DÜRR NDT Releases Hi-Res Wireless Flat Panel Detector for Industrial Radiography

Bietigheim-Bissingen, Germany, October 13, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The extremely robust new DRC 2430 NDT flat panel detector has been specially developed for maximum portability and the harsh conditions of field radiography and can also be used with both X-rays and gamma sources.

The heavy duty one-piece aluminum housing ensures maximum protection against the external environment with the unit being both dust-tight and waterproof (IP67 classification according to IEC 60529).

Images produced by the DRC 2430 NDT feature both excellent contrast and industry-leading high resolution owing to the 76 μm pixel pitch. The active area of ​​23.3 x 29.1 cm and wide operating temperature range of 0 to 45 °C make the DRC 2430 NDT suitable for a large variety of inspection tasks and outdoor environments.

Wireless data transmission takes place via an in-built WLAN access point (802.11n @ 5.2 GHz) and so no additional hardware is required to connect the detector to a WLAN-capable PC or local wireless network. The detector can of course also be used in a wired configuration via the Gigabit Ethernet network connection and optionally with a power supply. An integrated display provides a summary of the device status, including the current network configuration and battery state.

The supplied high-performance lithium batteries provide an operating time of up to 4 hours, allowing hundreds of shots per charge, thus avoiding unnecessary workflow interruptions. The battery charge level can also be read anytime directly on the battery itself via LED indicators.

The weight of just 3.2 kg makes the DRC 2430 NDT one of the lightest and most powerful industrial flat panel detectors in the NDT market.

The accompanying D-Tect X-Ray inspection software fully supports the DRC 2430 NDT and provides necessary functions such as defect pixel mask creation as well as offset and gain calibration. Core functionality for image acquisition, analysis and reporting is of course provided within D-Tect, and in addition, DICONDE-compliant image data enables cross-system data exchange.

San Francisco, CA, October 13, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Some six months after publishing a list of the top 20 learning management systems (LMSs), the network-based media and publishing company, eLearning Industry, has updated the list to take account of market and technological developments.

This has meant producing two lists of LMSs – covering cloud-based LMSs and Open-Source LMSs.

Now heading the list of cloud-based LMSs are:
· Docebo
· Adobe Captivate Prime
· Litmos LMS
· iSpring Learn
· Talent LMS

The top Open-Source LMSs are said to be:
· Moodle
· Chamilo
· Totara Learn
· Canvas
· Open edX

In all, eLearning Industry’s user research has resulted in 20 LMSs being named as the learning technology industry’s current "Top LMSs."

Illustrating the LMS sector’s volatility – notably in the light of recent software advances – only eight of these names featured in the previous list. They are, in alphabetical order, Docebo, iSpring Learn, Litmos, Looop, Moodle, Open edX, Talent LMS and Totara Learn.

New entries on the list are – alphabetically - (cloud-based LMSs) 360 Learning LMS, Absorb LMS, Administrate LMS, Adobe Captive Prime, Gnosis Connect, Kallidus Learn, Knowledge Anywhere LMS, Skyprep LMS, The Academy LMS, Thought Industries, and (Open-Source LMSs) Canvas and Chamilo.

These placings result from analysing the LMS reviews submitted to eLearning Industry in its capacity as the world’s largest online community of e-learning professionals.

Christopher Pappas, owner and founder of eLearning Industry commented, “Each of the user reviews has been verified – to make sure it’s a genuine review by a genuine user of that particular LMS.

“In addition to publishing the ‘league table’ of the top 20 LMSs, the eLearning Industry site makes these reviews available to readers – so that they can check our reasoning for themselves. We believe that this makes the whole process as transparent as possible.”

According to research specialists, MarketsandMarkets, the LMS market is expected to be worth over $15.72bn in 2021, with the majority of this revenue being generated in North America.

“The continuing development of the LMS is a key factor in revolutionising the way businesses regard knowledge and skill acquisition,” Christopher Pappas continued. “Yet, there are so many LMSs on the market – over 1,000 at the last count – each offering, or claiming to offer, a significantly different set of product features.

“Consequently, the task of finding the right one can prove to be difficult. The eLearning Industry list identifies the best solutions the LMS market has to offer, according to our site’s many readers. Their helpful analysis of LMSs in practical situations can help others address their needs – and the needs of their organisation’s learners.”

