ROSKILDE, DENMARK, May 05, 2011 (Press-News.org) WebProof in Roskilde has yet again proven that Danish IT, based on unique, innovative program development, can be a global player.

"As one of the established and biggest software providers in online proofing, we were invited to give suggestions on how WebProof would satisfy the detailed specification requirements that ICA had put forward, especially including requirements to security, up-time and speed. We must have shown this very well via online meetings and workshops," states CEO Jan Adeltoft, and continues "I have great respect for the thoroughness shown by ICA, plus their ability to involve users and get their acceptance, prior to a decision being made. It is the biggest pamphlet-producer in Scandinavia for only one customer and security requirements are naturally very high. Therefore, we regard the order as a massive pat on the back for the great user-friendliness and security on which WebProof is based," says Jan Adeltoft, CEO at WebProof.com.

WebProof is an online proofing service, especially for graphics production. The software handles and automates approval processes of graphic documents, amongst others. As many people are involved in proofing approval, this means that WebProof typically reduces total production times by 25%. WebProof in addition includes a 3D Page-Flip, which means that users on the internet can flick-through offer pamphlets and print shopping lists, etc. WebProof offers solutions regardless of whether you are a 5-man advertising agency or a large global organisation of 10,000 employees, where WebProof supports XML integration for the majority of external systems, plus total automation with advanced hot-folder workflow and InDesign Server integration.

Comprehensive study finds no link between XMRV retrovirus and chronic fatigue syndrome

2011-05-05
(SALT LAKE CITY)— New findings from University of Utah School of Medicine researchers show that the retrovirus called XMRV is not present in the blood of patients who have chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). These findings contradict a widely reported 2009 Science study that linked CFS to XMRV. The study, performed by a team of U of U researchers led by Ila R Singh, M.D., Ph.D., associate professor of pathology, was published May 4, 2011, in the Journal of Virology online, and is the most comprehensive to date regarding the purported link between chronic fatigue syndrome ...

Positive effects of depression

2011-05-05
Sadness, apathy, preoccupation. These traits come to mind when people think about depression, the world's most frequently diagnosed mental disorder. Yet, forthcoming research in the Journal of Abnormal Psychology provides evidence that depression has a positive side-effect. According to a new study by Bettina von Helversen (University of Basel, Switzerland), Andreas Wilke (Clarkson University), Tim Johnson (Stanford University), Gabriele Schmid (Technische Universität München, Germany), and Burghard Klapp (Charité Hospital Berlin, Germany), depressed individuals perform ...

Researchers discover protein that could help prevent the spread of cancer

Researchers discover protein that could help prevent the spread of cancer
2011-05-05
A protein capable of halting the spread of breast cancer cells could lead to a therapy for preventing or limiting the spread of the disease. "Cancer researchers want to design new therapeutic strategies in which the metastasis or spreading stage of cancer can be blocked," explains Andrew Craig, lead researcher and a professor in Queen's Department of Biochemistry and Cancer Research Institute. "Patients stand a much better chance of survival if the primary tumor is the only tumor that needs to be treated." The regulatory protein identified by Dr Craig's team inhibits ...

BestPokerRooms Weighs Remaining Options For US Poker Players

2011-05-05
The fallout from Black Friday -when the US government seized the domain names of the three largest online poker rooms operating inside the United States, PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker, and the Cereus Poker Network of Absolute Poker and UB Poker--has gone beyond simply affecting these three online poker giants, and a number of smaller sites have also decided to leave the US market in the wake of the government crackdown. Three of the sites that have decided to forego the US online poker market are Victory Poker, which operates on the Cake Poker Network; and Sportsbook Poker ...

Pedaling Toward Enlightment: Core Power Yoga Introduces RealRyder Indoor Cycling, 8-10 Locations Expected by Years End
2011-05-05
Picture a Buddha statue - the highest symbol in yogic culture - and immediately the idea of unshakable faith, mental discipline and fearlessness come to mind. Ask a professional cyclist what it takes to complete a 100-mile race and you'll hear about similar self-mastery. Trevor Tice, CEO of Core Power Yoga (CPY), has always appreciated the similarities between power yoga and the sport of cycling, and now he's investing in both. "I love the combination of yoga and cycling. Both require focus, physical strength, breath control and that mind-body connection," ...

U of A study finds ways to help end dry mouth in cancer patients

2011-05-05
(Edmonton) For patients suffering from cancer in the mouth or throat, a recent study shows that a treatment called submandibular gland transfer will assist in preventing a radiation-induced condition called xerostomia. Also known as dry mouth, xerostomia occurs when salivary glands stop working. University of Alberta researcher Jana Rieger likens the feeling of xerostomia to the experience of the after-effects of having surgery and anesthetic—but the feeling is permanent. While the importance of healthy saliva glands may be an afterthought for some patients when battling ...

Researchers show heparan sulfate adjusts functions of growth factor proteins

2011-05-05
(Boston) - When the human genome project produced a map of human genes, the number of genes in humans turned out to be relatively small, approximately the same number as in primitive nematode worms. The difference in complexity between human and primitive organisms results from the ways in which the functions of genes are elaborated, rather from just the number of genes. Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) researchers are showing how heparan sulfate, a carbohydrate that is expressed on the surface of all human cells, adjusts the functions of growth factor proteins. ...

USGS economic analysis updated for the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska

2011-05-05
The U.S. Geological Survey assessment on the economic recoverability of undiscovered, conventional oil and gas resources within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPRA) and adjacent state waters is now available. This economic analysis is based on a 2010 USGS resource assessment (http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/2010/3102/) that determined how much undiscovered, conventional oil and gas in the NPRA is technically recoverable. These reports provide updates from the USGS 2003 economic analysis (http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2003/of03-044/) and 2002 resource assessment (http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/2002/fs045-02/) ...

Hitting target in cancer fight now easier with new nanoparticle platform, UCLA scientists say

2011-05-05
The ability to use nanoparticles to deliver payloads of cancer-fighting drugs to tumors in the body could herald a fundamental change in chemotherapy treatment. But scientists are still at a relatively early stage in the implementation of this technology. Although developing nanoparticles that work as "magic bullets" — selectively targeting tumors while sparing normal, healthy tissues — is still the goal, the reality is that most of these nanocarriers are removed through the liver and spleen before ever reaching their intended target. And many of the encapsulated drugs ...

Estimated costs of environmental disease in children at $76.6 billion per year

2011-05-05
In three new studies published in the May issue of the journal Health Affairs, Mount Sinai School of Medicine researchers reveal the staggering economic impact of toxic chemicals and air pollutants in the environment, and propose new legislation to mandate testing of new chemicals and also those already on the market. Leonardo Trasande, MD, Associate Professor of Preventive Medicine and Pediatrics at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, analyzed the costs of conditions – including lead poisoning, childhood cancer, asthma, autism, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ...
