly diverse communities," said Rebecca T. Miller, editorial director of Library Journal and School Library Journal. "Her transformative leadership style and enthusiasm have reinvigorated the LA County Library. We are excited to honor her as LJ's 2019 Librarian of the Year."

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Mediaplanet is proud to announce the launch of this December's edition of "Internet of Everything." This campaign will act as an educational guidebook for modern business owners and IT decision makers. It educates people on the areas that IoT is having the biggest impact and advises key decision makers on how to implement IoT and build upon relevant applications in their existing business ecosystem. Advocating that IoT technology can seamlessly sync together with their daily processes in order to save time, money, and assist in making better decisions across the organization.

"IoT" is the term used to describe the internet of things: the connection via the internet of computing devices embedded in everyday objects, enabling them to send and receive data. Installation of smart IoT devices gives your business and its occupant's numerous benefits, the same benefits that technology and personal computing have brought to us over the past 30 years: convenience and the savings of time, money and energy. The internet of things is an essential driver for customer-facing innovation, data-driven optimization and automation, and digital transformation, as well as entirely new applications, business models and revenue streams across all sectors. At the same time, challenges regarding regulation, security and data, and even a universal understanding of what IoT is and how it can be applied are still being tackled.

The print component of "Internet of Everything" was distributed within San Francisco Chronicle with a circulation of approximately 163,000 copies and an estimated readership of 1.4 million people. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.futureofbusinessandtech.com/topic/internet-of-everything.

Robert Herjavec, entrepreneur and star of CNBC's "Shark Tank," is featured on the cover of the print publication. Through an exclusive interview, Robert discusses how cybersecurity can help businesses grow. "Security isn't an IT issue, it's a board-level issue for organizations globally. To speak more broadly, it's a global citizen issue." says Herjavec. He believes that cybersecurity is integral to building and maintaining customer experience as well: "By swiftly taking action...brands can take the first step in rebuilding trust and demonstrating that security is a priority."

The campaign features several notable IoT and industry thought leaders, from Robert Herjavec, Jeff Gordon, the NSA, Cloud Security Alliance, the American Farm Bureau, Industrial Internet Consortium, National Association of Manufacturers and more.

This campaign was made possible with the support of Sprint, Arable, Crop One Holdings, UL, CB Technologies, PTC, Blackberry and Spinlister.

Mediaplanet announces the launch of this December's edition of "Pet Wellness." This campaign will serve as a 360 guide for pet owners on pet wellness while also advocating for the adoption of shelter animals.

The print component of "Pet Wellness" was distributed within LA Times in Los Angeles with a circulation of approximately 261,000 copies and an estimated readership of 783,000.

Dog Behavior expert Cesar Milan graces the cover of the print publication. Through an exclusive interview on the interior, Cesar reveals how humans must first train themselves before training their dogs. "Most people want to train the dog, but they don't have the knowledge .... The student is only as good as the teacher," said Millan. "My clients love their dogs, but their dogs don't respect my clients," Millan said. "Trust and respect is an activity you do separate from love, and eventually they merge."

Emma Kenney, star of Showtime's Shameless and ABC's The Conners is also featured in the publication. In the exclusive interview Emma shares the importance of adopting pets from Shelters and how she uses her social media platforms to help shelter pets find forever homes.

This campaign was made possible with the support of the ASPCA, American Kennel Club, Cesar Millan, Emma Kenney, Zoetis, Embark Vet, Canine Companions for Independence, Spectrum Pet Brands, Pet King Brands, Ace Hotels, Halo Pets, Whitebridge Pet Brands, CBD Dog Health, Michaelson Found Animal Foundation, American Humane, LilBub, Hamlett the Piggy, Manny the Frenchie, and Lilly the Morkie.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Many professionals in the human service industry say their job is more of a calling than a choice, and that helping people is one of the most rewarding parts. From social workers and therapists, to educators and school counselors, those in the business of serving others appreciate the small and significant ways they're able to impact people's lives every day.

As "helping professions," careers in human services are commonly grouped with other fields viewed as "feminine," like nursing and teaching. The perception of human services as "woman-dominated," is problematic in a number of ways, and potentially harmful to the very women who "dominate" its practitioner base.

