ADSI to Exhibit Full Line of New Weighing & Dimensioning Solutions at ICON15














The new Avery Weigh-Tronix ZP900 scale includes serial, USB and true Ethernet connections and can be integrated with ADSI’s dimensioning solutions.


Schaumburg, IL (PRWEB) June 16, 2015

Advanced Distribution Solutions, Inc. (ADSI) is demonstrating the latest technology in weighing, dimensioning and shipping solutions at the ConnectShip ICON15 Shipping Technology Conference, June 15-17, 2015, in Chicago, IL. “Today’s shippers need fast, integrated tools that capture accurate measurements on every package without increasing labor costs,” said Bob Fischer, CEO and president of ADSI. “We’ve integrated our shipping systems with a wide range of weighing and dimensioning systems and we’re excited to be bringing some of the newest technology to the show.”

DIMENSIONING TOOLS FOR SMALL PARCEL AND LTL SHIPPING

ADSI will be demonstrating its shipping software with mobile dimensioning tools, tabletop and floor scales, and 3D imaging dimensioning solutions such as:

AVERY WEIGH-TRONIX ZP900

This new modular countertop postal scale has been designed specifically with the logistics market in mind. It is rugged, reliable and designed for long life in industrial environments. The ZP900 offers serial, USB and true Ethernet connectivity. It can be integrated into ADSI’s software as well as other third party software and hardware solutions.

The ZP900 can also be integrated into a kiosk or static dimensioning solution. The scale’s weighing mechanism is suspended underneath the platter, allowing the scale to fit flush with a counter so that boxes and parcels can be moved on and off the scale with minimum effort.

The ZP900 features Quartzell technology, a tried and tested form of weighing cell that has been further developed to offer faster, more precise weighing.

iDIMENSION 3D IMAGING SYSTEM – IRREGULAR OBJECTS? NO PROBLEM

From small businesses and mail counters to large operations and warehouses, iDimension can be used in a variety of applications to ensure freight compliance and deter revenue loss from miscalculated dimensions.

With innovative sensing technology and 3D imaging components, the iDimension 200 is a flexible, mobile free-standing solution that captures dimensions, weights, bar codes, OCR text and images of static items. It dimensions packages, flats and irregular objects, and converts irregular objects like cylinders, spheres, tubes, polybags and irregular objects to accurate cubed dimensions.

The iDimension has no moving parts and requires virtually no alignment or special handling when placing an object under the work area. Parcels are dimensioned more accurately and faster than manual measurements. In an industry-leading 0.2 seconds, dimensions are calculated within 0.2 inches of accuracy. The iDimension system is easy to set up, can be operated in manual or automatic mode and can be integrated with most shipping scales.

SIZE-IT MOBILE DIMENSIONING TOOL

ADSI will also be demonstrating Size-IT, its mobile digital dimensioning tool. Size-IT automates the process and generates accurate results in three easy steps. Size-IT digitally captures the length, width and height dimensions as the warehouse staff measures the package and auto-calculates the dimensional weight for both domestic and international shipments.

Size-IT can be configured to wirelessly transfer dimension calculations and item package details to virtually any business application software without the need for costly integration. It works well with receiving programs, updating master inventory records, and ADSI’s order packing and shipping software solutions, as well as programs such as UPS WorldShip and FedEx Ship Manager.

“Our customers are asking for flexible options in automating the dimensioning process,” Fischer said. “We’ve assembled a complete dimensioning product line, integrated with our order fulfillment and shipping software, to meet a wide range of distribution requirements.”

Feldman Browne Olivares Wins Appellate Victory Holding Joint Employers Liable For Large Civil Penalties













Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) June 06, 2015

Feldman Browne Olivares wins appellate victory clarifying that large California employers who knowingly use misclassified workers and fail to take remedial action will be liable for large civil penalties under PAGA.

In 2013, Feldman Browne Olivares attorneys, Lee R. Feldman and Alicia Olivares, filed a class action entitled entitled Noe v. Canvas Corporation, et al. (BC486653), alleging that workers hired off of Craigslist by Canvas Corporation to sell food and beverages at Southern California concert and sporting venues owned by Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) were not paid the minimum wage. Feldman Browne Olivares argued that because AEG and its concession subcontractor, Levy Premium Foodservice Limited Partnership (“LEVY”) had the contractual right to control all aspects of the workers’ employment, including what, how, when, where and for what price they sold to AEG’s customers on AEG’s property, these workers were employees of AEG and LEVY. AEG and LEVY argued that they were not responsible for paying the workers or ensuring that they were properly classified as employees because Canvas Corporation was the entity that hired them and made the classification decision.

