The Randomness of Life a Novel by Marilyn Warda Now Available Worldwide

The Randomness of Life tells a compassionate story of heroes and their families who deal with neurological disorders.

Carlsbad, CA, USA - July 18, 2012 -- The Randomness of Life by Marilyn Warda's has been released world-wide in print and eBook formats.

Warda's breakout novel opens in Barranquitas, Venezuela, a small and impoverished fishing village that serves as a world magnet for studying a genetic mutation that guarantees an early onset of a horrendous disease and premature death. With the help of an American volunteer, 18-year-old Barranquitas resident Tula Valdesa escapes to Chicago to participate in a leading university’s clinical trial that may alleviate symptoms.

“The Randomness of Life is a compassionate portrayal of life's real heroes and their families,” author Marilyn Warda said. “My hope is that someday soon there will be a cure to eradicate abnormal genes through gene silencing.

“The Randomness of Life is a lot like looking into a mirror. You can visualize yourself in each chapter as the story presents the ultimate of one's fears. The fact remains that despite advances in medical research and prolonging life, everybody dies. Knowing you will age into a neurological and motor decline that ultimately will incapacitate is a horror far surpassing any wrinkle or gray hair.”

The Randomness of Life, 254 pages, is available in softcover - ISBN 9781622870059, hardcover -ISBN 9781622870066 and eBook - ISBN 9781622870042 through Amazon.com, BN.com and all other on-line retailers.

Marilyn Warda, a Northwest Indiana native, is a medical practice manager now working in Southwest Arizona. She has experienced the trials for caring for those suffering from debilitating neurological disease. Marilyn has a BA degree from Purdue University where she majored in communications and journalism.

An Amazon.com review posted by Vicki Christensen stated, “This is such a compassionate story that everyone can relate to through some loved family member or friend. I highly recommend this book and will be waiting for Marilyn Warda's next book!”

NanoMarkets Announces Upcoming Report Titled, Transparent Conductor Markets-2012

NanoMarkets today announced that it has added a new report to its schedule titled, "Transparent Conductor Markets-2012" that is scheduled to be released in early August of 2012.

Glen Allen, Virginia - July 18, 2012 -- Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced that it has added a new report to its schedule titled, "Transparent Conductor Markets-2012" that is scheduled to be released in early August of 2012. In this report NanoMarkets continues its industry leading coverage of transparent conductors (TC) that dates back to 2006. The firm is the recognized authority on TCs and has issued over a dozen different market assessments of the key technology and market trends that have and will continue to drive this market.

Details about the report can be found at http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/transparent_conductor_markets_2012. The firm is offering pre-publication pricing for the report through July 31. Contact the firm at sales@nanomarkets.net for details.

About the Report:

This report provides the necessary strategic insight into how TC firms can best generate new revenues from the rapidly changing business environments within the display, lighting and solar panel sectors. New technologies are emerging such as OLED displays and lighting, flexible displays and transparent electronics in the forms of displays, smart windows and BIPV glass that will provide significant opportunities for ITO alternatives.

Companies addressed by the report include Cambrios, Cima NanoTech, Dow Chemical, Evonik, Ferro, Heraeus, Indium Corporation, Kodak, Mitsui Mining and Smelting, Nippon Mining & Metals, Nitto Denko, Oike, PolyIC, Saint-Gobain, Samsung Corning, Sumitomo, Toray, Tosoh, Ulvac Materials, and others.

In addition, this report examines opportunities for TCs in more established parts of the display sector. It takes an in-depth look at the use of touch-screen technology which is highly suitable for novel TCs. However, there are so many TC firms crowding into this sector that a legitimate question is whether this relatively small market is about to become saturated.

The comprehensive coverage of this report extends beyond the display sector and includes pinpointing the best prospects for TCs in the solar industry. Recently, PV opportunities have been constrained by the influx of low-cost c-Si panels from China with limited need for TCs. In this report, NanoMarkets discusses how the logic of Chinese industrial policy now suggests a possible revival of the thin-film PV market that will create new opportunities for TCs.

Chinese industrial policy is also further examined for what it will mean for ITO pricing and availability. The impact of indium prices on the TC market has been a controversial subject and this report cuts to the chase and shows how the ITO supply chain is really likely to evolve going forward in context of what is planned for the Chinese display, PV and indium industries.

Finally, this report analyzes important developments on the TC materials front and it takes a peek at what the next generation of transparent conductors will look like and how these materials will extend addressable markets. This study also contains detailed eight-year forecasts in volume (square meters) and value terms. For each of the applications covered there are breakouts of demand for ITO, other TCOs, ITO/TCO inks, carbon nanotube films, silver-based transparent conductors, other nanometallic transparent conductors and conductive polymers. And there is also a forecast of ITO products by type (sputtering targets, films, coated glass, etc.).

NanoMarkets Announces Upcoming Report Titled, OTFTs, OFETs and Organic Memory Markets - 2012

NanoMarkets today announced that it has added a new report to its schedule titled, "OTFTs, OFETs and Organic Memory Markets - 2012" that is scheduled to release in early August 2012.

Glen Allen, Virginia - July 18, 2012 -- Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced that it has added a new report to its schedule titled, "OTFTs, OFETs and Organic Memory Markets - 2012" that is scheduled to release in early August 2012. Additional details about the report are available at the NanoMarkets website at http://nanomarkets.net/market_reports/report/otfts_ofets_and_organic_memory_markets_2012. The firm is offering pre-publication pricing for the report through July 31. Contact the firm at sales@nanomarkets.net for details.

About the Report:

Improved materials and new applications have brought a renaissance of interest in the commercialization of thin-film transistors and memories built from organic materials. This NanoMarkets report provides an analysis and forecast of the OTFT/OFET and organic memory markets over the next eight years.

In this report, we identify where the genuine performance improvements in these devices are occurring and how fast they can be expected to grow in process power and storage in the future. This analysis is provided through an in-depth assessment of current commercialization efforts for OTFT/OFETs, memories and related organic "chips".

This study also provides a complete exploration of the markets in which OTFT/OFETs and organic memories can be expected to generate new business revenues. These include a rapidly growing list of low-performance electronics applications such as smart packaging, interactive media and tagging. We also discuss, whether - as was once expected of OTFT/OFETs -- these devices will serve as a key enabling technology for flexible displays.

This report contains a detailed eight-year volume and value forecast of shipments of products with organic "chips" inside. It also includes an eight-year forecast of the materials required for next generation organic transistors and memories. Finally, this report includes NanoMarkets' assessments of the strategies of key firms and research institutions active in this area.
