Introducing Creative Outdoor Advertising

(PRBuzz.com) July 17, 2013 -- Public Safety Advertising (PSA) has developed a new market for a long-established advertising medium. For many decades, companies have advertised in and on city buses, subways and commuter trains. Now, this type of moving public advertising has a new and more attention-getting platform. Creative outdoor advertising is now being put on the sides of fire, police, EMS and other public safety vehicles.

PSA is owned and staffed by current and retired public safety and sales and marketing professionals. They know firsthand how budget constraints have affected public safety departments across the country.

New Revenue Streams for Governments

By utilizing these tasteful and discreet advertising messages, public safety departments can add funds to the "Other Sources" categories of their budgets. The advertising revenue can help replace worn or dated equipment, provide extra training funds and even forestall layoffs.

If city, state or federal governments are interested in exploring the possibility of participating in PSA's program, they can email them at Admin@PublicSafetyAdvertising.com. Then, an executive will arrange a phone interview or contact them by email to consider their needs and discuss possible projected revenues.

PSA executives are very familiar with the political processes and challenges that governments face. They can advise cities about approaches to realize their maximum revenue potential. The government employing this unique program can expect 80 percent of the revenue to go directly to their budget's bottom line.

Interested governments can go to PSA's website at http://www.publicsafetyadvertising.com/Public-Entity-Page.html or call 623-556-3038 for more information.

Unique Advertising Opportunities for Business

Advertisers gain not only the obvious attention-getting value of a lights-and-siren vehicle carrying their message. They also gain the respect of the community by providing financial support for their community's police, fire and EMS departments.

This new opportunity offers creative outdoor advertising at very affordable rates. The unique positioning of a company's products for supporting a community's most vital functions is priceless.

Advertisers can call 623-556-3038 or visit the PSA website at http://www.publicsafetyadvertising.com/Advertiser.html.

Public Safety Advertising is a company comprised of current and retired public safety professionals and experienced sales and marketing professionals. The company brings a unique brand of enabling financial support for public safety entities and providing unique advertising opportunities for business. The company is based in Phoenix, Arizona.

"We're all told that stress is a very costly problem in our society, contributing to an estimated 80% of illness," says Gruver, who also authored the newly-released, Conquer Your Stress with Mind/Body Techniques. "But we have to remember that stress isn't the real problem. It's our reaction to a stressful situation that causes ill-health, and we can control that. This's what I'm going to teach people to do on this educational health cruise."

Between port calls in St. Thomas, St. Maarten and Nassau, holistic conference participants will be offered 30+ mind-body health workshops and seminars presented by Dr. Gruver and 18 more holistic doctors, nurses, social workers, psychologists, yogis, etc. Integrative healthcare pioneer Norman Shealy, M.D., is the keynote speaker.

"This vacation at sea will be fun and educational, entertaining and inspiring. Making people laugh is one of my favorite things, so if people learn something and walk away with a smile on their face, I did my job!"

Ehlers and Associates Financial Advisors Chooses Tenrox for Cloud Professional Services Automation

AUSTIN, TEXAS, (PRBuzz.com) July 17, 2013 -- Tenrox, the leading cloud provider of workflow-driven Professional Services Automation (PSA) and Project Workforce Management solutions and part of Upland Software's family of project, portfolio, and work management applications, today announced that Ehlers & Associates, Inc. has chosen Tenrox PSA to boost the efficiency of its time entry and billing systems. The independent municipal financial advisory firm based in Roseville, MN is implementing Tenrox's Project Management, Time & Expense, Project Financials, and Analytics modules to better track and manage profitability.

With over 70 employees, Ehlers & Associates provides custom-designed solutions for debt planning and issuance, economic development and redevelopment, financial planning, and strategic communications to cities, counties, school districts and other governmental units throughout the Midwest.

"We expect Tenrox to help make us a more efficient and more profitable company with its dashboards, real-time reporting and workflows that can be customized to our business model," said Carol Sweeney, CFO.

Ehlers had been using an internally developed system for time entry and billing. However, the solution lacked the scalability, flexibility and reporting capabilities required by the company's current projects and client expectations. According to Sweeney, that resulted in a great deal of manual processing and an inability to access the information needed for comprehensive efficiency and profitability reporting.

