The production at Rene Innovatives Wohnen in Austria
ConverTTables are proudly made in Austria, crafted by Rene Innovatives Wohnen. During the making of the programme, Rene Peconik, head of the company, gives a behind-the scenes tour and demonstrates the precise practice to produce a coffe table and a cockpit all rolled into one. Marc Bosch gets the opportunity to witness craftmanship that leads to this high-quality-furniture with his own eyes. The ConverTTable is produced following the saying: There are no limits to what carpentry can achieve! We accompany the ConverTTable from the production hall to the premises of the company Blödorn in Hartberg, where the ConverTTable is tested to the core in a real Hi-Fi studio that leaves no wish unanswered. Where men become kids again.

The series ConverTTable
The ConverTTable subtly blends in delicately into a living room and can be used and hooked up with existing devices such as a TV-set or a sound station. When not in use, the ConverTTable looks like a fancy coffee table that can be, after coffee had been served and cookies had been eaten, turned into a multi-functional racing cockpit featuring a bucket seat, a steering wheel, gas plus other gears and a keyboard - all that without striking a blow.

The ConverTTable base model, priced at € 5.433,-- incl. Vat, is available in the combination white/wood, features an extraordinarily durable plastic-surface and includes the RECARO sport-seat, Shaker System, a Porsche GT3RS wheel and ClubSport pedals.

There are no holds barred for he demanding taste though: whoever wants to have his/her own colour-combinations realized goes for a customized version! The ConverTTable Custom comes with painted surfaces as well as the option of painted or real wooden side walls, priced at € 6.133,-- incl. Vat.

IAPAM Announces the 2012 Dates for Symposiums with Botox ®Training and hCG Training

Today, the IAPAM announced its 2012 dates for its respected Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums and hCG Physician Training seminars.

Las Vegas, Nevada, December 09, 2011 -- Patient demand for Botox ® and other minimally invasive cosmetic procedures is at an all time high. The IAPAM is helping physicians enter this lucrative market by offering their dermatologist-led, 2-day Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox ® Training. Physicians learn everything they need to start offering botox ® and other in-demand aesthetic medicine procedures. Today, the IAPAM announced its 2012 dates for its respected Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums and hCG Physician Training seminars.

Two recent surveys, published in the article “Impact of the Current Economy on Facial Aesthetic Surgery,” appearing in the September 2011 issue of the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, reveal that “many patients are delaying facial plastic surgery and instead seeking out less-costly nonsurgical options due to the impact of the current recession. “That the current economy is affecting patients’ choices around facial rejuvenation is not so surprising, since previous surveys from ASAPS have shown a decrease in aesthetic surgical procedures and a slight uptick in nonsurgical procedures over recent years,” said T. Jonathan Kurkjian MD, of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, who served as lead author of the study.

Physicians considering the launch of a medspa are making a wise business decision, as they capitalize on this “uptick” in non-surgical procedure demand. To assist physicians in entering this lucrative market, The International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine’s (http://www.iapam.com) Aesthetic Medicine Symposium (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com) is designed by physicians for physicians to support the addition of aesthetic medicine modalities, including botox ®, to an existing practice, or launching a medical spa. This 2 day educational event showcases the most important clinical and business aesthetic medicine training. Physicians who complete the IAPAM’s Symposium have a competitive advantage.

Over 950 physicians (MDs, DOs, PAs, NPs, and DDSs), as well as their medspa managers, registered nurses, and assistants, have attended the IAPAM’s hands-on Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/botoxtraining) and hCG Training (http://www.hcgtraining.com) seminars since 2006. Today, the IAPAM announced the 2012 dates for its Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona:

January 28-29, 2012
April 28-29, 2012
June 2-3, 2012

The Aesthetic Medicine Symposium provides physicians:

- dedicated instruction from two board-certified dermatologists, who are true experts of the skin and cosmetic injectables.
- hands-on practice in the best injection techniques.
- botox ® training at a multi-million dollar medical practice, not in a hotel room.
- an environment that does not allow exhibitors, giving doctors more time for education.
- the opportunity to attend the Symposium’s Aesthetic Practice Startup Workshop (http://www.iapam.com/bootcamp.html) on the Monday after each Symposium, a program highlighting the latest information on medspa business development and social media marketing.
- the opportunity to attend the IAPAM’s hCG/Medical Weight Management (http://www.hcgtraining.com) on Friday before each Symposium, which covers hCG for weight loss, prescription appetite suppressants, ketogenic diet based programs, meal replacement and B6/12 injections.

