SEATTLE, Dec. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Alaska Airlines today launched "Deals and Destinations," a Windows 8 travel application that alerts fliers to airfare deals from their hometown and to cities where their friends live. The app is available for free in the Windows 8 Store and can be used on a variety of devices including tablets, ultra-books and any desktop running Windows 8.
"Alaska Airlines is laser-focused on adapting technology to fit how our customers live, work and travel. Our newest app does that and it's fun to use," said Curtis Kopf, Alaska Airlines' managing director of customer innovation and alaskaair.com. "Deals and Destinations delivers personalized fares to travelers and allows them to share those fares with their friends by email or through their social networks, making it easier to connect with friends and family."
With Deals and Destinations, Alaska Airlines is the first U.S. carrier to release a Windows 8 travel app that brings great deals and fares to desktops and enables travelers to easily share them with friends. In addition to integrated social sharing, travelers using the Deals and Destinations app can search for tickets from their hometown or view fares by city or region. To purchase a ticket, customers are then directed to alaskaair.com.
Curtis said the airline's latest travel app is visually stunning, boasting colorful photos and descriptions of the 95 cities Alaska Airlines serves. Alaska Airlines' Windows 8 app was built in five weeks by a team of Microsoft and Alaska employees who worked together to conceive and launch the app.
"Alaska Airlines has embraced the Windows 8 design philosophy and delivered a high-quality user experience," said John Richards, senior director of Windows App marketing for Microsoft Corp. "A cool feature, sure to be a fan favorite, is the social integration that enables the user to quickly identify the deals and destinations that will help them visit friends in their social network."
During the past 18 months, Alaska Airlines has continued to evolve its mobile apps and mobile site, allowing travelers to purchase tickets; view and choose/change seats; check in and obtain an electronic boarding pass; and check flight status, schedules, and upgrade and standby lists; among other features.

Hardware will never be more valuable than on the day it hits your loading dock. Each day new servers are not deployed to production the business is losing money. While Moore's Law is typically cited to explain the exponential density growth of chips, a critical consequence of this is rapid depreciation of servers. The hardware for clustered systems (e.g., Hadoop, OpenStack) tends to be significant capital expenses. In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Mason Katz, CTO and co-founder of StackIQ, to discuss how infrastructure teams should be aware of the capitalization and depreciation model of these expenses to fully understand when and where automation is critical.

Most of today's hardware manufacturers are building servers with at least one SATA Port, but not every systems engineer utilizes them. This is considered a loss in the game of maximizing potential storage space in a fixed unit. The SATADOM Series was created by Innodisk as a high-performance, small form factor boot drive with low power consumption to be plugged into the unused SATA port on your server board as an alternative to hard drive or USB boot-up. Built for 1U systems, this powerful device is smaller than a one dollar coin, and frees up otherwise dead space on your motherboard. To meet the requirements of tomorrow's cloud hardware, Innodisk invested internal R&D resources to develop our SATA III series of products. The SATA III SATADOM boasts 500/180MBs R/W Speeds respectively, or double R/W Speed of SATA II products.

Saatchi & Saatchi launches 'Loveworks' in the Middle East
New book showcases Lovemarks case studies from top world brands.
October 23, 2013 11:52 by kippreport
Saatchi & Saatchi, famous for its Lovemark's philosophy has launched a new book to support its belief that human beings are powered by emotion, not reason. Loveworks: How the world's top marketers make emotional connections to win in the marketplace is authored by Brian Sheehan, Associate Professor of Advertising at Syracuse University and is proof that Lovemark's thinking works.
Kevin Roberts, CEO Worldwide of Saatchi & Saatchi, introduced the theory of Lovemarks ten years ago as "the future beyond brands." Lovemarks, named in 2011 by Advertising Age as one of the top 10 marketing ideas of the decade, forms the basis of Saatchi & Saatchi's work with clients around the Middle East.
Loveworks as a book provides real world business examples and outlines the roadmaps followed by several famous brands to achieve Lovemark status. It shows in detail how many of the region's top marketing companies, including Procter & Gamble, Toyota, Visa and Diageo have won in the marketplace through the application of Lovemarks theory. These companies have maintained a laser focus on making and sustaining emotional connections with consumers.
"Lovemarks has reframed marketing," says Roberts. "Brian's new book presents Lovemarks with rigor, acute observation of marketing practice, and animates with great storytelling. I recommend it to all 'chiefs' in business and organizations, entrepreneurs, brand managers, academics, and advertisers as timely, relevant, and creative."
