Relaxation Is Essential to Your Health, Well-Being and Ultimate Happiness According to New TurboCharged Hypnosis Series

Upgraded Website for TurboCharged™ Program Now Live.

NEW YORK - February 28, 2012 -- According to authors Dian Griesel, Ph.D. and Tom Griesel, hypnosis is a powerful technique that anyone can use to implement positive personal changes quickly and almost effortlessly. The Griesels are the brother-sister team behind the groundbreaking TurboCharged 8-step program, which was launched in spring 2011 and defies common weight-loss theories.

The Griesels today unveiled an upgraded version of TurboCharged.us.com, a website through which readers can access a variety of resources keyed to the TurboCharged program for rapid fat loss and optimal health.

The new website, which has been optimized for easier navigation, features an online store where customers will be able to purchase all three TurboCharged books in print form as well as Kindle and Nook downloads:

• TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (BSH, 2011)
• The TurboCharged Mind: Eliminate Bad Habits with Hypnosis (BSH, 2012)
• The TurboCharged Recipe Book (BSH, forthcoming)

Visitors to the website can also access a series of downloads that offer ideal guided meditations to support and direct self-hypnosis sessions for faster fat loss, a shapelier body and greater health.

“All hypnosis is self-hypnosis, and it can be learned and experienced by anyone,” explains Dian Griesel, a certified hypno-therapist, who is heard on the audio downloads. “It is magical in many ways, because it enables your brain to slow down and enter the alpha range, which is where dreams occur. Hypnosis allows you to go into the realm of relaxed, altered consciousness-the daydreaming state-so you can make your self-directed dreams become realities.”

She adds, “Like daydreaming, hypnosis is a perfectly normal, safe and healthy phenomenon. The only real difference between hypnosis and fantasizing or daydreaming is that in a state of hypnosis, your mind is directed to specific beneficial goals you wish to achieve.”

“Hypnosis can aid greatly in assisting you to create a happier, more peaceful and more productive life,” says Tom Griesel. “Basically, it is for anyone who would benefit from some additional rest and relaxation.”

The upgraded website also features a new active forum with periodic visits by Dian Griesel and Tom Griesel, a new daily blog by the Griesels and a daily news portal to stories on diet and nutrition.

The site currently offers a complimentary download called The TurboCharged® Mind Beginner Meditation. It is a beginner-directed meditation designed to help introduce listeners to the power of self-hypnosis, guided meditation and subsequent relaxation. The link to the free audio can be found at: http://turbocharged.us.com/store/

Feature topics in the series for purchase in the TurboCharged store will include: Beginner Meditation, Seeing the Prize and Your New Lean Body, Energy Meditation: Access Your Own Unique Power.

The new site was designed by Carla Rood, CEO of Polus Digital, Inc., a branding and marketing firm located in Manhattan. With a core belief that “good branding makes for easy marketing,” her company provides clients with a holistic approach to growing their business. These services include brand development, web design, presentation design, social media, and online marketing. To learn more, visit http://www.polusdigitial.com.

NanoMarkets Projects Substantial Growth Potential for Smart Coatings in PV Applications

NanoMarkets announces the release of its latest report on materials for the photovoltaics industry, "Smart Coatings in PV Applications 2012." NanoMarkets estimates that the total market for transparent conductors (TCs) in PV will exceed $450 million ($US) in 2017, up from a value of under $12 million in 2012.

Glen Allen, Virginia - February 27, 2012 -- Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets announces the release of its latest report on materials for the photovoltaics industry, "Smart Coatings in PV Applications 2012." NanoMarkets estimates that the total market for transparent conductors (TCs) in PV will exceed $450 million ($US) in 2017, up from a value of under $12 million in 2012.

This report analyzes the opportunities for smart coatings in PV applications, with a focus on the four types of smart coatings poised to bring the most value to the PV sector: self-cleaning, self-repairing, electrochromic, and thermochromic coating systems. The report also discusses the strategies of some of the important and emerging suppliers or users of smart coating including: Almaden, Cardinal Glass, Gentex, Lotus Leaf Coatings, nanoShell, Nippon Glass, Nissan, Peer+, Pilkington/AGC, PPG, SAGE, Saint-Gobain, Soladigm, and others.


NanoMarkets has recently released related photovoltaics reports in the areas of BIPV glass, transparent conductors and CIGS.

