TechNavio, a market research leader in the area of Data Centers, recently published its report on the Global Data Center Infrastructure Management Software Market 2010-2014.

London, UK, October 21, 2011 -- TechNavio, a market research leader in the area of Data Centers, recently published its report on the Global Data Center Infrastructure Management Software Market 2010-2014. The report discusses significant trends in the market for the Large Enterprises, SMEs, and Government sectors.

The emerging trend of using virtual network operators for infrastructure services is reducing the market for traditional DCIMS vendors.”

Key findings from the report:

- Increasing Availability of Open Source Infrastructure Management Software

- Limited R&D Activities to Develop Comprehensive DCIM Solution

- Increasing Capabilities and Features being Incorporated into the Software

IAPAM Offers Physicians the Best Botox ® and Other Injectables Education

The IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox ® and Dermal Filler Training provides physicians with all the resources, information and tools to effectively and safely deliver minimally invasive treatments to their patients.

Las Vegas, NV, October 20, 2011 -- Yes, it is hard to believe, but there advertisements for “FDA approved Botox ® at $20 for a 100iu vial.” However, the IAPAM’s Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox ® and Dermal Filler Training provides physicians with all the resources, information and tools to effectively and safely deliver minimally invasive treatments to their patients, including training on how to safely and properly source Botox ®, dermal fillers and other cosmetic injectable products.

Botox buyer beware

Recently, there have a rash of direct mail campaigns for Botox ® from countries like China and India. One recent promotion offered 100iu vials of Botox for $20 USD and 1ml of hyaluronic acid filler for $30 USD. Moreover, the manufacturers claimed that their “products have gotten the approval of FDA.” The IAPAM’s Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox ® Training (http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/botoxtraining) educates physicians on how to identify such schemes. The IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) teaches that “botox®-like” injectables should never be purchased through the internet. The red-flags associated with internet offerings range from unrealistically low pricing to a lack of knowledge regarding the potential side affects that can accompany the administration of a neurotoxin into the body. Also, it’s important to ensure the vial being used is not counterfeit; look for the 3-d hologram to ensure its is the FDA approved product,” says IAPAM executive-director, Jeff Russell.

IAPAM trained physicians are comprehensively educated in all cosmetic injectable outcomes

Physicians should complete a comprehensive, clinical training programs like the IAPAM’s Aesthetic Medicine Symposium or Advanced Botox ® /Dermal Filler Bootcamp, to ensure they are expertly trained in botox ® and other minimally invasive treatments. This translates into ensuring that they are trained in the latest injection techniques, how to safely source Botox ®, dermal fillers and other injectables, and are comfortable with dealing with any possible adverse event due to these procedure. Also, by becoming a member (http://www.iapam.com/aboutiapam/membership) of the IAPAM, physicians are recognized as a member of an internationally accredited aesthetic association.

The IAPAM’s Aesthetic Medicine Symposium training includes:

- dedicated instruction from 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; and

- an environment that does not allow exhibitors, giving doctors more time for education.

For additional information or to register for the next Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox ® training session, please contact the IAPAM, at 1-800-219-5108 ext. 704, email info@theiapam.com or visit http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com/registration.

Zevrix Updates LinkOptimizer for InDesign: Improves Image Handling

Zevrix Solutions announces LinkOptimizer 4.6.3, an update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. Awarded 4 out of 5 starts by Computer Arts magazine, LinkOptimizer allows to reduce InDesign job size and speed up processing by eliminating excess image data, performing essential image adjustments such as color conversion and sharpening, and converting file formats automatically. The new version improves handling of non-proportionally scaled images in InDesign documents.

Toronto (ON), Canada - October 19, 2011 -- Zevrix Solutions today announces the release of LinkOptimizer 4.6.3, a maintenance update to its popular workflow automation solution for Adobe InDesign. LinkOptimizer automates complex image manipulation tasks allowing to significantly reduce the size of InDesign job, save processing time and reduce production costs.

Following its policy of implementing user requests at the earliest opportunity possible, Zevrix released the new update to improve the handling of non-proportionally scaled images in InDesign documents. LinkOptimizer now analyzes such images according to their higher scale value to avoid producing images with potentially insufficient resolution during processing.

"LinkOptimizer makes me extremely happy!", says Nynke Tiekstra, the owner of design studio ColtsfootMedia in Friesland, Netherlands, "It converted 10000 images in a 1800 pages project saving us at least 40 hours work, and it proved to be 100% accurate."

LinkOptimizer works automatically with Adobe Photoshop to eliminate the excess image data of InDesign links, perform essential image adjustments such as color conversion and sharpening, and convert image formats. To optimize the job size, LinkOptimizer automatically reduces the image resolution, scales and crops the images in Photoshop according to their dimensions in the InDesign document and the target resolution specified, and reimports them to InDesign at 100%.

In addition, the software can merge layers and delete hidden ones, run Photoshop actions during processing, ignore specific InDesign layers, and process copies of InDesign documents and links instead of original files. The resulting savings of disk space, time and resources can be dramatic:

-Save gigabytes of disk space.

