AMERICAN FORK, UT, May 01, 2012 (Press-News.org) Robert Stanek, bestselling author of over 150 published books, has a passion to help other independently published authors reach their goals. Stanek lives in Washington State, but his reach is international via the internet. Over the past 11 years he has developed several venues to help promote and market indie authors giving them more online exposure and visibility. He works diligently to offer ways in which to showcase new authors and books. One example is his blog readindies.blogspot.com (http://readindies.blogspot.com/).
Stanek started his writing career as a technical writer in 1995 with his titles Electronic Publishing Unleashed and Web Publishing Unleashed that went on to become popular reads for people in web design, web development and programming. He then branched into publishing fiction in 2001 before the big movement of authors turned to publishing on their own. At that time, he was at the forefront of the indie publishing wave of this decade and firmly believes that in today's world of electronic reading devices such as Kindle and Nook publishing independently is the only way to go.
"Indie publishing gives authors more control over their works and more opportunities," states Stanek in an interview. "As an indie, authors get a greater share of the revenues as well, which allows authors to price their work very competitively."
On the flip side, many people feel that hard-bound paper books will never be replaced. That may be true, but the audience of book fans that is turning to the ereading devices becomes more and more each day with millions of books being downloaded. Stanek is a forerunner in that arena and will help as many indie authors as possible along the way.

Highly religious people are less motivated by compassion than are non-believers
2012-05-01
"Love thy neighbor" is preached from many a pulpit. But new research from the University of California, Berkeley, suggests that the highly religious are less motivated by compassion when helping a stranger than are atheists, agnostics and less religious people.
In three experiments, social scientists found that compassion consistently drove less religious people to be more generous. For highly religious people, however, compassion was largely unrelated to how generous they were, according to the findings which are published in the July issue of the journal Social Psychological ...
System helps public health officials identify priorities to better allocate resources
2012-05-01
COLUMBIA, Mo. – As the United States grapples with health care reform, much attention has focused on the importance of preventative health care. Now, a researcher at the University of Missouri has developed a system that could help public health care organizations determine the best method of allocating resources by prioritizing health risk factors and conditions – in some cases before these conditions become major health problems.
"Every state, county and community has different trends and needs in public health," said Eduardo Simoes, chair of the Department of Health ...

How to put some spring in your spring cleaning efforts
2012-05-01
The problem with clutter is, well, the clutter. Being unable to part with things can prolong some spring cleanings into a summer project. And nobody wants to be stuck inside decluttering once the weather gets nice.
Certified Professional Organizer Wendy Arundel, owner and manager of The Mudroom, a Wellesley-based company serving Greater Boston, suggests a more practical, less emotional approach to a spring cleaning/decluttering.
âEURœYour focus really needs to be on how decluttering your space will improve your life and your living environment. You might even want ...
'Cloud' computing technology should make sharing medical images easier and more efficient
2012-05-01
Patients find "cloud" technology a faster, more efficient way to store and distribute their medical images than current options, according to the preliminary findings of an image sharing project led by The Mount Sinai Medical Center in conjunction with four other academic medical institutions. The Phase I results of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Image Share project are being presented today at the American Roentgen Ray Society Annual Meeting in Vancouver, Canada.
Mount Sinai was the first site to go live in August 2011 and currently has about 190 patients ...
Avastin and Lucentis are equivalent in treating age-related macular degeneration
2012-05-01
At two years, Avastin (bevacizumab) and Lucentis (ranibizumab injection), two widely used drugs to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD), improve vision when administered monthly or on an as needed basis, although greater improvements in vision were seen with monthly administration for this common, debilitating eye disease, according to researchers supported by the National Institutes of Health.
Of the two drugs, Avastin is most frequently used to treat AMD. However, prior to the Comparison of AMD Treatments Trials (CATT), a two-year clinical trial, the two ...

Only 1 in 5 bike share cyclists wears a helmet
2012-05-01
BOSTON – A national rise in public bike sharing programs could mean less air pollution and more exercise, an environmental and health win-win for people in the cities that host them, but according to researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, more than 80 percent of bike share riders are putting themselves at significant health risk by not wearing helmets.
"Head injury accounts for about a third of all bicycle injuries and about three-quarters of bicycle related deaths, so these are some pretty shocking numbers," says lead author and emergency medicine physician ...
Research breakthrough takes supercomputing out of the lab
2012-05-01
In the age of high-speed computing, the photon is king. However, producing the finely tuned particles of light is a complex and time-consuming process, until now.
Thanks to the work by a team of engineers led by Professor Amr Helmy of The Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, a novel solution has been identified that will make the production of special class of photons faster and easier.
Advanced computing technologies – such as ultra-secure communication systems and optical quantum computers – use light to quickly relay information. ...
