SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller by Mods4cars Now Available for Audi R8 Spyder

November 13, 2013 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

The aftermarket SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller module offered by Mods4cars is now available for the Audi R8 Spyder. It allows drivers to open or close the top from the factory remote key fob or from the center console switch, using one-touch convenience and while the car is moving. A custom designed wiring harness is included.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), November 12th, 2013 — Effective immediately, the SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller offered by aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars is available for the Audi R8 Spyder. It adds convenient and intelligent functionality to the car. On one hand the convertible top can be opened using quick and automatic one-touch operation and while the car is in motion. It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch for the duration of the operation. SmartTOP owners just tap the switch briefly to activate the top.

On the other hand the module allows top operation from the original key fob remote. “Opening and closing the top from a distance by using the original key fob is a very popular feature.” says PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “Our customers can start opening the top while they are still approaching the car.” Sven Tornow continues. “This can come in handy to air out the car quickly in situations where direct sunlight has heated the inside up. Also it is possible to quickly close the top from afar at the first sign of rain.” All that is necessary is the original key fob remote. No physical or programming or changes are done to the original remote fobs.

Each module comes with a few bonus features such as an extended mode that allows top operation to continue while the engine is turned on or off. This allows drivers to start the top operation from the remote, get in and start driving, while the top finishes its cycle automatically.

Just like the well thought out functionality, installation has been designed to be as easy as possible. A custom designed plug-and-play wiring harness is part of the kit. This harness uses original OEM plugs to guarantee perfect and secure fit while simply connecting the module with the car electronics.

The SmartTOP for Audi R8 Spyder comes in the new, exclusive Mods4cars product enclosure. This custom fitted enclosure was designed with ergonomics and sleek looks in mind. It’s very slim and easily fits in any hollow space in the car. Two LEDs aid during the installation process by showing useful status information.

Configuration of the module is simplified by the standard USB port present on each module. It allows users to use a Windows or Mac support software to adjust personal settings and update the product firmware. “We continuously work on bringing new and improved functionality to existing modules. Updates are available online and free of charge, so even our existing customers always profit from updates.” says Sven Tornow. Programming can also be done in the car, without the need to remove the module.

The add-on kit for the Audi R8 Spyder is available for 249 Euros + tax. For other Audi models such as the convertible editions of A3, A4, A5 and TT roadster SmartTOP kits are available as well. All major brands are supported: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Harlequins Enigma Urges Fans to Visit their New Beta Page

harlequins enigma owner åge riisnes has been experiencing troubles with their bandvista page from time to time with slow widgets & widgets that wont work & similar. wix.com might prove a great alternative with up to date features.

Bergen, Norway, November 11, 2013 — harlequins enigma have a beta page up now at url: http://harlequinsenigma.wix.com/home – harlequins enigma urges fans to visit & hopefully adapt to an easier site. the site will be built further upon announces åge riisnes.

the harlequins enigma name is based upon the words expectation as in dolls, their origin, & the origin vs real people. åge once had a lighter with a girl on, showing a little of her face with a yellow rose & two identical females as guardians at each side of her. in the picture also a walking creature that looks like a walking mouse, pregnant. this is part of what harlequins enigma is about: expectation. they value hope for something better, as an eternal flame. There is also a different side of harlequins enigma which åge found as an alternative in the oxford dictionary, where harlqeuins enigma could be a demon rider. thinking of that he wonders if that might be an ancient being that might
be the boss of our universe.

fl studio has dominated åge`s musical world. he sort of treated it like protracker & it has for him a nice feel. i.e. pc keyboard instead of synth via midi, which makes him able to push the buttons without looking at the keys almost. at the same time his ear is sharp & piano roll in fl studio is like a nice game of tetris. his scales & experience got even sharper in 2009 as he went back to the amiga & composed tracks there. when he came back to fl studio again, he felt as he had become a better musician, though he`d prefer to be called a composer. he forgets easily & have become clumsy at times when he try to recall a line, so he don`t perform much. it is easier for him to do an impulse line of tetris instead composing.

