Archymed launches Althiar business unit and website www.althiar.com

January 30, 2010 By: mayeul Category: Science & Technology No Comments →

The IT and Business Development Consultancy Archymed is delighted to announce the simultaneous launch of a new business unit named Althiar and its website www.althiar.com. Althiar will be in charge of commercialising Althiar 3D Engine and its optional components – Althiar Make Your Game and Althiar World Builder.

Being familiar with the 3D sector, Archymed noticed the segmentation of this market and the lack of an open and global solution that would free businesses and programmers alike from tedious specifications and technical restrictions. This is how the idea of a multi-platform and multi-compatible 3D creation tool was born. Archymed’s R&D department then developed what is now Althiar 3D Engine and its complementary components – Althiar Make Your Game and AlthiarWorld Builder. Althiar 3D Engine is a versatile tool that can used in all fields – video games, 3D animation films, education/training, architecture, etc. More than just an engine, it is a real multi-project 3D studio that eases the creation process and generates added value.

Althiar’s new Director of Operations David Séjourné has 15 years’ experience in Sales and Business Development in the IT, Technonoly and Internet sectors. “I am delighted to be part of this adventure. The product is extremely exciting and will revolutionize the way 3D programming studios work.”

Archymed is also proud to announce the creation of a dedicated Internet portal – www.althiar.com – where wou will be able to find a thorough description of the Althiar 3D Engine and its optional components, a set of demos illustrating the main Althiar 3D Engine features and of course full contact details as well as a company overview.

Yamaha BD-S 1065 Blu-ray player reviews published by Televisions.com

January 30, 2010 By: lukeallentv Category: Entertainment No Comments →

Televisions.com has evaluated the Yamaha BD-S 1065’s performance using a combination of laboratory testing and subjective output-quality analysis. In a review published on the site’s homepage today, this method of evaluation resulted in an overall rating of 7.8 out of 10. The review awarded points for the player’s high-quality output of film-based content, as well as its support for BD-Live, but expressed disappointment with the device’s DVD de-interlacing. Televisions.com also criticised the Yamaha’s audible fan and slow disc drive. The comprehensive audio outputs clearly impressed the review team and were perhaps the player’s biggest saving grace – the review applauds, for example, the presence of an analogue output for HD audio: “Yamaha’s new BD player is one of only a few on the market to deliver the new audio formats Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD to older HDMI-1.1 receivers that lack a bit-stream decoder.”

The review goes on to examine in detail the picture quality with DVDs and Blu-rays. High-definition signals from Blu-rays impress the reviewers, who describe the resulting pictures as flawless. It’s a different story with DVDs, which draw various criticisms from Televisions.com. The site’s editor-in-chief and head tester, Florian Friedrich, said in the review: “All test sequences from films or TV material – without exception – suffered from flicker. This is reminiscent of the first DVD players released in the 1990s!” There’s also harsh criticism of the lack of multimedia capabilities: The review points out that – via USB, at least – the player only supports BD-Live and JPEG playback, which is well below expectations for a device at this price point.

Criticism even extends to the player’s remote control, which, although easy to use, lacks direct-access buttons for rotating or zooming during photo playback. All in all, the review gives a fairly negative round-up of the Yamaha’s performance. One reviewer summarised: “This is a great Blu-ray player, but that’s not enough these days. The only obvious reason to buy it is if you’re hanging on to an older AV receiver and need a 7.1-channel analogue output. Even then, there are better, cheaper players out there than can do the same as the Yamaha.”

Avasar Banquet Hall – A star grader banquet hall in Mumbai

January 30, 2010 By: gauravorion Category: Advertising No Comments →

Avasar Banquet Hall
Like everything, the interior designing trends has also evolved and has now halted to a contemporary with straight lined interior jobs. The ‘minimalistic’ approach towards the interiors today has changed the taste of the customer from the curved traditional to the world class straight lined ‘Studio Format’.
The Avasar Banquet Hall done up by Ketan Sheth- MD, Goldmine Project Consultant is an apt example of the latest studio format in the commercial spaces.
Area & Location
Situated at Grant Road Mumbai, Avasar banquet hall has an area of over 8000 sqfts and a capacity to hold over 1000 people at an event.
Type and Target group:-
The project is a commercial – Banquet Hall and designed for functions like corporate products previews, parties, weddings, Get-togethers, conferences, birthday parties, seminars etc
Interior Creatives
The interior creatives of Avasar Banquet Hall are done as per the latest ‘Cotemporary Studio Format’ that involves the simple and minimal yet stylish jobs at large. Prior to the interior makeover the space was an old hall and thus it was quite challenging for Ketan Sheth to make it new-fangled without any major structural changes. To give a rich look to the entrance, ACP (Aluminum Composite Panel) combined with thick glass is used as it would give an inside look to the guests standing outside. Along with fine looks ACP brings along a lot of other benefits-of-use as it is durable and is easy to clean.
Still preferred by many the wall colours have now revolutionized to pastel colors like white, muted pink and off-white as they give a calm and spacious appearance to the rooms, other than its retrograde cousins like whole greens and blues that actually make the room appear tight. At Avasar colors like beige and orange has been used that give the hall a fine, rich and an up to date look. The flooring too has beige colored tiles that in accordance with the wall colors make the space look large and wide. Special spacers with grouting have been installed in between tiles to avoid cracks due to expansion and contraction. Since the property is situated near to the railway station, proper spacing between the tiles have been done to take in the floor vibrations. Also the acoustics of the Banquet hall is designed with special sound absorber inbuilt fabrics in the walls that take up the sounds and echoes.

