Johannesburg, South Africa, 24 February 2012

?

In a recent Window Film Indaba at the Nelson Mandela Square in Sandton Johannesburg, Leon Levy the founder of Klingshield, the largest distributors and installers of window film and tinting in the South African market, discussed in detail the difference between new window film technology and old window film technology.? Levy was also the inventor of see-through signage worldwide utilizing window film in his patency.

?

When I started out four decades ago, the window film business offered an aesthetic benefit as it consisted of dyed films in two colours -? brown and grey,? which were attached to windows to change the colour of the glass. This process offered a slick tinted look to windows which designers and decorators used to improve the visual look of their projects.? Over the years improvement and advances were made in the manufacture of window film and reflective metalized films were being laminated to the dyed films to offer a reflective look once applied to glass.

?

The market place started to utilize these window film products to reflect the sunlight from passing through glass.? Window films became known as energy savers and were being installed in offices, homes and cars to reduce temperatures inside spaces as well as reducing the glare. Some consumers were also installing window film because it stopped up to 99% of the ultraviolet which causes furnishings,? fabrics and upholstery to fade .

?

In recent years window film manufactures have come out with new sophisticated technology in window film with the introduction of many new products which offer far more advantages than old technology window film said Levy at the Indaba.

?

With the introduction of ceramic sputtered film the consumer can now have a window film applied to his windows which will stop most of the sun?s heat in summer and also keeping in most of the generated heat in the room in winter.? The new generation window film is very light,? allowing in most of the natural light, unlike the old style window films which created dark rooms to get the same effect as the new generation ceramic sputtered films. This is a major breakthrough said Levy.

?

Another new window film technology is now also available said Levy. Switchable retro self adhesive window film has now entered the world market.?? This window film consists of a liquid crystal polymer which changes the appearance of window film with the use of electrical currents from a clear window to an opaque window at the touch of a button.

?

Transition films are on our drawing board which will adjust with the amount of sunlight from clear to highly reflective once the film is applied to windows. This will offer the best of both worlds - similar to sunglasses? that get darker when one is exposed to a sunny outdoor situation and goes clear when one goes indoors said Levy.

The next move will be prescription window film designs for one?s personal preferences.

?

These are exciting times for us as leaders in window film technology and Innovation, said Levy with lots of passion and excitement in his voice!

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Tuesday that an argument could be made that Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad is a war criminal.

"There would be an argument to be made that he would fit into that category," Clinton told a Senate committee hearing, responding to a question from Senator Lindsey Graham as to whether Assad could be called a war criminal.

But she added that using such labels "limits options to persuade leaders to step down from power."

Clinton was also asked whether she thought Assad was on his way out eventually. "I do," she said. "I just don't know how to define eventually."

Last week Clinton attended a "Friends of Syria" conference of Western and Arab powers in Tunis that urged Assad to stop the killing of civilians in his crackdown on a nearly year-old uprising against his rule.

Wounded British journalist smuggled out of Syria

But the outside world has proved powerless to halt the killing in Syria, where repression of initially peaceful protests has spawned an armed insurrection.

A U.N. panel has drawn up a list of Syrian officials who could be investigated for crimes against humanity as part of Assad's brutal crackdown on peaceful protests.

The U.S. also criticized Syria's envoy for storming out of an emergency U.N. meeting on the crisis in his country Tuesday, saying the walkout and a fiery speech that preceded it demonstrated the "delusional" nature of President Bashar Assad's regime.

Syria's ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, Fayssal al-Hamwi, accused members of the U.N. Human Rights Council of promoting terrorism and prolonging the crisis in his country by holding an urgent meeting on Syria.

"Anybody who heard the Syrian ambassador should be aware that his comments were borderline out of touch with reality," Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe, the U.S. representative to the 47-nation council, told reporters.

"I think it's a reflection to some extent of what's going on with the Assad regime itself, holding a referendum that is farcical and a mockery of democratic processes when they're in the midst of a humanitarian crisis of their own creation," she said. "I think the Syrian ambassador's comments were equally delusional."

Al-Hamwi took the floor shortly after the U.N.'s top human rights official called for an immediate cease-fire in Syria and unhindered access for aid agencies to deliver emergency supplies and evacuate the sick and wounded.

"We are convinced that the real aim behind holding this session today is to cover up for the violence and murder perpetrated by the armed groups against innocent civilians," Syria's ambassador told diplomats.