The book is especially pertinent for the Middle East since Ernst & Young's 2012 MENA Customer Barometer, highlights how MENA consumers are among the most brand loyal in the world.
Adil Khan, CEO of Saatchi & Saatchi Middle East and North Africa explains why; "With a burgeoning economy and a competitive urban population, consumers in the GCC will pay more for priceless value. So whilst loyalty is important of course, striving for love will protect brands from the risk of commodisation and if we take the popularity of luxury in the Middle East as an example – it is a very real risk."
Khan added, "Despite headlines that this is the age of Big Data, Big Emotion is equally important and we believe that whilst data leads to conclusions, its emotion that leads to a level of loyalty beyond reason."
To preview the book online, please visit the website here: www.loveworksthebook.com.
About Lovemarks
Lovemarks are premised on the belief that humans are primarily emotional beings. Our decision-making is more emotional than rationale. Saatchi & Saatchi research indicates, for example, that the emotional quotient of decision-making in buying a car is 63%; for breakfast cereals it is 75%; and for magazines 85%. Lovemarks are capable of generating sustainable growth beyond normal expectations. Our research proposes that moving a brand from being highly respected to a Lovemark, where it is both highly respected and highly loved, offers significant increases in preference, market share and revenue margin. The three elements of a Lovemark are Mystery, Sensuality, and Intimacy. Saatchi & Saatchi has a highly developed, formal methodology for raising brands to Lovemarks. At its core are the five key steps which make up the "Path to Love." These are: Discovery, Exploring, Inspiration, Attraction, and Evaluation.
About Saatchi & Saatchi
Saatchi & Saatchi is a global creative communications company headquartered in New York, with 130 offices in 70 countries. Saatchi & Saatchi is part of France's Publicis Groupe, the world's third largest communications group, and is led by Kevin Roberts, CEO Worldwide since 1997. Saatchi & Saatchi is a full-service integrated communications network encompassing ideas, strategy, advertising, digital and mobile, design, and shopper marketing. Through its creative ideas across all media and all disciplines, Saatchi & Saatchi sets to turn brands into Lovemarks which generate "loyalty beyond reason."

Business groups are up in arms over a second Obama administration proposal when it comes to union organizing elections.
The latest involves an expected "persuader rule" that would force companies to disclose when outside firms are hired to consult when it comes to union elections, according to The Hill.
Currently employers are only required to disclose the hiring of such firms on union elections when the consultants make direct contact with employees, however, the revised regulation would require employers to disclose any work by consultants on union election strategy.
A spokesperson for the AFL-CIO calls the proposal "sensible" while the U.S. Chamber of Commerce says the goal is to "to stop an employer to make its case during an union organizing campaign."
This follows a proposal recently reintroduced by the National Labor Relations Board, to speed up the pace of union elections, which has been heavily criticized by business groups.

New Delhi, Sept 20:
All the wholesale commodities markets were closed here today in view of the bandh called by opposition parties to protest the Government's decision to hike diesel prices and allow FDI in retail sector.
The commodity markets, including bullion and metals in the walled city area, were closed as various trader associations observed the bandh.
Shopkeepers in Chandni Chowk, Khari Baoli, Fatehpuri and Tilak Bazar, a hub for grains, pulses and chemical business, kept their shutters down.
However, Bombay Stock Exchange, National Stock Exchange, Forex and futures commodity markets were opened for regular tradings as the bandh evoked little response in Mumbai because of 'Ganesh Chaturthi' festivities across Maharashtra.

Fabrication, characterization and modeling of novel CMOS-compatible polymer-based redox memory structures
A cross-disciplinary collaboration between investigators in Electrical Engineering and Chemistry has lead to the discovery of a promising new material system for nanoelectronics. This material system is a conducting polymer / inorganic metal oxide heterojunction, electrochemically grown onto a crossbar structure. This heterojunction produces transient current-voltage characteristics that can be controlled by electric fields and exhibits memory effects.
On-line solid phase extraction sample preparation for instrumental chemical analysis
The PhD student supported by this Mitacs Accelerate Grant will work in a collaborate project between Dr. David Chen's group at UBC, Vancouver, BC and PromoChrom Technologies Ltd., Richmond, BC, to develop new instrumentations for combining novel solid phase extraction sample preparation systems (PromoChrom) with state of the art analytical technologies such as liquid chromatography mass spectrometry and capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry.