Today, women constitute 81.6% of social workers, 69.9% of counselors, and 82.4% of social and human service assistants. Moreover, men account for less than 10% of social workers under the age of 34, suggesting that their numbers will dwindle even more in the next couple of decades. This campaign highlights the growing opportunity for men in the many fields of human services, showcase reputable colleges and universities who are offering programs and certificates, as well as demonstrate the increasing contributions being made by men within human services professions.

The print component of "Men in Human Services" was distributed within USAToday in New York, LA, D.C. Baltimore, Houston, Chicago markets, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.educationandcareernews.com/topic/men-in-human-services

This campaign was made possible with the support of the National Association of Social Workers, the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, American Association for Men in Nursing, Nebraska Methodist College, Lipscomb University, Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, Liberty University, and California University of Pennsylvania.

PHOENIX (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Coterie Advisory Group, Inc (Coterie) and Lindsey Healthcare Holdings LLC (LHH) announced today the formation and launch of a new jointly held healthcare and insurance organization. The new company, doing business as Healthcare 212°, will focus on both consumer and agent needs by developing innovative healthcare solutions for multiple market segments.

Healthcare 212° is being led by industry veterans, David Lindsey, CEO of Lindsey Healthcare Holdings; along with Timothy Cook, former SVP of AXIS Insurance Company, and the Co-founders of Coterie Advisory Group, Ben Rozum and Aaron Cook. The partners have a combined entrepreneurial track-record of establishing high-value businesses which led to successful acquisitions by publicly traded companies and backing by private equity firms. With decades of industry experience and collective ingenuity to solve market problems, the partners believe that Healthcare 212° is well-positioned for explosive growth.

David Lindsey said, "I am extremely optimistic about the market opportunities that exist and continue to develop in healthcare. Consumers are struggling more than ever with choice and affordability while insurance agents are fighting for a sustainable career." Lindsey added, "I can't think of a better time to be able to create and provide meaningful programs and I feel like we've put together a dream team to make it happen."

Since the Affordable Care Act was passed in 2010, the average monthly premium for an individual enrolled on an exchange plan has risen to $440 per month with an average deductible of $4,533. When surveyed, many Americans indicate that $200 per month (or less) is what they would define as affordable. As a result, 27.5 million Americans remain uninsured. With the individual mandate revoked and the recent Texas federal judge ruling that Obamacare is unconstitutional, more opportunities will arise in the marketplace to provide alternative healthcare solutions. Healthcare 212° will capitalize on providing affordable options to individual consumers while relying on trusted insurance agents and brokers as distribution partners, made available through associations and employer groups.

According to Timothy Cook, "My partners and I have spent our careers focused on building businesses that provide affordable and alternative healthcare options in niche markets. I am excited to get back to my entrepreneurial roots and join David, Ben and Aaron to help set strategic direction and strategic business development for our new venture at Healthcare 212°." Cook continued, "Our existing partner relationships with carriers, vendors, and distributors will be imperative for our business growth while we also look to aggressively identify and establish new partner relationships."

Healthcare 212° is fully launched and rapidly establishing its footprint on a national basis. Their platform includes advanced technology and live support for agents to manage their client book of business and for consumers to manage their policies. To learn more, please go to http://www.healthcare212.com.

We are committed to solving healthcare challenges through innovation and affordable options - putting the "Power" to choose back in the hands of agents and consumers.

ONEIDA INDIAN NATION HOMELANDS, N.Y. (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Oneida Indian Nation, owner of the award-winning Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, NY, announced today that, subject to National Indian Gaming Commission review, it will be partnering with global gaming leader Caesars Entertainment to bring sports betting to Upstate New York with a licensing and branding alliance. "The Lounge with Caesars Sports" will open at Turning Stone, Yellow Brick Road Casino and Point Place Casino in 2019, following completion of the NIGC review and the New York State Gaming Commission's issuance of sports betting regulations, which the Nation will adopt for its casinos pursuant to the Nation-State gaming compact.

Through this new relationship, Turning Stone, Yellow Brick Road and Point Place Casino players will be able to exchange and redeem their TS Rewards loyalty points, as well as have their player tier levels matched, for Total Rewards Points at all Caesars properties, with the same exchange available for Caesars players at Oneida Indian Nation properties. Caesars will also sponsor special player promotions and events at its new partner venues, further bringing the excitement of Las Vegas to New York gaming locations at the Oneida Indian Nation.