Calling it part of "a pre-established plan," al-Hamwi said the meeting was "aimed at attacking the Syrian state and its institutions under the pretext of humanitarian needs."

"We are not pretending that the human rights situation in Syria is perfect," he added. "We are aware that there is a regression in the quality of services usually provided by the government to the population by the regions facing violence. This is due to the armed groups that are using residential areas as bases."

As diplomats and government officials from 70 countries lined up to express their concern about the deteriorating situation in Syria, al-Hamwi announced that his delegation would withdraw from what he called "this sterile discussion."

Before storming out of the room, he denounced a planned resolution on Syria as "malicious and prejudiced."

Foreign Minister Alain Juppe says France is working on a new U.N. Security Council resolution that would call for an immediate ceasefire in Syria and humanitarian aid.

He says that shelling in the city of Homs, where two journalists were killed and at least two wounded last week, had reached "unbearable and criminal proportions."

Russia and China have consistently blocked Security Council efforts to back Arab League plans aimed at ending the Syrian conflict.

Juppe said the resolution "could stipulate an immediate ceasefire and access for humanitarian aid as well as renewing our support to the Arab League."

The U.N. political chief B. Lynn Pascoe said Tuesday that "well over" 7,500 people have died in Syria violence and that there are "credible" reports that more than 100 civilians are dying in the country daily. Activists groups said Monday that the death toll for 11 months of unrest has now surpassed 8,000 people.

"Unfortunately, the international community has also failed in its duty to stop the carnage, and actions and inactions to date have seemed to encourage the regime in its believe that it has impunity to carry out the wanton destruction of its own civilians," Pascoe said.

Members of the Geneva-based council are expected to pass a resolution this week condemning "widespread and systematic violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms by the Syrian authorities."

A draft text supported by many Arab and Western nations says the Syrian regime's use of heavy artillery and tanks to attack civilian areas has contributed to the deaths of thousands.

Libya's Prime Minister Abdurrahim el-Keib said he supported passing a firm resolution on Syria in the council.

"We hope that the Syrian people will have the same freedom and victory soon as the Libyan people are enjoying right now," he said.
Navi Pillay, the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, cited the report of a U.N. expert panel that concluded Syrian government officials were responsible for "crimes against humanity" committed by security forces against opposition members. The crimes included shelling civilians, executing deserters and torturing detainees. Some opposition groups, too, had committed gross abuses, the report said.

The panel has compiled a confidential list of top-level Syrian officials who could face prosecution over the atrocities.

Pillay reiterated her call for Syria to be referred to the International Criminal Court "in the face of the unspeakable violations that take place every moment."

"More than at any other time, those committing atrocities in Syria have to understand that the international community will not stand by and watch this carnage and that their decisions and the actions they take today ultimately will not go unpunished," she said.

Several countries backed her call for Syria to be referred to the ICC, a proposition made difficult by the fact that Syria's longtime ally Russia holds a veto in the U.N. Security Council, where such a move would have to be approved.

Esther Brimmer, the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs, told reporters that while it was up to the Syrian people to decide how to try those responsible for atrocities in Syria, the international community could assist by collecting evidence for future prosecutions.

Meanwhile, Tunisia offered on Tuesday to give Syrian President Bashar al-Assad political asylum if that helps to end a crackdown on the near-year-old uprising against his rule.

"Tunisia is ready in principle to grant political asylum to Bashar al-Assad and his family if this proposal will contribute to stopping the bloodshed," Adnen Monssar, an aide to President Moncef al-Marzouki, told Reuters.

Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki suggested during the "Friends of Syria" conference of Western and Arab powers in Tunis last week that Russia, which has vetoed U.N. Security Council action against the Syrian regime, give Assad refuge. On Tuesday, his aide said Tunisia was willing to take him itself.

ALK (that's the company behind CoPilot Live) is no stranger to GPS apps, but it's starting afresh this week with a new application offering more features for free. CoPilot GPS, which will be available on iOS and Android, goes the way of Nokia Maps in that it stores all those millions of points of interests offline, so you don't need an Internet connection to calculate directions. Download the free version and you'll also get some requisite social networking integration, walking and driving directions, the ability to choose from up to three routes and built-in Bing and Wikipedia search functionality. The app also matches Google Maps with voice-guided, turn-by-turn navigation and 3D maps, but you'll have to shell out $19.99 as a one-time in-app payment for the privilege. Real-time traffic updates are also an option, but that'll cost you an additional $9.99 for a 12-month subscription. According to ALK, the app will be available for iOS and Android in early to mid March, but in the meantime we've got a handful of screens below to give you a taste of what to expect.