Dates for the 2012 hCG Medical Weight Loss Training, in Scottsdale, Arizona, have also been announced:

January 27, 2012
April 27, 2012
June 1, 2012

For additional information and to register for a 2012 Aesthetic Medicine Symposium and/or hCG Medical Weight Management Training session, please contact the IAPAM at 1-800-219-5108 ext. 704, or visit http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com or http://www.hcgtraining.com.

Whiskey could be next big thing for alternative investors, claims AAA

Alternative investment advocacy group, Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA) has spoken out in favor of investing in rare Scotch whiskey as an alternative to stocks and shares.

Boston, MA, USA, December 09, 2011 -- Alternative investment advocacy group, Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA) has spoken out in favor of investing in rare Scotch whiskey as an alternative to stocks and shares.

AAA's statement comes after a Financial Times article highlighted the asset class as a viable and popular means of diversifying an investment portfolio. For the past 20 years, the article claims, investors have been increasingly interested in rare Scotch as an asset class, as some have seen their values rise hugely in a matter of months.

The FT claims that the top performing 250 bottles could have been purchased in 2008 for £42,508 and would sell today for £94,884, which represents an increase of 123.62 per cent. "Not bad when compared with the stock markets," asserted AAA's analysis partner, Anthony Johnson.

AAA added that anyone who bought the top 100 bottles, in terms of their return on investment, would have seen their initial outlay deliver returns of an extremely impressive 162.96 per cent. This is all according to the figures published through the Whiskey Highland Index.

Anthony Johnson added, “Alternative investments are becoming so common these days that those looking for the very best returns are looking past fine wine, art and antiques and are now stepping into the new territory of fine whiskey.”

Some of the best returns are available on less expensive whiskeys, such as those released by big names like Macallan and Glenfiddich, which - even at investment grade - can be bought from less than £100.

AAA is keen to promote a truly alternative view of investment and also to support more ethical investment, such as projects that benefit communities in developing countries. Mr Johnson explained, "As alternatives become more mainstream, more people tend to look for projects that deliver returns while helping to protect communities or the environment, such as Greenwood Management's forestry plantation projects in Brazil."

About Alternative Asset Analysis:
The remit of Alternative Asset Analysis is to analyse and provide news on the global performance of a wide range of alternative asset classes including, but not restricted to, commodities, real estate, forestry, foreign exchange, hedge funds, private equity and venture capital.

TechNavio Announces the Publication of its Report - Global Hardware One-Time Password Token Authentication Market 2010-2014

TechNavio, a market research leader in the area of IT Security, recently published its report, Global Hardware One-Time Password Token Authentication Market 2010-2014.

London, UK, December 09, 2011 -- TechNavio, a market research leader in the area of IT Security, recently published its report, Global Hardware One-Time Password Token Authentication Market 2010-2014. The report covers the Americas and the EMEA and APAC regions, and discusses significant trends impacting the growth of this market. The report is based on an in-depth study of the market with inputs from key industry participants. In addition to profiling key vendors, the report discusses the important drivers, trends, and challenges for the industry.

TechNavio's report highlights that the declining price of hardware one-time password (OTP) tokens is resulting in increased adoption among small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Regulatory guidelines that were previously applicable only to large enterprises are now applicable to SMBs as well. Hence, the increasing frequency of attacks, coupled with the growing regulatory requirements, is driving SMBs to adopt strong authentication solutions such as hardware OTP tokens.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio's IT Security team said, "One of the major reasons for the growth in the overall IT Security market is strict compliance requirements. However, a key challenge facing this market is the growing preference for software authentication solutions over hardware OTP token solutions. As a result, the Software Authentication market has been witnessing stronger growth."

Key findings from the report:
• Price-based Competition Leading to Reduction in Prices
• High Initial Deployment and Replacement Costs of Hardware Tokens in Some Regions
• Low Regulatory Requirements in Developing Regions