From the Report:

While NanoMarkets sees the overall PV market slowing and facing future uncertainty, the firm believes that PV makers can improve their competitive position and growth prospects by looking to smart coatings that can improve basic PV performance and provide value-added functionality.

The integration of some kinds of smart coatings, especially self-cleaning ones, can cost-effectively increase conversion efficiencies, which have a direct and measurable affect on cost-per-watt. According to NanoMarkets’ new report, self-cleaning coatings are expected to almost $150 million in annual revenue from the PV sector by 2017.

Other, more sophisticated (and higher value) smart coatings can provide additional functionality that enables PV panel makers to create “premium” products and differentiate themselves in a rapidly commoditizing, and homogenizing, marketplace. These added functionality coatings include dimmable or “switchable” electrochromic, thermochromic, and related coating systems. Electrochromic systems are a natural fit for BIPV and advanced BIPV/smart window applications. Electrochromics in PV are predicted to generate over $190 million in annual revenue by 2017.

About NanoMarkets:

NanoMarkets tracks and analyzes emerging market opportunities in energy, electronics and other markets created by developments in advanced materials. The firm is a recognized leader in industry analysis and forecasts of this kind and has been covering the photovoltaics sector for more than six years.

Missing from the Presidential Debate: Long-Term Care

Two Candidates Respond to National Survey but Many Remain Silent on How to Support Older Adults and Individuals with Disabilities Who Need Care at Home.

Washington, D.C., February 26, 2012 -- Every day, over 10 million frail seniors, younger people with disabilities, and their families struggle to find and pay for long-term care to stay independent and remain at home, and the need for care is expected to grow to over 15 million Americans by 2020.

Yet, the issue of long-term care has been completely absent from this year’s presidential campaign. No questions have been asked during the debates. The candidates have not posted any views or positions on their websites, and only two candidates have responded to a national survey on their views to address this growing national challenge.

Long-term care helps older adults and individuals with disabilities manage everyday activities, such as dressing, bathing, using the bathroom, preparing meals, and taking medication.

While these home care services are cost-effective and help people stay independent and out of expensive nursing homes, they are not covered by traditional health insurance. Medicare does not cover them, and only 3% of adults have private long-term care insurance.

Medicaid offers some coverage for long term care, but individuals must spend-down and impoverish themselves to qualify - often exhausting a lifetime of savings. Waiting lists also have doubled over the past decade, with some states cutting home and community-based services to trim budgets.

As a result, over 90% of all long-term services provided today are delivered informally by more than 42.1 million family members. These caregivers often face enormous burdens, adversely affecting their health, ability to work, and financial security.

To help raise this critical issue among the presidential candidates, 15 national aging and disability organizations, including the National Council on Aging (NCOA), invited each candidate to answer five questions about their views on long-term care. The questionnaire was distributed in November to all major candidates for President, regardless of political party affiliation.

So far, only two presidential candidates-Barack Obama and Newt Gingrich-have responded to the questionnaire. The five questions and responses received to date are available at http://www.ncoa.org/LTSSsurvey.

“The number of Americans needing long-term care is expected to double in the coming decade as the population ages,” said James Firman, NCOA president & CEO. “Clearly, this is an issue that cannot be ignored. Voters deserve to hear the candidates engage in a dialogue about an issue so central to the future of our country and the lives of millions of individuals and families.”

About NCOA
The National Council on Aging is a nonprofit service and advocacy organization headquartered in Washington, DC. NCOA’s mission is to improve the lives of millions of older adults, especially those who are vulnerable and disadvantaged. NCOA is a national voice for older Americans and the community organizations that serve them. It brings together nonprofit organizations, businesses, and government to develop creative solutions that improve the lives of all older adults. NCOA works with thousands of organizations across the country to help seniors find jobs and benefits, improve their health, live independently, and remain active in their communities.

FPL Engineer Shares Love of Engineering with Under-Served Youth

“It’s important to me to be able to give back to my community by promoting science and engineering fields to children who have limited exposure to them,” said FPL Production Assurance Engineer Melanie Roger. “If I can help get young children interested in the sciences and have a desire to enter into the field, than I feel as though I've been successful. We should all do our part in ensuring the success of our future leaders.”

