June 4, 2013 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Axicon Auto ID Ltd, a world leader in barcode verification, announce the launch of a new barcode verifier range with the choice of two industrial protection (IP) ratings.

Oxford, UK, June 04, 2013 – Axicon Auto ID Ltd, a world leader in barcode verification, announce the launch of a new barcode verifier range with the choice of two industrial protection (IP) ratings. As an extension to the widely used 7000 series, two new models are now available, the Axicon 7015-IP50 and the Axicon 7015-IP65. The new IP systems are complete with a state of the art CCD read head and application software and present a host of features including ISO/ANSI verification standards, automatic variable aperture, IP50 or IP65 rating, multi-language user interface, USB connectivity, automatic calibration reminder, product lookup facility and data-content structure checking for GS1-128 and GS1 DataBar.

The Axicon 7015-IP50 carries an IP50 rating which warrants protection against harmful dust particles, while the Axicon 7015-IP65 carries an IP65 rating which warrants protection against all dust ingress and low pressure water spray from all directions.

The IP50 rated system is therefore ideal and specifically designed for operation in dusty environments and the IP65 rated system is ideal where a higher level of protection is required including use in hose-down areas such as food production.

Passing comment, James Bernard Chairman of Axicon Auto ID Ltd said, “We are delighted to announce the launch of our new industrial protection verifier range, it further enhances our highly popular 7000 series verifiers and provides our users with greater peace of mind when using the verifiers in harsher working environments,” he continued, “we also offer the flexibility to choose from two IP ratings so that the customer can select the appropriate system for their specific operational needs.”

About the company, the Axicon Group is a world leading barcode verification solution provider. Based in the UK, Axicon Auto ID Ltd specialise in barcode verification, barcode images and labels and distribute their product range through a network of international partners across the globe.

Enservio to Set up Mobile Office to Help Recovery Efforts in Moore, Oklahoma

May 31, 2013 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Helping CAT teams, Claimants and Carriers Inventory and Value Lost Contents for Speedier Claims Processing and Settlements.

Moore, OK (USA), May 30th, 2013 — National carriers responding to relief efforts in Moore, Oklahoma, have set up an “Insurance Village” at the First Baptist Church. Moore is a suburb south of Oklahoma City that was severely hit by the deadliest storm system to strike the “Tornado Alley” area since 2011. Aiding these carriers, Enservio announced today it will roll in a mobile RV office equipped with laptop computers, cell phones and workstations at this location. The mobile office will be used to support local CAT adjusters, property appraisers, carriers and claimants in an effort to expedite claims processing, contents inventory and valuation services.

Enservio’s team of Service on Site (SOS) field inventory specialists will be on the ground as well to provide hands-on contents inventory services. At Enservio’s mobile RV office, CAT adjusters, claimants, and local field appraisers will have real-time access to MyPropertyLoss.com, an online contents valuation listing service for claimants, and ListAssist, a telephonic inventory capture service. ListAssist offers insureds a trained operator over the telephone to help navigate the process of recreating their inventory. These applications offer robust content recreation and allows insureds more visibility into the process as well as speeding up claim settlements.

Enservio has established an emergency catastrophe line that carrier adjusters can call for contents services help. The toll-free number to call is 1-855.864.0456.

“Our hearts go out to the people of Moore, Oklahoma. Our mobile RV office staff will help claimants on behalf of our carrier partners and the insurance industry to accurately capture and value thousands of their lost items in order to get these claims paid as swiftly as possible and help families regain some degree of normalcy,” said Jon McNeil, Enservio CEO. “We have the means, the talent and the right technology to get the job done.”

Claim settlements will also be expedited by the use of ReStore pre-paid debit cards that Enservio carrier partners will issue to claimants for convenient access to badly needed funds. Upon activation, the debit cards can be used immediately to purchase goods and services or to access cash at an ATM.

Farmers Insurance and 15 other insurance companies have set up command posts to aid in property recovery efforts caused by a tornado devastation that is reportedly estimated to cost up to $5 billion in insured property losses. Other organizations camped at the Insurance Village include FEMA and Oklahoma Emergency Management.

About Enservio:

Cool FlipBook Creator Now Provides Social Media Integration

May 23, 2013 staronepr Leave a comment

FlipBook Creator, a software program that lets users create Flash and HTML5 flipping e-books in minutes, now allows for these e-books to be shared via social media using simple tools on the software interface.

Guangzhou, China (May 23, 2013) — Users of FlipBook Creator can now share their designs on any social media website, thanks to integrated tools which make doing so easy. The flipbook software, released on FlipPageMaker.com, enables e-book publishers to create a page flipping book by converting a PDF file and adding colors, backgrounds, sounds, and more. They can then share the e-book online, allowing business associates, customers, and friends to view the information put into the page flipping book.

