Author ONE World Sports Promotes Joel Feld, Beth Sanford
New York, NY (PRWEB) July 09, 2014
ONE World Sports, America’s Network for Global Sports, today announced the promotion of two members of its senior management team.
Joel Feld has been appointed Executive Vice President, Programming and Production, after working with the organization since early 2013. Beth Sanford has been promoted to Senior Vice President, Marketing, from Vice President, Marketing.
The promotions, effective immediately, were announced by Alexander “Sandy” Brown, President and CEO of ONE World Sports.
“Joel has taken on everything I have thrown at him and executed at a level of excellence that is exceptional,” Brown said. “From helping develop our Stamford broadcast facility, to creating a first-class New York Cosmos broadcast team, to helping secure multiple global sports rights and renewals, there are not many touch points in this company where Joel has not been involved.”
Feld joined ONE World Sports after a thirty-five year career in the sports media industry. He served as Executive Vice President, Programming and Executive Producer for New England Sports Network (NESN). Prior to NESN, he was Executive Vice President and Executive Producer for College Sports Television Networks (CSTV). Before CSTV, he was President of SFX Clear Channel Entertainment Television. Feld began his sports broadcasting career at ABC Sports where he worked for 16 years. He is a thirteen-time Emmy Award winner. He holds a B.A. in history and political science from the State University of New York at Albany and is a member of the Directors Guild of America and the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
“Beth has spearheaded the development of our brand — from positioning to creative to execution, on-air, off-air, online and on-ground,” Brown added. “She has overseen all of our research efforts, our affiliate and trade marketing, and has helped build our social media efforts from scratch. She lives and breathes ONE World Sports, which is enormously valuable for a network of our size.”
Sanford joined ONE World Sports as Vice President of Marketing in January 2013. Previously, she served as a partner in Hyphen3, a strategic-marketing consultancy firm which she co-founded in 2006 and which focuses on expanding audiences for entertainment and Internet businesses. Prior to Hyphen3, she was Vice President of Marketing at Rainbow Media (now AMC Networks), where she helped launched Mag Rack, the first VOD-only television network. Previous positions included serving as: Vice president of Consumer Marketing for Lifetime Television; Director of New Business Development for Time Warner Direct Entertainment; Consumer Marketing Director of Life magazine; Television Manager for Time magazine; and Director of Market Planning at HBO. She earned an M.B.A. from Columbia University and a B.A. in History from Princeton University.

Washington & Moscow Agree that Xtralis VESDA-E is Tops in Fire Protection
Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB UK) 23 May 2014
Just a few months since launch and unprecedented in the industry, the VESDA-E aspirating smoke detector by Xtralis was honored with prestigious product innovation awards at both the MIPS Moscow International Exhibition, and at GovSec Conference & Expo in Washington, DC. Expert judges on different continents came to the same conclusion, that VESDA-E, offers the best features, innovation, user-friendliness, scalability, and impact on the industry. The awards are the 5th & 6th awards won by Xtralis solutions in the past year alone.
VESDA-E was awarded a Platinum Govie Award, the highest in Fire & Life Safety, at the GovSec Conference & Expo, held May 13 & 14. The Govie honors outstanding safety & security products noted for exceptional suitability for USA government applications. The GovSec Conference & Expo is the USA’s premier event for Government, Homeland Security, and Law Enforcement professionals looking for proven strategies and cost effective technology so they can achieve their mission of protecting critical infrastructures, key assets, and communities across the United States. VESDA-E also recently won for Best Product Innovation — Fire Alarm and Security at the 20th MIPS Moscow International Exhibition, held April 14-17. MIPS Moscow is the largest exhibition for Security and Fire Safety in Eastern Europe and Russia. Award winners are promoted in a Russian governmental list of recommended products. Winning companies can sell directly to equipment installers and end-users in Russia without going through lengthy certification processes.
With two prestigious awards already secured, VESDA-E is also competing for an Australian Good Design Award, given to solutions that provide consumers with a clear indicator of the cornerstones of good design — form, function, quality, safety, sustainability, commerciality, and innovation. Good Design Award winners will be announced on May 28, at a gala event in Sydney, Australia. While current-generation VESDA was considered the benchmark for ASD systems, VESDA-E surpasses that with 15 times greater sensitivity to smoke and double the longevity, with 8% less power consumption. Unique to fire protection, VESDA-E can quickly add remote monitoring, servicing, and detection capabilities with the addition of bolt-on hardware modules called VESDA Stax, including a version of its award-winning ECO gas detection solution. VESDA-E offers innovative & easy setup, configuration, remote monitoring, and connectivity options. A first in the industry, VESDA-E can be enhanced with downloadable software applications, called Xapps, which enable new, on-demand monitoring services. Available immediately are DustTrace, DieselTrace, and WireTrace Xapps, to monitor conditions and enable corrective response to take place before threats escalate. VESDA-E can be remotely and wirelessly monitored & managed using an iVESDA mobile app available on IOS & Android mobile devices. iVESDA mobility provides intelligent situational awareness for local & emergency personnel, vastly improving response time and effectiveness.
“We’re excited about the introduction of the VESDA-E series, and we’re showcasing it to our customers across the USA. VESDA-E offers true innovation in sensitivity to smoke, reliability, and connectivity, and we think this will be a great fire prevention solution for a variety of mission critical applications,” commented Paul Nelson, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at ORR Protection Systems, the largest privately-owned safety and fire protection company in the USA. “ORR is known for its culture of innovation, so it’s natural that we partner with Xtralis, a company that consistently delivers innovative & reliable early warning systems for fire prevention,” added Nelson.
Commenting on the MIPS award, Natalia Khazova, CEO of P Pozhtechnika Group said, “the VESDA-E range of products from Xtralis are a great development. The MIPS award is a testimony to the unique propositions that VESDA-E delivers to the market and enables unique access to the Russian market. This will help us in immediately start promoting VESDA-E in the Russian market.” Pozhtechnika Group is a certified Xtralis channel partner in Moscow, Russia.
“These two prestigious awards, coming just a few months since the VESDA-E launch, are proof of the quality, innovation, and market impact that are hallmarks of Xtralis,” remarked Richard Taylor, Senior Vice President — Xtralis Fire Business. “While these awards solidify our reputation for making the best products, it’s really our customers and their loyalty that validates our approach to developing the world’s best safety and security solutions. We’re seeing great demand for VESDA-E and expect it to be our flagship product for many years,” Taylor added.

