2012-05-12

PORTSMOUTH, NH, May 12, 2012 (Press-News.org) Yeoman Technology Group has announced the date for its "Your Ugly Baby - Getting a Handle on How Your Products Look Online" webinar event. The webinar, which will take place live on Wednesday, June 6th at 10 am Eastern, will be provided free of charge, but registration is limited. Interested executives may register via the Yeoman website: http://www.yeomantechnologies.com/events

According to Yeoman Technology Group President and event presenter Mike Healey, "A recent Yeoman study of over 1,000 items sold on Amazon found a whopping 70% contained errors or did not follow Amazon's own best practice recommendations for providing product details. This study further showed the same level of inaccuracy on Google and Bing product searches. Manufacturers who don't understand how product details evolve online end up with a mish-mash of 'ugly baby' product details that hurt their sales, offline and online."

The webinar will cover several strategies that can help attendees improve their online product data and gain an advantage over competitors. Attendees will walk away with a checklist of 'must do' items that can improve their online product merchandising.

The webinar is free to the public, but registration is limited and preference will be given to guests who match the session profile. Registration details are available at: http://www.yeomantechnologies.com/events/your-ugly-baby-getting-a-han ... ook-online

Bayer tried to reduce risks of MIC at WV plant, but didn't implement all hazard controls

2012-05-12

WASHINGTON — Bayer CropScience sought to reduce risks associated with the manufacturing and storage of the toxic chemical methyl isocyanate (MIC) at its processing plant in Institute, W.Va., says a new congressionally mandated report from the National Research Council. However, the company did not make an effort to incorporate all possible hazard control methods, and the report found that not all chemical manufacturing plants have adopted safer processes that aim to minimize or eliminate hazards. The committee that wrote the report recommended that the U.S. Chemical Safety ...

Blue Steel Acquisitions Concern as Businesses Struggle to Understand Consumers' Needs

2012-05-12

Blue Steel Acquisitions confirms consumers do not ask what the message of a marketing campaign is; therefore it is so important for businesses to understand their customers' needs. A study conducted by Gartner (Business Insider), a leading information technology research and advisory company, reports that companies have to step up their game when it comes to multi-channel marketing. Mark Fodor, CEO of Cross View confirms that the problem lies in the 's' word: "The opportunity for merchants to become more cross-channel is there, but they need to learn how to communicate ...

Mild traumatic brain injury may contribute to brain network dysfunction

2012-05-12

RICHMOND, Va. (May 10, 2012) – Even mild head injuries can cause significant abnormalities in brain function that last for several days, which may explain the neurological symptoms experienced by some individuals who have experienced a head injury associated with sports, accidents or combat, according to a study by Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine researchers. These findings, published in the May issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, advance research in the field of traumatic brain injury (TBI), enabling researchers to better understand what brain structural ...

Gene therapy for hearing loss: Potential and limitations

2012-05-12

Regenerating sensory hair cells, which produce electrical signals in response to vibrations within the inner ear, could form the basis for treating age- or trauma-related hearing loss. One way to do this could be with gene therapy that drives new sensory hair cells to grow. Researchers at Emory University School of Medicine have shown that introducing a gene called Atoh1 into the cochleae of young mice can induce the formation of extra sensory hair cells. Their results show the potential of a gene therapy approach, but also demonstrate its current limitations. The extra ...

In metallic glasses, researchers find a few new atomic structures

2012-05-12

MADISON – Drawing on powerful computational tools and a state-of-the-art scanning transmission electron microscope, a team of University of Wisconsin-Madison and Iowa State University materials science and engineering researchers has discovered a new nanometer-scale atomic structure in solid metallic materials known as metallic glasses. Published May 11 in the journal Physical Review Letters, the findings fill a gap in researchers' understanding of this atomic structure. This understanding ultimately could help manufacturers fine-tune such properties of metallic glasses ...

Pool Safety and Drowning: It Could Be Your Child

2012-05-12

With spring and summer comes the renewed enjoyment of swimming. Few activities are more attractive to children than swimming and swimming pools. However, parents can never really relax when children are in the water, especially those with young children. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) state that, "drowning is the leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4, and three children die every day as a result of drowning." Simply because your children are no longer toddlers does not mean they are without risk, drowning remains ...

Social Dating Sites and Prohibitions on Sex Offenders

2012-05-12

Back in the day, couples would meet at family gatherings, parties, bars or church outings. Today, in an age of electronic connectivity, old-fashioned courtship can seem quaint. Like so much else, dating has gone digital, and more and more people are turning to online dating sites to find love -- often successfully. Of course, the Web contains dangers as well as opportunities. Internet crimes are not an urban myth. But excessive concern about so-called predators should not lead to excessive infringement of the right to free speech and association, either. In one recent ...

Study shows benefit of new maintenance therapy for multiple myeloma

2012-05-12

Multiple myeloma is a form of cancer where the plasma cells in the bone marrow grow out of control, causing damage to bones as well as predisposing patients to anemia, infection and kidney failure. A medical procedure called autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, commonly known as a stem cell transplant, is frequently an important treatment option for many patients. Unfortunately, multiple myeloma continues to progress even after a transplant. A study published today in the New England Journal of Medicine offers promising news about a new long-term therapy, ...

Rise In Traumatic Brain Injuries Among Teens

2012-05-12

The media have drawn attention to the problem of brain injuries in teens by focusing on the increased likelihood of receiving such injuries from participation in contact sports like football and hockey. After all, males between the ages of 14 and 24 are at the highest risk of sustaining a brain injury. Team sports are not the cause of the majority of those injuries, though; teenagers are far more likely to suffer a traumatic brain injury during a motor vehicle collision than a football game. According to information provided by The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, ...
