Rosendin Electric Receives Certificate of Commendation for Its Safety Record from the Associated General Contractors of America

Rosendin Electric Recognized for Best Practices and Record of Continuous Safety with More than 50,000 Hours without Incident in 2013.

San Jose, CA, USA (July 11, 2014) -- Rosendin Electric, the nation's largest private electrical contractor and an employee-owned company, has been awarded a Certificate of Commendation for its excellent safety record by the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC).

A Certificate of Commendation is given by the AGC to select contractors each year in various categories based on number of hours worked without an incident. Rosendin Electric was awarded a certificate in the category of Associates/Specialty Division with more than 6 million hours worked in 2013. The company reported an incident rate of 1.19 company-wide compared to the Division's average incident rate of 2.23. Rosendin Electric also recorded zero lost workday cases, compared to 0.32 average reported for the Division.

"Our entire work culture is centered on safety, which is why we have had such an outstanding record year after year," said Marty Rouse, CSP, CHST, Vice President of Safety for Rosendin Electric. "We continue to receive recognition for safety best practices on both a regional and national level, and we believe that our outstanding record is just one of the reasons that employees consider Rosendin Electric a great place to work and our customers consider us a great business to work with."

The AGC also recognized Rosendin Electric with other safety awards in 2013, including the First Place National 2013 AGC/Willis Construction Safety Excellence Award, Specialty Division, for contractors with more than one million hours worked. The AGC Oregon-Columbia Chapter recognized the company's Oregon office with a Recognition of Safety Excellence (ROSE) Award in the Specialty Division for more than one million man hours worked. Rosendin Electric's Virginia office received both a Corporate Safety Award from the AGC Metro DC Chapter. The AGC of California awarded Rosendin Electric a Second Place Safety Award of Excellence in the Specialty Division for companies with over one million hours worked.

Biotage Launches ACI™ - Accelerated Chromatographic Isolation

Biotage announces the launch of ACI™ (Accelerated Chromatographic Isolation), a new advance converting simple flash purification into a faster and more economical way to isolate pure compounds.

Uppsala, Sweden (July 10, 2014) -- Biotage (STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, announces the launch of ACI™ (Accelerated Chromatographic Isolation), a new advance converting simple flash purification into a faster and more economical way to isolate pure compounds.

Biotage believes that ACI™ will radically improve the efficiency of the laboratory, embracing the latest developments in purification technology to guide chemists towards improved chromatography. With running costs a concern in most laboratories, ACI™ will efficiently move users to the end-point even faster. Traditional purification taking more than 15 minutes is reduced to 5 minutes; a 250 mg scale laboratory scale experiment can now be purified in less than 3 minutes on a 10 g column with an ACI™ enabled Biotage Isolera™ flash purification system.

"This is a very exciting and pivotal development, the speed enhancements are akin to the impact felt when microwaves first hit the scene. There is nothing out there that comes close to this system. Chemists will now have freedom to work on other things while they let their ACI™ system do the purification. It is fully automated, reliable and lightning fast, we can completely purify 250 mg of sample in less than 3 minutes, this is quicker than most people take to run the TLC" says Dr Sunil Rana, Global Product Manager, Biotage.

Biotage Isolera™ systems already recommend cartridges based on the sample size and programmed TLC data; they work out the best solvent gradient based on compound, and provide real time indication of eluting compounds, using UV, ELSD or Mass Detection. They subtract signal baselines automatically, so chemists can be confident that the correct fractions are collected.

ACI™ radically improves this, working seamlessly with the Biotage Isolera™ system, the simple wizard quickly guides chemists through the system, beneficial for new users or those whose expertise or priorities lie in synthesis rather than purification. Existing Biotage Isolera systems can be upgraded to ACI™ systems, and ACI™ will come as standard on all new production systems.

Eposeidon Set to Rock the Fishing World at ICAST in Orlando July 16-18

Eposeidon showcases their lineup of exciting new KastKing fishing rods at booth 1702 along with KastKing fishing reels, Ecooda reels and MadBite lures introduced for 2014.

Hempstead, Long Island, NY (July 8, 2014) -- Eposeidon Outdoor Adventure, Inc. (http://www.eposeidon.com) will rock the fishing tackle world at the 2014 ICAST (International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades) set to take place July 16 through 18 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. Located at booth 1702 will be Eposeidon's array of the company's latest fishing reels from their KastKing and Ecooda reel division, KastKing fishing lines, and lures from the MadBite division.

