Energy efficient night covers for refrigerated display cabinets

SHAWNIGAN LAKE, BC November 25, 2007— Western Grocer, a long-established Canadian retail publication, August edition, features Econofrost night covers in “What’s Cool in Cooling.” The article showcases Econofrost as an innovative technology for refrigeration storage systems to help grocers protect their profit margins, leading the way to reduced energy expenditures while maintaining food storage safety, customer satisfaction and profitability.

Western Grocer’s Colleen Stewart announced that sales of Econofrost woven aluminum night covers for refrigerated product display cases are “taking off globally in a big way.” Jamie Orr, key account manager for Econofrost reports that “new installations in perishable food merchandisers are saving more than the full cost of the Econofrost installation in a matter of weeks,” with demonstrated payback periods of three to eighteen months when a store is closed a minimum of 60 hours a week.

How do Econofrost night curtains work? The benefits are accomplished overnight. Made from a woven heat reflective material, Econofrost night covers stabilize cool temperatures in open refrigeration cases to reduce energy losses while a store is closed. Better temperature and humidity control prolongs the shelf life of refrigerated merchandise and decreases the energy load on refrigeration equipment.

Independent laboratory tests have proven direct energy savings of up to 36% during the hours used from lower heating and air conditioning costs. Econofrost night covers can be specified as an option from most manufacturers of commercial refrigeration equipment or ordered for retrofits.

Econofrost has served the supermarket industry since 1975 and made over 250,000 installations in nearly 30 countries. Market Group Ventures, Inc., the parent corporation for Econofrost and Promolux Lighting International, is a world leader in providing retail technology solutions for merchandisers.

UNITED WE SIT

This holiday season, The Dock Downtown is uniting with L.A. Family Housing to welcome families home again. Between November 1 and December 23, for every sofa purchased
at The Dock Downtown, the store will donate a new upholstered chair to a family in need.

The Dock Downtown is a high-end home furnishing retailer located just east of the Artists’ Loft District in downtown Los Angeles. The store sells made-to-order upholstered and wood furniture and overstock designer home furnishings and gifts for up to 80% off retail. Throughout the year, The Dock Downtown is committed to offering well-made, well designed furniture to its customers. But during the holidays, the company is extending that commitment to those who are less fortunate.

Says owner Ali Ferber Peters, “Our business is about helping people make their homes warm, beautiful and comforting. No one needs that more than families transitioning out of homelessness. By offering this promotion, we can partner with our customers to make a real difference. Together we can help local families rebuild their lives.”

The upholstered leather chairs valued at $495 each will be distributed to families through L.A. Family Housing, a community-based nonprofit organization dedicated to aiding homeless families and individuals improve the quality of their lives by providing housing and supportive services.

President of L.A. Family Housing Stephanie Klasky-Gamer elaborates on what the chairs will mean to the program. “When families lose their home, we work hard to help them retain their dignity. Offering them beautiful, new furniture brings the comforts of home to them in our shelters. It is a symbol of respect for the families during a challenging time.”

The Dock Downtown is proud to join L.A. Family Housing in its commitment to social justice and building a better community for all. Now holiday shoppers can join this effort too.

Buy a couch. The Dock Downtown will donate a chair. L.A. Family Housing will give it to a local family in need.

United we stand. And, more importantly, united we sit.

Uri Geller could lay claim to Criss Angel’s $1,000,000.00 challenge on national TV according to paranormalist Dick Brooks, director and head of Houdini Museum.

On Wednesday night November 15th, Criss Angel challenged Uri Geller $1,000,000.00 on the finale of NBC’s nationally televised “Phenomonon” to tell Angel what was in a sealed envelope and then quickly cut Geller off when he appeared to intuitively begin zoning in on it’s content. What was in the sealed envelope were the numbers 911. When Criss Angel (39) asked Geller (60) what was in the envelope Geller for some reason began rattling of dates that unknown to Geller were zoning in on the contents. Uri said Angel was born on the 19th, just 1 day prior to Geller’s birthday. He then said that he had bent his 1st spoon when Angel was 1 (years old.) A nervous Angel, knowing what was in the envelope quickly cut him off, and diverted attention by quickly opening the envelope.

