InPreflight Pro 2.11.7 for Adobe InDesign Improves Startup Process

Zevrix Solutions announces InPreflight Pro 2.11.7, a maintenance update to its document preparation solution for Adobe InDesign. Described as “delightfully simple to use” by Macworld, InPreflight is an all-in-one solution to check InDesign documents, collect them for output and ship to final destination. The new version improves the app’s startup process and ensures that InPreflight Pro menu in InDesign can be created when multiple versions of InDesign are open.

Toronto (ON), Canada (April 29, 2014) — Zevrix Solutions today announces the release of InPreflight 2.11.7, a maintenance update to its document preparation solution for Adobe InDesign. InPreflight is a powerful all-in-one solution to check InDesign documents, collect them for output and ship to final destination. InPreflight helps graphics and print professionals prevent costly mistakes by uncovering hidden problems, as well as save disk space through smart batch-packaging and reduce production time and costs.

The new version fixes an issue in which the InPreflight Pro menu, which lets users launch InPreflight directly from InDesign, could not be created when multiple versions of InDesign were open. With previous versions, users had to close multiple InDesign copies to avoid an error during InDesign’s startup.

“While many graphic artists have heard of or used other preflight applications, they tend to be overly complicated,” writes James Dempsey in Macworld. “InPreflight is delightfully simple to use and does its job well.”

InPreflight Pro provides a complete document preparation solution for printers, prepress bureaus, ad agencies and publishing houses.

Automatic batch packaging:
InPreflight Pro can collect multiple InDesign jobs automatically with the option to package all files into one folder, eliminating the need to collect the same links multiple times for each design and saving users gigabytes of disk space and hours of production time.

Quality control:
InPreflight quickly checks InDesign documents for common problems such as missing links, fonts, unwanted colors, illegal link locations and more.

Graphic preflight reports:
Users can print graphic preflight reports and save them as PDF files with the option to include a detailed paragraph styles report for typography professionals.

Pricing and Availability:
InPreflight Pro can be purchased from Zevrix website for US$99.95 (Studio version: $39.95), as well as from authorized resellers. Trial version is available for download. Update is free for licensed users of version 2, and US$55.98 from earlier versions. InPreflight is available for Mac OS X 10.5-10.9, a Universal Binary, and works with Adobe InDesign CS3-CC.

PAC Drops Endorsement of Rep. Joe Barton Due to his Surprise Support for Amnesty

“Rep. Joe Barton is playing the Republican trickster game where he says he wants to give illegal aliens a form of legal status but not citizenship and voting rights,” said William Gheen President of ALIPAC.

Raleigh, NC, USA (April 28, 2014) — Contact: Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) Press@alipac.us / (866) 703-0864

Surprised by Congressman Joe Barton (R-TX) (202-225-2002) announcement last Friday in the Dallas Morning news that he now supports a path to legalization, through a new guest worker program that would remove current penalties of law for millions of illegal immigration, ALIPAC is dropping the national organization’s standing endorsement of his campaign and adding him to the list of GOP lawmakers that support amnesty for illegal immigrants instead.

Changing America’s existing immigration laws which are designed to deter illegal immigration in order to accommodate tens of millions of illegal immigrants is a form of amnesty. Furthermore, illegal immigrants that are accommodated will one day vote against any candidate that supports borders and equitable laws in America!

“Rep. Joe Barton is playing the Republican trickster game where he says he wants to give illegal aliens a form of legal status but not citizenship and voting rights,” said William Gheen President of ALIPAC. “You do not have to be a legal scholar or a lawyer to know the courts will quickly strike down any attempt of Congress to create a second class version of citizenship. Joe Barton’s illegal immigrants would eventually be given voting rights by the courts thus destroying any future hopes for border or immigration law enforcement. His promises of border security are bitter lies that will never come to fruition if the amnesty portion of his expected bill ever becomes law!”

Many Republican lawmakers have recently been added to the ‘GOP Traitor’ list due to their efforts to help Barack Obama change existing laws to accommodate tens of millions of illegal immigrants with a form of amnesty called ‘immigration reform’. GOP lawmakers refuse to use the word amnesty to describe their actions because they are quite aware that more than 80% of Republican voters reject amnesty because they know such actions will only lead to more illegal immigration in the future.