Eposeidon, which has been stunning anglers since its introduction of high quality braided fishing line selling for a fraction of the price of other brands, is making strong headway in other areas of the fishing tackle industry.

Eposeidon, which is also the exclusive North American distributor of Ecooda fishing reels, introduced 6 new spinning reel models from their KastKing product line in the first half of 2014 including the KastKing Blade, Orcas, and Triton - all featuring carbon fiber drag washers as standard equipment, 5 new models of low profile baitcasters, and 10 models of their new RXA conventional baitcaster.

"Through our exacting manufacturing, quality control, purchasing and shipping practices we have successfully been able to deliver top quality products at a selling price that is so low it baffles some buyers," says Tate Cui CEO at Eposeidon, Inc.. "With our sophisticated supply chain management and a strong belief to let more people enjoy fishing, Eposeidon continues bringing great affordable products and more fun to the fishing community."

"We were already strong in international sales and now we are making tremendous progress in the U.S. market. Our products enjoy positive reviews and the price point has spurred sales beyond our expectations," says Tom Gahan, Eposeidon's Marketing Director. "Three key elements make up our brand - high quality, low price for retail and wholesale buyers, and free or low cost shipping. These essential components have allowed us to move forward swiftly."

Eposeidon will have a special wholesale dealer program in place at the 2014 ICAST show that allows qualified buyers to place a minimum order at a discount that is usually reserved for much larger product stock orders. The offer includes free shipping. Buyers need to visit Eposeidon at booth 1702 to place their order.

"We want buyers to have the ability to try out our products on a small scale order, even if it is only just one piece so that they can experience our quality and customer service," added Cui.

Eposeidon Introduces KastKing Orcas Spinning Reels

A powerful spinning reel with unique features in a lightweight package makes its debut.

Hempstead, Long Island, NY (July 1, 2014) -- Eposeidon Outdoor Adventure's KastKing™ division has introduced a new fishing reel, the KastKing™ Orcas, for anglers who are looking for a lightweight but heavy duty spinning reel option.

Named after the killer whales, Orcas, one of the world's most powerful predators, the KastKing™ Orcas Spinning Reels are built to withstand the effects of rugged environments.

KastKing™ Orcas are constructed with a solid aluminum body made from a special lightweight aluminum alloy that is 18% lighter than the usual aluminum reel body alloys.

Orca's 12 + 1 shielded stainless steel ball bearings, stainless steel main shaft, and CNC machined aluminum spool and handle combine to create a saltwater ready spinning reel. It also has a unique reinforced carbon fiber spool skirt with a PLS (Power Launch Spool) power casting lip to keep its weight down and performance up. The PLS (Power Launch Spool) design allows farther, tangle free casting.

KastKing™ Orcas deliver 26.5 lbs/12 kg of drag on the 1000 and 2000 series and 30 lbs/ 14 kg of drag on the 3000 and 4000 size Orcas.

The current MSRP for KastKing™ Orcas, finished in a red salmon and black color scheme, are in the $60.00 range. It is available in 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 series sizes.

"These fantastic numbers are made possible through Orcas' smooth performing triple disc carbon fiber drag washers. It far out performs other brands of equal size," says Tate Cui, CEO at Eposeidon. "We believe that carbon fiber drag washers offered as original equipment that deliver such tremendous stopping power add great value to the KastKing Orcas. In this price range it is unbeatable."

"Orcas are the perfect name for these reels. They are exceptionally powerful for their size," says Tom Gahan Marketing Director at Eposeidon. "We see these reels in the hands of anglers who want solid power in a lighter package. Its special alloy body allows that. They range from only 9.7 ounces/ 275 gram for the 1000 and up to only 11.9 ounces/ 340 grams for a 4000. Kayak fishers will enjoy its light weight feature."

New 1 mL ISOLUTE® SLE+ 48-well Plates from Biotage - Extract Larger Sample Volumes, Faster

Biotage announces the launch of the new ISOLUTE® SLE+ 1 mL Supported Liquid Extraction 48-well plates, enabling the extraction of larger sample volumes (1 mL total load volume) than presently possible in the microplate footprint.

Uppsala, Sweden (June 30, 2014) -- Biotage (STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, announces the launch of the new ISOLUTE® SLE+ 1 mL Supported Liquid Extraction 48-well plates, enabling the extraction of larger sample volumes (1 mL total load volume) than presently possible in the microplate footprint.

