Cloud-based applications can be accessed by users through web browsers and mobile applications while the business software and data are stored on servers at a remote location. Cyber Host Pro, who were recently awarded the Best Independent Technological Business 2013, specialise in Cloud Hosting. The company launched their new top spec virtual server on Friday 4th October, offering their clients the very latest technology at affordable prices. Their servers are hosted from Trafford Park, Manchester in a collocation data centre.
Considering a secure certified hosting environment is essential for any business. If you are looking for risk management, asset protection and accelerated confidence in cloud deployments then look no further. Cloud deployments are designed to be dynamic, Cyber Host Pro can offer this service to all their clients worldwide.
The service would benefit anyone looking for a cost effective server as this has many benefits. The server starts on a very low specification which then allows the company's auto scale to automatically upgrade or downgrade resources to the exact ones demanded by the server.
The new cloud server is scalable, making it very similar to VPS with added benefits such as: Data replication for high availability (meaning the virtual hard disk is on more than 1 of their SANs), Auto Heal (if a Hypervisor was to go down, another would detect this and boot the virtual server back up), CDN (this copies a clients website images to over 100 of the company's partners worldwide, making the website fast in every country).
Director of Cyber Host Pro, Chris Danks, says “it is great to be able to offer one of the best servers available on the market. Our client base of over 50,000 websites already see the benefit of the investments we make in the latest technology, and we know that new technology like this is why so many companies are choosing to host with us”.
Chris went on to say “Not only is our technology a really attractive proposition for new customers looking for a safe and secure place to host, but also our prices are so affordable and competitive that we are better priced than 90% of hosting companies out there. With the range of hosting options we have, what more can a company want?”
With Cyber Host Pro also being recognised for their fast growing business with the award for Best Independent Technology Business 2013, they are a company highly sought after and expect significant growth this year and into 2014.

“The Nourishmat was a huge success from an online Kickstarter campaign and is in incredibly high demand from consumers and distributors throughout North America but we now hold the entire inventory and are working around the clock to get this to the consumer”, says Lewis Robert, President of Robert Marketing. Robert continues, saying that starting on Cyber Monday and continuing through Christmas, they are projected to sell the majority of their stock and advises customers to place orders early and beat the rush. Cyber Monday is the Monday following Black Friday and traditionally the biggest shopping day of the year.
The NourishmatTM is an innovative gardening product geared towards empowering people to grow their own food. The patented design and construction of NourishmatTM takes the guess work out of gardening, and features built-in irrigation (select models), custom-made non-GMO seed balls, and crop-specific spacing guides printed on a weatherproof weed barrier.
The NourishmatTM, which is inspired by square-foot gardening, makes it easy to grow a lot of food in a 4-foot by 6-foot space by turning a plastic mat into a garden planting guide. The gardening mat serves as a tool to help busy humans supplement their diets with healthy, homegrown produce and to promote food growing in their communities.
The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization has lately been talking about micro-gardens as critical way to help the urban poor get more food on the table. The FAO defines micro-gardens as intensively cultivated small spaces — such as balconies, small yards, patios and rooftops. The NourishmatTM has been beta-tested in 22 states and estimates show that users can grow $200 worth of produce in one season and 25 to 30 pounds of food in a year. The mats can be replanted for three to five years.
The NourishmatTM, and its companion product, The HerbmatTM, was first announced earlier this year through it’s highly successful Kickster.com campaign, a popular grassroots online fundraising site. Now that the campaign is over, and the product created, Robert Marketing has exclusively taken on the task of connecting the highly demanded product to the consumer, making it available exclusively through online sales. “Will it change the world or at least the way people eat?”, asks Robert. “Maybe... regardless, it’s a great Christmas gift that will continue to give once it becomes a garden.”