In 1987, Congress passed the Simpson-Mazzolie Act which granted amnesty for approximately 3 million illegal aliens. Almost all of the enforcement promises of the bill were never adequately implemented. This resulted in the current 12-20 million illegal immigrants in America.

“Using the lessons learned and mathematics established by the 1987 amnesty for illegals, we can estimate that any new form of amnesty, legalization, guest worker visa, etc… will result in more than 40 million new illegal immigrants entering America in the next two decades!” said William Gheen.

ALIPAC has dropped all support for Representative Joe Barton which had been originally based on his high rankings and grades with NumbersUSA. ALIPAC is now seeking another candidate to run replace Joe Barton who has betrayed a majority of his constituents by supporting the interests of the costly and deadly illegal immigrant invasion of America over American taxpayers.

For more information about which federal candidates support or oppose amnesty for illegal immigrants, please review our standing endorsements (CLICK HERE) or visit http://www.ALIPAC.us.

Cure Type 2 Diabetes Website Launches to Help Type 2 Diabetes Patients

It is estimated that 347 million people in the world have diabetes. However, a Bristol UK man, diagnosed as diabetic in 2001, now claims he is off all diabetes medications, and has launched a website to help others with Type 2 Diabetes.

Bristol, England, April 27, 2014 (Straight Line PR) — The World Health Organization estimates that 347 million people in the world have diabetes. Over time, diabetes can damage the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys and nerves. Traditional medicine claims there is no cure. However, a Bristol England man who was diagnosed as a diabetic in 2001 now claims he is a “former diabetic” and has launched a website to help those with Type 2 Diabetes live healthier lifestyles.

It is estimated that DIABETES is written on the death certificate of more than 4 million people each year, as the primary cause of death. This fact is well known to Nazir Hussain, a Bristol UK resident whose life was turned upside down by his disease in 2001. “When I was diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes it felt like a death sentence,” said Hussain. “I pursued all of the traditional solutions as I studied the disease. Unfortunately, they made me worse. While it took me many years of studying and experimenting, as of 2012 I can claim that I am still a diabetic, but I am a diabetic who no longer required any medication, and I feel fantastic.”

Hussain has launched CureYourType2Diabetes.com ( http://www.CureYourType2Diabetes.com ), a membership website dedicated to sharing his experiences of living with the disease, including how he successfully managed to get off all of his medications and assisting those who are looking for answers.

He has created a short introductory video which can be found here: http://youtu.be/NjGxLgovlMU

The website is dedicated to helping Type 2 Diabetes patients. While Hussain is not a medical doctor, he has enlisted the expertise of Prof. Charles Clarke, a noted Diabetes specialist who will help to support members.

Hussain has created CureYourType2Diabetes.com ( http://www.CureYourType2Diabetes.com ) to help sufferers of Type 2 Diabetes to find ways to reduce their need for medication, lower their weight, and lower their risks of complications from Type 2 Diabetes.

The website is an invaluable resource for diabetics, enabling them to get information that will help them to address unanswered questions, and to discover tried and tested methods to lower medication requirements.

About CureYourType2Diabetes.com:
Since 2011, Nazir Hussain has been sharing his experience with other Type 2 diabetes sufferers. CureYourType2Diabetes.com is his newly-launched web site for people with Type 2 Diabetes. Members get access to over a hundred educational videos; 24 x 7 email support & expert advice from Nazir Hussain, Professor Charles Clarke, and their trained staff; regularly scheduled webinars; nutritional and exercise advice, and more.

High-frequency Trading in Equities Explained at The Speed Traders Workshop with Edgar Perez

Edgar Perez, former McKinsey and IBM consultant, is a global expert, author of The Speed Traders, Knightmare on Wall Street, and the course director of The Speed Traders Workshop, “How Banks, Hedge and Mutual Funds and Brokers Battle Markets ‘RIGGED’ by Wall Street’s ‘Flash Boys’, High-frequency Trading, Exchanges and Dark Pools”, in New York City, Washington DC, Boston, Munich, London, Dubai, Brussels, Tokyo, Beijing and Shanghai.