On yet another recent show Angel again challenged co-host Uri Geller as to what was in the envelope. Criss explained “I will give you a million dollars of my personal money right now if … you can tell me specific details of what’s in here right now,” Uri seemed willing to try but the show moved on. Criss never proved that he had, or brought in the million dollars of his personal money.

On that same show Angel also challenged paranormalist Jim Callahan to tell what was in the envelope. An altercation exploded on national television. Callahan later said “I accepted the challenge through the producers of the PHENOMENON show, as well as publicly on the NBC forum”, “The only stipulation I made was that they confirm Angel had the million to pay out on live television as he said he would. I would turn over my prediction to the host to be read before Angel opened his. I assured the producers that if he had the cash I would take it from him on the show live. But alas no proof Angel has a million in liquid assets to pay out as per his contention.”

Dick Brooks, psychic investigator, and a director of the renowned Houdini Museum dedicated to the legendary magician, in Scranton, PA is continuing to follow up on the story as it develops. Dick Brooks is also a nationally known paranormalist, and director of Scranton’s Psychic Theater. He has been called by many a “Supernormalist.” The theater is currently presenting America’s longest running and well reviewed paranormal show and seance. It is a three hour plus evening with experiments in mind control, telepathy, psychokinesis, sightless vision, mentalism that ends with an attempt at recreating an old time seance. The presentation tells the story of the hauntings in the building going back to the Houdini era that were caused by various events that included a murder, suicide, and electrocution. The show explores the pros and cons of such events.

Green California Schools Summit

December 4-6, 2007

Pasadena Conference Center

Pasadena, CA

Suwol Presentation, Wednesday December 5 from 2:00PM to 3:15PM in Room 211.

Title: Healthy Environment = Healthy Children: Creating health & safety through protective policies and legislation. Learn how California Safe Schools (CSS), a nationally celebrated children’s environmental health and justice coalition founded in 1998, successfully spearheaded the most stringent schools pesticide use policy in the nation, Integrated Pest Management (IPM), at the Los Angeles Unified School District. IPM uses low risk methods to eradicate insects, weeds and other pests, eliminating a major source of indoor and outdoor pollution. It was the first in the United States to embrace the “Precautionary Principle” and “Right to Know” about pesticides used on school campuses. The policy led to the Healthy Schools Act 2000 and AB 405, which prohibited the use of experimental pesticides in California schools. Today these policies have become models for school districts and communities internationally.

Attendees will learn how to work with parents, teachers, community members, regulatory agencies, school staffs and local governments to implement IPM in their schools and districts.

Monica Stokes of Laurel, Ms., a 33 year old mother of 3 has been busy writing many manuscripts this year.

In October, she had her first book published, “Poetry For All Occasions”

Immediately following, she released “Fire Within: The Beginning” (a juvenile fiction) Both of these titles can be requested from your local Waldenbooks or Borders book stores, or ordered online from amazon.com

She has 4 more titles that will be released for publication within the next two to three weeks:

“25 Things Women Wish Men Knew”

“I Love God: & I Love My Church” – Children’s Rhyming Religious Verse.

Also one other that she is talking very little about, that will be out within the next year from Publish America.

When asked by resources if she plans on writing any more books within the next year, she replied, “Most definitely, 2 more for sure. I am working on one now. Also I have outline for a sequel to one of my previously completed books.”

When asked what her greatest motivations and inspirations are, she replied, “God and my family. My husband and children are very supportive of me. My little ones really do not understand, but my 12 year old is proud to tell his friends that his mother is an author. He likes to be my first ‘proof-reader’ of each new manuscript.”

New device allows delivery of up to six video signals – from computers, DVD and Blu-ray players, TiVo systems and other consumer electronics – to up to six displays.