The company chose the Tenrox Cloud solution for several additional reasons, including:
• Built in connectors for integration with QuickBooks and Paychex
• Easy cloud-based accessibility for all employees, including an intuitive mobile app
• Simple tracking/reporting of reimbursable expenses

"We were very impressed by how many features Tenrox provides right out of the box, all of which will keep our projects on track and keep us informed on a timelier basis," Sweeney said.

With its ease of use and integration and innovative capabilities, the Tenrox Cloud PSA solution is giving Ehlers & Associates a completely new and intuitive way to handle its back-office business.

About Ehlers
Ehlers, an independent public finance advisor for over 50 years, is ranked second nationally in number of competitive sales advised. (Source: Bloomberg, 212-318-2000. August 14, 2012.)

Prolexic Releases Q2 Global Attack Report

$

0

(PRBuzz.com) July 17, 2013 -- Prolexic Technologies, the global leader in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection services, today announced that the average packet-per-second (pps) rate reached 47.4 Mpps and the average bandwidth reached 49.24 Gbps based on data collected in Q2 2013 from DDoS attacks launched against its global client base. These metrics, representing increases of 1,655 percent and 925 percent respectively compared to Q2 2012, are just two of many findings contained in the company's Quarterly Global DDoS Attack Report, which was published today.

"This quarter we logged increases for all major DDoS attack metrics, and some have been significant. DDoS attacks are getting bigger, stronger and longer," said Stuart Scholly, president at Prolexic. "We believe this growth is being fueled by the increasing prevalence of compromised Joomla and WordPress web servers in increasingly large botnets."

In Q1 2013, Prolexic recorded an average DDoS attack bandwidth of 48.25 Gbps, an all-time high since the company began issuing quarterly attack reports in Q3 2011. This second quarter, average bandwidth ticked even higher to 49.24 Gbps, representing a 2 percent increase over Q1 2013 and a 925 percent increase over Q2 2012. In addition, average packet-per-second volume reached 47.4 Mpps this quarter, a dramatic 46 percent increase over the 32.4 Mpps that was logged just last quarter. Compared to Q2 2012, the average packet-per-second rate has increased 1,655 percent.

After trending down in 2011 and part of 2012, average attack durations are increasing, rising from 17 hours in Q1 2012 and 34.5 hours in Q1 2013, to 38 hours this quarter.

"Attack durations are likely increasing because perpetrators are less concerned about detection and protecting their botnets," said Scholly. "The widespread availability of compromised web servers makes it much easier for malicious actors to replenish, grow and redeploy botnets. Traditionally, botnets have been built from compromised clients. This requires malware distribution via PCs and virus infections, and takes considerable time and effort. Consequently, attackers wanted to protect their client-based botnets and were more fearful of detection, so we saw shorter attack durations."

Summary highlights from Prolexic's Q2 2013 Global DDoS Attack Report

Compared to Q2 2012
• 33 percent increase in total number of DDoS attacks
• 23 percent increase in total number of infrastructure (Layer 3 & 4) attacks
• 79 percent increase in total number of application (Layer 7) attacks
• 123 percent increase in attack duration: 38 hours vs. 17 hours
• 925 percent increase in average bandwidth
• 1,655 percent increase in average packet-per-second (pps) rate

Compared to Q1 2013
• 20 percent increase in total number of DDoS attacks
• 17 percent increase in total number of infrastructure (Layer 3 & 4) attacks
• 28 percent increase in total number of application (Layer 7) attacks
• 10 percent increase in attack duration: 38 hours vs. 34.50 hours
• 2 percent increase in average bandwidth: 49.24 Gbps vs. 48.25 Gbps
• 46 percent increase in average packet-per-second (pps) rate
• China maintains its position as the main source country for DDoS attacks.

Analysis and emerging trends

As in previous quarters, attackers predominantly used infrastructure-directed attacks (Layer 3 and Layer 4), which accounted for 74.7 percent of all attacks, with application layer attacks making up the remainder. SYN floods were the attack type of choice, accounting for nearly one-third of all attacks mitigated by Prolexic's Security Operations Center (SOC). This is the highest volume for any single attack type since Prolexic began publishing its Quarterly Global DDoS Attack Report. GET, ICMP and UDP floods were also frequently directed against Prolexic clients over the three-month period.