The Development of Green Carbons from Biomass Torrefaction: Activated Carbon
B. W. BioEnergy Inc. has developed and characterized three major carbon samples from a renewable, cost-efficient feedstock, the Alder and Willow trees. B.W. BioEnergy Inc. has identified the need for facile methods of activating Torrified Alder tree biomass and probing the potential application of these biomasses to adsorb various industrial pollutants in the aqueous phase including heavy metals (Pb, Hg, Cd and Cu) and organics (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) as a major research objective.
Development of a new sample introduction system for inductively coupled plasma spectrometry
Numerous industries and government agencies carry out analyses every day using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) instruments that typically waste 95% of the sample. A greener approach would not generate any sample waste. During this project, an infrared heated pre-evaporation tube will be developed and coupled to nebulizers from the industrial partner so as to allow 100% sample introduction.
Fiber Optic Temperature Sensors: Phosphor Deposition and Processing Improvements
Photon Control Inc. is a Burnaby, British Columbia company that designs and manufactures a wide range of optical sensors & instruments to measure temperature, pressure, position, and flow in the semiconductor, oil and gas, power, life science, and manufacturing industries. The operating principle of many of their products is based on the optical response of phosphor materials and are well suited to applications in harsh environments.
Colorimetric test strips for oil/fuel/ethanol mixtures
There is a need for customers to use a simple test method to determine if the fuel blends they are using are of the proper composition for fuel efficiency, environment- friendliness and engine cylinder compatibility. But it is difficult to determine the composition of oil/fuel/ethanol mixtures without detailed and expensive chemical analysis. It is because the different hydrocarbons in oils or in fuels are hard to differentiate by physical change or by simple chemical reactions such as pH change.
The development of a safety assessment model for spent nuclear fuel disposal with special emphasis on radiolytic corrosion of the copper fuel waste container
The project will involve a partnership between the Western University, where the intern is enrolled in the Chemistry PhD program, and the Surface Science Western (SSW). The SSW is a commercial organization which does contract research and problem-solving for industrial companies and is contracted to the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) to support the development of corrosion models for copper waste containers.
Production of high-value hydrocarbons in photosynthetic microalgae
Steady increases in world population necessitate continued growth in staple food production, together with the production of dietary supplements such as vitamins. Chemical synthesis of supplement compounds is in many cases not commercially viable, and therefore alternative production methods must be sought. It has been shown that algae accumulate supplements, such as the high-value compound astaxanthin.
Development of Novel Chemistry for Copper Deposition by ALD
Copper is an important metal for microelectronics: it acts as interconnects (i.e., the wiring) between the devices in the microchip. As microchips get smaller, it is more difficult to make this wiring by traditional methods. Thus, a new technology (atomic layer deposition, ALD) is positioned to enable the deposition of copper when interconnects need to be formed on the nanoscale. Presently, there is no ALD process that adequately deposits copper with the necessary conductivity to act as an interconnect.
Understanding the structure of a shake to guide product development
Enviroshake Inc. markets a very successful product: composite roof shakes. These shakes have the appearance of cedar but outperform cedar roof shakes in lifetime. The current composite roof shake is primarily composed of a mixture of commercial plastics blended with wood fillers. Enviroshake Inc. would like to redefine the binding agent to a lower priced material whilst maintaining or improving upon the performance of the shakes.

In my ignorance I had reduced this 3,000 year old practice into a simple exercise class. I wasn't in it for the 'hippy dippy' chanting and veganism, I was in it for the abs. Irrespective of the whole 'cool' new revival you wouldn't catch me chanting cross legged, or wearing a red bracelet. I liked meat, wine and enjoying life. I liked having fun.
The very mention of yoga inspires common reactions such as "I can't even touch my toes, I can't sit still, it's too boring, I'm not flexible enough, I already do Pilates, I prefer the gym etc". I'll be honest, as a long time yoga instructor it kind of annoys me to hear these rote and banal responses and throw away comparisons to gym workouts and ab exercises.
There are certain choices in life that are "difficult". Often, this is not because we lack the information we need to make them. Neither is it because it's hard to gauge which option will benefit us more. Rather, it's because these choices are defining - they define who we are as human beings.
Is it just me or is the anticipation of a holiday a major part of the overall enjoyment? Just dreaming of those blue skies and padding about in flip-flops can be enough to keep you sane when sitting for prolonged periods at your desk or when standing nose pressed to the door in the tube.
Yoga is known mostly for the (asanas) aka the Yoga postures in the west. However, Yoga is much deeper than this. Whilst the asanas are an important element, it also teaches us to consider how we treat ourselves, others, how to stay calm and focused, and encourages us to overall look after ourselves and eat well. You can achieve inner peace with Yoga, it has been known to lower the stress hormone 'Chortisol' even after one session.