New York, NY, USA (April 28, 2014) — As of 2009, some studies suggested HFT firms accounted for 60-73% of all US equity trading volume, with that number falling to approximately 50% in 2012. High-frequency traders move in and out of short-term positions aiming to capture sometimes just a fraction of a cent in profit on every trade. HFT firms do not employ significant leverage, accumulate positions or hold their portfolios overnight. As a result, HFT has a potential Sharpe ratio (a measure of risk and reward) thousands of times higher than traditional buy-and-hold strategies. High-frequency traders typically compete against other HFTs, rather than long-term investors. HFT firms make up the low margins with incredible high volumes of transactions, frequently numbering in the millions.

HFT may cause new types of serious risks and dangers to the financial system. Algorithmic and HFT were both found to have contributed to volatility in the May 6, 2010 Flash Crash, when high-frequency liquidity providers rapidly withdrew from the market. Several European countries have proposed curtailing or banning HFT due to concerns about volatility. Other complaints against HFT include the argument that some HFT firms scrape profits from investors when index funds rebalance their portfolios. Whether that indeed is the case will be explained by author Edgar Perez at The Speed Traders Workshop, “How Banks, Hedge and Mutual Funds and Brokers Battle Markets ‘RIGGED’ by Wall Street’s ‘Flash Boys’, High-frequency Trading, Exchanges and Dark Pools” (http://www.thespeedtradersworkshop.com).

The Speed Traders Workshop is the first and most comprehensive initiation to the world of high-frequency trading., opens the door to the secretive world of computerized low-latency trading, the most controversial form of investing today; in the name of protecting the algorithms they have spent so much time perfecting, speed traders almost never talk to the press and try to disclose as little as possible about how they operate. Further information about this workshop can be found at http://www.goldennetworking.net.

The Speed Traders Workshop, to be held in New York City, Washington DC, Boston, Munich, London, Dubai, Brussels, Tokyo, Beijing and Shanghai, covers the latest research currently available and reveals how high-frequency trading players are operating in global markets and driving the development of electronic trading at breakneck speeds from the U.S. and Europe to Japan, India, and Brazil. The “flash crash”, the suspended BATS IPO, the botched Facebook IPO, Knight Capital’s trading malfunction and NASDAQ’s Flash Freeze are just a few of the milestones in the history of high-frequency trading that will be dissected with participants.

Knightmare on Wall Street, the fascinating story of Knight Capital put together by course director Edgar Perez, was the most favorably reviewed Kindle edition book on Amazon in 2013, with an average rating of 5 out of five stars. Knight Capital, founded by Kenneth Pasternak and Walter Raquet in 1995, had seen its fortunes change as U.S. regulators made a series of changes in the structure of financial markets and computers were progressively expanding their share of trading. The Flash Crash, the infamous 1,000 point drop of the DJIA on May 6, 2010 (the largest one-day point decline in history), illustrated how market structure problems could almost instantaneously cascade from one market participant to the rest.

Mr. Perez is widely regarded as the preeminent global expert and speaker in the specialized areas of algorithmic and high-frequency trading. He is also author of The Speed Traders, An Insider’s Look at the New High-Frequency Trading Phenomenon That is Transforming the Investing World, published in English, Chinese and Bahasa Indonesia. He contributes to The New York Times, UltraHighFrequencyTrading.com and China’s International Finance News and Sina Finance.

Why Stock Market Not Rigged by High-frequency Trading at The Speed Traders Workshop 2014

Edgar Perez, former McKinsey and IBM consultant, is a global expert, author of The Speed Traders, Knightmare on Wall Street, and the course director of The Speed Traders Workshop, “How Banks, Hedge and Mutual Funds and Brokers Battle Markets ‘RIGGED’ by Wall Street’s ‘Flash Boys’, High-frequency Trading, Exchanges and Dark Pools”, in New York City, Washington DC, Boston, Munich, London, Dubai, Brussels, Tokyo, Beijing and Shanghai.

