FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, November 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) Broward SCORE will launch in December special digital editions of its upcoming winter workshops for 2012 designed for smart phones and tablets.

SCORE enlisted the expertise of Guni Bermudez of Reach MCS and Jeff Miller of Stallion Publishers, both based in Fort Lauderdale, to create the new platforms. The Broward chapter of SCORE, a resource partner with the SBA, tested its digital editions in the fall, working out the kinks and improving the user experience.

These new digital editions allow the nonprofit's workshop catalog to be easily viewed on smart phones, and tablets including the popular iPhone and iPad, without having to adjust the font size or scroll to read thoroughly. By simply clicking on a workshop date, the reader can quickly register for a session.

"We now have the capability to deliver information about our schedule of workshops using the latest technology business owners have come to rely on," says George Gremse, a Broward SCORE volunteer who designed the fall workshop schedule.

Broward SCORE offered an extensive schedule of more than 34 business workshops in October and November. The new list of 2012 workshops will be posted in December on http://www.Broward.SCORE.org

Mechanism of wine swirling explained

2011-11-22

Wine drinkers know that swirling a good vintage around in a glass aerates the wine and releases its bouquet. Just how the process – known as "orbital shaking" – works, however, has been something of a mystery. Fluid dynamicists have long observed that orbital shaking generates a wave that propagates around the inner edge of the glass, churning the liquid as it travels. "The formation of this wave has probably been known since the introduction of glass or any other kind of cylindrical bowl, but what has been lacking is a description of the physics related to the mixing ...

2011-11-22

In the early '90s, a Department of Defense engineer at NASA assigned to work on the now defunct Super Conducting Super Collider project was sidetracked with a personal mission that had nothing to do with subatomic particles or electromagnetic fields. Instead, after federal budget cuts ended the project, Ron Green assigned himself an entirely new operation: hatching up the country's perfect breakfast, brunch and lunch restaurant concept. Mission accomplished. Today, Another Broken Egg Cafe cracks more than 900,000 eggs a week at its 18 bustling locations in seven states, ...

Nursing home quality scorecards don't tell the whole score

2011-11-22

INDIANAPOLIS — The scoring system government agencies use to rate nursing home quality does not provide an adequate evaluation because they do not take into account the degree of cognitive impairment of their patient populations and whether facilities include a specialized dementia unit according to a new study. Focusing on statistics from Minnesota, researchers from Indiana University School of Medicine and the Regenstrief Institute report on the inadequacy of quality of care indicators for nursing home residents with behavioral and psychological systems related to dementia ...

New research sheds light on how we see family resemblance in faces

2011-11-22

Rockville, Md. – Whether comparing a man and a woman or a parent and a baby, we can still see when two people of different age or sex are genetically related.

When it comes to churning out electrons, metal glass beats plastics

2011-11-22

Field emission devices, which produce a steady stream of electrons, have a host of consumer, industrial, and research applications. Recent designs based on nanotubes and other nanomaterials embedded in plastics show initial promise, but have a number of drawbacks that hinder their wide-scale application. The embedded nanotubes, which serve as the source for the electrons, also enable the normally inert plastic to conduct electricity. This has the desired effect of producing a versatile and easily manufactured field emission device. But since plastics are, by nature, poor ...
