Insurance Experts Explain How Useful Car Insurance Quotes Really Are


News Image

“Car insurance quotes are the most important price comparison tool available on the market. With their help, you can save 5-10% on car insurance premiums”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has released a new blog post that explains the importance of car insurance quotes and why every driver should compare prices.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/how-important-are-auto-insurance-quotes/

Car insurance costs vary widely among different insurance providers. Even more, costs may increase over time, with each renewal. Getting car insurance quotes ensures that drivers will always get a reliable coverage plan. Use http://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com to get free quotes and compare them.

Quotes will help drivers plan their budgets. When comparing accurate quotes, the driver will be informed about the average costs of insuring him. This will help him plan the budget in advance. Furthermore, if the costs seem high, he will have to make a compromise and reduce the coverage. Or, for example, he can increase deductible and reduce the premiums.

Car insurance quotes will also help drivers avoid scams or companies practicing hidden fees. In many cases, extremely beautiful things are not always what they seem to be. This is also true for the insurance market. When finding companies that offer really-really low prices, a driver should be at least suspicious. It is always better to pay more, around the average costs, than to wake up with some problems. Before signing any contract of this type, with very low prices, ask a lot of questions regarding pricing and exclusions. Certainly, nobody wants to make a claim for a covered accident and discover that the claim is rejected.

Quotes will help drivers save money. This the most important benefit that quotes bring. By comparing accurate prices, the driver will be able to track the companies with the best prices on the market.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.

Startup Foundry DataTribe Announces Winner of Second-Annual Cybersecurity Startup Challenge


News Image

“Code Dx combines next-gen technology with the market changing focus we look for in this competition,” said Mike Janke, co-founder of DataTribe.

DataTribe, a global cyber foundry that invests in and co-builds next-generation cybersecurity and data science companies with nation-state experienced technical teams from the intelligence community, research labs, and industry-leading experts, announced today the winner of its second-annual DataTribe Challenge is Code Dx Inc., based in Northport, New York.

The DataTribe Challenge is a global competition to identify and develop high-technology startups with a vision to disrupt cybersecurity and data science. Past winners have found the DataTribe Challenge to be a catalyst for rapid growth. The competition winner last year, Prevalion, closed its Series A round valued at $35M million in July – less than 12 months after winning the contest.

Code Dx is a provider of a next-generation, automated application vulnerability management solution. As the 2019 winner, the company is now eligible to receive up to $2 million in seed capital from DataTribe. The investment could also potentially include a follow-on investment up to $6.5 million in Series A venture funding from DataTribe and AllegisCyber, a Silicon Valley-based cybersecurity venture capital firm.

Code Dx was founded on the principle that application vulnerability management should be an integral part of the software development process. Code Dx offers a tool that allows multiple, disparate testing tools to work to together and provide one set of correlated results on an easy-to-read dashboard. This accelerates the application security process, lowering costs and speeding development times. Code Dx’s software suite grew from research funded by the Department of Homeland Security, Science and Technology Directorate’s Small Business Initiative Research (SBIR) program.

This heritage matched up well with DataTribe’s unique model. DataTribe has built a unique reputation as a partner with elite engineering teams at the cutting edge of innovation, typically leveraging experience gained at national security agencies or government R&D labs. DataTribe’s mission is to advance the state-of-the-art in cybersecurity and data science.

“We’re proud to announce Code Dx as the winner of what was a highly selective competition and a difficult decision,” said Mike Janke, co-founder of DataTribe. “Code Dx combines next-gen technology with the market changing focus we look for in this competition. We’re ready to provide Dr. D’Amico and her team with the resources to go continue accelerating their growth and investment benchmarks.”

“I’m honored that Code Dx has been chosen the winner by such a respected judging panel,” said Anita D’Amico, Ph.D., CEO of Code Dx. “Code Dx provides an easy and cost-effective solution for managing software vulnerabilities faster than was possible before. It’s fitting we’re now partnering with DataTribe, since our company started as a $99,000 Small Business Innovation Research grant from DHS. The Code Dx application vulnerability management system has already become a mature product that is used throughout government and industry to rapidly find and fix software vulnerabilities, and this win makes our future even brighter.”