In 2014, after extensive discovery, AEG and LEVY brought a motion seeking to have the claims against them thrown out. Feldman Browne Olivares successfully opposed the motion on all claims except one—for violation of Labor Code Section 226.8, which provides for large penalties of up to $ 25,000 per employee against any employer that engages in the act of willful misclassification of an employee as an independent contractor. The trial court reasoned that AEG and LEVY could not be held liable for engaging in the act of misclassification because Canvas had already classified the workers as independent contractors before they ever stepped foot on AEG property. Feldman Browne Olivares argued that AEG and LEVY had “participated in” and ratified the misclassification decision by employing the misclassified workers despite knowing they did the same jobs as regular employees and knowing they were not paid minimum wage for work done on AEG premises servicing AEG’s customers.

Feldman Browne Olivares filed an application for a Peremptory Writ of Mandate, asking the court of appeals to step in and reverse the trial court’s dismissal of the claim against AEG and LEVY for willful misclassification. On June 1, 2015, the Court of Appeals ruled that the trial court had erred in concluding that joint employers who did not directly misclassify workers cannot be held liable for the penalties set forth in Section 226.8. The Court of Appeals held that Feldman Browne Olivares was correct in arguing that joint employers who were aware of misclassification and took no action to remedy such misclassification can be held liable for huge penalties through the California Private Attorney General Act (“PAGA”). The Court held:

“By choosing to use words with a broader connotation-prohibiting employers from “engaging in” the act of willful misclassification-we presume the Legislature intended to penalize a broader class of employers that includes those who, through their acts or omissions, have knowingly participated or involved themselves in the willful misclassification decision. As applicable here, a joint employer who knowingly acquiesces in a co-joint employer’s decision to willfully misclassify their joint employees has necessarily “involved” itself in that misclassification decision.

“We conclude that, contrary to the trial court’s interpretation, section 226.8 is not limited to employers who make the misclassification decision, but also extends to any employer who is aware that a co-employer has willfully misclassified their joint employees and fails to remedy the misclassification.”

The Noe decision is expected to have far-reaching impact. It has become quite common for large companies like AEG and LEVY to recruit workers to service their customers through small, poorly funded and often judgment-proof intermediary companies that flout worker protections and basic California labor laws requiring payment of minimum wage, overtime and providing meal and rest breaks. It has become a popular business model for companies like AEG and LEVY to cut costs (employee benefits and salary) by subcontracting out the procurement of labor to other entities that agree to bear those costs. By doing so, the large corporations like AEG are guaranteed a fixed profit without the burden or expense of formally employing the workers servicing their customers. Under the Noe decision, large employers can no longer avoid liability for the harm to workers hired by subcontractors who ignore state wage laws. Feldman Browne Olivares is ecstatic that their hard work, and that of their appellate co-counsel Norman Pine and Michael Rubin, succeeded in winning this important victory for California workers.

About Feldman Browne Olivares: The Attorneys at Feldman Browne Olivares exclusively represent California employees. Through aggressive litigation and zealous advocacy, Feldman Browne Olivares has recovered more than $ 140,000,000 in verdicts and settlements on behalf of California workers and their families. Feldman Browne Olivares has been recognized as one of the top Employee Rights Firms in California and our Partners and Attorneys have been repeatedly recognized as top Employee Rights Attorneys.

Lanesboro, Minnesota: An Epicenter of Hot Business Trends
















Lanesboro, Minnesota


Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) June 04, 2015

The bucolic small town of Lanesboro in Southeastern Minnesota – population 754 – is welcoming ten new small business ventures into its thriving downtown and surrounding areas. In response, the Lanesboro Area Chamber of Commerce will be holding a celebration of small town business pride featuring ribbon cuttings, walkthroughs, and grand openings on Tuesday, June 9th, starting at 11am.

When driving in from Highway 8, you’d swear you were entering an idyllic European Village. Nestled among the picturesque bluffs, Lanesboro, is located in the driftless region. Minnesota’s Root River gently flows through the town, and one of the other gems that makes the town sparkle is is the DNR groomed Root River State Bike Trail. Also noted as a creative hub, the city is home to Lanesboro Arts, one of the 2014 recipients of the Bush Prize for Community Innovation, as well as the nationally recognized Commonweal Theatre.

Since the late 1990s, Lanesboro has made a name for itself as a premiere destination in the American Midwest and beyond with historic lodging, a plethora of quaint bed and breakfasts, cozy eateries, and unique shopping destinations. On hand for the festivities on June 9th will be the Lanesboro’s Mayor, City Administrator, members of the EDA and President of the Area Chamber of Commerce, among others.

“The entire town is buzzing with excitement,” said Chamber Director of Tourism Eric Leitzen. “The new businesses are adding to an already bustling main street scene, and several other businesses are under construction and set to open within the year. Lanesboro shows what small town America can truly be with a focused goal, great citizens and a dedicated, hardworking spirit.”

The hot business trends of up-cycling and recycling really seem to have taken hold in Lanesboro. Three new antique/resale shops are opening along with a motorcycle accessories shop and inn, a liquor store, craft shops, a diner, a two-story pub and a downtown outpost for the Eagle Bluff Envionmental Learning Center.