Sled dogs rest after returning from a tour run by Outdoor Adventures in the Soo Valley north of Whistler, British Columbia, Canada in 2011.

By Kari Huus, msnbc.com

The government of British Columbia, Canada has published new regulations governing the handling of sled dogs ? a move prompted by a grisly 2010 case?in which a tourism company near Whistler killed as many as 100 animals that become "surplus," amid slumping business.

The Sled Dog Code of Practice is?a step ? a small one, according to critics ? toward addressing problems in?competitive and entertainment dog sledding that is mostly unseen.

"The problem with this whole issue is these (breeding and training) operations are out of the public eye," said Debra Probert, executive director of the Vancouver Humane Society. "People see the dogs in public, but they don?t see what goes on behind the scenes."

The sled dog slaughter came to light only when?one of the employees of Howling Dog Tours Whistler Ltd.?who were charged with killing the dogs?by shooting them and slitting their throats?applied for?compensation from the Workers? Compensation Board of British Columbia because he said he was suffering trauma from the task. The WorkSafeBC document explaining the decision to approve the compensation was leaked, making incident?public?in gruesome detail.

Animal rights critics have long criticized?major dog sled races ? especially the 1,100-mile Iditarod across Alaska, which?begins March 3. Mushers are adamant that dogs love the work, that they?are bred to do it, and that no one loves the dogs more than they do. But critics say pushing the dogs to run 100 miles a day for two weeks is brutal. One or more dogs die in the race?nearly every year, despite the volunteer veterinarians who attend to the animals.

The new British Columbia regulations are primarily?focused on the breeding, training, transportation and euthanizing of the animals. They spell out requirements for pens and tethers, exercise, socializing, grooming and nail care. And they say that euthanizing should not be a means of culling or population control.

The standards disappointed?some animal advocates, including the Vancouver Humane Society, which had advocated?banning sled dog racing.

And?some were outraged that the regulations spell out how sled dog?owners should euthanize dogs if they cannot race anymore and can't be placed in a new home. A diagram illustrates the proper way to?position a gun at?a?dog?s head to ensure a clean kill.

The Humane Society's Probert said that in any case the regulations and standards ?have no teeth? because no resources were allotted for their enforcement.

Nonetheless, the British Columbia regulations move the province ahead of other Canadian jurisdictions, where no specific regulations exist.

Within the United States, Alaska currently has among the weakest legal protections for animals, with only a few lines in state law that require "minimum conditions" for "adequate" nutrition and care. ?

Just last month, an Alaska?court found a sled dog breeder guilty of cruelty to animals after local authorities found 19 dead dogs and 168 more severely malnourished at his operation in Willow. Frank Rich?was sentenced to 180 after pleading guilty to two counts of animal cruelty.

A task force has just started formulating standards to elaborate on the law.

"The challenge is to make them broad enough to encompass all sorts of dog lifestyles," including athletes like sled dogs, said Jay Fuller, veterinarian for the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation. "We?d like to make clear standards for what is acceptable."?

There is no question of barring dog sledding, which is protected by state law, he said.

?Any regulations we adopt have to be consistent with state law, and the law says (the competitions) are OK,??Fuller said.

"What I hope is that there will be a universal standard of care for all dogs," said Maureen O?Nell, executive director of the Alaska Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals, who is taking part in the meetings. She said?that?sled dogs are a particularly sensitive case, and some would like to create special rules for them.

"The mushers are a strong community and I think there has been hesitation to what might somehow be perceived as anti-mushing,? she said.

After the dog?slaughter case in British Columbia, which emerged shortly after Whistler hosted the 2010 Winter Olympics, the dog sledding business took a hit.

"When the incident occurred ? it was a black eye not only for dog sledding but for Whistler," said Craig Beattie, general manager of Canadian Snowmobile, a Whistler company that provides outdoor adventures, including dogsledding tours. In order to reassure customers, he opened up his company's kennels to them and promised them?full refunds if they felt there was anything amiss.

He said the standards mandated by the government were already in place for their sled dogs, and he said he?hopes they will be enforced elsewhere.

"I think it will be way better for the animals, and for the people," said Beattie. "Obviously, the negativity will decrease toward the dog sledding."