New York, NY, USA (April 28, 2014) — Michael Lewis, the famous Liar’s Poker author, couldn’t have timed Flash Boys better if he’d tried. His blockbuster new book about high-frequency trading came out in a blaze of publicity during exactly the same week as a little-known Wall Street company named Virtu was scheduled to start marketing its initial public offering of shares, according to Reuters’ Felix Salmon. For him, Flash Boys is unapologetically polemical: The New York Times reviewed it twice on the day it came out, with Andrew Ross Sorkin calling it a “a make-your-blood-boil read” and Janet Maslin saying that it “is guaranteed to make blood boil.”

According to Salmon, Lewis’ pugnacious style is fine and good-journalism should make you angry. But the problem with Flash Boys, he claims, is that the demands that master storyteller Lewis makes of his narrative don’t align well with the structural problems of HFT that Lewis the journalist should want to expose. The result is that the general public, after reading this book or watching Lewis on 60 Minutes, will think that the scandal of HFT is that they’re being ripped off, and that the stock market is a scam.

The Speed Traders Workshop, “How Banks, Hedge and Mutual Funds and Brokers Battle Markets ‘RIGGED’ by Wall Street’s ‘Flash Boys’, High-frequency Trading, Exchanges and Dark Pools” (http://www.thespeedtradersworkshop.com), demonstrates why neither of these statements is true. The Speed Traders Workshop is the first and most comprehensive initiation to the world of high-frequency trading with Edgar Perez, author of Knightmare on Wall Street (http://www.knightmareonwallstreet.com), and will open the door to the secretive world of computerized low-latency trading, the most controversial form of investing today; in the name of protecting the algorithms they have spent so much time perfecting, speed traders almost never talk to the press and try to disclose as little as possible about how they operate.

Evolution of Securities Investing at High-frequency Trading Workshop in New York City

Edgar Perez, former McKinsey and IBM consultant, is a global expert, author of The Speed Traders, Knightmare on Wall Street, and the course director of The Speed Traders Workshop, “How Banks, Hedge and Mutual Funds and Brokers Battle Markets ‘RIGGED’ by Wall Street’s ‘Flash Boys’, High-frequency Trading, Exchanges and Dark Pools”, in New York City, Washington DC, Boston, Munich, London, Dubai, Brussels, Tokyo, Beijing and Shanghai.

New York, NY, USA (April 28, 2014) — The development of federal securities law was spurred by the stock market crash of 1929, and the resulting Great Depression. In the period leading up to the stock market crash, companies issued stock and enthusiastically promoted the value of their company to induce investors to purchase those securities. Doesn’t’ that sound eerily familiar to investors at the beginning of the Internet era?

Brokers in turn sold this stock to investors based on promises of large profits but with little disclosure of relevant information about the company. In many cases, the promises made by companies and brokers had little or no substantive basis, or were wholly fraudulent. With thousands of investors buying up stock in hopes of huge profits, the market was in a state of speculative frenzy that ended in October 1929, when the market crashed as panicky investors sold off their investments en masse.

Pain Management In-Office Procedures Decline with Reimbursement Rates

The proper business management of an Pain Management Center will be the key to success going forward, according to industry professionals.

Dallas, Texas, April 26, 2014 – In an article published by The Ambulatory M&A Advisor, Dr. Rudi Gari of Texas Pain Relief Group weighs in on the matter, noting that physician-owners of Pain Management Centers need to keep the business side of their practice in mind, even if it doesn’t come second nature.

“Physicians are typically not the best business people,” Gari said. “You may be the best doctor the world has ever known, but if you don’t know how to manage your finances and manage your office, you’re not going to have an office to practice in.”

This emphasis on business is a result of declining reimbursement rates, according to Dr. Al Liceaga, Medical Director of Orangewood Surgical Center and Regional Pain Treatment Medical Center.

“ASCs reimbursement for procedures are often paid on only one CPT code and global fees now limit payment and reduce access to care by not allowing reimbursement for certain procedures within the global time period,” he said. “Reimbursement for hardware and implants has dramatically changed also. The majority of implants are now inclusive of the global fee.”

These changes in reimbursement rates had a noticeable impact on in-office procedures, with higher costs causing a reduction in such procedures.