Today, the IAQ Video Network and Cochrane & Associates announced the release of another online video to help educate people about issues that may impact their health. Their latest educational video discusses indoor mold and the Environmental Relative Moldiness Index.
High levels of indoor mold are known to cause a variety health issues. When people have a home tested for mold, there are a number of different types of tests and sampling methods that can be employed. One of these is the Environmental Relative Moldiness Index, more commonly referred to as ERMI.
Researchers from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed the ERMI test method. It is a DNA-based analysis known as Mold Specific Quantitative PCR (MSQPCR) that detects and quantifies various species of mold. The test provides a standardized and rapid method that identifies the mold burden of a dust sample collected from a home. Carpet dust in a home often acts as a reservoir for mold that has settled over time.
The test looks for a combination of 36 molds from two groups. One group is considered to be species associated with water-damaged environments and the other considered to be found in homes independent of water damage. The results of the test are then compared to a national database that describes the mold burden of the home with a single numeric number.
“This technology has been licensed by firms that provide this test commercially,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video. “As with all test methods, they each have their pros and cons. There are many factors involved with a typical mold investigation in a home, but the ERMI test can be a useful tool for evaluating the potential risk of indoor mold growth. We hope this new video helps to shed some light on the ERMI test and how it can help determine if there is a mold problem in a home.”
This educational video was sponsored by a number of organizations and leading industry professionals that help to protect the public’s health. Sponsors include: EMSL Analytical, LA Testing, Mold Solutions, Clark Seif Clark, MBM Insurance Resource Center, Zimmetry Environmental and Healthy Indoors magazine to name a few.

With growing technology and the internet booming, the trend of mass marketing has gradually shifted to attract customers with personalized services. In order to achieve that, businesses need to collate, maintain and manage the BIG volumes of DATA to provide efficient and effective service and engage them further to boost up revenues. With each company wanting to cater real time promotion, it is challenging to get such large volume of data in a structured way.

Sincere. Genuine. Witty. Heartfelt. This is the current buzz surrounding modern folk artist Dan Coyle, who brings his Modern Folk Explosion show to Shelburne Vineyards on February 6th. The show begins at 7pm and is being offered free to the public.
"I just love meeting people and making friends around the world. I never actually meant to become a touring songwriter, that wasn't really a goal of mine, it just happened. I absolutely love it, I can't imagine what else I'd possibly be doing if I couldn't do this," said Coyle.
Artists and musicians are often cast in a selfish, self aggrandizing, arrogant light; but Coye is just the opposite, and his fans seem to appreciate that.
"When you see him take the stage he just looks so happy and that's refreshing to see," explained Jean Gleason of Kansas City who's seen Coyle perform live three times. She added, "He's one of the sweetest, most genuine people you could meet, and that comes through at his live shows. It's not very common today, but I find it invigorating, and his energy is great to be around."
Perhaps it was being homeless twice in his life, or the unexpected death of his father in 2009 that caused Coyle to stick out from the crowd by being such a down-to-earth performer. In any case, it's something he appreciates being known for.
"I was playing at a show in Germany and these two girls came up to me and asked, 'is it true you're so happy?' I wasn't quite sure what they meant so I asked if they could say it again. The other girl responded with, 'you look so happy when you're playing, is it true?' That was the first time I really noticed it, but they were completely right. It's pure bliss up there," said Coyle.

About Holman Ranch Vineyard and Winery:
Located at the north eastern tip of the Carmel Valley Appellation, the family-owned Holman Ranch resides approximately 12 miles inland from the Pacific Coast. Immersed in history and romance, the ranch has not only proven to be an excellent growing location for our vineyards but also for the Tuscan varietal olive trees which have flourished under the temperate climate. Holman Ranch estate-grown wine varietals are planted on approximately 19 acres of undulating terrain. The wines produced are unfined and crafted to deliver the true varietal of the grape from harvest to bottle. The climate and terroir of the appellation has played a critical part in the success of their wines. The warmth of the inland valley coupled with the cooling marine layer has proven to be an ideal microclimate for the production of Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. The vineyards' Burgundy Clones have thrived from the perfect blend of ideal climate, southern exposure and thin rocky soils.
The estate wines of Holman Ranch include: Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Rosé of Pinot Noir. Carefully hand-harvested, cold pressed and bottled, the Extra Virgin Olive Oil produced from the fruits of our trees has a delightfully distinctive flavor.
Holman Ranch: Where the Past is Always Present. Tucked away in the rolling hills of Carmel Valley, historic Holman Ranch provides a unique and memorable setting for weddings, special events, family gatherings, corporate retreats, and team-building events. With its charming gardens, stunning mountain views and serenity, this private estate affords old-world charm while providing modern day conveniences. This stunning property includes a fully restored stone hacienda, overnight guest rooms, vineyards, olive grove, horse stables and more. www.holmanranch.com