Compared to the same quarter one year ago, the total number of DDoS attacks increased 33.8 percent. In addition, the total number of infrastructure attacks increased 23.2 percent while the total number of application attacks (Layer 7) increased by 79.4 percent compared to one year ago. While the split between the total number of infrastructure attacks and application layer attacks was similar between the two quarters, both attack types increased when the two quarters were compared. Average attack durations have increased significantly, rising from 17 hours in Q2 2012 to reach 38 hours this quarter, an increase of 124 percent.

Compared to Q1 2013, the total number of attacks increased by 20 percent. This reflects a consistently high level of denial of service attack activity around the globe over the last six months. The total numbers of both infrastructure and application attacks increased over Q1 2013 (17.4 percent and 28.9 percent respectively). Average attack duration continued to tick upwards, rising from 34.5 hours last quarter to 38 hours in Q2 2013.

April was the most active month of the quarter for DDoS attacks, accounting for 39.7 percent of all attacks, followed by May (31.6 percent) and June (28.7 percent). This quarter, two weeks tied for the most active week of the quarter: April 8-14 and April 15-21. This high level of activity can be attributed to attacks against financial services clients and the ongoing use of the itsoknoproblembro toolkit.

Data for the Q2 2013 report has been gathered and analyzed by the Prolexic Security Engineering & Response Team (PLXsert). The group monitors malicious cyber threats globally and analyzes DDoS attacks using proprietary techniques and equipment. Through digital forensics and post attack analysis, PLXsert is able to build a global view of DDoS attacks, which is shared with Prolexic customers. By identifying the sources and associated attributes of individual attacks, the PLXsert team helps organizations adopt best practices and make more informed, proactive decisions about DDoS threats.

A complimentary copy of the Prolexic Q2 2013 Global DDoS Attack Report is available as a free PDF download from www.prolexic.com/attackreports. The Q3 2013 report will be released early in the fourth quarter of 2013.

Domain Name Creditcardoffe.rs Now On The Market For Immediate Sale

(PRBuzz.com) July 18, 2013 -- Taking the time to find the best domain name will provide long-term branding opportunities.

Why Buy Creditcardoffe.rs Domain Name ?

Creditcardoffe.rs domain name is Short, Descriptive and Memorable.

Short with only 16 letters total, versus the comparable dot com with 19 letters. This domain name comes into its own when used in conjunction with SMS and Instant Messaging services, and especially Twitter with its 140-character limit on tweets.

Descriptive, Creditcardoffe.rs tells visitors exactly what to expect when they visit the website.

Memorable, Creditcardoffe.rs is easy for someone to remember, sounds familar to visitors (even if they haven't visited the website before), and it can convey trust to prospective clients.

Why Use Domain Name Extensions to Express Company's Name or Product ?

The perfect fusion of creativity and innovation, a domain name hack is an excellent startup domain used and trusted by Apple (Itun.es, Researche.rs), Google (Goo.gl, Ro.me), Microsoft (So.cl, Bi.ng), HP (Gr.am), Instagram (Instagr.am), Bitly (Bit.ly), SocialFlow (Trib.al), Mcafee (Mcaf.ee), Zynga (Zyn.ga), Netflix (Movi.es), TIME Magazine (Ti.me), Huffington Post (Huffpo.st), NY Times (Nyt.ms) Blo.gs (acquired by Yahoo!), Delicio.us (acquired by Yahoo!), Frid.ge (acquired by Google), Mi.lk (acquired by Google), Love.ly (acquired by Facebook), Answe.rs (acquired by Answers.com), Grou.ps, Cir.ca, etc.

Domain name hacks are the best alternatives to dot-com domains and more startups and companies adopting them, making these domain names ever more valuable.

They are easier to type. Given how popular mobile web navigation is now, keeping the domain names short is crucial. Apps may handle a lot of navigations, but if mobile users see a URL somewhere, they would have to type it in. Typing on mobile devices is not as easy as on desktops and laptops. Domain name hacks make it as convenient as possible for someone to type a URL. A shorter domain name also gives more versatility in mobile site design as it easily fits on a smaller screen.