This updated LMS list also points to other, specialist advice and guidance on LMSs by eLearning Industry. This includes lists of the top Extended Enterprise LMSs, Customer Training LMSs, LMSs offering an LMS Demo, and LMSs offering free trials

“Those looking for the most appropriate LMS should check out our new Free eBook, ‘Successful Learning Management System Implementation’ to discover contributions from the top LMS experts,” Christopher concluded.

The list of the current Top 20 LMSs is available via eLearning Industry’s website.

NordVPN: Seniors Are One of the Most Vulnerable Groups to Online Threats and Scams

$

0

Panama City, Panama, October 13, 2018 --(PR.com)-- On October 1st, the world celebrated the International Day of Older Persons, initiated by the United Nations. It is estimated that there are almost 700 million people over the age of 60 worldwide, and this number is growing every year.

Scammers use technology to target older people because they often aren’t well informed on online security. According to the FBI’s data released this year, older adults lost $342 million to scam in 2017. On average, each victim suffered a loss of nearly $7,000, which could have bought them a 2-week trip abroad for two.

NordVPN’s digital privacy expert Daniel Markuson provides some tips on how older adults can stay safe online.

Top tips to keep seniors safe online

Find trusted support. If you get any notifications or calls about viruses on your computer, it might be fraud. Use only official support services or consult someone you know and trust. Technical support scam is the fourth most popular scam in the United States and gaining in popularity worldwide.

Be careful on public WiFi. Found free WiFi at a restaurant or cafe? Enjoy it! Just don’t log into your personal accounts or online banking – that makes it easy for hackers to steal your sensitive data. Additionally, use a VPN (or Virtual Private Network), like NordVPN, for an extra layer of protection. It will protect your devices and online activities from online snoopers.

Use strong passwords. Use longer phrases or words with numbers and don’t share your login details with anyone. Do your best to use different passwords for different accounts. What is more, always protect all of your devices with passwords.

Email safety first. The first rule: ignore urgent email requests, especially from senders you don’t know. If an email is asking you to take immediate action, it’s probably fraud. Don’t reply to such messages, don’t click on links or buttons, and don’t download any attachments. Remember, a legitimate business will never ask you to send sensitive information over the email.

Protect your money. Don’t send money to people you don’t know over the Internet. When shopping online or doing online banking, make sure the checkout address starts with HTTPS – the S is for “secure.” All those scammy letters claiming you won a zillion or a new iPhone are surely fake.

About NordVPN
NordVPN is the world’s most advanced VPN service provider that is more security oriented than most VPN services. It offers double VPN encryption, ad blocking & Onion Over VPN. The product is very user-friendly, offers one of the best prices on the market, has over 5,000 servers worldwide and is P2P friendly. One of the key features of NordVPN is zero log policy.

$

Fairfax, VA, October 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- 321 Web Marketing, a Northern VA insurance marketing agency, recently published a blog post educating readers on SEO for insurance firms. Understanding the basics of SEO can help insurance firms increase their client base and revenue over time.

SEO, or search engine optimization, helps search engines find your website when people type certain terms into the search bar. You can place frequently-searched terms into the body text, URLs, and meta tags of your website to increase the chances that your site will appear on the front page of search results for those terms. Sites that appear on the first page can appear more credible to users, who often consider the first page of results to be the most relevant. It can also increase traffic to your website, customer conversion, brand familiarity, and more. SEO ultimately helps your insurance firm become more profitable by helping more potential customers find your website.

There are several steps to creating an SEO strategy, but a basic overview includes the following steps. First, it is important to research the keywords that people typically use when they search for insurance and the audience you would like to target. Next, place those keywords in strategic locations throughout your website, such as within the headers and near the top of blog posts. Then, make sure that all of the links are working properly and submit the site to various directories, which can help increase its search rankings.

SEO is a complex process, and to receive the most effective results it may be helpful to speak with an insurance marketing agency for more information and to schedule a free consultation. 321 Web Marketing conducts thorough research into the goals, industry, ideal client base, and competitive landscape of each client. This helps the agency develop a customized marketing plan specifically designed to meet their needs. 321 Web Marketing continues to monitor the progress of each marketing campaign after it has been launched, allowing its team of skilled marketers to make any changes necessary to ensure success.