Perfumance, an innovative perfume recommendation iPhone app launching on November 24, 2013 helps users answer their most pressing questions concerning finding the right fragrance just in time for the holiday gift shopping season. Perfumance helps in selecting the perfect fragrance based on personal preferences and also provides perfume gift recommendations for friends. As users test and rate new fragrances, they develop a Taste Profile and build a want list, which they can share with their Facebook friends who also use Perfumance.
Beneath the sleek interface design is a powerful, highly accurate recommendation algorithm augmented by the expertise of Viktoria Minya, a Paris-based perfumer. Like a loyal assistant, Perfumance is available on demand, and records users’ ratings over time. The more the app is used, and the more input it receives, the more precise recommendations become. Testers report a keen accuracy in predicting their tastes when sampling suggestions from Perfumance.
When first launching the app, it asks basic questions about the user's style and personality and starts building a taste profile based on the answers. Then the app asks what perfumes the user wears regularly. For each perfume, Perfumance lists traits and characteristics and sorts them into preferred and unpreferred traits, adding an extra level of precision to the algorithms.
Based on these inputs Perfumance generates a Try List, a list of the top five perfumes the user is most likely to enjoy and rate highly. The results are given a percentage-based ranking to show how closely they align with the input preferences. Each time a new fragrance is tested and rated in Perfumance, the new ratings will further refine the recommendations. Like a loyal assistant, Perfumance is available on demand, records ratings over time and recommends more and more relevant perfumes. It becomes highly accurate after just 8-10 ratings. Testers report a keen accuracy in predicting their tastes when sampling the recommendations given by Perfumance.
Perfumance includes latest fragrance releases, and updates its database constantly to deliver relevant results, so likely favorites are short-listed even before ever testing them in person. Users can also submit scents not currently listed.
Picking out the right fragrance can be a daunting task, but it gets even more complicated if one is looking for the Perfect Gift for a friend or a loved one. The social features of the app let users share their wish list and give suggestions on what fragrance to buy others as gifts. In addition to all these great features, Perfumance gives insider info on what fragrances top celebrities wear, and allows browsing through perfume choices of the stars revealing how similar their tastes are to the user's taste.
Perfumance is produced in Budapest, Hungary by Mindenki Media Ltd, a company developing relevancy based recommendation solutions.

Immune Response BioPharma, Inc., Today Announces it plans to Keep U.S. NeuroVax Rights for MS Expects Phase IIb Enrollment to begin by Q2 2015 and business update.
* Phase IIb NeuroVax Study to Begin in Q3 2015 upon Successful Government Sponsored Grant Funding Approval in 2014.
* IRBP to Keep U.S. NeuroVax Rights for Multiple Sclerosis Given Safety Issues with Current MS Drugs & Regulatory Environment.
* IRBP Expects to receive Orphan Designation of NeuroVax for Pediatric Use.
"IRBP has entered into discussions with government funding agencies for funding NeuroVax development. We are in fruitful dialogue with the government for assistance with funding initiatives to develop NeuroVax and complete the Phase IIb work to move the vaccine to towards a much larger Phase III study and eventual FDA approval" Mr.Buswell CEO IRBP.
"Given the FDA response towards Lemtrada & safety issues raised and safety issues with current MS drugs we have decided to keep U.S. rights to NeuroVax although partnering will be available for global rights for Big Pharmas who are serious about co-development. Whether we go it alone or partner NeuroVax is perhaps the safest treatment option and effective option in particular for MS patients, it will be safety that wins out in this new landscape of safe yet effective treatment options. I will consider 50-50% for NeuroVax U.S. rights but big pharma will now have to dig deep into their pockets, we probably will not partner until we have our Phase IIb results which will give us further leverage" further commented Mr. Buswell CEO IRBP.
About NeuroVax:
NeuroVax is a Once a Month Dosing injection, Safe, Tolerable, Enhances FOXP3+ Tregs & Regulates Pathogenic T Cells in MS Patients, a First in Class Disease Modifying Multiple Sclerosis Vaccine.
NeuroVax™ has been shown to stimulate strong, disease-specific cell-mediated immunity in nearly all treated patients. NeuroVax™ appears to work in part by enhancing levels of Foxp3+ Tregs, which may help regulate expression of pathogenic T cells in MS patients. The three TCRpeptides combined in NeuroVax™ correspond to one or more TCRgene families which are over expressed in 90% of MS patients. Previous clinical trials conducted by the Company and other independent researchers including a 27 patient clinical trial of NeuroVax have associated diminished levels of Foxp3+ Treg responses with the pathogenesis and progression of MS.This same mechanism appears to be important in the pathogenesis of other autoimmune diseases such as RA and psoriasis. Monthly vaccinations over one year with NeuroVax™ markedly expanded the capacity of regulatory T cells (Tregs) to recognize TCRs expressed by potentially pathogenic T cells. New data were also presented that showed NeuroVax™ produced a significant increase inTCR-specific T cells in patients with MS,including increases in interleukin-10-secreting T cells (IL-10) and Foxp3+ Tregs.