As much as treatment methods are involved, the most challenging part, like along with every other problem, is to get the patient to recognize the dilemma, numerous turn down to do that. Just isn?t possible for these people to quit giving all their time to their favorite heroes in games, along with the mental connection that develops can make these go to any measures to do not be pulled aside from the screens of their computers as well as tvs. Nonetheless, treatment options being proposed and utilised by clinics around the world, which include prescription drugs, behavioral treatment as well as anti-depressants to alleviate the anxiety, worry as well as depressive disorders that lots of game enthusiasts suffer from, tend to be apparently displaying pushing benefits. There?s a lot more left to do in this example, when gaming dependency is actually to be ceased from getting a global crisis.

There is a lot that goes into building a successful online business, but if you?re not providing a good customer service to those people that buy from you, then you won?t be able to go far. Here are some easy to use tips to help you improve on your customer service and take it to the next level: We know you want to have greater SEO Link Monster review, and what business on the net would not? First, remember you will need to research and plan well in advance to avoid costly mistakes. If you are interested to know one area where millions of net businesses drop the ball, we are guessing, it has to do with possessing rock solid information on their target audience. Understanding your market is perhaps one of the most important responsibilities you have toward your business. Knowing how to reach out in the most powerful way to your market is one thing that many businesses do not perform well. Never think it is your market who has to do the work to understand you; but rather it is just the opposite. The lack of effective communications will not allow for any kind of meaningful bond to occur.

Offer Individual Answers: All customers that ask you for a solution to their problem want to be treated in a special manner. Although they realize that they are not your only customer, they want you to produce an individual plan just for them. Requesting a customized answer for a problem is only human nature. Now, doing this should not be difficult. This is because a lot of times providing individual solutions is just a matter of adjusting things a bit. For example, let us say that you have a shopping website where people purchase clothes and accessories. You customer advises that they cannot find a particular accessory, even after looking for it. By simply working with this person live and helping them find this product there and then, you?ll have taken your customer service to a whole new level. Instead of just giving directions, you are taking their hand and leading them. This really makes things better. Everybody wants more from their business such as profits, and testing and tracking is one of the surest ways to get more. Talk to people in a good business forum for IM where SEO Link Monster is discussed, and you will find there are tons of ways to apply the principle of testing. To be fair, people who have only begun with their businesses would not know to do this, and it really is something that you would read about later.

It is all too easy to have a sense of excitement early on and want to get things going, but that can cause you to overlook small but important details. The scope of some projects can quickly and easily overwhelm a lot of newer marketers, and in that case do some testing and see what your results are. Examples are all around you, such as doing a test mailing to your list or a small scale ad test.

Have an open mind to what you can do, and in this instance we are thinking about all that is possible with using your own website as a test platform. Metrics are your best friend in so many ways, and the type of information you need to glean from your testing efforts will be conveyed to you through tracking metrics/data. The Importance of Adding Value: Whatever product or service you?re offering, think of ways to make it even more valuable. This added value may not be that significant in your eyes, but could prove to be a big thing for your customers. Customers always want to come away from a transaction feeling like they got a great deal or bargain, which is why you should strive to give them this. When customers receive value that exceeds their expectations, they?ll remember this the next time they want to buy a similar product or service. Besides the added value, be creative with your customer service so that you can find new and more useful ways to serve your customers. Come up with unexpected ways to provide your customers with even more than they hoped for. If you?ve written an ebook that you?re marketing, when people buy it you could throw in an additional report that explains another aspect of the topic. It?s just a question of applying your mind to the task of giving your customers the best possible value.

Acknowledge Missteps: After companies become in control and admit to their fax pas, they can go from having okay customer service, to customer service worth being bragged about. Despite what sort of online company you have, in the end it is managed by a real person and they do muddle things every now and again. So long as you do not make a habit out of it, an occasional slip-up is okay. When your customer gets in touch with you clearly mentioning the mistake you made, by simply apologizing for it and trying to fix it up will gain you much more credibility than just denying it.

This should also give you an opportunity to give them back added value to cover up the mistake. If you cannot deliver your product on time, then provide a perk with the product. Let your customer have a price cut, if there credit card becomes charged too much for the original price. Are you grasping it? We understand very well that ultra spinnable articles is nothing new within the world of internet marketing and business.

Diversity in your business methods and approaches is truly stunning because you will discover leveraging opportunities that you would otherwise be blind about.

