SLIEMA, MALTA, October 27, 2010 (Press-News.org) Jackpot Games Ltd announced today that it has been shortlisted for the One to Watch award from the online gaming magazine, E-Gaming Review, after the publication released the list of candidates on the 20th October.
The Malta-based online casino launched in April this year and is home to over 90 instant play casino games. Its candidature for the highly valued accolade demonstrates the appeal the brand has and the company's plans for the coming months and 2011. Jackpot Games CEO, Ramon Azzopardi, highlighted this by commenting:
"Jackpot Games has come a long way quickly, and has no intentions of resting on a solid start. The company roadmap for 2011 demonstrates that we are prepared to not only invest but to innovate to secure the company's position and to bring the Jackpot Games level of experience and service to new markets. It is this combination that no doubt played a large part in our nomination."
The casino is preparing to broadcast multiple live casino games to its TV channel, Sky Channel 860 as well as simultaneously to its website. Integral to this project, and firmly part of the road map, is a mobile betting platform that will allow players to play via mobile phones- plus a unique offering of RNG mobile casino games that will also cater for multi-player experience all set to launch early next year.
In an environment of economic uncertainty and legislative change the industry has largely sought to consolidate in 2010. The One to Watch award, therefore, is an opportunity to celebrate those firms that have invested and innovated in 2010 so that they are well positioned for a strong 2011. Azzopardi pointed to Jackpot Games' launch, investment in TV, future scope and early success as showing the potential for new, European-focused online casino brands in 2010 and beyond, also adding:
"The title of the award suggests the focus is directed at those firms that have seen change in 2010 as an opportunity and to those that have laid the foundation now for success in 2011. We believe Jackpot Games has done just this and nomination is credit to that vision and the team behind it. We look forward to the award ceremony on the 24th November 2010 in London."
Jackpot Games is based in Malta and licensed by the Government of Malta within the EU. It offers over 90 different casino games through NetEnt software and is independently audited for game fairness. The company supports responsible gaming and complies with local and international law.

Quakes don't completely shake China's environmental gains, thanks to conservation programs
2010-10-26
EAST LANSING, Mich. – The impact of China's devastating 2008 earthquake was substantially lessened by environmental conservation programs for some of the country's most fragile habitats, according to research published in a journal of the Royal Swedish Academy of Science this week.
Analysis of satellite imagery and field data by scientists at Michigan State University and in China show the quake – and the resulting landslides – affected 10 percent of the forests covering the mountains that are home to endangered species, including the beloved giant panda. But it could ...
Odor coding in mammals is more complex than previously thought
2010-10-26
A new study in the Journal of General Physiology (JGP) shows that the contribution of odorant receptors (ORs) to olfactory response in mammals is much more complex than previously thought, with important consequences for odorant encoding and information transfer about odorants to the brain. The study appears online on October 25 (www.jgp.org).
ORs, which provide a system for mammals to discriminate between many different odors, form a large, diverse group of G protein–coupled receptors corresponding to around 1,000 functionally distinct receptors in rodents and 350 in ...
High erythropoietin levels indicate increased risk of death
2010-10-26
High erythropoietin levels in people over age 85 indicate a higher risk of death, according to a study published in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj100347.pdf.
Erythropoietin is a hormone created in the kidneys to stimulate production of red blood cells. Production is triggered by impaired oxygen delivery to the kidney because of anemia or low blood oxygen levels. In patients with chronic heart failure, high erythropoietin levels predict higher mortality.
The researchers looked at data from the Leiden ...
Why does lack of sleep affect us differently? Study hints it may be in our genes
2010-10-26
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Ever wonder why some people breeze along on four hours of sleep when others can barely function? It may be in our genes, according to new research and an accompanying editorial published in the October 26, 2010, print issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.
The study looked at people who have a gene variant that is closely associated with narcolepsy, a sleep disorder that causes excessive daytime sleepiness. However, having the gene variant, called DQB1 *0602, does not mean that a person will develop narcolepsy; ...
Immune cells deploy traps to catch and kill pathogens
2010-10-26
A new study reveals that two enzymes help immune cells deploy pathogen-killing traps by unraveling and using the chromatin (DNA and its associated proteins) contained in the cells' nuclei to form defensive webs. The study appears online on October 25 in The Journal of Cell Biology (www.jcb.org).
Neutrophils, the most common type of white blood cells, are difficult to study because they live for only about six hours. So Arturo Zychlinsky and colleagues, from the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology in Berlin, created a cell-free system that includes neutrophil nuclei ...

2010-10-26

Now a new study suggests outcomes are also better when radiation therapy is combined with cetuximab, a targeted therapy. The data will be presented at the annual meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology, October 31st through November 4th in San Diego.
The study, conducted at Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, analyzed tumors from sequentially treated ...