Oneida Indian Nation Representative and Nation Enterprises CEO Ray Halbritter said: "When it comes to sports betting, Caesars is in a class of its own. We are pleased to be joining forces with this world-renowned gaming leader." Halbritter continued: "Like Oneida Nation Enterprises, Caesars has built its business on exceptional service, as well as a dedication to constant innovation. These shared values create the perfect synergy for a meaningful long-term partnership."

Turning Stone Resort Casino, regularly rated as the Top Casino in New York, and Caesars Entertainment, with their shared values in creating superior guest experiences, look forward to working together as partners in New York State when approved to move forward. As a result, the Turning Stone sports books will be introduced as "The Lounge with Caesars Sports."

"We are eagerly awaiting the National Indian Gaming Commission's review of this innovative new partnership involving a licensing and branding arrangement. The Oneida Indian Nation has already established Turning Stone as the preeminent New York gaming destination, which makes the property and its sister casinos fitting partners for Caesars," said Christian Stuart, Executive Vice President Gaming and Interactive Entertainment, about the new partnership. "When it comes to partnerships, Caesars seeks collaborators who share our commitment to exceeding guest expectations, and we are confident that "The Lounge with Caesars Sports" at Turning Stone, Yellow Brick Road Casino and Point Place Casino will be a top sports betting destination in New York."

Mediaplanet is proud to partner with the nccPA Health Foundation on this year’s “Access to Oral Health” campaign. This partnership highlights the importance of certified physician assistants (PAs) in bridging gaps to provide oral health access and care.
Certified PAs expand access to quality dental and preventative oral health care by providing frontline screening, risk assessment, counseling services, and referrals. These offerings are especially important for the nearly 58 million people in the United States who live in areas where it is difficult to access care. The 131,000 certified PAs are equipped to address how oral disease can affect chronic conditions, like diabetes and cardiovascular disease and educate patients about the importance of self-care.
Certified PAs practice in all settings and specialties. By educating about the links between oral health and overall health, certified PAs can help ensure both for patients.
To read the complete editorial piece, authored by Dawn Morton-Rias, Ed. D., PA-C, click here.
The print component of "Access to Oral Health" is distributed within the May 3rd regional circulation of USA Today, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

Helping to better incorporate and empower todays freelance workforce, MediaPlanet today announces the launch of their first ever "Empowering Freelance Workers" campaign. This campaign will look to empower the freelance workforce and portray these ever-growing opportunities for them in today's gig-economy and provide them with inspiration as well as tolls and resources for safety and success.

Freelancers, contract workers, and independent workers currently make up about 34% of the workforce in the United States, equivalent to about 57 million workers. With this new and expanding gig-economy, freelance, contract, and independent workers continue to increase in numbers, but their type of work and choice of workplace still is not provided with the same benefits, treatment, and tools that typical workers have. Because freelance work will only continue to become more popular as time goes on, it can and will become more normalized, and there are products, tools, benefits, and solutions being made for these types of workers. This campaign will empower them despite these difficulties so that they can strive and succeed in their careers.

The print component of "Empowering Freelance Workers" is distributed within today's edition of USAToday in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington D.C./Baltimore, Houston, Atlanta, and Philadelphia markets, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.futureofbusinessandtech.com/topic/empowering-freelance-workers

The Freelancers Union's director, Caitlin Pearce, graces the cover of the print publication. Inside, she provides insight into some of the hardships faced by this workforce and provides exclusive statistics on the industry. Additionally, famous graphic designer and creator of the FedEx logo, Lindon Leader, shares his advice and experiences on creative freelancing. This is to inspire as well as assist new or current freelancers in this industry that many just be starting out. And to assist all freelancers, #1 Life & Business Strategist, #1 New York Times Best-Selling Author, Entrepreneur and Philanthropist Tony Robbins offers incredible advice and coaching for anyone in industry or looking to join-in. He not only provides financial advice, but also tips and tricks on the attitude one should embody, being your own boss, self-motivation, and more.

This campaign was made possible with the support of the Freelancers Union, the American Society of Journalists and Authors, the National Association for Female Executives, the American Writers and Artists Incorporated, the Small Business Association, GEICO, Ubiquity Retirement + Savings, Trusted Choice Inc., The Mom Project, Tony Robbins, and Lindon Leader.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) JANUARY 02, 2019

As we approach the conclusion of 2018 and the Worldwide Food Service Safety Month, Mediaplanet launches their newest "Restaurants in America" campaign. This campaign sheds light on the vast growing industry within its health and safety aspect as well as the industry standards for equipment, supplies, technological advancements and trends.

