Safer Flame Retardant for Plastics Created

Safer Flame Retardant for Plastics Created

Testing Results for FlamaSol FR

Calumet City, Ill. (PRWEB) January 04, 2012

PCC (Plastics Color Corporation), a leading supplier of color concentrates, compounds and additive masterbatches for the plastics industry, today announced the availability of a decabrome-free flame retardant system for polypropylene. The product line, FlamaSol FR™, was developed at PCC’s Solutions Center in Asheboro, N.C.

According to PCC Development Engineer David Witt, “FlamaSol FR contains no decabrome or antimony, two harmful chemicals, yet demonstrates better extinguishing results than our previous flame retardant.” According to Witt, “both of these chemicals are being phased out of flame retardants by the end of 2012, so we developed FlamaSol as a new option for our customers.”

The Solutions Center developed FlamaSol FR™ in response to a rising need in the marketplace for safer flame resistant plastics. A team of scientists at PCC tested a wide variety of materials under simulated temperature and combustion conditions to discover the best proprietary formulation of fire retardant compounds.

FlamaSol FR is ideal for use in construction materials (electrical conduit, junction boxes, switch boxes), warehouse products (shelving and pallets), personal electronic equipment (computers, printers and televisions) and other applications where extreme heat may cause ignition. FlamaSol FR surpasses testing standards of UL 94 and ANSI 4996 for plastic pallets and performs better than PCC’s previous flame retardant systems (see attached graph). FlamaSol FR PP is appropriate for use in injection molding, extrusion and blow molding applications.

PCC Vice President of Business Development Tim Workman said that “the development of FlamaSol FR is just one more example of how PCC continues to work with our customers to solve problems and create leading products and services.”

FlamaSol is available in white, black and natural masterbatches and PCC can custom-formulate it for any color. PCC is currently working on a FlamaSol product for PE.

With the New iPhones and iPads Barely Out of their Gift-wrap, New Users Are Downloading New Apps in Record Numbers. “Gift of Laughter” is among 7 Popular Recommendations

Monday, January 2nd, 2012

With the New iPhones and iPads Barely Out of their Gift-wrap, New Users Are Downloading New Apps in Record Numbers. “Gift of Laughter” is among 7 Popular Recommendations

The Gift of Laughter on iPad

Rochester, New York (PRWEB) December 31, 2011

With the gift-wrap already recycled or on the trash heap, many new iPhone and iPad owners are searching the Apple iTunes Store for exciting and useful apps to enhance their new tech marvels. But with so many apps to choose from and with searching for apps notoriously a very hit or miss proposition on the Apple iTunes App Store, it’s good to have some help in making choices. Fred Burger, the developer of “The Gift of Laughter” app has selected 6 other popular humor oriented iPhone/iPad apps that can turn an iPhone or iPad into a great resource for fun. What better way for a user to get started than with a new and powerful gift?

1. The Onion

Price: Free Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

The Onion, one of the best satirical news sources, is essentially an iPad magazine, although it’s available on the iPhone and iPod touch as well (the iPad version is called The Onion Tablet, while the iPhone/iPod touch app is simply named The Onion). The grid-style layout on the front page will be familiar to users of apps such as The New York Times. Navigation is reasonably quick, if a little jerky at times.

Once The Onion app has downloaded the week’s content from the site – of which there’s a decent amount – one can read it whether online or not, which makes it useful for comedy fans without a mobile data connection. But certain features, such as video, take a while to download.

At its heart it’s still The Onion, which means it’s satirical genius at its best, and the app rolls in almost the same amount of content as the physical newspaper. The text stories in it are cuttingly sharp, and the info-graphics are high-resolution and hilarious.

One of the greatest features though, is the parody video reports, aping the 24-hour news networks with a constant churn of ridiculous stories. Production values in these videos are surprisingly good, and a reader will chuckle to himself and want to share them with friends and co-workers.

2. 18,000 Cool Jokes

Price: 99¢ Works with: iPhone, iPod touch, iPad

An enormous collection of all kinds of jokes. They are organized by a very user-friendly and helpful interface design. The nicest thing about this app is that it provides everything right at your fingertips. No internet connection is required. The built in algorithm helps to select the jokes you will like best based on your ratings of the jokes your read.

One word of warning though, this app contains age restricted material – dirty jokes – so makes sure it is something you want on your iPhone or iPad. But, well worth a look.

3. The Gift of Laughter

Price: 99¢ Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

VisionsMedia has created a unique and easy delivery device for inducing laughter in short order. “The Gift of Laughter” – is available for just 99¢ and it’s the best buck you’ll ever spend towards your well-being. Leaving the stress and anger of the world behind can be very beneficial to your health. “The Gift of Laughter” app provides 50 different laughing people who are clearly having a great time. It’s the quickest way to deliver a laugh directly to the brain.