The new ISOLUTE® SLE+ 1 mL sample volume 48-well plates are packed with ISOLUTE SLE+ material; each well containing sufficient ISOLUTE® SLE+ material to efficiently extract 1 mL of aqueous sample. Existing 96-well formats have a maximum capacity of 400 µL, the new plates enable customers to extract larger sample volumes and therefore achieve higher sensitivity, higher throughput and lower detection limits.

The new plates are ideal for the extraction of small molecule drugs, metabolites and endogenous biomarkers from biological fluid samples prior to analytical techniques such as LC-MS/MS and GC-MS. Analytical chemists in clinical, forensic toxicology and Pharmacology will appreciate the high throughput and extra sample capacity.

As with the other products in the ISOLUTE® SLE+ range, the same simple load-wait-elute procedure is used with this new 48-well format reducing method development time.

The plates can be processed using microplate compatible positive pressure manifolds, such as the Biotage® Pressure+ 96, vacuum manifolds such as the Biotage® VacMaster™ 96 and most automated liquid handling systems.

The plate is arranged in a 6 x 8 array; with 48 samples being processed per plate a higher throughput than equivalent column formats is achievable. A new compatible 48-well collection plate is also available with a 5 mL capacity so that the entire elution solvent volume can be collected with no need to swap collection vessels.

New CIR Report States that Sales of Active Optical Cables for the Data Center To Reach $1.5 billion

According to a new report from Communications Industry Researchers, sales of active optical cables (AOCs) for the data center will produce $1.5 billion in revenues by 2019.

Charlottesville, VA, USA (June 27, 2014) -- According to a new report from Communications Industry Researchers, sales of active optical cables (AOCs) for the data center will produce $1.5 billion in revenues by 2019. The report "Active Optical Cable Markets - Data Center Applications," is part of a two-volume set. CIR has also recently published an analysis and forecast of the market for AOCs for applications in personal computing, consumer electronics and digital signage.

More details about this report can be found at: http://www.cir-inc.com/reports/active-optical-cable-markets-and-opportunities-2014-to-2024-volume-i-data-c.

About the report:

This report identifies and quantifies opportunities for selling AOCs for the data center. AOCs in this sector carry Ethernet, InfiniBand (IB), Fibre Channel and SAS. Specifically, the report provides coverage on AOCs supporting the CX4, SFP/SFP+, QSFP, CXP, CFP, CDFP, and SAS/Min-SAS MSAs. In addition, the report provides detailed nine-year forecasts of data center AOC markets, with breakouts by end-user application, interface standard, cable lengths, type of cable and wavelength. Forecasts are provided in units shipped and revenue terms.

This new CIR study also assesses the product/market strategies of the leading AOC suppliers including: 3M, 10GTEK, A3CUBE, Amphenol, Avago, Brocade, Centera Photonics, ConnPro, Eoptolink, FCI, Fiberon, Finisar, Fujikura, Gigalight, Fujitsu, Hitachi Cable, IBM, InnoLight, JDSU, Juniper Networks, Luxtera, Mellanox, Molex, Multilane, Samtec, Siemon, Sopto, Sumitomo, TE Connectivity, Volex.

From the report:

Data centers are getting bigger and are requiring much higher data-rate pipes and interconnects than ever before. Mobile broadband and video applications are flooding data centers with content and this creates a growing incentive to shift to fiber in at least part of the data center. It is becoming increasingly difficult for data center managers to avoid fiber optics and at the same time AOCs offer an excellent entry point for fiber optics to all but the most structured-cabling savvy network managers.

Chinese AOC suppliers are showing that they can compete with the best U.S., European and Japanese AOC suppliers. They are now able to supply 40 Gbps cables with ease and a few are offering 100-Gbps AOCs. A few years back CIR would have seen the whole optical engine concept as beyond the capabilities of Chinese suppliers. But today Gigalight is using optical engines as the basis for its optical data center products, and other Chinese firms are expected to follow suit.

The Chinese AOC challenge will require a strategic response from established AOC firms. This could take the form of better branding, improved supply chains or upgraded products. For example, the TE Connectivity line was upgraded in 2011 with 40-Gbps products that offered reduced power consumption and lighter-weight cables and other leading AOC firms will follow suit.

We also expect to see more activity in AOCs that use the highest-performance modules. Such AOCs are not easy to make and this presents barriers to entry into the data center markets for smaller, less able AOC firms; providing market protection for the largest suppliers. The markets for such high-end AOCs are also not inconsiderable. CFP and CDFP together are expected to generate $190 million in revenues by 2019. Indeed, we think that the proverbial "next big thing" in the AOC space will be CDFP AOCs and expect to see such products prominently displayed at the OFC, ECOC and SC trade shows in 2015. For now, the three companies to watch in this space are Finisar, Molex and TE Connectivity, all of which have already introduced CDFP AOCs.