Singapore-based company Third Wave Power Pte Ltd today announced the launch of mPowerpad 2 – its latest and most advanced addition to its mPowerpad range of portable multi-function solar chargers.
The new mPowerpad 2 solar charger charges fast – both from the sun and to devices that are plugged into it. With a battery capacity that is expandable from 3300 mAh to 11600 mAh, it can charge a smartphone up to 8 times*. It also features a pocket battery pack called mPowerpack that can be docked and removed from the main unit, as well as built-in radio, light and insect repellent. Weighing just 500g, mPowerpad 2 is half the weight and 40% thinner compared to the previous version – making it a highly portable and sustainable source of energy for users constantly on the move, within and without the power grid.
“Based on users’ feedback on the first mPowerpad, especially in terms of performance and portability, we went back to the drawing board and radically changed its design. Typically, solar chargers have a trade-off between charging speed and portability, but with the innovative mPowerpad 2, you get the best of both worlds. On the outside, it is lighter, slimmer and ultra portable. On the inside, it is faster, expandable and extremely versatile,” said Lim Chuin Kiat, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, Third Wave Power.
What makes mPowerpad 2 truly unique and portable is the introduction of mPowerpack – a detachable battery pack that can be docked, charged, removed and carried around in one’s pocket or bag. mPowerpack not only supplies ready power on the go, it also provides users the flexibility to add more charging power as and when it is needed.
mPowerpad 2’s 5.4W solar panel captures solar energy really fast – just over an hour under the sun** harnesses sufficient energy to charge a smartphone. The fast charge capability also applies to charging smartphones, tablets and many other USB devices – once plugged in, mPowerpad 2 charges them as quickly as charging from the wall socket.
Designed for rugged outdoor use, mPowerpad 2 has an outer shell made of sturdy high-strength plastic and sealed by a silicone gasket and grommets, making it water- and dustresistant. It also features fixture points that can be attached to bicycle or car mounts. In addition, the built-in multi-function features such as a reading light, flashlight, SOS signal (in Morse code), FM radio and ultrasonic insect repellent make the mPowerpad 2 an indispensable companion.
For home/urban users, outdoor enthusiasts as well as field professionals, mPowerpad 2 provides eco-friendly back-up power and more in a lightweight, portable package. Users can even leave the mPowerpad 2 to continue charging at a base location (e.g. home backyard, office window, car dashboard, campsite, boat deck, etc.) while carrying the detachable mPowerpack around for daily activities or work. In emergency situations where power is disrupted, the mPowerpad 2 can also provide home owners with essential back-up power, radio, light and SOS signal.
“With our increasingly heavy use of mobile devices, battery capacities are struggling to keep up, and there’s a growing demand for portable power both on and off the grid. mPowerpad 2 solar charger is here to meet those needs. Based on the positive reactions from retailers, we believe that this product can make solar charging relevant and useful not just to outdoor and field users, but also to the mainstream consumer.” said VS Hariharan, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Third Wave Power.
The company recently won the Green Technology Award at the Singapore Sustainability Awards 2013 which recognises organisations for their outstanding sustainable business practices and innovative green technology solutions. The new mPowerpad 2 was also an award winner of ‘Fresh: A First Look at New Technology’ at DISTREE APAC 2013 which honours innovative new technology products.