Fairfax Digital Marketing Agency Educates On Northern Virginia SEO

Fairfax, VA, October 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- 321 Web Marketing, a Fairfax digital marketing agency, recently released a blog post educating readers on how SEO can help their Northern Virginia-area businesses succeed. Taking advantage of local SEO makes businesses stand out in crowded locales.

Organic SEO is the process of optimizing your website so that it appears naturally in search results. Proper optimization can help your site appear higher in those search results, a significant benefit. Many people do not click past the first page of results, as they consider this page to contain the most relevant choices to their query. Appearing on this page can make your site look more credible and drive more traffic to it, increasing the likelihood that you will attract new clients. SEO is particularly helpful in Northern Virginia, as the high concentration of businesses in the area make it difficult to stand out without high-performing SEO.

Properly optimizing your website is a multi-step process. In addition to researching the right keywords to use throughout your site, placing them in the right places is essential. Typically, keywords should go towards the beginning of blog posts, within HTML tags, and other top locations. It's also important to ensure that your business is listed correctly on online directories to make it easier to find your site. Fixing 404 and broken link errors can also ensure smooth navigation for web users and search engines alike. Finally, generating content on a regular basis can not only provide your site with a place to use all of this optimization, it also gives your company a chance to educate clients and demonstrate its expertise.

A Northern Virginia SEO agency can perform the more advanced tactics needed to achieve the highest rankings on Google. Speak to a Northern Virginia SEO agency for more information and to schedule a free consultation. 321 Web Marketing creates custom marketing plans for each of its clients, monitoring their progress and making changes as necessary to help clients reach their goals.

Palm Beach, FL, October 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Raptis Rare Books, one of the world’s leading antiquarian and rare book galleries, became the first in its industry in the United States to use synthetic DNA for authentication and inventory management.

The synthetic DNA technology (Asset Marking product), from SelectaDNA, provides clients of Raptis Rare Books with enhanced assurance of authentication of some of the globe’s most prized and valuable literary works, which are valued up to, and above, $500,000.

“Raptis Rare Books takes extraordinary measures to ensure authenticity of its collection of literary treasures,” said Matthew Raptis, owner and founder of Raptis Rare Books located at the famed shopping destination on Worth Avenue, Palm Beach, Fla. “The use of SelectaDNA is an excellent complement to our rigorous authentication protocols, which provides our clients with added confidence in purchasing these rare literary gems.”

“We’re very pleased to have Raptis Rare Books utilize the synthetic DNA technology from SelectaDNA,” said Henrik Olsen, CEO of CSI Protect, the exclusive distributor of SelectaDNA technology in North America. “This proven technology is used by many museums and libraries in many countries, as well as by a wide and diverse spectrum of industries.”

AlpStories - Embracing a New Model for the Creation of Skincare Products

Atlanta, GA, October 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- AlpStories Inc., based in Atlanta, Georgia, is a personalized organic skincare line for women. The company's proprietary robotic technology enables customers to self-create skincare products to meet their own unique needs. All skincare products have the highest possible share of pure organic ingredients and are made-to-order, containing carefully selected bioactive botanicals from the Alps, one of the purest places on Earth.

AlpStories - Where Nature meets Future
Each customer creates her own unique and quality organic skin care products via a smart factory on the phone or through the website. There are millions of different variations depending on ingredients, fragrances, concentration, skin need... all individualized to a woman’s skin.

AlpStories - A brief history
The rich experience of the founding team led to the realization that there is a new trend of personalization of technology and skincare products. People differ in their views and needs in taking care of their bodies and relationship with their own skin health. And because we are all different, we also need a formula that meets the needs of our individual skin. At the same time, the founders researched ways to use robotic technology for efficient mass customization.

That sparked the idea of AlpStories in 2014, a new model for personalization of skin and hair care products while leveraging the power of pure organic ingredients from the Alps. The founders came up with a unique solution to these challenges and found a way to mix organic ingredients in a fast and efficient manner, while automating the process of ordering, filling and even personalized branding. A vital part in this process is the combination of the BeautyWizard, an online diagnostic tool (with a precise algorithm) that acts as a smart factory for the consumer, and a robot that manufactures personalized skincare products in real time.