åge riisnes sort of speak the language of tangerine dream & jarre & vangelis in the form of arpegiator based tracking & electronical music via the amiga. it is funny that he have made coops with all of them. he cannot explain in details, but after a psychiatry treatment in 1998, he got the impression that psychiatric hospitals are experts on the brain & that they talk much in telepathy on some sort of frequency. this became common as the years passed & when he did his comeback in 2008, he got visitors mentally/spiritually from many of the corners of our globe that led to coops with tangerine dream, jean michel jarre, klaus schulze, vangelis, kitaro, kate bush, dave weckl, chick corea, jan garbarek, atjazz & many others. thanx to them he is much better now then he would have been on his own. åge loves that the music is emotional, that sets you in a mood that can be happy, mellow, sad.. he also like the other parts of the emotions like adrenalin, though he haven`t felt adrenalin in years, he says he is like an empty bottle of fine wine that needs to be refilled. he also like the complex sides of various music genres like uptempo jazz that can
entertain you on pure professionalism.

åge`s main inspiration comes from a lot of bands & artists. when he was 15 he listened to king diamond & metallica. at age 10 ultravox, abba, kiss & joan jett were his favourites. at 27 to the 30`s he enjoyed jean michel jarre, depeche mode, garbage, saint etienne, jan garbarek, anja garbarek, briskeby, yello, enya, bertine zetlitz, royksopp, vangelis, kitaro. he found tangerine dream & klaus schulze a little later.

a video news release can be found on vimeo, youtube, tubewatcher.tv & daily motion. this video is called harlequins enigma & the taboo ghost, & discusses harlequins enigma`s current situation with sales & their partnership with tangerine dream, sade & others, all under a veil of taboo & the hated law of jante.

harlequins enigma`s 20 releases in 2013 will be continued on in 2014 with albums: td sound 2, featuring tangerine dream, klaus schulze, peter baumann & christopher franke – other non tangerine dream involved artists to appear on the album will also be: anja garbarek, katie leung & vangelis. a second album called wanderer will also see the light of day in 2014. this mixed style album will see some unreleased material & features an unreleased vangelis track from 2008 & also a track featuring lenny kravitz. there is also an ep planned with releases from discord. åge says the best track on the album “summer path” has a glitch in the bass department & will need a remaster. this to make åge
sleep at night.

The free eBook, “New Rules: Running Your Business From the Cloud,” offers an objective step-by-step guide to evaluating, choosing and implementing the right cloud strategies for organizations looking to benefit from the latest cloud computing technologies.

“Whether you’re running a small or midsized business, have aspirations to start one, or are flat out frustrated by outdated and complicated software, by the end of this book you’ll be equipped with the know-how to manage your organization successfully from the cloud,” said author Richard Minney, a 20-year ERP consultant and co-founder of iBE.net. “With the downward pressures on IT budgets and the thirst for mobile and collaborative business apps, there’s a real need to run your business in the cloud—right now.”

Laid out In 13 chapters each ending with a list of top takeaways, “New Rules” follows the business life of a CEO and her chain of floral shops, revealing the trials and tribulations she faces as her team navigates the sometimes bumpy road involved with rolling out a cloud-based business system – all while keeping costs in check and her team in a collaborative mindset.

“New Rules” cover such business practices as defining requirements, creating an IT roadmap, selecting partners, signing contracts, building teams, designing for the long term, testing, the go-live process and making continuous improvements.

The eBook makes it clear how a proper investigation of cloud technologies must start with an air-tight definition of the business model, then determining what functionality is needed. This is followed by conducting research that will lead to the best options, evaluating and comparing those options, and finally implementing one or more cloud systems.

CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network to Present “Adopting the Cloud Safely and Securely” Webinar

November 6, 2013 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Comprehensive webinar will explore how to safely and securely adopt the cloud to maximize its benefits for business.

