BusinessVibes showcases the Medical Devices Industry


BusinessVibes, the international business-to-business networking platform, announces this week the launch of a new industry portal for the rapidly growing Medical Devices industry.

London, UK - June 22, 2011 -- BusinessVibes, the international business-to-business networking platform, announces this week the launch of a new industry portal for the rapidly growing Medical Devices industry. This category covers the design, manufacturing, and distribution of medical devices.

BusinessVibes uses a social networking model for business partnerships, so that members can browse curated business directories and join to create their own profiles and form connections with clients, suppliers, distributors, joint venture partners, and more.

This new directory:

- includes 99 leading companies and 97 industry events
- hand-selected and verified by the BusinessVibes research team
- covers 24 countries and 30 product categories

Medical devices include any products that are used to diagnose or treat patients, from thermometers to MRI machines. As medical treatments get more sophisticated, the demand for medical devices is predicted to grow ahead of the healthcare industry overall. This industry is subject to tight government regulation, which keeps the largest markets (United States, Germany, and France) relying largely on domestic products. However, that is changing as Chinese and Mexican products gain in sophistication and market access.

BusinessVibes provides a platform for international buyers and sellers of these products to connect to each other and form partnerships. New companies wishing to join the directory are verified and categorized by the BusinessVibes content team to ensure listings are trustworthy and useful to our members.

Check out this new industry portal at: http://www.businessvibes.com/industry-portal&133

Industries already covered on BusinessVibes include Textiles, Food Processing, Plastic Products, Farm Supplies, Industrial Equipment, Industrial Chemicals, Electronics and Electricals, Renewable Energy, Hotel Supplies, Metal Mining, and more.

Greenwood Management welcomes reports of investors being drawn to alternative assets

Greenwood Management ApS has welcomed reports that fund managers are increasingly keen to invest in alternative assets, including forestry, which is facing a period of particularly healthy growth.

Copenhagen, Denmark, June 21, 2011 -- Greenwood Management ApS has welcomed reports that fund managers are increasingly keen to invest in alternative assets, including forestry, which is facing a period of particularly healthy growth.

The forestry investment firm offers the chance to invest in existing plantations in emerging economies such as Brazil and Costa Rica. They are also managing sustainable plantations in Canada and are pleased to back claims that wood will be traded as a commodity, like other popular alternative assets, within a few years.

Chief Executive of Pöyry Management Consulting, Heikki Malinen, claimed back in May that the demand for timber from emerging economies like China and India will see the market for wood climb to a record high. He added that this will lead to higher prices, as demand in the EU alone is predicted to rise way above supplies by 2020. Pöyry Management Consulting's President, Cormac O'Carroll, told delegates at the forestry investment industry seminar in London, "The scarcity of supply is making wood a valuable resource and we're already starting to see it being traded like more established commodities."

A spokesperson for Greenwood Management said, "As inflation continues to rise, so does the value of commodities, such as timber, gold, oil and real estate. We believe that the increase in interest in alternative assets such as these will continue as investors seek a longer-term option for their cash with values rising as a result."

Greenwood explained that recent reports of the growing demand for biofuels in the East are also great news for forestry investors as the market for timber-based biomass is growing as a result. And it's not just these emerging economies that will demand greater use of biofuels. UK energy bills, for example, are expected to double within a few years, claimed Unicredit, a bank that undertook analysis of the market. Its findings stated "According to our analysis, a typical UK energy bill could rise from the current level of £1,000 per year to over £2,000 per year by 2015. As investment occurs, bills could double every five years until 2020, in our view."

Greenwood Management added, "These major increases in commodity costs, teamed with the lesser need for liquidity in investments, are driving fund managers towards alternative assets, of which forestry is a major growth area."

IAPAM's hCG Training Gives Physicians Best Practices


The IAPAM offers physicians the industry’s best practices and resources for adding hCG for weight loss to a practice. Attendees receive all the tools they need to help them launch their hCG program, and with their IAPAM Membership, they also receive a year of practice support including access to the IAPAM Members' Portal, containing hCG resources like the "hCG Ask an Expert" Q & A Forum.

Las Vegas, NV, June 21, 2011 -- Physicians must be expertly trained in the administration of an hCG Protocol to ensure successful and safe weight loss for their patients. The basis of the IAPAM's Physician hCG Training (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/physician-hcg-weight-loss-training), and echoed during the Dr. Oz Show of February 2011, are:

1. Physician Supervision is Key.
2. Never buy hCG over the internet. Only use pharmaceutical grade hCG as prescribed by a physician. hCG that is not prescribed by a physician is homeopathic hCG and has been found to only contain trace amounts of real hCG.
3. Successful weight loss using hCG requires that the patient follow a proven hCG protocol precisely.

IAPAM's Core hCG Protocol Principles

Consistent with these core tenets, physicians and their staff will learn the exclusive IAPAM hCG for Weight Loss Protocol, based on Dr. Simeons manuscript, Pounds and Inches. Physicians, who attend the IAPAM’s hCG for weight loss program will learn hCG best practices from the IAPAM's faculty (physicians, pharmacists, laser assisted lipolysis specialists and business experts), all of whom have years of experience utilizing hCG for weight loss, and many of whom operate hCG weight loss clinics.