Nonetheless, throughout the period considered in this report, the "workhorse" QSFP and CXP AOCs will be the biggest revenue earners, with combined sales of $1.3 billion in 2019. These MSAs support both the Ethernet and IB protocols that are core to any data center and at data rates that are likely to be the ones most used in data centers over the next decade. The earliest QSFP AOCs catered to the 10-Gbps market, but the QSFP AOC business is now centered around the 40-Gbps opportunity. CXP can support 100 GigE or three 40-GigE channels. At this point almost every firm offering a range of AOCs includes CXP options.

About CIR:

Communications Industry Researchers has been publishing hype-free industry analysis for the optical networking industry for almost 25 years. We have provided market coverage of Active Optical Cables (AOCs) for six years. Our annual reports on this topic are widely regarded as the most authoritative market forecast and technology assessment in the AOC space.

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery Chooses Submittable

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is pleased to announce they have chosen Submittable, the online submission platform, to receive and administer the gallery's art competition submissions.

Jupiter, FL, USA (June 26, 2014) -- Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is pleased to announce they have chosen Submittable, the online submission platform, to receive and administer the gallery's art competition submissions. This change will become effective July 1, 2014.

Submittable is an international online platform that provides administrative processing of entries for art organizations. Submittable provides these services for most creatives, specializing in writing, film-making, art, photography and grants.

Based in Montana, Submittable was founded in 2009. Presently, they provide administrative services to more than 7,000 organizations. Their website is http://www.submittable.com.

John R. Math, Gallery Director of Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery explains the rationale for this change. "As our online art competitions have become more popular and are now on a large international scale, we want the artists who compete to have their entries administered 24 hours a day. The Submittable platform provides this function efficiently for us".

Math goes on to say, "We have wanted to upgrade our entry system. In Submittable we've found a simple and effective method for artists to participate in our future competitions. In addition, the platform will allow the gallery to employ guest judges and eliminate the server and upload problems that sometimes occur close to the entry deadline".

Math, continues, "With Submittable's easy registration (Name and Email Address Only), any artist who registers will be able to access any of their entries, as well as be registered automatically for any other competitions on the Submittable platform. We are very excited about these changes. We believe our artist participants will see the immediate benefits of using the Submittable entry platform".

Actyl Group Assists Employers After Ban Lifted on TFW Program for Fast Food Restaurants

Company's team is well trained in the new changes made by Citizenship & Immigration Canada.

REGINA, Saskatchewan (June 22, 2014) -- In the wake of a recent overhaul of Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP), international workforce solutions firm Actyl Group has trained its staff on all of the new rules and regulations associated with the program.

The broad changes, announced June 20, are intended to prevent abuse and make it more difficult for employers to hire workers from outside the country. As part of these efforts, businesses and organizations in high-unemployment regions will not be allowed to bring in temporary foreign workers, and there will be caps placed on the number of TFWs employers across the country can hire. The ban on TFWs for fast food businesses, however, has been lifted.

"Although these recent changes to the TFWP in Canada will make it more difficult for employers to leverage it, there are still many opportunities to find, recruit and hire skilled workers," said Linda West, president and CEO of Actyl. "Our firm has been able to project these changes and is ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest updates imposed by the federal government. As a result, our team is very well positioned to help businesses with both domestic and international worker recruitment."

While the TFWP will still exist, there will also be a new category created called the International Mobility Program. Changes to the overall program include an increase in the number of inspections to 25 percent of all organizations using the TFWP each year. There will also be an increase in the application fee to $1,000 per worker requested, up from $250 previously.

In addition, businesses found to be abusing the program will have to pay a fine of up to $100,000, and the Canada Border Services Agency will receive more funding to pursue criminal investigations against potential abusers. Employers with TFWs on staff will also be listed in public records.

"Because of this recent overhaul, businesses with temporary foreign workers must make sure that they are in full compliance with the law," said West. "Actyl has been the first recruitment firm to train its staff on these changes, and we know how to effectively and legally help you find and manage the skilled workers who will allow your business grow and thrive."

Actyl Group is a widely respected firm that helps its clients create workforce solutions customized to their specific needs. The company has decades of industry expertise and experience, providing Canadian businesses and organizations with the best immigration solutions and job candidates.
