Adtraxion is in business since 2003 as one of the early providers of both DS management software and hardware players. “Since many years we have build a strong reseller network that has installed international customers like Heineken, IKEA, SBS, Deloitte & Touche and many others.

The first Adtraxion network event gave AV-partners a unique possibility to exchange views and to discuss how to grow international business together, using each other’s references and product experience. In this light the Adtraxion Partner Network Award was given to AV-Media from Prague for its cross selling deal with IKEA in Czech Republic.


About Adtraxion: Adtraxion Systems concentrates its efforts and investments towards development, product management, marketing and sales of a dedicated range of high performance digital signage products and solutions.

(SkyNewswire.com)--- An oil rig explosion in the Gulf has brought the President of the United States Barack Obama and Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana to issue statements about their concerns for missing workers and potential impact on the environment of oil spillage. Earlier today Digital Journalist Stephanie Dearing in a news story described the incident regarding the oil rig explosion that happened today with research of various agencies and resources, as well as the company involved in the drilling. She concluded the news article by pointing out, " An expert said the risks are increased when companies drill deeper and deeper for oil, telling Business Week that the drilling might have caused a "blowout."


Jindal released a statement today in Baton Rouge, first updating the status of the search for 11 missing workers. He said,
“I spoke to Admiral Mary Landry with the U.S. Coast Guard a few hours ago and she said that while rescue efforts are still continuing to look for the 11 missing workers, it is believed that they might have been working close to the origin of the explosion.


After his remarks on the status of the search, Jindal continued:
“Our hearts are with the families of those still missing, and their families and friends continue to be in our prayers. We are a close-knit family in Louisiana and when our people are hurting like this, we all feel it. Thousands of our people work offshore and while we know there is always some risk involved, this type of accident is certainly one of the worst-case scenarios you can imagine.”

(SkyNewswire.com)--- La Jolla - A report published April 22 in the journal Genome Research provides genetic evidence supporting the concept that there may be several species of killer whales (Orcinus orca) roaming the world's oceans. Phillip A. Morin, geneticist at NOAA's Southwest Fisheries Science Center in La Jolla, California, and lead author of the paper, had suspected for some time that there was more than one species of killer whale (Orcinus orca, a.k.a. orca). The report on Genome Research describes genetic analysis of mitochondria DNA (mDNA) of 139 individuals from various locations in the North Pacific, North Atlantic and southern oceans (Antarctic). The paper also establishes a method for more accurately assess the differences in phylogeography (historical processes that may explain the current geographic distributions of individuals) and the time of divergence of the genomes. Finally the research team recommends that three genetically distinct geographic varieties be elevated to the rank of full species, and that other types also identified in the study be recognized as subspecies pending additional data.


The killer whale is officially considered a single species; however the likelihood of the existence of several races, sub-species or even species has been a matter of debate among sea mammal scientists for some time. Until now the differences noted in behavior, feeding preferences and certain physical features on whales in various geographic locations throughout the world's oceans have been inconclusive to support the existence of different species.
Dr. Morin said:


"The genetic makeup of mitochondria in killer whales, like other cetaceans, changes very little over time, which makes it difficult to detect any differentiation in recently evolved species without looking at the entire genome,"

(SkyNewswire.com)--- Because of the new products created from the scrap, the environment is cleaner, and tons of low-grade scrap no longer end up in New York's landfills, says Adam Weitsman, the company's president. He says Upstate Shredding has and is environmentally conscious. It has a water management and treatment facility on site, and Upstate Shredding "spends a lot of money making the facilities state-of-the-art and in environmental compliance." Adam Weitsman says that other than smaller profit margins, the financial downturn has had little negative impact on the business. Even in a downturn, buildings still need to be demolished and renovated and vehicles are still crushed into scrap. The company has also benefited from the recent emphasis on "green." So, the recycling business remains profitable and no job cuts have been needed, according to Adam Weitsman.


Some of the types of scrap Upstate Shredding recycles include aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel, lead, and major items like cars, appliances, radiators, and motor blocks. Adam Weitsman states that his company will process more than 600,000 tons of scrap this year. The recycled scrap is sold not only to domestic steel mills, but also worldwide to other countries including Korea, China, India, Pakistan, and Turkey.


During the past 13 years, Upstate Shredding has become the largest privately owned scrap company in New York State, and one of the largest on the East Coast, says Weitsman. Upstate Shredding is a wholesale processor and purchaser of scrap metals. It purchases recyclable material from smaller processors and municipalities, recycles it, and sells it to steel mills and iron foundries for reuse around the world. Upstate's sister company, Ben Weitsman & Son, Inc., was founded by Adam Weitsman's grandfather, Ben, in 1938 as a retail scrap processor. Later, the business was passed down to Adam Weitsman's father, Harold, who was active in it until his retirement in 2005. Ben Weitsman & Son, owned by Harold Weitsman, and Upstate Shredding, owned by Adam Weitsman, were separate entities until four years ago when they merged.

(SkyNewswire.com)--- Fifty-five years ago, high school sophomore Robert J. Adams stepped onto the University of Florida campus for the first time. An avid basketball fan, Adams was competing in the Florida High School Athletic Association Class C state tournament taking place at the university. His team left the tournament triumphant and Adams left with a passion for the University of Florida. Adams became a member of the University of Florida family two years later and this May, 49 years after his own graduation, Adams returned to the campus for another commencement celebration. This time however, instead of receiving his degree, the alumnus was awarded the Warrington College of Business Administration Distinguished Alumnus Award. “I am extremely honored and flattered,” Adams said. “I think about the number of people who have graduated from the University of Florida and I am completely blown away.”

Adams graduated from the University of Florida in 1961 and began his professional career in the U.S. Army. After being discharged as a Captain seven years later, the young entrepreneur began what was soon to be a successful career in the tile industry. At age 27 the Florida home builder ventured out on his own, beginning his first company, Sun State Homes. Under Adam’s leadership the company soon became one of Florida’s largest privately-held home building companies. In 1996, Bob and his business partner decided to close Sun State Homes. Adams and his son Joel began another company, Highland Homes. This venture quickly paid off. With several new home communities throughout central Florida, Highland Homes has quickly grown to be one of the top building companies in the country. In 2008 “Builder Magazine” ranked Highland Homes the nation’s 84th largest building company in the 2008 Builder 100.