Juno Beach, FL, February 25, 2012 -- Florida Power & Light's Melanie Roger has a passion for her profession.

As a young girl, she dreamed of going into medicine, like her parents. It wasn't until she got to college, at the University of South Florida, that she decided to change course. Roger switched her major to engineering, hoping it would help her “stand out” among the other medical school candidates. During her course of study, she discovered this was her true love.

“It taught me a different way to think and how to solve a problem using numerous methods,” Roger said. “I want to share that with others.”

As a Production Assurance Engineer at Florida Power and Light’s Lauderdale combined cycle plant, Roger enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for engineering with the youth of her community. She volunteers with a group called SECME - the Southeastern Consortium of Minorities in Engineering. It’s a national organization that seeks to prepare under-served or under-represented students for careers in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.

“It’s important to me to be able to give back to my community by promoting science and engineering fields to children who have limited exposure to them,” said Roger. “If I can help get young children interested in the sciences and have a desire to enter into the field, than I feel as though I've been successful. We should all do our part in ensuring the success of our future leaders.”

This month, Roger got a chance to share her passion for engineering with students from 55 schools throughout Palm Beach County. She served as a judge at the annual SECME Olympiad - a competition that’s the result of a year’s worth of study, experimentation and creativity.

This year students squared off at Santaluces High School in Boynton Beach on Feb. 11. The Olympiad theme, “Plan It, Live It, Build It” featured a wide variety of hands-on activities and competitions that included a “Brain Bowl” - a trivia-like game that pits students against the clock and one another, to answer science-related questions. The students also competed against one another to see who could design the strongest wooden bridge, the fastest “mousetrap car” (propelled by a spring through a mousetrap), and the highest-flying water bottle rocket. Other competitions included creating essays, poems, banners and posters for the event.

Roger joined several other FPL engineers as a volunteer judge. “It was so energizing to see how excited the kids were about participating in the Brain Bowl,” she said.

Roger advises students that pursuing a career in engineering can be challenging, but she says it is also very rewarding. She encourages students to feed their curiosity and never stop learning. “Perseverance always prevails,” she says.

About Florida Power & Light Company
Florida Power & Light Company is the largest electric utility in Florida and one of the largest rate-regulated utilities in the United States. FPL serves 4.5 million customer accounts in Florida and is a leading employer in the state with approximately 10,000 employees.

NBA Fans Sure That Jeremy Lin Is For Real; In China, Thousands of His Jerseys Are Not

Stony Brook, NY (February 25, 2012) -- It took only 10 days for New York Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin to move from unknown Harvard grad to international, cover-of-Sports Illustrated sensation. That sent New York Times reporters scurrying downtown to discover whether the sharp-eyed basketball phenom had been paid the highest compliment: whether products associated with him, like jerseys and shoes, had been counterfeited and were being sold on the city’s notorious counterfeit black market on Canal Street.

But in China, it’s a completely different story. Counterfeiters in China have stepped up. Can it be a surprise then, that on Wednesday, NY Times article reported from Hangzhou, China that counterfeiting there had already been going great guns? “His jerseys have sold out, even including the counterfeit ones,” said Zheng Xiaojun, a 24-year-old clerk in the capital of Zhejiang province, the home of Lin’s distant relatives according to claims in the People’s Republic. While appreciative of the clerk’s honesty, at the time the article was written there were no “Lin jerseys,” so all the articles in the store were counterfeits-known as jiade, or “fake” in Chinese.

Is there any solution to this global wave of sports clothes fakery?

The phenomenon may seem a classic case of ‘too big to solve, too distant to care.’ But in fact that’s far from the case” says Applied DNA Sciences of Stony Brook, NY, which is already authenticating cotton in the U.S. and wool from the U.K.

Applied DNA is actively involved in the global effort to ensure the authenticity of products and the protection of global supply chains from counterfeiting and diversion. Patented and applied in over a billion products throughout the world, the company’s SigNature® DNA markers are unique, botanical, “green” DNA sequences that can help preserve the quality and integrity of products ranging from pharmaceutics to cosmetics. DNA authentication takes on the big jobs by authenticating the legitimate product, instead of identifying every fake. That is a flexible and eminently practical way of handling the biggest global housecleaning jobs.

APDN sells patented DNA security solutions to protect products, brands and intellectual property from counterfeiting and diversion.