"10 years from now we will look back at a world where every domain name ended in a .com like our kids look at record players" --Blake Irving

The Airport Parking Shop is Now Handling Bookings at Manchester Airport

$

(PRBuzz.com) July 18, 2013 -- One of the most popular websites for booking car parking spaces at UK airports has recently expanded its list of services to include the ability to take and manage bookings at the Manchester airport parking facilities. As the website has established itself and gained more traction in the online airport parking bookings sector, the site has grown to offer a wider range of services.
Although the site went public with a soft launch, initially only offering bookings at a few UK airports such as the services at the Bristol airport car parking facilities and those at Heathrow, as the number of bookings handled increased, so too did the ambitions of the website owners.
When speaking to the chairman of the Airport Parking Shop, he made it clear that although the site started off small, once it had proven it could offer a valued service to customers, the goals and aims of the company were expanded to include a service that covered all aspects of airport parking in the UK. It has been out of these expansion plans that the decision to offer a service that covers the provisions at the Manchester airport parking terminal 1 facilities were born.
Whilst the marketplace for third party booking websites has grown increasingly competitive in recent years, with companies competing not only amongst themselves, but with the airports themselves, so too has the number of passengers choosing to book online grown. At websites like the Airport Parking Shop, it is now possible to place a reservation for a spot at any number of locations around the country including the Bristol Airport parking services as well as many more.
At first glance it might seem that these websites are unnecessary but after closer inspection, it does appear that they offer a valuable service, especially when talking to the users of the sites. As there are so many different options available at each airport, it can be hard to find out exactly how each type of parking works and which one is best suited to the needs of a traveller.
These websites have sprung up to fill that gap in the market and by offering detailed information about the different parking options together on one site, with independent reviews and guides, passengers seem to feel more comfortable making a reservation with a third party website, where they can compare the different options in one place. This has meant that sites like the http://www.airportparkingshop.com/ have managed to carve out a niche for themselves in this in-demand area. Not only can customers make a booking online or through the telephone reservation system, but they can also find out detailed information on the parking options available as well as how to get to each of them and how much time to allow in order to make their scheduled flight time.
With more and more people choosing to shop and book online, it seems there is a bright future ahead for the Airport Parking Shop and its competitors.

COATES INTERNATIONAL, LTD HOME GENERATORS MAY ONLY NEED WATER AS FUEL TO OPERATE AND PREPARES ONLINE VIDEO DEMONSTRATING OPERATION OF A COATES CSRV 14 HORSEPOWER ENGINE RUNNING ON HYDROGEN GENERATED FROM THE COATES HYDGROGEN SPLITTING REACTOR

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. (PRBuzz.com) July 18, 2013 -- Coates International, Ltd. (NASDAQ OTCBB: COTE) -Coates International, Ltd. (the "Company") has developed its first hydrogen reactor which is capable of splitting the molecules in ordinary tap water to generate Hydroxy gas. The Hydroxy Gas is harvested from the tap water on demand by the hydrogen splitting reactor. It is then used to power the Coates CSRV engines. A video of the successful first application to power a Coates 14 Horsepower CSRV engine can now be viewed on the Company's website at www.coatesengine.com.

CSRV engines operating on Hydroxy Gas do not produce any emissions whatsoever, and the energy is sourced from an ordinary water supply, making this an inexpensive and "green" source of power. Conventional engines designed with poppet valves assemblies would likely experience catastrophic failure in a very short time running on Hydroxy Gas because they are designed to run on gasoline or diesel fuel and there is no lubricity in hydrogen.

At this time, the Company is continuing with the development of this technology and is working on applying this technology to more powerful, higher capacity CSRV engines.

At this time, there can be no assurance that this project can be successfully introduced into the marketplace on a large scale basis.

Greendale Physical Therapy Provides 4 Tips for Preventing Injury

$

0

(PRBuzz.com) July 18, 2013 -- We have spent many months holed up inside, and yes, Worcester was the runner-up for the Golden Snow Globe award which "honors" the city (with a population of over 100,000) in the US who has received the most snow. That was then, this is now -- the weather is prime for getting out on the weekend to play outdoors, do one of those mud events, participate in barbecue sporting events, start a new running program and .... hurting ourselves...or is it? Here are a few great tips on how to help prevent injury this weekend.