Tempe, AZ (USA), November 05, 2013 — Black Dog Promotions is proud to announce a dynamic new webinar that will be produced jointly with CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network. With the explosion of the “cloud” recently, it is increasingly being embraced by businesses worldwide. In taking it to the next level–security of data, files and information need to be of the utmost importance. Founder Taiye Lambo and Lead Cloud Security Analyst Jordan Flynn of CloudeAssurance and Co-Founder of Data Privacy Network, Phil Alexander will conduct this vitally important webinar on Wednesday, November 20th, 11:00 a.m. EST/8:00 a.m. PST.

“What we’re going to focus on are the real world benefits of the cloud,” said Alexander. “There are definite benefits. You have worldwide collaboration, rapid deployment and reduced cost. It’s much easier to go through an established cloud service provider than to try and create a cloud environment in your own network.” There are also risks that are involved with using a cloud environment. “We will ask the attendee to consider several things,” noted Alexander. Questions to consider will be: 1) What level of security is right for your company? 2) What’s the nature of your data? 3) How sensitive is that data? 4) Is data co-mingled? “If it’s just non-sensitive, fully-disclosed data, security is less of an issue.” The webinar will utilize three state-of-the-industry experts to help walk business owners and IT experts through the myriad of security exposure scenarios and give valuable strategies and solution ideas to help organizations protect their data. An attendee Q&A session will also take place towards the end of the webinar.

“We’ll be exchanging a lot of ideas. The main thing we’ll be talking about are the benefits of adopting the cloud for business and then the potential security issues of putting your information in the cloud,” stated Lambo. There are also some other important issues that businesses will be made aware of and how best to handle various security issues. “We’ll be sharing our high level research and explaining our Top 10 cloud service provider independent benchmark study information,” Lambo said. Flynn added, “This webinar focuses on how to enable the benefits of the cloud securely.” The webinar is free of charge and attendees can sign up here https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/9459/91376.

The collaboration between CloudeAssurance and Data Privacy Network will continue beyond their initial webinar, too. “We’re so like-minded. It’s one of those things that you can’t have privacy without security,” said Lambo. “And we share the same philosophy.” The ultimate goal is for the two companies together to increase awareness of online security while conducting webinars and speaking engagements designed to give businesses valuable knowledge and strategies to protect their business information.

Enservio Makes it Easier for Carriers to Pay Claims Quickly

November 4, 2013 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

New Web portal minimizes IT set-up. Enservio, Inc., the nation’s leading provider of software and services to property insurers, today announced QuickStart.

Needham, MA (USA), October 29th, 2013 — Enservio, Inc. (”Enservio”), the nation’s leading provider of software and services to property insurers, today announced QuickStart. QuickStart is a new capability of Enservio’s ReStore Payments™ solution that significantly reduces the time required to deploy a payments system, making it easier for carriers and adjusters to get funds into the hands of insureds and settle claims quickly.

As an enhancement to the ReStore Payments solution, QuickStart offers a turnkey, self-service web portal where carriers and adjusters can go to manage the set-up and provisioning of payments to claimants with minimal IT involvement.

Carriers can match the claim with the appropriate payment – whether it’s a pre-paid debit card, EFT or other solutions. The ReStore Card® is a MasterCard pre-paid debit card providing a powerful customer and claims settlement experience by delivering insureds access to funds up to 3X faster than a traditional check. Electronic claims settlements have proved to reduce processing costs of up to 60% per transaction. Insureds can use the card for everything from additional living expenses such as hotel and restaurant meals, to paying contractors for building claims.

“QuickStart is a hosted Web solution that mirrors key claim system functionality with very limited IT effort,” said Tom Crowder, General Manager, Payments. ”It streamlines the payment process from data entry to the final moment of settlement. Field or desk adjusters can use QuickStart to enter claims data directly into the portal and the system will automatically adjudicate the claim payment.”