-Accelerate document printing and exporting.

-Save endless hours - and even days - of optimizing images manually.

-Reduce job turnaround drastically and cut costs through faster processing.

Pricing and Availability:

LinkOptimizer can be purchased from Zevrix website for US$259.95 as well as from authorized resellers (Light version - $179.95). Trial is also available for download. The update is free for LinkOptimizer 4.x users and $98.78 to upgrade from previous versions. LinkOptimizer is available for Mac OS X 10.4.2-10.7, a Universal Binary, and works with Adobe InDesign CS2-CS5.5.

AAA Welcomes Rise in US Alternative Fund Options

A survey that has discovered a rise in the number of alternative funds on offer has been welcomed by Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA), an alternative investment advocacy and research organization.

Boston, MA, USA, October 19, 2011 -- A survey that has discovered a rise in the number of alternative funds on offer has been welcomed by Alternative Asset Analysis (AAA), an alternative investment advocacy and research organization.

The report from Morningstar, which carried out research on mutual funds, has found that there has been an increased appetite for non-traditional investment opportunities. A Morningstar strategist, Nadia Papagiannis, explained, “What investors found out in 2008 was that in times of crisis, credit risk and equity risk are highly correlated.”

The survey found that there are now around 655 alternative style funds in the US, with more than half being exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Several different types of funds are proving more popular with risk averse investors, including long-short funds, in which investors buy stocks, as they would when investing more traditionally.

Those interested in dabbling in commodities and currencies can do so through putting their money in an arbitrage fund, explained Morningstar.

The increase in the number of investment options is simply a response to demand from investors, according to AAA’s analysis partner Anthony Johnson. He said, “People are keen to avoid the risks involved with investing in equities in light of recent scares on the stock markets.”

It’s important for investors to look at all the possibilities when searching for the right kind of alternative investment, particularly now there are so many options, said AAA. Real estate, commodities, currencies, art, antiques and forestry are all options for the forward thinking alternative investor.

Forestry investment firms like Greenwood Management offer individuals the chance to invest as little as £10,000 in timberland in emerging economies like Brazil, where the demand for timber is enormous. Investors receive returns as timber is sold and the whole operation is managed sustainably and therefore offers an ethical investment option.

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.

Biotage Introduces Automated SPE Workstation for Increasing Productivity in Sample Preparation

Biotage® introduced the new RapidTrace®+ SPE Workstation. RapidTrace+ is based on the widely accepted, industry standard RapidTrace platform.

Uppsala, Sweden - October 18, 2011 -- Biotage® (STO: BIOT), a leading manufacturer of tools and technology for analytical and medicinal chemistry, introduced the new RapidTrace®+ SPE Workstation. RapidTrace+ is based on the widely accepted, industry standard RapidTrace platform. The RapidTrace+ is a robust, automated system for quickly developing rugged, reliable Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) methods in regulated pharmaceutical, clinical and forensic laboratories. The powerful, high-throughput system is dedicated specifically for SPE, eliminates bottlenecks and allows users the ability to realize the full benefits of today’s powerful analytical instruments.

RapidTrace+ is fully compatible with 1, 3 and 6 mL SPE columns; offering the greatest flexibility to laboratory SPE formats, including all Biotage ISOLUTE® and EVOLUTE® products. Productivity is increased with a new 5 position rack for 40 mL scintillation vials, allowing for larger sample volumes to be processed. With the Delay Start feature, an operator can schedule specific start and completion times allowing them to return to freshly prepared extracts.

The modular design of the RapidTrace+ allows for up to 10 workstations to be linked and controlled by one computer. In its full modular configuration, these units can process up to 100 samples per hour. Customers have reported a 92% reduction in analyst time and a 72% reduction in extraction time for a 75 sample extraction, compared to a manual vacuum manifold. Modules within a group can process different methods independently, allowing a user to interrupt operation of one module while the remaining units continue to process.

Easy-to-use and intuitive software dramatically increases the speed and reduces the effort involved in method development. Methods are developed in minutes and recalled in seconds; with the ability to insert, delete or modify steps and easily adjust parameters. The methods stored in a RapidTrace+ may also be transferred to other workstations. Additionally, methods can be saved and run concurrently for true, unattended, “multi-method” sample processing.

“We continue to show our leadership in many areas, including sample preparation.” says Toshiyuki Yachi, Vice President of Biotage Marketing. “Over the past several months, Biotage has introduced more tools, more products and more solutions than many of our competitors combined. With the capabilities of the new RapidTrace+, our ability to support customers in their endeavors is substantially improved and we will continue to bring innovative, useful and intelligent tools to support them in the future.”

While advanced analytical techniques like LC/MS/MS and GC/MS are meeting the increasing demand for greater speed and specificity in toxicological screening, conventional sample preparation methods have not kept pace. SPE in particular is an essential step in the analysis of many biomolecules, and has become a throughput limiting factor in many laboratories. The new RapidTrace+ is a result of the collaboration with professionals trying to address this situation.