The social media integration function of the software allows users to share their e-books with readers online. These can be sent via email or uploaded to a social network. Flipbooks can be easily read on sites like Facebook Twitter, and MySpace. While it is possible to upload the e-book online, it is just as easy to send a URL to others, where the book is located. Even people who do not use social media sites may still be enticed to look at the flipbook; hearing the name is often enough to encourage them since these social websites are so well known.

Within FlipBook Creator, users can create flipping Flash books and output them to readers on social networking websites. Social media integration is possible with a few simple steps:

1. The user launches page flip software, FlipBook Creator. A list of settings is located on the left-hand side of the interface.
2. Within this menu, go to “Tool Bar Settings” and view the “Buttons Bar”. The “Share Button” provides access to the “Social Share Button”.
3. On the “Social Share Button”, change the values setting to “Show”.
4. Click on the “Apply Change” option to save the setting. The page flipping e-book will now be configured for viewing on social media websites.

When users make social share available, there is a very good possibility the online e-book will receive more traffic. These few simple steps enable the book to be read on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and other social media websites. Since so many people do their searching, information gathering, and purchasing online, and much of those on social media, having an e-book available on social media exposes it to a broad readership.

In addition a Google Analytics feature is built in. It is therefore possible to track reader behavior, how many visitors read the e-book, which pages they saw, how much time they spent reading it, what links they clicked on, and more. To find out what other features FlipBook Creator has and about social media integration, go to http://www.flippagemaker.com/flippingbook-maker.

Geothermic Fuel Cell™ Prototype Moves IEP One Step Closer to Commercialization

May 17, 2013 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Independent Energy Partners, Inc. (IEP) with partner Delphi Corporation successfully tested an initial single stack geothermic fuel cell™ (GFC) prototype, keeping IEP on track for field testing and initial oil production at a test site by mid 2015.

Denver, CO, May 17, 2013 — Independent Energy Partners, Inc. successfully tested an initial single stack geothermic fuel cell™ (GFC) prototype, keeping them on track for field testing and initial oil production at a test site by mid 2015. The fuel cells will be used to heat underground oil shale formations in situ or in place. Testing confirms the fuel cells will be able to generate the high temperatures needed to extract both liquid and gas hydrocarbons from the oil shale while simultaneously generating clean electricity.

“This is a huge milestone for us as it confirms the concept and sets us nicely on the path toward full-scale prototype and field testing without any unexpected delays,” said Al Forbes, IEP’s President and CEO. “The Delphi team’s deep experience in solid oxide fuel cells certainly helped us meet this milestone confidently.”

IEP has put more than ten years into patenting, designing and developing the geothermic fuel cell technology using the US Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to help refine the concept and Delphi Corporation’s solid oxide fuel cell expertise to develop, build and test the GFC prototype.

Delphi Corporation was chosen to build the GFCs because of their expertise in solid oxide fuel cell technology and manufacturing capabilities. The partnership is already paying off with this successful first-round prototype passing both internal testing at Delphi and additional outside testing at the Colorado School of Mines Colorado Fuel Cell Center in preparation for the large-scale stack testing later this year.

“It’s exciting—especially in new clean technologies—to have such a successful first prototype,” said Dan Hennessy, chief engineer, Advanced Engineering, Delphi Powertrain Systems. “Our team is already working on assembling the next prototype and anticipating similar success when we test it later this year.”

Geothermic Fuel Cells will expedite nature’s underground heating process to turn kerogen into a producible, usable oil product. Current technologies require either surface mining and crushing the shale or using large amounts of coal-fired electricity to power heating rods inserted in a formation. IEP’s technology becomes self-fueling after brief start-up period. The natural byproduct of the fuel cell is heat, which heats the kerogen in the formation to a vapor that can be transported and collected above ground. Most of the electricity produced by the fuel cells is available as a clean, base load energy source for local utilities.

With US oil shale reserves estimated at more than 1.5 trillion barrels of oil that are not currently viable to recover, IEP’s technology stands to open huge energy reserves in the United States and abroad. The GFCs have many additional applications, including a growing interest in their use in landfill pyrolysis to both reduce landfill mass and create clean, base load energy for municipalities.

Field-testing is scheduled for early to mid 2015.

About Independent Energy Partners:
Independent Energy Partners (IEP) is a clean technology and resource company based in Denver, Colorado focused on the economic and environmentally responsible recovery of unconventional hydrocarbon resources utilizing its patented, breakthrough in-situ Geothermic Fuel Cell™(GFC™) system. IEP was founded in 1991 and has been involved in the development of more than 15 energy projects employing a wide range of technologies. The company holds exclusive rights to broad, patented GFC processes and technology in the U.S. and Canada as well as its own oil shale resources containing more than 2.0 billion barrels of oil. Patenting and technological development has been underway since 2004 and has been vetted by the US Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. IEP holds strategic partnerships with Total Petroleum, Uintah Resources, Inc., Delphi Corporation and Colorado School of Mines. Learn more about the compan y and its technology at www.iepm.com.