Are there any possibilities for using any of these approaches in your business? If so, then what are you going to do about it, now? If you are not sure or feel you do not know enough to make a call, then you can just do more research and learning or ask people at a forum. Do not forget the one thing we always like to beat to death, and that is getting sufficient amounts of relevant information so you can use a method with intelligence. Also there are the human elements to consider such as your particular level of confidence, etc. Have a positive perspective on all you do, and that will contribute to the energy you put toward anything new. If you deliver good customer service and let it be known that you care about your customers, then you will have a successful online business. People that experience excellent customer service from a company not only tend to stick around for long, but also recommend it to their friends and colleagues giving you the power of word of mouth marketing.

Replacing the dollar bill with a dollar coin could saving the federal government $4.4 billion over 30 years

By Eve Tahmincioglu

Would you mind a couple of $1 coins clanking around in your pocket if it could save the government some money?

The U.S. General Accountability Office released a study Wednesday that found replacing the dollar bill with a dollar coin could saving the federal government $4.4 billion over 30 years.

?With the current budget situation, we felt Congress needs to be aware of all the viable options for gaining financial benefits, and replacing the dollar note with the dollar coin provides such a benefit over the long term," Lorelei St. James, the GAO?s director of physical infrastructure, said on the agency's website.

In the near term, however, the monetary switcheroo would lead to losses. In fact, the GAO found replacing paper dollars with coins would result in a net loss of $531 million in the first 10 years, or an average of $53 million each year.

It?s not the first time such a proposal has been put on the table as a way to save money. Last March, the GAO released a similar report on the benefits of going to a coin, generating a huge outcry of both support and opposition for such a move.

This time around won?t be much different.

In September, a bill called the Currency Optimization, Innovation and National Savings Act, aka COINS, was introduced in the House, calling for a move to the coin. A similar bill was introduced in the Senate late last month.

?We are certain that this White House and this Congress will take a serious look at the huge savings in the COINS Act,? said Jim Kolbe, a former congressman and the honorary chairman of the Dollar Coin Alliance, in a statement. ?We think the introduction of this legislation in the Senate, together with the earlier introduction in the House, is a big step forward toward the passage of this cost-saving, currency modernization legislation.?

On Team Dollar Bill is U.S. Sen. Scott Brown, R-Mass., home state of the company that has been making the dollar note for more than a century, Crane & Co.

Brown was quoted today on the website of The Berkshire Eagle, a Massachusetts newspaper, saying a move to coins is ill advised ?because it's the wrong thing for the American taxpayer and would cost Massachusetts hundreds of jobs."

The GAO didn?t look at the cost to the private sector or any environmental issues that could arise. Instead the agency focused on was the cost of the change over the long haul.

The analysis found: ?The cost of producing a large number of coins necessary for the transition would result in a net loss in six of the first seven years. In the eighth year, and for the remaining two years, this situation is reversed: the interest savings outweigh the production costs and the net benefits would be positive.?

By then, many of you might not care whether paper or coins win out because cyber cash could make the debate moot.

According to a November report by ABI Research, ?mobile wallets are coming,? and the number of people paying with their phones will hit 594 million globally in 2016.

Would you be willing to get rid of the paper dollar in order to save the government some money? Share your thoughts on Facebook.?

A year removed from streaking to the national semifinals ? a shocking finish for a team that hosted the first-ever NCAA tournament game west of the Mississippi ? the University of Denver men's lacrosse team has a tall task for its encore.

"Teams are going to come after us," Pioneers sophomore goalkeeper Jamie Faus said Tuesday, "because we're one of the big boys now."

DU, ranked No. 5 nationally, starts its season Sunday against Ohio State at a tournament in Jacksonville, Fla.

The key to remaining among the national elite, third-year DU coach Bill Tierney said, is winning without luck.

"We have to remind our players that we were awfully lucky last year," Tierney said. "There were a lot of breaks that we got. And we have to get to a point this year where we don't need those breaks."

If there was luck a year ago, it was disguised. Sure, DU needed four overtimes to get past unranked Sacred Heart. But less than a month later, the Pioneers toppled defending NCAA champion and No. 4-ranked Duke.

Faus, though, doesn't see any luck involved.

"When you work hard, things fall your way," he said. "We played to our strengths and made teams work for their goals."

For Tierney, a coach with six national championships on his r?sum? from 22 seasons at Princeton, the progress of turning DU into a national power has come faster than expected.

"We progressed a little quicker than we proposed or thought we would," he said. "But the players really bought into it."