The IAPAM's hCG Training includes:

- Detailed IAPAM hCG Program Protocols
- Patient selection criteria
- Common medical hCG contraindications
- Consent forms, medical history forms
- Comprehensive Patient hCG Program Guidebook to offer patients (hCG friendly recipes, food journal, tips)
- New Patient PowerPoint presentations for the waiting room
- Phone scripts & call logs for your staff
- Legal/Insurance considerations, and current FDA status
- hCG ordering information and special pricing
- Special hCG Facebook discussion forum
- VLCD/LCD diet programs
- Meal replacement diet programs
- Ketogenic based diet programs
- Utilizing B6/B12 injections in weight loss
- Using prescription appetite suppressants in weight loss
- Metabolism testing as a profit center
- Laser assisted lipolysis
- Listing of your hCG Clinic in the IAPAM's NEW hCG Diet Clinic Directory (http://www.iapam.com/aesthetic-resources/hcg-diet-clinics)

Finally, the IAPAM's hCG training is the only medical weight loss training in North America approved for a special medical malpractice rate for those who have attended and have been certified by the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com).

All of the IAPAM's 2010 and 2011 hCG Medical Weight Management seminars have sold out, so to register for the next session in Scottsdale, Arizona, please see http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/physician-hcg-weight-loss-training, or contact the IAPAM at info@theiapam.com or 1-800-219-5108 ext 708.

PB Millionaire's "Dancing" Video Goes Viral


Becomes Talk Of The Town In Pacific Beach.

San Diego, CA, June 20, 2011 -- A just released new video titled, “The PB Millionaire Presents PB,” is the talk of the town here in Pacific Beach. The video, which showcases PB and its hot spots, is hosted by Jim Lawlor - locally known as the “PB Millionaire.” But what attracts so many viewers is not the beautiful scenery of PB, nor the various clubs that are featured, but Lawlor’s dance moves.

Lawlor seems to be a natural born comedian. About two thirds the way through the video, Lawlor is shown trying to get a date with a mannequin in a store window along Garnet Avenue. He, of course, gets “no response” from what he calls “the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life.” Feeling dejected, he resorts to cheering himself on the dance floor at Beachwood – a popular nightclub in PB. And it’s that dancing that’s causing all the buzz. Lawlor’s self-effacing humor leaves some viewers wondering if he really dances like that. But Lawlor doesn't seem to mind. “I think as long as they are entertained – that’s all that matters,” Lawlor says.


As shown in the beginning of the video, Lawlor soon ran out of money after moving here and was forced to sleep in his car on several occasions and he even slept under the Crystal Pier in PB. Although college educated, Lawlor had to paint houses “as a means to get by.” Serendipitously, while painting a house one day, he came up with the idea to protect his eyes from the painful sting of spray paint, that eventually made him a millionaire.

Lawlor is the star of the soon-to-be-released, “PB Reality Show” (www.pbreality.com), which portrays his unique life-style as a self-made millionaire “living the California Dream.” He is also sponsoring the Miss Pacific Beach Contest to be held at PB Bar and Grill on September 14th this year, which will also be a part of the show.

His new Youtube video was featured on the “PB Reality Show’s” Facebook fan page on Friday morning. By the same time the next day, the video had hit over 1600 views and counting. Many local residents, also on Facebook, saw the video and began sharing it with their Facebook friends. And that is what caused the video to get so many views so quickly. Some of those on Facebook left comments about the video: “Jimmy the dancing machine!” – wrote Richard. Ariel wrote, “That is some funny ass sh*#! Thanks for the laughs.” Sonia wrote, “I luv it, can't wait to see the show in 2012.” Marissa wrote, “Really cool to see this from you Jim!!!”

The average video on Youtube gets slightly less than one view per day. For a video to obtain 1600 views in the first day alone is rather extraordinary. Lawlor is ecstatic about the enormous response to his video: “It is a wonderfully gratifying experience to know that you've entertained someone in some way. You've lightened their day and perhaps made them forget, for at least a little while, their problems.”

Eliminating Persistent HIV Reservoirs


A scientific paper has just been published to summarize current research towards HIV cure and draw a roadmap for coming years to achieve it.

Toulon, France, June 20, 2011 -- There is optimism in the air about the recent discoveries in HIV research. through the discovery of antiretroviral therapy (ART) medications, HIV-infected individuals are living longer, happier, healthier lives. For some people, HIV has been effectively managed to the point where it feels like nothing more than a minor chronic illness. It's a testament to how far technology and research in the field has come. However, the fact that 30 years after HIV was first brought into the mainstream consciousness of the world, a cure has not been found. The research has progressed to the point where finding better ways to manage HIV aren't sufficient anymore. HIV cures are the words for the day now.

