Texas Now Tracking Sexual Assault Evidence Statewide with STACS DNA’s Track-Kit


News Image

“STACS DNA was able to bring the whole state of Texas online in just a few months,” says Steve Gareau, Chief Information Officer for STACS DNA.

STACS DNA, the sample-tracking solutions company, today announced that Texas has completed its statewide rollout of the Track-Kit sexual assault evidence (SAE) tracking system. Live as of September 1, the system gives vital SAE status and location information to users at an estimated 3,000 state agencies, made up of more than 20 crime laboratories, 80 medical facilities, 300 prosecutor’s offices and 2,500 law enforcement agencies. Most importantly, it is available to more than 15,000 survivors per year.

“STACS DNA was able to bring the whole state of Texas online in just a few months,” says Steve Gareau, Chief Information Officer for STACS DNA. “This included gathering feedback from different user groups around the state, customizing Track-Kit based on their input, and developing a comprehensive training plan with sessions for all of the different users – hospitals, law enforcement, DNA labs and prosecuting attorneys.”

Texas has been a STACS DNA customer since 2009 when it selected STACS Database for DNA sample tracking and lab management in its CODIS laboratory. More recently, the state gave both Track-Kit and STACS Database its highest customer satisfaction rating for services. The implementation services STACS DNA delivered for the SAE tracking program included customization, configuration, and training. STACS DNA continues to provide on-going multi-channel support to end-users statewide.

“We’ve developed a valuable relationship with Texas DPS over more than a decade working together,” said Jocelyn Tremblay, President and COO, STACS DNA. “We are very pleased to expand our mandate and support the people of Texas in this important initiative.”

With the enactment of a tracking system law in 2017, Texas became the first state in the US to enact all six pillars of comprehensive rape kit reform and earlier this year established time frames for the submission and analysis of newly collected kits.

Track-Kit has now been implemented in five states – Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, Texas and Washington – with other states to be announced.

ABOUT STACS DNA

https://www.prweb.com/

Award-winning Foton 30 saves 98% of time compared to manual pouch loading and feeding

Less than four months after its debut GBC’s Foton 30, the first affordable, fully automated desktop laminator, has earned three major industry recognitions, including the biggest award in the industry, the People’s Choice Award from NAOPA.

Less than four months after its debut GBC’s Foton 30, the first affordable, fully automated desktop laminator, has earned three major industry recognitions, including the biggest award in the industry, the People’s Choice Award from the North American Office Products Awards (NAOPA). The revolutionary, easy-to-use Foton 30 automatically does all the feeding, laminating and trimming for standard size papers, saving 98% of time compared to manual pouch loading and feeding.

NAOPA recognizes the very best vendor and dealers operating in North America. The Foton 30 was nominated for both the Product Innovation of the Year and the People’s Choice category, which is awarded based on a vote by the general public. This is the third year in a row that ACCO Brands, GBC’s parent company, has won the People’s Choice Award. Previously ACCO Brands won for the GBC® Stack-and-Shred Auto Feed Shredders™, SmarTech Enabled and the Quartet® Desktop Glass Computer Pads.

“Being recognized with a NAOPA award, one of the most prestigious awards in our industry, is a testament to the true innovation GBC is driving with new product innovations such as Foton 30,” said Daniel Charwath, ACCO Brands Product Marketing Manager. “The People’s Choice Award specifically validates our belief that this highly innovative product speaks to consumer pain points and echoes the great reception we have seen in the market over the first few months since launch.”

The Foton 30 also earned the top spot from BindRite, a dealer group that selects just one product for its “Innovative Product of the Year Award.” Additionally, Foton 30 was selected as an Editor’s Choice from Kingswood Media and was featured in a recent issue of Business Info Magazine.

The Foton 30 is available on GBC.com, Amazon, and through select office dealers.

Boston Medical Group Opens New Location in Orlando, Florida


News Image

For 20 years, BMG has been a leading provider of treatment solutions for erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation (PE) and low testosterone (Low-T).

Boston Medical Group (BMG) of Florida has announced the opening of a new office in Altamonte Springs, Florida.

