DRUMS, PA, August 12, 2011 (Press-News.org) With its promise to give us everything that makes sense, a group of young, self-proclaimed tech-geeks is gearing up to announce the launch of their new website this week.
Shawcapitalmanagementonline.com, a product of a 6-month long development effort by the innovative founders themselves, is expected to make its way to the mainstream roster of news providers online. The new website features relevant news stories that focuses on Technology, Finance and Lifestyle and an area where you can interact with fellow readers and discuss stuff.
Analysis shows that online users take at least two hours browsing for news everyday -- and most of that time is spent in sorting through a variety of bland news stories and cluttered web pages. This is where SCM Online comes in.
"Our website boasts of easy navigation and clean layout that will make your everyday news browsing far more convenient," said a spokesperson for SCM Online.
"We've drastically improved the user experience in this new website. What we're aiming for is a clean look that will appeal to everyone and make it easier for them to find something they are interested in. We basically trimmed down all the ads that are annoying and distracting to readers," he added.
And for something that ordinary news websites do not have, Shaw Capital Management Online takes the lead as it introduces a community forum in their website, with the aim of promoting active participation from readers.
"In this factor, I think the SCM Online team got it just right. You know, when reading stories from news websites, there are instances when you get really interested and tempted to say something about it. Now, you can do it by posting a comment at the end of the article. The downside is, discussion in the comments section can get messy and multiple replies/quotes will drag the loading time of the page itself; not to mention it's a user's nightmare to weed through all those comments to make sure what he's going to say was not mentioned before. In a forum, everything's organized and you get to say what you want more conveniently."
SCM Online looks ready to take the traditional online news industry by storm through aggressive product development and quality user experience.
"In the coming months, the public can expect tweaks and addition to the current features of the website. And they can rest assured that all the changes we'll be making will be made with their benefit in mind."
About SCM Online

Divot resistance in golf course turfgrass
2011-08-12
MADISON, WI, AUGUST 10, 2011 -- Golf courses, known for their calm scenic views and precise grass patterns, take daily abuse. Divots created by golf strokes are a common occurrence, and can be a costly problem for golf course maintenance operations. Although previous research has identified differences in divot recovery across species of bermudagrass and zoysiagrass, little is known about divot resistance.
Scientists at Purdue University and the University of Arkansas evaluated 12 cultivars of bermudagrass and zoysiagrass in a field experiment conducted in Fayetteville, ...
Revolutionary material dramatically increases explosive force of weapons
2011-08-12
A revolutionary material that will replace steel in warhead casings will bring added lethality and increase the likelihood of a hit on an enemy target, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) announced August 10.
By combining several metals with standard manufacturing techniques, High-Density Reactive Material (HDRM) has the potential to dramatically increase the explosive impact of most weapons with little or no compromise in strength or design.
Unlike conventional munitions, the innovative materials approach integrates the casing with approved warhead explosives for increased ...
Blood tests for active TB not accurate or cost-effective
2011-08-12
Commercial blood serum antibody tests—widely used in India and other developing countries to diagnose active tuberculosis—are not accurate or cost-effective, according to an analysis by researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, the University of Washington School of Public Health and McGill University. Use of serological tests in India resulted in more DALYs (years of healthy life lost to premature death and illness), more secondary infections, and more false-positive diagnoses of TB, compared to the use of microscopic sputum smear analysis or ...
Study finds new ADHD genes, links susceptibility with autism and other neuropsychiatric conditions
2011-08-12
TORONTO – New research led by The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Toronto has identified more genes in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and shows that there is an overlap between some of these genes and those found in other neuropsychiatric conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The study is published in the August 10 advance online edition of Science Translational Medicine.
The research team was led by Dr. Russell Schachar, Senior Scientist and Psychiatrist at SickKids and Professor of Psychiatry at the University ...
Human-cell-derived model of ALS provides a new way to study the majority of cases
2011-08-12
For decades, scientists have studied a laboratory mouse model that develops signs of the paralyzing disease amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) as they age. In a new study appearing in Nature Biotechnology, investigators at Nationwide Children's Hospital have developed a new model of ALS, one that mimics sporadic ALS, which represents about 90 percent of all cases.
ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is characterized by the death of motor neurons, which are muscle-controlling nerve cells in the spinal cord. As these neurons die, the body's voluntary muscles ...
Low vitamin D linked to earlier first menstruation
2011-08-12
ANN ARBOR, Mich.---A study links low vitamin D in young girls with early menstruation, which is a risk factor for a host of health problems for teen girls as well as women later in life.
Researchers from the University of Michigan School of Public Health measured the blood vitamin D levels in 242 girls ages 5-12 from Bogota, Colombia, and followed them for 30 months. Girls low on vitamin D were twice as likely to start menstruation during the study than those with sufficient vitamin D, said epidemiologist Eduardo Villamor, associate professor in the U-M SPH.
This ...
Scientists explore the role of aeroecology in bat conservation and ecosystem health
2011-08-12
Golf courses and coffee plantations are some of the unlikely bat habitats that could be considered in conservation plans, say scientists presenting research at the Ecological Society of America's (ESA) 96th Annual Meeting from August 7-12, 2011. Using Doppler weather radar and other technologies relatively new to the field of ecology, ecologists will discuss the role of atmospheric conditions in bat behavior and the effectiveness of acoustic deterrents in reducing bat fatalities at wind farms. ESA's August 2011 meeting will take place in Austin, Texas, home to North America's ...
Metabolomics as a basis for gender-specific drugs
2011-08-12
Analyses of the metabolic profile of blood serum have revealed significant differences in metabolites between men and women. In a study to be published on August 11 in the open-access journal PLoS Genetics, scientists at the Helmholtz Zentrum München have concluded that there is a need for gender-specific therapies.
Gender-specific therapies may be required for some diseases as there are significant differences between male and female metabolism. Such differences were shown to exist for 101 of the 131 metabolites – above all in lipid and amino acid species – in the sera ...
Researchers fight cholera with computer forecasting
2011-08-12
AUSTIN, Texas – Just as the rainy season is driving a new surge of cholera cases in Haiti, a new computational model could forecast where outbreaks are likely to occur.
Researchers at Ohio State University are working with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the project, in the hopes of targeting anti-cholera efforts where they are most needed in the earthquake-ravaged country.
Just back from a 10-day trip to the Artibonite Valley in Haiti, Ohio State researcher Marisa Eisenberg described the model's early results at the Ecological Society of America ...
Polar climate change may lead to ecological change
2011-08-12
Ice and frozen ground at the North and South Poles are affected by climate change induced warming, but the consequences of thawing at each pole differ due to the geography and geology, according to a Penn State hydrologist.
"The polar regions, particularly the Arctic, are warming faster than the rest of the world," Michael N. Gooseff, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, told attendees today (Aug. 11) at the 96th annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America in Austin, Texas. "As a consequence, polar ecosystems respond directly to changes ...