Research shows that watching a funny movie or television show aids vascular function, while a stressful or scary movie narrows blood vessels according to the research presented. The findings of the research confirm previous studies suggesting a link between mental stress and the narrowing of blood vessels according to Michael Miller, lead researcher at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore.

“The take-home message here is laughing is great for your heart.” Miller said. “It suggests that if you are having a really bad day, and you are having a lot of stress, you can reverse that in a matter of minutes,” he said. “It’s not only reversing your mood, it’s reversing your vascular function. That’s great news for the heart.” And not bad for the funny bone either.

4. Mega Collection of Classical Comedy Shows

Price: $ 1.99 Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

For the true comedy lover these golden nuggets of the 50’s and the classic era are sure to please. When you start browsing through the app you will realize its true power to bring us back to a special time for comedy. The makers of this app sorted the shows into separate sections, so that finding favorite shows will is quite easy. There are more than 40 Classical comedy series in this app and the makers plan on adding more in the future.

Some of the classic comedy episodes include greats like Groucho Marx, Abbot and Costello, The Three Stooges and they even reach back to Buster Keaton and The Little Rascals. This is a collection that will offer the viewer many great moments of the giants of classic comedy.

5. The Colbert Report’s The Word

Price: $ 1.99 Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

This hilarious compilation of Stephen Colbert delivering “The Word” segments from his Comedy Central show is a great selection of timeless comedy creations that is guaranteed to provide a good laugh or two.

When you download this app, you get every Word by date or you can search alphabetically. The developers of this app have also included a very useful “random Word” function that can just surprise you every time.

6. Jokes.com by Comedy Central

Price: $ 1.99 Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

This app offers a broad selection of jokes from everyday old classics to jokes about technology. The app makes it easy to find all kind of categories of jokes. It also offers a random selection wheel that when taken for a spin spits out all kinds of jokes that can delight and challenge ones sense of humor.

Options include jokes about “Yo Mama” and the always strong standby “Walks into a Bar” jokes. The app allows the user to access the entire Comedy Central archive and the “Joke of the Day” option ensures that one can have a ready joke when the moment is right.

7. Funny or Die by Funny or Die

Price: Free Works with: iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

This app taps into the hilarious humor developed by Will Ferrell and friends that started with the Funny or Die web site. It offers free videos of the Funny or Die sketches as well as a search engine that allows the user to delve into the large Funny or Die archives.

JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Presents Mega Event for Jamaica 50th Anniversary

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011

JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Presents Mega Event for Jamaica 50th Anniversary

(PRWEB) December 22, 2011

Montego Bay;Jamaica: When the JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music sets the nights to music at the Trelawny Stadium on January 26 – 28, 2012, there will be two important anniversaries being celebrated. The 2012 edition will be the Festival’s sweet sixteen, and even more importantly it will also be the first major event to commemorate Jamaica’s 50th year of Independence. The result is that organizers are preparing a show that will leave audiences wowed.

At the Festival launch, which took place at the Ballroom of the Wyndham Kingston Hotel, Walter Elmore announced to the star-studded audience that JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music 2012 will be an amazing historical event. “It will be a great event,” he said. “We will be celebrating our history, our music, our culture. This will be the most memorable event we’ve ever staged as a company, maybe even as a country.”

The announcement of the 2012 line-up, which will include multiple award winning Celine Dion, as well as Grammy award winner Cee Lo Green have already sent ripples of excitement about the event. Elmore pointed out that the JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music remains committed to being one of the best festivals in the world by bringing the best artistes to the island. He noted that in 2012, the JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival would be the only event graced by Ms. Dion outside of Las Vegas.

Minister of Tourism, Hon. Edmund Bartlett, noted that in 2011 he had charged the Festival’s production team with delivering the calibre of festival in 2012 that would generate a significant rise in tourist arrivals to the country. He congratulated them for having risen to the challenge and successfully pulling it off. “What I wanted was a festival that delivered heads to beds, feet to the streets and that converts lookers into bookers,” said Minister Bartlett.

The JAMIACA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music will once again be a Flow powered event. The telecommunications company will be providing broadband internet access and Wi-Fi which will allow patrons to have real-time interactions with their favourite social networking sites and more. Michele English, President and Chief Operating Officer of Flow, pointed out that one of the company’s major goals is to showcase Jamaica in the best possible light. “We want to show the world that not only does Jamaica have the best talent, it has the best technology as well,” Ms. English said.

Ms. English explained that Flow is very aware of the importance of JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music 2012. She explained that in recognition of this Flow has once again engaged HBO in developing a special documentary feature surrounding the Festival. The intention is that the documentary, though focused on the JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival will also pay keen attention to the country’s culture and history in celebration of the 50th anniversary. Flow TV will also produce its own documentary special on the Festival.