For 20 years, BMG has been a leading provider of treatment solutions for erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation (PE) and low testosterone (Low-T). For men who don’t respond to the common ED pills such as Viagra, Cialis, BMG offers its own proprietary treatment known as The Boston Method™ which has helped over a million men restore their sexual confidence to the fullest. The Boston Method™ uses a combination of FDA-approved medications formulated to suit the individual’s need and health conditions; it is proven to work regardless of age or causes. It is now available to men in the greater Orlando and surrounding areas.

In addition, BMG will be offering their newest therapy known as RejuvaPulse™ Therapy. RejuvaPulse™ sends a series of low-intensity, pulsed soundwave directly to the penile tissue and in the process clears out plaques and promotes the formation of new blood vessels necessary for a healthy erectile response. RejuvaPulse™ is completely non-invasive and it has no side-effects. After a series of 12 treatments of about 30 minutes each, RejuvaPulse™ results in stronger erectile function and increased responsiveness to sexual stimulation.

Another exciting technology is called Boston PRP™ which uses ultra advanced technology to collect Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) from the patient’s own blood sample. Once activated, this PRP releases a cascade of growth factors that ultimately trigger the local stem cells to repair and rejuvenate worn-out tissues. The effects are heathier penile tissue, stronger blood flow and improved erectile function.

Boston PRP™ works synergistically with RejuvaPulse™ and dramatically increases the therapeutic effects of each treatment. Though not often needed, BMG can offer Stem Cell Therapy for hard-to-treat cases.

Boston Medical Group will be treating men with these therapies, and more, at their new office located at 106 Boston Ave, Suite 204, Altamonte Springs, FL 32701. Confidential appoinments can be made by calling (800) 337-7555 or visit http://www.BostonMedicalGroup.com

What Are The Best Car Insurance Discounts And How To Obtain Them


News Image

“To make car insurance more affordable, insurers provide a wide range of discounts. However, only a few of these discounts can significantly lower the price of insurance”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Cheapquotesautoinsurance.com has launched a new blog post that presents which discounts are the best for lower car insurance rates.

For more info and free online car insurance quotes, please visit https://cheapquotesautoinsurance.com/top-car-insurance-discounts/

To obtain cheaper car insurance, drivers should take advantage of the discounts that are available for them. Car insurance companies are known to offer discounts for various reasons. However, only a few are capable to significantly lower the price of auto insurance.

The most valuable discounts, that can help the drives lower their insurance policies the most, are the following:


  • Multi-policy discount. Also called bundling, this type of discount is one of the most rewarding. Policyholders can get significant savings by insuring house and car together to one insurance company. Multi-vehicle plans can also provide significant savings. Depending on the number of combined policies and the value of the insured belongings, the value of the discount can be pretty high. Some insurers can offer a discount as large as 20% of the value of the whole bundled package.
  • Low-mileage discount. Policyholders that moved closer to their workplace, or they retired, should ask their insurers if they are eligible for this discount. Drivers that drive fewer miles than a certain amount are eligible for this type of discounts. Depending on the insurance company, this discount can be as high as 20%.
  • Good driver discount. Drivers that manage to keep a clean driving record for a number of years can be rewarded with a discount from their insurers. Depending on the insurance companies, drivers will have to keep their driving records clean for a period that ranges from three to five years.
  • Good student discount. Insurance companies think teenagers are hazardous drivers. Teenagers tend to be more reckless than other drivers and are also less experienced, so even the responsible ones are rarely given the benefit of the doubt. However, insurers often provide discounts to students who maintain a 3.0 GPA in school.
  • Safety gear discount. Insurance companies will reward those car owners that are willing to make their cars safer. Policyholders should check with their insurers and see what safety devices are approved. Safety devices like anti-lock brakes, GPS tracking systems, rear-view cameras, and more can potentially lower the price of insurance.

CARE Fertility Donates effortless IVF Treatment to Support Family Building Grant

CARE Fertility Donates effortless IVF Treatment to Support Family Building Grant

“The effortless IVF treatment is an effective option for women with PCOS because the innovation requires lower medication dosages with less doctor visits,” said Kevin Doody, M.D., CARE Fertility co-founder.

The Center for Assisted Reproduction, CARE Fertility, announces sponsorship of the National Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association Gala being held Friday, September 20, 2019 at the Alfond Inn, Winter Park, Florida. The National Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association, called PCOS Challenge, is a nonprofit patient support and advocacy organization that is advancing the cause for women and girls with PCOS. Serving more than 50,000 members globally, the organization will be introducing a new “Family Building Grant,” which will include an effortless IVF® treatment from CARE Fertility.