Sparta, NJ November 4, 2007 — RTcom USA Inc., provider of digital connectivity solutions for professional and consumer audio-visual and personal computer systems, announced it has developed and is now shipping the industry’s first digital visual interface (DVI) matrix router with full HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) compliance – now making it possible to transmit high definition video signals from up to six sources, including consumer audio-visual products and computers, to as many as six displays at the highest resolution. With the Digital Extender® DS-66HM DVI Matrix Router, video signals from computers and home audio-visual products – such as HD-DVD players, TiVo systems, satellite set top boxes, and Blu-ray disc players – can be sent to up to six displays. The DS-66HM DVI Matrix Router overcame the problem of HDCP encoding, which blocked signals from being transmitted from audio-visual products to multiple displays. This advance, for example, allows users to play multiple DVDs for digital signage, exhibition, or entertainment shows where multiple displays are used, without showing any degradation in the audio-visual signals. “We designed the DS-66HM DVI Matrix Router in response to our users’ requests to allow today’s popular consumer electronics products to be the DVI Matrix Router’s source,” said Joon Ryu, president of RTcom USA. “Signal degradation is a significant problem for A/V routers when joining multiple sources and displays, and RTcom USA just bridged that gap.”

The DS-66HM DVI Matrix Router supports the highest DVI single-link resolution and full matrix routing functions. Among its other features:

- Multiple switching modes, allowing any 6 x 6 select switching, from single input to multiple output ·

- Control options including RS-232C, LAN (TCP/IP), infrared or front panel keys ·

- Resolution support up to 2048 x 1080 at 60Hz, the highest resolution with DVI single link, and 1080p@60Hz with 36 bit color depth. ·

- HDCP compliance at all output channels

- Compliance to DVI V1.0 and HDMI V1.3

- Built-in Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) read function, with Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), to save display EDID data while supporting any HDTV with maximum resolutions. The unit also supports non-Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) resolution, including projectors with unique resolutions. This function is easy to set up by the user. Built-in noise protection circuits in each input and output port.

- Exhibition video display system

- Control of the home theater system

The DS-66HM DVI Matrix Router is available now at an MSRP of $4,999 and can be purchased through Aurora Multimedia at (732) 591-5800 ext. 208.

Learn your rights. The actions a person takes and the statements a person makes prior to and following an arrest can have a huge impact on your case!

1. Most importantly: Remain Silent! If you are being questioned chances are good you are a suspect and they are gathering evidence against you. Law enforcement will offer you encouragement to cooperate and tell you things will go easier on you if you talk to them, however, doing this may put your rights at risk and jeopardize your case! DO NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY!
2. If they read or tell you your Miranda rights, they suspect you have committed a crime. Just as when an officer merely approaches and questions you, you have the right, if you are stopped, to refuse to answer any questions if the answer would tend to incriminate you. Also, if you are only being stopped, you can refuse to allow an officer to search your person. Further, anything you say can be used as evidence against you. Sometimes people think that what they are saying won\’t incriminate them, when in fact, what they say provides a link in a chain of information that could incriminate them.
3. You may be arrested by a police officer who personally saw you violate any state statute, city ordinance or federal law. The law may be a serious crime (a felony) or a lesser offense (a misdemeanor) or when there is a warrant for your arrest, whether or not you are aware of the warrant.
4. If you are arrested, do not argue with or resist the police. Arguing or resisting the police will not help you; it may increase your chances that the police will arrest you and bring criminal charges against you. It probably also will give them grounds to bring even more criminal charges against you, and it may make it harder for you to get out of jail on bail if you are charged. Once officers no longer have grounds to detain you, they should tell you that you are free to go.
5. If you are arrested you have rights that you should be aware of: The right to remain silent and not answer any questions at all; the right to know that if you waive (give up) your right to remain silent and do answer questions, the police can use your answers against you in a court to get you convicted. Even if you begin to answer questions, you have the right to stop answering questions at any time and to speak with an attorney. You have the right to speak privately with an attorney before you answer any questions or sign anything. If you cannot afford an attorney and if the crime for which you have been arrested has jail time as a possible penalty, you have a right to have an attorney appointed for you to represent you at no cost to you before being questioned, and to have that attorney present with you during any questioning to which you may later agree to submit. Remember, you cannot be penalized for refusing to answer an officer’s questions. If you try to cooperate by answering questions while you are being held in police custody, you may create difficulties for your lawyer in defending you later on. ALWAYS ASK TO SPEAK TO A LAWYER. If you find yourself questioned or arrested it is important for you to be aware of your rights. Guilty or innocent, it is important for you to adhere to them in order for your attorney to provide you with the best defense possible.