The JAMAICA Jazz and Blues Festival – The Art of Music 2012 will also commemorate Jamaica 50 through its Thursday night event which will be dedicated to showcasing 50 years of Jamaican music. Thursday night will present a musical tapestry featuring some of Jamaican music’s greatest from then and now. The impressive roster includes the irrepressible Shaggy, Dancehall’s first king Yellowman, reggae empress Marcia Griffiths, poet and philosopher Luciano and the timeless Freddie McGregor. The line-up will also feature John Holt, Half Pint, Etana, Michael Rose, George Nooks, Boney M, AJ Brown, Lloyd Parks and the We the People Band and the Dragonaires.

Corporate support for the Festival has been favourable with the Jamaica Tourist Board, Iberostar and Flow returning along with RIU, Half Moon Resorts, Hilton Rose Hall, CVM TV (the official television partner), The Gleaner (the official print partner), Scotiabank, Pure Country and Loyal Haylett Management Services

The night ended with a taste of the music that patrons can expect at the highly anticipated Jamaica Jazz and Blues 2012. Guests were treated to stirring performances from Richie Stephens and Dubtonic Kru. The stellar line-up for the 2012 Festival also features Richie Stephens, The Temptations Review featuring Dennis Edwards, Heads of State, Earl Klugh, Jully Black, Nicole Henry, Destra Garcia, and Gentleman.

Pawn Shop to the Stars, Beverly Loan Company, Reports Holiday Spike In Big Dollar Collateral Loans for Contemporary Art and Pop Icon Collectibles

Beverly Loan Company

Beverly Hills, Ca (PRWEB) December 19, 2011

Beverly Loan Company specializes in collateral or pawn loans for high-end jewelry, sports memorabilia and other luxury items. However, this year, contemporary art and pop icon memorabilia are turning up at the Pawnshop to the Stars more than ever before. Jordan Tabach-Bank, Beverly Loan Company’s CEO, reported “Our exclusive clientele is interested in confidential and secure loans for big ticket items, and it is clear that contemporary art and collectibles are the favored pieces to secure them quickly.”

Beverly Loan Company also boasts an impressive collection of items for sale. The 73 year old pawn shop has a large selection of estate jewelry and high-end watches, as well as unique once-in-a-lifetime items available for purchase to the public at large at “dealer” prices. Beverly Loan Company’s items recently appeared on NBC’s hit TV show “It’s Worth What?” The show featured a stunning Alan Friedman yellow diamond pendant and chain ($ 175,000) and a De Beers diamond hourglass ($ 15,500).

Known as the “Pawn Shop to the Stars”, since 1938 Beverly Loan Company has offered confidential pawn loans against signed jewelry and watches, including such brands as Cartier, Graff, Tiffany and Co., Patek Philippe, Panerai, Audemars Piguet, and Rolex. Unlike your average pawn shop, Beverly Loan also specializes in modern and contemporary art, including works by Warhol, Picasso, Hockney, Lichtenstein, and Chagall. Owing to its exclusive 90210 location, Beverly Loan Company even has expertise in rare Hollywood collectibles such as Emmys and Golden Globes and sports memorabilia. The collection includes championship rings and belts, along with pop icon articles worn by figures such as Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, Elvis Presley, and Michael Jackson.

Tabach-Bank noted, “We take our customers needs for security and privacy very seriously.” Beverly Loan Company is located on the 3rd floor of the Bank of America Building on the corner of Santa Monica Blvd. and Beverly Dr. in the heart of Beverly Hills. Tabach-Bank added, ”For our customers protection, Beverly Loan Company has an armed guard on duty at all times. All jewelry is stored in our private safe located inside Bank of America’s vault.” Beverly Loan Company has been featured in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, E! Entertainment Television, the Wall Street Journal, and Newsweek.

www.unplugthesignal.com Nathan Janes, artist activist of PUPAGANDA, has announced the unveiling of a campaign to turn off televisions across the country. The artist is calling for an awakening of the people to the gross manipulation of reality that is broadcast by the six major corporations controlling the content of television. In an article accompanying his latest artwork on the subject, Janes addresses the use of television as a weapon of mass deception for the last half of a century. He recognizes the role of the television in managing society and culture through such techniques as perception management, predictive programming and crisis creation. Janes has declared Unplugging the Signal to be of urgent concern for the television remains our greatest threat to individual sovereignty and the largest obstacle to becoming a truly informed individual. Patriots are urged to spread the message of the Unplug the Signal campaign by visiting pupaganda.com where an info-card and images for use on posters, stickers, and other printed material can be found.