In Ayurveda summer is associated with Pitta and its qualities of heat and the element of fire. Although we need fire to digest, transform and metabolise, too much fire can literally cause burned-outs, anger, stress, heat rash and heart burn. When the external fire, the sun, is excessively hot we can try to create balance by reducing other sources of heat and embracing cooling practices.
It seems we are no longer assessing our self-development by self-inquiry but by the amount of blue thumbs up we get on our status update. When our sense of worth is hinging on social media, it's time we think about quitting. I mean, what the hell is going on here?
Meditation is not a religion. Nor is it a tradition involving levitation while sitting cross-legged on the floor pretending to be an all-knowing master of the universe. Meditation, sometimes disguised as boredom, slows our breath, lowers our heart rate, relaxes our mind and provides space for self-exploration while restoring our natural energy.
I, like many other agnostic young people living in the spiritual void of modern Britain, flirt with the idea of spirituality. As a spiritual dilettante, I reluctantly stretch through the odd yoga class or attempt to silence the endless flow of internal chatter using occasional meditation.
I felt as if I had arrived in the Garden of Eden - our home for a week was a luxury eco retreat, perched on the top of a hill, surrounded by four acres of fruitful Spanish gardens. The owner of Finca Paradiso, an artist, created a vibrant, colourful environment with Spanish and Moroccan influences.
What exactly does "conscious living" mean? In a nutshell, it means to be aware of your thoughts, speech and actions in every moment without causing harm to yourself or those around you. This basic approach to life may sound simple, but after centuries of tribal conditioning, living with absolute awareness requires deliberate observation and on going personal development.
Have you ever sworn at your yoga teacher whilst she/he counts S L O W L Y to eight in Boat Pose (Navasana)? Felt ecstatic in a deep backbend? Or shed a tear in Pigeon (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana)? Most of us have some kind of mental and emotional reaction to the shapes we put our bodies into during yoga class. Usually we just go with the flow. But once in a while certain poses trigger us.
Cycling itself has had such an upsurge in the past month, that cycle lanes are positively congested and cars are almost a thing of the past! With that in mind and lots of people coming to the studio with tight backs and thighs; I have put down a few key poses to bring some respite yoga to cycling mania.
Has anyone noticed that things are a bit 'off' in the world at the moment? How do we set about course correcting? Can anyone come up with a solution?
It seems anxiety has no friends. It definitely does not understand professional image or even social etiquette. My life was turned upside down in an instant. It gave me no choice but to ignore my good friends and my work which I was extremely passionate about. I was left with an empty buzzing of a turned on computer with no active user at home.
It's not often that you will find me at an event before 7:30am, but an invitation to an interview with Huffpost's very own Arianna Huffington was certainly a strong enough draw. And I am very glad I made it.

(See bottom of page for Spring Specials)
Many women today decide to have some form of breast surgery. Some women want to balance their figure by increasing or reducing the size of their breasts, by way of breast augmentation or reduction. Others want to restore the look they had before having children, which may involve a breast lift. Everyone is different, and there is no 'one size fits all' solution. Whatever your reason, Dr. Warnock will counsel you on the best procedure or combination of procedures to help address your concerns.
Breast Augmentation
Breast Augmentation is a surgical procedure to increase the size and/or alter the shape of a woman's breasts through the use of an artificial implant. Women may choose to have this operation either as a reconstructive technique following breast surgery, to balance different sized breasts, or to enhance the contours of the body. Whatever the specific purpose, women who undergo breast augmentation can expect larger, firmer, and more visually satisfying breasts.
The Surgery
The breast augmentation surgery begins with an incision, made either in the crease of the breast, the armpit, or the perimeter of the areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple). The placement of the incision will vary according to body type and the specifics of each procedure. The surgeon enters through the incision and creates a pocket; either underneath the breast tissue or under the chest wall muscle. The implant is placed in either location, centered directly behind the nipple. Finally, the original incision is sutured.
After Surgery
Once the incisions have been closed and taped, the breasts are wrapped and supported by a bandage. Patients are fitted with a surgical bra or support strap that provides support for up to several weeks. Fatigue, soreness, and discomfort are postoperative conditions that are greatly reduced through medication. Swelling gradually subsides and becomes undetectable in a month's time. Stitches are removed within seven to ten days.