The founding team of AlpStories is made up of skincare industry experts and includes Danijel Hubman and Oksana Lipitska in Slovenia, together with Paul Nunnari and Astrid Androsch in the United States.

All truly organic skincare products and the tool to customize facial creams are readily available via AlpStories.com, the BeautyWizard (and robotic system) allowing customers to create millions of variations will be launched in the US market in early November 2018.

"AlpStories and our personalized process for organic skincare brings the future to consumers in 2018. We are excited to offer this to the US market place through our online site www.alpstories.com. We believe that we will meet the consumers individual needs - Where Nature truly meets Future."
- Paul Nunnari, President of AlpStories

New Gospel Artist Steven Hickerson on the Move with New Single Picking Up Steam

$

0

Atlanta, GA, October 15, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Most gospel greats began their journey to national recognition in a small church singing in the choir. Some singers even have had success after being background or lead vocals for other nationally known artist or ensembles. In the case of Steven Hickerson, these two factors would remain true.

Steven Clark Hickerson is a chameleon at best compared to other artists in the gospel music industry. This well-known and multi-talented prodigy has gained success as a singer, musician, choir director, composer, and writer. His award-winning vocal genius began in his hometown of New Orleans, Louisiana. He began singing at the age of 4 with a kitchen as his stage, along with his mother & sister as a part of his act. Born to Sterling Sr. and Selena Hickerson, it was no surprise that he seemingly began to sing right out of the womb since both his parents were natural born singers. His parents took note of his interest in playing the piano at the age of 8. Although his father was a bit skeptical about Steven’s organist abilities early on, his paternal grandmother would always say “Let him play, because he knows exactly what he’s doing.”

He continued his lessons with the Late Louise Gable of New Orleans. Choir direction wasn't far behind as he turned the age of 12 and began directing choirs at 2nd Mount Calvary. Performing with 2nd Mount Calvary at the New Orleans Heritage & Jazz Festival was just one of his many accomplishments while serving. At 15, he was rewarded with the title of “Minister of Music” there at his home church. In 2000, he later traveled with the choir under his direction to Lyon, France. His high school days were filled with opportunities to exercise his gifts/talents alongside his peers while deemed as student director of all the choirs. In 2001, he received the New Orleans Gospel Choice award for having the best high school choir in the city. Steven moved on as his career propelled him to a new position as Minister of Music at Bountiful Harvest Full Gospel Baptist church in 2002. This experience would prove to prepare him for his next move in career and ministry. It was around this time that the music that he so loved begin to purpose a real and Godly relationship for him at the age of 19.

In 2005, Steven’s life seemingly detoured from many opportunities and life as he knew it in Louisiana due to Hurricane Katrina. He landed with family in Marietta, GA after several of his family and friends were displaced. After the dust settled, he is now living in Dallas, GA, a suburb of Atlanta. He begins visiting Grace Community Christian Church of Kennesaw, GA with his family members in 2005. While visiting Grace, he enrolled in Kennesaw State University where he later completed his B.A. in music degree. It didn’t take very long for Steven’s gift to make room for him there. Dr. Christopher Chappell, Pastor of Grace, took notice and hired Steven. There he served diligently as Chief Musician for 5 Years. He was recently promoted to Minister of Music in January 2011. In the Winter of 2012, he toured Europe as a featured vocalist and pianist with Sonya McGuire all over Italy.

In 2018, Steven founded Gospel Renaissance Muzik Group, a production and music publishing company located in Atlanta, GA. With Steven Hickerson listed as the main artist on the roster, GRMG and Steven Hickerson has just released his new single entitled, “Reset” which is available on iTunes and Amazon music. The single is picking up radio play in several markets and offers a very powerful vocal delivery that will surely give you goosebumps. You can also catch the official “Reset” video on YouTube.

Currently Steven can be seen in a city near you as he performs with Ricky Dillard & New G as the lead vocalist on the hit song, He shall Reign (King of Glory). Steven is gearing up to go into the studio to work on his upcoming project and is teaming up with some of the talented producers and musicians that worked on his latest “Reset” release. Steven Hickerson is a talent to watch for in the gospel industry and will surely get you on your feet in praise.