In view of the fact that the vertical height of Avasar Banquet hall is almost 16 feet, fancy decorative lights have been used all over along with a big alabaster chandelier is in the centre to give brightness. Frosted/ textured mirrors have been also installed for light management. A large mirror or several small mirrors placed strategically can make a small space feel lighter and larger. For a more modern style of decorating, furniture and tables with metal or glass can visually expand the space. The Banquet hall also has a dining area with fine tiling and equipments for cooking & serving purpose where several sections have been made spaciously in the kitchen for like washing, Gas cooking, cutting and chopping etc. For Durability Stainless steel is used all over the kitchen which is also hygienic and is easy to clean & rust free. The ambience of the hall is almost similar to a four star hotel.
Though the interior creative consultants get freedom to experiment and explore with the space , the designs and interior creatives majorly depend on the individual taste and ultimately you should be happy with the choices made.

Non Surgical Herniated Disc Treatment

January 30, 2010 By: hqbk Category: Health/Medical/Fitness No Comments →

Herniated disc can occur anywhere in the spine. Back pain is the most common symptom of a herniated disc. The treatment option for a herniated disc is chosen, depending on the nature of the patient’s pain and presenting symptoms. In most cases, the doctors opt to treat herniated disc in a non-surgical way.

In medical terminology, many terms are used such as bulging disc, pinched nerve, slipped disc or ruptured disc to describe herniated disc. Spine damage caused by disease, injury or normal wear and tear can lead to herniated disc. Herniated disc condition is the result of inflammation of the disc material caused by aging and compression on the nerve system.

At present, non-surgical herniated disc treatment is widely practiced since it offers positive results for patients with herniated disc. This non-invasive mode of treatment is intended to bring you back to your day-to-day activities by getting rid of the pain and other symptoms that have developed from the herniated disc. Use non-surgical herniated disc treatment to lift the pressure on the nerve roots. This treatment plan is not applicable for patients of all age groups. A combination of different non-surgical herniated disc treatment options is available, and this procedure works best and provides long term relief. Try non-surgical herniated disc treatment plan, which includes:

• A short period of bed rest as part of the treatment plan, followed by a gradual increase in activity
• Physical therapy and exercise program recommended by physical therapists/health professionals to promote circulation, strengthen and relax the muscles
• Medication to control inflammation and pain

Patients with herniated disc disease are relieved from their painful condition after undergoing non-surgical herniated disc treatment program for 6 or 7 weeks. Non surgical herniated disc treatment is economical and provides instant relief from herniated disc problems. As per the nature of the case, the treatment frequency varies. So it is generally suggested by professionals to restore normal movement and function.

Next Day Funding Merchant Service To Include American Express Transactions

January 30, 2010 By: michelle2010 Category: Insurance No Comments →

PaymentMax Announces The Addition Of AMEX Payment Processing To Their Lineup Of Merchant Services

Thousand Oaks, CA  – The payment processing company PaymentMax has announced that they will now begin offering credit card processing services for American Express cards as part of their range of merchant services. Perhaps best known among small and medium businesses as a provider of payment processing services that offers next day funding on credit card transactions, PaymentMax now boasts this new feature which has already made their services a bigger hit with business owners concerned about maintaining continuous cash flow. With the announcement of American Express transaction processing, it seems likely that not only will a larger number of merchants begin accepting the card, but that businesses using PaymentMax’s services will benefit even more now in turn.

AMEX users are a very desirable demographic, being more affluent on average than the typical consumer, with many larger companies choosing American Express for their business accounts; clearly, the ability to accept this card is something every business owner wants. However, the comparatively high cost of processing these transactions has acted as a barrier to many who would otherwise be glad to accept American Express. The growth of PaymentMax as a merchant services firm has enabled the company to successfully negotiate transaction fees for the card which are affordable to its customer base of small to mid-sized merchant clients, a development which has stirred excitement among current clients and business owners looking for a merchant services provider.

“We’re absolutely thrilled to make this announcement,” said Tony Shap, a PaymentMax merchant services representative of today’s announcement. “American Express is a card which a lot of merchants are unable to accept due to circumstances beyond their control and through our arrangement with AMEX, we’re able to offer American Express payment processing to our customers – it’s something which is obviously going to work out well for everyone involved: American Express, PaymentMax, our merchant services customers and ultimately, consumers who will now find themselves with more payment options at businesses nationwide. It’s not too often you run across a truly win-win situation, so to say that we’re excited to have been able to create one for our customers is definitely an understatement.”

PaymentMax has told the merchants they work with that their new AMEX processing services will include the same next day funding as the company provides for all other credit card transactions. There have been those who have said that the only thing PaymentMax lacked was American Express services; and now that this option has arrived, it may not be long before you start seeing AMEX logos at retailers and on websites a little more often than you do today.
Take the Virtual Tour of PaymentMax.
