NEW YORK, NY, June 28, 2011 (Press-News.org) Gothic Cabinet Craft (http://www.gothiccabinetcraft.com), one of the largest manufacturers and retailers of real wood furniture in the North Eastern United States, today announces the release of their new iPhone app for furniture shoppers, ShopGothic. A free app, ShopGothic was designed to aid in the furniture shopping process of Gothic Cabinet Craft's customers.
"No more guessing what color will best match existing furniture," says Aristidis Zaharopoulos, President of Gothic Cabinet Craft, Inc. "We found that to be a problem for many of our customers. You can't exactly bring your kitchen table in with you to compare wood color. This app was designed to take the guess work out of online furniture buying." Customers can use the iPhone app at home to select from Gothic's wood species and color options to select the best possible match when ordering their furniture.
"It can be incredibly frustrating to have a large piece of furniture, like a home office desk or bookshelf delivered to your house, only to find it doesn't look like what you were expecting. ShopGothic makes sure that is not longer a problem for our shoppers," continues Aristidis Zaharopoulos.
The ShopGothic app also makes furniture buying much simpler for customers who don't live near one of Gothic Cabinet Craft's many locations.
The steps are simple. Customers just choose the wood species, choose the color and place their phone next to the piece of furniture to determine the closest possible match. The color configurator compares colors, wood species and all their combinations in a convenient split view mode. The app is free and will be constantly updated with new features.
Influenced by Early American furniture designs, Gothic Cabinet Craft manufactures solid wood furniture designed to maximize the existing space in customer's homes, regardless of size. Their custom furniture designs can be built to meet any home's needs and lifestyle. Gothic Cabinet Craft has 30 locations in the five boroughs and had been providing New Yorkers with quality, real wood furniture and unique storage solutions since 1969.
Visit the iPhone app store to download ShopGothic for free.

2011-06-28
Cardiovascular disease (CVD), driven by the global pandemics of obesity and diabetes, poses a daunting challenge to clinicians in the 21st century. Despite progress, there is still much to be done to improve the control of dyslipidaemia, a key risk factor. In Europe, as many as one-half of patients are inadequately treated.1,2 The first European guidelines specifically focused on managing dyslipidaemias offer new hope.3,4 Experts from the European Atherosclerosis Society (EAS) and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) worked together to develop these guidelines.

Religion benefits traumatic brain injury victims, Wayne State University research finds
2011-06-28
DETROIT – Brigid Waldron-Perrine, Ph.D., a recent graduate from Wayne State University, and her mentor, Lisa J. Rapport, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Wayne State University's College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, found that if traumatic brain injury (TBI) victims feel close to a higher power, it can help them rehabilitate. The study was recently published in Rehabilitation Psychology.
Traumatic brain injury is a disruption of normal brain function after a head injury and affects 1.7 million Americans annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. ...
Stepped-up vaccine series for hepatitis B is effective during pregnancy
2011-06-28
DALLAS – June 28, 2011 – UT Southwestern Medical Center maternal-fetal specialists have confirmed a potential new protocol to protect pregnant women who are at risk for hepatitis B, a health problem that affects 2 billion people worldwide.
An accelerated hepatitis B vaccination schedule for high-risk pregnant women was found effective and well-tolerated. The findings appear in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology.
While the normal three-shot regimen of hepatitis B vaccine for adults – given over a six-month period – has long been recommended for pregnant women, that ...
The good, the bad and the ugly: The many roles of c-JUN in cancer
2011-06-28
The c-JUN protein was initially described in the late 1980s as the mammalian equivalent of a protein responsible for causing cancer in birds. Intense research in a number of labs has subsequently led to a basic understanding of how the protein works. c-JUN is a transcription factor that modifies (phosphorylates) key regulatory proteins in the cell, thereby activating or deactivating them and leading to unregulated cell division and hence cancer. It has also become clear that c-JUN acts not on its own but in conjunction with an array of further proteins that modulate ...
Rockin' tortoises: A 150-year-old new species
2011-06-28
A team of researchers investigated a desert tortoise from the Southwest USA and northwestern Mexico. What was thought to be a simple problem in species identification turned out to be a very complex matter. Their investigations required forensic genetics and several other methods. In the end, they found it necessary to describe a new species. More than that, the discovery has very important implications for conservation and the development of the deserts of southern California.
Since the original description of Agassiz's Land Tortoise, scientifically called Gopherus agassizii, ...
Third-Party Consultants Garner Higher Client Satisfaction than Vendors by 20-Plus Percent
2011-06-28
Whether in a leading or supporting role, third-party firms specializing in a vendor's applications implement them more adeptly than the vendor itself for all but one vendor -- often by a wide margin, according to a new KLAS study.
For the report, Clinical Implementation Services: High in Demand But More Specialized in Need, healthcare providers reported contracting out implementation work to 30 different companies, from smaller boutique firms to the software vendors themselves. Every vendor, except for Epic, was outstripped by third-parties specializing in the vendors' ...

Lack of empathy following traumatic brain injury linked to reduced responsiveness to anger
2011-06-28
Milan, Italy, 28 June 2011 – Egocentric, self-centred, and insensitive to the needs of others: these social problems often arise in people with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and have been attributed in part to a loss of emotional empathy, the capacity to recognise and understand the emotions of other people. Given that traumatic brain injuries are becoming more common, and resulting empathy deficits can have negative repercussions on social functioning and quality of life, it is increasingly important to understand the processes that shape emotional empathy. A new ...
Biocides that attack only insects
2011-06-28
Biocides turn out to be less toxic for the environment if they are subjected to microencapsulation, due to the fact that this process forms shell(s) for the substance. This is the conclusion of chemist Ms Mariluz Alonso in a thesis defended at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). In this research, she chose a number of biocides and other complementary substances, seeking a micro-encapsulation which, besides being compatible with the environment, is more soluble in water, more manageable for the operator, with better conditions of conservation, and effective against ...
World record: The highest magnetic fields are created in Dresden
2011-06-28
On June 22, 2011, the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf set a new world record for magnetic fields with 91.4 teslas. To reach this record, Sergei Zherlitsyn and his colleagues at the High Magnetic Field Laboratory Dresden (HLD) developed a coil weighing about 200 kilograms in which electric current create the giant magnetic field – for a period of a few milliseconds. The coil survived the experiment unscathed.
"With this record, we're not really that interested in reaching top field values, but instead in using it for research in materials science," explains Joachim ...