Abrado Direct Displacement UltraClean Saves Operator $200K

Houston, TX, October 15, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Abrado announced today that it has completed its first use of the UltraClean Balanced (UCB) Displacement System for a major shelf operator in the Gulf of Mexico using its 200X chemicals.

The UCB Displacement System is a simplified balanced displacement technique utilizing a single Wellbore Complete Spacer (WBC) built using only water, polymer, barite and 200X. The UCB Displacement System in a dry tree scenario is a single spacer. Subsea applications utilize a viscous spacer pumped behind the WBC to assist in removing debris in the riser. 200X is a patented wellbore displacement surfactant used for displacing water based, synthetic and oil based muds to clear brine fluids. It removes mud residue and solids from the wellbore, casing and other metal surfaces on the first application. Federal regulators have agreed that the “Balanced Direct Displacement” will be the preferred method for the GoM in the not so distant future. “Abrado demonstrated the value of its direct displacement technology by successfully performing the entire displacement
operation including short trip in just over 24 hours thus saving the operator more than $200,000 in conventional direct displacement costs, disposal and rig time,” said Mike Rhodes Senior Technical Manager displacements for Abrado. A direct displacement was executed using Abrado’s UCB Displacement System. The displacement procedure was finalized on location and carried out with ZERO QHSE or NPT reports. Once the entire rig’s available completion fluid handling equipment was flushed with Abrado's Rig Wash, the WBC Spacer was mixed and pumped. Spacers returned to surface on time as planned and intact. Pumps were shut down and wellbore cleanout tools were short tripped to top riser brush. Service personnel and company supervisors commented that, “The Riser clean-out tools were perfectly clean.” The tools were then tripped back in hole to bottom and a full circulation was performed per Abrado procedure to ensure all debris was carried out of the well before shutting down.

Corporate Profile
Abrado Wellbore Services is a specialist, global, expandable section milling plug and abandonment service technology company. Abrado’s Medusa® technology in combination with its proprietary downhole video platform significantly reduces the cost and time of plug and abandonment operations and leads to a permanent and visually verifiable rock-to-rock barrier, delivering a definitive sealed wellbore at the end of its productive life. Abrado has amassed extensive expertise in finding solutions to downhole challenges and currently holds more than 20 patents covering specialty tools and methods used in Conventional, Rigless and Thru Tubing P&A, Fishing and Wellbore Cleanout sectors.

Lakeville, MN, October 15, 2018 --(PR.com)-- iBrics hopes to raise $63,000 to bring The iBrics Imagination Set to market.

Starting from $49 for the early bird special, The Imagination Set uses intelligent building blocks to teach needed 21st century skills through hands-on experiments. Tested and validated across multiple venues, iBrics experiments help develop critical thinking and problem solving skills through fun projects which challenge and engage.

https://ibrics.cc/product/imagination-kit/

iBrics modules are intelligent building blocks. Each iBrics module is engineered to perform one or more actions. The color-coded iBrics connect to each other, by following simple-to-understand rules, to design and create cool objects. iBrics modules are compatible with each other, including future modules. They can also be integrated with other building blocks to create uniquely imaginative objects.

iBrics experiments make use of familiar everyday experiences to teach and build understanding of underlying concepts. How does a Smart device know which side is up? The iBrics Gravity module and the accompanying experiments allow students to explore and understand. One of the experiments using the Light Sensor module explores the auto brightness functionality of smart phone displays. The iBrics conductivity module allows students to compare apples and oranges; the accompanying tutorials explain the science.

The Imagination Set is the first of many, planned iBrics Learning sets. It includes 8 iBrics modules and 10 experiments with guides. The modules can connect in thousands of working combinations, providing hours of creative fun.

Ajay Raikar, Founder at iBrics, explains: “The stimulus for iBrics was our search for fun, interactive educational toys to teach critical thinking and problem solving skills to our own children. After multiple iterations, we developed an effective solution and tested this solution across multiple schools and libraries. Feedback from over 200 middle and high school students who participated was extremely positive. iBrics is the result of our multi-year journey to develop, test, and validate a progressive learning environment which engages students through age and skill based challenges. We help children become 'future-ready,' and are counting on the parent community to help us bring this unique learning concept to market.”

You can back The iBrics Imagination Set on their website now; starting at $49 for the Early Bird adopters.