Health Concerns
As with any surgical procedure, complications- although rare, do exist. The biggest fear is a leak in the surgical implant. The FDA currently prohibits the use of silicone filled implants for women under the age of 22. Capsular contraction (a tightening of the scar or capsule surrounding the implant) can occur following a breast augmentation procedure. If this happens, the surgeon either "scores" the scar tissue, or removes the implant and re-inserts another. Other complications include excessive bleeding and infection in the area surrounding the implant. Scars may be evident for several months, but gradually fade. In some cases, the nipples may become hypersensitive or under sensitive for a period after the surgery. In rare instances, the breasts may produce milk for several days after the surgery. To maximize the success of surgery and minimize the risk of complication, always follow your doctor's instructions for surgical preparation and postoperative care. Schedule a complimentary consultation with Dr. Warnock to discuss these issues and any other questions you may have about breast augmentation.
Breast Reduction
Breast ReductionBreast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is designed for women who experience medical problems and discomfort due to excessively large breasts. Problems may include back and neck pain, skin irritation, skeletal deformities, and breathing problems. Although the procedure is typically used to alleviate medical problems, it can also help women who feel self-conscious about the size of their breasts.
The Surgery
The most common procedure involves the surgeon making an anchor-shaped incision around the dark area of the nipple (areola). This incision is then extended downward, following the natural curve of the crease beneath the breast. The surgeon removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, and adjusts the nipple to its new position. The skin from each side is pulled down and around the areola, thereby reshaping the breast. The surgeon then stitches the incision, always aiming for the least amount of scarring. In certain cases, the vertical part of the scar can be eliminated. It should be noted that smoking prior to or following surgery increases the visibility of scarring. Stitches are usually removed in one to three week's time. A breast reduction is performed in a hospital, usually requiring a two to three day stay. The procedure itself takes between two and four hours and is done under a general anesthetic.
After Surgery
Once the surgery is complete, an elastic bandage or surgical bra wraps the breasts to provide comfort and support. The bandage is removed within a few days while the surgical bra stays on until the bruising and swelling subsides (up to several weeks). A small tube may be placed in each breast to drain excessive fluids. Patients may experience minor pain in the days following the surgery, although this subsides in seven to ten days. Most women can return to work after two weeks.
Health Concerns
As with any cosmetic surgical procedure, complications are rare, but can include bleeding, infection, a reaction to the anesthesia, and small sores around the nipple (usually immediately following the surgery). Some women temporarily lose feeling in their nipples, a condition that almost always fades over time. Patients may also experience some discomfort in the breast area for up to a year. Occasionally, the surgery removes milk ducts leading to the nipples, impairing a woman's breast-feeding ability. To maximize the success of surgery and to minimize the risk of complication, always follow doctors' instructions for surgical preparation and postoperative care.
Breast Lift
Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy is a surgical procedure that raises and firms the breasts to a more youthful shape and position. This is done by removing excess skin and tightening the surrounding tissue to support the new shape and contour of your breasts. It is also possible to reduce the size of the areola (the darker skin surrounding your nipple) at the time of your mastopexy. A breast lift won't significantly change the size of your breasts or the upper fullness . If you desire a fuller more rounded upper appearance of your breasts, consider inserting breast implants during your breast lift. This will help with size, firmness, and a more rounded appearance.
Weight gain, weight loss, pregnancy, age, and genetics are all factors that can affect ptosis (sagging) of the breasts. Women seek mastopexy for many different reasons, but whatever the specific reason, women can expect perkier breasts that are lifted without the constant use of a support bra.
The Surgery
Before your surgery, you and your surgeon will decide which breast lift is appropriate for you. The three common incisions are: 1)around the areola, 2)around the areola and vertically down from the areola to the crease of the breast, 3)around the areola with a vertical incision from the areola to the crease of the breast and a horizontal incision at the breast crease.
Once the incisions are made, the breast tissue can be reshaped, excess skin removed and surrounding skin tightened. Closure with dissolvable sutures in a subcuticular technique follows. Incision lines made during your surgery are permanent and will leave permanent scars. These scars will fade and improve over time.
After Surgery
After surgery, your incisions will be taped and you will be fitted with a compression bra and an elastic support strap that will provide support for several weeks. Your breast will probably be bruised, with some swelling. Pain medication will be prescribed by your surgeon to help relieve any discomfort. Within a month's time, a noticeable new shape and position to your breasts will be visible and more aesthetically appealing.
Health Concerns
As with any surgical procedure, complications, although rare, do exist. Some of these include: Bleeding, infection, poor healing of incisions, and blood clots. Be sure to talk to your surgeon about these and other risks. It is important that you follow your surgeons pre and post operative instructions to optimize your healing and recovery.
