ALPHARETTA, GA, March 22, 2012 (Press-News.org) According to Cardinal Web Solutions, an Internet marketing firm in Atlanta, all business pages on Facebook will be converted to the Timeline format on March 30th 2012. While this may be the biggest change from a visual standpoint, the changes to features and the heretofore virtually unlimited versatility that has made Facebook an essential social media marketing tool will be a hard pill to swallow for many businesses.
Communications sent thru Facebook by businesses are being throttled to 16% per month of current Facebook fans that have "liked" your page. This reach may be extended to 75% per month and 50% per week by registering and paying for the Facebook Reach Generator.
The welcome or landing page is a thing of the past, and now visitors will be sent directly to your main page, viewing it in timeline format. The main page will now be occupied predominantly by an enlarged image. The image, however, comes with a lengthy list of restrictions. Prohibited items include discount offers, marketing calls to action, and even contact information like a company phone number or web address.
Alex Membrillo, Principal at Cardinal Web Solutions in Atlanta, states that "While these changes may be disruptive to marketing through Facebook in the short-term, companies willing to set aside a social media marketing budget and partner with a solid Atlanta Internet marketing firm will come out on top."
The changes that are set to implement March 30th include many marketing opportunities for businesses that are willing and able to pay for them. To learn more about these changes and how interactive marketing can help your business make the transition, visit www.cardinalwebsolutions.com.

Nanopower: Avoiding electrolyte failure in nanoscale lithum batteries
2012-03-22
It turns out you can be too thin—especially if you're a nanoscale battery. Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the University of Maryland, College Park, and Sandia National Laboratories built a series of nanowire batteries to demonstrate that the thickness of the electrolyte layer can dramatically affect the performance of the battery, effectively setting a lower limit to the size of the tiny power sources.* The results are important because battery size and performance are key to the development of autonomous MEMS—microelectromechanical ...
Study: Stress-induced cortisol facilitates threat-related decision making among police officers
2012-03-22
NEW YORK – March 21, 2012 – Research by Columbia Business School's Modupe Akinola, Assistant Professor, Management, and Wendy Berry Mendes, Associate Professor, Sarlo/Ekman Endowed Chair of Emotion, University of California San Francisco in Behavioral Neuroscience examines how increases in cortisol, brought on by an acute social stressor, can influence threat-related decision making. The researchers studied a group of police officers completing a standardized laboratory stressor and then afterwards the group completed a computer simulated threat-related decision making ...
Nemours researchers uncover new evidence of cancer-causing agent present in gaseous phase of cigarette smoke
2012-03-22
Wilmington, DE— A team of researchers led by A. K. Rajasekaran, PhD, Director of the Nemours Center for Childhood Cancer Research, has shown that a key protein involved in cell function and regulation is stopped by a substance present in cigarette smoke. Their work is published online in the American Journal of Physiology - Lung Cell and Molecular Physiology.
Cigarette smoke is well recognized as a cause of lung cancer and is associated with many other forms of cancer in adults. Cigarette smoke has more than 4,000 components, many of which are linked to the development ...

Data from MESSENGER spacecraft reveals new insights on planet Mercury
2012-03-22
(Santa Barbara, Calif.) ––Thanks to the MESSENGER spacecraft, and a mission that took more than 10 years to complete, scientists now have a good picture of the solar system's innermost planet.
On March 17, MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space Environment, GEochemistry, and Ranging) completed its one-year primary mission, orbiting Mercury, capturing nearly 100,000 images, and recording data that reveals new information about the planet's core, topography, and the mysterious radar bright material in the permanently shadowed areas near the poles. The findings are presented ...
Competitive Advantage Even More Important in a Recession (How to Use Creativity and Innovation to Become Number One in Your Industry)
2012-03-22
"Business owners are being squeezed from all angles. Rising gas prices, increased regulations and unemployment all affect the bottom line. When no one is hiring, more people begin starting their own businesses or become consultants. Basically, you have more people trying to get less business. And that means there's more competition. But there is one thing you can do to get a head start on your competition, and that's through innovation.
"Innovation isn't just about creating new products", says Julie Austin, whose company Creative Innovation, teaches businesses ...
Stanford imaging study reveals differences in brain function for children with math anxiety
2012-03-22
STANFORD, Calif. — Scientists at the Stanford University School of Medicine have shown for the first time how brain function differs in people who have math anxiety from those who don't.
A series of scans conducted while second- and third-grade students did addition and subtraction revealed that those who feel panicky about doing math had increased activity in brain regions associated with fear, which caused decreased activity in parts of the brain involved in problem-solving.
"The same part of the brain that responds to fearful situations, such as seeing a spider or ...
NIST findings awaken age-old anesthesia question
2012-03-22
Why does inhaling anesthetics cause unconsciousness? New insights into this century-and-a-half-old question may spring from research performed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).* Scientists from NIST and the National Institutes of Health have found hints that anesthesia may affect the organization of fat molecules, or lipids, in a cell's outer membrane—potentially altering the ability to send signals along nerve cell membranes.
"A better fundamental understanding of inhaled anesthetics could allow us to design better ones with fewer side effects," ...
How the alphabet of data processing is growing: Research team generates flying 'qubits'
2012-03-22
The alphabet of data processing could include more elements than the "0" and "1" in future. An international research team has achieved a new kind of bit with single electrons, called quantum bits, or qubits. With them, considerably more than two states can be defined. So far, quantum bits have only existed in relatively large vacuum chambers. The team has now generated them in semiconductors. They have put an effect in practice, which the RUB physicist Prof. Dr. Andreas Wieck had already theoretically predicted 22 years ago. This represents another step along the path ...
Berkeley Lab study shows far higher potential for wind energy in India than previously estimated
2012-03-22
A new assessment of wind energy in India by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has found that the potential for on-shore wind energy deployment is far higher than the official estimates— about 20 times and up to 30 times greater than the current government estimate of 102 gigawatts. This landmark finding may have significant impact on India's renewable energy strategy as it attempts to cope with a massive and chronic shortage of electricity.
"The main importance of this study, why it's groundbreaking, is that wind is one of the most cost-effective and mature renewable ...