New Lifenetics® Health Club Chain Targets Baby-BoomersFitness, Anti-aging and Wellness for the over 50s
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 21, 2014
Lifenetics Inc. announces today the launch of a new chain of health and wellness centers, specifically designed for the baby-boomer population and featuring a comprehensive program of health, fitness and anti-aging services.
Lifenetics™ Centers respond to the urgent need to provide customized wellness programs for our aging population. According to U.S. Census Bureau data, by the year 2050, 87 million people in America will be more than 50 years old. However, of the approximately 30,000 health clubs in America, Lifenetics estimates that less than 1,000 clubs cater to this growing and demanding demographic.
“We are living longer, but we are adding to healthcare costs as we live with chronic illnesses. Diabetes, arthritis, cardiovascular disease and obesity now affect more than two-thirds of the U.S. population, or more than 2 billion people worldwide,” commented Alex Martin M.D., co-founder of Lifenetics Inc. “The severity of these illnesses can be reduced by exercise, nutrition and targeted anti-aging treatments, thereby helping to lower the costs to our over-burdened healthcare system.”
Lifenetics™ Centers will offer the best and latest in wellness programs including: state-of-the-art fitness equipment; flat-screen TV broadcasts of celebrity-conducted workouts; live expert webinars for education and demonstrations; a library of information for self-learning about better lifestyles; a juice bar for socializing and healthy nutrition. The centers will also feature a suite of rooms providing anti-aging procedures conducted by qualified medical staff, such as FDA-approved CLINICell® stem cell treatments which use an individual’s own stem cells. Fitness programs have been specifically designed by industry experts in senior fitness to address the needs of older adults who require special attention to cardiovascular, joint and other medical considerations as well as the psychological and sociological changes of aging.
The Lifenetics™ Centers will offer the SheaNetics® 90-day Day Breakthrough™ program which provides consumers with a powerful, holistic mind-body experience in fitness, nutrition and mental/emotional strength. “It is the complete answer to feeling, looking and living great” says Shea Vaughn, the national fitness and wellness expert and co-founder of Lifenetics Inc. “Many of us have the ability to improve our health through the wellness mechanisms in our own bodies. We simply need to learn how to ignite and unlock these mechanisms – that’s the basis of SheaNetics®.”
As a first phase, Lifenetics™ programs will begin in March, 2014 in Los Angeles, California in collaboration with the MetroMD Institute of Regenerative Medicine, a Hollywood anti-aging clinic. The MetroMD facility will integrate its anti-aging treatments with the SheaNetics® 90-Day Breakthrough program and other Lifenetics® services.
Later this year, the MetroMD collaboration will be expanded to the opening of the first complete Lifenetics™ Center in Los Angeles which will offer a full suite of services through monthly memberships and per-procedure treatment options, some of which are covered by health insurance reimbursements as part of the new approach to preventive healthcare. The Company is now actively seeking similar collaborations with medical clinics and fitness clubs/studios to open additional Lifenetics™ centers in major metro areas across the United States and internationally.

Malcovery has quickly gained commercial success with many Fortune 500 enterprise customers such as eBay, Facebook, IBM, Citi, LinkedIn, Assurant, and Visa.