Restaurant and food service jobs have been increasing since 2017, growing faster than health care, construction, and manufacturing. In some metros, restaurants are powering the entire economy. More than a third of Cleveland's new jobs since 2015 are in restaurants, according to EMSI data. The food distributor industry employs a workforce of 350,000 people and supports an additional 700,000 jobs in the nation's economy, for a total employment impact of more than 1 million jobs, according to the IFDA. With an industry growing and evolving so rapidly, new advancements and regulations abound to get lost in the shuffle.

Statistics show that most restaurants don't make a profit until after their first 3-5 years of business, making the initial years essential to their sustainability. Few restaurateurs can afford to fully stock their kitchen out of pocket, leaving them using outdated and unsafe equipment. With the new industrial kitchen equipment being used as the industry standards, restaurateurs and food service professionals need to know not only what equipment to use, but where to obtain them.

The print component of "Restaurants in America" is distributed within today's edition of USA Today in the New York, Washington D.C./Baltimore, Chicago and Los Angeles markets, with a circulation of approximately 250,000 copies and an estimated readership of 750,000. The digital component is distributed nationally, through a vast social media strategy, and across a network of top news sites and partner outlets. To explore the digital version of the campaign, visit: http://www.futureofbusinessandtech.com/topic/restaurants-in-america

Executive chef, TV personality and restaurateur Paul Wahlberg are featured on the cover of the print publication. Prior to his starring role on the hit A&E show "Wahlburgers", owning the burger restaurant chain of the same name, and paving the way for his family matriarch inspired Alma Nove restaurant, Paul Wahlberg simply set off to become a chef with a love of food. Through an exclusive interview on the interior, Paul shares his beginnings as a young chef in Boston, and how he grew to be a multi-restaurant owner and executive chef. The article provides insight on how Paul was able to make his restaurants an extension of his artistic culinary vision. You must "allow the team to build its identity in the restaurant's framework," he noted.

This campaign was made possible with the support of the U.S. Small Business Administration, National Sanitation Foundation, Modern Restaurant Management, Purell, QSR Automations, JMH Premium Institute of Food Technologists and the International Food and Beverage Technology Association (IFBTA).

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) JANUARY 03, 2019

Washington, D.C.: Venio Systems, the fastest growing e-Discovery technology provider, has hired Michelle Spencer as their Director of Education and Communication. This hire is part of Venio's strategic focus on providing additional educational content for and communication with both their partners and the legal marketplace as a whole.

Spencer has spent most of her entire career working in law firms, first on legal teams as a paralegal and then in IT focusing on training and support. For the last several years, Spencer has consulted with law firms on their use and adoption of technology, as well as designing innovative training programs. This makes her the ideal candidate to continue to develop and improve Venio's existing Certified Administrator program, as well as several new offerings. Stay tuned for additional announcements in 2019.

Long-term, deep ties to the legal technology community are another key reason for Venio's selection of Spencer as the right person for this job. By being active on social media and volunteering in organizations like the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA), Association for Training and Development (ATD), and Texas Judicial Committee on Information Technology (JCIT), she keeps her finger on the pulse of what is occurring in legal technology, the legal marketplace, and corporate education.

Spencer says, "I'm looking forward to getting back to the roots of my early career when I was actively working on cases with the lawyers I supported as a paralegal. Back then, the discovery was paper-based, but supporting folks with those same tasks in law firms recently has kept me up to date with the developments as eDiscovery has grown. As a technologist and educator, I am particularly excited about the legal marketplace finally adopting assisted review technology that utilizes artificial intelligence, such as Venio's continuous active learning (CAL) module. It's a fun time to be working in eDiscovery!"

Bimal Tamrakar, President of Venio Systems further explains, "Michelle has continuously worked with us to bring our Certified Administrator course to the next level and designed a CAL Workshop that she presented for our partners at ILTACON. We were impressed with her work, as well as her deep knowledge and connections in the legal community. We are very pleased to have her to join our team as Director of Education and Communication to bring more valuable education to our partners."