“PCOS is a complex hormonal and reproductive disorder that affects up to 15% of women in the U.S., and is a leading cause of infertility in women,” said Kevin Doody, M.D., CARE Fertility co-founder. “The effortless IVF treatment is an effective option for women with PCOS because the innovation requires lower medication dosages with less doctor visits. We look forward to supporting the Family Building Grant and offering new hope to those struggling with infertility.”

The Family Building Grant will be announced during the PCOS Rise to the Challenge Gala, which is expected to raise awareness and funds for the 501(c)(3) nonprofit’s research, health screenings, television and radio programming, support groups and education initiatives.

“We are grateful to sponsors like CARE Fertility for providing innovative treatments and services that will make a difference in the lives of women with PCOS,” said Sasha Ottey, executive director of PCOS Challenge. “The introduction of the Family Building Grant will be welcomed with much anticipation.”

The effortless IVF (in vitro fertilization) procedure is a new, disruptive technology that greatly reduces costs, time and has success rates comparable to traditional IVF. This treatment is “effortless” because the procedure requires only two or three doctor visits prior to egg retrieval compared to eight appointments with traditional IVF.

“We are proud to support PCOS Challenge because we have a complementary mission to make fertility treatment more accessible,” adds Kathy Doody, M.D., co-founder of CARE Fertility. “For couples who don’t live near a fertility center, the effortless IVF process allows them to make appointments in advance with less disruption to their busy lives and work schedules. Through the Family Building Grant, we are excited to make the dreams of starting a family become a reality.”

Lopez Family Brings TruBlue Total House Care to West Houston


https://www.prweb.com/

Arturo Lopez

TruBlue isn’t just about providing handyman and maid services to the people in our community – although we are certainly here to do that – it’s about helping people enjoy their homes, especially seniors. – Arturo Lopez

When Arturo Lopez’s dad was diagnosed with aggressive dementia, he and his family did everything they could to make sure he was as happy and as comfortable as possible. They did what they could to care for him and to make sure the house was maintained and it gave Lopez a firsthand look at the challenges older adults face as they age in place. Now he’s looking forward to combining his passion for business, his experience with his own family and his desire to make a difference in the community with his new company, TruBlue Total House Care West Houston.

TruBlue is a full-service company that provides handyman, house cleaning, emergency repairs, yard/lawn care and seasonal services that are perfect for busy families, seniors and anyone who want the comforts of their own home without worrying about critical property maintenance. TruBlue West Houston serves Hilshire Village, Spring Branch, Memorial, Piney Point, Hedwig Village, Tanglewood and the surrounding areas.

“I was always interested in opening a business that could help seniors and veterans and, after my experience with my dad who served in the Coast Guard for 24 years, I realized there was a need for a company like TruBlue to help people care for their homes. We kept my dad at home until caring for him and the house started to negatively impact my mom’s health, but I think, if we’d had a company like TruBlue to take care of their house, he could have stayed home longer. That’s the kind of difference I want to make for the people in my own community with TruBlue,” Lopez said.

To assist those with ongoing home care needs or who want to take property management off their plates entirely, TruBlue has a monthly House Care Plus program, which enables clients to hire TruBlue to provide regular, monthly maintenance. TruBlue also works with homeowners, realtors and rental property owners who need to quickly get homes move-in ready and keep them maintained, and has commercial services for business clients.

Lopez has a Master’s degree in International Business and Finance and is the owner of Vistage Worldwide, a local business and executive coaching company. He had been looking for another business opportunity when he started researching TruBlue. He launched TruBlue West Houston with the support of his wife, Elena, who is the CFO for her family’s business, as well as their two children – Gabriel and Alejandro. Lopez’ sister, Linda Lopez, will be joining the business to run the back-office operations.

“My family has been incredibly supportive and I’m excited to have Lisa on the team. TruBlue isn’t just about providing handyman and maid services to the people in our community – although we are certainly here to do that – it’s about helping people enjoy their homes, especially seniors. We are a part of this community and we’re doing this in honor of the people we love, like my father,” Lopez said.

All TruBlue employees are licensed, bonded and insured. To learn more about TruBlue West Houston, call 832-413-2313, email ALopez@trubluehousecare.com or visit http://www.TruBlueWestHouston.com.