The final competition was held on November 14th at City Garage, Baltimore MD. The distinguished panel of judges included:

  • Daniel Weinard, Co-founder of Shopify, a publicly traded provider of eCommerce solutions
  • Jon Callas, Senior Security Scientist Apple, Senior Technology Fellow at ACLU and Co-founder of Blackphone
  • John Stewart, SVP, Chief Security and Trust Officer at CISCO
  • Bob Ackerman, Founder and Managing Director of AllegisCyber
  • Dmitri Alperovitch, Co-founder and CTO of CrowdStrike Inc.
  • Mike Aiello, CEO of AppGate

Kenko Tokina announces release of the NEW atx-i 100mm F2.8 Macro FF


Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 Macro FF

“This is the second lens offering in the new atx-i series.” says Yuji Matsumoto, President at Kenko Tokina USA. “It combines the award-winning optics of the original ATX model with a sleek new look that matches the cosmetics of today’s advanced DSLR cameras.”

Kenko Tokina, Japan’s leading manufacturer of premium camera accessories, is releasing the Tokina atx-i 100mm f2.8 Macro FF lens for full-frame DSLR cameras from Nikon and Canon. Distributed in the US exclusively by Kenko Tokina USA, this new lens provides unparalleled versatility with the award-winning optics.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF Macro is a versatile mid-range auto-focus telephoto lens with excellent close focusing capabilities reaching life-sized (1:1) reproduction at 11.8 inches (30cm) from the sensor plane. Engineered for Canon EF and Nikon F mount full-frame DSLR cameras.

At (1:1) reproduction, the lens provides a very comfortable 4.5 inches of working distance between the front of the lens and your subject. The fast f/2.8 aperture makes it easy to focus in low light and renders soft beautiful bokeh. Making it an excellent choice for portraits, landscapes, video, and small world photography.

The Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 Macro is a “flat-field” optical design that suppresses the field-of-view curvature to zero. This means the lens yields excellent edge-to-edge sharpness at all focus distances and apertures. The lens’ multi-coatings render natural color with extremely low light falloff, perfectly controlled chromatic aberration, flare and ghosting.

The One-Touch Focus Clutch Mechanism makes switching from auto-focus to manual focus simple. While in AF mode the user only needs to snap the focus ring back toward the camera to engage “real” manual focus control. This gives photographers an authentic tactile MF feel with hard stops on either side of the focus range like traditional manual lenses. Additionally, the directional rotation of the focus ring matches the direction of proprietary Nikon and Canon lenses.

“This is the second lens offering in the new atx-i series.” says Yuji Matsumoto, President at Kenko Tokina USA. “It combines the award-winning optics of the original ATX model with a sleek new look that matches the cosmetics of today’s advanced DSLR cameras.”

Worldwide sales of the Tokina atx-i 100mm F2.8 FF Macro super wide angle zoom lens will begin on December 6, 2019 with authorized Tokina USA retailers taking pre-orders November 15, 2019.

Estimated USA Street Price of $429.00

Emsculpt® Offers First-of-its-kind Non-invasive Body Sculpting Treatment


Revolutionary New Technology Offers Dual Treatment to Address Abdominal Fat and Muscle Tone

We introduce a groundbreaking new approach to sculpting the abdomen with Emsculpt –the first and only non-invasive body shaping procedure that simultaneously addresses both Muscle and Fat. Bringing an entirely new technology to the category, Emsculpt utilizes HIFEM® energy to induce powerful muscle contractions which builds muscles and burns fat. FDA-cleared for the improvement of abdominal tone and strengthening of the abdominal muscles, Emsculpt helps patients achieve next-level, contouring results.

The current approach to body shaping is through circumferential reduction; however, overall body contour is affected by muscle structure as well. Emsculpt goes beyond waist line reduction to address abdominal contouring through muscle tone, and we’re thrilled to now offer this combination to many patients nationwide.

Muscles represent about 35% of the human body, but existing aesthetic treatments only address fat. Emsculpt Clinics introduces a first of its kind application of a unique magnetic field. HIFEM technology penetrates through skin to impact fat, as well as muscle tissues. Once penetrated, the energy induces 20,000 supramaximal muscle contractions that are accompanied by a rapid metabolic reaction in fat cells to not only strengthen and build muscle, but also reduce fat. This is the ONLY technology that builds muscle and burns fat simultaneously, all while leaving the surrounding tissues unaffected.

Tested in five unique abdominal clinical studies[1,2,3,4,5] utilizing all four established methods of evaluation including MRI, CT, Ultrasound, and Histology, Emsculpt delivered consistent results in muscle gain and fat loss:


  • 19% reduction in subcutaneous abdominal fat[2,3]
  • 16% increase in muscle mass[2,3]
  • Average waist reduction of 4.4cm[5]
  • 96% satisfaction with treatment results[5]

For optimal results, four 30-minute treatment sessions over the course of a two-week period is recommended. Best results will be seen after 3-months with continued improvement over a 6-month time period.