The Lanesboro Economic Development Association Co-Chairs Catherine Glynn and Bill Swanson are “thrilled with the innovative and entrepreneurial energy flooding the town.” They say, “The EDA plans to leverage this insurgence of new businesses to draw more young families, artisans and creative entrepreneurs.”

The Area Chamber of Commerce, who will be hosting the event, serves the surrounding Bluff Country area as an organizational and promotional non-profit body for the improvement and encouragement of small town business.

Teamwork with my husband, who serves as an advisor, and teamwork with our wonderful team at Confirm Biosciences, which I like to call the extended part of our family,” she continued.

Now in its 29th year, the program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities in more than 60 countries throughout the world.

Genedata Screener Now Supports Streamlined Collaboration among Pharmas and CROs














Basel, Switzerland (PRWEB) May 12, 2015

Genedata, a leading provider of advanced software solutions for drug discovery and life science research, today announced that the Genedata Screener® platform supports data- and result-sharing with Contract Research Organizations (CROs). Genedata Screener provides a framework for systematic import, processing, and end-result propagation for all types of screening experiments, making it ideal for different collaboration models and partner ecosystems among pharmaceutical companies and CROs. As used by Roche, Genedata Screener is a comprehensive software solution supporting global operations, leveraged as a collaboration platform to help expedite drug discovery, reduce data analysis costs, and lower overhead for pharmaceutical R&D.

Web-based and cloud-compatible, Genedata Screener can be used as a data analysis and exchange platform. Installed at a CRO site, on-site or in the cloud, it enables a pharma’s CRO partner to easily exchange data with the pharma’s Screener instance. The system’s inherent business logic allows pharmas to maintain consistent workflows with their company-specific business rules for results regardless of the CRO doing the analysis.

Secure and Consistent Platform for Collaborative Research Lowers Total Cost of Ownership

Pharmaceutical companies – both large and small – are using collaborative research to help replenish therapeutic pipelines and advance innovation. Such collaborative research models provide access to specific technologies, streamline operations, lower costs, and accelerate drug discovery. Outsourcing screening and the corresponding data analysis to CROs is a valuable research model and business strategy for many leading pharmaceutical companies. This model increases flexibility for drug discovery and draws from a broader expertise for improved results.

Successful collaborative research with external partners requires all parties to have complete insight into the data produced by an experiment, the data analysis methods applied, and the rationale for decision making (e.g. specific artifact corrections or decisions on hit calling and compound progression). Having both in-house and external researchers using the same consistent methodology and standardized processing of results is critical for maintaining research integrity. Genedata Screener creates a framework for a successful collaboration paradigm as it provides a platform for sharing business rules and analysis methodologies as well as strict control of access, (re-)analysis, and modification permissions. Furthermore, all steps and modifications are tracked along the process, yielding a full audit trail across different functions and organizations.

Enabling CROs to collaborate with in-house scientists, Genedata Screener not only extends the lab bench, it also supports a variety of collaboration models (i.e. multi-sided and peer-to-peer). It helps pharmaceutical companies go beyond commodity screening with end-to-end data sharing and analysis, which can transfer raw data and results between two instances of Screener. Additional platform features include:


Automated Data Exchange for long-term collaboration spanning several projects. Results are synchronized through different Genedata Screener instances to easily collect and centralize project data and compound results.
IP Protection as the collaboration server is a Genedata Screener instance that requires precise definition of project access and information content per project.
Large Dataset Analysis – even in the cloud – to enable cost-effective and streamlined management and delivery of data analysis.

“Genedata Screener, used as a modern collaboration platform, continues to support evolving R&D needs without organizations making additional technology investments,” noted Dr. Othmar Pfannes, CEO of Genedata. “And, the beauty of this industry-leading low TCO is that it also accelerates the pace of novel drug discovery.”

About Genedata

Genedata transforms data into intelligence with a portfolio of advanced software solutions, which make research data accessible and understandable and research processes more efficient. These solutions are used worldwide by leading pharmaceutical, industrial, and agricultural biotechnology companies as well as academic research organizations. Genedata innovations enable scientific discovery that fights disease and improves health and quality of life worldwide.

An unsecured business loan, also known as a business cash advance, allows companies to obtain money quickly and without the need for collateral or backing capital. This option is especially enticing for service companies and others that do not have a lot of hard assets on hand.

Another benefit of an unsecured business loan is that there is no need to show a long business history or a detailed business plan. This is great for companies that are relatively new to the marketplace.

While these are great benefits, there are a few things to keep in mind about unsecured business loans. The first one is that this relatively easy money comes with a cost – generally higher interest rates than those charged by traditional banks. Therefore, these business cash advances should only be used to cover short-term financial needs. If your company needs to do something like buy real estate, it’s better to get a traditional mortgage or other long-term financial note.

To apply for funding for your small business, use the form on the right to begin the application process.