Developed specifically for insurance industry needs, the portal includes various administration settings designed to adhere to carrier business accounting rules around reconciliation and reporting. Managers can also set adjuster limits by individual adjuster and payments can be held for centralized approvals, ensuring support for corporate policies. QuickStart also enables users to manage multi-payment issuance, enabling payments to dual parties (co-pays), and supplemental or recurring payments. In short, carriers are given the necessary tools to manage the full payment workflow while claimants see expedited funds.

“ReStore Card’s new capability offers the industry an alternative web-based solution that speeds up the payment process, delivers instant gratification to policyholders, and provides security and customer retention to carriers,” explained Crowder. “A hallmark of the program is the added benefit of proprietary consumer discounts, both online and in-store, at major retailers nationwide.”

Designed especially for the insurance industry, ReStore Payments offer a number of benefits to carriers and their insureds:

* Complete payment solution for all customers; cards, EFT and cash
* 3x faster delivery of funds to insureds
* Up to 60% reduction in processing costs over paper checks
* More secure – MasterCard zero liability, FDIC insurance, encrypted files, data privacy
* Exclusive discounts of up to 30% at major retailers (in store and online)
* Unsurpassed benefits – surcharge-free ATM network, purchase histories, extended warranties, free service provider/ contractor referrals
* Accepted everywhere – accepted at millions of retailers, banks and service providers
* Supports accounting best practices: imparts confidence that rules established for payment are enforced

ReStore Payments has processed more than $300 million in transactions, covering all types of auto, property, liability and other claim settlements. Carriers receive a rich aggregated dataset of information for underwriting, adjustment and marketing purposes via metrics captured during the transaction.

Hybrid Footwear for Men; The Hottest Trend

October 29, 2013 flashnewsrelease Leave a comment

Hybrid shoes are allowing men to dress up or down depending on the event they are attending and on a daily basis.

Los Angeles, CA (USA), October 29th, 2013 — Men’s fashion is rapidly evolving including street style as well as formal business attire. Men are becoming more and more interested in fashion that they are demanding the industry to appease their interests. One of the ways, the fashion industry is doing this is through hybrid styles. The most popular hybrid trend of the season, are the hybrid shoes. Designers and brands have been working to blend two or more different types of silhouettes in one to tackle a man who can’t be pinned to one look. Depending on the company, designers mix various fabrics as well as different styles to help men broaden their look. These are shoes meant for different styles of dress as well as different environments.

The different types of hybrid shoes include, boot hybrids, casual hybrids, and formal hybrids. All of these types could be worn by one man. That is the point; men have an ever changing style and need to express it.While many styles have already been combined, such as turning men’s sneakers into boots, the new trend is using trainer soles to create a stylish men’s comfort shoe. These come in multiple styles from men’s suede to men’s work shoes. Xcalibur Shoes is coming out with a Hybrid Air design in the S/S 2014 exactly like this. The Hybrid Air perfectly blends the sophistication of a traditional work shoe with an athletic air cushion sole.These shoes comes with the quality and design of the Xcalibur brand but are meant for men who have a more active lifestyle. Whether they walk long distances or are in need for more support, these shoes provide the ability to be sophisticated and practical all at once.

Hybrid shoes are also allowing men to dress up or down depending on the event they are attending and on a daily basis. But how would you wear these shoes? That is really up to you and your style, but if you are sporting a trendy hybrid shoe, don’t hide them under your pants. They are all the rage this season and rolling up the pants allows not only the shoe to be seen but a stylish sock as well.

As men’s fashion continues to grow, we will only see more modern editions of classic styles that men and women will both love to see. (Yes, women love seeing men in a trendy shoe.) Mixing shoe styles can be subtle or extremely evident, but it all comes back to a man’s desire to be versatile and unique in their day to day life.

What are your opinions on hybrid shoes? Do they belong in sophisticated fashion? Are they trying too hard to be different? What are the best hybrid combinations? Do you have any hybrid shoes? Is this trend going to last or will classic styles beat them out?