Tip #1 - Know that you just aren't as good as you used to be
Your mind may feel like you can still do what you did in high school. Sorry to say but if you are like most weekend warriors you are heavier, weaker, and probably a little less dexterous than your brain thinks you are. Know your limitations and start an activity in a scaled back manner especially with a new athletic endeavor, starting off slow will allow your body to get stronger and more accustomed to the activity which will be a good buffer for potential injuries.

Tip #2 - Don't skimp on the proper gear
Yes, you may have buzzed around on your bike when you are kid without a helmet, but now you have more responsibility and wisdom (even more so after reading this article) to know that proper gear is important. Proper gear for activities includes a helmet, proper shoes, proper balls, water bottles, and sunscreen among others.

Tip#3 - Warm up
Years of not working out + a long winter inside + a 60+ hour workweeks in front of a computer + just getting off a lawn chair after drinking a beer + a volleyball court (also be sure to factor in the extra 10-30 pounds) = a recipe for an injury and a sure fire way to be reintroduced to your physical therapist on Monday. Start off easy with any athletic activity and get the muscles and tissues warm, a good indicator of this is a light sweat, this will help lessen your risk of injury.

Tip #4 Take time to recover
Your body no longer to heals and recovers as it once did. Yes, it is true that most people used to bounce back from injuries quickly...when they were in high school. Listen to your body, the running plan you put together at the beginning of the summer is great in theory, but if you are experiencing pain or soreness that is prolonged, listen to your body and take a day or two off, it is not going to kill your training program, in fact, it may help.

Check out the sign at our Shrewsbury location, it will say "ATTN WEEKEND WARRIORS,
WE OPEN 7:00 MONDAY AM FOR YOU", hopefully you won't need us, but when you do we'll be here... 7:00 Monday morning.

Popular board game Zombies! released in iTunes

BABAROGA REVITALIZES "TABLETOP CLASSIC" ZOMBIES!!! ON iOS

CHICAGO (PRBuzz.com) July 18, 2013 -- You can never keep a good game down, particularly when it wants to eat your brain. Babaroga, LLC. today announces the rebirth of the classic table-top board game, Zombies!!! for iOS. It's the same zombie killing action that made Twilight Creations' original title a hit with gamers everywhere, but now with awesome animations, beautiful 3D environments and over-the-top action. And at $4.99 USD, it's available for a fraction of the board game. This one is truly a 'no-brainer'.

"Zombies!!! started as a board game by Twilight Creations back in 2001 - an awesome board game, which we frequently found ourselves staying up until the wee-hours of the night to play," says Andreja Djokovic, CEO of Babaroga. "Eventually, someone said 'if this were a video game, we could play anytime we want without ever accidentally bumping the game table and ruining everything.' I think it was said soon after someone bumped the table. Fortunately, our zombie-hunting iOS friends don't need to take up the entirety of their coffee table to play the hit board game anymore!"

Zombies!!! thrusts players into the middle of the action, as they try to escape the ever-advancing undead horde. Be the first to reach the helipad for rescue, or brave the undead and collect 25 kills to claim victory. Either way, players will have to strategically maneuver their way around the randomly generated map, securing the scarce resources integral to survival. The game also features 27 unique event cards (with original artwork by Dave Aikins!) that allow players to reap temporary benefits, or hinder the progress of others - because after all, Zombies!!! is not a nice game. Play with up to four friends via pass-and-play, or try your luck against the relentless CPU's. But the options don't stop there. Babaroga intends to add a slew of content through future updates including a cross-platform online multiplayer component, funded through Kickstarter.

Babaroga burst onto the scene in 2002, and quickly established itself as a highly relevant game developer. With a large array of published titles across various platforms, Babaroga is devoted to delivering games that go above and beyond expectations. Babaroga has created games that let fans enter into worlds unlike any other. From game of the year Spore: Origins to EA MMA and Rogue Racing, Babaroga has a diverse portfolio that continues to expand.