Alain Lafeuillade, Chief of the Department of Infectious Diseases at General Hospital in Toulon, France, recently released a paper entitled, "Potential Strategies for an HIV Infection Cure." He begins by pointing out that while ART has improved the lives of HIV-infected patients, its widespread availability is limited -especially in developing countries, where HIV medication is few and far between. While a sterilizing cure may be out of reach, he argues, a functional cure, where infection is controlled without ART, is well within reach.

There are several different strategies being discussed and looked into when it comes to developing an HIV cure. The first addresses the HIV reservoirs within the body that house the HIV when it lies dormant in the body during its latency period. The persistence of HIV is evident by studies that show HIV replication returns to its normal rate once ART is stopped in an HIV-infected patient. ART only slows HIV down, it doesn't stop it completely.

The paper stresses that getting rid of the HIV reservoir is the key to finding a functional cure for HIV. Adding drugs to the ART treatment will "wake up" these HIV reservoirs and stimulate production of HIV. The thought process is that stimulating the production will allow the drugs and the body's own immune system more of an opportunity to kill off producing cells and reduce the reservoirs. It also gives a discussion on the progresses in gene therapy that continue to provide positive results so far. The paper ends with a discussion on what is needed from this point forward to move closer toward finding a cure.

Millions of Anthony Weiners


San Rafael, CA - June 17, 2011 -- Contact: Tom Andrews, 415/479-3800

"America has become a nation of Anthony Weiners," says Rich Gosse, the world’s foremost authority on dating. “Tens of millions of Americans are having virtual sex on the internet. Anthony Weiner has exposed America’s greatest secret-the decline of real relationships with real people. A major percentage of Americans are settling for a cheap imitation of loving relationships.

"While the world rejoices at the collapse of dictatorships in the Arab world, in large part due to Facebook and Twitter," says Mr. Gosse, "little is written about the price that we pay in our own country the decline and fall of face-to-face intimacy."

"As the only person who has produced thousands of singles events worldwide, on six continents," says Mr. Gosse, "I have a unique perspective. I have observed that fewer people are attending singles parties over recent years, while not coincidentally Facebook has expanded to 600 million members. If the current trend continues, some day there may be more virtual sexual relationships than real relationships in America.

"For 33 years, I have fought an uphill battle against SHYNESS, the enemy of intimate relationships," says Mr. Gosse, "through my classes at 61 colleges and my books on dating. That battle is now almost unwinnable, due to the wild popularity of social networking. Past generations of shy Americans were FORCED to leave the safety and comfort of their homes and relate to people face-to-face, in order to earn a living, pay their bills, do their banking, or find a romantic partner. Today all can be done online.

"The greatest tragedy," says Mr. Gosse, "is that Anthony Weiner, the poster boy of sick sexual relationships, actually has a wife who loves him and is about to have a child. He has many personal friends. Millions of Americans are far worse off than Representative Weiner. They have almost no personal contact with other human beings. They have hundreds of “friends” on Facebook, but zero intimate relationships."

Rich Gosse is the Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, the world’s largest non-profit singles organization. He is the author of eight books on dating, including Singles Guide to America, The Cougar Imperative: Why MidLife Women MUST Date Younger Men, and A Good Man is EASY to Find. ("This is a great book!" Oprah Winfrey). His expert advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, CNBC, Fox, MSNBC, Oprah, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Cosmopolitan, Business Week, Entrepreneur, The Atlantic, Playboy, Playgirl, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, The London Sunday Times, etc. His websites include www.richgosse.com, www.ThePartyHotline.com, www.SinglesTravelCompany.com, www.CougarEvents.com, and www.SinglesPodcastingNetwork.com.

Mike Bell Featured in the Light Space & Time Artist Showcase


Jupiter, Florida, June 17, 2011 -- Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is very pleased to have Mike Bell from the UK featured in this month’s artist showcase. After a 30 year career teaching and lecturing about Art and Design, Mike took an early retirement in order to concentrate on his painting. Mike’s art is inspired by 30 years of living and working on the Northumberland coast of England and now, most recently in the Wilds of Redesdale near the border of Scotland. Mike has always been fascinated by the patterns of sand on the beach. Random piles of seaweed or driftwood, in Mike’s mind, is order and chaos together and soon becomes an inspiration for his next landscape painting.

“The images that he creates uses a wide variety of materials such as sand, soil, coal dust, and driftwood are often embedded in his paint surfaces.” Mike goes on further and states “I want my paintings to be as natural as possible and rarely do I use a brush but I will use a finger, a knife, a trowel, sand ,plaster, spray paints and lots of builders materials to create impasto paint surfaces.”

Mike has experimented with Holographic Foils in his paintings in order to simulate the wonderful lighting of Northumberland area. Since moving to Redesdale he has been inspired and has become aware of the interaction of man and nature, especially in the area’s wild crags, quarries, moorland and forest to create a wonderful tapestry at different times of year.

Mike states that “rock strata, strange cloud formations, moody sunsets, reflections in rivers and lakes all have me rushing for camera or sketchbook.” The “Land of Far Horizons”, Northumberland has light which enhances the tactile quality of the Landscape no matter what the season. His hope is that his work stimulates a wide range of perception and feelings for this "Land of Far Horizons".
