Prompt Proofing: Marketing for Small- and Medium-Sized Businesses
2012-08-10
This month's post focuses on the most effective marketing techniques for small businesses. Lacking the budget of larger companies and corporations, small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) may feel that they are at a disadvantage when it comes to marketing. While it is true that SMBs cannot afford the brand promotion and advertising of larger companies, this does not mean that they cannot market effectively.
SMBs need to think outside of the box and come up with unusual and creative methods. Anything that increases exposure will help drive traffic to your site or people ...
Spectrum Business Solutions Announces a New Accessory That Leverages Smart Device High-Res Cameras to Disrupt Traditional Document Scanners - Fast Imaging and Improved Data Collection
2012-08-10
ScanJig, unveiled at Kickstarter.com, holds a smart phone/tablet in the correct position as you change document pages. The product works with your mobile document scanner app to increase productivity, get accurate image size and reduce adjustments.
The Problem
Document scanner apps required you to stand over each page and move the smart device until you get a full view, take the image without shaking, then use the app to better define page borders, deskew images and adjust quality.
The process is very time consuming and if you need to do more than one page the ...
Genomic study of rare children's cancer yields possible prognostic tool
2012-08-09
SALT LAKE CITY—A new study of the genetic makeup, or genome, of Ewing sarcoma, a rare cancer that strikes children, teenagers, and young adults, has produced multiple discoveries: a previously unknown sarcoma subtype, genetic factors related to long-term survival, and identification of a genetic change between the primary and metastatic stages of the disease that could lead to better, more targeted treatment.
Researchers from Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI) at the University of Utah used a new, advanced technology called molecular inversion probes (MIPs) to analyze ...
NIST focuses on testing standards to support lab on a chip commercialization
2012-08-09
Lab on a chip (LOC) devices—microchip-size systems that can prepare and analyze tiny fluid samples with volumes ranging from a few microliters (millionth of a liter) to sub-nanoliters (less than a billionth of a liter)—are envisioned to one day revolutionize how laboratory tasks such as diagnosing diseases and investigating forensic evidence are performed. However, a recent paper* from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) argues that before LOC technology can be fully commercialized, testing standards need to be developed and implemented.
"A testing ...
Depression linked with increased risk of peripheral artery disease
2012-08-09
Depression was linked with an increased risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in a study of more than one thousand men and women with heart disease conducted by researchers at the San Francisco VA Medical Center and the University of California, San Francisco.
PAD is a circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the limbs – usually the legs and feet – resulting in pain, reduced mobility and, in extreme cases, gangrene and amputation.
The study was published electronically on July 26, 2012, in the Journal of the American Heart Association.

Scientists use worms to unearth cancer drug targets
2012-08-09
BETHESDA, MD – August 9, 2012 -- Through novel experiments involving small nematode worms, scientists from Wyoming have discovered several genes that may be potential targets for drug development in the ongoing war against cancer. Specifically, researchers hypothesize that inhibiting these genes could reverse certain key traits associated with cancer cells. This discovery is published in the August 2012 issue of the Genetics Society of America's journal GENETICS (www.genetics.org).
"Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide," said David S. Fay, Ph.D., a researcher ...
New Genetics educational resource promotes active learning
2012-08-09
BETHESDA, MD – August 9, 2012 -- As upper level undergraduate genetics instructors plan their syllabi for the fall semester, the Genetics Society of America's GENETICS journal offers a new educational resource, articles called "Primers." These articles are designed to bring cutting-edge scientific research into the classroom by making scientific papers accessible to students.
The principal learning goal of the Primer is to "make research and genetics accessible to a much broader audience, not just researchers, their postdocs and grad students, but also to undergraduates ...

Scientists discover how iron levels and a faulty gene cause bowel cancer
2012-08-09
HIGH LEVELS of iron could raise the risk of bowel cancer by switching on a key pathway in people with faults in a critical anti-cancer gene, according to a study published in Cell Reports* today (Thursday).
Cancer Research UK scientists, based at the University of Birmingham and the Beatson Institute for Cancer Research in Glasgow, found bowel cancers were two to three times more likely to develop in mice with a faulty APC gene that were fed high amounts of iron compared to mice who still had a working APC gene.
In contrast, mice with a faulty APC gene fed a diet low ...
Urban poor plagued by 'burdens of place'
2012-08-09
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Most of America's urban cores were designed for walking but offer little in the way of supermarkets, healthy restaurants and other amenities for residents to walk to, according to a study led by a Michigan State University scholar.
The study is one of the first to show that poor residents living in declining urban neighborhoods want healthy food choices – evidenced by their willingness to travel long distances to find them. Past research has generally assumed that poor people will shop at whatever store is closest.
But compared with suburban residents, ...
