Mr. Avalon has also attracted such industry heavy weights as Jay Frank, Ron Gertz, and Grammy Artist, Michelle Shocked to participate in his three panels. The panels, entitled: Economics of the New "Record" Industry, The Future of Jobs in the Music Space and The Artist's New Team will address current challenges of interest to any music industry professional.
"Helping out NAMM in this way is an honor," commented Avalon. "And I am honored to help with something I know will enhance an already great trade show."
Mr. Avalon began his career as a New York record producer and recording engineer. His combined work with Grammy award-winning recording artists earned him several RIAA Platinum record awards as well as other awards throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Today he is an artists' rights activist and the author of a top selling music industry reference, Confessions Of A Record Producer ,which is required reading in the music business curriculum of over 40 schools, including, UCLA, Loyola, Fullsail and NYU. Mr. Avalon is a court-recognized music business expert in New York, California, Florida and Puerto Rico and has also acted in an advisory capacity to multiple State Attorney General Offices and the Senate Judiciary Committee in Sacramento in their campaign to help legitimize areas of the music business.

ARIS Sport Reinvents the Wheel - Skateboard Carving Redesigned
2012-01-10
You've most likely have heard the jokes about reinventing the wheel, but now one company can seriously say that they did reinvent the wheel.
ARIS Sport has released a skateboard with their new wheel design. The new design is better for carving; curved wheels allow the skateboard deck to roll at extreme angles, allowing the rider to cut sharp right and left turns while maintaining balance and control of the skateboard even at low speeds.
The company has released a video of the design of the new skateboard, which you will find here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkJQdhkTJh0.

Graphene rips follow rules
2012-01-09
HOUSTON -- Research from Rice University and the University of California at Berkeley may give science and industry a new way to manipulate graphene, the wonder material expected to play a role in advanced electronic, mechanical and thermal applications.
When graphene – a one-atom thick sheet of carbon – rips under stress, it does so in a unique way that puzzled scientists who first observed the phenomenon. Instead of tearing randomly like a piece of paper would, it seeks the path of least resistance and creates new edges that give the material desirable qualities.
Because ...
Study finds air pollution linked to diabetes and hypertension in African-American women
2012-01-09
(Boston) -The incidence of type 2 diabetes and hypertension increases with cumulative levels of exposure to nitrogen oxides, according to a new study led by researchers from the Slone Epidemiology Center (SEC) at Boston University. The study, which appears online in the journal Circulation, was led by Patricia Coogan, D.Sc., associate professor of epidemiology at the Boston University School of Public Health and the SEC.
While it is well established that air pollution increases the risks of acute cardiovascular events such as stroke and myocardial infarction, it is not ...
Cell-CT: A new dimension in breast cancer research
2012-01-09
Despite advances in both the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, the disease remains a leading worldwide health concern.
Now, a new imaging technology under investigation at the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University may help researchers pinpoint subtle aberrations in cell nuclear structure, the molecular biosignature of cancer, thus significantly improving diagnostic accuracy and prognosis by providing early detection of the disease.
The team, led by Professor Deirdre Meldrum, ASU Senior Scientist and Director of the Center for Biosignatures Discovery ...
Down to the wire for silicon: Researchers create a wire 4 atoms wide, 1 atom tall
2012-01-09
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The smallest wires ever developed in silicon - just one atom tall and four atoms wide - have been shown by a team of researchers from the University of New South Wales, Melbourne University and Purdue University to have the same current-carrying capability as copper wires.
Experiments and atom-by-atom supercomputer models of the wires have found that the wires maintain a low capacity for resistance despite being more than 20 times thinner than conventional copper wires in microprocessors.
The discovery, which was published in this week's journal ...
Proton therapy effective prostate cancer treatment
2012-01-09
Proton therapy, a type of external beam radiation therapy, is a safe and effective treatment for prostate cancer, according to two new studies published in the January issue of the International Journal of Radiation Oncology•Biology•Physics (Red Journal), the American Society for Radiation Oncology's (ASTRO) official scientific journal.
In the first study, researchers at the University of Florida in Jacksonville, Fla., prospectively studied 211 men with low-, intermediate-, and high-risk prostate cancer. The men were treated with proton therapy, a specialized type of ...
ISU scientist helps find structure of gene-editing protein named Method of the Year
2012-01-09
AMES, Iowa – In the two and a half years since Adam Bogdanove, professor at Iowa State University in the Department of Plant Pathology and Microbiology, along with Matthew Moscou, a former graduate student in that department, discovered how a class of proteins from plant pathogenic bacteria find and bind specific sequences in plant genomes, researchers worldwide have moved fast to use this discovery.
Last year it was first shown that the proteins can be fused to DNA modifying enzymes to manipulate genes and gene functions by Bogdanove and colleagues at the University ...
Flatworm flouts fundamental rule of biology
2012-01-09
A tiny, freshwater flatworm found in ponds and rivers around the world that has long intrigued scientists for its remarkable ability to regenerate has now added a new wrinkle to biology.
Reporting in the journal Science today, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the Stowers Institute for Medical Research in Kansas City, MO, have discovered that the worm lacks a key cellular structure called a "centrosome," which scientists have considered essential for cell division.
Every animal ever examined, from the mightiest mammals to the lowliest ...
Earth's massive extinction: The story gets worse
2012-01-09
Scientists have uncovered a lot about the Earth’s greatest extinction event that took place 250 million years ago when rapid climate change wiped out nearly all marine species and a majority of those on land. Now, they have discovered a new culprit likely involved in the annihilation: an influx of mercury into the eco-system.
“No one had ever looked to see if mercury was a potential culprit. This was a time of the greatest volcanic activity in Earth’s history and we know today that the largest source of mercury comes from volcanic eruptions,” says Dr. Steve Grasby, co-author ...
